More quotes by Frederick Lenz
A lot of people trash their subtle physical body with psychedelic drugs. While they do certainly give you experiences in altered levels of attention, you pay a price for it. They definitely screw up the subtle physical. Hatha Yoga can be good for that.
Frederick Lenz
We live inside too much. We live inside and we have square thoughts and square ideas because we live in square houses. Our lives are colored by our environments. Our attention fields are colored by it.
Frederick Lenz
The ten thousand states of mind that we talk about in Zen are all levels of perception. You can think of each of the ten thousand states of mind as a dimensional plane.
Frederick Lenz
I think to be in a monastery or an ashram is not always the answer because we don't fight, we kick back. We don't listen to Sri Krishna.
Frederick Lenz
Some of the films that I have really enjoyed include: The Fifth Element, The Crow, Toys, Seven, Forrest Gump, The Lion King, 12 Monkeys, Doctor Zhivago, Being There, and Trainspotting.

It is necessary to do a very thorough examination of your life and to discover whether the people in your life, no matter how much you love them, are using you or abusing you.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
There is a beautiful flow to the study of Zen. If it is not making you happier, then you are not practicing correctly.

A student of mine is an actor, he used to go into these interviews and sometimes not get the part. He was taken out. Someone would use power in a way that would cause him not to succeed
Frederick Lenz
In the Far East, a peasant has no problem that someone can be born from another universe into a human body, walk up to their hut one day and ask for something to eat and transport them into infinite galaxies of awareness.
Frederick Lenz
Meditation is coming back to your original self, if we can use self without a sense of self. It's perfect, clear light, radiant, infinite mind of the universe, as it is, without identifying with qualities
Frederick Lenz
The male establishment power structure has not really changed its attitude towards women. They did not give these rights to women out of kindness. These rights were fought for by many highly evolved women who cared about the lives of their daughters and granddaughters.
Frederick Lenz
Chakras are mystical energy centers that exist within the human aura. Tremendous occult power resides in a person's chakras. Siddha masters draw upon that power during meditation, store it within themselves, and later use it to perform miracles.
Frederick Lenz
The path of love has many opponents - fear, self-pity, anxiety, hate, lust, greed, avarice - all the usual freinds.
Frederick Lenz
Our failure to see and access the pure joy and radiance of life is owning to a lack of awareness. In any situation there is beauty. Even at the moment of one's death there is beauty.
Frederick Lenz
We walk upon the grace of god. Nothing else exists except that.
Frederick Lenz
You might wish to try Kali's mantra. Kali is another celestial being. She offers very fast spiritual progress through intensity. Her mantra is Kring! When you chant Kring, chant it very intensely and sharply. Only chant Kring when you are in a high meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Often, in the student's confusion, she or he directs anger at the teacher, blaming them for the pain they are experiencing, or for their own mistakes.
Frederick Lenz
An imbalanced association is when one or both parties become abusive and takes unfair advantage, tries to block another's enlightenment or success.
Frederick Lenz
Love comes from ourselves, not from someone else.
