More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Energy is food. Most people on earth feed on each other's energy, all of the time, seven days a week. The more energy you have, the more interested parties there will be in having lunch.
Frederick Lenz
There is no self, yet we all exist. All phenomena are empty, yet they have Buddha nature.
Frederick Lenz
Work sustains us as bodies and it consumes a great deal of energy. The conservation of energy is the component theme of Buddhist practice and yoga. That is why people live in monasteries.
Frederick Lenz
Nirvana is the pure and perfect schness of thatness of being.
Frederick Lenz
Buddhism is yoga. Yoga started, who knows when? A long time ago, when the first person found that they could still their thoughts and experience eternity and access the higher planes of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Everything is subtle. Everything has a million sides. Everything is a manifestation of god. Everything is light. All beings are infinite. All things are perfect, in their own way.
Frederick Lenz
If you're a sniveler, a whiner, a complainer, you will never be happy. We all have that side. Get a little stoical and just take the pain.
Frederick Lenz
Tantra is for a person who has reached a point in their spiritual evolution where everything looks the same.
Frederick Lenz
We can't say what enlightenment is, we can't say what it isn't, because these are words and words have nothing to do with reality.
Frederick Lenz
To assume that wealth or sexuality or the usage of power, any of these things are not void in nature, gives them a reality they don't actually have.
Frederick Lenz
At times of extreme intensity, the kundalini can become active. Suddenly a 70-year old lady, who can't lift a bag of prunes, will lift an automobile a few inches because her grandchild got stuck under it.
Frederick Lenz
The stars in the sky last for billions of years. That's nothing to the mind, nothing. It's an instant, a millisecond. The mind shines radiantly forever. But we don't see the shine because of the clutter.
Frederick Lenz
The most successful way to combat these dark clouds that come between the light of you and that which you love, is to feel that love itself will rescue you.
Frederick Lenz
I entered a spiritual community when I was 20, which I was in for 11 year, with very strict meditative practices, with an Eastern teacher. It was very much like a religious order.
Frederick Lenz
You did something noble. This will cause a release of energy. It causes a vibratory shift. It means you are moving into a different plateau of consciousness.
Frederick Lenz
For most people the prohibitions are a good thing. But If you are able to maintain very powerful states of mind, then you'll find yourself in everything you see.
Frederick Lenz
It is not advisable for persons who are in the early stages of meditation to mediate on the two lower chakras. You will unleash powers and forces that will throw you into very powerful altered state of consciousness that might not be pleasant at all.
Frederick Lenz
Honestly admitting what you lost and not trying to rationalize it or push it off is an important step in self-assessment and mindfulness.
Frederick Lenz
You work many hours. It is the major activity of your life. You can lose a lot of energy or gain a lot of energy from it. Put your full attention into it and do a good job, because it is part of your impeccability.
Frederick Lenz
We pass through hundreds, thousands, perhaps millions of existences. In each lifetime, we're exploring another part of our own self, which is eternity.
