More quotes by Frederick Lenz
There are phony teachers who profess all kinds of things, and I think you will figure out real fast who they are. They just don't feel right.
Frederick Lenz
They reach the point where they feel, I can go into samadhi now. I can do everything on my own, and that's exactly where they stay, in the lower samadhis. There are many, many people on this earth who can go into salvakalpa samadhi.
Frederick Lenz
We can think of descriptions almost as computer languages, an operative description that only deals with very simple operations. Its code is sex - Male, female, dark, light, up down, in out - its the language of duality.
Frederick Lenz
It's amazing to me how many people who profess to be spiritual seekers are self-seekers, and how few of them ever consider God.
Frederick Lenz
Love yourself even when you don't measure up to your own expectations. You have a certain idea of what you should do and what you should be - it's only a silly idea that passes through your mind.
Frederick Lenz
There is something beyond power. The totality of one's being. Some call it nirvana. We have a higher destiny. Before you can scratch the surface, you have to bring your life into order.
Frederick Lenz
To the great pharaohs it mattered a great deal to bury their treasures in the pyramids, which they thought they would bring to the other worlds. But obviously it doesn't matter to them now. They went, the goods stayed.
Frederick Lenz
Imagine for a moment that you were God. Not God as a man or woman, but God as the awareness of all life. To be that in physical form is to be an enlightened person.
Frederick Lenz
Who are these human beings anyway? They walk around, strut, fret, as if they owned the planet, or the goddamned universe. I mean, who do they really think they are?
Frederick Lenz
Lao Tsu always points a finger directly to us. He says we must begin with ourselves. It's impossible to bring order into the world unless we bring order into ourselves.
Frederick Lenz
The training was rigorous, hundreds and thousands of hours of meditation, self-giving. But it was easy. I loved it. I would merge again and again with the superconscious in meditation.
Frederick Lenz
As a student of enlightenment your attitude should not be to become enlightened. It should be to learn.
Frederick Lenz
The universe is perfection. But there are different views that universe provides for itself to view itself. Beyond all views there is nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
When you meditate you can stand back from your desire. When you silence the mind and there is stillness, only then can you tell if a desire is dharma.
Frederick Lenz
You will have to put aside some things in your life, habits, ideas, ways of seeing life. You will have to learn new things, and then new things and then new things - forever.
Frederick Lenz
Molecules are moving. Universes are colliding. Generations are being born and dying simultaneously, throughout eternity. As one of our great American poets, Walt Whitman, once said: I contain multitudes.
Frederick Lenz
God is limitless awareness. There, now I have told you everything I know about God ... a lot of good it did you.
Frederick Lenz
There is no such thing as completion. These are only stages in an endless progression. There are no final outcomes or decisions, since nothing ever stays the same.
Frederick Lenz
There are people who will think of you in negative ways. You will feel it sometimes. It can actually be physically painful if they're somewhat powerful. You simply have to remove yourself inwardly from these individuals.
Frederick Lenz
What is enlightenment, anyway? I don't know if I can really put it into words, perhaps you can. I can't.
