More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Spiritual balance is the ability to remain happy, to not be hostile to your neighbor when they are being hostile, and not to get caught up in the trivia.
Frederick Lenz
Happiness is a state of mind. The key to happiness is being able to disconnect your life from your perceptions. If you saw things as they really were, you would be happy automatically.
Frederick Lenz
There is this school of thought that says the usage of all mystical and occult powers is bad. I find that thought is usually propounded by people who don't have any powers. It's kind of a sour grapes attitude.
Frederick Lenz
We can't allow ouselves to be depresses or discouraged. There are people who depend on us, things to accomplish. We only have a little bit of time in this world before death swallows us up.
Frederick Lenz
We sit here on the oasis of human consciousness and the verbal plane trying to talk about something that we just have to go and see and do and feel.
Frederick Lenz
The sights of infinity can be too strong. They can scorch the soul. It's best to take infinity on a little at a time.
Frederick Lenz
Personal power is a feeling that everybody is looking for called satisfaction. It is different from enlightenment, but you need personal power to become enlightened. Personal power is not the end of the process.
Frederick Lenz
The world glows all the time. All of the things that you have come to understand aren't. The greatest thinkers in the world see very little compared to the enlightened.
Frederick Lenz
Interestingly enough, Aurthur C. Clarke once autographed a copy of his book Rendezvous with Rama for me.
Frederick Lenz
Anything but enlightenment is pure pain it is the lack of enlightenment. There are joys, of course, and they should be enjoyed. There are sorrows, and they should be passed over briefly.
Frederick Lenz
Transmission does not have to take place physically. The student doesn't have to be sitting across from you. But it's easier if they are because the vibration of the teacher is strongest in the physical proximity of the teacher.
Frederick Lenz
It is only when you have become that true Self consciously, when all these illusions have fallen away, that you will be perfectly free and perfectly happy.
Frederick Lenz
When the time comes for a change, you will find it occurring without having created it yourself. You may think that you are the doer and that you are creating the change. That's nonsense.
Frederick Lenz
The spirit longs for the world of light from which it came. That longing causes something to happen. It causes the being to grow into light.
Frederick Lenz
What we seek to do in Tantric Buddhism is to liquefy ourselves. Life will automatically bring us to the next stage. You don't really have to know where you're going - It's like breathing.
Frederick Lenz
Many souls thrive on the life force of others and you are lunch!
Frederick Lenz
I don't really have a problem with the pain of life. Perhaps that is because I am a martial artist and I am used to dealing with pain. Or perhaps I adjusted to pain because there has been a great deal of it in my life.
Frederick Lenz
As an incarnation of love you put up with flack until it becomes detrimental to a person.
Frederick Lenz
What we focus on we become. If you are just focusing on unhappy things, you will become unhappy. If you focus on happy states of mind, then it will grow in you.
Frederick Lenz
What does God really look like stripped naked? That's the province of enlightenment...the formless, perfect face of existence.
