Sex is life: The act of creation in pleasure, the loss of oneself in another, the coming together of opposites in a temporary union of yin and yang, that creates something other than either. What is life if not this?
Frederick Lenz

Someone else would come, another self that was a little more refined, that had a little more purity, a little more humility, because I was quite egotistical, I thought I was quite wonderful.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The absorption in nirvana is all that matters. All the strategies of your life are only there to empower you for your final assault on the impenetrable cliffs of forever.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You can be alone too in the city streets, among the crowds. We are all alone.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When the world stops, time stops.
Frederick Lenz

Karma indicates action, but not necessarily physical action nor is karma a result in the sense of a reward.

The quieter you can make your mind, the more you've invoked your will.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Are you still carrying everyone who's insulted you, injured you or interfered with you? That's a lot of weight. I'd let it go, personally, and just move on and forget. Be in the moment. Don't even notice.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We need to preserve these sacred locations for ourselves, for the species of plants and animals that coexist in harmony there, and for the future generations of humankind that will need to be refreshed, renewed and healed by them.
