True teachers of enlightenment are hard to find. The popular ones, of course, usually aren't enlightened because how could they be? They just tell people what they want to hear.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
It's not my light to begin with, in a sense it's the light of God, the light of eternity. So take all you want!
Frederick Lenz
Know that life, which does everything perfectly, is now moving you in a new direction. The chess piece of your existence is being moved to a new square on the board of life.
Frederick Lenz
Illusions are shadows moving endlessly across the ground. The shadows are quite real but they're shadows. They have very little substance.
Frederick Lenz
We're blind, deaf and dumb. It is only that Self, which is our life force that makes who and what we are. The realization of that is self-realization.
Frederick Lenz
Once you are enlightened, you can do whatever you want without fear or sorrow. You can go snowboarding, get married, stay single, be rich and famous, or live unknown in a high Himalayan cave. It is up to you.
Frederick Lenz
When we practice mindfulness, our nonphysical side merges with the nonphysical side of that which we are experiencing.
Frederick Lenz
It will take about a month for that awareness to be fully absorbed and modify someone's attention field. During that period of time, a person who studies with me will meditate on their own, and apply those things that they have learned to their daily lives.
Frederick Lenz
A teacher is not someone you need perpetually. You need them to show you how to get through the doorway but once you get through the doorway, you are on your own.
Frederick Lenz
You draw the mystical kundalini from the earth. Earth is an element. Fire, air, earth, water, and ether - the mystical kundalini comes through them all.
Frederick Lenz
Even though it's not perceivable to the mind or senses, it's there and enlightenment is absolute freedom.
Frederick Lenz
Zazen's music is composed in other dimensions and it is played by some of my students. I go through the music they have played with my aura and wash out anything impure.
Frederick Lenz
Love can be the only answer. But snowboarding also works for me. Because I love snowboarding!
Frederick Lenz
Meditate upon all the perfect light within your own mind! Do this repeatedly and the radiant Bodhisattvas of Wisdom and Laughter will visit you and change your karma forever!
Frederick Lenz
What these people do here is obviously not working. They sit in their commuter traffic hour after hour. They make the earth a toxic waste dump.
Frederick Lenz
As you meditate, you'll develop a sense of humor so that you can laugh at yourself, which you need to do in this world.
Frederick Lenz
You are a stranger in a strange land. As an evolved person living in a relatively unevolved world, you are constantly subjected to a bombardment of seemingly endless negative vibrations emanating from those around you.
Frederick Lenz
Power is everywhere when you can see it and find it. It is nowhere when you can't.
Frederick Lenz
All souls do not reach enlightenment. Some souls reach a certain point and stay there. Some souls actually decline and go into different cycles.
Frederick Lenz
Certain drugs provide brief excursions into altered states of consciousness. The problem is that the perceptions and understandings that come from these experiences don't tend to last.
Frederick Lenz
Zen is meditation, the actual experience of life directly, immediately with no buffers.
Frederick Lenz
