When you meditate with an enlightened teacher, you will feel something from them. They just dissolve completely, absorption in nirvana, where they don't even have physical contact with this world anymore.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Zen is discipline - the discipline of living life, the discipline of taking a breath, the discipline of not knowing and not trying to know.
Frederick Lenz
The life of meditation and religious study is absolutely no guarantee of peak moments. Most people involved in religious study and meditation are downright bored, and they're as stuck in what they do as everyone else is.
Frederick Lenz
For men, it's necessary to push aside that marvelous ego that tells you that you are all knowing and capable, and see that you are not.
Frederick Lenz
Beyond the subtle body we have something called the causal body that's more what we are. We are a series of interconnecting awarenesses. It's like a molecular bond, DNA, a double-helix, and we can change that.
Frederick Lenz
In self-giving you must be so careful of egotism. You must be so careful when you are aiding others in their liberation not to have a sense of self.
Frederick Lenz
You must control your anger and jealousy and possessive nature or, as you become more powerful and your will increases in strength, you will injure others.
Frederick Lenz
Buddhism is the study of the way the mind works. One has to be able to hold a large number of relational concepts simultaneously in the mind. It is necessary to grid, to literally unlock realities and dimensions with the power of your mind.
Frederick Lenz
There's no risk in doing a lousy meditation or not meditating at all. There's no risk in being convenient and comfortable. There's a lot of risk in the world of enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
Then we see that the same God is within ourselves.
Frederick Lenz
Even though it's not perceivable to the mind or senses, it's there and enlightenment is absolute freedom.
Frederick Lenz
There's this cave and all humanity is in it and there's this terribly bright light at the other end and everybody's afraid of it.
Frederick Lenz
What the teacher does is sweep all of the logic, order and reason onto one side and make that side very strong.
Frederick Lenz
Success will come about because you are in a higher state of mind. If you create good karma, then you will go into higher states of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Time is not a movement in space. Space is a movement in time.
Frederick Lenz
The self plays among the waves of existence. It surfaces, it comes up for a while, and then it disappears again.
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
A teacher is really invaluable. A teacher will instruct you in how to stabilize your energy field, increase it, and decrease the loss of energy in your life and how to be balanced, wise, and funny.
Frederick Lenz
The world is empty - all of the people and places, the earth, the seas, mountains, deserts, forests and cities, and the beings that inhabit them, are unchangeable.
Frederick Lenz
The ego is a false perception of self. It's an idea, a transitory identity that we've picked up.
Frederick Lenz
Don't try to hold people to you, don't try to push them away. Let life do everything for you. This is the proper attitude on the path of love.
