More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Your states of mind do not occur randomly. They occur because of vibratory and karmic patterns.
Frederick Lenz
When you see deterioration in the skin or the hair, you are having problems with the subtle body. You're taking in too much bad energy, usually from people, or you're thinking too many negative thoughts. You are pulling an energy that is not suitable for the human form.
Frederick Lenz
In Buddhism we meditate. We make our minds quiet by learning to focus on the chakras, release internal energy that we call kundalini, and bring ourselves into high states of consciousness.
Frederick Lenz
Enlightenment is really worth seeking. It is the only thing that gives you permanent happiness. When you experience the ecstasy of enlightenment, everything is alright.
Frederick Lenz
Now, stopping thought is only the beginning. As Brahmananda, who was a disciple of Sri Ramakrishna, once remarked: The inner life begins with samadhi. This is an awesome thought, I realize, for the average person who meditates, that it could begin with samadhi.
Frederick Lenz
Selfless giving reminds us that there is an eternally present spirit in all of us, that when revealed, liberates us from both the transitory and the eternal - both of which ultimatly can be attachments.
Frederick Lenz
Even though it's not perceivable to the mind or senses, it's there and enlightenment is absolute freedom.
Frederick Lenz
Humility is the most important quality in the spiritual life. When it is lacking spiritual growth stops.
Frederick Lenz
I think I've learned more from women than anyone else, and perhaps from love. What a wonderful testing ground.
Frederick Lenz
Time is a convenient filing system human beings have devised to segregate their experiences.
Frederick Lenz
The vast majority of beings who incarnate on this planet are at the stage of their evolution where power is the dominant theme. They are learning about power. That is why we live in a world where there are so many wars and so much destruction.
Frederick Lenz
The enlightenment experience is not what you think. How could it be anything that you can configure, anything you can imagine, any way that you think it should be?
Frederick Lenz
Life is wonder, endless, ceaseless wonder. If your energy level is low, then everything is gray, two-dimensional, boring, frustrating, and unhappy.
Frederick Lenz
For a person who lives in time, differences are the most important thing because they represent your existence.
Frederick Lenz
In the Bhagavad-Gita, a dialogue ensues in the middle of a battlefield, symbolizing the battlefield of life which we are fighting through our illusions.
Frederick Lenz
If you can't feel grateful, if you're discouraged or depressed, then think of the fact that things could be a lot worse than they are.
Frederick Lenz
The practice of mindfulness is monitoring your mind all day and all night. It's enjoyable to just remove things that make you unhappy from your mind, to clarify your emotions.
Frederick Lenz
Nirvana is the other side, the source of all things, where all the aggregates come from, where the templates of infinity are.
Frederick Lenz
Happiness is found principally in meditation. Let your mind flow out into eternity. You have to exert some effort. Then you will notice a subtle smile on your face.
Frederick Lenz
For some reason, the women in my life have always been extremely powerful. I've learned a great deal from that. I've learned that we're all women when we're complete and we're all men.
