Image
Everything depends on your state of awareness. If your state of awareness is low, then all the material success in the world won't help.

Image
All souls do not reach enlightenment. Some souls reach a certain point and stay there. Some souls actually decline and go into different cycles.

When you go into samadhi, either salvikalpa or nirvikalpa, what happens is you erase, you loosen, the aggregates. You simplify them.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There is something to this fabric of life that is beautiful. If you find the world unpleasant, I don't think that is wisdom. That is a sign of a lack of wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The problem is with any practice is that it is a practice. That is why people don't win. The reason why people don't win is they get stuck in ideas, habits, and ways of seeing life.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Chaos is not disorder. Chaos is the totality of existence. You could call it God. You could use the term, the Tao. I like chaos. It means more to us in English. Chaos is all things, wild and wonderful, connected perfectly by the life force.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I took the liberty in Snowboarding to Nirvana to do a type of parody of what I suppose you would call New Age fiction.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Selfless giving means forgeting about yourself. It means letting go and doing something crazy.

Image
Suffering follows the lack of wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The earth is not the same everywhere. Certain powers are available in one part of the earth that are not available in another part. The rich realize this. They live in these places and they use that power to stay rich.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Some people say: There is no God because, if there was a God, God would stop all the suffering. Nonsense! God is oblivious to suffering. God is beyond suffering. That's what makes God, God, by definition.
