You'll notice all around the Hindu temples couples, statues and drawings, in various erotic forms of love-making.

Frederick Lenz
Image
Become conscious of what you think during the day. A negative thought will enter you. At first it will be vague, innocuous, but then it will root in your consciousness and soon it will be impossible to eradicate.
Frederick Lenz

The real problem is not increasing your energy. The problem is losing it. If you stop the loss and you simply meditate, you will have more than enough energy. You will learn to live strategically.

Happiness only comes when you let go of who you think you are. If you think you're wealthy and powerful and noble and truthful or horrible and demonic, whatever it may be, it's all a waste of time. Take it from the Zen Master. He knows.
Frederick Lenz

For most people this is not a conscious process, it's an inner pull that takes place, that simply draws them there.

Image
You're not capable of stepping into nirvana at this time. If you did it would be disastrous. You're tonal would be swamped.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You need to accept the fact that you will often do exactly the opposite of what you think is right. You need to accept that you're going to do that and still love yourself.

The ten thousand states of mind that we talk about in Zen are all levels of perception. You can think of each of the ten thousand states of mind as a dimensional plane.
