Women do not help each other attain enlightenment because in the description of the world they've been given, unlike that of men, it's every woman for herself in order to survive.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
I realized after being married for some time that it wasn't enough. It wasn't enough to lead an individual life where I loved on person and we created a world together.
Frederick Lenz
Care, but don't be pushy! Don't preach about enlightenment to people who don't really want to hear about it.
Frederick Lenz
When you draw from the endless awareness of nirvana, you are no longer a slave to fortune. When pleasant experiences come your way, you can enjoy them. But if pain and misfortune befall you, you can rise above them and remain unaffected.
Frederick Lenz
Fulfillment of desire taken to extremes doesn't necessarily make us happy. It tends to make us rather cynical.
Frederick Lenz
Get some distance on yourself and undertand the multilevel structure that's operating. There's a power structure within you. You're a very political creature.
Frederick Lenz
Perhaps you're not the next Buddha. Perhaps you're not the Maitreya. Perhaps that's not your job in this incarnation. Perhaps you have to enjoy life and learn about life through whatever way that you find yourself going.
Frederick Lenz
Reality is not the world as you perceive it. Reality is the world perceived through enlightenment. It's the same world but it's not the same world.
Frederick Lenz
The theory of Zen is non-competition. But that is not really true at all. People who practice Zen are very competitive. They are competing against emptiness.
Frederick Lenz
Once you've done that, push the thought of no thought away.
Frederick Lenz
Your states of mind do not occur randomly. They occur because of vibratory and karmic patterns.
Frederick Lenz
In lower levels things are dark, gray, experiences are shallow. You become alienated from those around you.
Frederick Lenz
You can focus on me or on any spiritual teacher. Spiritual teachers who have left the body, who are no longer on earth can help you too. When I leave the body someday, I can help people just as effectively if they focus upon me.
Frederick Lenz
You could sit around and feel sorry for yourself or you can go out and do things for others.
Frederick Lenz
People who are humble don't talk too much they listen.
Frederick Lenz
A teacher can show you the ways. But no one can do it for you. You have to take what you learn from them and go out and live it. You have to change your life.
Frederick Lenz
There is no such thing as completion. These are only stages in an endless progression. There are no final outcomes or decisions, since nothing ever stays the same.
Frederick Lenz
Inwardly the sun also has an energy field, it has an aura, so does the earth, so does the moon, and so do all the planets. We're affected by those auras. It's not something that you really want to reason out.
Frederick Lenz
Most of the software I sell runs on mainframes and supercomputers, and is used by multinational corporations and governments. You may not get to see that, but if I have done it properly, hopefully it will make the events in your life transpire more smoothly.
Frederick Lenz
We try to fulfill ourselves, even though our inner voice tells us to become all that we are - still, we run from it.
Frederick Lenz
The purpose of all of this is not to walk around with new vocabulary words, but to cause you to speculate on the marvel of your own being.
