It's up to you to avail yourself to knowledge. Knowledge doesn't need you. The idea of a compassionate God was formulated, obviously, by someone who didn't want to do any work.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Many people, including Buddhist monks, spend thousands of hours sitting in what they call meditation. In reality, what they're doing is thinking and ruminating upon their problems.
Frederick Lenz
It is important to have a certain amount of solitude just to clear your circuits. You will find that you can be very happy just being by yourself. Go to new places. It will cleanse your spirit.
Frederick Lenz
The inner aspects of reincarnation have to do with where you put your mind. The more expansive state of mind you enter into, the less suffering there is.
Frederick Lenz
The Divide is like two rivers merging, at the point of merging there is a great deal of activity. The sunset, it's neither dark nor light, and the sunrises are the moments of transition.
Frederick Lenz
Karma exists within causality. It is three-dimensional. Free will exists outside of causality it is not bound by karma.
Frederick Lenz
Certain drugs provide brief excursions into altered states of consciousness. The problem is that the perceptions and understandings that come from these experiences don't tend to last.
Frederick Lenz
Free will exists within each of us. Most people choose not to use their free will, so consequently they rarely alter their karmic patterns.
Frederick Lenz
To be enlightened means that you really don't change, and yet you're nothing but change.
Frederick Lenz
Know that life, which does everything perfectly, is now moving you in a new direction. The chess piece of your existence is being moved to a new square on the board of life.
Frederick Lenz
If you are having problems with money, the answer isn't cutting back. The answer is to make more money.
Frederick Lenz
Enlightenment is the culmination of self-knowledge, pure unadulterated knowledge. Not knowledge you can get from reading a book, it comes from perfecting your awareness, your mind.
Frederick Lenz
Suffering follows the lack of wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
If you have power, you might be able to heal a person. You could actually get inside their cell structures and create a change.
Frederick Lenz
Power either goes up or down. Your thoughts are the harness of power. It is necessary to think positive thoughts, not just wait for them to occur, but to introduce them.
Frederick Lenz
When I talk about the realm of spirit, happiness, nirvana, enlightenment, I'm not talking about something ideal or imaginary. There are realms of light that exist, that have always existed and will always exist. They're much more solid than the transient perceived reality that you're currently experiencing
Frederick Lenz
There is a way beyond this life and beyond death, the path of liberation. In order to be liberated, you have to enter into the world of advanced meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Transform yourself. It is not the opponent that will change, or the Frisbee. They will change in relation to your change. You must change.
Frederick Lenz
Buddhism is simply a methodology, a way of becoming one with the part of ourselves that is happy.
Frederick Lenz
A better name for nirvana might be endless love. Love not even in the sense that we see it if we're watching the romantic movie, but love in a sense of no absence.
Frederick Lenz
To become conscious of God, to become God's consciousness, to become God, to be God and to be beyond God, God being beyond God, God having an existence separate from the creation, to be that, to merge with that, to lose one's self and find one's self endlessly again and again in that is self-realization.
