More quotes by Frederick Lenz
The wheel goes round and round and round forever. Pleasure, pain, birth and death, lifetime after lifetime, it is endless. All sentient beings experience this, the endless dance of life, the lila.
Frederick Lenz
You are not a body. You are not a mind. You are infinite light, infinite intelligence, the radiance of all beings, the dharmakaya - the endless light of creation.
Frederick Lenz
There's a power that brings us to things, and there's a power that lets us move away from things, from people, places, experiences. And what you learn to do in metaphysics is accept.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
The types of thoughts that you think create a state of mind. The reason you think the thoughts you do results from your level of power.
Frederick Lenz
It's unfortunate that we see a great many women settling. They think that simply because they have gotten the right to vote, own property and have gained some simple freedoms that the battle for women's suffrage is over.
Frederick Lenz
Within the human frequency of perception, what you see is what you get. I would classify the bottom of the band as severe unhappiness, depression and alimentation.
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
Whenever we just try to please ourselves, all we do is cover up another window in the little house we're stuck in.
Frederick Lenz
The way advanced meditation is taught, the way I teach it, the way all enlightened people teach it, is through transference. We transfer light and power to someone else.
Frederick Lenz
Avoiding things that drain you is more important than gaining energy.
Frederick Lenz
