More quotes by Frederick Lenz
You have to be courageous in life to allow a lightness to engage your being. It is easy to be a jerk. To be unhappy with all this weird stuff around us just seems to me to be such a waste. That's a jerk.
Frederick Lenz
Meditation is the quickest path to enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
When you meditate you feel joy, harmony, peace, stillness, ecstasy, laughter, certainty, courage, strength, awareness and immortality. In the beginning you will feel these things vaguely, a distant knocking at your castle door.
Frederick Lenz
The human mind and the entire life process is chaotic. Chaos is not something that lacks order chaos has varieties of order within it.
Frederick Lenz
Of the four major pathways to self-realization, jnana yoga, from the point of view of the beginner, is the most difficult.
Frederick Lenz
What these people do here is obviously not working. They sit in their commuter traffic hour after hour. They make the earth a toxic waste dump.
Frederick Lenz
People think they can tame the earth. How absurd! The vanity of human wishes is endless. It is more fun to dance with life.
Frederick Lenz
It's either good, bad or somewhere in between. It's either ying, yang or it's a combination. You're either male, female or somewhere in between. You've got to be somewhere on the map.
Frederick Lenz
Love comes from ourselves, not from someone else.
Frederick Lenz
Once in a while an enlightened teacher goes out into the world and spreads the dharma. They attract some attention, and it is a great spectacle to see who and why and what is drawn.
Frederick Lenz
In Old Zen, the Zen Master would do literally anything to break down the concept of what the study was. He would present conflicting codes all the time, just to shake this fixation people had on how to attain liberation.
Frederick Lenz
At times of extreme intensity, the kundalini can become active. Suddenly a 70-year old lady, who can't lift a bag of prunes, will lift an automobile a few inches because her grandchild got stuck under it.
Frederick Lenz
As you engage your mind in the scriptures, your mind will become pure.
Frederick Lenz
Death is simply a change in perception. It is not an end to perception as a finite being.
Frederick Lenz
A real liberated teacher never asks for a commitment from a student. That's absurd, a person wants to be there and they want to learn everything they can.
Frederick Lenz
You are a being of light composed of cells of light joined together in a matrix.
Frederick Lenz
The spirit seeks the spirit just as matter seeks matter.
Frederick Lenz
Karma exists within causality. It is three-dimensional. Free will exists outside of causality it is not bound by karma.
Frederick Lenz
You draw the mystical kundalini from the earth. Earth is an element. Fire, air, earth, water, and ether - the mystical kundalini comes through them all.
Frederick Lenz
If you are going to focus on a teacher, you have to be focused on the teacher and not peripheral vibrations that might be around them or it will totally screw up your meditation.
Frederick Lenz
