More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Originally, I was interested in athletic pursuits like snowboarding, martial arts and surfing. When I went to the Himalayas and met a number of Buddhist monks I was introduced to a new way of looking at life.
Frederick Lenz
The yoga of love is the yoga of acceptance. Love teaches us that which is most important is self-acceptance.
Frederick Lenz
Perfection is not a final state. It is a state of mind. There are ten thousand states of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Buddhism is yoga. Yoga started, who knows when? A long time ago, when the first person found that they could still their thoughts and experience eternity and access the higher planes of mind.
Frederick Lenz
You become a monk and you practice and the teacher tells you what to do. If you find that you have a resistance to that, and the resistance is strong, it just means you're not interested. Why put yourself through some sort of torture. It means you weren't that interested.
Frederick Lenz
Nirvikalpa samadhi or sahaja samadhi is all the way up. You get above the cloud line to the land of eternal snows and it's ecstasy beyond ecstasy.
Frederick Lenz
People seem to get caught up in jargon like they get caught up in ashrams and power structures and they never become free. They become masters of jargon and power structures.
Frederick Lenz
Chakras really are dimensions. We think of them as objects, but they're not really. They're dimensional access points, whereby we can enter into different levels of mind, and that happens automatically.
Frederick Lenz
Grammar has qualities, shapes and forms.
Frederick Lenz
If you think it makes a difference if I have ten thousand sports cars, ten million girlfriends and lead a very flashy life ... I don't think you should work with any teacher because you don't know what it is all about yet.
Frederick Lenz
The few women who have been admitted to the study are usually given a second-class status in which they are taught only the basics of self-discovery.
Frederick Lenz
How do you deal with meditating when you stop breathing? The trick is to meditate just a little higher and you won't even know that you're not breathing.
Frederick Lenz
The person who did all of these things has gone away, vanished without a trace in the ecstasy of existence.
Frederick Lenz
All the manifest forms of existence are but illusions. They are momentary displays of consciousness, flashes of lightening in the sky. They are there for a moment and then they are gone.
Frederick Lenz
The etiquette is higher consciousness, sensitivity, gentleness, gracefulness, intensity, power, and knowledge.
Frederick Lenz
The difficult opponent is the best.
Frederick Lenz
We throw you as many as you want, in this profession, and the more you want the more we'll give you, until you're so confused that you'll just beg for us to stop. Stop what? You're the one who started it - you're doing it anyway.
Frederick Lenz
You don't know why, but you know you have to go home. It's an eternal longing. It's Marvell's drop of dew wanting to go back to the sky. We're drawn by a force we don't understand, through worlds, through experience.
Frederick Lenz
How could sexuality be anything but God? It's the creation of life. Life is experiencing itself in endless forms.
Frederick Lenz
Arjuna is a warrior of great renown, says he won't fight. He tells Krishna: I can't fight because I love these people. It's immoral. It's unjust. There's no winning.
