Christmas time - an Enlightened Teacher came into the world, taught, and died. His message was simple: Forgive. While the human beings of this planet have still not absorbed this simple Truth, it remains the Truth.

Frederick Lenz
Why do you suppose that in the last 100 years technology has evolved a thousand times further than it has in the last 3,000 years? It's the level of souls that are incarnating. The older Atlantean souls are coming back. They have a natural affinity for communication, electronics, medicine, law and media.
Frederick Lenz
Every time you find yourself becoming angry, jealous or frustrated, stop and think the opposite thought.
Frederick Lenz
The dreams of existence of that we call time, space, matter, subject, object, yin, yang - everything flows forth from this tai chi.
Frederick Lenz
As we go within the self, we discover that all the voices of our past lives are still there. As we peel ourselves, which is a process very much like peeling an onion, we discover that there are many selves within the self.
Frederick Lenz
Satori is a brief flash. Suddenly the light breaks through. For a short timeless time we experience eternity in its unmanifest form. It's comparable to salvikalpa samadhi.
Frederick Lenz
Work in a place that feels good to you. Select the best of that which is available. The Zen of working is just to do it, not to worry about it. Feel you would be doing it without the money.
Frederick Lenz
Most successful people find out that the attainment of their goals doesn't necessarily bring them the happiness and joy they assumed their happiness is short-lived.
Frederick Lenz
People who ponder too much about the subject of enlightenment don't progress very fast. It is interesting to know it's there, but you can't know what it's like until you get there.
Frederick Lenz
Once we've achieved perfect meditation, we're terribly trapped because that's an illusion...any enlightenment that seems ultimate is an illusion.
