More quotes by Frederick Lenz
If you are doing that which is within you, what that part of you that is beyond body would like you to do, then you would not experience stress because you would be very fulfilled.
Frederick Lenz
We sit in meditation and cry to God, we cry to the light, as little children, knowing God will do everything for us.
Frederick Lenz
Sit down, keep your back straight, relax and have an object on which to concentrate you might use a candle flame, a brightly colored rock, a yantra, which is a geometrical designed specifically for the practice of concentration.
Frederick Lenz
The primary energy that is active in all things is kundalini. Kundalini energy is the energy of awareness. It can be used to modify awareness.
Frederick Lenz
The perfect view of existence comes from an unclouded, uncluttered life and mind whereby the radiance of perfect attention of the mind of the universe floods us at every moment. This is Buddhism. This is being on the path.
Frederick Lenz
Happiness is found principally in meditation. Let your mind flow out into eternity. You have to exert some effort. Then you will notice a subtle smile on your face.
Frederick Lenz
Some teachers are very accessible. They advertise a great deal, they go out into the public. If they're advanced teachers, doubtlessly they are very inaccessible in terms of physical proximity.
Frederick Lenz
When we use power to cause someone else not to succeed so that we can succeed, it slows our vibratory frequency. It slows us down. When we slow down we experience unhappiness.
Frederick Lenz
The teaching that we receive is not necessarily very accurate. The value systems that our cultures have developed are not every open. They are very restrictive. We live in an age that is not enlightened.
Frederick Lenz
To meditate with humility, consider existence. It is infinite. You are finite. You are a finite portion of infinite existence. Let this be your meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Eternity becomes more beautiful as we age, if we age well. If we age poorly, then we don't improve our minds we don't refine all the aspects of our being.
Frederick Lenz
None of this matters a bit. Yet, of course, it matters at that moment. So we try to be mindful of the moment but it's fleeting.
Frederick Lenz
When you are not following dharma, then you will not be at peace. You will not be happy. The simplest things will seem to be endless obstacles.
Frederick Lenz
The majority of the ten thousand states of mind cannot be discussed. It is rather a question of teaching a person to step outside the conceptual framework they have and transmitting blocks of awareness to an individual psychically.
Frederick Lenz
When you see someone draining you, your being naturally cuts it off. Yet many times you can be manipulated not to see.
Frederick Lenz
Our life interferes, our mind, our thoughts. Meditating is not just a practice of asserting will and learning to control the mind, it is also developing control of one's life and gaining wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
If the Zen master sees that it will cause a person to progress, he will ask that person to do a task. The task is charged with power if it's performed properly. It's a koan between yourself and the Zen Master.
Frederick Lenz
Power itself is simply a word to describe attention, awareness, which embodies all things.
Frederick Lenz
If you have done your homework, then the slightest motion from the teacher can cause you to spin into hundreds of different states of mind. That can only happen for the prepared individual.
Frederick Lenz
The kundalini is so strong you must have a strong phsyical body.
