Who needs to go the horror movies? Just go outside or turn on the TV. Buddha called it the nightmare of the day. Welcome to incarnate experience.

Image
The energy strands and bands of our being are linked in a certain way and makes us what we are. It causes us to perceive a certain level of the dream of life. But you can reorder those. That's magic, you see.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Flaky devotionalism, bowing and scraping and sucking up to the teacher is very phony. It is counterproductive to enlightenment and spiritual development. What is necessary is mutual respect.

Zen is meditation, the actual experience of life directly, immediately with no buffers.
Frederick Lenz

Meditation will do you a disservice. It will confuse you more than clarify you. It will bring tremendous impurity in you - if you are allowing your mind to wander during the empowered experience.

I have seen people who practice yoga and Buddhism who are scared to death of the sorcery powers of others. This is absurd.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Everyone has sunk on this plane to such a low state of consciousness, it is the natural state. We have deviated so far from the norm in this age of darkness.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The key to all enlightenment is to have personal experiences in the world of light. All you need to do that is to meditate.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You can think whatever you want, you can create all the labels you choose, but the universe just is. You can come to terms with it or not. If you don't come to terms with it, we say you live in illusion.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The eye of God is inside us. It's looking through us and it sees whatever we look at. Sometimes I think we could give God better things to look at, don't you?
Frederick Lenz
Image
Free will exists within each of us. Most people choose not to use their free will, so consequently they rarely alter their karmic patterns.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Your ego interferes, your sense of self. When you let go of the mind, the Frisbee will take its own path.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I think enlightenment is something that you decide to do after you have met someone who is enlightened. Something touches your heart, your being at a very deep level.

At the same time, I went through college, received a Ph.D. and started to teach. I wrote books.
