More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Love is, in its essence, a free, formless strand of luminosity.
Frederick Lenz
Mystical power, as you know, has a whole different flavor to it. It's much more raucous at times it's much more poignant at times. It involves more of the emotional body.
Frederick Lenz
The real problem is not increasing your energy. The problem is losing it. If you stop the loss and you simply meditate, you will have more than enough energy. You will learn to live strategically.
Frederick Lenz
They don't understand the multi-life sequences. Anything they can't see in a laboratory, they think is nonsense.
Frederick Lenz
Occasionally, in each age and in different lands, a Buddha is born, that is to say, an enlightened person...they re-codify the ways, the practices, they make changes that are just intelligent changes that adapt to a new century, a new culture.
Frederick Lenz
Linus Pauling would have us believe and perhaps correctly, that enough vitamin C will have us live another 20 or 30 years, I think the strongest power in the world is not vitamin C but the power of our own thoughts.
Frederick Lenz
When you manipulate others your attention level drops and you become prey, for you have dropped to the plane of manipulation.
Frederick Lenz
Buddhists don't feel that enlightenment is particularly unusual. We feel that it's the natural state. Enlightenment simply means perceiving life directly as it is in all of its infinite, ever changing wonder, in all of its varied, myriad states of mind or as pari-nirvana, or whatever.
Frederick Lenz
Even though it's not perceivable to the mind or senses, it's there and enlightenment is absolute freedom.
Frederick Lenz
Lao Tsu always points a finger directly to us. He says we must begin with ourselves. It's impossible to bring order into the world unless we bring order into ourselves.
Frederick Lenz
As you become a powerful person, it becomes increasingly important to have periods of solitude. Take a weekend by yourself. Go up into the mountains or desert and check into a little cabin. Go by yourself.
Frederick Lenz
You have to learn to be very, very gentle to start with - with yourself eventually. Meditation is not something that you force. It is something that happens to you because life gives you a gift.
Frederick Lenz
Just as there are primary colors from which all of the others come forth when they're combined, so there are primary vibratory qualities of energy and light within us.
Frederick Lenz
In both Surfing the Himalayas and Snowboarding to Nirvana, I have tried to transmit as best I could the spirit of humor, and the sense of humor of the monks I have encountered.
Frederick Lenz
We are transmuting the reality of our perceptual field. There are endless, beautiful and perfect universes - or you can go beyond universes to the dissolution, where there's no beginning.
Frederick Lenz
A lot of people trash their subtle physical body with psychedelic drugs. While they do certainly give you experiences in altered levels of attention, you pay a price for it. They definitely screw up the subtle physical. Hatha Yoga can be good for that.
Frederick Lenz
Sometimes there are people who only meditate with a teacher. They ride the teacher's energy. They don't really learn how to meditate. They learn how to ride the energy.
Frederick Lenz
What's important is to be supportive of all who practice. Anyone on any level, even if they don't call it self-discovery, who is seeking to awaken to their own potentials and possibilities, to the inner freedom, deserves your respect and support.
Frederick Lenz
Life is composed of lines of light, fibers of energy, pulsing, still, pure being.
Frederick Lenz
We play in the jungle gym of sexuality until our spirit takes us out into a clear field where we can see the stars, the ten thousand radiances of enlightenment. One of those radiances is the dance of sexuality.
