More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Everyone will admire you when you do well. What a horrible thing to do to someone.
Frederick Lenz
We forget about the space between the stars, the pure and perfect space that's also the eye of God. To penetrate the mystery is to become the mystery to penetrate infinity is to become infinity to penetrate light is to become light.
Frederick Lenz
Obviously there is a lot more ecstasy in the spirit than in the flesh but the flesh has its moments!
Frederick Lenz
The more lives you have, the harder it is to change, yet the stronger you are. It's a kind of funny dichotomy.
Frederick Lenz
The abuse of power manifests with phony spiritual teachers and phony gurus who tell you how to run your life and what to wear and what to eat, all that sort of stuff. They abuse. People don't realize that, listen to them and ruin their lives.
Frederick Lenz
As you sit in this light from week to week, you will transform and grow and develop. It washes away the samskaras, the past-life tendencies. It washes away the karmic tendencies from this life.
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
The directions for meditation that Sri Krishna gives are very exacting. He tells Arjuna exactly how to get past all the things that cause suffering and transient pleasure to something that is perpetual ecstasy. His directions are that exact.
Frederick Lenz
I recommend computer science to people who practice meditation. The mental structures that are used in computer science are very similar exercises done in Buddhist monasteries.
Frederick Lenz
During those years the past life recollections began. Psychic powers developed, my meditation increased and I found myself changing, over and over again, becoming someone new almost every day.
Frederick Lenz
We are made up of nothing. There is no self. We are whatever we decide we are.
Frederick Lenz
What you gain in internal knowledge goes from one lifetime to another. It is not wasted. Unlike those stone edifices that will fade, your internal knowledge will stay with you from one incarnation to another.
Frederick Lenz
I'll go to a city, a school, and give a lecture because I can feel someone there. I inwardly see first their is someone there who is waiting. Where they'll show up or not, I don't know. That depneds upon many factors.
Frederick Lenz
Some people say: There is no God because, if there was a God, God would stop all the suffering. Nonsense! God is oblivious to suffering. God is beyond suffering. That's what makes God, God, by definition.
Frederick Lenz
Love more deeply and without the sense of what you love being your personal possession.
Frederick Lenz
Buddhism isn't about temples, and incense, and shaved heads, and robes. It's not about church. There are aspects of Buddhism that involve that. People enjoy that, it helps them, it strengthens their practice.
Frederick Lenz
How can you possibly overcome your fears, doubts, worries and other problems? You can't. You simply don't have the capacity. Fortunately, the infinite can do all of these things for you. How? Because it is lacking in nothing.
Frederick Lenz
Use career to develop yourself. Have fun with it. Dedicate your activities and your career, to eternity, and to enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
When every aspect of your life is impeccable, then you will find that there's no limit to your journeys into the infinite.
Frederick Lenz
No one's lazy. What we would call the laziest person on earth expends a tremendous amount of energy to not do things.
