Zen is a study. It's a discipline. It involves the active use of will to make things happen or not happen. These are the secrets of power.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
There is no loneliness when you meditate, you feel eternity. How could you ever be lonely? You just feel God's love for you and that sustains you. It's totally clear it's part of every aspect of your being.
Frederick Lenz
There is only eternity. That's our real body. The stars are our blanket. Time doesn't even exist, except in our own minds.
Frederick Lenz
Your soul wants experience. It wants the world. You're a human - and your eternal. The two are the same.
Frederick Lenz
The chi is the central energy or power that we use in physical expression. When the chi is flowing properly in our lives, we can be very adept athletically.
Frederick Lenz
In the yoga of love we learn to love consciousness. Consciousness is existence. It is the very stuff of which life is composed.
Frederick Lenz
A lot of people have this live or die attitude with mediation. It has to be all or nothing. I don't think it should be. It's a study that you follow for the rest of your life.
Frederick Lenz
A teacher is not someone you need perpetually. You need them to show you how to get through the doorway but once you get through the doorway, you are on your own.
Frederick Lenz
Some of the most exalted states of consciousness I experienced were in bed with someone, alone, or with my spiritual teacher. There was never a difference for me.
Frederick Lenz
When we erase perception, then we erase that which perceives perception. The universe dissolves and we see that it was never real to begin with.
Frederick Lenz
You will gain energy by meditating deeply, by speaking the truth, by learning to be still and by avoiding the crowd, most of the time, not all of the time.
Frederick Lenz
Perfection is not a final state. It is a state of mind. There are ten thousand states of mind.
Frederick Lenz
It is the Buddhist belief that all things, experiences and people are inherently empty. That is a simple way of saying that all physical and nonphysical things have another side.
Frederick Lenz
Self-discovery is realistic. It's not built on ideas and philosophies. It's what works. Philosophies are nice if you like philosophies. But self-discovery is predicated on something that really brings you into enlightened states of mind.
Frederick Lenz
How can you possibly be happy if you think you're a person? Because we all know, just by definition, that people are definitely not happy because they take everything too seriously. They take themselves seriously.
Frederick Lenz
If you're powerful enough you can even determine whom you will meet and whom you will avoid long before you meet them.
Frederick Lenz
Let's say you dissolve and become infinite light. There is this sense of being light even though the mind is not thinking it, one feels it, which indicates that one is still there - at least half of one.
Frederick Lenz
If a person sets out to practice meditation in this lifetime and they have a little bit of spiritual evolution behind them and they're quite dedicated, it really is not at all an impossible task to enter into salvakalpa samadhi in this particular lifetime.
Frederick Lenz
Seeing occurs, of course, through stopping thought. Thought is the fog. When thought stops in meditation, at any point, when there's no thought, we see the other shore.
Frederick Lenz
The finite forms have fallen away and we have become God.
Frederick Lenz
The description you have been given of the world is an aberrant one. It does not accept and give proper place to the nagual, to the mysterious unknown that is our heritage.
Frederick Lenz
