Emotions are there to enjoy life but they are not used in self-reflection because they inhibit a proper reflection. They gunk us up.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Overcoming fear has nothing to do with abandoning common sense. We retain our common sense, but we lose that emotion that is fear.
Frederick Lenz
Power is emotionless yet one with personal power will experience more emotions.
Frederick Lenz
People always say, 'A good man is hard to find.' You've never heard that about women, have you?
Frederick Lenz
It is the Buddhist belief that at every moment the universe is not only dying but being reborn.
Frederick Lenz
There is an art, a science to gaining power. There is a natural force or inclination in all of our beings to accumulate power. The problem that we come into is conditioning.
Frederick Lenz
Power either goes up or down. Your thoughts are the harness of power. It is necessary to think positive thoughts, not just wait for them to occur, but to introduce them.
Frederick Lenz
The universe is made up of vibrating, pulsing light. When our attention level drops, we don't see that. Instead we see what appears to be a solid material world.
Frederick Lenz
The magic of life, of course, is not something that can be explained. Structures can only take us to the point where they begin or end. Beyond structures is the white light.
Frederick Lenz
If you have the sense of participation in sports or athletics, of being a player, then you are not really into the Zen mind. In Zen mind there is no sense of self in the play.
Frederick Lenz
There are countless dimensions filled with beings of other orders. Now this may sound peculiar to some people, but it was only several hundred years ago that we invented something called the microscope. Since then worlds whose existence we did not suspect have become commonplace
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
No one can bring you into higher states of attention permanently. I can take an individual and i can change their awareness. That's easy. But how long will it last?
Frederick Lenz
Everyone meditates in their own way. Some people sit and practice formal mediation techniques for many hours a day while others spontaneously meditate while watching a sunset, listening to music, or participating in athletics.
Frederick Lenz
The way to meditate is by not trying to be too good at it too quickly. This is essential, because otherwise you won't have any fun with it.
Frederick Lenz
What is male and female? Is it just a physical condition? No. The energy runs very, very differently in a woman than in a man.
Frederick Lenz
The trick to keeping your meditation practice alive, not simply consistent but wonderful, is you need to bring a certain will or force into every meditation.
Frederick Lenz
The issue is not what you're doing with your body it's what you're doing with your mind.
Frederick Lenz
We see signs of it perhaps for 28 das or 34 days, then it goes away. Yet we are different.
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
You can gain power by avoidance. You can gain power by doing certain things. You can gain much more power by meditating.
Frederick Lenz
