More quotes by Frederick Lenz
How do you become enlightened? I don't know: Luck, karma, skill, friends in high places, friends in low places.
Frederick Lenz
The avoidance of that which causes you pain does not produce enlightenment. It produces avoidance. Religion is the avoidance of pain and suffering.
Frederick Lenz
To become wise, meditate on the third eye, between the eyebrows and a little bit above. Focus on that spot, the Agni chakra.
Frederick Lenz
The way you succeed at all this stuff is by stopping trying to succeed and just working very hard without thinking about it, just trusting, completely. It's that faith that creates the bridge on which you walk across to eternity.
Frederick Lenz
I find it ironic to read stories about myself which have never occurred and are simply so absurd that they are comical. At other times, it is very painful to be so misinterpreted and vilified.
Frederick Lenz
One day you will arrive at a station on the train of existence that you've always known has been there. You'll find there will be no train in sight, with no sense of arrival. There is only a perpetual arrival, a timeless condition of infinite awareness.
Frederick Lenz
When the answer doesn't come, it's not supposed to come yet. Don't make eternity try and conform to what you want. That's desire. desire leads to frustration.
Frederick Lenz
In meditation all the fake dull thoughts that you think, all the ridiculous philosophies, the necessities, all the things that won't matter a bit when you are dead - fade away.
Frederick Lenz
A man, as we see in this world, is chaos, but he doesn't recognize that fact so he tries to bring order into everything. Order is disorder. Order creates disorder.
Frederick Lenz
Behind the transient reality, there is something else. It is a deeper, more permanent and unchanging reality that we Buddhists call nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
Happiness only comes when you let go of who you think you are. If you think you're wealthy and powerful and noble and truthful or horrible and demonic, whatever it may be, it's all a waste of time. Take it from the Zen Master. He knows.
Frederick Lenz
As Buddhists, our only task is to keep our room clean.
Frederick Lenz
Reincarnation is not something that occurs at death it is something that takes place at every moment. Death and rebirth are occurring every second.
Frederick Lenz
It is possible to exert a power over all things, all beings. But we must begin with intent always.
Frederick Lenz
To think you can just go out and help people and somehow get a better life is not reincarnation as I know it. A better life comes from being happy and inner realizations. Now if helping others adds to that, well then, it's great.
Frederick Lenz
Anybody or anything can become enlightened because enlightenment is the very nature of existence itself.
Frederick Lenz
We know that many of the apostles of Christ were killed. Eleven out of 12 met violent deaths when they were just talking about God and light.
Frederick Lenz
There will be a perfect flow of energy in whatever you choose to do, and there will be a grace and power present in all of your movements.
Frederick Lenz
When you meditate you feel joy, harmony, peace, stillness, ecstasy, laughter, certainty, courage, strength, awareness and immortality. In the beginning you will feel these things vaguely, a distant knocking at your castle door.
Frederick Lenz
In poetry, and in my study in graduate school, I was drawn to a particular poet, Theodore Roethke. I did a dissertation on The Evolution of Matter and Spirit in the Poetry of Theodore Roethke for my Ph.D.
