The problem is with any practice is that it is a practice. That is why people don't win. The reason why people don't win is they get stuck in ideas, habits, and ways of seeing life.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
The psychic plane is clouded over by emotions and thoughts and the general dullness and malaise that develops in our contemporary world through the social conditioning that most individuals experience in the modern era.
Frederick Lenz
What is self? Self is the mind viewing itself. That's all. The mind stops viewing itself and turns towards infinity. There is no self, there's only infinity.
Frederick Lenz
The Zen master can see precisely what it will take to cause your awareness to become free. But the Zen master can't do it for you.
Frederick Lenz
There is no movement in Nirvana. There is no sameness. And one does not consider it to be timeless because one is not one. It is you, my friend, who go away.
Frederick Lenz
There is only one prayer and that is prayer for light, for purity, for perfection.
Frederick Lenz
Without enlightenment, everything in life is harsh. Sooner or later you see everyone you love die, unless you die first, of course. This causes you to suffer.
Frederick Lenz
The Tibetan Buddhist realization is that mind does not have any particular qualities or attributes of its own. It's clear - clear light.
Frederick Lenz
Why do everything perfectly? Isn't perfection just an illusion? Tell me if it's an illusion if they don't fix your car perfectly next time you bring it in.
Frederick Lenz
To think that God is compassionate is a terrible mistake. To think that God is wrathful is equally stupid. God isn't emotional. You are. To superimpose your emotions on infinity is typically human.
Frederick Lenz
There is a still point in eternity. There is a still point where all things intersect. There is a still point beyond life, time, and death. Your experience of the still point is enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
Any of the exercises that you start out with will get the kundalini moving. You don't have to stay with them for the entire period of meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Every day I get letters from people thanking me for helping them to become successful, whether because of their personal growth or because of economic rewards. A few of my former students have even become millionaires.
Frederick Lenz
The ghetto is not where you live. The ghetto is inside your mind. And anyone who tells you that you can't get out of the ghettos of your own mind has no idea what they're talking about.
Frederick Lenz
The Buddha taught three cycles of teachings. His first cycle of teachings cover the basics, the prerequisites. This would include the Dharmapada.
Frederick Lenz
If the world does not shine brightly, even just the physical, sensual perception after meditation, you have not meditated. You have sat and thought of things that were not real.
Frederick Lenz
If we look further, we see that we actually contain all of existence. Everyone who has ever been or will ever be, is in some way contained in our awareness. Our awareness is like the sky, it's endless.
Frederick Lenz
The Network of Enlightenment watches over a world and guides it, tenderly. Not interfering in its natural course of evolution is our way.
Frederick Lenz
The spirit longs for the world of light from which it came. That longing causes something to happen. It causes the being to grow into light.
Frederick Lenz
To meditate with humility, consider existence. It is infinite. You are finite. You are a finite portion of infinite existence. Let this be your meditation.
Frederick Lenz
I've never seen a society that thinks about sex so much and gets so little!
