The Buddhists believe that everything in life is random. There are patterns that are intrinsic to life. We don't know why, we just know they're there like the DNA. We have no idea.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
It is is easy to smile. It is an act of self-giving. When you smile you are at your best and you give that best to others.
Frederick Lenz
In order to do an empowerment, a person obviously has to be highly empowered, have the power, and also have the structural knowledge of how to transfer it to someone else.
Frederick Lenz
If you have only been around people who use power in cruel and petty ways, then when you hear the very word, you may have a negative reaction.
Frederick Lenz
Krishna says, fight. He says, go out in the battlefield and kill those people whom it's your job to kill.
Frederick Lenz
The state of mind that you are in causes you to act in a certain way. Your actions will bear results. The ultimate result of all karmas and actions is state of mind. You are your state of mind.
Frederick Lenz
It is one thing to teach a dynamic Oriental philosophy and religious code it is quite another to put such a discipline to the test by successfully living it in the face of ridicule.
Frederick Lenz
You don't have to do anything to be happy, nor do you have to avoid anything. Happiness comes from within your mind. Happiness already exists.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Where is truth? Is there truth in what I am doing now?
Frederick Lenz
The enlightenment experience is not what you think. How could it be anything that you can configure, anything you can imagine, any way that you think it should be?
Frederick Lenz
Whenever you find yourself becoming angry or jealous, try to see good quality in the person. You will suddenly be thinking a higher thought and that will elevate you.
Frederick Lenz
We erase ourselves we go away. But we don't really go away, and we don't really erase ourselves, since we were never there to begin with. We weren't there to begin with in that what we are, or conceive of ourselves as, is a perception.
Frederick Lenz
The Buddhist mind is more complicated than the Christian mind. It comes up with endless heavens, endless hells, endless earths, and then we have something lower than hell. We have endless sub-realms that make hell look like Club Med and we have endless nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
You have to be very, very careful not to pick up too much of the lower energies, the toxic energies, because they'll make you very ill. They can kill you. They can cause cancer, debilitative diseases of all types.
Frederick Lenz
Work sustains us as bodies and it consumes a great deal of energy. The conservation of energy is the component theme of Buddhist practice and yoga. That is why people live in monasteries.
Frederick Lenz
Humility means that you have the courage to accept that you are eternity itself.
Frederick Lenz
We have developed psychic powers in other lives. Now we have many problems because of it, many voices in the mind due to this crowded earth.
Frederick Lenz
You are trying to pierce the veil, to break through the Frisbee so that it doesn't exist, to break through the football so it doesn't exist, and to break through your opponent so they don't exist.
Frederick Lenz
I think the very best thing you can do is observe what makes you stronger and what makes you weaker.
Frederick Lenz
Emotions are there to enjoy life but they are not used in self-reflection because they inhibit a proper reflection. They gunk us up.
Frederick Lenz
