From my point of view, which is the point of view of no illusions, there is only winning and losing. You might as well be a winner.
Frederick Lenz

The theory of Zen is non-competition. But that is not really true at all. People who practice Zen are very competitive. They are competing against emptiness.

We feel crowded by other people we feel crowded by social rules we feel crowded by ourselves, mainly.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Stop trying to be different. Just do what you are good at, and work really hard. You have to work hard to be chaos.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There are ten thousand states of mind. The culmination of the states of mind you have gone through will create your next lifetime.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Image
If you take the time to bring the light of the supra-conscious into your being, then automatically all blockages will go away. These are just ways of talking, there are no blockages, schematically I mean.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When you live in a psychic state of mind, you are happy. You don't have to do anything. Life is always beautiful, but we don't see it when we enter into lower states of mind that are, in effect, cloudy.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There are primarily two ways people can drain your energy. They can get you to want them or what they have or they can get you to fear them. In order to drain you they must get into your attention field.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Tantric Zen is the awareness of the infinitude of all things. To gain that awareness, to be it, is enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Your tonal must accept that the nagual exists and that it's beneficial and healthy.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Tantra won't work unless you've been trapped by spirituality. You have to be trapped by spirituality before you can be liberated from it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Perfection is not a final state. It is a state of mind. There are ten thousand states of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Dreams are real. This is unreal. This world is unreal. Everybody has it backwards. This is the dream. This is an insubstantial pageant. Nothing here lasts - that is how you know it's the dream.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Humility feels that there is someone, somewhere who can do anything I can do better - except one thing: no one can be better at being me.
