While all the things you believe and know exist in their own right, they're ways of looking at existence, but existence is infinite - it's beyond all ways of looking.
Frederick Lenz
Image
What matters is that they are curious about life, energy, truth, and themselves and that they haven't sold out to the establishment powers that tell us what to think, what to wear, how to behave, what to believe in and what goes beyond the line of rational and irrational thought.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Don't fight with your thoughts or try to suppress them with your will. This will only frustrate you and bind you to your thoughts even more strongly.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When you go into samadhi, either salvikalpa or nirvikalpa, what happens is you erase, you loosen, the aggregates. You simplify them.
Frederick Lenz

Unlock the power of the will. Learn balance and gain the knowledge and wisdom necessary to guide those powers, to succeed in sports and athletics.

If you go too far, it'll blow your mind. I mean it's strong out there. If you go out too far beyond the bounds of attention, there are things in the universe, in the universes of mind, in the inner worlds, it's best sometimes not to deal with unless you're very, very far along.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Very often, in order to bring about stillness we have to be tirelessly active in the outer world. You might suppose this would agitate the mind. It will not, if it is the dharma.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Are you still carrying everyone who's insulted you, injured you or interfered with you? That's a lot of weight. I'd let it go, personally, and just move on and forget. Be in the moment. Don't even notice.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Only real love of the infinite will motivate you. While pain motivates, once we feel comfortable and the pain has stopped, we'll stop evolving. Love is a far superior spiritual vehicle.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Whatever you have learned in your previous incarnations is retained within your causal body, your multi-lifetime body of energy that lives from one incarnation to another.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In the West, we think of sports and athletics as individual achievement, the thrill of victory, the agony of defeat it all revolves around the ego. This has nothing to do with the Zen of sports and athletics.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Most people who have been enlightened in previous incarnations normally begin to regain their past-life enlightenment around the age of twenty-nine, when their astrological Saturn return takes place.
Frederick Lenz
Image
A soul mate is not necessarily someone with whom you set up housekeeping. Your soul and their soul have a multi-incarnation attraction.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I encourage you to make money and to become enlightened. The two are not necessarily different. Have fun with whatever you do because we are only here for a while.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In the second stage we stop thought for limited periods of time.

The only bad meditation is when you don't meditate.

An enlightened person is someone who shifts from one plateau of knowledge to another.
