Everybody deals with stress differently. Some people drink, some people use drugs, some people watch TV. I have always found that extreme athletics chills me out and leaves me in a very centered place.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
The purpose of enlightenment is certainly not the teacher, nor is it you. It doesn't have a purpose. Enlightenment simply exists.
Frederick Lenz
If someone else runs faster than you or makes more money than you or is more adept at anything, that doesn't mean you have lost. You are measuring yourself only against yourself and your tendencies not to do all that you are capable of doing.
Frederick Lenz
It really doesn't matter to me whether a person has a lot of money or a little bit of money.
Frederick Lenz
As you become a powerful person, it becomes increasingly important to have periods of solitude. Take a weekend by yourself. Go up into the mountains or desert and check into a little cabin. Go by yourself.
Frederick Lenz
Spend time all day and all night monitoring your thoughts, constantly keeping them in a high plateau. Avoid places and people that pull your energy down.
Frederick Lenz
Love is not reasonable. If we could assign it to the reasonable world, it would not be useful.
Frederick Lenz
It is easier to develop the mind through meditation than it is just through athletic practice. If you put the two together, it will be unbelievable.
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
When we experience fear, it cuts us off from our power. It cuts us off from knowledge and experience. It is a guillotine that falls and separates.
Frederick Lenz
Use career to develop yourself. Have fun with it. Dedicate your activities and your career, to eternity, and to enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
Some people get tired of continual perception of the finite universe. They feel the perception of the universe over and over in variant forms is kind of an unhappy condition, because it doesn't last.
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
What you focus on you become. So always focus on that which is highest, brightest, happiest and most noble of all things, enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
It is necessary to have a very liberal and simultaneously very conservative mentality to practice Tantric Zen.
Frederick Lenz
Life is wonder, endless, ceaseless wonder. If your energy level is low, then everything is gray, two-dimensional, boring, frustrating, and unhappy.
Frederick Lenz
When we use power to cause someone else not to succeed so that we can succeed, it slows our vibratory frequency. It slows us down. When we slow down we experience unhappiness.
Frederick Lenz
Be the exceptional being who separates themselves from the herd and the fate of the herd.
Frederick Lenz
It is necessary to do a very thorough examination of your life and to discover whether the people in your life, no matter how much you love them, are using you or abusing you.
Frederick Lenz
You become someone else when you meditate. It isn't just a little technique. If you really pursue it, you change radically - you evolve.
Frederick Lenz
The primary quality that Lao Tzu seems to emobdy is humility, which is the image of water - seeking the common level of existence.
