When you are not following dharma, then you will not be at peace. You will not be happy. The simplest things will seem to be endless obstacles.
Frederick Lenz
Image
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
Image
They'll kill you in a minute rather than deal with truth. It's more convenient because then they can forget about it and rationalize your death.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Light by its very nature is endless. Therefore you can never say you've had the ultimate experience in light - it goes on forever.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you suspect someone is draining you, generally you should not confront them, but be nice, relax them, and then see what they are doing.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Don't try to hold people to you, don't try to push them away. Let life do everything for you. This is the proper attitude on the path of love.
Frederick Lenz

Power is something that is not really visible. Some people have the power to rise above circumstance. Sociological factors and DNA are not all that determine success. It is power.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You don't have to take drugs to be happy. You don't have to drink to be happy. You don't have to have people around you who love you to be happy. You don't need anything except the clarity of your own mind.

Frederick Lenz
Image
Help the world in any way that you want to. I have found that the more light you give and spread, the more you will evolve.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I respect self-giving and I've tried to lead my life with that as the ideal. But real self-giving is when we take our being, that which is most precious to us, and we throw it into eternity with a total sense of offering.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Our past affects us, our present affects us, and even our future can affect us. We live in the relative world of time and space.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Self-knowledge, I guess, is hard. But I think pain is harder, personally. I think to be hopeless is very hard. I think to die without hope or to live without hope is very hard.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you start picking up other people's impressions while you are meditating, then instead of clearing yourself, you are just going to completely glom yourself up to the point where there is no meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You perceive yourself as being solid and physical, limited to a body. You are made up of light, endless mind. The way you see life is a limited state of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image
When you are enlightened, your physical body will still feel pain if you get hurt, but you will not be overwhelmed even by extreme physical pain, because your mind is filled with light, love and understanding.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The thing about Buddhism is that it stresses attainment of something ineffable, that is where it differs from other religions in that it's more correct. We live in a world with promises of paradise.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Love is the only antidote for the insanity of this world. And the funny thing about love is that when someone loves you, it doesn't necessarily make you feel better but when you love someone else, it does.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Power comes from the navel center. If you meditate for an hour or so a day and you focus on that sphere, you will release a tremendous power that will enter your body. We call it the chi.

So, those who hate, those who are violent in nature, live in a world of hate and fear and violence inside themselves, inside their minds, inside their awareness.
