More quotes by Frederick Lenz
To deal with someone from other infinites is problematic at times, to deal with a true master of all the realms of the yogas. We call them someone with the seven seals of enlightenment, meaning that their gradated perception has past through all the realms.
Frederick Lenz
You can go to India and you can see gurus go into samadhi. But when they come out of samadhi, they're nasty. They're egocentric. They don't have a deep regard or understanding of what life is. It's just a little trick they can do, a one-trick pony.
Frederick Lenz
It's a good idea to be in the physical presence of the enlightened teacher because it's not physical. You can hear the ocean from quite a ways away, but if you're standing right in front of it, it's easier.
Frederick Lenz
The United States has an incredible debt. That is obviously not the way to live. You have to eliminate waste in your life as the United States has to eliminate waste in its spending.
Frederick Lenz
One day you will arrive at a station on the train of existence that you've always known has been there. You'll find there will be no train in sight, with no sense of arrival. There is only a perpetual arrival, a timeless condition of infinite awareness.
Frederick Lenz
The Grand Canyon is living evidence of the power of water over a period of time. The power may not manifest immediately. Water can be very powerful, like a tidal wave.
Frederick Lenz
We are immortal life. Think of the opportunity of self-realization. What a gas!
Frederick Lenz
As you meditate, you will discover, pleasantly, that you too can see beyond this life, that you can see your eternality.
Frederick Lenz
Nirvana is a step beyond. You dissolve into the universe. The universe dissolves into you until there is no longer a difference. There is no sense of individual self as perceiver.
Frederick Lenz
There's this cave and all humanity is in it and there's this terribly bright light at the other end and everybody's afraid of it.
Frederick Lenz
Reincarnation is a process of moving from one state of mind to another. Whether you are in a body or out of a body is immaterial.
Frederick Lenz
No matter how many times you have failed you must keep going forward. Only when you have become humble will you begin to grasp the meaning of life.
Frederick Lenz
The software is the strength of the electronic tribe because it's networking. It's creating oneness. It's creating tributaries that link together into a singular river.
Frederick Lenz
Death doesn't change anything. It just gives you a new location. The physical mind dissolves. But the overriding state of mind that you die in is the state of mind that you are born into.
Frederick Lenz
Buddhism suggests there are no elect. Everything rests upon your own self-effort, which is the good news because that means you don't have to wait around for some nebulous God to help you.
Frederick Lenz
Gain control of the emotions. Be the helmsperson and not blown around by the winds of emotion. While there will be winds, you can navigate them or even use them to expedite your journey.
Frederick Lenz
When you follow the path of love you should feel that each one is perfect in their own right. While you can love others, never, ever, ever judge them.
Frederick Lenz
Pure and simple, balance is happiness.
Frederick Lenz
There's no risk in doing a lousy meditation or not meditating at all. There's no risk in being convenient and comfortable. There's a lot of risk in the world of enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
You are on a vast wheel of birth and death. You have been through thousands of lifetimes, thousands yet to come.
