If someone confronts you about draining them it could be a double reverse. They are draining you and accuse you instead of draining them, just to throw you off.

You can't throw your ego away, but you can use its innate desire to experience that which is beyond itself to give you the impetus to meditate.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Try to be still inside. Learn to quiet and stop thought, and you will be able to develop your mind. Your psychic intuition will start to come about.

The key to selfless giving is that you feel good when you do it and you feel good afterwards.

Tantric Zen is not being kinky nor is it being conservative and austere. It is eclectic. It is a real mixture of all things.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The power that enables us to transform our awareness is the release of kundalini. All yoga, either directly or indirectly, all Buddhism, relates to the release of the kundalini energy.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Focus your attention on the center of your stomach, in the area of your naval. Feel that this is an area of tremendous strength.
Frederick Lenz
Image
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
Only listen to the observations of the enlightened because everyone else is self-centered, egocentric and bound by the net of desire.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Learn to let go. You do it a little at a time.

Image
Put the mind in alignment with the ten thousand radiances of enlightenment and experience them in various gradations forever. That's the total purpose of a monk.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Occasionally, in each age and in different lands, a Buddha is born, that is to say, an enlightened person...they re-codify the ways, the practices, they make changes that are just intelligent changes that adapt to a new century, a new culture.
