More quotes by Frederick Lenz

If you seek enlightenment, then career is a very important idea on your agenda.
Frederick Lenz
The bully on the block who beats up somebody doesn't become more powerful. All they do is walk around inside their own mind with an inflated ego.
Frederick Lenz
I'm not blaming men, I'm not blaming women. What's gone by has already gone by. It's history. It's done. There is no right or wrong in higher spirituality.

Frederick Lenz
Tantra is not for a hedonist at all. It won't work. If you're heavily attracted to sensual experiences, tantra will definitely not be of any use to you.
Frederick Lenz
Nirvikalpa Samadhi means that you've gone off the board you've gone off the map. There is no way to describe it. You have attained liberation and are no longer bound by the cycle of existence. You just are, and yet you're not, at the same time.
Frederick Lenz
It's only illusions that destroy us. It's illusions that convince us that we can't. It's the illusions of the transient that tell us that all this matters.
Frederick Lenz
I don't believe in anything, yet I believe emphatically in almost everything. It all depends on what seems appropriate at the time.
Frederick Lenz
In meditation the mind stops, thought ceases. When thought stops, the world stops. When the world stops, perception stops. When perception stops, the sense of I as a perceiver falls away.
Frederick Lenz
Ideally, you would live in an area that is not necessarily in the middle of the country, out in the woods, because you can isolate yourself there and get stuck in your own thoughts.
Frederick Lenz
We walk upon the grace of god. Nothing else exists except that.
