More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Bodhidharma who brought Zen from India to the Orient, taught a very pure Zen - in that it was pure Zen. He wanted to show that the way still existed and wanted to get back to its essence.
Frederick Lenz
In the West people spend most of their time and energy working. The problem is you are so tired from work that you don't have much energy to meditate - unless you use work in a tantric way.
Frederick Lenz
To have the detached eye of the occultist, to look outward, to not be so self-reflective and to learn to step through the various viewpoints of consciousness - that we call occultism - leads to freedom.
Frederick Lenz
There is a way beyond this life and beyond death, the path of liberation. In order to be liberated, you have to enter into the world of advanced meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Can you control your anger, lust, frustrations, and jealousies? Those are the only people worthy of the higher teachings. By worthy, I mean that they are the only ones capable of it.
Frederick Lenz
There's a source, there's a perennial source from which all things come forth. We call it the Godhead, Nirvana, the Tao, enlightenment. It's big it's bright it's perfect, as are all of its children, as are we.
Frederick Lenz
If a spiritual teacher says something that doesn't make sense to you, you should always listen to yourself and not the teacher. A little common sense would end all cults.
Frederick Lenz
If you are serious about sports and athletics then you need to begin the discipline of mind. With the power of mind, almost anything can be accomplished.
Frederick Lenz
In deep meditation, all of the things that we call life, all of the combinations of experiences, fall away.
Frederick Lenz
What we are seeking to do is not melt the map of America. We are seeking to melt the self, the solid form that we consider ourselves to be.
Frederick Lenz
There are people who just can't handle life because they've thrown away too much of their reason.
Frederick Lenz
As the prana current, kundalini and different energies begin to move through you, you will feel yourself moving and rocking. Keep the body still, otherwise that energy will be lost as it expresses itself through the physical.
Frederick Lenz
A great deal of humility is necessary in the process of self-discovery. Humility is the ability to accept what and who you are at this moment.
Frederick Lenz
Many men have deep rooted problems regarding the status of women, and during sex these problems come out. They consciously or unconsciously project anger and hate towards women they have sex with. This energy enters a woman's subtle physical body and damages it.
Frederick Lenz
A perfect life is to observe - to realize that you have no control over the events in your life, that there are no events in your life, that there is no life.
Frederick Lenz
A lot of people trash their subtle physical body with psychedelic drugs. While they do certainly give you experiences in altered levels of attention, you pay a price for it. They definitely screw up the subtle physical. Hatha Yoga can be good for that.
Frederick Lenz
The shushumna is the tube that the kundalini passes up in the subtle body, and on one side is the ida and the other side is the pingala.
Frederick Lenz
Success and failure are terrible traps.
Frederick Lenz
When you start your meditation, picture a beautiful blue sky without any clouds in it. Feel that your body is growing lighter. Visualize that you are floating in the sky and that all tension, fatigue, worry and problems have left you.
Frederick Lenz
Review your description of the world, what it is to be a woman, and see how inadequate it is.
Frederick Lenz
