Some people go into tantra with the idea, sort of an intellectual approach, that now they can just do everything and stay high. That doesn't work at all.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Karma has always existed, as have you, I, and all things in this wonderful universe.
Frederick Lenz
It's unfortunate that we see a great many women settling. They think that simply because they have gotten the right to vote, own property and have gained some simple freedoms that the battle for women's suffrage is over.
Frederick Lenz
If you can't hold a person in your mind with a good thought, it is better not to think about them at all.
Frederick Lenz
Nirvana is the center of things then there are the outer bandings of attention. The universe is a mind. At the center of its mind is nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
Don't preach about meditation.
Frederick Lenz
What is evil? There is no such thing. In Buddhism we don't recognize evil and therefore we don't give it any power over us.
Frederick Lenz
The person who practices advanced meditation is usually not married, some are. They usually don't have children, some do. But chances are they will not marry or have children because it demands to much time.
Frederick Lenz
At the end of your life you will probably end up in an old-age home, or in a back room in one of your children's houses, left only with a handful of fading memories and a body racked with great pain and suffering.
Frederick Lenz
Expect forces to interfere with you and expect to conquer them all, if you are serious about the study. Just as there are powers that interfere with those who seek enlightenment, there are forces that will help.
Frederick Lenz
Selfless giving is a choice. The primary choice we make is not what to give, how to give, where to give. What we are trying to do is become perfect givers.
Frederick Lenz
No one can bring you into higher states of attention permanently. I can take an individual and i can change their awareness. That's easy. But how long will it last?
Frederick Lenz
By fully focusing your mind on your chakras, stilling your thoughts, and increasing your kundalini flow, you can rise above your body consciousness and unite your mind with the clear light of nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
In the Far East, it is taken for granted that the training of a monk is physically rigorous and academically challenging.
Frederick Lenz
If you think of others in a jealous way or if you become angry, immediately pause for a moment. It's going to pull you down and send negative energy. At that moment, pause and correct yourself.
Frederick Lenz
A time comes when it isn't enough to read about Buddha, we wish to have that happen to ourselves. That's when we move from the exoteric to the esoteric, from religion to mysticism.
Frederick Lenz
The psychic perception is a feeling as opposed to a thinking. Not a feeling that is engendered through emotion necessarily. It comes from the psychic plane of intuition, which is another stage of our mind.
Frederick Lenz
Emotional control is essential for attaining higher levels of mind. The thing that the teacher looks for in a student is the degree of self-control, not coldness that someone has.
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
The Self is infinite. The Self is eternal. You are that Self. Beyond words, thoughts, ideas, forms and belief systems. There is nothing but the Self.
Frederick Lenz
A life that most people will never even know about can be yours in this study, but only if you approach it with equanimity, poise, grace, balance, and professionalism.
Frederick Lenz
