Image
Examine your experience of the incarnation so far and realistically add up the moments of happiness and unhappiness and you tell me, oh somewhat vaguely nobly born, you tell me, what has it been like for you?
Frederick Lenz
Image
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.

Image
The transcendental light permeates your being and washes away impurity. All those different selves which are limited and binding and hurting are washed away.

Image
When you visit Nirvana, there is neither existence nor nonexistence. Your baggage never arrives because there is no one there to claim it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In Zen there is a sense of blending, of stepping out of your body and mind and gaining access to powers and abilities that are far beyond the minds of mortal men.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You should be drawing awareness from a deeper part of your being. Your deeper mind has everything already. It knows everything already. It has all the answers.

You can gain power by avoidance. You can gain power by doing certain things. You can gain much more power by meditating.
