The natural elements in the forests, mountains, deserts and large bodies of water, help shield you from the thought forms and auras of other human beings.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If you are finding that you can stop thought longer and longer, I would say your life is bringing power into your being. You are gaining things out from that field behind the house.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I don't really have a problem with the pain of life. Perhaps that is because I am a martial artist and I am used to dealing with pain. Or perhaps I adjusted to pain because there has been a great deal of it in my life.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Don't be afraid. You are as alive as anything else is alive. Your right to be alive is as great as the right of anything else.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Only real love of the infinite will motivate you. While pain motivates, once we feel comfortable and the pain has stopped, we'll stop evolving. Love is a far superior spiritual vehicle.
Frederick Lenz

Buddhism is yoga. Yoga started, who knows when? A long time ago, when the first person found that they could still their thoughts and experience eternity and access the higher planes of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Image

Love is the chariot of emotion which takes us to our beloved. When we love we see beyond the prism of illusion.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Practice love and self-acceptance and you'll have an absolutely beautiful life.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Enter into the activities of the world, without getting overjoyed by success or totally put out by failure. Whether they love you or hate you, it doesn't much matter. What matters is stillness.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Enlightenment is a lot like dying. You might wonder why there aren't more enlightened people. It is because they are afraid to die.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In this world we see more passion than dispassion. We see more fear than knowledge. Armies rule the world. Fear-net is happening. Consequently, everyone is raised with fear embedded in their consciousness.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Psychic development is a necessary skill in leading a successful and happy life. Your intellectual processes and your senses don't give you enough information to distinguish the real from the unreal.
Frederick Lenz
Image
It is equally easy, initially, for either a man or a woman to attain enlightenment, what we would call liberation or self-realization.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Those who are already adept at some disciplines of the body will find that the study of Zen and meditation will give you much more control than you now have.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In the Bhagavad-Gita, a dialogue ensues in the middle of a battlefield, symbolizing the battlefield of life which we are fighting through our illusions.
Frederick Lenz
Image
If your life is based around your being comfortable, you're not very comfortable. You suffer quite a bit - becuase in the realm of the senses there is not only pleasure, but there is pain.
