More quotes by Frederick Lenz
The pathway to enlightenment is joyful. It may sound harsh. I suggest just the opposite. It is rather easy compared to the possibilities of staying in pain and illusion.
Frederick Lenz
The practice of meditation is an ancient practice. It's been practiced in many lands, for many lifetimes. You may have practiced it before.
Frederick Lenz
The future is certain for those who follow dharma. Those who don't follow dharma are pushed back again and again into the net of rebirth. They are drawn back to the same planes of attention, or lower. It could happen to you!
Frederick Lenz
Start a meditation session by repeating a mantra, perhaps, Aum, which is the most powerful of all mantras. Then, after repeating the mantra perhaps a dozen times, focus on a yantra.
Frederick Lenz
I can play the guitar, the dulcimer, the piano, and the drums. However, I am not a performance quality musician. Rather, I am a composer and a producer.
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 male establishment power structure has not really changed its attitude towards women. They did not give these rights to women out of kindness. These rights were fought for by many highly evolved women who cared about the lives of their daughters and granddaughters.
Frederick Lenz
When we dream, we create. All of life is a dream or a series of waking dreams. We dream our surroundings. We dream our friends, our relations. We dream our bodies. We dream our dreams.
Frederick Lenz
So what you are accomplishing is entrenching yourself more and more in this world.
Frederick Lenz
Meditation is wondering. It is both wondering and wonder.
Frederick Lenz
In self-giving you must be so careful of egotism. You must be so careful when you are aiding others in their liberation not to have a sense of self.
Frederick Lenz
As you pass through this life, have you done all that you really wish to for others?
Frederick Lenz
There is a difference between willing and forcing. Willing something simply means you are not being lazy. Forcing something means you are trying to do something inappropriate or in an inappropriate way.
Frederick Lenz
There is no life and there is no death. Life and death are moving shadows cast upon the ground by clouds that sweep across the sky.
Frederick Lenz
I don't work with men who are antagonistic to the liberation of women. I do work with quite a number of men who are supportive of the enlightenment of women. Such men are rare.
Frederick Lenz
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
The vast majority of the people who populate our planet live lives of quiet desperation that are all too often quite harsh and painful, lives in which events and circumstances usually don't turn out the way they had hoped or planned.
Frederick Lenz
A human being is bound by emotion, enslaved by their desires. A person is never really at peace with themselves because they live in the spectrum of human consciousness.
Frederick Lenz
Watch out for dark streets in big cities because there are a lot of strange beings that hang out there at night, let alone the people. Don't you remember anything from your other lives?
Frederick Lenz
As long as it's a world, it has laws. Why, I don't know, it's just the way it is. In Nirvana, there are no laws.
