It has been my experience as a teacher over the years and incarnations that what really counts are not techniques. What really counts is spirit, love. What really counts is a sense of propriety and dedication.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
The Romans had to kill him because he was threatening the order because he had a great deal of personal power.
Frederick Lenz
To become wise, meditate on the third eye, between the eyebrows and a little bit above. Focus on that spot, the Agni chakra.
Frederick Lenz
Unfortunately we've seen meditation insulted in a sense with the image of ritual. You have to dress a certain way, follow a certain type of lifestyle, all that sort of thing, very culty - and that, of course, has nothing to do with the practice whatsoever.
Frederick Lenz
Most people have no idea how unhappy they are because they don't know what happiness is. When they get a little break from their total pain, they feel a little better and they call it happiness.
Frederick Lenz
The people who imprinted us are not completely happy and they are not completely powerful. So naturally, we have to fight our whole life against that imprinting.
Frederick Lenz
Women are terrified of their sexuality because they've got so much of it, and we live in a society that says they don't.
Frederick Lenz
A continuous perception is taking place deep within the mind. It is hard to hear that signal because it is blurred over by your own thoughts, desires, and fears. It is blurred over by your emotional swings. You become dull.
Frederick Lenz
Psychic perception is a much more efficient and accurate method of seeing and knowing reality.
Frederick Lenz
There comes a time in life when you just buckle down and have a good time with what you're doing. It doesn't matter much what you're doing. What matters is how you do it.
Frederick Lenz
If you do well within this life, that awareness will be held within the causal structure, the part of us that lives from one lifetime to another. It will be available to you in your next life and in future lives.
Frederick Lenz
Even enlightened people think of themselves as beginners. They probably think of themselves as beginners more than others do - perpetual beginners who begin again each moment because their subject is endless.
Frederick Lenz
Everyone will admire you when you do well. What a horrible thing to do to someone.
Frederick Lenz
Karma simply means that whatever type of energy you project, or you allow to pass through your being, you will become for a period of time.
Frederick Lenz
There is a beautiful flow to the study of Zen. If it is not making you happier, then you are not practicing correctly.
Frederick Lenz
Life is an endless matrix of existence. And as you experience it in that pure form, that's what we call enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
In Zen you are learning how to make new realities, to build things inside your mind.
Frederick Lenz
The art of spirituality is learning to be happy in any condition and in any circumstance. This is the art of love.
Frederick Lenz
There is wisdom in not letting anyone really know who you are or what you are like. If you define yourself, people hold you in their mind a certain way making it difficult to change.
Frederick Lenz
The primary place where most people lose energy is in their relationships with others. That means you lose your energy in your interactions with the people you know best.
Frederick Lenz
Human beings go to church. The guy in the front dressed in black is the guy you defer to. He is in charge of the mysteries of universe, which ordinary human beings don't seem to have the inclination to understand.
