You are trying to pierce the veil, to break through the Frisbee so that it doesn't exist, to break through the football so it doesn't exist, and to break through your opponent so they don't exist.

Frederick Lenz
Zen is about breaking out of your ideas and experiencing life and not ideas.
Frederick Lenz
If you think that material success will bring you happiness, relationships, people, places, things, fame, fortune, you definitely should not practice tantra.
Frederick Lenz
Meditation is like taking a shower. You are going to wash all the dirt off that you have picked up since your last shower and be clean.
Frederick Lenz
Anybody or anything can become enlightened because enlightenment is the very nature of existence itself.
Frederick Lenz
You can't die. Bodies come and go but your spirit is eternal. You're the stuff that life is.
