More quotes by Frederick Lenz
You may have thousands of lives to go between now and before you're a real hard-core seeker of enlightenment, hardcore meaning you just love it.
Frederick Lenz
Begin to live in other levels of attention all the time whether you're at work, driving or running on the beach. When you begin to be in a more meditative state all the time you will find that it fits rather well with everything that you do.
Frederick Lenz
As you learn to accept that the body is transitory, as you watch it with love, but without attachment, the body will develop purity.
Frederick Lenz
If the Zen master sees that it will cause a person to progress, he will ask that person to do a task. The task is charged with power if it's performed properly. It's a koan between yourself and the Zen Master.
Frederick Lenz
The more advanced the teacher, the better for you. The fifth degree black belt is so expert that they will understand that you're a beginner and throw you perfectly so that no harm will befall you.
Frederick Lenz
As an incarnation of love you put up with flack until it becomes detrimental to a person.
Frederick Lenz
Being on the path means we again meditate with joy. We deal with the suffering of life and the pain of existence without perfect enlightenment with a smile.
Frederick Lenz
What you have done causes things to happen. Your situation in life now has been caused, is predicated upon, your previous actions. That is karma.
Frederick Lenz
When you meditate deeply, you will see beyond life and death. You will see that you can't die and you can't be reborn. You are existence itself.
Frederick Lenz
If you are truly wise, then you reflect the universe and you are relational in your approach to things. You are a mirror of infinity. That is wisdom.
Frederick Lenz
Reciprocity, a symbiotic relationship, is a relationship in which two people have worked out certain terms. I am using you in certain ways you are using me in certain ways. That is a balanced relationship.
Frederick Lenz
Love teaches you to love your own mortality, just as we love the flowers that bloom for a short time and pass on.
Frederick Lenz
The limitations that we can see of the sexual description of reality are very apparent. Very few men attain enlightenment, even fewer women.
Frederick Lenz
People who are capable of practicing tantra are individuals who have meditated for many, many years and developed very strong and powerful states of attention.
Frederick Lenz
In Tantric Zen, career, relationships, the type of insurance you have - all things are part of your evolution, your awareness, your experience of the suchness of existence.
Frederick Lenz
The word Guru, as it is used in the contemporary American scene, is someone who takes all your money and tells you what to do with your life. You assume no responsibility. A lot of people want that free ride.
Frederick Lenz
There will be a perfect flow of energy in whatever you choose to do, and there will be a grace and power present in all of your movements.
Frederick Lenz
The art of love is to embrace the world and that which lies beyond it.
Frederick Lenz
Happy people, enlightened people, successful people all share something in common. They have learned how to manage and increase their energy.
Frederick Lenz
We live in a world where no one believes. Enlightenment and knowledge are laughed at. Those who seek and teach the mysteries are scorned and often persecuted. Welcome to the planet earth: environment hostile.
