More quotes by Frederick Lenz
If you become obsessive in spiritual practice, if you just try and try, you are not going to be happy. You are going to be obsessive.
Frederick Lenz
In both Surfing the Himalayas and Snowboarding to Nirvana, I have tried to transmit as best I could the spirit of humor, and the sense of humor of the monks I have encountered.
Frederick Lenz
There are ten thousand states of mind. The culmination of the states of mind you have gone through will create your next lifetime.
Frederick Lenz
Before perception, before a preceiver, existence was - is. This is the consciousness that we refer to as nirvana, God, eternity.
Frederick Lenz
Spiritual Balance is the obvious answer to the obsession that sometimes accompanies religious practice, occult practice, philosophical understandings - the assertion that one is right - that something that you're doing is better than something somebody else is doing, the way you're doing it is better than the way someone else is doing it.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
A lot of people have this live or die attitude with mediation. It has to be all or nothing. I don't think it should be. It's a study that you follow for the rest of your life.
Frederick Lenz
To simply see a teacher to gain power is a mistake. You'll gain the power, but with the current mindset that you have you'll probably create more unhappiness for yourself than happiness.
Frederick Lenz
As long as you fight the system, all of the things that are part of the tonal of the times, then you will be imbalanced and will not do well in the other levels of attention.
Frederick Lenz
This is simple meditation, nothingness and everythingness, the color and the form, death and the void, the end and the beginning, a beginningless end with an endless beginning, Pretty clever if you ask me.
Frederick Lenz
By disciplining and training the mind to focus on one thing, we gain control of perception we learn to grab it and put it someplace we want it to be.
Frederick Lenz
Tantra won't work unless you've been trapped by spirituality. You have to be trapped by spirituality before you can be liberated from it.
Frederick Lenz
Humility can give everything to God. Everything comes from the source, everything returns to the source.
Frederick Lenz
If you meditate you will change in ways that I cannot understand. But that is neither here nor there.
Frederick Lenz
Meditation is the way the mind is. That's why in Zen they call it the natural state, which means you don't have to go and do anything to meditate.
Frederick Lenz
You can be in a state of mind for a few seconds and forget that you were ever in any other state of mind. That's what we mean by illusion.
Frederick Lenz
Sometimes we have to be hard on ourselves. We've got to get on our case, if we are being sloppy, lazy, and indulgent.
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
The most noble of all pursuits is to be enlightened, to know truth, to have knowledge and yet be beyond even truth and knowledge, to be God.
