More quotes by Frederick Lenz
You may have had countless lives, and many more stretching before you, and what else have you got to do with your time?
Frederick Lenz
Meditation is a very powerful time and you are very psychic. It is most important to not allow your attention, your mind, to wander.

The ultimate horror movie for a really un-illuminated being is an enlightened person. They are scared of others seeing what they are all about and what they really do. They are scared of truth.
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

Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
There are many universes, countless universes, and many of them are invisible. We call these the astral planes, but they are as real as this world is and they're filled with beings that have life spans.
Frederick Lenz
It is possible to move to an enlightened state of mind from a lower bardo or level of awareness. It can happen, but it is extremely unlikely.
Frederick Lenz
Don't condemn yourself - that only increases the hold of impurity. Accept your limitations but know that you're working towards changing them.
Frederick Lenz
Step into the mystery of the mind. There are billions of minds, there are billions of selves. There are billions of worlds and dimensions.
Frederick Lenz
Zen is a very fast path to enlightenment, fast in comparison to some other paths, not fast for the person who practices it. There is no sense of speed.
Frederick Lenz
If your're not having a very good time with your life, its because you haven't done much for others. You may have done many things but you havent done much for those around you.
Frederick Lenz
The problem is with any practice is that it is a practice. That is why people don't win. The reason why people don't win is they get stuck in ideas, habits, and ways of seeing life.
Frederick Lenz
You can gain power by avoidance. You can gain power by doing certain things. You can gain much more power by meditating.
