Selfliss giving rounds the edges in spiritual practice. Many people can meditate very well but they're still very egotistical.
Frederick Lenz
Image
As a dialectical teacher, I have had many lives where I have taught Zen and Tibetan Buddhism and mysticism. I teach in many different modalites. But the theme that unites them - is love.
Frederick Lenz

We fall into states of illusion - we forget all this. We get caught up in desires, frustrations, political movements, philosophies, religions, the getting of a living, the pain of a body, the pleasure of a body.
Frederick Lenz

The only loser who walks away from a wise man is the one who walks away.
Frederick Lenz

Image
How can you give something to someone who has everything? If you think men are tough to shop for at Christmas, try God. God has everything except one thing, friends. God doesn't have friends.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Nature is our friend - trees, squirrels, grass, fields, meadows, oceans - without people. Hike. Walk. Stroll. Bike. Swim. Be in a still place and feel eternity. Have a great time. Just feel it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I realized that my friends in the ashram needed to be celibate because, for them, sexuality was a very tacky issue.

Image
Through the proper application of kundalini, a woman can quickly become aware of the tremendous power that resides inside herself and reach enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
Image
All action is generated by desire. It is the desire to live that causes us to reincarnate.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There are people who just can't handle life because they've thrown away too much of their reason.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The psychic world is a dimensional plane that you can gain access to. It is a dimension of feeling and clear seeing.
Frederick Lenz
Image
In the world of interactive multi-media highways we are all traveling somewhere interactively and we are all shopping for something, our dreams, our hopes, our ambitions for ourselves, for those we love - these little scenarios we play out endlessly in our mind.

If there wasn't a way around the samskaras, no one would ever become enlightened.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Enlightened teachers are not logical. They don't function from levels that are understandable to the human mind. They're not religious. Religions form around them, usually after they've died.
