I recommend computer science to people who practice meditation. The mental structures that are used in computer science are very similar exercises done in Buddhist monasteries.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
You are a stranger in a strange land. As an evolved person living in a relatively unevolved world, you are constantly subjected to a bombardment of seemingly endless negative vibrations emanating from those around you.
Frederick Lenz
Pick a profession that will give you enough money to give you economic freedom. It is nice to pick a career that really taxes your mind. Use your mind in new and creative ways. You will find that your mind will develop and become stronger.
Frederick Lenz
Enlightenment means that you're in love with all of life, with not only immortality but mortality.
Frederick Lenz
When you practice selfless giving, you're in balance and harmony with everything.
Frederick Lenz
The biggest energy losses for most people are relationships, interrelations with other people. That is where we lose the most energy, through our attachments - opening up to people who might be very nice on the surface but underneath they have a lot of problems.
Frederick Lenz
Have a wonderful sense of humor, particularly about yourself and your own situation. Yet don't simply laugh. Work to change and improve things even though, at times, it seems impossible.
Frederick Lenz
Laughing at fear is one of the best things you can do. When you are afraid, instead of just plunging into panic, laugh. The fear gets really uptight and leaves.
Frederick Lenz
If you really have humility when you love, there is only one thought: What can I do for my beloved?
Frederick Lenz
What is a woman? A woman is chaos. Chaos is the naturally perfect state of all things.
Frederick Lenz
The primary place where most people lose energy is in their relationships with others. That means you lose your energy in your interactions with the people you know best.
Frederick Lenz
Women have very powerful second chakras, and the goal is to move that energy up and use it.
Frederick Lenz
The ashram is where everyone lives in the same building or on the same grounds. You feel that it's selfish for you to devote your life to one person. You don't just love the one, you love the many also.
Frederick Lenz
It's just not working. One nation trying to destroy another, one race trying to destroy another, one religion trying to destroy another - It's the same old story over and over again.
Frederick Lenz
Through the study of Zen you can learn to move from lower to higher states of mind at will. Higher states of mind offer you a much more accurate picture of reality.
Frederick Lenz
It is more important to repeat a mantra several times with total absorption than to parrot it for hours on end.
Frederick Lenz
It's up to you to avail yourself to knowledge. Knowledge doesn't need you. The idea of a compassionate God was formulated, obviously, by someone who didn't want to do any work.
Frederick Lenz
Two people can be work at the same job, side by side. One person is working just for a paycheck. Another is working to perfect their being. Some people think that the material world will make them happy.
Frederick Lenz
It is one thing to teach a dynamic Oriental philosophy and religious code it is quite another to put such a discipline to the test by successfully living it in the face of ridicule.
Frederick Lenz
Words are worthless. How can you describe the other worlds?
Frederick Lenz
Everyone is psychic. People just don't know that. They think so much. They worry so much. They're so caught up in unhappy emotions. They're not still enough.
