More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Occasionally, in each age and in different lands, a Buddha is born, that is to say, an enlightened person...they re-codify the ways, the practices, they make changes that are just intelligent changes that adapt to a new century, a new culture.
Frederick Lenz
It's suggested that enlightenment has some tremendous compassion, some driving necessity to help humanity. I don't think that's the case at all. I think humanity wishes it were the case since it's humanity that writes the various scriptures.
Frederick Lenz
Hell is everything. Heaven is nothing.
Frederick Lenz
Feel that the energy of your willpower can easily deflect tension-causing feelings and frustrations that are directed towards you from the outside world.
Frederick Lenz
The void is ready to snatch you up like a Pac Man machine and Laskshmi is on vacation. You chant Sring - and you get her answering machine.
Frederick Lenz
If you respect your teacher, you do better. Respect is only good because it will help you. Real liberated people, what can you do for them? They've got everything. They are everything. They don't need to be worshipped or adored.
Frederick Lenz
It seems to me that there's a terrible misunderstanding between us. It seems to me that I love you a great deal, my friends.
Frederick Lenz
I like extreme athletics, extreme meditation and extremely beautiful women. Perhaps I'm an extreme person, or it's simply my Karma. But I must tell you, as if you hadn't read about me in a newspaper or seen me on a magazine format television show, there are extreme risks involved with all three.
Frederick Lenz
In the training process, the teacher addresses two sides of your being. One is the tonal and one is the nagual.
Frederick Lenz
Much of the time your attention is directed towards the world of sexuality, it's done through the second attention of a woman - not simply in your physical presence but from thousands of miles away.
Frederick Lenz
Yoga is a removal of the conscious awareness from the world as you know it - the world that you've constructed - through your focus within your mind, to something else.
Frederick Lenz
If you are doing that which is within you, what that part of you that is beyond body would like you to do, then you would not experience stress because you would be very fulfilled.
Frederick Lenz
Who has that absolute trust, to fling yourself into mortality, to let it do with you as it will, with all the permutations and possibilities of as it will, be it horror or ecstasy or boredom?
Frederick Lenz
I can go shopping and pick up some Bounty Towels, the three pack, I can go home and open those up and look at them and see more infinity than in the Buddha's best meditation. If I can't do that, that means I'm wrapped by the Buddha's best meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Your states of mind do not occur randomly. They occur because of vibratory and karmic patterns.
Frederick Lenz
You could sit around and feel sorry for yourself or you can go out and do things for others.
Frederick Lenz
In the West when you talk about yin and yang, people normally think of yin and yang as something that's linear. But in the east we tend to think of yin and yang as circles. They're two circles that actually can lie on top of each other, yet they remain separate.
Frederick Lenz
The relationship between the student and teacher is ultimately important. In higher spirituality we don't study a subject as much as a person.
Frederick Lenz
There are worlds beyond anything you can imagine there are joys beyond anything you have experienced. There are ecstasies that are undreamed of, I assure you.
Frederick Lenz
It's not going to be easy. It's the earth. What creates power in your life is when you perfect your mind, your career, and your associations with others.
Frederick Lenz
