More quotes by Frederick Lenz
On the path of love we feel that if we love today, it's only because God is loving through us, because there is a special grace present with which we can love.
Frederick Lenz
Alow immortality to work through you. Be but a mere instrument. And that instrument should be so absorbed in the perfect perfection of existence, that it knows not even that it is absorbed.
Frederick Lenz
It's a civil war, and Arjuna knows a lot of people who are on the opposite side of the battlefield - they've been his friends.
Frederick Lenz

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
The path of love has many opponents - fear, self-pity, anxiety, hate, lust, greed, avarice - all the usual freinds.
Frederick Lenz
A critical part of Tantric Buddhism is a process of turning of the activities and experiences in your daily life into meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Selfless giving has a lot to do with what happens to you in the future. There is karma, both good and bad.

If you are going to focus on a teacher, you have to be focused on the teacher and not peripheral vibrations that might be around them or it will totally screw up your meditation.
Frederick Lenz
The inner aspects of reincarnation have to do with where you put your mind. The more expansive state of mind you enter into, the less suffering there is.
Frederick Lenz
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.
Frederick Lenz
Learn to be happy in any and all circumstances, whether you're experiencing pleasure or pain, whether there's loss or gain, whether the world loves you or hates you. Learn to be happy.
Frederick Lenz
When you live a life devoid of ritual and convention, with honesty and self-effacement, then you are on the road to freedom.
