More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Don't become a spiritual bigot. Don't feel that just because you meditate and you are striving for enlightenment that you are in any way superior to any other person. Be even. Be easy. You will last longer on the pathway to self-discovery.
Frederick Lenz
Humility feels that there is someone, somewhere who can do anything I can do better - except one thing: no one can be better at being me.
Frederick Lenz
If you stay in the attention you are in, then you can predict everything that will happen to you for the rest of your life.
Frederick Lenz
You don't always have to be the winner, have everybody notice you. It's fun to dance alone sometimes.

To realize the Self involves an action, it implies that there is something to realize, that there is time, a temporal world, and that Self is not yet realized, but will be realized by the actor through action.
Frederick Lenz
If you do well within this life, that awareness will be held within the causal structure, the part of us that lives from one lifetime to another. It will be available to you in your next life and in future lives.

Frederick Lenz
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
The teaching process becomes most interesting for spiritual seekers once they've managed to hit the lower samadhis. However at that point many seekers become very egotistical.
Frederick Lenz
Physical circumstance will not cause happiness. Or if it does, there is the fear of loss. Now you are a slave to it. You have become bound to it.
Frederick Lenz
So, those who hate, those who are violent in nature, live in a world of hate and fear and violence inside themselves, inside their minds, inside their awareness.
Frederick Lenz
You can go to India and you can see gurus go into samadhi. But when they come out of samadhi, they're nasty. They're egocentric. They don't have a deep regard or understanding of what life is. It's just a little trick they can do, a one-trick pony.
Frederick Lenz
The next step in meditation is not just to focus, but to stop thought completely without having to focus you gain a tremendous amount of personal power.
Frederick Lenz
At the beginning of a meditation session your thoughts will be relatively earthbound. You will think about yourself, your world, problems, difficulties and anxieties.
Frederick Lenz
I used to live in Buddhist monasteries and I finally had to leave them because they were just too cluttered for me. They were cluttered up with many thoughts about Buddhism.
Frederick Lenz
In the creative arts you draw a special power. The discipline required is awesome to be an actor or an actress, to be really good, not just another one waiting tables.
Frederick Lenz
Words are worthless. How can you describe the other worlds?
Frederick Lenz
To the great pharaohs it mattered a great deal to bury their treasures in the pyramids, which they thought they would bring to the other worlds. But obviously it doesn't matter to them now. They went, the goods stayed.
