More quotes by Frederick Lenz
People who work to bring about perfection see work as an extension of themselves. The point is to do a good job. That will empower you. To do a poor job will make you weaker.
Frederick Lenz
Self-knowledge, I guess, is hard. But I think pain is harder, personally. I think to be hopeless is very hard. I think to die without hope or to live without hope is very hard.
Frederick Lenz
Don't try and understand this with your mind. There will be no absolute knowing, no certainty in these thoughts and philosophies and ideas.
Frederick Lenz
There is no self. There is nobody home. No forwarding address, no zip code. Address unknown.
Frederick Lenz
Feel eternity around you. Not as an idea, not as a nice intellectualization, but to really feel it not to be some religious fanatic who's strung out on some weird idea of salvation to the exclusion of common sense.
Frederick Lenz
You know, these non-physical beings, it's very hard to tell what they're up to. You can't see them. How can you rely on them? It's chancy.

Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
No place is the same because everything is shifting always.
Frederick Lenz
I realized after being married for some time that it wasn't enough. It wasn't enough to lead an individual life where I loved on person and we created a world together.
Frederick Lenz
You need energy and life force to see and feel what you need to do. Otherwise you are in a dark room and you can't tell what's going on. You need to practice meditation.
Frederick Lenz
Each of the small enlightenments that a Zen practitioner has, which are known in Zen as Satori experiences, provides deeper insights into the nature of existence and helps a person prepare for complete enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
I think enlightenment is something that you decide to do after you have met someone who is enlightened. Something touches your heart, your being at a very deep level.
Frederick Lenz
Energy is gained by giving energy. When we give energy, we gain energy. This is different than having someone manipulate you and take your energy.
Frederick Lenz
Approach each task in your life, no matter how simple or how complex, with power.
Frederick Lenz
The network of enlightenment is a very wide network. It's not relegated to a simple type of being. It's not the network of the goody-goods.
Frederick Lenz
There is illusion, the way you see things now, thinking that there is a tomorrow, there is a today, there is time and that there is life and death. Those are just appearances
Frederick Lenz
You are not a body. You are not a mind. You are infinite light, infinite intelligence, the radiance of all beings, the dharmakaya - the endless light of creation.
