The Winter Solstice is the time of ending and beginning, a powerful time -- a time to contemplate your immortality. A time to forgive, to be forgiven, and to make a fresh start. A time to awaken.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
The spirit of the West, of America, is different than the East. The cultural conditioning is very different. It seems to be harder for people to work in teams, more difficult for people here to live in harmony, in a monastery.
Frederick Lenz
From a Buddhist perspective, it is incorrect to always assume that we know what is best.
Frederick Lenz
If you can develop a connection, what we call an inner connection with the teacher, then it is not even necessary to be in the physical presence of the teacher, although it will always be stronger.
Frederick Lenz
No one's lazy. What we would call the laziest person on earth expends a tremendous amount of energy to not do things.
Frederick Lenz
The reason why we're not happy is because we believe consciously and subconsciously that we're separate from god, eternal awareness.
Frederick Lenz
Different schools of Zen have evolved, principally the Rinzai and Soto orders. A whole hierarchy has developed for the teaching and practice of Zen. Zen has become, to a certain degree, institutionalized.
Frederick Lenz
Tantric Zen is the awareness of the infinitude of all things. To gain that awareness, to be it, is enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
When you meditate deeply, you will see beyond life and death. You will see that you can't die and you can't be reborn. You are existence itself.
Frederick Lenz
You are trying to pierce the veil, to break through the Frisbee so that it doesn't exist, to break through the football so it doesn't exist, and to break through your opponent so they don't exist.
Frederick Lenz
I don't work with men who are antagonistic to the liberation of women. I do work with quite a number of men who are supportive of the enlightenment of women. Such men are rare.
Frederick Lenz
It doesn't pay to listen much to what human beings have to say in their evaluation of you, since they don't evaluate themselves very properly.
Frederick Lenz
Beyond the astral dimensions are the causal dimensions. They are not spatial or time oriented. They are planes of light, and they make up the outer limits of nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
We were never there to begin with. What we are, or conceive of ourselves as, is a perception.
Frederick Lenz
Everything goes through the cycle of birth, growth, maturation, decay and death. But all of this is an illusion. Everything we see is an illusion.
Frederick Lenz
The higher octave light that comes from samadhi, the kundalini of samadhi, this you can absorb continuously. You can never overload. It can never hurt you.
Frederick Lenz
Enlightened people live in very charged states of attention, with a tremendous power circuiting through them.
Frederick Lenz
Light by its very nature is endless. Therefore you can never say you've had the ultimate experience in light - it goes on forever.
Frederick Lenz
The essence of all reincarnation is to have the best lifetime now that you've ever had, no matter what's going on.
Frederick Lenz
The male establishment power structure has not really changed its attitude towards women. They did not give these rights to women out of kindness. These rights were fought for by many highly evolved women who cared about the lives of their daughters and granddaughters.
Frederick Lenz
The only reason you feel pain is because you're so busy looking at yourself instead of looking at the wonderful patterns of light. If you become absorbed in the wonderful patterns of light, then there's no pain.
Frederick Lenz
