More quotes by Frederick Lenz
That's why we call this a dark age. It's a dark age in the sense that there are so many people on the earth who are un-attuned that they create such a level of white noise, in a sense, that it drowns out things that we'd like to see.
Frederick Lenz
In this world we see the pairs of opposites. Ultimately there are no oppositions. In the superconscious awareness there is no division.
Frederick Lenz
Don't become a slave to success or failure, family, friends, possessions. If these things come to you in life, enjoy them, but fix your consciousness on that which does not change.
Frederick Lenz
We seek absolute neutrality in Buddhism. We don't want to be drawn into anything in particular. We don't want to be pushed away from anything in particular.

If you are having problems with money, the answer isn't cutting back. The answer is to make more money.
Frederick Lenz
Learn that happiness comes through self-control and not being angry or jealous. The only one that you really torment is yourself. It is easier to let go and gain new ways of looking at life.
Frederick Lenz
There are views. And what we see in a view is not necessarily what is in the view, all that is in the view. We have to separate, to some extent, the perceiver from that which is perceived or we have to lose all distinction whatsoever.
Frederick Lenz
While I enjoy teaching people on the basic and intermediate levels to work them up to advanced levels, my real talent is for the advanced students. You could say that I'm like a ninth-degree black belt in martial arts.
Frederick Lenz
Humility is the most important quality in the spiritual life. When it is lacking spiritual growth stops.
Frederick Lenz
People who meditate deeply find wonderful things happening in their life all the time.
Frederick Lenz
For years and years you enter into samadhi every day in order to attain liberation. Eternity fashions a new self which you find yourself with when you come out of samadhi. Each time you come out a little less, you might say, or your real self comes out a little more

Tantric Zen is a state of mind
Frederick Lenz
Words are deceptive. You think you understand something because it's explained to you and now you are under no obligation to do anything because you understand it.
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.
Frederick Lenz
The problem is with any practice is that it is a practice. That is why people don't win. The reason why people don't win is they get stuck in ideas, habits, and ways of seeing life.
Frederick Lenz
Tragedy brings us closer to ourselves - it's the only thing that does.
Frederick Lenz
Reality is not the world as you perceive it. Reality is the world perceived through enlightenment. It's the same world but it's not the same world.
Frederick Lenz
The key to all enlightenment is to have personal experiences in the world of light. All you need to do that is to meditate.
Frederick Lenz
There is no final stage in nirvana. Nirvana is beyond definition. It is not quantifiable.
Frederick Lenz
If you learn to lead your life strategically and strongly, you can overcome the opposition. But running away, you never overcome anything. The pathway to enlightenment is for the warrior, the samurai.
