Frederick Lenz
Perhaps you're not the next Buddha. Perhaps you're not the Maitreya. Perhaps that's not your job in this incarnation. Perhaps you have to enjoy life and learn about life through whatever way that you find yourself going.
Frederick Lenz
Try to find a teacher of meditation and meditate at least once a week in a group with people who meditate a little better than you do. It will inspire you to keep meditating.
Frederick Lenz
No matter which way you turn ... there's nothing but illuison.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Self-honesty is absolutely necessary in the practice of Buddhism.
Frederick Lenz
The Divide is like two rivers merging, at the point of merging there is a great deal of activity. The sunset, it's neither dark nor light, and the sunrises are the moments of transition.
