Deluded beings think that if they get in a battle with a Zen Master or with a Don Juan, that it's going enhance their life if they win. You can never take power from someone else any more than you can take sunlight.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
Each day when you meditate, you should devote the first few minutes of your meditation to concentration. This will develop the power of the intellect.
Frederick Lenz
The kundalini runs through you. It runs through the ida and the pingala, the two nerve channels in the subtle body but there's a central channel, the shushumna, which is blocked. When it runs through that, then you can use the mystical kundalini.
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
There are some great stories in The Second Ring of Power about how Don Juan and Don Genaro found their apprentices and what they went through to fool their students into seeking light.
Frederick Lenz
Sometimes you won't feel pleasant during a meditation session it seems like an uphill run. But when you get to the top, the view is rather breathtaking.
Frederick Lenz
You're looking for purity, something that just isn't all garbled, someplace where you can feel the earth again, where you can feel what the wind feels like, where you can see the stars at night, and actually, not just look at little dots in the sky, but feel an energy from them.
Frederick Lenz
The practice of mindfulness is monitoring your mind all day and all night. It's enjoyable to just remove things that make you unhappy from your mind, to clarify your emotions.
Frederick Lenz
What I do, the teacher of the nagual, is open up the bubble of your luminosity and allow the luminous being to take short excursions into the unknown.
Frederick Lenz
This world we exist in is populated by people who have really shut themselves off from life.
Frederick Lenz
Don't run away from the world. The world is God. Don't run towards the world. God is the void. Don't be afraid of the complexities of this life, nor the stark simplicity of death.
Frederick Lenz
It is implicit in the self that the self will automatically evolve if you can dissolve it. It re-patterns itself after archetypal formations that exist deep within the mind.
Frederick Lenz
The theory of Zen is non-competition. But that is not really true at all. People who practice Zen are very competitive. They are competing against emptiness.
Frederick Lenz
Most people want to make maximum money for minimum work, and that does not result in a happy life. Work does not become an active force to advance your awareness into higher states.
Frederick Lenz
I can assure you that next to my bed, there is always a copy of the Dharmapada which I read from every night.
Frederick Lenz
Buddhism is the process of getting to that part of us that is always eternally happy.
Frederick Lenz
Buddhists don't feel that enlightenment is particularly unusual. We feel that it's the natural state. Enlightenment simply means perceiving life directly as it is in all of its infinite, ever changing wonder, in all of its varied, myriad states of mind or as pari-nirvana, or whatever.
Frederick Lenz
When we lack etiquette, we trash things. We trash each other. We trash the environment. We lose sight of the value of things. We suffer alienation when our spirit is disconnected from our physical awareness.
Frederick Lenz
Dharma simply means the right thing in the right place, in the right space.
Frederick Lenz
Whatever you need will be provided. Eternity takes care of everything perfectly. So never want for that which you do not have you have exactly what you need.
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
