More quotes by Frederick Lenz
In the big picture we are all eternal.
Frederick Lenz
The meaning of life changes as you change dimensional planes. The way human beings perceive the world is only one simple method of seeing. There are many ways to see life. Life has many meanings, and self realization is the understanding of all this.
Frederick Lenz
There is no way to measure it ... because there's no one to measure it.
Frederick Lenz
Transform yourself. It is not the opponent that will change, or the Frisbee. They will change in relation to your change. You must change.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Combine meditation with career as a yoga. You will find that your practice will not be any less powerful than a person who lives in a monastery. You might even excel because practice in a monastery can get very one-sided.

Frederick Lenz
The art of love is to embrace the world and that which lies beyond it.
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
The problem with monasteries, ashrams, convents is these institutions become extremely political. In other words, they're really small societies, and much of what you hope to avoid in societies you find there.
Frederick Lenz
There are no rules. Nothing you can do will take you to liberation therefore, nothing you avoid will help you along the path to liberation.. Everything is liberation.
Frederick Lenz
It's very funny. People do not want to achieve liberation or be happy. This is the basic guideline they teach you in Spiritual Training School.
Frederick Lenz
The thing about Buddhism is that it stresses attainment of something ineffable, that is where it differs from other religions in that it's more correct. We live in a world with promises of paradise.
Frederick Lenz
I think I've learned more from women than anyone else, and perhaps from love. What a wonderful testing ground.
Frederick Lenz
People project a grey energy that is very destructive to weaken you, to drain you - just as the snake uses position to capture its victim.
Frederick Lenz
Tragedy brings us closer to ourselves - it's the only thing that does.
Frederick Lenz
