Self-realization doesn't imply loss, gain, even transition it's only a settling. The separate sounds on the beach, the birds, the waves, the wind. They all come together again, they blend, they harmonize.
Frederick Lenz
There's no point in getting frustrated at yourself. Just be truthful.
Frederick Lenz

To have to liberate everybody doesn't sound very free to me. You're gong to go liberate people who maybe don't want to be liberated.
Frederick Lenz
Beginning meditation is a process of unhooking ourselves from thought, being motivated to meditate. It is very exciting in the beginning because we see the tremendous jumps we make in awareness.
Frederick Lenz
