More quotes by Frederick Lenz
People don't really want to be happy. They go out of their way to be miserable.
Frederick Lenz
Self-honesty is absolutely necessary in the practice of Buddhism.
Frederick Lenz
I recommend computer science to people who practice meditation. The mental structures that are used in computer science are very similar exercises done in Buddhist monasteries.

Frederick Lenz
The few women who have been admitted to the study are usually given a second-class status in which they are taught only the basics of self-discovery.
Frederick Lenz
The enlightenment experience is not what you think. How could it be anything that you can configure, anything you can imagine, any way that you think it should be?
Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
Purity is very fragile when it takes physical manifestation. It is very, very strong in its original aspect.
Frederick Lenz
It doesn't pay to listen much to what human beings have to say in their evaluation of you, since they don't evaluate themselves very properly.
Frederick Lenz
Start meditating with your eyes open, focusing as a warm-up, then focus on a chakra, then just let go and merge. Don't sit there and think or move into sleepy states of awareness, but move into high-powered states of attention.
Frederick Lenz
The only loser who walks away from a wise man is the one who walks away.
Frederick Lenz
Picture that the waves of golden light have now become a solid river of golden light that is constantly passing through you. Picture this golden light expanding beyond your body and filling up the entire room.
Frederick Lenz
In the Bhagavad-Gita, a book that I revere and respect, it's indicated that even women, along with animals, are capable of attaining enlightenment.
Frederick Lenz
If you can develop a connection, what we call an inner connection with the teacher, then it is not even necessary to be in the physical presence of the teacher, although it will always be stronger.
Frederick Lenz
All the joys in all the worlds of all beings who have ever been or will ever be, will never equal the perfection of one moment of absorption into the stillness of nirvana.
Frederick Lenz
If you're very, very conservative and you like that sort of practice, go find a very conservative Zen master and just do traditional Japanese practice, which is not that traditional actually.
Frederick Lenz
You must consider that there is opposition from other human beings and also non-physical forces that don't want you to succeed.
