Nothing is distinct and separate. The waves of the ocean arise and have a separate birth, crashing on the shore, but then back into the ocean they go. They never left it. There is no movement in Nirvana.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
I began to go into samadhi, not just occasionally, but every day many times a day until I reached a point where I could no longer distinguish between ordinary and non-ordinary reality. For me it is all the same. I am in a state of continuous absorption in the Self.
Frederick Lenz
All action is generated by desire. It is the desire to live that causes us to reincarnate.
Frederick Lenz
The time we waste never comes again. The opportunities we miss never come again. The loves we lose never come again. Indeed, in this world of constant change we are fortunate that these things never come again.
Frederick Lenz
You are asleep and have forgetten that you are dreaming. You mistakenly believe you are awake.
Frederick Lenz
The life of an unenlightened person is filled with suffering.
Frederick Lenz
To become conscious of God, to become God's consciousness, to become God, to be God and to be beyond God, God being beyond God, God having an existence separate from the creation, to be that, to merge with that, to lose one's self and find one's self endlessly again and again in that is self-realization.
Frederick Lenz
Nobody can make you happy but yourself. Things occupy us, people occupy us, but they don't make us happy. If we are honest, what makes us happy is to experience spirit.
Frederick Lenz
There are countless dimensions filled with beings of other orders. Now this may sound peculiar to some people, but it was only several hundred years ago that we invented something called the microscope. Since then worlds whose existence we did not suspect have become commonplace
Frederick Lenz
The vast majority of beings who incarnate on this planet are at the stage of their evolution where power is the dominant theme. They are learning about power. That is why we live in a world where there are so many wars and so much destruction.
Frederick Lenz
Keep your mind centered on that which leads to light, intensively. Accept no substitute.
Frederick Lenz
Everything is amplified in the world of attention at night. People are more open to forces. That is why human beings cluster around each other in housing developments - a group force pervades and keeps the beings out.
Frederick Lenz
Most people make their choices predicated upon a feeling because analysis really isn't that good a tool.
Frederick Lenz
You don't need to be able to absorb a tremendous amount of the mystical kundalini to realize God.
Frederick Lenz
Death is not the end of who we are. It is only a brief pause in the endless cycle of our lives. Each of us is a spirit that cannot die.
Frederick Lenz
A good warrior, a seventh or eighth degree black-belt, will tell you there is no victory. It doesn't make you more powerful to win. It's just what you do. It's an expression of your personal power level.
Frederick Lenz
There is a beautiful flow to the study of Zen. If it is not making you happier, then you are not practicing correctly.
Frederick Lenz
All of the universes are but phantoms, mirages, and while they have their own essence, their own pantomime - they pass forgotten.
Frederick Lenz
A soul mate is not necessarily someone with whom you set up housekeeping. Your soul and their soul have a multi-incarnation attraction.
Frederick Lenz
As a teacher you just look at someone and you transmit to them what they need to know. Not simply a thought form, but you transmit an awareness level.
Frederick Lenz
Christ said, 'Seek and ye shall find.' Learn the ways to seek which will expedite your journey and make it more fun.
