What is evil? There is no such thing. In Buddhism we don't recognize evil and therefore we don't give it any power over us.

More quotes by Frederick Lenz
You have to come to the world of enlightenment with open hands, not clinched fists, without an agenda.
Frederick Lenz
The world is filled with people who understand. I personally value people who don't understand. People who understand have nothing more to learn. People who don't understand have hope. Do you understand?
Frederick Lenz
Some people travel to other dimensions in their astral bodies when they meditate.
Frederick Lenz
Kirshna's message is eternal - fight!
Frederick Lenz
The majority of times when a man thinks he has been the instigator, which men like to think, in sexual and romantic experiences, that has not been the case.
Frederick Lenz
When your thoughts come and you're trying to stop them, simply say No. Learn the mantra No. Every time a thought comes in your mind ... just say no.
Frederick Lenz
If one becomes enlightened, as I did in past incarnations, we leave the structural universes behind. We don't even have past incarnations because the form that had those incarnations has dissolved into the clear light of reality.
Frederick Lenz
The relationship between the student and teacher is ultimately important. In higher spirituality we don't study a subject as much as a person.
Frederick Lenz
There is no way to measure it ... because there's no one to measure it.
Frederick Lenz
Life isn't complicated. The reason it appears complicated to you is because you are in a very distorted state of mind. That's the basic premise of Buddhism - that you're in a very distorted state of mind.
Frederick Lenz
Discrimination involves reflection and absorption.
Frederick Lenz
Your very success is what's going to destroy you. The survival mechanism that you've developed is the very thing which will cause the downfall of your subtle physical body.
Frederick Lenz
In Nirvana, it is you, my friend, who goes away. You take an eraser and erase yourself. It's like the Road Runner cartoons where in the middle of the cartoon, the hand of the artist appears on the screen and erases the Road Runner.
Frederick Lenz
Other networks seek to interfere with the natural process of chaos. Enlightenment is chaos, complete beyond conception
Frederick Lenz
Naturally, to follow dharma, we have to find out what it is. You have to struggle with it. The answer will not come easily. You will be swayed by your desires, conditioning, and those around you who have ideas about what you should do, what is proper, what is improper.
Frederick Lenz
Do not be selfish and feel new people will take more of the teacher's attention and you won't get it. That's nonsense. With that attitude, you won't get it. The teacher sees that attitude and will have very little to do with you.
Frederick Lenz
To not realize that everyone we think about affects us psychically, to not realize that life is a field of power, is criminal, in my opinion. If you are a sensitive and evolved being, it is simply criminal.
Frederick Lenz
You can transmit the kundalini physically when people are there, and of course, long distance. It is energy, inter-dimensional energy.
Frederick Lenz
There is a sense of competition in Zen. You are competing with your thoughts and trying to overcome them.
Frederick Lenz
People who are drawn to meditation have had lots of incarnation in the world of experience, and we know the score. We know that experience is great, but it's not enough.
Frederick Lenz
