More quotes by Frederick Lenz
The pathway to enlightenment is joyful. It may sound harsh. I suggest just the opposite. It is rather easy compared to the possibilities of staying in pain and illusion.
Frederick Lenz
Advanced Teachers always forgive. It is inevitable that anyone who seek knowledge and power will make many mistakes.
Frederick Lenz
The teaching of the ten thousand states of mind, particularly as one advances further, is done through transmission. This is where we differ from teaching algebra or calculus.
Frederick Lenz
You can think whatever you want, you can create all the labels you choose, but the universe just is. You can come to terms with it or not. If you don't come to terms with it, we say you live in illusion.
Frederick Lenz
You did something noble. This will cause a release of energy. It causes a vibratory shift. It means you are moving into a different plateau of consciousness.
Frederick Lenz
Be aware of the dark side of others that seek to interfere with our evolution. Keep distant and closed to such beings, recognizing that they are part of the universal process too, but not a part that we need to be open to at this time.
Frederick Lenz
With a teacher it is necessary to be sensitive to their directions most of the time they won't say much. You have to be still and silent to understand.
Frederick Lenz
Many people who help me encounter a lot of resistance from other people and from forces.
Frederick Lenz
At the time of death, whatever you have focused on the most will determine your next life.
Frederick Lenz
The operative condition on this particular planet, the central mode which human beings follow, is fear. We are taught to fear.
Frederick Lenz
We are not really separate beings of light. That's a dream we are having, the dream of multiplicity. Meditation takes us beyond the moment to eternal awareness.
Frederick Lenz
In meditation we get a sense of the countless selves within ourselves, the different forms they take. Those that don't seem positive or helpful we push aside. Those that seem progressive we enjoy.
Frederick Lenz
From the Far Eastern perspective, 29 is considered a very special age.
Frederick Lenz
In the study of Zen you can learn how to strengthen and clarify your finite mind. Your finite mind is like a muscle when exercised it becomes stronger.
Frederick Lenz
Zen is a study. It's a discipline. It involves the active use of will to make things happen or not happen. These are the secrets of power.
Frederick Lenz
Lakshmi is a celestial being who lives in a higher plane of existence. Her mantra is Sring. When you chant it, it brings beauty and light into your consciousness.
Frederick Lenz
Humility is the time that you spend in love with existence.
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
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
Old Zen is the way of nothingness, the way of having a good time.
Frederick Lenz
