Quotes from Frederick Lenz

When you meditate you are accessing eternity. You are plugging yourself into that source which is all light and all beauty and all perfection.

If you are afraid of other people take a martial arts class. The best way to overcome fear is learn to be proficient in martial arts.

You can just sweep the floor generally and gain nothing from it. Or you can figure out the best way to sweep the floor, put your power into it, use it as a concentration exercise, and be meditative.

I recommend, for many people, the study of computer science. Our natural resource in America is the mind. The mindset in computer science is very similar to the mindset in Zen.

Computer science is fascinating. As you study computer science, you will find that you develop your mind. It is literally like doing Buddhist exercises all day long.

Computer science is the most misunderstood field there is. You are being paid to solve puzzles. For a person who has practiced meditation in past lives, that is the way your mind works.

Humility is courage, the open acceptance of your own perfection.

Have the courage to be selfless in a world were such qualities are not admired. Dare to be differnt. Be crazy!

Since you're going to die anyway, why not go do whatever it is you are in the mood to do. To postpone anything is ridiculous, if it's important to you.

Dying is easy; it's living that's difficult.

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.

I have seen people who practice yoga and Buddhism who are scared to death of the sorcery powers of others. This is absurd.

Meditation is a refocusing on symbols. It's not emptiness. We are using symbols, doorways to step from one world to another, from darkness into light, from death to immortality.

Attraction and aversion create a sense of self. There is no self. They are just thoughts. They are insubstantial. When you die, all the ideas of self will go away.

Each one of you has created a sense of self. That's what the tonal does. Each one of you is taught a system of maintenance that has been developed by humankind from your birth till your death.

Everything goes through the cycle of birth, growth, maturation, decay and death. But all of this is an illusion. Everything we see is an illusion.

You have all died many times before and none of you look the worse for it.

You don't really have a choice. You are alive and you will die.

Death is a doorway. It is a very small, thin doorway and only a portion of our being can walk through.

In the end we just realize there's no end. It just goes on forever, in countlessly new forms. That's what's wonderful about the universe there's no escape from living. Death doesn't even end it.

When you die you pass into inner worlds and continue to perceive. Death is not the dissolution of the self. Death is rather just a change in perception.

If you can die, you are confused because death is a perception of something ending and something else obviously beginning, which means we're still hung up on qualities.

Anything that ends with death isn't really mind, just the things that pass through a mind.

Death is simply a change in perception. It is not an end to perception as a finite being.
