It takes quite a bit of time to become enlightened. But it really is not so different from learning any other art; all you need is time, a good teacher, and practice (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
You must learn to meditate and stop your thoughts. You must overcome all egotism and selfishness by serving others. You must cleanse your mind so that enlightenment will find a happy place to reside there (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
When you could be sloppy, you’re not. When you could be indulgent, you’re not. When you could be sad, you laugh instead. If you fall down, you pick yourself up again and again and again (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
You could go through incarnations forever and never become enlightened, unless of course you do something about it (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
Only alone can you go into eternity. Only alone can you feel the transcendental light. It is not a shared experience because if it is shared, you are down in duality (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
You can’t teach someone to be enlightened. It’s something you have to go and do. You can’t teach someone to meditate well. It’s something you have to go and do (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
Help the world in any way that you want to. I have found that the more light you give and spread, the more you will evolve (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
The secret teaching was the bodhisattva ideal, to live for others, for the welfare of all beings. That’s enlightenment, not some flashy state of luminosity (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
You have to refine your being. You have to go through all of the stages and steps of erasing yourself through service to others with purity, humility, integrity (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
Compassion and empathy are not the same as feeling sorry for oneself. They are emotions that extend our perceptual ranges (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
Energy is gained by giving energy. When we give energy, we gain energy. This is different than having someone manipulate you and take your energy (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
The essence of the teachings is to lose self importance and to care more for the welfare of others and the magical world around us, than we do for ourselves and our own self images (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
In my estimation it’s silly to go out and spend your time aiding people if you don’t have your own act together yet. So I’d rather you spend the time, get it right, and it’ll all work out a lot better (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
It’s suggested that enlightenment has some tremendous compassion, some driving necessity to help humanity. I don’t think that’s the case at all. I think humanity wishes it were the case since it’s humanity that writes the various scriptures (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
To have to liberate everybody doesn’t sound very free to me. You’re gong to go liberate people who maybe don’t want to be liberated (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
By perfecting the practices of zazen and mindfulness, by learning patience and love and by realizing the essential emptiness of all phenomena, you will discover nirvana (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
Your mind is made up of light. We call it the dharmakaya, the clear light of reality. The transcendental eternal light is everywhere. It’s the light of God or whatever you want to call it (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
The white light is the joker in the deck. It creates transmutations that are completely unpredictable, which is what makes it fun, which is why it scares the hell out of most people (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
Life reorders you when you go into the clear light. Even the causal structure is liquefied. The clear light of reality, the dharmakaya, changes us into beings of light (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
Within the universe there is a pure light. It is a light that is beyond all darkness. It does not give way to anything. It is the light of existence, the dharmakaya (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
Enlightenment is a timeless void. It’s an emptiness that’s filled with the most excellent light (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
The miracle of enlightenment is that you take the self and let it dissolve in the white light of eternity (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
The only reason you feel pain is because you’re so busy looking at yourself instead of looking at the wonderful patterns of light. If you become absorbed in the wonderful patterns of light, then there’s no pain (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
All things are void. So how possibly could there be any obscurations since everything is void, when you’re void itself? There’s only the void. In the void, there’s only shining, perfect clear light of reality (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
Nirvikalpa samadhi or sahaja samadhi is all the way up. You get above the cloud line to the land of eternal snows and it’s ecstasy beyond ecstasy (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
The planes of light give you the power to rise above circumstance, the power to rise above your desires and your aversions (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
There are different worlds, endless worlds, and different beings come from different worlds. In my particular case, I come from the stillness. We call it the dharmakaya, the clear light of reality. I know it quite well (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
I live in the constant newness of aspiration. Whatever I think, I ignore. Whatever I feel, I don’t trust. Yet I listen to my thoughts and follow my feelings (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
I think I’m on an angle. I’m on an oblique angle through all of existence (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
In my very early childhood, when I was only 3 or 4 or 5, I would enter for many hours into meditative states in which the world would become light and energy and I would transcend the boundaries of the senses (Frederick Lenz Quotes)
