206 Philosophy of Mind quotes by Frederick Lenz

All Philosophy of Mind quotes Frederick Lenz’s page

Frederick Lenz notes that a growing population makes meditation and psychic perception harder, and that society often teaches us to avoid direct reality. He encourages a detached eye that looks outward, urging practice of focused attention on a single point while bringing wandering thoughts back. Lenz reminds us that silence may reveal the self, that our experiences are endless, and that true awareness lies beyond all thoughts.
