There are two choices available in duality - one side or the other side. Everyting is formed from that.

You objectify yourself into thinking that you are a particular state of being. Frederick Lenz buddhismproblemthinking We live inside our mind. That's all there is. Everything that you experience is not external, it's internal. All your experiences are predicated upon your awareness field. Frederick Lenz buddhismfieldsmind We are cognizant of time, the sense that there is mutability. Time is change. It's the separation of eternity from itself. When eternity is separated from itself, we see it appear in different forms. Time is not a movement in space. Space is a movement in time. Frederick Lenz buddhismmovementspace You create time by joining events together. But they don't join together; there's no separativity. Frederick Lenz buddhismtogetherscience We cut up time and space and mind and place and being and non-being. We create a world of ideas. This is duality, pairs of apparent opposites.

Frederick Lenz buddhismviewsreality Reality does appear to exist, there does appear to be birth, youth, people appear to have children. But all of it's a dream. These are isolated moments that are only connected by perception. There is no separation.

Frederick Lenz buddhismperceptionscience If you stay in the attention you are in, then you can predict everything that will happen to you for the rest of your life. Frederick Lenz karmabuddhismattention Your choices are really very limited. They are limited by your level of awareness. If you can change your level of awareness radically, then you can change your destiny. Frederick Lenz karmabuddhismdestiny Anything that you might want to be is around somewhere. You can become it. You just have to get into the state of mind that allows that to occur.

Frederick Lenz buddhismawarenessperception Those who dissolve their body of perception completely are absorbed into what we would call nirvana. Frederick Lenz buddhismbodyperception Everything that you see here, in other words, is a reflection of a higher reality.
