"The Enlightenment Cycle" is a set of twelve teachings recorded by Rama - Dr. Frederick Lenz in 1992. This set is the basic coursework for students of American Buddhism. These teachings, the work of a mature teacher who had experimented with various ways of teachings Westerners, is a summation, a compressing of knowledge that represents an enormous body of information. While each teaching covers many subjects, within each discourse are potent kernels of wisdom that grow upon each reading. In "The Enlightenment Cycle," Rama empowers the reader with the light and energy of Enlightenment itself. With these teachings, the last set of formal talks he recorded, Rama created a new paradigm for teaching Buddhism in the West. "The Enlightenment Cycle" includes teachings on Meditation, Buddhism, Power, Balance, Wisdom, Enlightenment, Personal Happiness, Reincarnation, Career Success, Miracles, and the Enlightenment Cycle. For over 25 years, Rama - Dr. Frederick Lenz taught Buddhist meditation and yoga to more than 100,000 people. Throughout his life, his goal was to transmit the essence of Buddhism so that Western practitioners could achieve the highest state of self-realization - enlightenment.
