The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who passing over a certain ridge comes upon an unknown Mountain outside his country and there catches a glimpse of a valley within a valley..

But How ... In that moment of Sweetness When you're relieved of all debt, Can you turn right 'round in yourself And in an instant forget ... How hard ... And unbearably heavy It has been just to be you, And yet still be so demanding Others must pay you your due?...

We are creatures of the outside. We know as real only the movement from without to within; From hand to mouth, we exist. Yet, Real life is inside...out. The Christ is before the world. His Light precedes the letters that spell His name. His Life is to the thoughts and ideas about Him as is... The fusion of the sun to the light it generates. And when the inner Sun stirs... ...M...

GF: Welcome to our chat tonight. Before we start, I want to examine the interior Work at the root of our efforts to realize Truth and the real reason why we attempt what we do along these lines.

We will honor it too, only not with fireworks that sparkle for a few moments and then fizzle out. Tonight we will work to realize the true nature of Freedom and what it takes to not just ignite this Living Flame within us, but to have its Life become as our own. To this end, to help all of us...
