Student Talks: 3/4/2022 - Key Lesson: Here is the real reason why so very few ever realize a conscious relationship with the Divine: higher Love is consummated only in the awareness and acceptance of one's own spiritual poverty... so that one's soul is slowly matured through an ever-deepening humility that is, itself, the doorway to Heaven.

Topics covered: Participating in the moment is the same as using the moment for revelation of yourself; Spiritually speaking, attempting to achieve freedom FROM something is the same as not wanting what that thing is revealing about yourself; Everything we do in order to be free puts us under more laws, which is more captivity; Your nature is your future.
