    Student Talks: 8/14/2020 - Key Lesson: Part 1: We can imagine almost anything save this one unimaginable exception: the dark walls that seem to close in on us in the midst of some unwanted moment are, in fact, nothing more than (parts of) a dark dream born of a mind so asleep to itself... it can't see it has unconsciously...

    We are not meant to keep our eye on some "tomorrow" from which we blindly borrow the false pleasure of what "might be." Such dreams serve nothing save the sleeping self, an imagined sense of "self" that always realizes, too late, that its "hope in things seen" is the same as tomorrow's sorrow.

    Any part of you that wants you to feel bad, angry, or sorry for yourself, including any thoughts or feelings it calls upon to help explain why you must ache, is the secret partner of the very pain it resists. This unholy negative nature exists for one reason only: to ensure that you continue contributing to the suffering it first creates, and then sustains with your unconscious consent.
