Do you remember the opening lyric to the classic song "Love and Marriage?" If not, allow me to refresh your memory: "Love and marriage go together like a horse and carriage." Along with its memorable melody, this particular song has endured the test of time because hidden in the heart of its simple lyric is a celestial law about the power of attraction. If you recall, the rest of the lyric go...

This special writing complementing Guy's talk of November 21st, 2004, contains hidden treasures that hint at an entirely new way of living.

We human beings are born with an indefinable longing to grow beyond ourselves, to penetrate and illuminate the mysterious depths of our own heart. The ideal and pursuit of perfection is literally seeded into our soul; it pervades our very being. Our longing to walk among the stars does not seem out of reach; the wish to be eternal goes with us everywhere. In more down-to-earth terms, if we wis...

Topics covered: Spiritual ideas are worse than useless, unless you apply them in the laboratory of your everyday experience. You cannot fail, if you work; The problem with relying on a bucket-list to make you happy is that the bucket has no bottom; What we see now is only what is in the foreground, so that our experience is only what our attention is on in the foreground. But there could not be a foreground without a background...

Topics covered: The only times that you get upset in your life is when your psychological routine is disrupted; The acronym "ERAMS" from the doctor story stands for "Everything Revolves Around Me Syndrome"; Our addictions, whether physical or psychological, begin with the thought that the addictive routine will release us from the feeling of being unbalanced. Identification with the object of the addiction...

Topics covered: Everything that a human being imagines as being liberation is imagination. The truth cannot be captured in thought; You can only understand what is in you and what you have seen as part of yourself; The mind is in a constant struggle to reorganize the world it sees into what it imagines; You can't struggle to regain balance unless something in you believes it has been thrown off balance.

Topics covered: We are always in a struggle of some kind, hoping that our struggle will bring an end to all struggles. But one who struggles in the field of the opposites struggles in vain; There is a level of consciousness from which you can see with great clarity that left and right, up and down, right and wrong are not separate but always appear together; The consciousness that opposes life through negative...

Topics covered: Human beings cannot change themselves without the help of something that intervenes between them and their tendencies; If you ignore the celestial laws of life, you do so at your own risk. You can't ignore a true law without becoming anxious; There is no unnecessary suffering that is not born out of a lower order of consciousness believing that it is...

Topics Covered: We are presently cut off from the larger world that we're meant to be a part of; Whenever we think of what a larger world may be, we are only in the world of thought without knowing it. Our mind only knows how to imagine a larger world; The larger world is above us, beneath us, and awareness of above and below at the same time; Complaining about life is not the...

Topics Covered: If we want to change the world we see, then we have to change the way we see the world; Karma is not just cause and effect the way that we usually think of it. Karma is also permanently tied to our character. The actions that we take cannot be separated from our character; We are invited to participate in a self-organizing, intelligent, loving universe....

Student Talks: 1/8/2021 - Key Lesson: Into what do we gaze when looking through a telescope or microscope... other than into the yet discovered depths of our own mind? For whatever world we explore -- inwardly or outwardly -- what is it we uncover there... other than a corresponding knowledge of it; and, if this is true...
