    Topics covered: True exploration of your consciousness cannot be for the purpose of escaping from something, nor to confirm what you already know; The defintion of "insanity" is doing the same thing over and over again, and hoping for a different result. The same could be said about "addiction"; "Addiction" connotes the idea of unwilling service to something that is harmful.

    Classroom Talk: 1/4/2023 - There is no such thing as a compulsive pleasure, let alone a contented "slave" that lives under its lash; and yet billions of human beings serve some form of addiction, willing to turn a blind eye to how much they suffer for the sake of a pleasure they cannot keep, a security that cannot be possessed.

    Topics Covered: We are currently identified with an unconscious nature that is incapable of knowing anything real and permanent; We cannot be at peace with anything as long as we are identified with what we believe peace is; Our minds are always trying to take what we think is good and make it last forever. This level of mind makes an enemy out of anything in life that runs...

    Any time we feign anything, we do so out of fear that without that "persona" to protect us--to make that impression we want--we won't get what we want. This whole way of thinking is secret self-sabotage. Your consideration of the two special insights that follow will start you down the path to a whole new kind of self-command.

    Classroom Talk: 2/20/2019 - Part 1: It's impossible to change any moment that we complain about because - for one thing - the unwanted moments over which we complain do not even exist apart from the level of consciousness that always finds fault with their appearance. Part 2: The more we complain about any unwanted condition in life, the more certain we can be...
