Classroom Talk: 11/1/2023 - When it comes to being in conflict with one another -- at whatever level or scale in which that painful relationship plays itself out -- each of us is responsible for what is happening to both of us.

Student Talks: 10/6/2023 - Key Lesson: The real reason life feels like it's so full of hard choices that we have to make is because, in our spiritual sleep -- and in the dreams we dream therein -- we stand between a self-created "rock and a hard place": a perpetual captive of the unconscious conflict born of struggling -- in vain -- to protect what we first imagined we must have to be free... from its unseen opposite: an equally imagined fear... that we might lose it.

Topics covered: Every thought that you have about yourself, and what you should do to improve your place in life, is a waste; You cannot complete the moment without at the same time completing yourself. They are one and the same thing; If you keep repeating the same experience, it means that you have not really learned the lesson that comes with the experience. Spiritual lessons ride in on the back of events...

Student Talks: 7/21/2023 - Key Lesson: Part 1: Whenever you make someone else's karma your own, you'll always blame them for it. Part 2: An incomplete mind creates incomplete actions; incomplete actions have consequences. Part 3: Word made flesh... or, "war" made flesh; that's the question that sits at the heart of every moment of life, whether it is wanted, or not.

Topics covered: The consciousness that is the present state of humanity keeps trying, in vain, to create a kingdom of heaven for itself; When we take the thought to be the thing, then we have belief in the thought; People who act cruelly are themselves acting from an inner cause that they know nothing about; The more you want something or someone, the more that thing or person will resist you...

Student Talks: 5/19/2023 - Key Lesson: There is no struggle in seeing; and certainly, whatever is being observed does not resist being seen. So, if and when there's some instant form of painful resistance to the appearance of any given moment, it's always due to the nature of the seer.

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...

Topic: Transform Hurtful Arguments Into a Healing Space (Classroom Talk 4/19/23)

Topics covered: There is no such thing as the winning side of an argument, because the reason we argue with others is that we are in distress; The mind complains, "You are giving me an experience of myself that I don't like." And so we argue because that part of us is sure that we must change others in order to change our present experience. But our experience of life is nothing but the experience of ourselves.

Classroom Talk: 4/19/2023 - The less we try to "teach" others about their shortcomings, the more insight we gain into our own.

Topic: Step Over the One Great Stumbling Block to Self-Liberation (Classroom Talk 4/12/23)

Topics covered: When you are afraid and you listen to what that fear tells you to do, then fear is your guide and your god; Until you know what is beyond fear, you will not know what is beyond death, because there is a connection. If you live in fear of death your whole life, then you do not have a life; Human beings are the very source of the thing they say makes them suffer.
