Student Talks: 3/1/2024 - Key Lesson: Just as the eyes that see the sun cannot understand its light by which they behold the shape and beauty of all things, neither can the heart understand the love that calls it to know and encompass all things. Eye and heart are creatures in time, but Light and Love are not. Even so, all meet; and to be a silent witness to their inexpressible union... is to realize the pathless journey to the indwelling Divine.

Student Talks: 1/19/2024 - Key Lesson: The greatest possibility for acquiring the Divine energy required to facilitate the transformation of oneself is found only in the moments of higher awareness that, itself, can only be realized in the same time and place of one's greatest resistance to that moment.

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.

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.

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.

Student Talks: 9/16/2022 - Key Lesson: Being convinced to worry over some darkness that "might be" just around the corner is an unseen interior shell game; (it's) a "play and lose" operation run by parts of us that know if they can't keep us resisting some impending fear they will have no choice but to disappear!

Student Talks: 9/2/2022 - Key Lesson: Who is to be counted the most dangerous of all my enemies other than the one I see as being a "friend"... who is not.

Student Talks: 10/1/2021 - Key Lesson: Here's why it makes no difference who, or at what we point the finger of blame for any mental or emotional suffering we're given to feel at the time: until we become aware of the unconscious role our own hand plays in the misery of these unwanted moments... nothing can change.

Student Talks: 9/18/2020 - Key Lesson: Spiritual freedom will never be realized by avoiding what disturbs us, but rather by the work of consciously illuminating what still dwells in the dark of us... that is (always) so quick to find someone, or something to blame for its pain.

Student Talks: 11/15/2019 - Key Lesson: Be wary of any "wisdom" that can feel insulted or impugned by some thoughtless comment, or otherwise challenging condition: real intelligence cannot be insulted... let alone agree to be defined, confined, or otherwise defiled by some unconscious reaction unfolding in the dark of oneself.
