And any time we don't know the immediate answer to some pressing question...

    In this short talk, "letting go" author Guy Finley talks about the necessity of seeing truths about ourselves that the majority of us does not want to see. The "self" that fights with life, in order to get what it wants, does not want to fade away. It exists to desire, then expire its desires, and then imagine new desires. See the pain inherent in trying to keep that circle of "self" in place...

    There isn't an instant in which you and I are not being touched by life for the purpose of life being changed by its own touch. Creation is never not happening. But to take part in it, to be a participant in it, requires that we understand that presently we are meeting life from a mind that is fast asleep in itself because it is intimately connected with desire that imagines a way to resolve itself.

    In this answer to a viewer's question, "letting go" author Guy Finley talks about the painful deception of fighting for one side in a conflict because we feel threatened by the other side. Nothing will ever change in any meaningful way by struggling on the level of the opposites. It is useless to try to change a world that is not interested in knowing what is useful to the soul.

    In this question and answer session, Guy explains that we are not meant to be the servant of a mind that believes conflict is the way to solve any problem. Seeing the part of us that finds a peculiar enjoyment in conflict is the beginning of separating ourselves from it.
