Disturbance

One of the reasons that you live with the pain that you do is because you don't understand that you don't have to. And the only way you're ever going to shake off that pain -- get off "the pain train" - is if you start to get fighting mad about what is making you the kind of human being that you are. I don't know if you can see it. I hope that you can. As a race of beings, we have become...

Real life is revelation. There is no moment in which something isn't stirring us in a constant kind of disturbance for the purpose of revealing both what we are and what we can be. But, in moments we are brought alive by the sudden awareness of who and what we have been, our unconscious reaction is to either resist or try to control the revelation. There is however...

Within each of us, in our hearts and in our minds, there lives a special kind of light. In truth, it is everywhere.

Any condition we meet that is unwanted, such as a rude person, is not the cause of our stress. All conditions simply offer a momentary mirror for us in which it is possible to begin seeing what we have brought with us, within ourselves, into that moment.

Most people would rather complain about some painful life pattern than dare to meet the level of their own consciousness responsible for its repeated appearance.

We live in a stream of divine energy, and there is a difference between trying to be alive through thinking -- which produces the sensation of life -- and knowing that you are alive.

Eventually we reach the point where we start to realize that we are not going to find peace, contentment, happiness, strength, fearlessness -- all of the things that in our heart of hearts we wish we had -- outside of us.

In this video, Guy Finley talks about how trying to support an illusion steals our energy, as well as the energy of others. Real life does not drain a person of energy. Allow the moment to reveal the parts of us that are making this futile effort to be something that we imagine we are supposed to be.

Whatever it may be that we find wanting in someone else, we must learn what it means to give that very thing to him or her.

Guy Finley explains that being able to discern a true inner guide from a false one begins with understanding that any moment that disturbs us is actually intended to be a moment of illumination. Our first task in these moments is not to take action, but to work to be still and see the whole of the moment in a new way. The true guide is always a healing force, while the false guide is a conceal...
