Classroom Talk: 9/10/2023 - We remain convinced that if we feel like something is missing in our life, then the answer must be to acquire it; this has always been our go-to solution when suffering over some discontent.

Classroom Talk: 8/6/2023 - Part 1: There is no relief from the conflict and grief born of unrealized self-ignorance, which is why it's wise to seek self-knowledge.

Classroom Talk: 10/16/2022 - We are never judged for whatever may be our present degree of spiritual blindness. Only when we turn a blind eye to a truth Life asks us to see about ourselves do we unknowingly judge ourselves, and where the suffering that follows is the result of having looked away.
