Student Q&A with Guy on "How to Open Your Own Private Line with the Indwelling Divine" (4/25/21)
Posted: Monday, April 26, 2021
Meeting: Sunday, April 25, 2021
Duration: 35min 55sec
Topics Covered
Freedom is in seeing the nature of what imprisons us, which can be done any time and place.
The whole idea of escaping from yourself or from the world is a waste of time and energy.
When you are reminded of something, you are being reintroduced to something that has always existed in your consciousness.
Our consciousness doesn't just reflect the world around it, the world we see is also a reflection of our consciousness.
There is a direct relationship between the observer and the observed.
The only real change that is possible is first a change in consciousness.
Seven words/steps along the true spiritual path: Impression. Reception. Awakening. Revelation. Realization. Celebration. Glorification.
We are ceaselessly seeking a connection because we don't know that we are disconnected.
Our first responsibility is to be ready and willing with our attention to receive the Cosmic Communication that is always broadcasting.
As goes my attention, so comes my experience. Attention connects. Connection is exchange. Exchange is communication. Communication is communion.
Your experience of any moment is due to what you are attending to in that same moment.
The world lives to remind us of what the world in us doesn't want.
The more things we pursue to fill a feeling of emptiness, the more things we think we need to fill that emptiness.
We can know the beauty of the Divine even during the most unwanted moments.
The whole of yourself is the awareness of thoughts and feelings, not just the thoughts and feelings themselves and their content.
Meet the moment, even the unwanted ones, with all of you while using your attention to be aware of all of you.
Repair your relationship with yourself before you try to repair your relationships with others. Working on yourself IS repairing your relationships with others.
A part goes looking for a part. And, seeking its missing part, Casts all else aside, until... It casts away what it has found Because yet another hole Has opened up. And behold!... Comes a parting of the parts; And, even as one stumbles, Falling, drawn by gravity into Its own dark abyss...Yet Lo! Some other part now rises From the dread of emptiness, Seeking a part to seal the fear Of its own ever-widening rift.
