Classroom Talk: 8/16/2023 - One of the ways the unconscious, divided mind hides the pain inherent in its conflicted nature -- not to mention its inability to bring an end to its suffering -- is by repeatedly condemning itself for doing, repeatedly, the very thing it keeps telling itself it doesn't want to do again.

Student Talks: 5/12/2023 - Key Lesson: There can be no "life after death" without realizing an order of Love that has no fear of dying. This Timeless Witness to its (own) creation doesn't see death as the end of life, but rather as its invisible partner in a ceaseless act of love.

Topic: The Courage to Face and "Erase" Whatever You're Afraid to See in Yourself (Classroom Talk 4/26/23)
