We all have experienced feeling angry and hurt when someone speaks their mind to us and is disrespectful. Being tolerant and nice only works to a point, and then we find ourselves unable to contain our feelings and helpless to deal with the anger we feel. In this Q&A Guy Finley reveals that the real question isn't, how do I stop getting angry with people, but rather, what can I discover about my own anger?
In this question and answer dialog, Guy talks about how regret over our actions does not change anything, while genuine remorse is connected to an awareness of our actual powerlessness, which allows for real change to take place.
Whenever we can't understand the nature of some unwanted situation we fall, by default, into the hands of a nature whose answer to this ache is always the same: get negative and then try to protect ourselves from anything that can't be otherwise controlled. The rest takes place in us on automatic pilot:
We can't have a true need without there existing that which is intended to fulfill it. But we have to allow the need to be there, wait, and watch the part of us that attempts to resolve the need with its own will. Then we discover that the resolution to any question we might have is within the question itself.
Topics covered: Enabling a negative state vs. creating it; Resistance is the parent of all problematic states; It's not conditions that create conflict, it's the nature that meets them; Getting negative is the continuation of the moment we don't want; The unwanted moment is the teacher; Something in us selects one of ten thousand impressions and sets itself against it; Studying resistance vs.
Topics covered: Our original nature; Outgrowing limitations; Adults as examples for children; All moments are for discovery; The true nature of safety; Anger is deflection; The nature of addictions; Seeing the good when things look bad; Depression and sadness.
In this short talk Guy adds a postscript to his full-length talk, ""Start Standing on Your Own Two Feet"", in which he clarifies that if we truly see that when we are angry, anxious, or worried we actually become the state of anger, anxiety or worry, then we also see that we are powerless in the face of that state. If it is our sincere wish to be different...

Topics covered: New Year's resolutions always revolve around wanting to keep the so-called "good" parts of what I call "me," and not-wanting what I call the "bad" parts; If you want to have a new life, you cannot bring old wants along with you; There is an innate longing to be in relationship with what cannot be expressed in words; True spiritual teachings are not recognizable by the consciousness that has faith only in things seen...
Topics Covered: We are created as beings to fulfill a very specific place in the whole of creation. Everything is ceaselessly being created, and we are made to play an integral role in that creation; That which is ceaselessly being created is ceaselessly being reborn, and our life is meant to be a part of that rebirth; The idea of helplessness is despised by all of us. In fact, up until now most...
Student Talks: 5/14/2021 - Key Lesson: Admitting to ourselves we are powerless to make permanent changes in ourselves is the true beginning of rising above all that troubles us about ourselves; for any and all such unadorned confession is the invisible entrance into another, higher order of being that is transcendence itself.
