    Classroom Talk: 12/31/2023 - Just as the eyes that see the sun cannot understand its light by which they behold the shape and beauty of all things, neither can the heart understand the love that calls it to know and embrace all things. Eye and heart are creatures in time, but Light and Love are not. Even so, they meet; in their union is the mystery, miracle, and fulfillment of our yet realized Divine possibility.

    Classroom Talk: 6/18/2021 - The fear of -- and unconscious resistance to -- seeing the depth and breadth of one's own weakness is not the same as realizing one's actual state of (spiritual) helplessness in that same moment. In more ways than will ever be spoken the consciousness of "helplessness" is next to Godliness... whereas fear is the helplessness feared.

    Classroom Talk: 5/9/2021 - 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.

    Part 1: It is a distinct stage in the development of the aspirant when -- rather than being easily distracted by some imagined consolation for his pain, or by concluding who is to blame for it -- his first and real preference in the moment is to increase his consciousness of his condition, and not to find ways around it.

    There is only one requirement if our wish is to 'boldly go where no one has gone before....' And that is to realize that not only are we the explorer, but the new frontier is either found within us, or not at all.

    What is unwanted within us changes by holding it in the Light (of awareness), not by hiding it from sight!...

    Topics covered: Waiting on something vs. waiting in presence; The divided mind always waits on something to identify with; The nearest you come to having God's life is when you are the furthest away from thinking you do; Real help isn't finding something that gets me through a problem, it's realizing that I am the problem; 'I never ask where I am on the mountain, I just keep climbing'; Anyone...

    If you want to measure the degree to which some thought or feeling is harmful to the development of your soul, just see the extent to which its presence separates you from remembering your Divine possibilities.

    No desire can be satisfied (made whole) by the object it imagines any more than eating a great dinner means you'll never be hungry again! Matter is powerless to complete the immaterial.

    There can be no spiritual lesson learned from any painful moment when one's suffering is only over the loss of some imagined gain.
