Humility

There is a part of us that summarily rejects the moments when we see -- by a light that we would rather not see -- our actual condition. And in that moment of helplessness, we have a choice to recognize that were it not given to us in that moment by something greater than what we don't want to see, we would never be able to see it... and never have the opportunity to transcend ourselves...

Learn to be actively passive as you observe the nature that either accepts or rejects the moment. Be watchful of the tendency to instantaneously identify with your thoughts, opinions, expectations, and then begin to realize that there is another way in which you can meet life.

iving within us dwells an order of being that knows, without thinking about it, what is authentically good for us and others.

We are at our core a creature of the stars: beings whose original and celestial stuff is not only born of light, but also intended to live unbound.

There is nothing that takes place in life, including all of the ugliness in it, that isn't part of our preparation for discovering within ourselves the eternal ability to transcend what has been disturbed.

We have not been given this precious life in order to go through it resisting everything that doesn't suit us; rather we are created to grow through whatever we meet along the way.

10 Exercises for increasing your spiritual memory. Remember that every effort you make to remember to remember God increases His interest in you.

Remastered Classic Talk: 7/29/15 - No one can be made stronger that doesn't first agree to meet one's own weakness. No one can become wiser without first agreeing to meet one's own ignorance.

Never forget this one last fact: left unattended, weakness and ignorance grow stronger by themselves.
