Identity

Student Talks: 05/15/2026 -

Is not the whole world being reborn every moment?
Why not just step up, and go in…
There’s no waiting list.

Student Talks: 04/03/2026 - By itself, no thought has the power to trouble us; its authority over us is equal to the extent we are deceived into identifying with its particular, temporary character.

Part 1: This moment -- now -- is the timeless ground, seed, and fulfillment of all that is possible for us to be; to discover its riches is the first step in realizing, and then reclaiming our True Self.

Part 2: Wanting to be anything other than aware of what creation is ceaselessly showing you about yourself is wasting what Life itself wants for you: a chance to realize, and become as one with a new and higher level of consciousness attainable in no other way.

Remastered Classic Talk: 12/28/16 - In this world we are seized by desires that affirm the illusion of the opposites wherein, from out of their appearance, is born a separate sense of self that feels it must possess what is desired, or "die". In the spiritual world there is a holy desire; but being seized by it leads to the abnegation of identification; because what holiness desires is atonement: the end of the false sense of self created by unconsciously identifying with any opposite.

Student Talks: 10/31/2025 -The Real Gift of Life is the grace to see that each moment -- inseparable from our awareness of it -- is always complete in and of itself. And further, that whenever we act as a silent witness to that revelation -- quietly observing whatever new form of life is conceived within it -- we too are completed and renewed, accordingly.

Topics covered:  "You keep looking in the wrong places for what you are hoping to find when you get there in a time to come; The condition that we see is not responsible for the conflict that we feel; When reality challenges what we have imagined conditions should be, so that we can be who we think we have to be, we fall into conflict and suffering."

Emergency! Then urgency!
Oh my... such an important me.
In this blindness, it's unkindness
Too late I see... the insensitivity
Of unseen self-captivity.

Topics covered:  "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." -- New Testament; Nothing in nature grows in a straight line. There is no straight line because there is always a creative force is acting upon the new creation. The force of creation, nor the creation that it is acting upon, are ever the same; The negative states that seem to come out of nowhere will tell you the reasons for their appearance, which always includes some form of "I'm innocent, you're guilty." Negative reactions will tell you why you are the way you are.

It is impossible to let go of any painful thought or troubling feeling until we see the parts of us that are secretly clinging to it.

Topics covered:  Stop making life so hard for yourself and others. Stop believing that it is other people and circumstances that make life hard on you; We go to war with people whenever they deny us something that we think we are owed; Do your solutions bring an end to having enemies? If they did, the world would have stopped making war long ago.
