Letting Go

Classroom Talk: 2/8/2025 - Pretending to be a loving person, while inwardly being resentful, is pain; A nice deep breath will always help you to digest more of the many impressions that are raining down on you; The secret source of our painful, ongoing imperfections is our fear of them; We don't see the judgment in ourselves because we are identified with what we are judging; Creation is an unfinished business...
