Classroom Talk: 10/13/2021 - Only consistent, persistent inner-work can lead us to the threshold of the "Truth that sets us free."

Student Talks: 1/15/2021 - Key Lesson: Hoping to end the fear that accompanies us in so many of the unwanted moments in our life without first realizing the unconscious "machinery" that creates it is worse than useless; it's like blaming the path we're on for the pain we feel while walking it... when the truth is there's a stone in our shoe!

Featured Study Group Topic for the Week of March 19, 2018. You say your lines; I speak mine: A well-rehearsed play, Acted out in dreamtime. But when no one is the wiser, With the stage so dimly lit, None see that half of what is said... Is to no one there, Which suits the other half...just fine.
