Takeawys from Guy's Talk
- We don't want to go through what we will awaken in another human being if we were to do what we know needs to be done or said
- The understanding I have of my negative reactions is given to me by the consciousness that lives in fear
- Every reaction comes with an explanation for itself
- What's true never needs to defend itself, and what's false never can defend itself
- We don't see our reactions, we see what our reaction gives us to see that explains and justifies the reaction
- No effect can change the cause of itself
- A reaction is the mechanical ripple effect of a cause that has come into it which it can't comprehend
- You've been having the same reactions to what seem like different events your entire life
- The consciousness that tries to protect itself only ensures that what it feels threatened by remains in place
- When you reach a point you sense you've been to before and seek an answer beyond what you are, you miss the mark
- The light is within and around you at all times
- Our attention has been commanded so that we are taken out of the moment of revelation
- All psychological reactions are binary -- they are always for something or against something
- Reactions can't solve anything by leading us to anything new because they belong to the content of the past
- Every reaction is the reincarnation of the same level of consciousness that gives rise to it
- I don't know what to do with the pain of my reactions
- The world isn't responsible for my pain, what's responsible is the consciousness that is trying to reincarnate itself
- The rebirth of the human being is moment to moment to moment
- To see the truth requires a sacrifice
- Every reaction we have is the result of a judgment, but it's not "my" judgment. The judge is there in my consciousness prior to my awareness of it
