Classroom Talk: 11/12/2023 - Anytime we struggle in the dark of ourselves -- trying to change our nature -- our efforts are misdirected; our real work is to learn to see by the light that dwells in that darkness, and to know the truth of ourselves, as (it is) revealed.

Classroom Talk: 6/25/2023 - Part 1: Enlightenment is instantaneous, but keeping the lights on is another story altogether! Part 2: Intention is the front runner of a race yet to be run, a new order of will yet to be tested, but waiting to be realized.

Classroom Talk: 6/27/2021 - Contemplation is sustained attention on a question the heart holds in its keeping, knowing, full well, that the mind -- of itself -- cannot answer. This form of sustained conscious inquiry is the ground of true meditation: it is creation aware of itself.

Classroom Talk: 8/28/2020 - Just as the sun consumes her own substance as fuel, transforming matter into life-giving light and heat, so too are we created to consume ourselves; to transform the base aspects of a separate self - the many conflicting characters inherent in our divided consciousness - into a single, higher form of...

Meditation Talk: 10/25/2019 - Be here. Be still. Quietly remember the Divine presence that dwells within you... and you will know -- without taking thought -- the following truth that sets you free: Even as all around you everything changes, your True Self is unchanging. Fearlessness follows this discovery in much the same way as....

Meditation Talk: 8/30/2019 - Mind is not intellect itself, nor is (our) Heart the seat of emotion alone; real mind is the marriage of a higher order of intellect and heart: wherein feeling is wisdom -- and wisdom is, in turn, feeling. These seemingly different parts (of us) were never intended to be separate... as they now are for the majority of humanity...

Meditation Talk: 7/19/2019 - An ever-widening meditation -- that can, and should be practiced everywhere, under any circumstance, (other than when one must employ practical thought) -- is how we steadily bridge the illusion of duality... ending the painful illusion of imagining ourselves as apart from the Divine source of our (own) soul.

Meditation Talk: 6/28/2019 We cannot learn the truth of ourselves -- let alone hope to be set free by it -- as long as even one part of us refuses that revelation -- regardless of how impossible it may feel to stand there... in its Light.

Meditation Talk: 5/3/2019 Since there is no self apart from the relationship in which it appears, this means there is no awakening, no liberation, apart from relationship. This means that any and all forms of "transformation" are not really a change in some separate "self" that seeks its own idea of being free, but rather what is called...

Meditation Talk: 3/8/2019 - Here's the last thing we want to see, but that should be first on our list of things to realize: we create the experience of any unwanted moment in our life. How can that be true? Because our experience of life is inseparable from the level of (our) consciousness defining it moment-to-moment. And, if true, which it is, it goes to...

Classroom Talk: 2/27/2019 - Until we learn to see - and accept each moment as being perfect in its native appearance - regardless how unwanted it seems at first - we will never know the incorruptible peace and contentment that comes with knowing - and agreeing to embrace - the Truth that sets us free.

Meditation Talk: 12/7/2018 - Blessed apartness. Perfect stillness. Holy accord. Restitution complete. (30-minute talk followed by a 30-minute meditation)...
