Classroom Talk: 11/26/2023 - Since it is impossible to be unhappy over what you don't have without first having been subjected to some form of unseen painful comparison, this means the true source of one's unhappiness isn't because of some passing condition, but rather is a creation of an unconscious nature -- punishing itself -- each time it negatively reacts to some imagined happiness lost.

Classroom Talk: 8/13/2023 - Negative reactions -- in fact any form of painful resistance -- prevail only when we fail to remember it is -- at once -- our Divine right, and our work to transform, and transcend them.

Classroom Talk: 5/21/2023 - Nothing in the universe can make you relive some painful moment from your past as long as you choose to live in the self-renewing awareness that no old dark thought has the power to define you, let alone drag you down.

Classroom Talk: 3/12/2023 - Before we can hope to stop reliving any unwanted moment from our past, we must see that our experience of it is inseparable from how we ourselves have named it.

Classroom Talk: 11/20/2019 In real life there are no "tracks" to follow, but thought runs along the tracks of memory, and memory always departs from, and returns to the same station: the PAST. This explains why it seems we never arrive at that divine station in life called "True Freedom"... because real freedom is not in time.

Classroom Talk: 12/5/2018 - No (psychological) self exists without memory; no (psychological) memory exists without thought; no thought exists by itself. And yet, nothing is more alone and isolated than is the thinker-... regardless of how many thoughts may emerge to support and sustain the appearance of its temporary identity.

Classroom Talk: 11/21/2018 - The past sits in constant judgment of the Presence moment; first comparing, then imprisoning it to the inevitable corruption inherent in the constant replay of one's own memory: (this is) a completely unconscious nature... that not only already "knows" how things should be, but that summarily resists any challenges to its carefully crafted reality.
