    Classroom Talk: 10/11/2020 - Part 1: We cannot live in fear of discovering the truth about ourselves, about our life... and hope to find the truth at the same time. Part 2: Here's an immutable spiritual law: we will never know all it's possible for us to be until we agree to consciously empty ourselves of all that we have been moment-to-momen...

    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.

    Part 1: We have no choice but to relive our past until we are present enough to see that we are about to do so... and then, have enough presence to step off of that time line. Otherwise, we will continue to run in unseen circles. Part 2: Here's the real reason why the idea of "starting life over" rarely -- if ever -- actually leads one to realize a truly New Life: for most of us, the whole ide...

    Authentic spiritual teachings are designed to do two things at once: first, to help us remember that our true nature -- Real 'I' -- is an unconditional strength born of an unconditional love. But, the second part of this teaching -- equal in every way to the first, and why the vast majority of aspirants reject true interior teachings -- is as follows: we must also agree to see where some fo...

    Nothing comes into creation other than through the marriage of opposing forces -- 'opposites' -- that cannot be 'made as one' without the appearance of a third force needed to reconcile them: this is an invisible Power and a Presence that -- in the same moment it moves to unify these opposites -- fulfills the purpose of their individual existence as well.

    Part 1: Awareness is the womb of order; this is why, in the end, it is always the Light of stillness -- and the silence that it births -- that alone has the power to make things right, to set them straight. Part 2: In the silence of perfect stillness creation pays homage to the Light that gives it birth.

    When you finally see that you can have almost anything in the world that you want, but that nothing you give to yourself actually brings an end to your wanting, then you'll slowly cease giving yourself to this painful nature that lives to want... which turns out to be what you really wanted all along.

    The living now is a timeless Presence; it is neither the outcome of the past, nor a door to some imagined future; passing time is just one of the ways in which that which is always present appears, but this apparent movement of time no more defines or confines Real Life than the rising and setting of the sun changes the nature of light.

    You can no more separate a painful pattern in your life from the unseen part of yourself responsible for its return... than you can blame your face for the unhappiness you see upon it while looking in the mirror.

    All anxious, or otherwise painful demands placed on someone or something outside of ourselves is the negative byproduct of an unconscious nature in its ceaseless struggle to ensure that it never has to see itself.
