Classroom Talk: 4/24/2024 - Here's why truth teachings through the ages speak of our being "blind," as well as why -- if we hope to know the Divine -- we need new "eyes to see": As surely as the still waters of a mountain lake reflect the light of the moon, or that an injury starts to heal in the same moment incurred, the answer to the question "who am I?" is always in plain sight.

Student Talks: 3/8/2024 - Key Lesson: Once we understand that all forces - even the seemingly contradictory ones - are secretly complementary, we stand on the threshold of not only discovering the lost secret of letting go and letting God...but, at the same time, find that we are well on our way to realizing the unconditional holiness of life.

Classroom Talk: 12/27/2023 - The light we need to be free is always with us; it is at once a creation of life, and the Life that creates it... where "both" are revealed in every moment of life, inseparable from the Divine life within which they ceaselessly unfold. Enlightenment is one and the same as (a) conscious relationship with this timeless order of Being.

Classroom Talk: 10/11/2023 - Part 1: We can't hope to change what comes out of any given moment until we change the one within whom it appears. Part 2: The task is not to be perfect as imagined, an illusion supported by the pain of unrelenting self-judgment; rather the real task is to do the interior work of seeing ourselves as perfectly as we can regardless of how much we would rather not.

Classroom Talk: 6/21/2023 - Spiritual ignorance is like the deep darkness of a moonless night; and though it has no substance of its own, it not only obscures the path that leads back home, but ensures we will walk right by it... each time and place it makes its momentary appearance.

Classroom Talk: 6/14/2023 - The higher purpose of suffering is to ground us in the existence and Presence of an altogether higher level of (our own) Being... where neither time, nor the pain it harbors holds a claim on us. Discovering there's a choice like this transforms any moment of feeling lost, confused, or resentful into the possibility of realizing it as the new and higher opportunity it represents.

Student Talks: 3/31/2023 - Key Lesson: Love professed is not proven true until tested.

Student Talks: 2/10/2023 - Key Lesson: Here's an inconvenient truth: being "sorry" changes little, to nothing; only (spiritual) sorrow can help lead us to the liberation of transcending the unrepentant self.

Classroom Talk: 11/23/2022 - No one has freedom of speech who -- for fear of being isolated, cast out and left alone -- feels unable to speak the truth they would, or to question what they see as false. And how much more so does the above hold true when it comes to the freedom to see oneself as one is... without endless self-judgment, and all of its painful justification...

Classroom Talk: 11/2/2022 - The only thing (in life) that goes from zero to a million miles per hour -- in a single painful movement -- are negative reactions; they are the unseen source of all self-compromising choices, driven on by an almost limitless dark kind of "anti-matter" called unconscious resistance.

Classroom Talk: 8/10/2022 - For those who love truth no door is locked, no secret is kept; all that is needed to be free is given... freely; and Life asks but one thing of us in exchange for this Gift: the willingness to unwrap ourselves.

Student Talks: 7/29/2022 - Key Lesson: True spiritual liberation is inseparable from seeing, and agreeing to undergo whatever these revelations make evident must now change in one's character. Such Divine intervention never moves in a single direction, but rather occurs in all directions at once, like the radiations of the sun. This order of Light doesn't transform the darkness...
