- We have been educated, inculcated, and conditioned to believe that our task is always to appear as if we know who we are and what we're doing, and anything that would challenge that is immediately seen as an enemy. But in this work, that nature that would hide its weakness is the enemy, because it ensures that we never bring into the light of understanding that which alone can change and transform that nature that lives with that kind of weakness and works to hide it.
- A weakness becomes a strength when it changes everything that individual is in relationship with. Anything that changes inside of a person changes the whole relationship they're in from that moment forward.
- Pitiful human beings do nothing but walk around and try to figure out how to prosper according to their idea of what it means to be a successful human being.
- Our view in moments when something in us is challenged is that in that moment, life is doing something to me. The truth is that life has not done something to you, but that life as it is, "is done." Every moment, it is done.
- “It’s done” means that revelation, by its nature, includes what is observed and the observer, and they are not separate. But because of the mind, I believe that I'm different than what I see.
- Everything that follows the moment of revelation is hearsay. It's just the mind talking to itself about something that it believes it's separate from, so that it can have a say in what's done.
- Real transformation is not a change in the life around you, it’s that life is transformed because there is a change within you.
- Fear basically designs and designates the experience of myself. But to see the fearful nature as it appears, changes the appearance of the nature, because the relationship with it is changed, and “it's done” in that moment.
- Our nature cannot be separated from the experience of the moment that reveals it to itself. This nature cannot be separated from the moment that reveals itself to itself, because that's what the moment is doing. That's the revelation. They appear together.
- To see is a kind of doing that ensures what is done in that moment follows the lines of the light that reveals it. To see my part, by whatever form that unconscious consent has allowed for the perpetuation of the weakness, to see the part I play in it is the end of that weakness and the end of the nature that has perpetuated it.
- If you see the nature wrongly involved in the moment, then in that moment the first becomes the last and the last becomes first.
- When you see “it's done,” the fear is gone, because there's no longer a “you” trying to escape what's done. Now you're at peace. You know that God is good, because you suddenly see that the very essence of the weakness that you feared your whole life was a seed. It actually was something that was intended to be changed. When you stop trying to change or escape it, it's left there in the light that reveals it, and “it’s done.” Weakness is exchanged for strength. You can't create the exchange; you’re created to be the place of exchange.
- As we are now, a moment becomes a carryover instead of us letting the moment carry us past the unconscious nature.
- The weakness can't be transformed without the character that was perpetuating it being made into something new.
- Having an enemy is unfinished business, and it's unfinished because you're not finished with the love of the sense of yourself that's produced in having enemies.
- There is an unseen constant conflict that is the creation of a mind that creates distance between itself and what it wants and what it doesn't want.
- In those moments where we are sitting and feeling like, "I don't want to be helpless,” when you see it's done, there's no “you” that needs help. Not my strength, but thy strength. Not my light, but thy light.
- The end of my time isn't the end of me; it’s the end of a nature that needs time in order to get done.
- When you think, ”If I could just see the truth, then I'd be free,” you fail to see that you are where you are, with what you are, given what you're given, for the purpose it is given “to you.”
- There is a nature that cannot stand not having a tomorrow in which it won't be itself. You must learn to bear it. Do the best you can with the pain that you are being given, but don't let the pain you are being given do anything other than show you the nature that is, in part, responsible for its appearance. Because I couldn't be suffering this unfinished business unless it was unfinished. And all life is trying to do is to get you to finish up what you came here to do, which is to connect heaven and earth.
- The nature of what is in time unfolds in what is timeless. We can't know anything about what is timeless until we expire everything that is unfolding in time. You can't expire what is unfolding in time as long as you're trying to derive something from that experience. It is a great paradox that it is the gradual expiration of experience, which is the same thing as the expiration of yourself as you know yourself, that brings about entrance into something that is timeless.
- When you finally get to the end of trying to change something, then conflict subsides, and you participate in what is being done because now you're a part of it and see you always were.
