    If you are engaged in an interior dialogue with yourself, you are not listening to Divine guidance. In this short talk, Guy talks about keeping it simple. The higher answer to the pain of difficult moments is to see the consciousness that is responsible for the pain, not in struggling to change all of the exterior conditions that are blamed as the reason for the suffering.

    Have you ever experienced a barrage of pressing thoughts telling you what you need to do in order to make a problem go away? All of those frantic thoughts are essentially saying "Follow me" as they present their advice. The Divine never pressures a person into following anything. Instead, the Divine is always gently whispering, "I am here."

    Topics covered: When it comes to the Truth, there is no prescription that tastes good. The medicine is bitter, but it heals; Everything that is not 100% aligned with God's Will suffers as a result of that separation; Stop asking so many questions, and start seeing what is right in front of your eyes; Humanity dwells in a hell of its own making. To be full of anger, self-pity, resentment, fear, or any other negative state is to dwell in hell. Unconscious suffering is hell.

    Classroom Talk: 9/4/2024 - When any lie is passed down from one generation to the next, it not only becomes what is believed as being true but, as such, becomes the unsuspected seed of fear, mistrust, doubt, and the pain of unseen self-conflict.
