Student Talks: 12/23/2022 - Key Lesson: Part 1: We cannot hope to find true peace without fulfilling the purpose of (our) life, and we can't fulfill that purpose without awakening to the Web of Divine Relationships within which the purpose of (our) being has already been sown. So that anything working to interfere with this realization is, at best, delaying its revelation...

Question: In this time of economic downturn, is there anything to say to those of us who have experienced losing a job or a home? I don't know what to say to my friends and coworkers who are suffering. It's easy to tell them that the universe will provide and that something better will come along when I'm not the one in their position. Any words of wisdom would be appreciated.

Topics covered: Though we are not usually aware of it, we live within a field of forces that is perfectly organized; Your hope rests in being the willing recipient of the revelations about yourself that are always being given; We are not here just to serve nature. We are created to serve a greater good; When you are complaining about your life, you are participating in the futile attempt to bring order...

Topic: How to Wake Up from the Nightmare Called Fear and Anxiety (Classroom Talk 11/9/22)

Topics covered: We presently believe that fear and anxiety are a natural reality of life, necessary in order to get what we want; Tomorrow is a time that does not exist apart from the level of consciousness that imagines it; The idea of tomorrow always comes with the idea that there is something that has to be protected; There can be no psychological fear without negative imagination...

Classroom Talk: 11/9/2022 - No one would agree to the feeling of being pulled apart by anxious thoughts and feelings, that is to say... unless he was first deceived into believing that this kind of pain is a required payment for anyone who hopes to pull their life back together... again!

Guy answers how to stop being anxious with his quote, "As goes my attention so comes my experience." When anxiety has your attention stuck on worrying about a stressful situation that's your experience. A change in attention relieves us from the stressful connection to anxiety.

There is an unseen source of daily suffering that is the constant companion of humanity. It is in one respect one of the great driving forces behind the darkness that encompasses this planet -- the unremitting wars, the violence, the greed, the fear, the desperation -- all the things we see in the world around us...

Student Talks: 9/16/2022 - Key Lesson: Being convinced to worry over some darkness that "might be" just around the corner is an unseen interior shell game; (it's) a "play and lose" operation run by parts of us that know if they can't keep us resisting some impending fear they will have no choice but to disappear!

Topics covered: Worry never gives back a return on the investment of time, energy and tears that we pour into it; The moment a disturbance comes up, the only thing we know to do is remand ourselves over to a consciousness that can only worry about what to do about it; The general reason why we worry is that something in us believes that things are not the way they are supposed to be...
