Featured Study Group Topic for the Week of June 18, 2018. Our unconscious agreement to identify with the pain of any negative state - including the usual (anxious) rush to escape it - is one of the ways our false nature suffers - in vain - to prove (to itself) that whatever "self" it imagines, and then pretends to be is, in fact, real.
