Time / Timelessness

Remastered Classic Talk: 07/06/16 - Calling on, and then allowing a spirit of unrest to help guide you to the peace that your heart of hearts seeks...Is like hoping that a stiff winter wind has come, just in time, to help you gather all the leaves that lay scattered across your lawn.

Student Talks: 2/21/2025 - Somewhere between the past and the future there is a present waiting for you; to open yourself to its Presence... is to be given a life wherein fear cannot grow because its roots need darkness to spread, and there is none to be found in the holy space of this timeless place.

Student Talks: 2/14/2025 - Perfect peace is not found in some time to come; it has never not existed now. We are created to perfectly reflect this truth...and, in so doing, to realize its freedom.

Classroom Talk: 10/30/2024 - The fear of what may lie just ahead does not exist without the unconscious parts of us clinging - painfully - to what no longer serves the purpose for which it was originally created.

Classroom Talk: 9/11/2024 - For anyone with ears to hear, there is but one question and one answer: will we wait patiently for a single moment of relationship with what is eternal and real? Where - by the ineffable touch of something as unknowable as it is timeless - all the moments of our life - past, present, and future - are forever changed? Otherwise, we waste the precious few moments of our life chasing the pleasure of an imagined time to come that recedes from our grasp in the same instant that we reach for it.

Classroom Talk: 1/10/2024 - Real life is change; it is creation revealing its endlessness. We can either realize our existence within its movement as a designated part of its Divine design, or can continue to struggle with unwanted moments in the false belief that our pain proves we know how the story of life is supposed to unfold.

Classroom Talk: 8/30/2023 - Part 1: Whatever is created in time... is a creation of time; and all creations -- in, and of time -- must pass when their time is up. Part 2: If we ever look closely, we would see that the fear we have of the future is always dressed as a beggar; but if we dared even a closer look, we'd see that not only does that beggar bear a striking resemblance to us...

Student Talks: 1/13/2023 - Key Lesson: To identify with even the brightest star is to lose sight of the boundless heavens within which it shines... without whose vast tracts of darkness would no celestial light be seen.

Classroom Talk: 12/7/2022 - It is impossible to teach the true nature of mindfulness, but it is possible to see the consequences of living from an unattended mind.

Classroom Talk: 10/5/2022 - What man or woman, by running away from some disturbance -- be it fear, worry, or sorrow -- can hope to transform, let alone transcend their pain? The solution to suffering is found within it, much in the same way as is the fragrance of a rose protected by thorns.

Classroom Talk: 11/3/2021 - Part 1: Every wise saying that stirs the heart, or helps illuminate the mind, is a kind of Divine seed: each speaks in its own tongue of some timeless chapter and verse, but always hinting of -- and silently pointing to -- the Book of Truth from which it has come. Part 2: Wisdom never gets old because its true nature is timeless; knowledge is...

Classroom Talk: 10/27/2021 - The more we work to remember this one Truth -- especially when facing a fear about what may come to pass -- that everything in this world of passing time is granted, at best, but a temporary stay... the more certainly will we enter into, and stand within a Divine sheltering awareness that never dies.
