Time / Timelessness

Topic: Wake Up and Walk Away from the Haunting of Useless Wanting (Remastered Classic Talk) (Classroom Talk 4/22/26)

Topics covered:  We give more attention and care to the practical affairs of life than we give to our inner life. Nothing is more serious or more important than attending to your interior life; The punchline of the story about the twins who would inherit their Father's Kingdom was: "Freedom without service is an illusion. The great, sacred law is that whenever you are asked to place the needs of the kingdom above your own, you must do so regardless of the personal cost."

Topics covered: The Truth awakens a possibility that is literally beyond imagination. It is a kingdom within us that is not determined by thought; What we call our happiness or peace can be ruined by a single disturbance, and instead of happiness and peace, there is resistance.

Topic: The Secret Seed of Freedom (Remastered Classic Talk) (Classroom Talk 8/13/25)

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.

Topics covered:  We are the way we are because of what we turn to in unwanted moments. As long as you spend your life not wanting, you will have the life you don't want; You do not know how to be yourself. All that you have are the derivative images that have been picked up through the years about what it means to be a successful human being; Our sense of self is based on a fight with life, trying to make it to conform to the images we have about who we are.

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.

Topics covered:  An awakened individual represents for us the possibility of an entirely different order of existence; You can't wait to make something of yourself. That is the reason for all of the planning and hoping and dreaming; The problem is that we live in a consciousness that has made a world in its own image; The problem with life's changes is that they do not agree with the static images that we identify with.
