We are always trying to build a self that won't disappear out of the things that are coming in the stream of time, never understanding that nothing we find floating upon this temporal stream can ever be timeless. And if this is true about the nature of the world's ever-becoming events, how much more impermanent is our sense of identity derived from them? But we're slow to learn!
We must recognize the almost endless cycle of pressure, anxiety, anger, and regret that always appears with the promise that if we follow that branch of negativity, it will lead us back to the source of understanding where we'll be free at last. In fact, that branch we're tempted to follow belongs to something that can never complete itself, and that requires our energy to sustain it.
We all want the comfort of knowing that there are things we can count on, that there is something in this life permanent.

Why are we here? And what is our true role in this world? For, as we start to see reality -- as it is -- in its timeless expression of creating life, perfecting it, and then letting it go, only to start all over again, we realize that we ourselves are an integral part of this Great Endless Story. And if the whole of life is being made new in each and every moment -- and we ourselves are a pa...
Could the light of timeless truths, spoken by masters over thousands of years -- the hope and promise they hold about our own latent higher possibilities -- help liberate us from the host of fears that hold our consciousness hostage? Imagine the end of all forms of fanaticism born of imagined differences, the beginning of a new order of peace created from the collective understanding that *al...
In this short talk, Guy Finley discusses how we must begin to properly use the gifts we have been given if our wish is to enter into a deeper relationship with the Divine.
Life wants us to know the meaning of it. It is an innate urge in us to know the meaning of our life, and it is right before us in the mirror of the present moment.
