Classroom Talk: 9/29/2021 - No event itself creates anger (in us) any more than a flame causes a moth to fly into it and be consumed. Events serve to reveal specific corresponding qualities in the unexamined depths of our consciousness, bringing us into a Divine awareness of an unlimited, unimaginable power to transcend the same.
I often feel angry when my colleagues make fun of me in front of others. I know you would say to watch the one within who is angry, or be aware of the anger, etc., but this simply doesn't work for me... it feels more correct to scold them instead, but I still don't get peace.

Classroom Talk: 3/20/2022 - You will never agree to spend another moment attending to worried thoughts and feelings once you realize that they don't care about you at all!
Topics Covered: We have never been angry at someone else without also being completely justified in that anger. The justification excuses us from examining whether or not the anger is harmful; Chronic repressed anger can and does harm the physical body, compromising our health, and it also corrupts the soul; The real pandemic is unchecked negativity in the form of anger...

Key Lesson: What is past is colorless; neither does it have texture, any taste or odor. To lend any one of these qualities to what is no more is to transform what may be useful now into a prison of painfully pre-determined outcomes.
The hardest thing to remember whenever we find ourselves getting angry with someone for having done something "stupid" is that nothing is more stupid than being angry at someone who -- if he could have done better than he did in that moment -- would have!...
