Just as a river is refreshed -- each moment -- by the small creeks and streams that pour their waters into it, so are we meant to be renewed by the passage of Real Life as it pours into us, revealing all that it does... within us...
Love is effortless attention. In remembering the Divine, in that recollection of the truth of ourselves, we bring to the forefront of our heart and mind an all-encompassing Presence that cannot punish itself, or any other...
Student Talks: 07/18/2025 - If we’re still talking to ourselves about some past, painful, unwanted moment—justifying, revisiting, or analyzing it—we can be sure the invisible, Divine purpose of that moment was not fulfilled. And this insight, for those with “eyes to see,” reveals a deeper truth: if the lesson remains unrealized, then so does our reason for having incarnated the forces responsible for its revelation. Within this truth lies a still greater one, for those who would be free: under celestial law, such moments must return—either to be repeated, or – in our acceptance of a Divine will that seeks to strengthen our relationship with it – to serve as the ground of spiritual renewal.

If half of our life is spent meeting moments that are natural endings, then what are we to do with these things in our lives that can no longer serve us in a meaningful way? The answer?

During one of the talks, I spoke about a particuilar set of special ideas that struck a note with many of the people there, and I was asked to provide them with a hard copy of those ideas...for reference and as something to later ponder. The piece that follows is developed...

In the great turning of creation, involving all of her creatures, is not every need met in a scale of time too great for the mortal eye...
Our lives, as they are, are less than half of what they are intended to be. We can recognize that something is clearly missing. Often, even though we come up with: "It's him," "It's her," "It's this," or "It's that" which is clearly missing, it turns out that we may even get these things, and things still seem to be missing in our lives...

Whether we know it or not, we create the content and the quality of our own lives moment-to-moment. In fact, you are creating and experiencing your destiny even as you read this.
