In this short talk, Guy Finley talks about the vital importance of going beyond mere knowledge about spiritual principles and beginning the real work of integrating what we know about ourselves into our daily lives.
It is unnatural for any human being to be dominated by anything. Your only true responsibility is to understand this higher fact. And your corrected understanding places you in the right relationship with all gloomy thoughts and defeated feelings; which is that you simply have nothing to do with them. We are not saying to act or pretend as though dark feelings don't exist. This is very importa...
What does the mind explore other than itself? After all, what else is there for it to discover other than the extent of its own latent capacity to become conscious of all that it is?...
The reason that rebirth - - true resurrection - - is a precondition of entering the kingdom of heaven is because the kingdom of heaven is not so much a "place" as it is an act of Love, and nothing may enter into it that is not one with its Life.
Wisdom always recognizes her self. Truth knows the sound of itself. Love never fails to see where Love is not. The living Light within us sees by its own luminescence, and never dims or goes out. There is no wasted time unless we refuse to learn the truth of ourselves, for the True Self is eternal; but to throw away this gift of life everlasting is to have wasted all time.
Part 1 The only reason your mind won't stop its endless chattering... is because you won't stop listening to it! Part 2 Talking to ourselves to comfort ourselves makes sense only until we realize that talking to what troubles us, in the hopes of quieting it down, is like blowing kisses to a fire hoping that a show of affection will cool its flame.

Classroom Talk: 1/4/2019 - All passing moments -- seen as being high or low, for or against -- should be realized for what they are in reality: just another reflection moving across the mirror of Time, setting the stage for the next revelation of a Life too great to be told.
