Topics covered: Every unwanted moment is the fear of death; God's life is a great undiscovered ocean that is already within you. The ocean doesn't exist outside of you and you have always been a part of it, but as yet you do not know how to participate. Seeing that you do not know is the beginning of participating; The fear of "un" is fear of the unknown, the undiscovered, the unwanted. Until you get over the fear of "un" you'll never know...

Topics covered: In order to genuinely change our life, we need a change of light. And the light that reveals our consciousness hurts the eyes at first; The land of "one and done" that we are all trying to reach exists only in imagination. There is no such place. It is a mythological land. This is what mechanical religion and false teachers try to sell to you; If you don’t see for yourself the truth of something, you do not know the truth...

Remastered Classic Talk: 7/05/17 - What is the true spiritual journey other than the discovery that who we really are is (a) part of a Consciousness that remains, at least for now, unconscious... not just of itself, but also to the suffering inherent in being apart from the Holiness of life.

Classroom Talk: 9/8/2024 - Words are rocks in the stream of consciousness; no name is the experience it seems to define. Experience - like the flow of a river - is a silent, wordless movement. We can either live in, and from the conditioned experience of a word, or in the timeless awareness of experience itself.

Just as birds fly through an empty sky -- filling it with motion and sound -- but are not themselves a part of the blue space through which they wing, so is the quiet mind full of a Life that has no fear of its own essential empty character.

Topics covered: Until we see a bigger picture of the real world that we live in, we won't be able to really know and experience endless new beginnings; If you want to experience what is new, then you are going to have to let go of your ideas about newness in favor of the actual relationship with what is always new; We can see the evidence of renewal all around us...

Part 1 Anxiety is a form of negative anticipation; it is the dark by-product of a divided mind that imagines, at once, the security it seeks and what may come along to steal it away! Part 2 The essential emptiness of desire is hidden in the fullness it seeks.

Part 1: It is impossible to hear the "Voice of Heaven" -- to be in any level of communication with real conscience -- and to be talking to yourself at the same time.

Part 2: In stillness, I see. In silence, I hear. Seeing and hearing in this way, I am instructed... And come to understand.

Classroom Talk: 10/20/2002 - Part 1: True Silence is not the pleasurable sensation born of a quiet time taken in nature, and neither is it the natural repose that comes quietly at the close of day. True Silence is not a feeling at all, but is to one's emotions as is the sky to the sunlight that streams through it, lending it life. Part 2: Self-created silence cannot be creative.

Student Talks: 8/15/2025 - No condition that our unconscious nature imagines into existence can change, let alone liberate that level of self that, out of fear, finds itself compelled to imagine it…in order to feel secure!
