Classroom Talk: 6/25/2023 - Part 1: Enlightenment is instantaneous, but keeping the lights on is another story altogether! Part 2: Intention is the front runner of a race yet to be run, a new order of will yet to be tested, but waiting to be realized.

Classroom Talk: 9/23/2022 - Divine wisdom refreshes the soul by renewing its faith... but not faith in the hope of a time yet to come; rather it flourishes in the light of a ceaseless revelation that within it already dwells all that is good, patient and timelessly true.

Topic: The Power of Being Still (Remastered Classic Talk) (Classroom Talk 1/8/25)

It is a strange characteristic of most human beings that we would rather feel anxious and strained about things over which we have no power, than to do the one thing actually in our power -- for whose conscious practice we would know the very peace we claim to be seeking. And that is: to ground our attention in the fact of the moment where no worried or stressful feeling can enter.

Life never stops sending her healing messages to us -- but they get short-stopped by the self that tells us it is everyone else who is sick, and that it is they who should be more receptive to the message of Truth. But remember this and you will realize many new healings: Any lesson you are certain that someone else ought to learn came marked to your attention first!...

Part I: About the only thing that we don't throw onto the fire when finding others at fault is the explosive fact of just how often we have found ourselves guilty of making the exact same mistake! Part II: We are never captives of anything other than the illusion that the negative condition that holds our attention for the moment is the only reality available for us to know.

Remastered Classic Talk: 4/19/17 - There are some things in this life -- in this world of passing time, governed as it is by the illusion of opposites -- that cannot grow up side-by-side; by their nature, the lion and the lamb never lay down together.
