To identify with any experience of life, no matter how whole it makes us feel in that moment must -- at some point -- reveal that the “experiencer” of that moment is, in fact, apart from it.

Watch a cat. It sits silent, unmoving, until something catches its eye: a movement in the grass, a flutter in a bush... and the cat comes to life. Its predator instinct is awakened and -- by an act of nature that moves through every fiber of its feline being -- it leaps into the continuing circle of life... and death. All movements, by their very nature, share three characteristics or qualiti...

Heavenly Father, blessed Christ, Divine Mother, Holy Spirit: I come before thee bringing together my heart, mind, and soul in praise of thee, and to pray to thee: Adonai Eloheinu Adonai echad: the Lord is our God; the Lord is One. Please help those of us who want to find their way back home to thee. Guide us; protect us from the evil one; lend us thy strength in our battles with the darkness.

Remastered Classic Talk: 10/05/16 - The spiritual search for the "old nature" set against you... isn't a "snipe hunt." The source of human misery is not a myth; so that if you've yet to see the beast of self-centeredness, if you don't recognize this creature for what it is -- and where -- it lurks within you... then at least learn to look for its tracks. That way, you might one day trace them back to its dark lair, where lie all the bleached bones of your life past. Don't be dismayed by this prescription, rather hear its timeless promise: your wish and willingness to enter into this place marks its death, not yours.

What is immortal? It isn't a person's face or a passage of music. It is not the things themselves, but it is that which produces those things. It is the actual genesis of God's love. We don't have to look for this love. It's the very core of us. But until we give our lives to the awareness of this never-ending genesis of love taking place within us, we have only facsimiles of love. We don't ha...

You wish, and then rush, to free yourself from your sorrows, but refuse to change the beliefs causing them...which is like jumping off the Ferris wheel onto the merry-go-round in the hopes of bringing an end to your dizziness. Any attempt to protect yourself from emptiness only creates the illusion of it...along with an imaginary self that believes it can somehow outrun this unwanted nothing.

Cammy (chat host): Hello everyone! It is so great to see you here tonight. We are excited to have with us as our guest speaker an amazing author and teacher, Guy Finley. Thank you, Guy, for being here with us this evening. GF: I'm delighted to share the evening with you and all of the friends online. Cammy: About a year ago, my friend Wendy shared an incredible book with me, "The Secret of L...

We can and must begin to understand the spiritual life before we can live it. But we can't begin to understand something that is above us until we begin to see it.

It is your Being that must change, not the conditions that set the lower levels of it into unconscious motion. And while right ideas can assist in leading you to this transformation, not a single one can do for you what you alone must do for yourself. Be the Mountain, not the individual storms that lash its side. Upon it...rocks will slide, flash floods will rage, but the Mountain remains th...

More and more these days, as a result (primarily) of unproductive spiritual practices fomented by false teachers, I receive questions similar to these that follow. My answers follow. What is your opinion on the use of psychedelics by aspirants who seek to know life that way? If psychedelics can revitalize a relationship with life thus making more valuable people, spiritually, then why do you...

The false self is the master of making mountains out of molehills, because it loves nothing better than dark and bumpy downhill roads.

The more you will step into the emptiness you fear, the sooner you will see that your immortal Self can never be empty any more than a sky without clouds is less than full.
