Remastered Classic Talk: 6/21/17 - Awakening to one's true Self begins with realizing that within us lives -- eternally, and right along side one another -- an endless need, as well as an endless resource that exists only to answer it!

Remastered Classic Talk: 5/31/17 - True patience, the seed of being consciously kind, begins with the interior work of never forgetting the following: what someone else does, whatever the nature of his or her action, has no authority over who you are.

Remastered Classic Talk: 1/18/17 - Action without knowledge is reckless at best, and is almost always dangerous to everyone involved. Knowledge without action is useless at best, and guarantees that the individual who is "inclined to recline" will remain in the realm of the sleeping intellect.

In one respect, at the heart of our predicament as a species of beings -- because it negatively impacts our possibilities -- is that we do not see the big picture. For most of us, the big picture is our problem, our heavy heart, our irritation with somebody else, or our own sense of inadequacy. The big picture is the weight of our past. And that's not the big picture at all. That is a self-pitying picture. It has nothing to do with what it is that we need to understand.

Remastered Classic Talk: 8/16/17 - Unconscious resistance is a mounting suffering born of refusing to see the following: the only way to change what is -- unseen for the most part -- a string of unwanted life experiences... is to die to the level of self that lives to not want what it keeps creating for itself.

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.

Topics covered: Relationships help people discover hidden aspects of themselves; Most suffering comes from unconscious expectations and demands; Negative emotional reactions are conditioned responses from the past; Become curious, not furious; Childhood trauma and chaotic environments condition the brain to expect danger; People often unconsciously recreate familiar emotional pain because it feels psychologically familiar...

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. So it is with love and self-pride, for love of self denies obedience... While love demands it.

Remastered Classic Talk: 3/22/17 -

Part 1: Your possibilities in life for spiritual growth are as unlimited as is your willingness to consciously meet your limitations.

Part 2: Resisting the revelation of any one of your present limitations... is like resenting the ocean because you never learned how to swim!

Remastered Classic Talk: 3/08/17 - 

Part 1: Humility comes only with our capacity to feel our own nothingness and, at the same time, to feel all that we are given to be.
