Classroom Talk: 2/28/2024 - The unwanted moments that move in-and-out of our lives are like shadows that pass through a forest on a sunny day; they do not come as some blind force set against our best interests; rather, they come to help us realize what our best interests actually are.

Classroom Talk: 5/8/2024 - Here's why no rest can be found in the thought (of any time to come) regardless how temporarily comforting it may seem: there is no end to the thinker's desire to resolve the angst inherent in its own conflicted thinking...an endless search for a solution to its own unseen, self-induced suffering.
Student Talks: 3/29/2024 - Key Lesson: We are not being called to be more than we are, let alone to judge ourselves when we see we have missed the mark; rather, we are here to discover ALL that we have been given, and how - if we dare accept this unimaginable gift - we will see it multiplied a hundredfold.

Classroom Talk: 3/3/2024 - Once we understand that all forces -- even the seemingly contradictory ones -- are secretly complementary, we stand on the threshold of not only discovering the lost secret of letting go and letting God... but, at the same time, find that we are well on our way to realizing the unconditional holiness of life.

Classroom Talk: 2/14/2024 - Part 1: The witness to experience is not bound by it. Part 2: It's impossible to enjoy any moment in life, while fearfully trying to control it at the same time... that is, unless your idea of pleasure is the pain of making impossible demands on "others," not to mention upon yourself.
Student Talks: 2/2/2024 - Key Lesson: Because we are literally defined by our desires, we are confined to an unseen house of pain that, in turn, has transformed our fertile planet into a prison filled with frustrated inmates... none of whom can figure out why they're unable to escape the consequences of their (own) choices.
Student Talks: 6/14/2024 - Key Lesson: Any form of unconscious identification IS limitation; this lower nature lives to judge the limitations of others, so that it never has to see the real source of its suffering... is hidden in just how limited -- tiny and tormented -- is the world it never stops making from itself.

Classroom Talk: 12/13/2024 - Everything is singing; all things created, even those that seem to make no sound are, nevertheless, instruments of a silence that never stops ringing out; each tells a story unique not only to itself, but for the sake of all those who wish to hear the One Voice that speaks for all.

Classroom Talk: 10/16/2024 - In time, with enough struggle and effort, we can make of ourselves a momentary ruler of whatever kingdom we set out to create; but only when - and as - we learn what it means to rule ourselves do we lose nothing when that kingdom fades away...as must all creations in time.
Student Talks: 10/4/2024 - Key Lesson: In this life – regardless of circumstance – there is no greater reward than our God-given right to see what is true, and then to do what is asked of us in the light of that revelation; neither is there any task that comes with so great a personal price.

Classroom Talk: 6/26/2024 - Anytime we feel a need to stand in the healing light of the Divine -- and act to honor that wish -- we are shown a truth that not only sets us on the path back Home, but that serves to guide us the whole way: we have never been outside of the light of God.

Classroom Talk: 5/19/2024 - There is no distance, no time or space in seeing what is; And what is speaks for itself, which means no thought is required to understand what is being revealed in the space of some troubling time.
