The more willing we are to see the truth of ourselves as revealed in each passing moment, and then do our level best to attend to its silent instruction, the more truth seems to "follow us around," making straight the Way.

There is no such thing as a "bad day"...only our inability to see the Good in it.

Student Talks: 5/24/2024 - Key Lesson: 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. This clarity is choiceless strength, as well as its right use, all at the same time.

Student Talks: 10/27/2023 - Key Lesson: Any time the mind makes a "package" out of some unwanted moment -- wrapping its reaction (to it) in familiar troubled thoughts, and negative feelings -- it does so at the cost of exchanging a priceless gift it's been given... in favor of giving itself another painful experience (of itself) that it doesn't know it's created for itself!

Student Talks: 12/23/2022 - Key Lesson: Part 1: We cannot hope to find true peace without fulfilling the purpose of (our) life, and we can't fulfill that purpose without awakening to the Web of Divine Relationships within which the purpose of (our) being has already been sown. So that anything working to interfere with this realization is, at best, delaying its revelation...

Looking for reasons (to give to yourself) for any unwanted moment in your life... is the same as being deceived into looking away from the lower nature that secretly lays out the welcome mat for whatever the misery that comes knocking at your door.

Sometimes the very best thing we can do for those we love - or, for that matter, anyone we meet - is what we don't do to them!...

We judge others in the vain attempt to separate ourselves from our own negative reaction to them. This is like believing that turning our back on something we don't want to see in a mirror changes whatever it is that we'd rather not see in it.

Student Talks: 7/26/2024 - Key Lesson: Until the peace and pleasure found within us is equal to -- or greater than -- any consolation found outside of ourselves -- then our power to be patient, loving, and profitable in every moment is, at best, conditional; nothing better serves to sustain anger, frustration, and fear than being identified with a level of self whose life is founded, at best, upon the sands of passing circumstances.
