Topics Covered: The seed in time reveals what it already is; The seed dies so that the next form of itself can live; Freedom is not a static condition; Freedom is the gradual release from beliefs about what freedom is; The journey is an endless discovery of new levels of freedom; Faith is the ability to see truth in scale; Frustration is the evidence of a misunderstood resistance...

All forms of worldly expectation are heavenly, that is... until they inevitably roll over and reveal their unseen underbelly of disappointment, frustration, and other unseemly negative states.

There is no new resistance; regardless how “fresh” the nature of a negative state -- be it fear, anger, frustration or regret...

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.

Nothing better serves to sustain anger, frustration, and fear than being identified with a level of self whose very existence is founded, at best, upon the sands of passing time and circumstance.
