We are not held captive by anything in this life except for those relationships we consent to that are created out of our mistaken and unconscious belief that who we are -- our God-given being -- is not enough in itself. With this idea in mind here are three spiritual Laws that can help lead us to realize liberation from self-imposed limitations: 1. It is a Law that whatever truths we are wi...

Freedom isn't selective; it is either complete, unfettered, and now . . . or it is not freedom.

In this short talk, Guy Finley talks about how freedom from the tyranny of psychological storms begins by refusing to be consoled by anything that our minds can imagine, an action that allows the true consolation to make itself known to us.

Remastered Classic Talk: 07/17/2016 - We have but a single thing to do to satisfy the Soul and, in turn, fulfill her role in the Greater Plan of Creation. Our one True Task in Life is... to complete the moment as we are given to it. This is the first agreement; and in our obedience (to it) is found not only our freedom... but also the assurance of knowing that whatever sacrifice we must make to that greater end ensures all that follows is always in the best interest of everyone, and everything around us.

Guy Finley, Director of Life of Learning Foundation, explains that the only way to find real freedom is to become aware of the fact of our captivity. Then there is a humility born through which a higher will can work within us.

There are certain Laws that govern one's progress along the Path to real Freedom: these are Timeless Truths whose Principles regulate the possibility of rebirth through the transformation of one's being. Of course these Laws may be disputed (by those so willing), but the outcome of resisting or refusing their authority breeds not just suffering, but to the soul's corruption which, in turn, lea...

Guy Finley explains in this brief talk that it is possible for us to find complete freedom from the mechanical, enemy-making nature that presently tricks us into believing that it is necessary to our well-being to have enemies of any kind.

Classroom Talk: 7/31/2002 - Part 1: When you can look a worry or anger in the eye and tell it, "There is nothing between us anymore," then you are well on your way to the birth of a new kind of freedom in you that nothing can oppose or ever take away from you! Part 2: Our problems, what amounts to our lives defined by these protracted burdens, become weightless the moment we cease to identify with them...

Once we realize that whatever we will bring into our awareness has always been an aspect of our own consciousness, only not yet awakened to, we also understand this liberating truth: nothing exists outside of us. All destinations are already within us, including the Love we are searching for and the unconditional freedom that It alone has the power to grant.

When all you have is yourself, you have to be afraid. And yet if you really had possession of yourself, fear would not have any power over you. And if we're really honest with ourselves, we can see that presently we lose ourselves all of the time. We are always trying to hold in place who we think we are supposed to be. That is not freedom. Being yourself is not the same thing as straining to...

Freedom is not found in escaping "this" or possessing "that" . . . Real freedom is the active understanding that the world of "this and that" is a window into a higher order of reality not limited by the opposites.

Whatever thought or feeling we mistake for being the same as our self must, eventually, corrupt us -- much in the same way as an eagle, confined to live in even the finest cage, eventually forgets all about the freedom of open skies that were once its sole domain.
