Part 1: What is that first, faint intuition of something Greater than ourselves, other than the Herald of the Heart quietly announcing the existence of a whole new level of being above us -- and asking us -- at the same time, if we will prepare ourselves to receive it. Part 2: Just as tumbling leaves in the wind makes the wind visible, so does the need of someone -- that stirs the h...

That strong sense of urgency -- that pressurized feeling that comes with struggling to obtain or resolve whatever is imagined as being critical to your sense of contentment -- is one of the ways the false self makes the essentially meaningless seem incredibly meaningful for as long as it's pursued.

We have an innate need to rise above ourselves, to open ourselves to higher influences... for one thing, because we understand that without higher influences, we're left to our own flu-like influences from which we don't get well, and that we are sick from following our own prescriptions! Our present condition is imagining what we need to do in order to get above ourselves...

Let us work to lose our fears themselves, and not become the captive slaves of what they would have us believe must be protected; for what good is it to stand guard outside the door of any house into which thieves have already broken?...

Classroom Talk: 4/10/2019 -The only real problem we have with any unwanted moment in life -- regardless how stressed, or conflicted may seem its temporary character... is that we have yet to see our unconscious involvement in its creation, and subsequent appearance.

Learn the powerful secret to better relationships, less stress and brighter days! Best-selling author Guy Finley explores the subtle ways our own minds sabotage the higher success we seek, and provides tools for going beyond our present limitations.

In the same way you know that a dog may bark and nip at you but not harm you, when you hear a voice that says, "you're out of time," or feel a pressure telling you, "you've got to run," one day you'll feel that pressure, that hypertension, that anxiety, and inwardly you will hear another certain kind of voice that basically says, "That's it. No more running for you. No more running for you."

The true answer to any problem we find ourselves in is not found in our thoughts about it, but rather in our willingness to allow new light to reveal its purpose.

What are we to do with what life brings to us -- that we are sure just isn't "right" -- especially when we can look out and see so many horrible things taking place on our planet? Getting stressed and struggling to correct the conditions seen as being at fault or to change the outcome of any past event is like arguing with an echo to make it see your point of view. This is not to say that we...

While we are often able to hide our pain born of feeling apart from life, it cannot be ignored any more than the right hand can escape the stress the body endures when the left hand suffers a splinter or is pricked by a thorn.

Anxiety is torment. But we never suspect that the mind that is anxious is anxious because it is trying to bring an end to its own pain... and it can't, because there is no peace in the world of a mind set against itself. The problem is that we are born into a world where, within a very short time, we each have our own inner "personal attendant." This attendant has two things in its hands...

The spiritual body that alone can stand the buffeting of all unconscious opposing forces -- that ultimately learns to use them for its own development -- is further perfected each time we struggle, as needed, to remember this one celestial fact: nothing in this world (or the next) has the right -- or the power -- to turn our own attention against us.
