It is often hard to do the right thing when it comes to being kind or patient with people who do what is wrong towards you, but we must embrace that Spirit of Rightness whose Light doesn't falter simply because darkness calls it into question.

Part 1 Where fear dominates, love cannot flourish; when love is shackled, freedom is too. Without freedom, transformation only furthers fragmentation; and the more divided we are, the more reasons we find to accept the tyranny of fear, blame, and doubt. Part 2 Until we are willing and able to put ourselves in the shoes of another, we have not yet stepped upon the true Upward Path.
How I love to wander through fields of light, stopping here and there to see, and to stand in silent awe...
GF: Welcome and good evening. Our chat will begin once I post these opening remarks on what each of us can do -- on a daily basis -- to develop more harmonious human relationships. Deep spiritual work reveals the truth that hellish things on earth manifest as they do because their dark cause dwells hidden somewhere in us. Tonight we look into this interior abyss and shine into its unseen corn...

Classroom Talk: 11/27/2022 - Reactions are not actions, any more than an echo is the cause of its own sound... which means: we cannot escape moments we resist, any more than it's possible to outrun our own shadow.

Classroom Talk: 9/25/2022 - Into what do we gaze when looking through a telescope or microscope... other than into the yet discovered depths our own consciousness? For whatever world we explore -- inwardly or outwardly -- what is it we uncover there... other than its reflection within us, along with a corresponding knowledge of it; and, if true, where does this new...
What can't be accomplished by someone willing to suffer for what he or she loves, especially given the fact that -- in this world, or the next -- love always prevails. On the other hand, examine the lives of those who know only to resist their suffering; the power that prevails therein... is pain: a dark power that progressively blots out the Light, turning life into a dreary prison of imp...
For every impulse, each movement in the expanding heavens, there is a gravity equal to it; for each light, each bit of love, there is a darkness, a resentment or regret. Our place, if we accept it, is to always be present to the possibility of empowering what is light and bright, loving and good...or we allow what is diminishing, denigrating, and bad to win the day.
Part I: In direct proportion to the strength of our remembrance of His Life does God grant us His strength. Part II: Look at what a man labors at and you will know what he loves. Look at what a man loves and you will know whom he serves. Look at what a man serves and you know his master. Look at a man's master and you know his destiny.
Only those who agree to surrender themselves into the ceaseless revelation of Divine Love can realize the invisible labor of that all-encompassing Heart. But, to be clear: this indescribable order of love -- including its indisputable authority to “cast out all fear” -- can never be possessed; we can only strive to be as present as possible to its perfect work within us...
Part 1 Love grows around love. Hatred grows around hatred. This is why we must be ever so careful when it comes to the kind of thoughts and feelings that are continually, unconsciously being cultivated in our heart. Part 2 Learn how to use everything, with everyone... to observe, consciously, exactly why the world is the way it is; but always be mindful to see without enmity... what...
