I was listening to your recording about WalMart and It is sad that people can reach such a fear based feeding frenzy. Sharks do it for survival, people are scared and reaching for themselves, sadly they look without instead of within.

It is through one's awareness of imperfection that the Divine reveals the possibility of realizing -- and then manifesting -- its endlessly eternal perfection.

I know that I should persist in developing my inner strength, being aware in the moment, but there is still that "but" that stops me in my tracks as painful circumstances persist and I remain perpetually unsatisfied, puzzled and lost, feeling that I am wasting my life. I am tied with the rope of hopelessness and helplessness. There are walls everywhere -- wrong job, wrong husband -- as if I am...

I am wondering if all spiritual teachings, especially concerning being present and realizing expansion and contraction, apply to my current situation. My spouse of many years has left me, and I am now isolated and surrounded by memories. Can anyone say that this (perceived) agony is subject to the same laws and teachings as espoused within your podcasts and teachings in general? (From student...

I have been practicing the Stop, Drop, and Endure technique. Specifically, a few times I've awakened around three in the morning with a bad case of psychic indigestion from entertaining worrisome thoughts during the day, much like I would wake up with a stomach ache after eating a couple of pizzas before bed. I have awakened a few times feeling unbridled terror in my stomach. I practiced the...

Learning to let the whole world pass us by is the only way to discover that the fear of losing some imagined power, possession, or position in life is the same dying to an equally imagined lower level of self that "lives" to cling to it.

You say that "when we will put ourselves on the side of what we know is true, then the Truth takes our side." People are constantly using the word "truth." When you say that "Truth takes our side," this seems like a religious statement and leaves me void of any comfort whatsoever, because truth is relative... what is your truth, may not be my truth, and visa-versa. Real truth does not have any...

What would "heaven" be to you?...

Is there one factor upon which success in life is determined?...

If not for thoughts, there would be no separation between myself and any other person or thing. I realize that what I have assumed to be me for so long is really just a series of ideas. I have seen how it happens, starting in early childhood when we are taught things that we need to learn. This has been a great discovery for me and my life has become much more peaceful over night. Even though...

A few months ago, I read a book by Mr. Howard, who I understand was a teacher of yours. It mostly discussed the darker side of human interaction. Although I am very knowledgeable of these topics for some reason, I realized a whole another lever that disturbed me -- that of my so-called friends and family. More and more I see some very dark and selfish traits, and some that may even despise m...

One of our neighbors has suddenly taken a path that is proving to be an immense problem for us, in that his actions are not only stealing from us the quiet privacy we once enjoyed in our country home, but in some sense are also endangering us as well. I want to let go of the circumstance, and yet I feel as though I mustn't just allow this individual to dominate the atmosphere of the very plac...
