If you want a “misery-backed” guarantee that the painful relationship you have with whatever troubles you about someone -- or with something -- will never change... Just keep complaining to yourself about it!

Most people pounce on others as they do -- when they do -- not because they want to cause pain, but because they're afraid of being hurt. To see this truth is to realize that the real enemy of relationship is fear itself; for this dark state that dwells in the unenlightened heart knows that the best way to protect itself is by being first to find fault with another.

Love is not so much a bridge between things as it is that which both connects them and, at the same time, shows them to have never been truly apart from one another. The reason we love something, or someone, is because through that union we are enhanced, somehow made to feel more complete through that relationship. However, unlike substances cannot merge. Oil and vinegar may complement one an...

In this short video, Guy talks about how, when it comes to our relationships, the opportunity to do the right thing always exists, even when something tells us that it is too late.

In this life, due to the great and compassionate Intelligence that governs it, not one thing is wasted . . . and this includes, once we come to realize our own foolishness, even those moments of our lives we have unknowingly thrown away.

Part I: Contrary to popular psychotic belief, God did not create us to look upon His Life as a wish-fulfillment center. Instead we are created to live in the awareness that God's life is the center of our being, and that to realize this relationship answers all of our wishes because Love itself has then become our life. Part II: Learning to be grateful for the lessons hard learned is the secr...

Can you explain to me about forgiveness? Is forgiveness (and "making amends") something that I (a recovering addict) need to address? It seems silly to think I need to drag up every person from my past that I did something hurtful to. But what about those BIG relationships as in family? Will forgiveness and amends help in the healing of me?...

Part 1 There is but one relationship one can have with the wind-blown events of this world that isn't a part of all the useless, unconscious suffering they create... and that is to be a conscious witness of them. Part 2 There is only one way to know -- beyond the shadow of a doubt -- the presence and power of that indwelling Divine nature that can't be dragged down -- or into yet a...

No moment (or form found within it) exists apart from the set of relationships that sustain it -- which means that fear of any form actually creates and sustains the form being feared.

Student Talks: 3/15/2024 - Key Lesson: Being is a conscious relationship with what is now; knowledge is a relationship with what was, the conditioned content of the past.

In this Saturday discussion Guy elaborates on the purpose of the attention exercises and why the development of attention is necessary to our spiritual life. As human beings we are shut off from the world of higher impressions because the divided mind seeks an outcome for...

Several times a week the Foundation receives emails from people who are bitter, broken-hearted, or just plain angry because of what happened to them while growing up and going through the myriad miserable relationships they had no choice but to go through (especially as abused children). In short, these people feel almost fully defeated in their effort to put a painful past behind them. I sa...
