Student Talks: 4/26/2024 - Key Lesson: A tree has many leaves, and -- in one way or another -- the wind touches all of them; some shake, some quiver, some hardly move at all. And, yes: it may be said the tree "knows" their trembling; but neither the wind, nor the leaves it stirs are the tree that feels their passing touch. Thoughts and feelings are like leaves; learning to watch them move is much better than being carried away with every breeze.
Student Talks: 5/12/2023 - Key Lesson: There can be no "life after death" without realizing an order of Love that has no fear of dying. This Timeless Witness to its (own) creation doesn't see death as the end of life, but rather as its invisible partner in a ceaseless act of love.
Student Talks: 4/1/2022 - Key Lesson: Attention touches whatever level of being into which it reaches.

Student Talks: 2/2/2024 - Key Lesson: Because we are literally defined by our desires, we are confined to an unseen house of pain that, in turn, has transformed our fertile planet into a prison filled with frustrated inmates... none of whom can figure out why they're unable to escape the consequences of their (own) choices.
