The more we imagine a fearless life created by conditions outside of us, the more compelled we feel to try and control those same conditions. Our fear being that any change in them will return us back where we started: searching for a way to be fearless. Yet, the more we resist change, the more afraid we become of it. We find ourselves applying more and more pressure to life in order to escape...

No moment is painful in and of itself; any conflict, or suffering ascribed to it is a dark creation of our own unconscious, negative assessment of it.

Student Talks: 8/18/2023 - Key Lesson: Negative reactions -- in fact any form of painful resistance -- prevail only when we fail to remember it is -- at once -- our Divine right, and our work to transform, and transcend them.

Classroom Talk: 2/1/2023 - All psychological suffering is born of unconscious resistance to life; it is the bitter fruit of the futile attempt to prove that our sense of self exists outside of the conditions that give rise to its revelation.

Classroom Talk: 12/9/2022 - Without resistance to its appearance... there is no negativity inherent in suffering; to realize the fact of this truth is the first step in proving (to yourself) that all forms of psychological pain are optional.

Classroom Talk: 03/30/2025 - No one wins freedom who hasn't first realized the invisible relationship between resistance and revelation, and how one cannot appear without the other; wherein to see that they secretly serve one another, is to put both in your service.

Psychological suffering is born of an unseen, “mechanical” resistance to life; it is the dark offspring of an unconscious nature that believes its painful experience of any unwanted moment is somehow separate and apart from the way it sees and reacts to it, accordingly.
