The light we need to be free is always with us; it is at once a creation of life, and the Life that creates it... where “both” are revealed in every moment of life...
We all want to be free of painful dramas in our life, yet refuse to see how we play a lead role in their daily appearance. Catching ourselves in a play of our own making...
Part 1 Here is what Jesus Christ knew that we too must understand if we would be free: the harder the load he agreed to bear, the better it was for everyone. Part 2 You are the hope–the light of the world. If not you, then who?...
The "medicine that heals" -- the intention to see ourselves as we are, and the subsequent revelations that alone can help set us free -- can only be as important (and ultimately invaluable) to us as is the extent of a higher awareness that calls for that exact prescription.
Part I As we learn what it means to consciously "suffer ourselves" so are we given the keys we need to enter into the true life free from suffering. Part II We die to death in ourselves by suffering it for the sake of true life.
The Divine first intervenes in our unconscious identification with useless suffering by the advent of an interior Light that reveals a shocking truth: most of the familiar solutions we rely on to free us from our suffering... are secretly complicit in its continuation.
How is it we don't see how much our life is spent worrying, and struggling to acquire whatever powers we imagine we must have in order to finally arrive at... a life free of worry and struggle?
The purpose of true evolution is not for human beings to one day become free, but to reveal -- to "those with eyes to see" -- that Freedom is the engine of real spiritual evolution, and that this Great Nature already resides within each and every one of us.
To realize that I AM -- and always have been what I was scarcely aware of in days gone by -- is the first faint, but deep stirring of the Truth that sets you free...
Whatever justifies the unconscious suffering inherent in anger, blame, or bitterness is, itself, a part of – in league with - these same negative states. And that's what we have to see if we ever want to be free of whatever it is (within us) that has "good reasons" for tearing itself apart.
Allowing your mind to dwell on any unwanted moment -- anticipating that the more thought you give to finding a solution to that pain -- the sooner you'll be set free from it -- is like hoping to escape a prison cell by walking into it and locking the door behind you.
Attending to, completing what the (Presence) moment asks of us... is the business of Real Life. Within this realization, and the action implied through understanding its wisdom, is found the path that leads to being innocent, fearless, and free... the single most profitable state attainable by any human being.
