Classroom Talk: 12/10/2022 - Each of us has been given an immeasurable gift, a specific role to play in a celestial story so great, so vast it can hardly be seen. And further still, as our eyes open and we realize the truth of this invisible prize... not only do we reclaim our own grand possibilities, but we also help everyone else do the same!

Part 1: The only thing in us that longs to be flattered are unstable parts of us that not only love to be lied to, but that actively seek that kind of support through the careful cultivation of some appearance we put on in order to win it. Part 2: Too late does the fool who dines on flattery discover that not only has his wallet been emptied, but that he is being slowly, secretly, fatted for t...

Every human being on this planet is created to love something. The problem is that, for the vast majority of us, the part of us intended to love something was crushed right out of the gate. That part of us was crushed by the idea that "I must become something special", which requires that I must get all stirred up to do something that I have no love for. We have parts of us that demand that we...

Whenever we love someone (even a natural wonder or common creature), we know that our own higher emotional state awakens in us a kind of exalted energy; one that seems to melt barriers and that brings us into relationship with our beloved in ways beyond our understanding. But that's not all: not only does this unseen force of life grant us access to the secret regions of our beloved's heart bu...
