Talk Takeaways

There really is such a thing as divine intervention, but for most of humanity the idea is stuck in imagination.

Nothing can change until we see our complicity in the continuation of the world's conflict.

Until we see our present level of consciousness, we are powerless to change the life we experience, and we don't even know the right questions to ask.

There can be no divine intervention that does not begin with some kind of self-integration. No integration, no intervention.

The world, both inside and outside of us, wants to sell us solutions to the pain that it creates.

We were not placed here on this Earth to suffer the way that we do now.

Your idea of what is good is the source of your pain.

Healing begins with the revelation of something within us that had been concealed.

The lower level of consciousness that we presently live from believes that judging ourselves is the same as divine intervention.

Everything we do to put out a fire in our consciousness only accelerates the fire.

We have to learn to ask for divine intervention in the right way and from the right part of ourselves.

Seven Interior Steps/Actions/Words for Divine Intervention: Realization, Deceleration, Recognition, Relaxation, Admission, Declaration, Dedication. Realize your actual condition. Decelerate from the thought nature that wants to escape from the condition. Recognize that you have been in this condition many times before. Relax into the awareness of your actual condition and consciously suffer the state. Admit that of yourself you do not know what to do with the state. Declare that you want to be changed by something higher than thought. Dedicate yourself to working on yourself despite the world inside yourself telling you that it is futile.

Real life is a ceaseless intervention of a higher level of energy acting upon a lower level. That moment is always now.

Revelation is the first stage of divine intervention. Revelation of the false intervention of thought is the true divine intervention.

Part of genuine happiness is knowing that the revelation of "what is" in any moment is not a static condition that has appeared to punish us.
