Our eCourses focus on specific topics, building your understanding through a series of related talks. Most eCourses include MP3 audio and MP4 video formats you can play online.
Exercise: "Be at peace." When you hear something in you say, "be anxious, be worried, be afraid" -- choose to be at peace instead. This is what it means to "choose to be chosen." Inside of you lives a conscience, a Real I that is peace itself, that knows that everything is as it should be Now. If you will just let the moment be as it is, you will be a part of the peace that is inherent in life...
Exercise: When you begin to feel pain over something, become conscious of the nature that is suffering and what it is suffering over. Work to 'put on the coat' so that you can begin to change your relationship to the suffering. Agree to consciously suffer for who you are becoming, not for who you have been or hope to be, because you understand your suffering is meant to transform you.
Exercise: Make a list of the 'passengers' you allow to get in your car. See if you can identify the patterns behind these thoughts and feelings that you are suddenly captured by. Remember your wish to have your own mind.
Exercise: See that when you are in a negative state, you have fallen into a 'pit.' Realize that the nature that led you into the pit cannot possibly lead you out of it, and any plan your mind formulates for escape is like pulling on a rope that goes nowhere. The way out of the pit is to be present long enough to hear the rescuing voice from above the pit which reveals the true way out. Your jo...
Exercise: 'Give the first taste to the king.' There is no moment in which we are not being fed impressions from life. Anytime you feel a contraction as an impression strikes you, work to be aware so that you don't grab the first reaction that it brings. Instead allow the impression to be met by the 'king' within you which knows what is true higher food and what is not. Let the king have the fi...
Exercise: In any moment when you are filled with dread or apprehension about what you know you must do, or when you know that you are about to enter into a highly reactive moment, deliberately go in as a witness to the moment. When you know something in you wants to run counter to the moment, and you choose not to bring that 'I' into the moment with you, you are given an awareness of that self...
Exercise: When you catch resistance in you starting to push back against life, don't go along with it, but also don't deny it. Work to 'be' it by bringing it fully into your awareness, which is the same as bringing it into yourself. When you do nothing towards the negativity, you allow it to be used as a connection between heaven and earth.
Exercise: When you find yourself asking 'why did he do that, why is she like that,' realize that the question only exists to separate you from seeing the whole of the moment and its inherent, perfecting goodness.
Exercise: Watch for the appearance of the 'not yet' nature in you, such as when you make a mistake and immediately judge yourself or blame others to avoid seeing the truth of yourself. Realize the need to bring that undeveloped nature more fully into the light of your awareness so that what has been unconscious in you can be integrated into the next level of your consciousness. See how long yo...
Exercise: Find out your favorite forms of useless suffering and work to see the breeding ground out of which the suffering comes. Ask yourself, "Who is my partner in this pain?"...
Exercise: Choose to complete the moment instead of compete with it. All moments come with a specific purpose, to fulfill a higher plan. When faced with an unwanted event, catch the appearance of that part of yourself that wants to push its way through no matter what. Work to complete the moment by sacrificing that competing, demanding nature, which then allows a reconciliation between the heav...
