Talk Takeaways
What you call "your love" is sustained only as long as conditions seem to support that love. As soon as conditions change, what you called "love" is replaced with disdain, anxiety, fear, resentment, and hate.
Take the fragments of Truth that you hear into your heart, and that Truth will lead you to the next Truth.
When you dwell on an image, even an image of the Divine, you are without knowing it dwelling on the love of yourself.
"Metanoia" refers to a new mind, the capacity to turn around and look at the content of yourself that fights against the Will of the moment.
You try to control your reactions so that you can ostensibly control the will that is acting on you.
There is the active Will of the Divine, and the creation that is passive which that higher Will acts upon. How are the active and the passive to be reconciled? There has to be a marriage between the active Will and the passive will. Something has to be sacrificed.
We fall into the illusion of the opposites, the illusion of separation, which is what the metaphor of the Garden of Eden is referring to.
The real meaning of "resurrection" is being brought out of an old nature that is already dead, and into a new life that already exists within.
Perfect love is connected to perfect sacrifice. Death is connected to rebirth. To enter into death consciously is to experience and understand what real rebirth is.
You can't recognize love, harmony, beauty, or insight through knowledge, through thought.
There is another order of mind beyond thought, and it lifts you into a new relationship with yourself. You are lifted above the opposites, to where you can see the opposites, to a field that holds the opposites without being a captive of them.
"For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away." -- New Testament
There cannot be light and expansion, without what is dark and contractive. The two are complimentary and actually work together, like the turning Yin-Yang symbol. The passive forever yielding to the active, an unending sacrifice.
The body of Christ never stops sacrificing itself to the Will of the Father. The Father is in the Christ, and the Christ is in the Father. They are not separate. And it is the light of the "Holy Spirit" that marries the two.
Free will is the choice of whether or not you will agree to sacrifice the knower in you, which is the part of you that is presently active.
"But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God." -- New Testament
