Guy's Classroom Talks

Remastered Classic Talk: 02/21/2016 - The vast majority of humanity views the idea of spiritual rebirth as some sort of prize to be claimed and declared: a new and exciting personal possession, like having won a tropical island in a high-stakes lottery. But true rebirth is nothing of the kind; (it is) a distinct awareness within oneself of a timeless and intelligent awareness -- a fearless and abiding patience, burgeoning with expectation -- that is "in the world (of passing time), but not of it."

Remastered Classic Talk: 2/17/16 - There is only one-way to change who, and what we have been: we must set a conscious intention to observe ourselves... as we are, under any and all circumstances. This means that moment-to-moment, we choose, consciously, to see what's unfolding within us through the "eyes" of a higher part of us that knows -- even as it enters the fray -- that our freedom begins with ending our identification with lower, unconscious influences.

Classroom Talk: 02/16/2025 - Somewhere between the past and the future there is a present waiting for you; to open yourself to its Presence…is to be given a life wherein fear cannot grow because its roots need darkness to spread, and there is none to be found in the holy space of this timeless place.

Remastered Classic Talk: 11/18/15 - Remember this one idea, whatever the circumstances you must face, and the day will dawn when you will know the freedom for which you seek: Your struggle is with yourself, and yourself only.

Classroom Talk: 02/09/2025 - Perfect peace is not found in some time to come; it has never not existed now. We are created to perfectly reflect this truth...and, in so doing, to realize its freedom.

Classroom Talk: 2/8/2025 - Pretending to be a loving person, while inwardly being resentful, is pain; A nice deep breath will always help you to digest more of the many impressions that are raining down on you; The secret source of our painful, ongoing imperfections is our fear of them; We don't see the judgment in ourselves because we are identified with what we are judging; Creation is an unfinished business...

Remastered Classic Talk: 02/03/16 - You are responsible for every impression you make on others; however what they make of your work is no longer your responsibility.

Classroom Talk: 02/02/2025 - Nothing created has (a) weakness that isn't (already) married to a strength that fulfills its purpose. The only exception to this celestial law is found in an unconscious nature that imagines it has some strength of its own, and that - for having become identified with the illusion of this false image - lives in constant fear of anything that comes along to challenge its dream.

Remastered Classic Talk: 01/27/16 - The only way it's possible to be punished by some mistaken action on our part... is if we make the second mistake: allowing the same level of self that we followed into that "pit" to condemn and then punish us for the very misstep that it first assured us was the right one to take!

Classroom Talk: 01/26/2025 - The path to self-perfection weaves its secret way through the land of imperfection, where only the conscious awareness of what we are shows us not just who and what we have been, but all that we are made to be...as we agree to be perfected right where we stand.

Remastered Classic Talk: 01/20/16 - The psychological weight of any pressing moment is the same as whatever level of importance is assigned to it by an unconscious part of us; this lower level of self looks for any situation where it can add "a cubit to its stature" by first imagining some unmanageable burden into existence so that then... it can feel itself struggling to carry its own impossible load!

Classroom Talk: 01/19/2025 - Awakening is the (graduated) process of negating all forms of identification; (it is) the realization that no matter how real the feel of any familiar sense of self - for its pleasure, or pain - nevertheless: no sensation does a "self" make, any more than a wave on the sea creates the sea from out of which it rises, and must return.
