A thousand flames, But one Fire, A thousand hearts, But one Desire. A thousand journeys, But one Path, A thousand conclusions, But One Math. A thousand sorrows, But one Night, A thousand insights, But one Light. A thousand branches, But one Tree, A thousand lovers, But one Thee.
GF: Welcome to our chat tonight. Before we get going I would like to look at a certain psychological condition common to all seekers of Truth -- a pervasive and often punishing inner state we must either learn to use or end up being abused by it. I am speaking about being discontent -- its true nature, its purpose in existence, and our almost daily relationship with its onset in us. It is no...
When your senses reel, And all you can feel Is the pull of the world on you ... ... Cling fast to your Aim, Remember His name And strive in your Work to be True.
The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who passing over a certain ridge comes upon an unknown Mountain outside his country and there catches a glimpse of a valley within a valley..
But How ... In that moment of Sweetness When you're relieved of all debt, Can you turn right 'round in yourself And in an instant forget ... How hard ... And unbearably heavy It has been just to be you, And yet still be so demanding Others must pay you your due?...

Seeking fulfillment it empties itself. Seeking importance it compromises itself. This is the self that opposes itself.
You wish, and then rush, to free yourself from your sorrows, but refuse to change the beliefs causing them...which is like jumping off the Ferris wheel onto the merry-go-round in the hopes of bringing an end to your dizziness. Any attempt to protect yourself from emptiness only creates the illusion of it...along with an imaginary self that believes it can somehow outrun this unwanted nothing.
