Insight Timer Talks

We can realize all we are meant to see -- and to be, accordingly -- only as we allow self-awareness to serve its highest purpose in life. Which is to do what? To reveal what is yet realized about (our) consciousness, that it might be reconciled and re-integrated, reborn, as part of a greater whole.

The problem: we hear, but we don't listen; we see, but we don't sense; we feel, but we aren't touched. The more clearly we understand the true nature of this interior imperfection, the more it becomes clear to us... where we must conduct our search for the missing half of our life.

Nothing in the universe can make you relive some painful moment from your past as long as you choose to live in a self-renewing awareness that remembers the following truth for you: no old dark thought has the power to define you, let alone drag you down.

What is Limitless hides within, and just behind limitation. So anyone who will agree to stand, patiently, within the quiet awareness of any painful sense of inadequacy - refusing to bow before it - will soon be crowned with a new and unimaginable strength.

Insight Timer Talk: 11/25/23 - Most of us fear (our own) painful, negative reactions, when the right relationship we’re created to have with them is to see their appearance as both a revelation and invitation...to help us awaken, and remember a Divine spiritual strength yet realized.

Insight Timer Talk: 11/18/23 - Just as we wouldn't try to pry open a rosebud, interfering with the natural process by which it comes to display its yet-revealed beauty, so must we learn to give every impression planted in the soul the time it needs to grow, develop, and reveal its latent power to free us from whatever we fear.

Part 1: The more we anxiously look around for a way to deal with the fear of any moment imagined as yet to come, the more immediate grows the fear we experience in the here and now. Part 2: No condition, in and of itself, is ever the cause of psychological stress, fear, or regret; suffering of this kind is inherent in an unseen, unconscious level of "self" that resists changing conditions because it is incapable of changing with them.

It is impossible to know anything about the true nature of immortality as long as we continue to live with the fear of death.

No condition, in and of itself, is ever the cause of psychological stress, fear, or regret; suffering of this kind is inherent in an unseen, unconscious level of "self" that resists changing conditions because it is incapable of changing with them.

No real lesson in life becomes our understanding until we realize that each unwanted experience in life serves as a secret reflection of an undetected interior imbalance within us. These lessons exist - and are brought about - to help strengthen, and temper the character of our soul.

In much the same way as a mirror reflects whatever object is brought before it, so our consciousness reflects - and realizes - the character or quality of whatever is revealed within it.

In REAL life there are no "tracks" to follow, but thought runs along the tracks of memory, and memory always departs from, and returns to the same station: the PAST. This explains why it seems we never arrive at the higher station in life called "True Freedom"...because real freedom is not in time.
