"There's a choice you make in everything you do, and the choice you makes you"

"A body came into the world, but it wasn't you. Because you were 

unenlightened, you thought it was you. And everybody else said it 

was — so you swallowed it all. Cosmic energy came into the world, 

but it wasn't you. 

You swear you were born, so therefore you think you are going to 

die; you fear that "you" are not going to continue.  The purpose 

of this class is to withdraw such false information that you have

about yourself, which causes fear."

The real peace cannot be disturbed.

"See a delusion as a delusion by seeing its discomfort."

"It's a cheerful thought that you can learn at first without 

straining and without understanding what you are learning.

That means a lot to you if you can see it. It means that you 

come to a class or read a book or enter into a learning experi-

ence without any desperation at all, without any self-labels, 

such as calling yourself a slow-learner, but you enter into the 

learning experience with just one thing, with a relaxed mind 

that isn’t trying to prove that it can have instant insight.

The lessons, spiritual lessons included, have to come to you.

Now coming to you doesn’t mean coming to the you that you’ve 

always been because if they get the lessons, they’re going to 

twist them into their own favorite shapes.

I’m trying to tell you that now, right now as you’re listening 

to me, you can’t be there to do anything at all with these high 

powerful truths that you’re hearing and are going to hear more of.

What you can do is know that you are trying to interfere with the 

lessons and then just step out of your own way. When you do that 

you will have a new and true learning experience and it will be 

like a bulldozer that pushes the trash on the lot out of the way 

to leave the ground clear and clean, ready for the planting of 

the spiritual seeds where something fruitful can grow."

Question: What is non attachment?

Answer: As thoughts arise, destroying them utterly without any residue in the very place of their origin is non-attachment.

"...when one's self becomes quiescent, all becomes quiescent."

May all beings be healed and whole.

May all beings have whatever they want and need.

May all beings be protected, safe and free of fear.

May all beings be awakened, liberated and free.

May all beings have peace in their world and in their universe.

  Hold in mind what you want and that is what you will be getting all the time.

Ascending seekers must rid themselves of self-labels, such as being 

knowledgeable or authoritative. This lightening of yourself

enables you to reach the level of instruction, where you can 

hear and begin to understand your teacher. A sincere climber 

will never fail to hear."
