How different would your life be if you knew the secrets that could end all forms of stress, fear, anxiety, and depression? How much would your life change if you found the secret ingredients that produce perfect relationships? How different would your days be if you knew everything you've ever truly wanted was already well within your present reach?

Everyone feels it. And most of us know it's not right. But only a few find out the real story behind what all of us sense is true: we are not meant to walk around bent over, burdened by the weight of our own past. We can do so much better than struggle to sweeten what is bitter. Besides, it doesn't work.

As it is said: "Love makes all things possible". But love is more than just the promise of what could be; love is the secret source of freedom itself. Love serves as the creative force behind all that perfects and fulfills life. But it is greater still. Examine any good and noble quality in creation: peace, fearlessness, success, happiness, excellence. Hidden there in its secret heart we find that its character has been born by an act of love.

We are never judged for whatever may be our present degree of spiritual blindness. Only when we agree to turn a blind eye to some truth about ourselves that life has asked us to see are we instantly punished by our refusal to see.

Part 1: The only thing gained by any lie you tell yourself, or to others, is the soon to be shattered illusion that it's possible to protect a fear. Part 2: Lying to yourself about yourself, or to others, may delay the day when you must pay for what you are, but every day delayed in such a way, doubles the cost of the amount due.

Higher, or conscious awareness of any impression in life requires the presence of both an observer and the observed; what this means is that the observer and the observed (serve to) answer the need of a Timeless Presence whose awareness brings them into existence.

Our best guarantee for a brighter, freer tomorrow is found inside the interior work we do to change our understanding about ourselves and the world we live in. In these 31 brief talks, you will get the knowledge and practices you need to change your life. Work with one talk a day and be a new you in a month! Or go at your own pace.

Within you lives an untapped wellspring of wisdom and love, a fearless nature that nothing can shake. To awaken to its timeless presence is to realize that real life can no more act to pull you down than does the rising sun burden the spring flowers that wait to bathe in its nourishing light.

There is an invisible barrier that stands in the way of our happiness. The evidence is all around us. Only the few are willing to see it. And these people succeed where most others fail. What is it that stands in the way between us and the kind of success we've always dreamed of? Fear. It's true. Even the most successful people in the world fear losing what they have gained.

There’s nothing wrong with hoping for the best; in truth, it's natural. But whenever we will remember the following truth and then dare to act on it, we are guaranteed good fortune and whatever we may encounter along the way: The power we need to fulfill our highest possibility in any moment is always right where we are, because...it dwells within us.

What power has any dark dream to hijack, and hold us captive in its shadowy domain, without our first having agreed to hand over our sense of self, for whatever the compensation of that stimulation we find there in its strange world?

This is the ultimate power that enables us to live free of a painful past, free of concern over the future, free to speak our heart and seek our true happiness.

Wanting to be anywhere else besides where you are in the moment is not only an unseen wish for unceasing conflict, but it also gives away the power you need to see through the parts of you that would have you to believe in this great lie. Just keep rushing around and you will find, in time, a place where you ll finally be at peace with yourself.

All is well for the one who never forgets that within and around him exist the presence of invisible but interpenetrating worlds - high and low - that are ceaseless in their influence and actions upon him.

We can only be as fearless in life as we are as conscious of our true purpose for being alive. Discover how to use every minute of your life to be fearlessly true to who you really are.

Every moment - no matter what it brings to you - is made especially for you - to transform you into a happier, brighter, more fulfilled human being.

Asking God for a new life is only the first step; it is but half the necessary action. The other half of the request, without which one's wish can never be answered, is to make room for what is new to enter your life. Learn to let go and grow into a peace that passes all understanding.

Yours is the spiritual right to walk through this life free of regret... and without any fear of what awaits you just ahead. Realize the four powers that prove you are already free.

Stop complaining. Start changing. The appearance of every moment comes with an unseen pair of "buttons": One says "down", and the other says "up", which means that the direction that your life goes in is your choice.

To enter into the next level of meditation is to discover and then realize the next level of your own higher consciousness. With this course you will take a deep look at what mindfulness means, how it can elevate your life, and how you can take your work of meditation, and your wish to gain the gifts it brings, into your daily experience.
