Finding Gold

When we are not in truth, we are not in reality. So this is our struggle-to come out of the distorted ways we see the world. That's how we must go to find the core of our being. Eventually, we'll start living from our core rather than from our erroneous thinking. It is then, when we act and react from our core, that we can reach and affect the core of other people. To do that, we have to become whole again-we must become undivided. So our work is to find our own unique brand of unreality buried in our wrong conclusions, unnecessary defenses and evasions. It is logical that we must climb this mountain on our own, if we want what's at the top. Paradoxically, that is where we'll find our core. Our real self is one whole nugget, waiting for us to find it. "This collection of teachings from the Guide about contacting the Self contains nuggets of wisdom that range from subtle to sublime. It includes the most powerful teachings I have had the pleasure of applying to myself and my life. And although these lectures were actually given decades ago, their potential for propelling a person a giant step forward on one's spiritual path has been unchanged by time. It gives me great pleasure to bring them forward for others to 'enjoy.' In my endeavoring to condense and lighten the Guide's words, I have worked to convey the same concepts using alternative language. Hopefully this will aid in the digestion of these deep truths. As Mary Poppins put it, 'A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.' Blessings on your journey. May you find yourself inspired by the Guide, as I have been, and through this may you begin to find yourself." - Jill Loree
