You need three kinds of faith to progress on this Path. You need faith in your Self; if you you’re going to be with me as a Teacher, you need faith in the Teacher; that the Teacher is real; and the third thing you need faith in is Life, Life Itself; the very nature of Life that gives birth to the Wisdom-Mind. That this thing that we are searching for — Wisdom, Knowledge, Truth — is something that’s going to be revealed from within the very power of Life, not from somewhere else. So if you have that triadic unity: faith in your Self, faith in the Teacher, faith in Life — then you have everything. Then it’s easy to just melt into Consciousness.

Participant: So, if I experience beingness as just bliss and joy, what is everything else? David: It’s all that. It’s all that. Except it’s not so much that, when you begin to suffer, either through physical ailments or through the aging process ...
David: Yes. Participant: How can you, how can one stay connected with that type of relationship? David: Participant: How can what? Participant: …one stay connected with that type of relationship? Because, you know, living day-to-day, or being ...
The thought just occurred to me, where does the energy come from to live through this process of self-awakening? It does not come from discrete acts of human effort. It does not come from self-willed consciousness. You’ve got to begin to feel ...
Participant: I mostly want to say thank you. I was here in February… and I meant to make it back… it feels even better than it did in February, a lot of light. And on that topic of pain that you were describing, like, an example of the worst ...
Even though I speak, my teaching is one hundred percent internal. It’s a deepening, an immersion and also an outpouring from the depths. It’s bliss. It’s the language of bliss, which is the language of the heart. Real spirituality is nothing but ...
Once you begin to love me and trust in you, then everything is ready to go off into cosmic intensity. Once you begin to relax in total trust and innate surrender, one that is brought on by this very communication. It’s not something that you ...
When you speak directly out of your heart and out your experience then there is no mistake that it’s real. There is no doubt. Your own self will never lie to you. Your husband will lie, your wife will lie, your guru will lie, the religious books ...
