SECRETS OF LIFE

***************************************************************************
"We're going to talk about the urge to change. Where does a human being
get the yearning, the urge to start walking up that hill, looking and
seeing what's on the other side and then go over to it? Where does this
yearning come from; how do people acquire it?
Now you listen carefully, because if you want something different from the
dry hard land that you have lived in, you can start tonight to use these
principles to change yourself internally. And the pretty colorful fields
are inside, are they not? That's what we're talking about, and they are
right now, they are not in the future. If you cancel time, you can be over
on that other side of the hill right now, right tonight, as we're talking
here.
The urge to change yourself, to have something different, other than
isolation and desolation, comes in two ways. It comes first of all, through
doing what you are doing right here now.
You're acquiring certain fundamentals, information, facts about the fact
that you are dissatisfied with your life. I've described you accurately,
have I not? All of you watching this film or listening to this talk, you
know very well I've described you accurately. You're being given the
facts about the way you are now and you are given facts about the other
side of the hill which you don't know. Because that is not an experience
with you, because lack of dissatisfaction is on the other side of the hill
and you don't know that yet. What you can know is where you are tonight -
you have to be real honest about it.
So after coming to a class like this, through work on yourself too, you
acquire a lot of facts, information, knowledge about the general situation,
what your life, what the whole world is like, not just you. Everyone is
like you anyway; they just put on different costumes and different masks to
pretend that they're different. This is another trick of human nature.
Now, after a while, at a certain point in collecting information about
yourself, about how your mind works, about how you react to daily life, at
a certain point of self-knowledge - I'm going to tell you the key
thought in just a minute, you might even want to write it down or remember
it, it's very important - at a certain point, you will understand what it
means to use the energy in your dissatisfaction. Now let's go real slow
on that one.
After a while, after certain wisdom starts to come to you, you see the
enormous secret of using the energy right in your thousands of
dissatisfactions and complaints and rebellions and angers; look at the vast
amount of energy available to you right now. And you know what your day has
been like, what your month has been like, what your life has been like.
See all the energy in it, and you tell yourself where you spend it. You
tell yourself where all that psychic energy went and was wasted, in
pretense, in pretending that you are happy, in pretense that you have a
real goal in life, in pretense that you did the best you could with your
life up to this point. All the deceptions that we have, have a vast amount
of power in them.
Now, at a point, as I said, you will learn to stay so awake, that the next
time you watch an irritation, a dissatisfaction, a complaint, a striking
out at someone, at that moment you remember that this is power - but wrongly
used. The very remembering of that, the very seeing it inside of yourself,
will tell you you have to depart from where you are."
