Letting Go with Guy Finley

The fabric of the false self is made up from innumerable strands of experience woven together by an imaginary tailor who lives in terror that what it has made will unravel. This false self has its own unseen life; it maintains and sustains its many ‘I’s through a process of constant diversion. Its favorite devise for…

Fearless self-honesty is the secret cornerstone of true self-freedom.

Join Guy Finley as he explains the revelation of our true self is the natural outcome of a constant pruning away of the illusions we have about our own character…    

We are made to be self-correcting, so that each real correction effected in us elevates us above the dark and limiting influences we have been living under all our lives. Like moving from a hot desert to a cool mountain retreat, each discovery of what darkens our path in life moves us toward higher, happier…

The longer you dwell on some dark thought or feeling, the deeper the special kind of hell you get to experience as the cost of imagining — and then identifying with — a false sense of “I” that not only believes in the world it has created for itself, but that no other world exists.

As long as limitation determines what your actions are, you will not become more free; you will become dependent on what that limitation says you need (such as anti-depressant medication) in order to live with it. In order to get past your perceived limitations, you must meet them head-on so that you can discover that they…

Question: I am feeling very depressed and overwhelmed by sadness and a sense of futility. I just turned 60, and due to a chronic illness I can hardly function physically. My money is not flowing and unless I get it moving I will lose my home. My landlady jumped all over me yesterday and I…
