Addiction is a powerful personal struggle like many other personal struggles
Our thinking causes the problem
Don’t let the Past harm you
Forgive Yourself
Get rid of the baggage and see the Innocence in all people and situations
Hope is important
Greg and David Discussion
The building up of stories over the years leads to low self-esteem issues
Without hope, it is difficult to conquer anyone's demons
With drugs and alcohol, one has to let go of their personal view of themselves
Dad really believed in a “Second Chance”, and that is the name of his first book
Cravings change as the level of consciousness goes up or down. It is natural to see the world differently as the level of consciousness rises
One can’t heal others until he heals himself. Physician, Heal Thyself
Always follow positive feelings. The negative feeling is a signal much like a stop sign on the road
Only God is right

Questions for Dave from the Participants
What is the right way to learn the Principles?
A quiet place where one taps into the Divine Source, and that gives you your answer. David says you are looking for a State of Grace
What language is relevant to reaching the world outside of the 3P Community?
Terminology is not important. Quiet your mind and get into a state of grace. Then Divine Intelligence leads.
What truly is the quiet voice of Wisdom compared to personal thought?
As the level of consciousness rises => increased wisdom.
It all has to be with the feeling.
INTELLECTUAL THINKING is thinking about thinking.
