The place of language in the teaching
Goal
Identifying a 'need' to be gained in the future.
Aim
A direction to go NOW. 'Going' in the fulfillment, not getting.

208. A fully conscious person can play any role he wants to play.

362. We cannot change ourselves. We can only be aware of what is there without judging it.
Who's in charge of my inner state of being? page 31 excerpt
We have allowed our inner state of being to be like an empty beer can kids kick on their way to school. One kicks it down this way, another kicks it back the other way, and another kicks it out on the street and a truck runs over it. And it's all flattened out!!! That is our usual state of being.

213. X renders "Not-I's" inoperative one by one, when they are observed and reported. They cease to be conditioning. They cease to operate the body.
220. When we are not trying to gain or escape anything, not struggling, the mind is quiet.
231. Fear is the result of wanting to be safe.
232. Just because we feel something, doesn't make it true.
346. Point of awareness can observe the conditioning, without identifying or trying to straighten it out. Only X knows what to do with the conditioning.

Teaching ideas
The only thing we can do is change our frame of reference. We have to see and understand, no one can do this for us.
The only possibility for a person to be transformed is by a transformation in the frame of reference. This takes effort and practice. We are never done with practicing. There are all sorts of resistance to this.
We do have an awareness that is not conditioned. It has been asleep for many years.
Ego frame of reference: I know what ought to be; I know what they need; I know what to blame; I know the future.
Anyone operating from the ego frame of reference can make an emergency out of most any situation that comes along.
A man with a new frame of reference is a new man.
