In this episode, George Falcon covers some of the same themes he returns to again and again: we are free and we just need to remember that; who we really are is not who we think it is; the difference between doing/having/wanting vs being; and the inescapable relationship between our experiences and our beliefs. All these ideas require us to âthink differentâ so in the introduction, Zebediah Rice tries to come to terms with what âthinking differentâ means, whether âbeing stillâ is really such a good idea and what a life of doing nothing actually looks like.

Zebediah Rice begins this episode by sharing some of the insights he learned from Peter Wohllebenâs best-selling book, âThe Hidden Life of Trees.â It turns out that trees do all sorts of extraordinary and almost human-like things. For example, they care for each other, have memories, make friends, think, and talk with each other. And scientists have shown that humans can hear this tree conversation, albeit at an unconscious level. In this episode, Zebediah Rice has selected several clips from his library of recordings of George Falconâs talks where this idea of treeâs ability to communicate and remember is discussed and used as a metaphor for the human connection to the divine. In Wohllebenâs book we learn that following the lessons from the higher or greater elements in the natural chain from leaf to tree to forest gives each tree the power to realize its full potential. Primarily using Christian language (since that was the audience), but also alluding to Hindu, Buddhist and Taoist concepts, George Falcon explains that, as with individual trees, each of us individual humans, if we follow the rules set out by the universe and allow life to do its job rather than each of us trying to control the details of our fates, can live the best life possible.

In this episode we do things a little differently. You may notice in the podcast line-up there are a number of Guided Meditations. In addition to George Falconâs standard guided meditations of varying lengths, you will also see a series of Guided Training Meditations. In todayâs episode the focus is on these training meditations. Youâll see them with names like Refiling, Split Screen, and Fire and the Well and in this episode you will hear Zebediah Rice and George Falcon explain how and why to do them, and why they work.

In this episode, George Falcon reminds us that who we really are has nothing to do with phenomena. We are not an object or anything with form, characteristics, attributes, or limits. We are not subject to time, space, motion, or electromagnetism. And we have no beginning or ending or duration. He then goes on to explain who we really are and how to remember that using his metaphor of The Three Bags and the model of Consciousness vs. Awareness. The trick, he explains, is that consciousness is fashioned, by us, to create our experience. We have the power to fashion reality as we wish so why not make it great? We just have to anchor our identity in Awareness and accept the power that is ours by definition.

In this episode, George Falcon reminds us who we really are and explains some of the techniques we can employ in order to wake up to our own freedom and limitlessness. He goes on to discuss the idea that everything we perceive is an illusion, an identifiable pattern of energy. Even emotions fall into that category. It turns out that we can control energy, so we get to decide how we feel from moment to moment.

In this episode, George Falcon speaks with Zebediah Rice about death and dying. He answers questions like âWhy do people get sick and die even when they believe in God?â âWhy arenât all monks enlightened?â âWhy is the world is filled with suffering, injustice, and death?â âWhat is the method for transcending all of that?â âWhen someone is dead, are they gone completely and permanently?â âIf someone I love dies, what can I do to deal with my sadness?â and âIf someone is sick or dying, what can I do to help?â

In this episode, George Falcon explains the way that he developed his ability to sense, see, and feel non-visible energy and provides a simple exercise for how we can too. He talks about the power available to each of us if we can integrate ourselves with our higher levels of consciousness and explains how to do that. It is back to the advice he has given many times: learning to be still (e.g. meditate or Qi Gong practice), breaking habits (through training) and letting go. He talks about whether you can reconcile ancient Eastern medicine with modern Western methods. And he compares a life operating from instinct or the intellect to that guided by intuition and inspiration and makes some surprising statements such as our intuitive selfâs ability to know the future. As with Episode #8, the episode comes with a listener advisory: the discussion contains some of the more mysterious and metaphysical elements of George Falconâs teachings.

In this episode, George Falcon answers a few of Zeb Riceâs questions such as: What is reality? Is it all just a dream? If it is a dream, who is the dreamer? Why did we fall asleep in the first place? Is that the same thing as the âFall from Grace?" Do we really need to wake up? If psychic powers are possible, and are as powerful as he suggests, why doesnât he teach them? If we are who he says we really are, why do we keep reincarnating rather than just being that? If we really are in a cycle of birth, life, death and rebirth, why are so many babies born in such horrible conditions? Listener advisory: This episode contains some of the more far out or mystical elements of George Falconâs teachings so it may not be for you.

The main topic in this episode is what George calls the four different rules of logic that are available to us: 1) either/or 2) relativity; 3) not two; 4) neither/nor. He also talks about the relationship between our experiences and beliefs and makes use of his âseven stages of masteryâ model to remind us where we are on the path and what we need to do to advance. Zeb Rice introduces the talk and provides background on Georgeâs types of logic and âseven stages of mastery.' This is an audio version of the fourth in the Sunday Lecture series available on Vimeo.

In this episode, George Falcon describes three methods for remembering our true selves and becoming enlightened (the Good, the Superior, and the Supreme methods). As the names suggest, George believes the Superior and Supreme are more effective, but they require more discipline. George doesnât care whether it is meditation, contemplation, prayer, Tai Qi, Qi Gong, yoga or whatever the method is, as long as you are dedicating yourself to the practice and sustain the intention to wake up.

In this episode, George Falcon explains to us that reality is illusory, how we wake up from that illusion, and what it is like once we do wake up. And in Zebediah Rice's introduction, he provides a taste of some of the scientific support for this claim of the illusory nature of reality to compliment Georgeâs more spiritually focused talk. It is an audio version of the second in the George Falcon Sunday Teaching series available on the George Falcon Vimeo channel.

This episode is about starting your spiritual journey. To do that Zebediah Rice tells the story of how he met George and shares the audio from their first conversation. In that talk, George provides an introduction for a first-time student on how to begin on the spiritual path. He gives an overview of the eight-chakra model (which are in parallel with the levels of consciousness discussed in prior podcasts). He discusses why the spiritual journey doesnât end in annihilation of the self and the severing of ones connections with loved ones. And he shares a few insights such as the four principles of martial arts and the meaning of agape love. And, don't be too skeptical, he actually takes astrology seriously and even as integral to his model.

George Falcon leads you on a 30 minute informal guided meditation. This guided meditation helps us condition our mind to become used to the idea that we are not our brains or our bodies. We are not the content of our awareness. And once we realize the truth of that statement we can exercise our power to choose what emotions we want to have, when we want to have them and for how long we would like to feel that way.
