Joel S. Goldsmith: Why SPIRITUAL EFFORT Keeps You Stuck — Discover the Power of SILENCE

Joel S. Goldsmith: Why SPIRITUAL EFFORT Keeps You Stuck — Discover the Power of SILENCE Why does struggle persist—even after prayer, study, meditation, and years of sincere spiritual seeking? This talk, voiced in the spirit of Joel S. Goldsmith and aligned with The Infinite Way, goes straight to the hidden reason many devoted students remain caught in subtle inner conflict: the struggle doesn’t continue because God is absent… it continues because God is being used. The message is both startling and freeing. When you try to apply truth to fix life—heal the body, quiet fear, secure supply, improve your spiritual state—you may unknowingly accept a divided universe: God and the problem, truth and error, Spirit and something opposed to Spirit. And the moment that assumption is accepted, spiritual life becomes another project, another form of effort, another battleground—only more refined. You’ll hear a profound reversal: The effort to overcome struggle is the continuation of struggle. Peace is not something you achieve; it’s what remains when resistance ends. Silence is not a method, not a practice, not a technique—silence is what is revealed when the belief that “something must be done” is relinquished. “Be still and know” was never an invitation to do something with God—only to cease. This teaching explores the subtle trap of turning even silence into effort: the mind immediately asks, “How do I do it?”—and in that very question, stillness is lost. You’ll learn the difference between human quiet (a mental activity that calms) and spiritual silence (a revealed state where the doer disappears and only awareness remains). The talk also explains why doing nothing can feel unsafe. The human mind has been conditioned to believe survival depends on control—planning, defending, managing outcomes. So when effort drops away, fear may surge. But this fear isn’t proof of danger; it’s the alarm system of the belief in separation. As that belief dissolves, fear fades—not because you defeat it, but because it’s no longer needed. You’ll also see why the world misunderstood the silence of Christ Jesus—mistaking it for delay or indifference—when in truth, it revealed union with the Father: no second power to answer, no appearance to resist, no situation requiring panic. If you’ve been striving to “do the right spiritual thing,” this message offers a gentler doorway: rest. Not passivity—recognition. Because the moment struggle ends, power appears… not as force, but as Presence. Listen slowly. Let the pressure drop. And discover what remains when effort finally stops.
