    I did it with video which can only be seen on my youtube channel. It's good you can't see it because the visual is terrible and I didn't try to look good!

    I kind of thought I was in an echo chamber since I'm an unknown person without prominence in the Course community. I started doing this at the request of one single person. LOL I enjoy it and view it as a tribute to my beloved teacher, Ken Wapnick. I followed one path and had one teacher - so this is all I know.

    Thank you for listening :-)

  • An Inconvenient Course 10.19.24
    Oct 19 2024
    Dreams of Convenience

    This episode is about how the Course is inconvenient since our goal is to stay asleep. The Course awakens awareness of our great companion and we can see that we have a split mind. That mind both welcomes and resists the Course. We try to incorporate it into the dream as a compromise approach.

    A "dream of convenience" as Freud said, serves two purposes: 1. it satisfies a wish and 2. it safeguards sleep. The dream serves as "the guardian of sleep" and, in that sense, every dream is a dream of convenience.

    Through forgiveness, we change the purpose of the dream and transcend the dream of convenience.

  • A Dream of Murder 08.07.24
    Aug 7 2024
    The world we seem to live in arose from the idea of murder - giving rise to the ideas of sin, guilt, and fear. Every corner of this place that is not our home is 100% hate. The way out is to ask Jesus for help; take his hand; and look with him. We don't try to change the dream - not what we think, say, or do or what anyone else thinks, says, or does. We can't change the dream. We can choose to change our mind about it.

    Peace on your journey. May it be gently lit by miracles.

  • A Tiny Spot of Senseless Mystery 05.26.24
    May 27 2024
    Just some Sunday thoughts on what we're looking at with Jesus.
    Jesus says we are steadfastly devoted to misery and that we need to first recognize we are miserable and not happy. "The Holy Spirit cannot teach without this contrast because we believe that misery is happiness." When there are conditions under which the Holy Spirit cannot teach, there are conditions under which we cannot learn.

    It is essential we look at the darkness - in fact, it's all there is to see with the bodies eyes while we seem to walk the earth. We can experience a reflection of the truth when we forgive which means we look upon our choice for the ego without judgment. We can only do that with Jesus or the HS.

    Thank you for listening. I appreciate you being here. :-)

  • ACIM: A Context for Experience
    Feb 18 2024
    The Truth does not depend on illusions. In order to feel the mercy and beauty of the Course, do not use anything that you believe you perceive to operate as a block to the awareness of Heaven. Defenses only seem to work because we want them to work. There is no need to dream of an escape from dreaming. As the Course states "...escape depends, not on the dream, but only on awakening."

  • The Ugliness of the Face of Innocence
    Jan 1 2024
    ACIM sections referenced:
    Chap. 31 The Final Vision; Section V Self-Concept versus Self
    WB Lesson 132
    WB Lesson 158
    Chap. 18 The Passing of the Dream; Section V The Happy Dream
    Chap. 29 The Awakening; Section IV Dream Roles
    Chap. 12 The Holy Spirit's Curriculum; Section III The Investment in Reality
    WB Lesson 182

    As Workbook Lesson 182 states: "You have not lost your innocence. It is for this you yearn. This is your heart's desire. This is the voice you hear, and this the call which cannot be denied."

    We cannot want the false innocence of the "face of innocence" - the innocence that proclaims another is guilty. We look at that face in order to look beyond it and stop deceiving ourselves. Nothing outside of us can bring happiness and Peace to us, but there is nothing outside of us. The Truth is all there is and everything else is our own nightmare.
