"Unmasking Illusions: A Journey Beyond Linear Time and Specialness" - A Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister
David's movie commentary dismantles our belief and perception of linear time, private thoughts, and people-pleasing. Private thoughts are defense mechanisms against the Holy Instance, love, light, and simplicity. Jesus teaches that the present moment is the closest approximation of eternity, and all mystics and saints emphasize being present and bringing God's love. However, the linear world of time and space is like a mask pulled over, made out of specialness.
Jesus explains that specialness is the ego, and specialness made this world. This goes beyond the concept of special relationships and what many people think about special relationships. Everything that seems to exist independently is specialness.
David's movie commentary helps us disassemble our faulty perceptions and show that things we assume, are unreal. Jesus teaches us that God did not make trees, the world, or time. He also explains that nothing real can be threatened, and therein lies the peace of God.
The day's lesson is that illusions cannot satisfy God's Son. Carol King's song "Only Love is Real" illustrates this point. The movie commentary reminds us that everything else is an illusion, and understanding the truth about the world is crucial for overcoming our faulty perceptions and embracing God's love.
