A Course in Miracles (ACIM) Podcast Weekly Online Movie Gathering - Movie "Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner?" with David Hoffmeister

Welcome to Living Miracles Weekly Online Movie Gathering with commentary by David Hoffmeister
The top themes of the week's poll were resistance to following guidance, fear of rejection and as the third contender, body thoughts. The movie that would bring all this together with a strong sense of actuality to currents events in the United States was an old sixties movie called "Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner? Directed by Stanley Kramer
The movie shows the inherent racism that still lurks in the mind of seeming progressive people and as such a comment to the uproar that is taking place in the USA at the moment from the Black Lives Matter movement.
David put everything in perspective by stating that the only non-racist entity is the Christ, because Christ is pure love. Racism is just an offspring of its maker which is the ego and the ego is the source of rage, of wars, of prejudices and comparison, of superiority. The ego is a make-believe concept or idea, that has no reality and yet until we wake up we will believe in the ego. The ego made humans and if we believe we are human beings we are by definition a human racist, that is the construct of the ego and there is no reformation or solution to that in the world of time and space. Jesus says you can't heal what isn't real. You have to begin to overlook what the ego invented and forgive what the ego made entirely. You will not be able to solve it.
Watching movies is a way of stepping back and remembering that what we see on the screen is not real. Life itself is a big projection. There is a method to watch movies in an enlightened way that leads to observing the events and scenes and scripts of the world—with forgiving eyes. These spiritual movies can be used as a way of expanding consciousness and ultimately experiencing the depth and meaning of the Inner Self.
The movie gathering was recorded Wednesday, June 4, 2020, in Casa Quantico, Ajijic, Mexico
