A Course in Miracles (ACIM) Podcast

Embracing the Miracle of Unconditional Love and Resurrection - Easter Retreat 2nd Morning Session with David, Lisa, Urpi, and Erik.Jesus, a celestial being, appeared in a human-like apparition after the crucifixion. He made 22 more appearances after his death, teaching the same teachings in an angelic or resurrected body. On Easter Saturday, Jesus body disappeared, symbolizing his oneness with God. The resurrection is the resurrection of the mind, and once the mind recognizes itself as one with the mind of God, the Father and Son are one in pure spirit beyond the world.Jesus lived a fearless life because he was in divine love. Even during the crucifixion, he followed the Holy Spirit and forgave the world without guilt. This is similar to some great yogis and masters from India who walk with their bare feet on hot coals. Jesus had transcended guilt and could still speak from the cross, saying, "Forgive them, for they know not what they do." He knew that even the people weren't real because God was spirit, and he was forgiving the projections of the world.The resurrection experiences, or miracles, are seen as a way to heal the mind and overcome the temptations and trials every human being faces. The body can have symptoms that are a projection of the ego, but the body is neutral. Jesus had no shadows left in his mind and took no shadows of the world seriously. He could say with the authority of God, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. Follow me."The Jesus: A Gospel of Love Easter Retreat, held from March 29-31, was a transformative three-day in-person event at La Casa de Milagros in Chapala, Mexico. During this retreat, David Hoffmeister unveiled the true essence of Jesus as a symbol of pure love through enlightening talks, parables, Q&As, a movie shared with profound commentary, and inspiring live music. To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded, March 31, 2024, at La Casa de Milagros, Chapala, Mexico.Follow us on:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles: https://livingmiraclescenter.orgLearn more about A Course in Miracles: https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWw

Crossing Dimensions of Joy: Reflection on Time, Salvation, and the Path of Atonement with David Hoffmeister.In this first morning session of the Jesus: A Gospel of Love Easter Retreat, David reflects on Easter, the day Jesus was crucified, and the significance of the cross in Christian culture. Jesus emphasized the vertical and horizontal crossings, stating that the vertical represents alignment with Jesus and the Holy Spirit, and the horizontal represents the earth plane or linear time plane. The present moment is inspired by the vertical, while the past and future are defined by the horizontal.Jesus underscores the transformative power of joy, not as a distant reward but as a catalyst for immediate liberation. This enduring joy is possible and within our reach through the resurrection. He affirms that we can directly connect with God and are called to be miracle workers and teachers of God, collapsing time and shortening the horizontal bar on the cross.Practicing miracles helps us return to the center, where we and the Father are one, and the present moment extends into eternity. Saints and mystics have discussed the concept of the cross as a symbol of the ultimate goal of salvation.The Jesus: A Gospel of Love Easter Retreat, held from March 29-31, was a transformative three-day in-person event at La Casa de Milagros in Chapala, Mexico.

“Reflections on Judgment and Oneness: The Journey of Clavius and the Teachings of Jesus” Easter Retreat Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister.The human condition is a projection of our preferences; when our preferences are met, we seem happy. However, when our preferences are not met, we have bad days. Jesus teaches us to let go of judgment, which appears to keep order in our perceived life. The ego believes that without judgment, all will be chaos, but Jesus teaches us that without judgment, all is love.He also teaches us that there is only one God and only one love. One God, mind, heart, and spirit. Enlightenment is just the awareness of pure oneness with no opposite. In A Course in Miracles, Jesus emphasizes the importance of forgiveness and that the crucifixion is an extreme teaching example for awakening. What is that extreme example for? The nothingness of the body and the allness of the spirit. That is the only lesson required for awakening.The Jesus: A Gospel of Love Easter Retreat, March 29-31, was a three-day in-person retreat at La Casa de Milagros in Chapala, Mexico. In this retreat, David revealed the true nature of Jesus as a symbol of pure love using enlightenment talks and parables, Q&As, a movie shared with profound commentary, and inspiring live music.To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded, March 29, 2024, at La Casa de Milagros, Chapala, Mexico.Follow us on:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles: https://livingmiraclescenter.orgLearn more about A Course in Miracles: https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWw

"The Illusion of Unconscious Guilt: Exploring Forgiveness and Redemption" Movie Workshop Commentary with David HoffmeisterIn this movie workshop, David discusses the concept of unconscious guilt and fear, which are deeply ingrained in the mind. Deep desires in the subconscious mind allow the ego to create a world of illusions and false evidence. This unconscious guilt can lead to blame, condemnation, and fault. Jesus emphasizes the importance of forgiveness, acceptance of atonement, and the impossibility of the ego's belief in separation. Jesus warns us that the world is a battle of masks, and to find peace, one must come above the battleground. This perspective sees the mind as One that cannot attack itself; then, the entire projected world is a hallucination of the belief in the attack. You have to believe in an attack before you can perceive it. "If you spot it, you got it." This is a cute way to remember that you perceive it if you believe it. To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded, March 23, 2024, in Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.Follow us on:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles: https://livingmiraclescenter.orgLearn more about A Course in Miracles: https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWw

Beyond the Veil:  Exploring Love and Relationships - A Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David HoffmeisterIn this talk, David Hoffmeister draws on Jesus’ teachings to illuminate the true nature of our existence. He emphasizes that we are not separate from our Creator but one Spirit, Christ. The movie commentary takes us into an experience of reality much beyond what we would call the everyday human experience. The real love of God is so far beyond human experience that we have only received glimmers, and the prayer remains: "Bring me a higher love." The movie commentary takes us beyond our limited definitions of love and relationship. It lifts us higher into a sense of the holy relationship: the connection with the divine and the holy instant. David is a mastermind guiding us toward a deeper understanding of love and relationships.To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded, March 9, 2024, in Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.Follow us on:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles: https://livingmiraclescenter.orgLearn more about A Course in Miracles: https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWw

Dismantling of the 'I know mind' - A Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David HoffmeisterThe Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop is a bi-weekly event that aims to teach the concept of atonement, a correction in the mind. Jesus emphasizes that the sole responsibility of the miracle worker and teacher of God is to accept the atonement for themselves, which involves correcting our thinking and belief system. Our actions come from our thoughts; Jesus calls this the "Hero of the Dream." This includes historical characters such as Jesus, mystics, saints, and people labeled as tyrants, Hitler, Mussolini, and Osama bin Laden.The Holy Spirit and Christ's mind offer us right-mindedness or corrected thought, and when we think with God, we come back to thinking eternal thoughts with God, which is where the wake-up occurs. The hero of the dream is a person or mask used to cover the face of Christ. Symbols throughout history, such as Gandhi, Albert Einstein, C.S. Lewis, and Sigmund Freud, are used today to illustrate the concept of the 'I know mind.'A Course in Miracles draws from various schools of thought, vernaculars, psychology, and psychiatry, with many of these concepts being based on Freud's work. By using symbols and teachings from various schools of thought, we can better understand the atonement process and the role of the mind in our lives.To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded in the Morning, February 24, 2024, in Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.Follow us on:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles: https://livingmiraclescenter.orgLearn more about A Course in Miracles: https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWw

The Resurrection of the Mind - Online Gathering with David Hoffmeister with Spanish TranslationRuben Goy from 'COMUNIDAD VIVIR EL PERDÓN' invited David Hoffmeister to talk to his community. David discusses the concept of the resurrection of the mind, a concept that most people often overlook. The mind is often seen as a mere part of their experience of Earth, with only psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, philosophers, and scientists investing time in discovering it.However, most people are aware of their bodies and thoughts but often feel like they are just reacting to the external world. David suggests that the spiritual journey involves rediscovering the mind. The first step is to remember the mind, which is the focus of the workbook of A Course in Miracles. He emphasizes the power of thought and that the mind is not private to individuals. The notion of private minds and thoughts is an error.You can experience David online in a Tribe Movie Workshop every other Saturday.

From Jesus in ACIM WB lesson 24: “In no situation that arises do you realize the outcome that would make you happy. Therefore, you have no guide to appropriate action, and no way of judging the result. What you do is determined by your perception of the situation, and that perception is wrong. It is inevitable, then, that you will not serve your own best interests. Yet they are your only goal in any situation which is correctly perceived. Otherwise, you will not recognize what they are. If you realized that you do not perceive your own best interests, you could be taught what they are. But in the presence of your conviction that you do know what they are, you cannot learn. The idea for today is a step toward opening your mind so that learning can begin.

"A Collaborative Adventure" - A Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David HoffmeisterWe often forget our eternal identity and become distracted by idols, such as the body, which is created to replace and take over our Christ self. This profound amnesia can lead to a world where we seek certain characters, like Lego characters, to become our saviors.Christianity has been criticized for holding onto the belief in Jesus as a personal Lord and Savior, even though he lived 2,000 years ago. Jesus tells us that all these images projected from the ego are effects of an unreal cause and that the real cause is Christ, an idea in God's mind.In the spiritual realm, everything is light extending light, love extending love extending love, and eternity extending eternity. There is no beginning or end to creation, nor has eternity.To experience the depth of today's movie, we need to read A Course in Miracles' section called "The Hero of the Dream," which discusses the complex nature of dualistic concepts and the difficulty in relationships. Jesus teaches us that the body is the central figure in the dreaming of the world, acting as if it were a person to be seen and believed.To participate online in a Tribe Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded in the Morning, February 10, 2024, in Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.Follow us on:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles: https://livingmiraclescenter.orgLearn more about A Course in Miracles: https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWw
