Community Chautauqua at Casa Quantico with David Hoffmeister, December 7, 2023,David discusses the importance of letting go and recognizing that what seems important and valuable in the world is part of a trick or deception to keep us from the present moment.He discusses Jesus' teachings on the importance of ego goals based on a timeline of past, present, and future. Jesus emphasizes that everyone who comes to this world organizes their perception based on what they believe and has a self that they create as they go along.The spiritual journey involves letting go and recognizing that what seems valuable is part of a deception to keep us from the present moment. In lesson 133, Jesus teaches us to discern valuable from valueless, moving away from high ideals and bringing the student back to practicality. He states that if something will not last forever, it has no value; if it will last forever, it is valuable. This helps us understand that gain and loss, winning and losing, and success and failure are equally destructive thoughts when put on the timeline.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christRecorded in the afternoon, December 7, 2023, in Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.

Chautauqua Movie Night - Commentary by David Hoffmeister - December 4, 2023At the Chautauqua evening event, David commented on the movie "Dreamin' Wild." The movie explores the unconscious fears and doubts that arise from pursuing dreams. The story takes place over three decades, starting with the initial album of two brothers, Donnie and Joe, who created a great album at 15. The title of their album, "Dreaming Wild," is a metaphor for the pursuit of dreams, as it encourages the mind to explore the world of a linear Dreamland. The movie highlights the importance of pursuing dreams softly and finding happiness in the journey. The movie also highlights the importance of embracing the underbelly of guilt and shame in the mind, as Jesus encourages us to dream softly and find happiness in the journey. Overall, "Dreamin' Wild" is a powerful healing film highlighting the importance of embracing the truth and the journey of self-discovery.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christRecorded in the afternoon, December 4, 2023, in Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.

Community Chautauqua at Casa Quantico with David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles CommunityThis is the first Living Miracles Chautauqua, with more to come. Chautauquas expanded and spread throughout rural America until the mid-1920s. The Chautauqua brought entertainment and culture to the whole community with speakers, teachers, musicians, showpeople, preachers, and specialists of the day.During this dynamic talk, David Hoffmeister covers a number of topics, including how media is a communication tool that allows people to see, read, and listen to information. Like everything we've learned about the world, the body serves a significant purpose in unifying us through forgiveness.The Holy Spirit activates our minds to use this knowledge for a different purpose, such as seeing the false is false. The body was created as a symbol of separation in the ego's fictitious world. Jesus teaches us that the Holy Spirit can transform special relationships into holy relationships and transform the body into a learning device and communication tool."If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christRecorded in the afternoon, December 4, 2023, in Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.

#3 Mexico City - Movie Night Commentary with David HoffmeisterDavid shares a profound commentary for the movie Hypnotic, starring Ben Affleck, for the closing session in Mexico City. Marina Colombo gives the Spanish translation to the entire group.From David's commentary: Wayne Dyer's book, "When You Believe It, Then You'll See It," emphasizes the power of the mind and the fear of miscreation. People often believe they have a powerful mind, and the teachings of the new age teach that people can create their own reality. Jesus teaches that people fear their thoughts and the power of their minds, as they fear miscreation and the potential for disaster. The ego created the world and body to convince the sleeping mind that brains can think, but Jesus argues that believing in thoughts is like holding a matchstick lit to the sun.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christRecorded on the Evening of November 25, 2023, in Mexico City, Mexico.

#1 Mexico City: Opening Session - Recordar a Dios (Remember God)- One-Day RetreatDavid and the Living Miracles team share an opening session in Mexico City. Marina Colombo and Ana Paola offer the Spanish translations of David's English spoken words.This day's theme is remembering God, which requires us to forget this world and come with open arms to our God. Jesus calls us to remember God before time, as He was before Abraham, and we are. The Course in Miracles teaches us that atonement is a complete escape from the past, and the ego does not understand this. To remember God, we must forget all thoughts of time and be practical. Jesus knows we need steps to accept this, such as vanishing memories, letting go of everything we've learned, and even letting go of the future. The ego has invented linear time, splitting time into past and future compartments, part of being human. The belief in the past and future is a trick to keep us from remembering God.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christRecorded on the Morning of November 25, 2023, in Mexico City, Mexico.

Movie Night at La Casa de Milagros - Commentary by David HoffmeisterThe Bible and A Course in Miracles both emphasize that all things work together for good for those who love the Lord. This applies to perception and relationships, as they all have the same purpose and are purposeful. Jesus calls every relationship maximal in terms of teaching and learning.The Course explains that teachers of God have no set teaching level. Still, each teaching-learning situation involves different relationships with the ultimate goal of making the relationship holy. The third level of teaching occurs in lifelong relationships, where each person is given a chosen learning partner who presents unlimited learning opportunities. These relationships are generally few because they involve a perfect teaching-learning balance. Enjoy David's commentary on the movie "When Harry Met Sally."

#12 Movie Session with Q&A - Mystical Community Living Retreat - David HoffmeisterThe song "Let It Go" from Frozen reminds us to let go of the past and the belief system that projected the whole cosmos and memories. Jesus teaches us that judgment is on a continuum, and the ego is a belief in separation from God. The present moment is not the real present moment; the perceptual world is the past. The movie Frozen features two main characters, Elsa and Anna, who have powers and manifestations. However, these powers are not powerful, as all power is of God and spirit. Jesus teaches us that there is only one kind of love, and everything else is an imitation. The problem with preceding power in the cosmos is that it leads to miscreation, as seen in Star Trek.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christRecorded in the Evening of October 7, 2023, at Living Miracles Monastery in Utah, USA.

#11 Movie Session - Mystical Community Living Retreat with David HoffmeisterThis session revolves around a metaphysical gangster movie, which teaches us about the Holy Spirit and is like Jesus using extreme examples to reach the mind. The film reveals the human condition, including jealousy, possessiveness, greed, protectionism, and pride. It helps us understand that these ego-related issues are not limited to gangsters but can be seen in milder forms, like worldly pleasure. Jesus emphasizes that death is death, and to know eternal life, we must see past the trick of death disguised in pleasant forms.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christRecorded in the Evening of October 6, 2023, at Living Miracles Monastery in Utah, USA.
