How to Have It All Handled by Inspiration - Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister

How to Have It All Handled by Inspiration - Movie Workshop with David HoffmeisterDavid discusses the importance of the Holy Week, the week from Palm Sunday to Easter, as it serves as a beam of light that pierces through humanity's fog of ignorance and separation, helping everyone realize their divine nature. He emphasizes following divine guidance rather than personal inspiration, listening to the Holy Spirit, and unwinding from time and space. Trusting in inspiration means letting go of fear and false responsibility and living moment by moment based on what feels most inspiring. David also discusses the ideas of zero percent reliance on senses, perfect equality, and the importance of authenticity and transparency. Lastly, David emphasizes the story of Mary Magdalene and Jesus as reminders of God's oneness and love leading up to the celebration of Easter.Enjoy the profound commentary by David Hoffmeister.To learn more about the Weekly Movie Workshops, look here: https://bit.ly/ACIM-Movie-Workshop.You can watch the introduction to the movie workshop on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/live/I5b7WooJw7s?feature=shareLook for more info on David Hoffmeister and upcoming events: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.The movie workshop was recorded Saturday, April 1, 2023, Online.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

Finding Out There Is No World - Online Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister

Finding Out There Is No World - Online Movie Workshop with David HoffmeisterThis week's movie is the ultimate forgiveness movie and will take viewers symbolically toward the light. He emphasizes that true forgiveness is about forgiving the ego and not just individuals and that forgiveness is necessary to remove barriers to the awareness of love's presence. Love is far beyond the awareness of this world and requires forgiveness. David speaks about the concept of being born again in spirit, which involves being fully present and giving up the belief in the horizontal plane. He explains that true forgiveness involves overlooking the belief in separation rather than forgiving individual people. David believes the movie will take viewers symbolically toward the light and help them bring the darkness in their minds to the light of truth.Enjoy the profound commentary on "Solaris'' by David Hoffmeister.To learn more about the Weekly Movie Workshops, look here: https://bit.ly/ACIM-Movie-Workshop.You can watch the introduction to the movie workshop on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/5b0B4NqVeu0Look for more info on David Hoffmeister and upcoming events: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.The movie workshop was recorded Saturday, March 12, 2023, Online.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

"Pray, Listen & Follow" Online Weekend Retreat - Closing Session with David Hoffmeister and Frances Xu

"Pray, Listen & Follow" Online Weekend Retreat - Closing Session with David Hoffmeister and Frances XuIn this session, David and Frances discuss and answer questions on the retreat theme of learning to pray, listen, and follow. They express their gratitude for the attendees' heartfelt questions and interactions. They also discuss the movie shown during the event, which they see as a metaphor for stepping into one's calling and following God's voice. The conversation then turns to the original four people who brought A Course in Miracles into being. When they finished scribing the Course, they didn't know what to do with it. The four prayed together and heard the guidance to "commit first." They didn't have preconceived ideas of the outcome, which allowed them to receive unexpected guidance that led to a lifelong collaboration. David quotes a passage from the Course that suggests that every decision is for the whole sonship and can influence a larger constellation of events.Enjoy this Closing Session from the monthly Heart of Christ online retreat with the theme "Pray, Listen & Follow" - Three Steps That Will Take Care of Everything.

Trust that Jesus Will Carry Me - Pray, Listen & Follow Online Retreat - Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister

Trust that Jesus Will Carry Me - Pray, Listen & Follow Online Retreat - Movie Workshop with David HoffmeisterOh, What a beautiful Retreat Weekend. We are going deep into the topic of prayer. Let's call it our new lifestyle of PRAY, LISTEN, and FOLLOW. In the past, we were trying to be educated and learn about the world. Learn how to analyze, compare, and do things based on past learning so we can survive as a person and a body and, hopefully, grow old and eventually die.Work hard, grow old, get sick, and die. But, hmm. Maybe there's more than that. Maybe there's more. Perhaps, we had it all wrong. Maybe we were in a fantasy land trying to make the best of this world. You know, try to be a decent person and then try to make it into old age and then yeah, and then succumb to death like everyone else. Maybe we had it wrong. Maybe there's a higher calling for us than such trivial pursuits.

Opening Session - "Pray, Listen & Follow" - Online Weekend Retreat with David Hoffmeister and Frances Xu

3 Steps to Awakening: Pray, Listen & FollowIf you were at a movie theater and your attention went to the screen, you perceive everything personally through the dream character. You seem to see the things in the dream with the body's eyes and hear with the body's ears.When we learn to pray, the prayer of our heart is to come in touch with our desire for God and to start to activate the miracle in our mind. We're all being activated to be miracle workers, but the miracles come to our minds through our consciousness from the Holy Spirit and Jesus. Then they extend and radiate out into the world that we perceive. To the screen, but when we try to interpret, PRAY, LISTEN, and FOLLOW in terms of the dream character, we'll still find doubt. Critical thoughts, and belief in failure, because it's not like the dream character wakes up. The mind dreams the world, and the dream character needs to forgive and wake up. And so when we look at PRAY, LISTEN, and FOLLOW, we tend to interpret things through the personality self. And then we question, What is prayer? How do I pray? Is there a good way to pray besides just using prayers from the Bible, A Course in Miracles, or prayers from St. Francis?Enjoy David Hoffmeister and Frances Xu's opening session for this monthly Heart of Christ online retreat with the topic PRAY, LISTEN, and FOLLOW.You can watch the beginning of the session on YouTube.https://youtube.com/live/4srUvb9X46IIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded on March 3, 2023, Online at La 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

Jesus Can Do It Through You - Online Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister

Go from “I Can Do It” to “You Do It Through Me” - Online Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister.Jesus and all the mystics and saints of the last 2,000 years have had the same message. Empty your mind of everything you think you think and think you know. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus said, "Judge not, lest you be judged".If you hold a concept in your mind about your identity, then you will see the whole world through the filter of that concept. For example, if you have a concept of a body, you believe you're a body. You see everybody as bodies. You see animals as bodies, You might even say a tree has a tree body, or a cloud has a cloud body. It's everything.You see, anything that you can think of in time and space is part of the self-concept, and that means that what Jesus is teaching us with the Course is that as long as you look through the filter of the ego, you will see yourself and everyone, and everything in a very distorted way as if it's fragmented and separate. So the whole message of A Course in Miracles is, "Hallelujah, there's only one of us. There's always only been one of us.That one of us is a Christ ideal; forgive everything you've ever learned from history or everything you've ever believed, and accept ourselves as the living Christ. That is what reality is. We are an idea in the mind of God.Enjoy the profound commentary on "The Three Christs'' by David Hoffmeister.To learn more about the Weekly Movie Workshops, look here: https://bit.ly/ACIM-Movie-Workshop.You can watch the introduction to the movie workshop on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/AtGitNHlImALook for more info on David Hoffmeister and upcoming events: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.The movie workshop was recorded Saturday, February 25, 2023, Online.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

Realize I do not want to try to control this world anymore - Online Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister

Realize I no longer want to try to control this world - Online Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister.I think some of you realize deep down that you can't control the world, but you are still trying daily. You try with people around you or your cat or dog, and you try with the environment. You try to have an opinion, and of course, it doesn't matter what that attempt is. It doesn't go very well. We are never delighted when we're trying to control the world, even when we try to control the body. Maybe you try to control the weight of your body or the shape of your body, or the look and appearance of your body: parents and children, partners and lovers, other community members. Whenever we think we can control anybody, we are lined up with the ego and won't be happy because we weren't meant to be controllers. We are terrible controllers. We can see it's been a mess, if we are honest. We're never really in control of the situation. And when we finally realize that, we forgive it and feel so happy instantly.
