A Course in Miracles (ACIM) Podcast

Living Miracles Weekly Online Movie Gathering commentary by David Hoffmeister to the movie "LUCY"Who you are is from before time was. Time is a concept made to measure and therefore “give reality” to man’s existence within an illusion. Matter is held together by thought and the belief in (and the need for) a bodily identity. The mind cannot die. The mind is eternal and is beyond the realm of time and space. When awareness of self has expanded beyond a limited bodily identity, time and space are literally in the hands of the miracle-worker.When the mind is totally focused in the present, and aware of Self, mind wandering ceases. When you know who you are, nothing of this world is wanted or desired, and therefore there is nothing to fear. Nothing can be lost when who you are is everything. This is a complete fearlessness.In the flow of the Spirit’s purpose, everything is simple and absolutely focused. Convincing and explaining are unnecessary to those joined in purpose because the direction is clear and obvious. It is felt. It is not personal; it just is.In the end, LUCY just is and so are we after listening to Davids commentary.The movie gathering was recorded Wednesday, July 1, 2020, in Casa Quantico, Ajijic, MexicoJoin the Living Miracles community for weekly online movie gatherings with commentary!

Living Miracles Weekly Online Movie Gathering with commentary by David Hoffmeister"It Could Happen to You" got chosen for this week's online movie gathering and Davids commentary circled around 'Giving and Getting'.Giving is from the Holy Spirit, getting is from the ego. Giving leads to love, getting leads to isolation and unhappiness. So simple can this movie's commentary be summarized. Love prevails over fear, deception, and greed, for the light shines bright in a heart made ready by giving. And when we give the love in our hearts, the whole world is in love. Gentleness, kindness, respect, and honor follow the pure of heart. It could happen to you!The movie gathering was recorded Wednesday, August 12, 2020, in Casa Quantico, Ajijic, MexicoJoin the Living Miracles community for weekly online movie gatherings with commentary!

Beyond the Body online weekend retreat - Closing Session with David Hoffmeister and Frances XuDavid and Frances close the Beyond the Body Online Retreat by answer questions from the participants. But first David reads a little piece from A Course in Miracles (Chapter 29 – IX. The Forgiving Dream):"You do but dream, and idols are the toys you dream you play with. 5 Who has need of toys but children? 6 They pretend they rule the world, and give their toys the power to move about, and talk and think and feel and speak for them. 7 Yet everything their toys appear to do is in the minds of those who play with them. 8 But they are eager to forget that they made up the dream in which their toys are real, nor recognize their wishes are their own."This "Beyond the Body" online weekend retreat session with David Hoffmeister and Frances Xu was recorded on the morning of August 9, 2020, at the Quantico studio in Ajijic, Mexico.To learn more about upcoming live Awakening from the Dream online retreats with David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles community, go to https://livingmiracles.org/events

Beyond the Body online weekend retreat - 2nd movie session with David HoffmeisterThe journey back to the dream we dream in secret and the waking up from that dream is done through forgiveness. David reads this part of ACIM about forgiveness and asks us to have this in mind throughout the session: What Is Forgiveness?Forgiveness recognizes what you thought your brother did to you has not occurred. It does not pardon sins and make them real. It sees there was no sin. And in that view are all your sins forgiven. What is sin, except a false idea about God’s Son? Forgiveness merely sees its falsity and therefore lets it go. What then is free to take its place is now the Will of God.This "Beyond the Body" online weekend retreat session with David Hoffmeister was recorded in the afternoon of August 8, 2020, at the Quantico studio in Ajijic, Mexico.To learn more about upcoming live Awakening from the Dream online retreats with David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles community, go to https://livingmiracles.org/events

Beyond the Body online weekend retreat - extended movie session with David HoffmeisterDavid Hoffmeister's Saturday morning session starts us up on a journey right back to the hidden dream we dream in secret. He is using two retreat sessions on that journey and the movie Mr. Nobody. This is the first session that covers the first 1:30 hour of the movie and in this session, David manages to set us up with a context so awesome that we can understand how close to reality this movie really is even though everything is taking place in the mind of a nine years old boy presented with an impossible choice between his two parents. Let yourself be drawn into this masterpiece of a commentary for Mr. Nobody and listen to the next session as well and you will not be the same human being anymore.This "Beyond the Body" online weekend retreat session with David Hoffmeister was recorded on the morning of August 8, 2020, at the Quantico studio in Ajijic, Mexico.To learn more about upcoming live Awakening from the Dream online retreats with David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles community, go to https://livingmiracles.org/events

Living Miracles Weekly Online Movie Gathering with commentary by David HoffmeisterFear of Loss, Doubt I’ll be Taken Care of, and Past/Future Thoughts were the topics behind the pick of the movie "2:22" that got chosen for this week's online movie gathering.The movie "2:22" is a powerful forgiveness movie that helps loosen the mind from fixed ideas about linear time and to awaken to the present moment. Some of the questions posed by this movie include: Are you brave enough to let go of everything you thought to be true and look for a different perspective that will lead you to the truth? Are you ready to surrender to the unknown?Holy encounters are the Spirit’s substitute for the desires of this world. They provide a contrast experience that allows the mind to reach higher and higher to what it really wants. The Spirit wants to take us all into that divine dance and will use relationships to help bring about the mirroring that is needed to clear the unconscious and to reach that state of pure connectedness and harmony.The movie gathering was recorded Wednesday, August 5, 2020, in Casa Quantico, Ajijic, MexicoJoin the Living Miracles community for weekly online movie gatherings with commentary!

David Norris keeps running into his mighty companion, Elise. This fills the void that he tried to fill with the race for senator.
