Happy Dream Retreat - David Hoffmeister & Craig Villarubia

Salvation is here and now, it happens in an instant. Forgiveness is to watch without judgement. Ambition of the world is to be worthy and productive. Be not content with future happiness. Any idol is for more of something, it does not matter what. The whole spiritual journey is letting go of the desire for more. Free will is perfect happiness. Economics professors may say, "no free lunches," but Jesus says otherwise. No private thoughts, no private minds, no private bodies, no private parts. Give the joy of eternity freely. Follow your inspiration and trust. Take no thought for the morrow. We need to be rinsed of our pride. Reverse amnesia is forgetting the world and remembering God. Set the goal first and the whole world is in support.This recording of David Hoffmeister and Craig Villarubia took place on Friday, February 10th, 2017 on day two of the Happy Dream Retreat in Los Angeles, California.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

Happy Dream Retreat - Opening Evening

There is just one dream. To go from nightmares to a happy dream, to a real world, to true perception we must go beyond words to an experience. It is so extremely simple but you will be challenged by the ego at every turn. All things work together for good. We must turn the key of forgiveness. Without the admission that we have a perceptual problem we cannot experience the happy dream.This recording of David Hoffmeister took place on Thursday, February 9th, 2017 on opening night of the Happy Dream Retreat in Los Angeles, California.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

"You Can't Take It With You" Movie Discussion

(http://mwge.org) David shares the 1938 movie "You Can't Take it With You" with Jimmy Stewart and Lionel Barrymore. Here is the Spirit-inspired movie review from our online Movie Watchers Guide to Enlightenment (mwge.org):This is a beautiful story demonstrating the ways of the Spirit in contrast to the ego thought of fear and separation. The Spirit, represented by Grandpa Martin Vanderhof, is steadfast and gently reminds that everything works to serve the greater good. In comparison the ego frets about its goals of status, money, power, and control, which is represented by A.P. Kirby, owner of Kirby & Company. Grandpa heads a fully spontaneous loving home where members follow their inspiration, find joy in collaboration and trust in Spirit to care for their needs. This home becomes a symbol of invitation to join with Spirit as a worker at Kirby & Co., Mr. Poppins leaves his unfulfilling old job to move in with the Vanderhofs and follow his heart. Tony Kirby Jr., A.P. Kirby's son and Vice President of Kirby & Company, falls in love and wants to marry his stenographer, Alice Sycamore, who is Vanderhof's granddaughter. This union appears to be directly against the will and interests of Tony's parents. As these two families (different thought systems) come together, what follows seems to be what the ego might interpret as "chaos" yet it reveals that the ego is no match for love and spontaneity. Grandpa Vanderhof beautifully demonstrates, "In my defenselessness my safety lies." (W-153.1) The wisdom and power of Spirit shines through the ego's thoughts to reveal a deep desire for union in truth and love. This movie is a helpful tool for learning to discern the Voice for God that leads to the Kingdom of Heaven within.---This talk from David was recorded December 27, 2016 at the Living Miracles Metaphysical Center in Kamas, Utah.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

"Love Actually" Movie Talk on Christmas Eve

http://mwge.org/ Love is our very nature and our life. It is all around. At this time of year, the Christmas Spirit encourages all of us to allow the love to take over and guide us in all ways; to express it freely without fear of consequence. In the classic Christmas movie “Love Actually”, we see in many characters how the fear of expressing love eventually gives way to the experience of it. This recording includes a short pre-movie setup by David Hoffmeister followed by an after-movie with all of us at the Living Miracles Metaphysical Center in Kamas, Utah. Listen to the first two minutes of this audio (the pre-movie talk), then watch the movie—it can be rented on Amazon.com. After seeing the movie, continue listening to this audio and sink into the experience of Love Actually! Recorded December 24, 2016 at the Living Miracles Metaphysical Center in Kamas, Utah.For more Spirit-inspired movie reviews, visit the Movie Watchers Guide to Enlightenment at http://mwge.org/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 Spirit of Christmas: You Can't Be No Ghost

http://mwge.org In the movie, "The Spirit of Christmas" (2014), Daniel believes he is stuck in time, living out a curse that he doesn't understand. He finally realizes "I did this, you didn't do it to me." Freedom comes when grievances of the past are laid aside. What was once hidden disappears when the secret is brought to Light. A love story of 95 years comes ALIVE in a free choice for forgiveness. The script is written, and Heaven takes the form of a free choice. Love, Innocence, and Happiness are inevitable.Recorded December 20, 2016 at the Living Miracles Metaphysical Center in Kamas, Utah.
