3 Steps to Awakening: Pray, Listen & Follow If 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 miracl...

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...

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. W...

Knowing the Path is Already Laid Out for You - Online Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister "The Truman Show" is a film that explores several themes; it questions the nature of reality and the role of fate in our lives.

David discusses the upcoming movie "The Truman Show" in teaching the metaphysics for spiritual Awakening through forgiveness as taught by Jesus in A Course In Miracles. Join in watching the movie this weekend. From Jesus: No one wants madness, nor does anyone cling to his madness if he sees that this is what it is. ²What protects madness is the belief that it is true. ³It is the function of insani...

Closing Session "Purpose is Everything" Online Retreat with David Hoffmeister and Frances Xu The underlying purpose of the world is still unchanged. It is still saying that something is lacking here and that the world can provide it for me. So let me get get get get and see what I couldn't get to fulfill this lag inside. So we're trying to manipulate relationships, manipulate every situation to ge...

Forgiveness: Uncovering Lessons in Every Situation - Online Retreat Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister Like with computers, while you believe in duality, everything is part of a binary system, zeros, and ones. We're finding that the world isn't that complicated now. In linear time, we're saying no to God, and by saying yes to God, we accept the holy instant in perfect innocence. A simple yes or...

Opening Session - Purpose is Everything - The Heart of Christ Online Retreat with David Hoffmeister and Frances Xu Jesus says in A Course in Miracles, You have been called, together with your brother, to the holiest function this world contains. It is the only one with no limits and reaches out to every broken fragment of the Sonship with healing and uniting comfort. At the beginning of this journ...

How to Find the Holy Spirit’s Prompts in Your Mind - Online Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister Even when you contact the Holy Spirit, you start to live a much more intuitive life and much less of an analytical life. However, when you focus more on the present moment and less on the past, you will still find that you must become very conscious of where you reject or ignore the Spirit's prompts....

Strengthen My Inner Connection with the Spirit - Online Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister Pretty early on in the beginning of the second chapter of A Course in Miracles, Jesus offers a prayer; 'I am here only to be truly helpful. I'm here to represent Him who sent Me. I do not have to worry about what to say or what to do, he who sent me will direct me, and I'm content to be wherever he wishes...

Accept the Gentle Unfolding of God's Plan - Online Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister Accept the gentle unfolding of God's plan. For most of us, when we're going through trials, challenges, and tribulations, we doubt there is a plan. We seriously doubt it. We think this is madness. The world is madness. My life is madness, and there's no way out. It seems like we're stuck in hell. And so when w...

Closing Session - The Light Has Come Online Retreat with David Hoffmeister and Frances Xu The Kingdom of Heaven is a spiritual Kingdom, and the Kingdom of Heaven is a state of mind. It's a beatitude. It's a presence of mind that is entirely independent of the body. And so when you ask if healing involves bodily activity. I would say it consists of the purpose or the use of the body, but not the bo...

Movie Workshop - The Light Has Come Online Retreat with David Hoffmeister The theme of The Light Has Come is profound because it teaches us who we are. It's the answer to everything as being a divine creation of God. It's the spirit. It's the Christ idea, the pure Christ idea, and that Christ idea is pure light. And so when we say the light has come, it means that right now, that light is fully av...

Opening Session - 'The Light Has Come' Online Retreat with David Hoffmeister and Frances Xu When we say the light has come, what we're doing today is opening to an actual state of mind already there. Or we could say it already here. It's not a future thing. The temptation is to believe that things would improve if the circumstances of my worldly life changed. It could be my body or my relationship...

Stay Focused on My Spirit-Given Function - Online Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister God didn't create anything in time and space. God didn't create time. God didn't create space. God didn't create gravity. God didn't create motion, black holes, stars, and gasses. God didn't even create what we would call light that travels through time and space at lightspeed. He didn't create anything changin...

Have No Fear of Consequences - Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister Isn't that a great way to live? Live every moment of your life without any fear of consequences? Who wants to fear a bunch of hypothetical consequences that don't exist? Why would we live our life based on fear when we have everything we need and want? When we say, God, I want to live in happiness. I want to live in joy. I want t...

Coming into true honesty - Being aligned with the source in what I think, say, and do. We want to live an honest life and feel we're lined up with our source because our source is love, happiness, joy, and peace. That's really in our hearts. That's what we're praying for. We want to have a happy, joyful life. And to stay aligned with the source, we must accept ourselves as God created us. The ego...

Rising into Light with David Hoffmeister, Frances Xu and Lisa Fair live at La Casa de Milagros - Christian Mysticism Do you choose to join the crucifixion, or do you decide to join the resurrection? It's a question that Jesus poses directly to us today. Which one do you choose to join? The next question is, do you decide to stay imprisoned? Or do you prefer to ascend to your father like rising to...

Always Remember What The Purpose Is - Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister The ego tries to use all differences to convince your mind, which is asleep, that it's different from all the other minds. The ego always emphasizes differences and the Holy Spirit always says, No, you're the perfect Christ. You're the perfect child of God. You always have been, and you always will be. You're created as pe...

Closing Session - Reborn in the Light of Christ - A Tabula Rasa Weekend Online Retreat with David Hoffmeister and Frances Xu You can't bring the truth into the illusion. We've all read many self-help books, and most of us probably have a whole library of self-help books, but actually, the Course is not about self-help. It's saying, the self that God created doesn't need any help. There's a little...

Trust That All Is Taken Care Of - Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister - Movie 'Man of God' Trust that all is taken care of - no more need to plan and scheme. Your need for learning ends when you realize that all is taken care of because what we have learned from the ego has been fear. It's tricked us into believing that we're frail and weak and that we are at the mercy of time and space and all...
