    Thanksgiving for Community - Davids Commentary on the Movie 'Hypnotic'

    Thanksgiving for Community - Davids Commentary on the Movie 'Hypnotic'
    Thanksgiving for Community - David's Commentary on the Movie 'Hypnotic'

    The movie explores the mind's role in creating a vast and external world, primarily as a defense mechanism. The ego, acting as the sleeping mind, creates a world with a brain associated with the mind. Jesus explains that these neuro-electrical impulses are not thoughts and that the mind is much more potent than this make-believe brain.

    The ultimate goal of spiritual awakening is to remember the power of the mind, as Jesus teaches us, that we are the dreamers of the world of dreams. This awareness of dreaming is the key to spiritual awakening, as it allows individuals to see there is no causation in the world and that they are just watching something that's over and done. The movie emphasizes the importance of recognizing the power of the divine mind and love, as nothing real can be threatened or unreal exists.

    Why Is Commitment Important on the Spiritual Journey?

    Why Is Commitment Important on the Spiritual Journey?
    The ego is not committed to anything at all. It is like a wild child. Yet the goal of A Course in Miracles is Atonement which is a total commitment. So how do we move from being so wild and rebellious in our minds to accepting the goal of Atonement? The Holy Spirit and Jesus will give us many opportunities to develop commitment via temporary assignments in this world such as marriage, jobs, and various projects. They will all be let go of in the end but when used by the Spirit can be very helpful stepping stones to Awakening.

    Exposing the Clever One Straight Up

    Exposing the Clever One Straight Up
    “Everything in this cosmos is part of a distractive device to keep you from remembering who you are. And whatever made this mesmerism, this hallucination, is pretty clever. This cleverness goes way beyond personal. This is the kind of cleverness that made up a whole world of unreality and convinced the mind that it is something else than what it is. It convinced the mind that it is limited instead of infinite and it is flesh instead of Spirit. Once you get a glimpse of that, then comes the listen-and-follow part because the same presence that created you as Spirit will guide you to unwind your mind from this ‘clever’ idea. It will take you back to the Source.”

    It's All About Identity

    It's All About Identity
    As long as we are deceived about our identity, we are in an extremely confused state. So confused that as Jesus says in ACIM, "you cannot judge your advances from your retreats."
    As we allow our minds to be trained and become uncompromising in our desire for truth, we can start to have fun with this hypothetical world.

    Am I Rescuing or Being Truly Helpful?

    Am I Rescuing or Being Truly Helpful?
    Often in this world we find ourselves wanting to be helpful and then finding ourselves conflicted and wondering, "How did this happen? How did I get in so much conflict? I was trying to help."
    This talk explores the difference between false empathy and true empathy. When we first start taking a stance for truth and say, "No", to the false, often we are accused and judged by the world. Yet on this journey as we join with the Holy Spirit we are asked to say, "No", to many things. The more we do this, the more we experience that the fears in our mind simply melt away.

    Recorded September 8, 2015 at the Living Miracles Monastery in Duchesne, Utah.

    This World Is a Distraction from Heaven

    This World Is a Distraction from Heaven
    This world is a world of distraction. It was made to keep you mindless. As you start to pull away from these distractions it will seem that your life gets more tumultuous as you are turned upside down.
    The top tier of your self concept or 'Face of Innocence', was made to prevent you from looking upon a self that you believe is 'draped with sin'.
    As we join with our mighty companions and have the willingness and courage to look at this dark and hidden self, we approach what is underneath and what we are in truth; pure blazing light!

    Trust in the Unwinding of the Illusion

    Trust in the Unwinding of the Illusion
    with Spanish translation.
    David talks about the desire to go home and the journey to enlightenment. He tells us that just when we get comfortable in the world the floor will fall out and we will feel like we're falling. He encourages us not to be discouraged. It's just a transition into something that's very stable and very strong. We have to learn to trust in the falling and know that it is for our good.

    The Comforter

    The Comforter
    with Spanish translation.
    Gain a new perspective of our fear of love and the roll of the Comforter. Join David as he takes us deeper into how our fear of love and intimacy is really the fear of the power of our mind; that somehow we actually had the power to miscreate and turn away from God's Love. But God answered this strange belief instantaneously with The Comforter (Holy Spirit).

    Grasping True Empathy

    Grasping True Empathy
    w/ Spanish translation
    One participant expresses that she feels she like she's betraying her brother by her inclusive forgiveness and fears that her light would be offensive to him.
    David expounds upon the meaning of true empathy as he quotes Jesus from ACIM, "One of the most difficult ideas to grasp is true empathy." If any mistreatment in any degree could be possible for one person then that would mean there is no God. It runs that deep. Because again, God is Source and God is Perfect.

    The End of All Compromises

    The End of All Compromises
    David's Talk with Spanish translation.
    David addresses a participant's frustrations over being expected to compromise (the Truth) as David explains that this journey is coming to the end of all compromise. Whenever we believe we can make up our identity (taking on the human identity) we have started compromising.
    So, when you answer the call to go home, you're saying in your heart, "I will not compromise with the Light." There is no compromise with God. You either believe the Truth or not at all.

    Unwinding in Community

    Unwinding in Community
    David's talk with Spanish translation.
    When you open your heart up & you allow your emotions to come up, sometimes you will have very dark emotions surface.
    This is really the goal of community living.
    Community is not necessarily a place to learn only metaphysics; this is a place to go through the process of transformation. It is a place where you feel safe enough, you trust enough, to allow any emotions to come into awareness.

    Feeling God's Presence

    Feeling God's Presence
    David explores the concept of lack as he addresses one participant's feelings of loneliness. How does one feel God's Presence? Once again he artfully traces everything back to faulty , upside-down thinking and provides clarity in the solution. Feeling lonely is a prompt or a prayer for opportunities to give, to extend God's Love. "The deeper you go...you're opening to a stillness, a purification of mind where you want to have nothing but God on your alter."
