A Course in Miracles as an Accelerated Path to Healing



Enjoy this excerpt from the renowned A Course in Miracles teacher, David Hoffmeister. David is known for his uncompromising, yet gentle and humorous dialogue, that can lead to accelerated healing.

As a young person, I never had a thought of being a miracle worker and I would say most people that get into A Course in Miracles when asked as a child, what do you want to be when you grow up? Do not say,  Oh I want to be a miracle worker!  I do not think I have met one A Course in Miracles student yet who knew this as a young child.  It is very, very rare. Yet when we open up to it and we open up to being used by the Holy Spirit, then we open ourselves more and more to being available to be used by Him. Then it is like a quickening that occurs. You get more into an accelerated path of the healing.  And open to accepting that healing that has already happened.
When we make no exceptions and work consistently with A Course in Miracles, then we begin to see the miracle is always available for us.  We learn to choose the miracle consistently  and then our perception lightens up, really lightens up and gets very bright and then finally disappears. And you get to see how deep this goes. But we have to get all the way back to releasing everything about linear time and all aspects of linear time to awaken from the dream. So it is not about a personal healing or even about our personal life going smoothly.  
There is even a part in the Teachers manual in A Course in Miracles where Jesus talks about three levels of teaching and the third one is a lifelong teaching/learning partnership. He says "they may be hostile to each other perhaps for life," which guns down any sense of soul mate thing. Oh that is great I have a lifelong learning partner that is going to help me forgive the ego and they may be hostile, perhaps for life.  Oh thank you very much Jesus, that is very enticing.  I can't wait to get into my lifelong hostile teaching/learning relationship. What it is though is the ego is deep and if he is giving a metaphor of a lifelong partnership, he says and should they decide to learn, it is the perfect lesson for them and can be learned. It is very optimistic and hopeful but he is not trying to paint it like the soulmate sites do. He is saying this could be intense and perhaps for life and that is how deep the ego runs.  And I think certainly Bill and Helen, the scribe and the collaborator of A Course in Miracles; nobody could say  that they had an easy ride of it.  It was very very disjunctive. Particularly for Helen but I think for Bill too.

A Course in Miracles Teacher Talks About God, The Bible, Ego, ACIM and Advaita Vedanta

David Hoffmeister— A Course in Miracles Teacher: The Bible told us, "Hold  no graven images before the Lord, thy God." It wasn't talking about totem  poles or golden calves, like we thought. It was actually talking about anything  in time and space that you hold more valuable than God or your true Self.  Anything that you hold more valuable than God or our true Self will block you  from the awareness of love.  Spirit is not a religion or a theology. Spirit and love is a state of mind. You  can't know that presence as long as you value anything else besides that  presence. That's why with all the commandments; the two that Jesus emphasized  was, "Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and soul and mind."  And, "Love thy neighbor as thy self." Not as a separate entity or a  separate being. So, when the song we listened to earlier said, "You literally are your brother. You literally are your sister," it's pointing  to all ...

A Course in Miracles and Awakening by David Hoffmeister

Enjoy the following excerpt from a transcribed talk given by  A Course in Miracles  teacher David Hoffmeister. Like the Horatio Alger stories, "Pull yourself up from your disadvantaged past and make something of yourself." That was even an army slogan as I was growing up, "Be all that you can be." Oh great. I think I have better aspirations than going around gunning down people in other countries, but still it was the whole thing. It was no different than trying to improve your life, improve your circumstances, and all the work and all the energy that goes into striving to have a better life. All of it's for naught because still you are dreaming a dream and if you actually begin to grasp this, you will soon get over self-improvement. You will soon get over trying to make the world a better place and all the work; just think of the social services, end world hunger, what do you mean? Who invented world hunger? That's part of a dream. There's nuc...

Canada Goose Jeckets

The final portion of this accidental marketing success of Canada Goose has, up until quite recently become the scarcity of the goods. For a long time, if a shop ran out of a particular size or style of jacket, it might take quite some time for a replacement order to be filled.

There is also an extensive assortment of Canada Goose women's coats and coats, including women's parka coats that have a sleek A-line design, fur lined hood along with a suede lining, and there are some very smart looking women's gilets in the scope also.
