I read the book. Subtle and profound concepts. I am struggling with one idea. Maybe I'm not understanding it correctly. This idea that nothing is "bad" I find difficult to grasp. When you see a child being abused, is that not bad? If you witness a child being abused by an adult should you just accept "what is" and "allow" it to happen without intervening? Does anyone have an opinion about this?
@Ltwkr2 i know i feel the same way...there has to be exceptions or further explanations because somethings are unacceptable like your example of children been abused. It is kinda hard to understand some injustices, I don't know but they might have to come up with a book on the subject I feel it takes a lot of credibility in the book.
This book is awesome, its like the more gentle yet just as informative version of "the disappearance of the universe" Hope ur feeling better Tomas!!!!
Many very articulate comments, most of which do not understand the Course's (A Course in Miracles') explanation of the ego. Another useful book besides Take Me to Truth is Gary Renard's 'Disappearance of the Universe'.
Undoing ego is ego itself. We don't want to undo the ego, we want to master the ego. We don't want to be a slave to the ego and we don't want to be a slave to the mind. We want to master the mind and master the ego so that they serve us rather that being slaves to them. That is the true purpose. The mind and the ego are useful if they are working for us. Becoming the master requires being totally present in the moment and living a conscious life.
I am not about "worshiping" or anybody or anything. Life to me, is a miracle, and whatever explanation one comes up with for it's creation and/or purpose, it should be cherished, celebrated, and protected from people who just don't care. I am not a Christian but I have heard bible stories, and the idea that Jesus said "As I can do these things, so too can you" Sounds a litle like "self christs" doesn't it?
same demons same master = Satan ....different updated egoic lies yuppified to be SWALLOWED = NOW! Listen to YouTube video: Church Of Oprah #1.........(and if the "lie" of attraction actually worked then OPRAH & Rhonda B. SHOULD be out at Childrens Hospitals teaching this to desperate parents & children/patients! ........this is the lie that a goob in 1910 wrote about & Rhonda B. re-invented for a clueless godless group of goobs to CON people with. WAIT till she is facing DEATH="think it away"~)
what I have NOT given - unlike your lying egoic evil guru - is to tell people they are already their own fraud gods - That SHE blasphemes Actual Holy Triune GOD saying YOU "puppet" any thing that thinks its GOD. And that she is a using messages from EvilSpirits to get people to follow her to the gate of hell, Which will soon be her home. THIS=IS "what shes given to the world"~ ! Me= I just gave you THE TRUTH! I think that trumps MADE UP STUFF & lies about who GOD is & Scripture is TRUTH ANYTIME
It seems se brings on guests with different views, wtih the intention of educating and empowering people to live better lives. It seems that you are all about judging people, callin them evil, and telling people that they are going to hell. I hope that you can find the errors of your ways, and cease your ridiculous, and hateful ranting. You can do better by respecting the positive things that people like Oprah are doing, and moving yourself from a place of darkness, into a place of light.
..."guests" = fooled followers..........."intention" = turn them away from Actual Triune Holy God........"enpowering" = new age made up lie to make immoral sin filled people FEEL better about their ignoring Actual GIOD ......."hell" = real place with eternal agony..........."errors of my ways" = fraud gods and self christs miss-oracle about Actual TRUTH.........."Oprah" ..watch YouTube video: Church Of Oprah #3.....then go back and = YOUR CULT....and its egoic errors ........."light"=TRIUNE GOD!
How do explain that almost all ancient people up to today, have creation myths, stories similar to Adam and Eve as original progenitors, a belief regarding a returning savior and so on, yet you seem to claim a monopoly on the truth. Didn't your mother teach you to share? In all your rhetoric you never give credit to all the goodness and beauty in this world. Your excessive focus on afterlife is a dis-service to all of us striving to do better right here. Do something for a stranger today
...a completely egoic message of what to look for in the WORLD and UNIVERSE that Holy GOD = created! Nothing here could have ~boinged~ into your evolutionary ego driven explanations of the self christs "making it all up" of EARTH just happening along and we should "worship" = IT & OURSELVES? ...lol.........think about the perfection of this earth; only GOD created it because grass & TREES need = pollination and they SEEMED to all be here at the SAME TIME!....godless gurus take souls nothing else

if I were to look at what Oprah has given to the world, compared to what I might guess, You, have given. What would I see? Grow up!
