 Okay, hi everybody. Nice to see you all. Good morning. Welcome to our all-day movie workshop. I'm Peter. Yeah, we've got a fun movie coming up today. And yeah, for those who are new, I always like to just give you a little idea of what's going to happen in the day. So we'll start with David and the movie, and then we have a 10-minute break afterwards. Then we have breakout rooms where you can share any emotions or anything that came up during the movie. And then we'll have a 45-minute break, and then we'll have a Q&A session with me. So I'll pass it over to you now, David. Thank you. Thank you, Pete. Welcome everyone. Glad you can join me and join all together for a very profound awakening experience. And it was beautiful because every week I look at the themes and I just pray and pray. And sometimes I have one or two or three movies that come to mind. And yeah, that's what happened this week. I had two or three movies in mind, and I was praying to Jesus. I said, which one? Which one am I going to show here? They're all really good for these themes. And he said, well, you know, this is the first week of the National Football League, the NFL. And you know the teams are playing. And I said, yeah, that's right. I did see that. And he told me the Seahawks are playing the Broncos. The Seattle Seahawks are playing the Denver Broncos. And I was like, okay, I know which movie you want. Because in this movie, that's a premonition of this very key in the movie that the Seahawks are playing the Broncos. And so it made it obvious that this was the movie from the teams that are playing this weekend. And they're in the movie as well playing. So I'm just grateful that you can all be here with me. And this week, in terms of themes, all of the themes were very, very high. And I think when I read through this list of themes, the ones you voted on, you all resonate with each one of them. I think some of you might have voted for all five of them because they're all very intuitive and they're all very high. And Jesus is like, good, good, good. These are really good themes. And this movie that we're going to show today deals with the topic of death. And so what Jesus is saying is you have to be able to face the belief in death. You have to be able to expose it in your mind. You have to be able to face it. And you finally you have to be able to release it. That's the he says that's the last illusion to be overcome his death. His earth life was quite an example of that because of the crucifixion and the resurrection. Also, just recently, Queen Elizabeth passed away. So that's been all over the news. The passing of Queen Elizabeth at 96 years old. So we're going to look at some very high topics today, very high themes. And also we're going to be reminded from Jesus that you have to be able to face the belief in death in your mind. Because that's what the ego is. It's a death wish. And as long as it's unconscious, then you believe in what you perceive with the five senses. Once you raise this death wish into awareness and you think, I don't want to believe in any of this, any part of this death wish, I want to know eternal life. That's when you begin to feel that the strong draw of the light, and you start to automatically let go of everything else that you once believed before. That's how spiritual awakening occurs. You bring the darkness to the light, you bring the death wish to the light of heaven in your mind. Jesus and the Holy Spirit, and then it disappears. So, here are those beautiful five themes that you voted on this week, and they're all really super high. Just one, fully accepting what is right in front of me. Wow, if you can just do that fully accepting what is right in front of me, then you can have a pretty relaxing, joyful life because acceptance is the key. In the end, Jesus says you have to accept the atonement. And what he means by that is the correction for this entire world of time and space is in the present moment. So when the theme comes out is fully accepting what is right in front of me. What is right in front of me the present moment. It's under your nose. You may go like this a lot, but the present moment is, it's so close, it's under your nose. It's above your lips, it's front and center. And the present moment, all the spiritual traditions have said, think into the present moment and know that you are loved and know that you are free. And so that's what this first theme is about. The second theme is it's time to shine. It's time to shine. No, no time for regrets. No time for sadness. No time for sorrow. It's time to shine. It's time to let your light shine for all the world to behold. It's time to be happy. It's time to be joyful. It's time to release the struggles, release the compromise, release the wishy washy back and forth, you know, no, no. Christ is not wishy washy. Christ is the light of heaven. And, and Jesus is really telling us it's time to shine. Third theme is staying in tune with the purpose. The purpose in our mind that the Holy Spirit sponsors is forgiveness. So forgiveness is simply seeing the false is false. So it's great to know you don't have to accomplish something in form. You don't have to figure out something in form. You don't have to even achieve something in form. You don't have to judge your progress by anything in form. You simply have to join with the light in your mind and simply see the false is false. And this does mean that you start to see there's no hierarchy of illusions. So if you believe that there's better illusions and worse illusions. Jesus is just smiling and, and gently laughing saying, well, they're actually all the same. There's no hierarchy of illusions. And that's why there's, there's no order of difficulty in miracles. The first principle in a course in miracles because they're all equally the same. That's why Jesus could look upon the world with the Holy Spirit and just see the sameness of everything. And then his exit seemed to be kind of dramatic, you know, with a crucifixion or resurrection, and I am with you always even until the end of time and then poof, he's gone. But we have modern day movies that really show us the modern day version of that and that's for example the Truman show where Truman takes a bow, you finally get to take a bow in the end, take a bow. In case you're on stage with Shakespeare, take a bow. In case I don't see you. Good afternoon. Good evening and good night. You just simply escape the world by not valuing the ego. Everything the ego sponsored to try to make you feel good in a projected world of time and space was all part of a lie. The ego is kind of ingenious at inventing substitutes for love, but at some point you start to realize, wait a minute, none of these substitutes for loves are working. I tried it. You try them out and they don't work. Well, why isn't this working? Well, try this one. Why not this? And then you start to realize, oh, I need to surrender. I need a new way of looking at the world. I actually need to forgive this world. Jesus says God does not forgive for he has never condemned and there must be condemnation first before forgiveness is necessary. So, so God is so loving that God is beyond even the concept of forgiveness. And this is the last illusion and it's for the sleeping mind. God doesn't need to forgive because God has never condemned. So God, in one sense, God is just pure love God doesn't even know of forgiveness but the Holy Spirit is brought us this concept to free our sleeping mind to wake up to the eternal nature of God. That's to the heralds of eternity of eternity, which is our next theme for our next online movie or online retreat. So, the next one is feeling the ease of following the spirit. When I talk to people, most people just say, you know, I just, I just want the heartache and the struggle and the challenge to disappear. I want to feel the ease. I want to, of course, I'll be joyful if my, if I feel a sense of ease. If everything feels easy to me, I can see why I would be happy if, if absolutely everything was easy, I would be happy. They say, well, yeah, that's it. So the theme is feeling the ease of following the spirit ease comes from following the Holy Spirit. The more intuitive you become, the easier everything gets because all you have to do is listen and follow. It can't be difficult to listen and follow. When your mind is the follower, you don't even have to come up with the instructions. All you have to do is listen to the instructions and follow the instructions. And I have to say that over the last like 3035 36 years of my life. Since I started the course 36 years, that it's been intuitive listening and my willingness to follow the guidance that that has made all the difference. And the course is just words, and the words and the thought system and the workbook lessons are just designed for one thing, and that's to put you in touch with your internal teacher. And once you make direct contact with your internal teacher consistently, I mean really consistently then you, you can throw the book away. The book becomes a prop. Just like this juice is a prop, or this, this mouse is a prop. Of course a miracles book eventually becomes a prop for you. It's just another prop on the stage, because your internal listening has taken over. You've got you your internal GPS system, guiding you home. You don't even need the book you don't need anything of time and space those are just props on the stage of the world. So that's why it's so important to tune into the Holy Spirit because once you make contact with your internal internal teacher, essentially it is over for the ego, and you realize that it doesn't matter what's even happening on the screen you realize this is it this is this is the thing that the course was pointing me towards just making contact with the internal teacher and then following what the internal teacher tells me to do guides me to do every day. And then you don't even, you're not even concerned with what's going to happen in the day because you know it's all kind of in in the control of the internal teacher the GPS system has got it. You can mess it up you can't make a wrong turn. If you make a wrong turn the internal GPS just says make a legal you turn at the next possible opportunity. See, it doesn't even squawk and say, oh you dummy, you missed the you missed the turn it just says, make a U turn at the next possibility you see how kind that is. That's the best way the Holy Spirit is the Holy Spirit always recalibrates you know you really seem to you get into an egoic fit and then the Holy Spirit simply recalibrates, and then says, it gives you the next direction. It doesn't criticize you it just gives you the next direction and that's the way the internal teacher is the the internal teacher knows that mistakes and errors have already been corrected. The Holy Spirit will never condemn will never criticize will never will never belittle you because the Holy Spirit knows that who you truly are is the Christ the Holy Christ, and that is always glorious. There is no mistake in the Christ. And the last theme for this week is staying in true empathy. Let doubt thoughts go. Wow, rounding out an amazing top five let doubt thoughts go. Wouldn't it be great if every time you started to doubt anything or anyone or even doubt yourself that you just automatically stopped and paused and and allowed a smile to wash over you. And then you just thought, I don't need that thought that thought is not helpful to me. I'm just going to let it go. Like I'm going to kiss it goodbye. Bye bye. Bye bye doubt thought you came okay you came you're in my living room and there's the back door out. You go with just keep walking in the front door and out the back door. And that's how you keep your house clean. You keep your mind clean by escorting the doubt thoughts out out the back door there you go okay very good. Enjoy the backyard. You're not staying in my living room. I'm living in my living room. I'm living in my, my happy bright mind you can just go out the door and be on your way. So this movie we have today. It, it's called life or something like it. And it's from 2002. And it stars. Angelina Jolie. And, and basically this is a is a movie that shows us what we've been really learning in our recent movies we just finished the, the Turkish series. Basically, and we in that series and other self we learned that even though the past is over and gone. As long as we hold remnants of the past in our unconscious mind, they will play out on the screen. So even though Jesus is telling us this world was over long ago, the past is gone it can touch you not. He does tell us Jesus says the one thing you can truly believe about the past is that it is not here. The one thing you can believe about it is, it's not here is gone. But that's what the, the seeming situation of separation is about is believing that the past is not over, believing that the guilt is not over, believing that the separation is real, that it's actually really possible to separate from God from the source. And then the ego just keeps projecting a world in which the past still seems to play out. And we still feel bad because we believe it's still here. And Jesus again is telling us the one thing you can believe about the past that's holy true is that it's not here, it is gone. And we've had in many different ways in the course. So, we learned that from our another self series and this movie is is carrying on that theme, because Angelina Jolie is going to play a character named Laney. And we let we get little glimpses of Laney's past. A little photo shot of when she was a little girl. We see her as, as a, we'll say a young teenager with big thick black glasses, and she has a sister who's very popular who's a cheerleader who gets to date all the football players and, and she's extremely popular and, and Laney as a teenager is not she's very shy, and she's very self conscious. And her sister seems to get all the attention from her father. Laney has a good connection when she's younger with her mother but her mother passes away and dies and Laney had a really good connection with her mother but with her father, her father's not. He's more of a workaholic he works a night shift he works so many hours every week that he never was really good at communicating with Laney and so we see her self concept. And what that movie emerges is, it's one of loneliness it's one of sadness and depression. It's one of comparison and judgment that she's not getting as much attention as her sister. We can see that past. And then we can see the modern day Laney, which of course Angelina Jolie is very capable of playing the modern, the adult version, very sexy career. She has goals she has ambitions. She's, she's very beautiful. And she has a fiance, who is a star for the Seattle Mariners baseball team, named cow. And this is very common, where, if you have unworthiness in your childhood, in terms of your childhood on earth. Oftentimes the ego will say, you need to, you need to compensate for everything that you're not, and become something so good that you will overcome the unworthiness with maybe a great career being beautiful having a beautiful body. Having a very famous partner fiance like cow and living the high life, you know, being popular being known. So she becomes from a very shy teenager she becomes a TV personality, and she is basically a television personality on a on a show in Seattle. So she becomes known to the certainly to Seattle she has ambitions to become a national television personality. She also is is very caught up in how she looks. She's very much controlling of the people places things in her world to have control over her life which she feels she didn't have when she was younger. And she goes for everything that the ego tells you that you can overcome your unworthiness in this world, if you have money. If you have fame. If you have physical beauty. And if you are have will say friends in the sense of people that admire you and like you all those things are are seen as important in the world but they're all ego projections. Doesn't mean anything to a mind that knows his divine, because you can't be either famous or infamous, you can't, you can't have a bad mind or a good mind when your, your divine mind is really all that there is, it's the light. Money money is just a symbol that the spirit can use, but to the ego money is extremely important because it's exchangeable for things of the world that can bring you fame and possessions and control seeming control and and seem to bring you all the goodies that the ego has to have. That's why money is so important. And when money becomes evaluated as important to the ego obviously then that's where the career comes in. For most people, they are not just inheriting millions and millions of dollars, unless your, your name is Prince Harry or Prince William. And, and your grandmother happens to be the wealthiest woman in the world just died do you know that she's not she died at 96 and the wealthiest woman in the world just died. And to the ego that's a big thing to be the wealthiest woman in the world it's like very good wealthiest woman in the world, check that one off. A queen, a queen no less wow a queen wealthiest woman in the world and a huge family that she leaves behind and huge tradition and everything and the ego is soaking up the media attention. These last couple of days, because, because the ego says that the way you overcome this deep sense of unworthiness of believing that you're, you're not worthy is by making a self concept that will be so full of crowns and jewels so full of fame and so full of money and power that you'll forget all your unworthiness. The only thing that's wrong with that is, when you go through all that you still seem to suffer, you still seem to struggle and get jealous and, and feel bad and in the end you still seem to die. Actually the self concept fails miserably at undoing unworthiness. And then you look at the mystics and saints who basically like Romana Maharshi as he went on in his life you know he, he didn't seem to own anything. He just kind of was in deep stillness and and people came from all over the world to just sit in the same room. And he didn't have a legacy. His mother did come there to spend some time with him after he became enlightened so to speak because she was not happy when he left at 19. He was an abandoning son but eventually she started to think he's really happy. I think I'm going to go spend some time so he bought her a couch. And, and his mother came and spent some time with Romana Maharshi. But the key thing in this movie is, we're going to see the topic of death, introduced in this movie. It's going to be introduced by a man on the streets of Seattle, called Prophet Jack, and Prophet Jack just he stands on his little wood pedestal opens up the drawer so people can make love offerings and donations if they want and then he forecast what's going to happen in the day. What's going to happen with the sports teams or what's going to happen with the traffic, the highways and so forth. But when Laney is going to go to interview Prophet Jack he kind of just slips in. Like, and on next Thursday, you're going to die. There's nothing like a street prophet who just kind of slips in in the middle of your live interview. Next week, you're going to be dead, you're going to die, which brings the main character to face all of her thoughts and beliefs about mortality. Any of us ever had a psychic prophet, you know you go in what's going to happen in my, my future, how is my future going to be if the psychic says, next week you'll be dead. You will begin to examine your beliefs in mortality and death. Now the good thing about this is Jesus knows that death is not an event in time and space that is not something that actually happens to the Bible. It actually happens to the body, because the body is just a symbol is just a projection, but he does tell us that the ego belief system in the mind is the death. If you believe in the ego, you believe in death. And of course the world acts that belief out very well. This is a world of birth and death. And in many cultures, birth is celebrated throughout one's lifetime, birthdays, and death is mourned as a great loss as an ending. And Jesus is the experience of eternal life. The Christ is eternal life. So Christ is teaching us that birth was made up by the ego and death was made up by the ego and all the form that you perceive in time and space is a projection of that ego. So it seems like bodies die, but Jesus is saying now you need to face this death wish in your mind, because you'll never transcend it by just believing it's external it's outside of you. If you believe death is something that's going to happen to your body, then then you'll either try to repress it and deny it and most human beings are examples of that. So when a baby is born, usually the mother and the father who are just delivered a newborn baby, they may caress the baby's head they may hold the baby. But usually mom and dad don't say, oh, enjoy it because you're going to die. They do not usually present the death idea to the newborn. The newborns already crying. It's it's been a rough entry. The baby is already crying usually with a slap on the bottom or something like that. And the death wish is not introduced. Oh, you sweet one, sweet sweet. Welcome to the realm of death where all things die, including you, you know that that is not a way the mom talks to a baby usually. So mom is a course of miracle student and realizes that that all I'm believing in death and I need my whole life with you is going to be about undoing the ego so we can both be set free. So all the projections are set free. Now that's a very enlightened mom. But she's in that state of mind. She's, she's almost there. She's almost home. Because in this movie, Laney is, she has built a career. She has built an image of herself. She grew up watching Marilyn Monroe movies and she tries for the big blonde hair of Marilyn Monroe. She really is going for the Marilyn Monroe look. And, you know, Angelina Jolie can get away with that. She's, she can, she can get away with Marilyn, a modern day contemporary Marilyn. She wants to be famous. Marilyn became famous. She wants to have famous husband. Marilyn was, was married to Joe DiMaggio and Arthur Miller. She wants to she's Laney is, is got a fiance named cow. And, and then when she starts to question everything in her life, like, what is it all for. She doesn't only have a week to live or less than a week. She starts to really get deep, you know, she starts to ponder what's the purpose of, of, of life what's the purpose of this world. How am I going to spend the last week of my life. Is this profit, even telling the truth at first you will try to label and dismiss the profit. I know that many human beings would do that if they were confronted with a prophecy that they would be dead in less than a week. One of the things that humans do with the egos blessing is just deny. Now that's not going to happen. That's impossible. It's a joke. Who put, who put this profit up, who paid this profit, you know, it's going to be, it will be like, like Kubler Ross calls it denial. It's a huge amount of denial when faced with the belief and death. Most people do not give that much thought to death, because they, they have so many other things that are keeping their attention that they would rather wait until the final day or weeks before they entertain the possibility. So it kind of, it kind of bears on you all along whenever you look around and you perceive sickness or suffering whenever you perceive murder, whenever you perceive war, whenever you perceive conflict and arguments and fights, or starving children or any of these kind of things. That's, that's the belief in death starting to come up into awareness. And there's something in you that says, this is just not right. This is what's going on. How, how is this possible if God is pure love. So of course a miracles comes in and says yes, actually God did not create this world. You are looking through a darkened glass, you're perceiving the egos world and the ego is a death wish. So you shouldn't be too surprised that the world is offering you reflections of death because the, the concept, the belief that made it is, is dark, it's a death wish. It's a wish for death. Now, Freud and Carl Jung and so forth, they started to realize that there was this thing called an unconscious mind. And young said, you know, you, the only way to release shadows is to look at them. And Jesus is saying the same thing that Carl Jung said he's saying, if you want to release the shadows in your mind, you have to look at them. You have to be willing to let them come up into awareness. You have to allow the darkness to be brought to the light. You can't bring light to this darkened world because it's a projection, but you can bring the darkened beliefs and thoughts in your mind to the light and they will disappear. So Jesus is telling us the pathway to God is you don't try to deny the darkness. You have to face it. For most people, they don't really ever think of facing the belief in death. They think that death is an outcome at the end of their form, worldly life. And so they try to push it off and not think about it. And then they're very shocked when it comes suddenly, but actually they're more trying to escape death by not thinking about it. And Jesus says, well, you do believe in death because you believe in the ego and it's in your unconscious mind. So no matter what you do to try to avoid it in form, you will still have to face the belief in death sooner or later. And Jesus is saying, I'm right here. I've got nothing else going on. Why don't we do it sooner? Let's do it now. Let's face it now. Don't put it off. Face the belief in death. Face the belief in the ego and transcend it. Be a transcendent being because that's who you really are. You always have been a transcendent being. Now, when I was looking at this movie, one of the things that came up and Jesus does this with me is when, before I even started really looking closely at the movie again, Jesus said, David, let's go into the course workbook and let's go to workbook lesson number 13. And workbook lesson number 13 says a meaningless world engenders fear. So he starts off with workbook lesson number one, nothing I see means anything. So he's already teaching us from the very first workbook lesson that what we're perceiving with the five senses is really meaningless. He says that in the first lesson. But now in lesson number 13, he's bringing in an emotion that is tied to this meaningless world and that emotion is fear. And that's because the ego made up this world to conceal the fear and conceal the light that is beneath the fear. So in other words, in order to reach heaven, you have to pull your attention away from the meaningless world, the figures, and the images and you have to go inside your mind and start to face your thoughts and beliefs, because the ego is just a belief. The ego is a belief in separation from God and that's why it's the death wish, because separation from God is impossible. If you believe the impossible, then you experience an impossible emotion which is called fear. Why is fear impossible because God didn't create it. You see, God is only love. God is pure love. So if you believe in fear, you believe in the ego, but no one can live in terror. No one can live in horror. So that's why it was pushed down out of awareness into the unconscious mind. So you can seem to survive and live as a person with a daily life and get little bits of fear. But the big fear is the belief in separation and that's pushed out of awareness. And that big fear is covering over the light. So you have to go through that with Jesus to reach the light. And this is why many of the mystics and saints throughout the ages, like St. John of the Cross, talked about the dark night of the soul. As soon as John of the Cross decided not to pursue the things of this world in Spain, and there was another famous saint too, Teresa of Avila. Teresa and John decided, let's go for God and let's give up the values and pursuits of the world. And then, ooh, dark night of the soul. Didn't see that one coming. Whoa, I thought it'd be light down there. It's black. It's pitch black. And you'll hear that from the Pasadam meditators. You'll hear that from Buddhist. You'll hear that from Christian mystics. Everybody who goes down deep enough goes and faces the death wish. And this is why we like the Star Wars movie. Darth Vader. Luke has got to face Darth Vader, right? We know in all of the movies that you have to face the darkness. You have to face the evil. You have to face that. Now, I'm just going to give you a little bit from work with less than number 13, because Jesus is explaining why that this self concept image that Laney has been pursuing in the movie. Famous TV personality. She wants to be more famous, go national. She wants the famous hunk of a boyfriend named cow. She wants to make the perfect beautiful partnership of two beautiful bodies. She wants the money, the fortune, all the goodies and perks that come with money and high paying careers and all that all the typical things of the world. That's why Jesus is telling us in workbook lesson number 13 that none of that will work. A meaningless world and gender sphere today's idea is really another form of the preceding one, except that it is more specific as to the emotion around. A meaningless world is impossible. Nothing without meaning exists. However, it does not follow that you will not think you perceive something that has no meaning. On the contrary, you will be particularly likely to think you do perceive it. So if Jesus came right out in lesson number one and he says, nothing I see means anything. And then he would say, actually you're just hallucinating and everything you perceive with the five senses isn't there. It's an entire hallucination. It waits until later in the book to use the word in the workbook to talk about hallucinations that's too much for lesson number one just to be told. It doesn't mean anything is enough for lesson number one. But now, in lesson number 13 he's explaining why the perceptual world is fearful. The recognition of meaninglessness arouses intense anxiety in all the separated ones. Oh no wonder when you meditate and you go deep in your mind to meditate you start to feel restless. You know why you feel restless is because there's anxiety underneath the sense of meaninglessness. You're told drop down sink down into your mind below the thoughts and sights and sounds of this world. Let it all go. Just be a monk be be a mystic and just drop down down down sink down into nirvana to the kingdom of heaven, and you start thinking and and then you're like you see the fly you feel your back feels a little stiff. You feel fatigue. I'm so tired I can meditate my eyes are closing down. Sorry Jesus I can't. You know, you, you start to be feel all the human things that come up because why he's saying recognition of meaninglessness arouses intense anxiety in all the separated ones. This presents a situation in which God and the ego challenge each other as to whose meaning is to be written in the empty space that meaninglessness provides. The ego rushes in frantically to establish its own ideas there fearful that the void may otherwise be used to demonstrate its own impotence and unreality. Alone it is correct. It is essential therefore that you learn to recognize the meaningless and accept it without fear. If you are fearful it is certain that you will endow the world with attributes that it does not possess and crowded with images that do not exist. To the ego illusions are safety devices as they must also be to you who equate yourself with the ego. So, the ego made this whole world as a giant distractive device and hoping that the sleeping mind would start to equate itself with the body, equate itself with the personality, equate itself with the images. Therefore, not realize that the entire projected world is nothing. It's just illusion. It is Maya, it has no reality whatsoever. It's a hallucination of trying to read meaning where there is no me. And that's less than number two in the workbook I have given everything I see all the meaning it has for me you see he's, he's giving us the dynamics. And of course the miracles that the mystics and saints have been praying for for centuries. We have the advantage of Jesus giving us the context and the metaphysics of why it's important to let go of all value of the projected world. Because if you see meaning in the world, then you will remain afraid of going within, you'll be afraid of the underlying darkness and you'll even be more afraid of the light that is underneath the darkness which is the light of heaven you see. Jesus is such a master. He's showing us all the metaphysics around going into your mind in the deepest way possible and finding who you are, the Christ. I learned about time because times and illusion to. So, when, when Jesus is asked in the course how long will it take to to reach a state of purity of complete oneness and love and light. I'm answering the how long question Jesus ask another question. And his question is how long is an instant. You see that's his pep talk. How long is going to take me to completely forgive the ego and Jesus is like, how long is an instant. How long do you want this instant to be. I'm with you now, we're, we're here now, just accept me as I am now, and you accept yourself as well as the Christ. But time is like a deluded projection in which there's so many distractions, always vying for attention. Now the reason I'm giving you all this metaphysics is because this is a great movie this is actually a really spectacular teaching device I have to say out of all of Angelina Joe leaves movies yes Angelina you get the Oscar for this one because this is our metaphysical awakening movie. You're showing us that as long as you pursue the self concept to overcompensate for the lack in the past childhood past black. And then you're falling for the trick and you, you're cynical, you're doubtful, and you, you actually believe that you need the career to be happy, you need the fiance to be happy. You need the fame to be happy you need the beautiful body to be happy. And, and if you believe all those things, you are twice removed from true happiness, you're not even close to true happiness. In this movie it's going to take a relationship isn't that great how Jesus always sends in the torpedo of the relationship, even when the ego has such a grip on the mind and it's so certain. It's got the perfect life, you know, perfect life. Then Jesus will send in the torpedo of a relationship. And then this, this movie this relationship is Pete. Pete is Mr. No private thoughts. Pete is Mr. No people pleasing. Pete is tell it like it is and say it like it is and don't hold back. Pete will just talk to Laney and say you are the most egotistical person I have ever met. He will just womb womb womb. She's beautiful she's got the Marilyn Monroe figure she's got the blonde hair she's got the beauty she's got the, the fame her careers on the rise and in comes Pete to tell her, what a fake, what a fake. You are you see. So this is the Holy Spirit and Jesus torpedoing the self concept. And in the end, that's why Jesus focuses on relationship as a means for awakening because they mirror what you believe in. And Pete, Pete and Laney have have have had their romantic moment in the past. She prefers not to remember that she is still mad at, at Pete. And basically, she has nothing really good to say about Pete. She's, she's always joking how, how bad he is. But he's been sent in by the Holy Spirit to break through that self concept. He's, he's there to, to be a reminder that there's something much more. She's very organized. He's very relaxed and more in the present moment. She's very future oriented with career. He doesn't need to care at all about career, you know, he'll, if he feels to spend the day doing something else or with his son, he will do that, instead of going to work, because for him, there are many things more important than work and career. So this is the beauty of the movie. It's showing you how, when you have a prayer in your heart to read, be spontaneous to be joyful to be happy to shine your light. The spirit will find a way to make that happen, because it's your prayer. You want to be happy and free. The spirit will find a way to unwind the self concept, so that you can actually be happy and free in the moment. And that's why I think this is, I would again say this is one of our classic movies. And the movie watchers guide to enlightenment so today we're going into a classic one. Also, I have asked them to leave the final the theme song on at the end of the movie. Because I'll give you a few lyrics from it, looking to the sky to save me, looking for a sign of life, looking for something to help me burn out bright. Make my way back home when I can learn to fly, looking for a way to fly. I can't quite make it alone. Make my way back home. I can't learn to. It's a beautiful song when the credits roll again the Holy Spirit comes blasting in even on the credits of these classic movies. You just make it through a classic movie and the Holy Spirit comes booming in even during the credits. Like, listen, pay attention. It's important. This is for you. This is for your mind. Please hear me. This is one of our classics. So, sit back. Enjoy the movie. I'll pop in from time to time with some commentary. And I think you're going to find this a very hard opening movie. It's very, very hard opening facing the belief in death and learning to go beyond it to the present moment.
