 Okay, hello everyone. Welcome once again. Welcome to our all-day movie workshop. I'm Peter and I'm going to be the host today. Yeah, we have a brand new series that David's showing and I'm really looking forward to seeing his commentary and watching. And yeah, for those who are new, I'll just let you know about the day. So we're going to start with David who will be showing these episodes. And then afterwards we'll have a 10 minute break. And then we have breakout rooms where you can share any emotions or your experiences. And then we'll have a longer 45 minute break. And then we'll go into the Q&A session with me. So I'm going to pass it over to you now David. Thank you Peter. Welcome everyone. Happy to see you all again. We're going to, for the next month we're taking a deep dive into the mind, using the perception of form, relationships, all the hurts and pains that seem to surface and start to realize it's actually quite simple that everything we perceive with the five senses has been made up by the ego to blind us from the truth. Just like Morpheus told Neo in the matrix, the world you see was made to blind you from the truth. And Jesus is helping us out of the presence of Jesus is so strong because he's helping us begin to realize that what we're perceiving through the five senses is a fragmented world that basically is just the past. And he's encouraging us to join him in the kingdom of heaven and to leave the past behind. He says we're a bit preoccupied with the past. And because the ego invented the past. Basically, when we keep following along on the tagline of the world, and all the events and the judging the good things and the bad things and the good experiences and the bad experiences. We're not realizing that we're asleep and dreaming and that the whole thing is made up. So today, we began the first of four, four Saturdays where we're going to all watch the same movie instead of watching a movie of maybe an hour and a half with me, we're going to watch a seven hour movie. Again, and we're going to take it piece by piece, because this is helpful in starting to experience what the miracle is in starting to build trust and confidence to really give your heart over to God and go through a very profound healing that will allow you to be who you are the living Christ and just to create love and light. So, as you know, we start with movie themes, and we start with really these are actually healing themes that that interest you the most. So, on our movie poll, we have an English poll we have a Spanish poll we have a tribe movie poll. And this is what you voted on these are the top themes that we will use today's we'll call them episodes two episodes today from a series called another self that is very recent just was published on Netflix in late July. So here are the themes we're going to be addressing today. The first one, receiving the most votes 61 votes was allowing deeper hurts to surface for healing. Oftentimes we think, wow, I would just like a peaceful life but when we try to control the aspects of the world to try to bring about as we find it doesn't work. It's very frustrating to try to control the world. And so allowing deeper hurts to surface for healing is is the top theme. And what we're really doing is we're letting the darkness in our mind, or the past memories that we have surface up into awareness so we can become fully aware of them and then we can release them. And sometimes people say to me, you know, allowing the deeper hurts to surface for healing that's easier said than done. What if I spent my whole life trying to hide the hurt. What if I've been stuffing things repressing things people pleasing, hiding my thoughts, keeping private thoughts and secrets what if my entire life has been devoted to that and I'm like yeah that's why we do need inspiration and we need a spark to show us that that way will not work. We need to be very willing to allow the darkness to surface so that we can release it. I see, I see my friend Johnny's here with us Johnny, Johnny wrote to me. She's just been through the mystery school and and she's about 81 years old and we're earth terms and she's, she's ready for some big time healing with this course and miracles. And she was writing to me telling me, you know, she's had some things going on with her, her daughter and perceived stage free cancer. Her grandson being disagreeable some things. And, and this is very typical we finally have some family members or some friends or dear friends or neighbors or colleagues that are going through some very difficult things. And the real prayer of the heart is how do I relate that to my mind, how do I relate all that to my consciousness. How do I let go of worries and concerns and doubts and regrets and learn to realize that I'm healed and whole and so is everyone else in the in the presence of God's love. So that's why we're doing this together to for it to be practical. I might also mention. I see my friend burnt is there hey burnt, burnt is the one who he tip me off to this, this Turkish series. I showed a movie recently that Ricky Como tip me off to called doom of love which was a Turkish movie, and we were able to have an amazing Saturday movie session that took it all the way to beyond this world. And then burnt said oh there's a series you might want to check out so thank you burnt. You're doing this for everyone you're you're tipping all of us off into the healing means we can use using the things of time and space to free our mind from from guilt from from sadness and hurt and imprisonment. So the second theme is dare to be fully taken over by the miracle. One of us know that when we start to have these, these serendipitous moments we start to feel light, we start to feel joyful, carried like our heart is opening up, and we're like, Wow, this is fantastic. I love this healing vibe I love this healing energy and then the ego tries to sabotage and come in and say not so fast don't don't think you're going to get too joyful too quick here. I'm going to throw in some some roadblocks and that's simply when we still value the past, and we're still holding on to aspects of the past. That's really what's going on. That's where we, we seem to struggle. That's when the challenges get difficult when there's some aspect of the past, where we're still holding on, then it turns into a very strong forgiveness opportunity. We are all daring to be fully taken over by the miracle. It's like saying to spirit, you lead the way now I'm not going to be in charge of this healing. I tried it on my own. It didn't work. Now, I'm going to do it in collaboration with you. And I'm going to listen and follow and tune in and become more intuitive. The third one is do not make conclusions about my healing journey. Oftentimes, we see the healing journey is very personal, and then we judge the personality self that's maybe we think it's going too slow, or it's too resistant, or it's too unwilling. And it's not really the personality self. That's the problem because that's just part of a projection of error and guilt. It's actually our mind is afraid of the light. Our mind is afraid of the Holy Spirit. And why would our sleeping mind be afraid of the Holy Spirit except if we believe that something will be lost. It's something real and important that is sacrificed to wake up in the love of God. It says if the belief is that the light is going to take something away from us. When the light knows that there is nothing that can be taken away from us, because God created us perfect. If you have no belief in having to relinquish something that's real or let go of something that's real. I would just say we can lump all that, that belief in fear of losing something important and to one belief, and that is the belief in sacrifice. That you have to sacrifice something important to be who you already are to be the spirit reality that God created you the ego is saying, it's going to cost you, you're going to pay dearly to to remember that. And Jesus is like saying no no actually there's no cost at all. It's a free gift, because God gave, gave our identity freely. And now all we have to do is remember who we are. That's really what this whole experience is about. This comes finding will the willingness to be wrong and forgive. You know whenever we, we hold a grievance, really what we're just saying is that we're, we believe that we're right that we were wronged. We believe that we were mistreated. We believe that something has gone wrong. And, and oftentimes, with that feeling of that that something has been done against us that that we're holding on to we don't really see that we're just wanting to be right about the ego belief system, we're wanting to be right about the ego's world, and we're wanting to collect evidence to, to perpetuate guilt. It's, it's quite sad that all attempts to be right when you're trying to argue with somebody and prove that you're right underneath that is just the attempt to perpetuate guilt. Why would we point the finger at somebody when we're just accusing ourselves of the same thing. I know years ago, Jesus told me he said whenever you point the finger at somebody, just remember that there's three fingers pointing back at you. One for the father one for the son and one for the Holy Ghost. The Trinity is going. No, stop it. You quit condemning your brothers and sisters because you're just condemning yourself every time you fire that laser gun into the mirror boom boom boom fire that laser gun and and of course the mirror reflects it back. And that's why Jesus said, forgive them for they know not what they do. That's why Jesus said, judge not, lest you be judged, because the mind that thinks it can judge is generally judging itself, and it doesn't realize that it's setting up a prison, a prison of vice that that will not allow it to know it's true happiness. Finally, learning the lesson of perfect equality. Wow, there can't be any better classroom for learning equality than the mind that believes in in people. The ego people the world and the ego says look they're all different. Some of them you like some of them you don't like some of them you think are are good some of them you think are bad. And the ego is not letting showing us that it people the whole world with evidence from the past. Again, everything that's perceived with the five senses is simply the past acted out in our consciousness. Everything without exception is the past. This is lesson number seven from the workbook of a course of miracles I see only the past. And of course he follows it up and tells us why. Why do I see only the past. It's the only the past because my mind is preoccupied with past thoughts that's workbook lesson number eight. So Jesus says, he systematically teaching us that we have a split mind problem, because the Holy Spirit is in our mind but the ego appears to still be there as well until we forgive it. So it's a split mind. It's a schizophrenic condition it's a psychotic condition. It's, it's not a happy state of mind when you believe in two thought systems that have no meeting point whatsoever. The ego thought system of love, which is the Holy Spirit's and then the ego's thought system of fear, guilt, pain and death. You cannot reconcile eternal life with fear, guilt, pain and death. So what this series will show us and I love this series because it's, it's, it's called another self and basically we're going to follow the lives of a three women who are besties, three women who are best friends, and they start off their, their living in Istanbul in Turkey, and two of the women are married and one of the women is not married. What the series will help us see is that everything we perceive with the five senses is a projection of a vault of the past. So everything that ego made and everything that ego is, which is a belief in separation is stored and saved you might say in a vault of the past. And sometimes the unconscious mind is seen to be this vault. Now, some of you know the iceberg analogy where the tip of the iceberg is visible above the water and then underneath it is this vast layer of ice that is under the surface. And most psychologists and most spiritual teachers will refer to this, this below the surface belief system as the unconscious mind. Now from Jesus's perspective, he has a little different view of the unconscious mind. Now he sees, there's this mind of love and light, and it's so bright, because it was created by God. So the mind is so bright and so vast, and then there's a little spot. A little tiny dark spot. And all of time and space and the ego is in this little dark spot. It's Jesus calls it a tiny gap. So the purpose you might say of forgiveness is now to let the light just flow across this tiny gap of darkness and and realize that the gap isn't real. You know the light will just flow across it and and everything goes to light when we allow that gap to be to be dissolved to be undone to be shown away. So, this, this series we're going to watch will follow these three women. There's, there's Ada, there's Lila, and there's Sevgi. So, Ada, Lila, Sevgi, they're three best friends. And what is helpful about having these three characters show us the way is because they, they love each other they like to talk to each other. They're fairly transparent. They, they, they may try a little bit to hide their feelings, but because they're best friends. They, they have something underneath, which is just this deep love and connection that allows them to go through this experience of healing. I think they have a connection. And I would say that these three are the beginnings of what the course calls holy relationship, because these three. They have their hurts, they have their pains, and they have their struggles, which is part of the projection of the human condition, but they are there for each other, and they are not making a huge effort to hide their pain. Of course, there, there are, there's some hiding going on and there's some secrets but that's the same with all seeming relationships of this world. The purpose is to release the hiding, release the privacy. And, and that's what is going on. Now, I was in the course and miracles and asking Jesus to kind of give me some snippets to talk about before we begin watching this movie together this series together. And I was particularly interested in some clear explanation and direction about what's going on with linear time, because most everyone's familiar with the frictions that go on in interpersonal relationships the frictions and families the frictions in the workplace. The frictions within countries and neighborhoods. That seems to be very much in everyone's awareness. But what's going on underneath these seeming frictions that are in the characters of time and space. Well, this is what Jesus has to say this is from chapter 13. You can hold on to the past only through guilt. So even that that first line tells us a lot you can hold on to the past only through guilt. If you think about your relationships, whenever there are roles, or whenever there is a sense to try to control within the role that is attempting to hold on to the past through guilt. And you can remember that from from these interactions. When people question your motives when they they question your values when they question your behaviors and your actions. Why did you do this. Or when they start to bring in. That's not the way a son or a daughter should behave. Or that's not the way a mother or father should behave. There's a lot of expectations packed into these self concept roles. And so you can hold on to the past only through guilt is is a great reminder that the past that we perceive always is coming about through the projection of guilt. If you had no guilt in your mind, and I mean zero guilt, then the world would disappear, you would have no need of the world. Why would you need the world. Because if you have no guilt in your mind, you would just be perfect love, perfect light, perfect joy, perfect happiness. This world is not really necessary. If you're, if you know who you are. This is just part of the training ground to remain temporary. It won't last. So, Jesus says for guilt establishes that you will be punished for what you have done. And thus depends on one dimensional time proceeding from past to future. What did you just say Jesus. What did you just call this world one dimensional time one dimensional time proceeding from past to future. Now we can see why it's so difficult. Of course, if we're sleeping and we believe in one dimensional time. And what if time, first of all doesn't even exist but second of all, if it's, if it's simultaneous and multi dimensional really it's what if it's time is simultaneous and we're proceeding. We're perceiving it as this one dimensional timeline. And what we take for granted in this world is that time goes from past, the present to future. And Jesus is like, Oh, oh, so much work. So much to believe in one. He says it one dimensional time proceeding from past to future. No one who believes this can understand what always means. One must deprive you of the appreciation of eternity. I mean, let's face it, you know, we're when we put on Whitney Houston song, and I will always love you. Oh, our hearts are like, Oh, I will always love you and Jesus says, just for a moment in the middle of the song. No one who believes this one dimensional time can understand what always means. It's, it feels good it's sentimentally always forever. These are the best Valentine's Day cards. I will love you forever. I will love you always and Jesus is saying, well, as long as you believe in one dimensional time, you're not going to be able to understand what always means. Yes, you are created immortal by God. You are an immortal being of love and light. And yet, while you believe in one one dimensional time, one dimensional time past present future, then you're not going to know what always means guilt then is a way of holding past and future in your mind to ensure the egos continuity. Say that again, guilt then is a way of holding past and future in your mind to ensure the egos continuity. So, really what we're dealing with here is we have a time issue. So, really the present moment is our gateway to eternity and now is the closest approximate approximation of eternity that this world offers. And when we're addicted to the past and the future we're just trying to perpetuate the ego and perpetuate guilt, because actually time is not one dimensional that's just an egoic belief, the ego made up of the future and it squeeze them on the outside of the present moment to try to make a false sense of reality. In eternity there is no past present future. There's only now. There's only what is now. So, in our, what seems to be our human lives, all we're seeing every day through the five senses is the belief in this past present future acted out in, in terms of bodies, and the bodies are always talking about time. What are you, where did you come from. What do you do for a living. What are your future goals and ambitions nonsense. This is a bunch of nonsense. This is not going to get us to wake up from the dream when we're just talking about the past and the future with all of our words because it just means our thoughts are about the past and future. You might say that even if we take a look at time and we say well what if it's if it's not one dimensional what if everything we are perceiving is just a version of the same ego. So, we could say, my family tree my family history my family constellations go back. And this is what happened to my great grandma and great grandpa on my mother's side and my father's side. And then here's what happened to my grandfather and my grandmother on my mother's side and my father's side. And here's all what happened to my mother and my father. Well, what I'm going through how are these all connected. Well, these dark beliefs about the ego are played out generationally in what seems to be linear time, but it's the same issue. You may have noticed that even in what this seems to be this lifetime as a personality, you may notice certain patterns and certain issues that are replaying themselves over and over again with different forms, but the but the patterns are still there. Has anybody ever studied astrology. Yeah, what do you think astrology is about except patterns. Anybody looked into numerology. What do you think numerology is about except its patterns. Anybody looked into any family constellations. What is family constellation about patterns. Anybody done gone for some past life regressions where you were hypnotized and and went down and started to look at what happened in past patterns. So Jesus is saying good good good glad that you're interested in patterns. Because the patterns are all coming from your belief in one dimensional time. The patterns are projected like a movie. And when you go to a movie theater watch a movie. Consciously you know you're just watching something that's been filmed and edited and produced and you're just watching a bunch of images on a screen. That has been produced from pre recorded material, right. And if you go into a movie theater and they say we're going to have live opera, or we're going to have live theater. Then you say, Oh, this isn't pre recorded this is happening now like, like some of you think that I'm actually speaking to you right now in a live broadcast. I'm going to tell you there's no difference between pre recorded and live. This is all a pre arranged plan, and these words are all part of a script that's already written, and you're just reviewing it mentally believing you're, you're watching something live, but I am not actually live. This, this body is just an image from the past that's being pulled up. And these words are just words from the past that are being pulled up. And you're just watching the past like all of us we're just watching something that is already over and gone. And we're imagining that it's still happening. And Jesus is like, yeah, that's, that's the problem with one dimensional time is you, you still believe the separation is real and you still believe it's being acted out now. He wants to remind us that what he says in the course is at no single instant, does the body exists at all. All right. So, at no single instant does the body exists he's talking about revelation he's talking about light. He's talking about direct contact with the creator. And that no single instant does the body exists at all it's always remembered or anticipated. You see, it's always a product of one dimensional time. Imagine that right now with us, your, your grandparents are with us right now, right here right now. What if your parents are here, you think you're here without your parents but what if they're here too. And what if your great grandparents and all the generations are all here right now. That's very quantum. What if we're all just one mind and all these images are all appearing simultaneously in that mind. And you might say that is mind blowing. Well, actually this is where Jesus is taking us. If your mind hasn't already been blown it will be as you keep following Jesus. He's, he's going to blow the mind so open that you'll realize that the last characteristic of the teacher of God is open mindedness where you realize it can't get any more open than this Jesus and Jesus is like yeah, I'm, I'm you and you're me. And we're the same self. And we always have been the same self that's that's the happy, the happy discovery. Oh my gosh, I'm the Christ. And I've never done anything wrong or right, because I've always been the Christ, and always will be. Then we begin to open up to this always. What we're going to see in this series is, we're going to see the main characters, going through a transformation, where what they thought was wrong in their life was not really the problem. What happens to the women are married and they have the struggles of what seems to be marriage in the world to personalities that are married. And there's another one that she's single, but she's been diagnosed with cancer. So we have a single woman who's been diagnosed with cancer and we have two married women. These three besties are going to go through a transformation of consciousness where they start to realize that the love inside of them is stronger than the challenges that the ego is presenting to them. The hate inside of them is stronger than the errors of perception that they're holding on to. Isn't that good news for all of us. Are we ready to watch a series together maybe a seven hour movie where where we can realize there's so much more than what we believed was happening. We just had a very tiny band of belief, and we were fixated on this one dimensional time as if that was all there was. And there actually is as much more. So, because this is a a Turkish. We'll call it a Turkish mini series. I'm going to tell you some of the names of the characters again because when I saw these names I had no familiarity whatsoever with the names. And that's why sometimes I have to like, try to have a moment to think what what's her name what's his name. So the three best friends are Sevgi, Ada, and Leila. And we see that there is a man in the series who's going to play he's going to play like the healer character, the guru, the one that's going to help show them that it's okay to let the past up and it's okay to move through hurtful feelings. And it's okay to open yourself to love and to wholeness and light, and his name is Zaman. So Zaman is our guru. And we have Sevgi, Ada and Leila. Now, Sevgi is an attorney. And Ada is a surgeon, and Leila is is a very free spirited wife. And, and in this movie they start off in Istanbul but they are going to take a trip to a beach town in Turkey, called Ivalik. And it is because in one sense you might say to go on the healing journey they're going to have to leave their familiar city and go to a beach town where there's lots of sun and water and warm. And I think this is just a willingness, a symbol of a willingness that we have to go beyond what we've identified as our earth lives to let the spirit use the symbols to take us toward that. To take us toward that light and that warmth. That's what Ivalik symbolizes for me. And they will go through a series of sessions that Zaman does in Ivalik, and, and what these sessions are is allowing the past to surface. So, all their surface interpretations are going to be brought into question. The perception of cancer, the perception of very, very tumultuous and, and relationships filled with conflict and friction those are all part of ego perceptions. When you allow the darker thoughts and beliefs underneath that are really we could say generational in this one dimensional time model, all of that will come to the surface for healing. And we'll see that there's little constellations that Ada is married to Selim, and then she has an old boyfriend, Toprak, who enters the picture. Oh, a triangle. Wow triangle constellations are great for healing, because they bring up all the jealousy, all the envy, all the would have could have should have. All of the attempt to pick the right person as a partner. What a trip, one dimensional time and now you've got to pick the right person as a partner. And Jesus is like, please, we're eternal immortal beings, and you're, you are struggling over much to do about nothing. You really are in love with everyone, but you've forgotten that time is simultaneous and now you think it's one dimensional and now you're struggling with all these crazy concepts. And it has a mother called Mooko, and Seve will meet a man called Fico. Notice in this beautiful series that Fico is such a sweet man that he tends to wear shirts with vertical stripes I'm wearing this in honor of Fico. He's such a sweetie he oftentimes shows up in the scenes with vertical stripes. He's like a reminder from the Holy Spirit stay vertical, stay simultaneous with me here don't get caught in this one dimensional past future thing, stay vertical. Layla is basically, she's married to a pretty sneaky character called Erdem, and she has they, Layla and Erdem have a son named Sarp. First time I've ever heard that word Sarp. And then Layla is I think her great grandmother will be part of some of the flashbacks her great grandmother's name is Elena. Elena. So basically, these are some of the main characters, you will get to know them very well as you watch this. And this is what I like about this series, you will get to watch every day relationships, and how the Holy Spirit loosens the mind from the attachments from the control from the expectations of what seemed to be every day relationships in order to open the heart and order to release the past in order to, to be more spontaneous to be more in the flow in the guidance and, and everybody will have to loosen from the self concept of what they believe is true in this one dimensional time. The wives are going to have to take a close look at what it means to be a wife. The, the girlfriends are even going to have to look at what it means. What does it mean to be a good, a girlfriend or a best friend. It opens the boyfriends, everything is up for question in this healing journey, because what Jesus is saying is, you have a fixed belief in one dimensional time. And time is not what you think it is time is not a one dimensional invention. It's all happening simultaneously, and you are simply perceiving a little segment on the one dimensional timeline. That's projecting the guilt. And you need to let go actually of time, you have to let go of the belief in linear time of linear one dimensional time that's what it's going to take for enlightenment or self realization you will actually have to release the belief in linear time. Now I know some of you might be saying that's like asking a fish this question water. It's like asking a fish who's swimming around in the ocean, which are you willing to question that belief in ocean. You see, to a human being that can seem like that's, that's pretty, that's pretty deep. This series is deep, deep, deep, because it's starting to question what is accepted norms accepted beliefs, when actually Jesus is teaching us in the course that you have to question everything. You can't, you can't hold on to anything that you believe about time in order to wake up from time. Sit back, enjoy the first two episodes of this and I will pop in during the episodes to bring a little commentary but we're in for a very healing ride here with Jesus, taking us on a very deep journey into the mind. Okay, see you soon.
