 further ado, David take it away. Okay, thank you Jeff. Well today we're going to all go into an experience. So I'm going to use a very deep movie to help us enter into this experience. And this adventure will take two days. So we'll do it today and tomorrow. And the reason it's going to take two days to do one movie is because we're going to dive into the true meaning and the true experience that the movie is pointing towards. So just to begin to set the movie up I want to share a little bit of metaphysics from A Course of Miracles. That in order to experience a world of time and space that is unlike God requires a very deep denial of love and of God. So this world that seems to be so real has come about from denying God and denying spirit. And many of us are familiar with the Bible and Genesis where it said God created the heavens and the earth. But actually God created heaven and the ego made the earth. And the stars and the galaxies and the cosmos. And so in addition to denying God now the mind has also denied that this is a dream world. The ego is the fixed belief that this world is real. Yes the ego is the fixed belief that this world is real. So that means that everything that's part of perception in a linear way is like the matrix. So we have a lot of movies that show us that this world is like a construct. It's a fabrication. Like the matrix and like you might say the 13th floor. So we want to have an experience that goes beyond thinking of this world as reality. We need an experience that shows us the deception of this world. And so already this weekend we have talked about emptying the mind and letting go of concepts. And changing our entire perception of the world. So today's movie which will go on into tomorrow is called The Island. And as the movie starts we are going to see dreams, visions and an artificial world. And the main characters are going to have to discover that what they live in is not reality. That they must escape from everything that they think they know to discover the truth. And so this will turn into a love story but it's a love story that sets all the captives free. Ultimately people cannot be free but the mind can be free. So we're ready. We're ready to start our movie. It's going to be a journey. Sit back and enjoy The Island. So for this first part of the movie we see that there's a community, a society that all wears white and it's supposed to be 2019. And I want you to pay attention to this society as it relates to our societies and our cultures. In their world everybody wants to win the lottery and in this world everybody wants to win the lottery. In their world they have controls, dietary controls, controls on what the people can do and it's the same in our world. In their world they have tasks to do and they have lots to do to work and to keep the body fit and same with this world. And everyone in their world and this world thinks there has to be something more to life than what we are experiencing. Our main character there, Ewan McGregor, he's very curious and we start to see his curiosity as the movie goes on. And I think everyone attending our weekend workshop has a degree of curiosity too because they know that there's something to forgive or heal or escape. And the mind that believes it's a body knows that it has to escape something, it has to go beyond the limits. If this world ever seems boring to you, if you ever are frustrated by this world, if you feel you are held back in some way, these conditions have nothing to do with the light of heaven. This world is a very limited perception of reality and our goal will be to follow the main character in his escape from limitations. Because his escape will be our escape. Okay, back to the movie. So, this Dr. Merrick is telling our main character about a story. And it's the same story that the ego tells the sleeping mind. You survived the contamination. You survived the fall from grace. You survived the separation from God. And there's something good about this world. You can repopulate it now. Have a lot of sex, procreation, populate the world. And in his world there of course is the lottery. This is a lottery when people win, they get to go to the island. Repopulate paradise. But the island is always this thing in the future. The ego says it may feel kind of rotten, but your life will get better in the future. And the ego is always promising a better future. It's this hypothetical future. Work hard at your job, even if you're bored. Do the things you need to survive. And in the future things may get better. Now in this movie they have a very limited education. You saw them reading books, they were almost like children's books. In this world they're not allowed to get too close, otherwise they get a proximity warning. Pretty controlling. The diet is very controlled. They don't, we never see them having sex. We do, we did see a pregnant woman so maybe somebody cheats. We don't see them having sex, but we see a pregnant woman so maybe somebody is bullying the system. Always someone to break the rule. So again I want you to focus on the similarities of this society, this white dress society and the world that you seem to live in. Notice the control, notice the police, and notice the rules, because we will begin to see that our mind has made all of this up. There's no control in heaven, no rules in heaven, no bodies in heaven, so things like diet and proximity mean nothing at all in heaven. This is a make-believe fictitious world, just like the world in this movie is supposed to be 2019. But we must see that there is a deeper deception going on underneath the world. Most people feel there's something strange about this world. Like this world isn't really our home. But there's something that the ego has tricked us into, well make the best of it. Make the best of planet earth. Don't think too much about things that are beyond this world. Very much based on survival. Okay, back to the movie. Okay, he has tricked them into believing he had a chip fry so he can go explore more of his environment. And this is why all of us together today can identify with being a spiritual seeker. There's something about this world that seems strange so we explore what is beyond this world. We read spiritual books, we may meditate, have a prayer practice. Maybe we meet somebody who is extremely happy and we wonder, why are they so happy? Or we meet somebody who seems to have a very easy flowing life with no cares, no concerns and we wonder, what's going on? Why are they like that? Maybe you have a near death experience or an out of body experience. Maybe you have a bunch of deja vu experiences where you think, I have seen this before. Or you have a whole bunch of synchronicities and coincidences all together and you say, oh my goodness, what's that? We start to get signs and symbols that there's something beyond this world. And in the movie our main character has discovered a bug. There are no bugs in this place. So he puts the bug in a little matchbox because he's so curious, like, how is there a bug in this very sterile, clean place with no trees, nothing to support life? And then he goes, he sneaks out to meet his friend the mechanic and he's very curious with many questions. And he looks at all the pictures of the ladies on his wall and he says, where are their clothes? There's no sexuality in his world and so he's wondering, what are these women doing without clothes on? So in the next scene we're going to see, the mechanic is going to see some things that he has never seen before. And he's wondering what's happening. Some of you in Brazil, have any of you in Brazil or Portugal gone to see John of God? Raise your hand if you've seen John of God. Well, that would be a good adventure for you. I highly, there we go, I highly recommend that. If you want to see some strange things in this world, go see John of God in Brazil. Because he kind of uses his mind and his hands to do operations without scalpels, just fingers, pulling tumors. So at this point of the movie we're going to start to see some things that show that there's something going on underneath the world that we see. So, at this point of the movie we're going to start to see some things that show that there's something going on underneath the world that we see. Because our main character is told that people are rescued from contamination and brought to this place where everyone wears white. And in this world we're told that people come into the world as they're through sexuality of a man and a woman and an egg and a sperm. Most everybody believes that. But again there's something underneath this world that's happening that is not seen with the physical eyes. No one really is quite sure how they got in this strange place. Okay, we're back to the movie. So how many of you have seen the Matrix? Okay, in the Matrix human beings are grown, harvested and grown. So that their electric energy can be used to power a completely false world. And now we're seeing there's something strange happening in this world, in this movie. Because once they come out of this almost like a sack or embryo, they're forced to breathe and called a product. Isn't that interesting to use the word product? How does it relate to this world that we're living in? Corporations make products. And the human beings are the consumers of the products. But sometimes governments and corporations treat people like products. When they interview you for a job it's like they're interviewing you for as a product. How much education do you have? What's your work experience? They're going to pay you money but they're going to buy you and buy your skills and abilities. So I would say even in our world everybody that we see all seven billion are products of the ego that are basically bought and sold. In the days of the slaves the people were bought and sold. And nowadays the companies buy your skills. They buy your time and they think they own you. And very much human beings are like products. Products of imagination, products of ego projections. So we're going to have to start to take a look at this idea as we go into this movie. What if everything I believe about my personality self is a product of the past? What if this character that I believe I am is completely fictitious and has no basis in reality? That would explain a lot of the fear and guilt and frustration. If I identify myself as a product and God created me as a spirit, that's a big difference. That's a call to wake up and let go of this product thinking. So let's see what happens to our main character now. Okay, we knew there was something fishy about this world. The people in the world want to win the lottery so they can go to the island, a wonderful place in the future. But they aren't so happy when they seem to be murdered so that their body parts or baby can be used for some other reason other than the island. When the pregnant woman is murdered we see the baby is taken away and it's handed to her. It looks like the same person so there must be some kind of duplicate going on here. She doesn't go with her baby to the island, she doesn't even get to hold her baby. The baby is taken away immediately for some other purpose. And the big ethics, dark weather, he's so happy to be going to the island and they're just cutting open his chest so that they can take his liver out and kill him and take his liver. How would you feel if you found out that the purpose of your life on earth was just so that you could be killed and your body parts used for some other purpose? Would that be very positive? Okay, I'm going to tell you the same thing, a version of it is going on in earth in this world and I'm going to tell you how. You will never look at your wife the same, your husband, your child, your pet, your little pet cat or pet dog after what I tell you is happening. Do you think you've got a life in this world, a little time to spend between birth and death, do whatever you want to do, enjoy the good things of life before you die? God didn't create this world, the ego projected this world and it made all the bodies and all the environment that surrounds these bodies. If you believe you were born from a mother and a father and have been living a real life, these are memory implants from the ego, it's total fabrication. You think you're an adult now and that you actually had a childhood, a real childhood with a real mom and dad, real childhood memories, an inner child, nope, it's all memory implants. You think you had an education, you learned how to speak a language or multiple languages, that you actually grew up in a world and environment that was real, it's not true. In the matrix, the machines grew the human beings and harvested them for their energy to run the fake world, in this movie, people are grown and harvested, not rescued from the contamination, they're grown and they're harvested just for their babies and their body parts. You'll see why as we watch this movie. And how does that relate to this world, earth that we live in? The ego projected this world, this planets and all the planets and the ego is growing all the bodies, yes, they aren't actually unique human lives, it's the ego is growing the bodies, projecting them and the ego teaches you, you have a private mind with private thoughts. And you can learn how to be a good worker and a good product in the gross national product of your country. You are not a free human being at all. You are, the body is a product of the ego. The personality self is a product of the ego. Everything you've ever learned in school and from your parents is a product of the ego. This is the ego's linear world and it's just using the concept of human beings to perpetuate itself. To perpetuate the belief in the separation from God. Every concept you believe about yourself is part of this deep deception. If you look around the world you see cities, you see mountains, you see oceans. The sun shining in the sky, the moon at night, the stars in the sky, it's all a trick. It's all an artificial environment and God has nothing to do with any of it. Everything of this cosmos is temporary and Spirit is eternal, has no beginning, no end. So we're going to go back to the movie and watch our main character. Because he believed he knew what was happening. He was wearing white and he was working on the tubes, doing a job. And he had a nice blonde friend in Scarlett Johansson, he thought. She thinks she's going to the island, but he has just discovered there is no island. As a human being you think you're going to the future. But I'm going to tell you something. There is no future. It's just a trick. Everything you imagine is in the future, is just a trick in the mind. And if you can hear what I'm saying right now, you will do everything in your power to find the Holy Instant. Because the Holy Instant is the escape from this trick. Are you working a job to save money for the future? Do you have investments to plan for your future? Do you have food in your refrigerator and in your kitchen to prepare for the future? Are you attending classes at the university to get a degree for your future? Are you dreaming that you'll meet your soulmate in the future? Do you think you'll read and practice the course of miracles well enough to have enlightenment in the future? That's the island. That's your own island. And there is no island. Jesus wants you to drop the whole thing right now. The course of miracles is only about opening to the Holy Instant and nothing more. So I know some of you were shocked when the panel started talking about leaving things behind in this world. Leave your career, leave your family. Were you shocked by that? Oh, you'll see what this movie is about. It's showing you that there is no future. If you follow where we're going with this movie, you'll see that you as a human being have no future. You and your partner have no future. You and your friends have no future. And that ambition is a trick of the ego. Maybe you thought you'd have more money in the future. More sex in the future. More sex in the future. Yes, more possessions in the future. A better body in the future. A worse body in the future. It's all a trick. It's all the same. You have a voice that's in your mind called the ego. It tells you you're special. You want to go to the future. But it never tells you there is no future. This game of linear time goes nowhere. So instead of being concerned about what will happen when you die, recognize that if you are thinking of the past or the future, you are dead. Now. If you are addicted to the past or the future, you are like a zombie right now. So this is what A Course in Miracles is about. You have the Holy Incident on one hand, and Zombieville and Cloneland on the other. Will you activate the power of now? The Eckhart Tolleys talks about? Or will you choose to be the zombie? A walking dead. Now these ideas may sound radical. Watch the movie with me and you tell me. Okay, back to the movie. The ego does not want you to escape from its world. If you start thinking of yourself as more than a product, the ego is very concerned. If you think you may have a spiritual reality that is inside your heart, then the ego is terrified of you escaping from its world. Dr. Merrick is acting out the ego for us. He comes upstairs, he finds all the people are laughing, and he's very serious. He has them play it very slowly and he realized that there is a product that is loose, not where he's supposed to be in the system. How does that relate to this world? How does it relate to Earth and its history? Well, about 2,000 years ago there was a man named Jesus, and he realized he wasn't a product of time and space. He realized that his true identity was still a perfect creation of God. Now if I ask you who were the parents of Jesus, what would you say? Mary and Joseph? No. Because Jesus realized he wasn't a product of this planet or this world. The trick is to believe that you have two parents, duality. The truth is there's only one parent, and that's God, and that's spirit. We are a creation called Christ that comes from a spirit parent called God. So if somebody asks you where were you born, if you believe you're a product of this world, you're going to talk about biological parents in your history. But if you wake up and realize who you really are, you will know for sure that you're a creation of God, and you are not a product at all. God does not create products. God doesn't create men or women. God knows nothing of this projected world, because God is pure spirit, pure love, pure light. And so Jesus was the first to realize he was not a product of time. He said, before Abraham was, I am. And that's what A Course in Miracles is all about. You can't be a product of time and a creation of God, because God did not create time. And so Jesus was the first to realize this profound fact. And just like Dr. Merrick, the ego was not too happy with Jesus. The ego wanted Jesus dead. The ego was saying, shut that man up. How dare there be a product who has escaped this world who remembers who he really is, the spirit. And so the ego had him crucified and was very afraid when Jesus seemed to rise from the tomb. Because no one had ever done that before. The angels made a new product just so it could speak and say, I'm not a product at all. So now that our main character has realized that there is no island, he knows that his whole world and his whole society is just one big lie, one big trick. And just like with Jesus, the ego is going to try to shut him down. But he is holding the hand of his friends, Scarlett Johansson. And he's taking her and they're just running to escape. This is the beginning of the spirit using relationship to transcend the matrix. When we join in purpose, we take the hand of our brother or our sister. We have a new purpose for the world. And that is to escape the ego and its projected world. To go beyond all the limitations and all of the beliefs of this world. Now in the movie, Scarlett is shocked. I think her name is Delta, something to Delta. She is shocked, Jordan to Delta is shocked by what's happening. She woke up in her pretty white bed. She thought, oh, today I go to the island. But now her friend, Lincoln Six Echo, has grabbed her hand and said, come with me, we're getting out of here. What would you do if Jesus came to your bed and said, let's get out of here? If he walked over to you and he said, here, take my hand, we're getting out of this place right now. Because this world of time and space is not our home, we need to leave now. What would you say? I've got some clothes in the dryer. No, I have some children. I have to get them up and dressed and get them off to school, Jesus. Do you know Jesus, I have a job and if I don't show up at work today, they could fire me? Oh, wait a minute, my wife's in the next room. I have to go tell her. You wait a minute, Jesus. I've been working a lot of years. I've saved a lot of money in the bank. Can I go withdraw some of my money before we leave? If Jesus said, no, we can leave this instant. You don't have to fool around with anything else. Just drop everything and come follow me. Because that's exactly what he said 2,000 years ago to the apostles. Drop everything and follow me now. That's exactly what he said. And they said the same thing. Oh, I've got a family. I'm a fisherman. I've got fishing to do today. They had to make a decision. He just looked into their eyes with all the love of God and said, follow me. And he thought the kingdom of heaven is at hand. A hand is very, very close. A hand is not in the future. He wasn't telling you to have a better future. He was saying, let's drop all this ego business right now. Now in a course of miracles, he says, you're going to have to train your mind. For only one purpose, the holy instant right now. So don't be fooled by the trick that you can hold on to your little projection and wake up to the kingdom of heaven. You cannot hear this from many course of miracles teachers. But I'm telling you straight, if you hear what I'm saying, the Holy Spirit wants to guide you in a completely different direction from your past. The Holy Spirit will all use all the symbols that the ego made to free your mind. This is the same message that Morpheus taught in the Matrix. He told Neo, I'm here to free your mind. So let's get back to the movie and see what happens to our main characters. Because if they can escape, maybe we can too. If they don't believe in a future island anymore, maybe we'll stop believing in a future as well. And maybe we'll stop doing meaningless things in this world for the future and realize that heaven is now. Jesus is saying something in my ear right now. I'm calling you out of the world. Leave behind everything you think you know. Leave behind everything that you've learned. Leave behind the self-concept that was made by the ego. Leave your family, sell all your possessions. Hold on to nothing. Trust the Holy Spirit. Go on an inward journey with the Holy Spirit. And don't look back. If you look back you will turn into a pillar of salt. You will freeze in a self-concept that is not your identity. I am calling you out of the world. Amen. What have they fallen into now? They've been on the run in the surface and then they've dropped down into this very dark place where all the bodies are programmed with false memories. I think Carl Jung calls this the unconscious mind, the shadow. They've dropped down to something that they've never seen before. The programming of the ego and the unconscious mind. All these images and memories being programmed into the mind. The whole projected world is being invented. And if you listen closely you can hear the ego saying you're special. In this dark place the ego keeps saying you are special. You want to go to the island. It's conditioning the mind to believe that there is a future paradise to repopulate the world. It's a story of contamination and sin and terrible things. The stuff that we've all heard from our parents and our religions for all these years, the same thing, programming. You better behave or you'll go to hell. God only likes good little boys and good little girls. If you're bad you're part of the contamination. There's a hope in the future you could be a good person and go to a good place. But the island is always in the future. The Holy Spirit is going to teach us that we are love and light right now. So just like our main characters we do have to drop down and we have to face the unconscious mind. You cannot be one of these people that's a coarse and miracle student always talking about love and light. Always talking about joy and happiness and gratitude. Until you do your shadow work. And that means hide nothing from the unconscious mind from Jesus. The only way you escape this world is by releasing the unconscious thoughts and beliefs. And you may tell me you are grateful for your children, for your jobs, for all the things in the matrix. You may even say I'm grateful I have a body. But you don't know what gratefulness is. Until you see the unreality of the body in the world. You just have a faintest little glimmer of gratitude. As long as you believe you are a body, a man or a woman. As long as you believe you have feet that stand on solid ground. As long as you count the minutes and the hours and the days and the weeks. As long as you believe that communication is only in words. You have no clue of how deep this goes. Your eyes are moving back and forth reading a coarse in miracles. Trying to grasp the concepts of a coarse in miracles. But you will have no experience of true freedom. The spirit is truly free. But the human being is a construct that is never free. Now some of you can relate to the chase scene that is going on in the movie. Many of us have felt like we are on the run in this world. There are other characters that are always asking demanding things from us. The government demands you pay taxes. Your body seems to need air and food and water. And so do the children. So do the animals. This is a world of need and dependency. Everybody that participates in the matrix has lots of needs and lacks. And this crazy world of need and lack has nothing to do with God. God is a pure extension of love and light. So let's watch very carefully to see what happens to our two characters. It seems like the police in their world are trying to kill them. And they are running for their lives. Because they have discovered that their whole world is not what they thought it was. That it was just one lie based on another lie. And now their whole motive for living is gone. Because now he sees there is no island. And I think he's begin to question that if there even is a contamination. Maybe this whole idea of contamination and sin is a big lie too. Maybe we've been so afraid of sin and it's a big lie. Maybe God doesn't want to punish us. Maybe God actually loves us as spirit. And if we drop all this human being craziness we could actually know our true self as spirit. And I know there are some course teachers that say you don't have to change anything in your world at all. And there is some truth that you must change your mind. But what if you are so addicted to the familiar? What if everything that surrounds you seems to be very cozy and comfortable? And you're identified with the body and you're also identified with a few other bodies. Maybe you seem to have a house or an apartment and you say this is my house. This is my wife, my husband, my child, my country. Could be Brazil or Portugal or United States. What if it's all made up in your mind? What if you've never lived in Brazil ever? Never lived in Portugal. Never inhabited a body. Just false memories. What if everything is the mind? And Jesus is saying let go of these false ideas in your mind. God did not create any of these false ideas that you believe in. Then you would be open to maybe escaping this prison of the mind. And this ego that tells you who you are and what you are and where you are. Because we can't give lip service to a Course in Miracles. If we say oh the Course is true and one day in the future I will understand the Course. Jesus says no the Course is just a book of symbols that I am reaching you with so that you can escape the matrix. And eventually you have to forget the book and everything else about this world. You even have to forget that you're a Course in Miracle student. He says simply do this, be still. Lay aside all thoughts of what you are and what God is. Do not bring with you one thing the past is true. One thing the past is thought. One thing that you remember from anything. Forget this world. Forget this Course. And come with open arms unto your God. So I'm very interested to see what's going to happen to our characters in the movie. Because we are taking the journey with them. They have just discovered that their whole world is a trick. And they're running as fast as they can to get away from what seems to be the attack. But they're just on the very beginning of their journey. Just like those that are here this weekend and on this broadcast. It's like everyone is a preschooler sitting on Jesus' lap. And saying holy Jesus this is deep. Just a baby on the spiritual journey. I thought I knew something. If you don't feel like that now you will feel like it during this movie. Welcome to infancy. Okay let's see what happens to our characters in the movie. Okay, very good. We'll go back to our system here. So they've just made it out of this first construct. And within the construct the ego has explained away their absence. Just like in the Truman Show the ego always has a rationale that suits its own purposes. Because it's trying to keep the lie going. So the ego tells all the people in the white world they've been contaminated. They're under quarantine. It can't tell them that they've escaped. Because that would just encourage everybody else to escape too. So the ego is growing all these bodies just for their body parts and babies. But it's not telling the truth even about the the eggnates. It's just saying that they're just they're not human. Because no one would stand for human beings being killed for body parts. So the ego is layer upon layer of deception. The ego always induces fear and guilt. Okay, very good. Because the ego is the death wish. You can't make friends with it. You can't trust it. It always lies. It always wants you to remain limited and small. It must have you convinced that you are a product. Because if you realize that you are dreaming this whole dream you could then accept a new purpose for this dream. The Holy Spirit's purpose of forgiveness. Then you could really see that it's all false. It wouldn't matter what the dream characters do or say, they're dream characters. Hitler was a dream character. Mother Teresa was a dream character. Saddam Hussein was a dream character. St. Francis is a dream character. Are you willing to forgive all the dream characters and see that there was never any hate in the dream or love in the dream? There was never any peace in the dream or war. Dreams are not real. And the only way that you can wake up from the dream is to first see it as a dream. You can say to yourself, I am watching a dream. Oh look, it's a dream hand. Dream fingers. Oh, it's a dream glass. It has a dream water. Oh, some dream tea. And a red dream cup. Now think of your husband or your wife. I have a dream husband. A dream wife. Look at this, I'm in a dream room. I am looking at a dream world. Even A Course in Miracles is just a dream book. Look, the dream figure is reading the dream book. You have to think of your daytime life the same as your nighttime dreams. Jesus tells us all our time is spent in dreaming. You are not a dream figure. You are the dreamer of the dream. If you believe you are a personality self, surrounded by other real personality selves, you will not be able to grasp forgiveness. Before you can grasp forgiveness, you have to see that you are the dreamer of the dream. Because if you believe you are a dream figure, you will always be at the mercy of other dream figures in the dream world. You will say to Jesus, I'm not coming home right now. I've got too much dream stuff to do. But you don't really have dream stuff. You are the dreamer of the dream stuff. And if you don't believe what I'm talking about, then read up on this in A Course in Miracles, because Jesus is telling you the very same thing. This is part of the mind training. So as we rejoin the movie now, our main characters are now out in the heat in a very desert-like construct. And at this point, they still believe that they are real people. I'm looking at you all on the screen, and I want you to be honest. Are you identifying with our characters? Do you still believe you are a real person? Because that's the problem. Remember, you can't be a dreamer and a person. You can't be both. So this is why we watch our characters go into their next phase. That's why they have a next phase. They still believe they are people. But let's see what happens. Okay, congratulations. You have made it through part of day one with me. And if you're following the movie, they've just discovered that they're clones. They've been told they don't really have a real past. It's just memory implants. That they have these people called sponsors who pay for them to be grown as insurance policies. And that they apparently have escaped from the parts factory. And now they're thinking, now what? He's just saying, go get lost. Have a little amnesia. Just forget about everything you've seen so far because it's not a good story. So I wanted to use the last few minutes to talk about this world again, the world that we seem to live in. Now you may be sitting there going, now what? What is David going to say next? Is he going to want me to look at the idea that this body that I think I am is a clone? That this body and this personality was just made up. It's just like a make-believe copy of something else. It doesn't have a reality. And if this body that I'm looking at, that I thought was me, is really just a clone, it's really just a copy. What is it a copy of? It's the copy of a thought. And this thought is not a creation of God. Why? Why is that so? Because God did not create body thoughts. God creates his spirit. So this is very important. When I sat with you yesterday and I had the panel around me, I said that in order to awaken you have to let go of all the thoughts in your mind. And this means to see that the thoughts of time and space of past and future. They are not real thoughts. They are just body thoughts. But as long as you believe the body thoughts are true, you will also believe that the world is true. So our first discussion I talked with Francis and Suzanne and Lisa. And we talked about leading spouses behind, leaving jobs and careers behind. And that might have brought us some fear for you. You might have said, oh my gosh, what's this about? Is it going to have me leave my family, my country, my house? I'm not talking about the form of things, I'm talking about the thoughts, the body thoughts. If any Course in Miracles teacher tells you you can keep the body thoughts and still know who you are as spirit. That's the ego lying to you. Just like I said, Buddha and Jesus teach you must empty the mind of all the thoughts. So this is the meaning of what I'm teaching. When Jesus called the apostles, He said, leave everything. Leave your jobs, leave your families. And the Christ said, follow me. So before I get misinterpreted as saying everyone should leave their husbands and wives and families. Hear me correctly and hear what I'm really saying. You must leave behind thoughts of husbands and wives. Thoughts of children, thoughts about the body, thoughts of food and nutrition. You must release all thoughts of time and space. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus said, blessed are the pure of heart for they shall see God. This is where a Course in Miracles is heading. You must empty your mind of all false beliefs and false thoughts and come to God with an open mind and an open heart. And then you will feel the presence of God's love. And then you will know the presence of who you truly are. In the end, a Course in Miracles is like a trampoline. It wants you to bounce and jump and leap. Leap back into spirit. Don't let the tethers of body thoughts hold your mind down. And try to convince you that you are a human product. In the movie, the products have escaped. And they still are confused about their identity. But they know intuitively they have to go and meet their sponsors. Now this means you must go into your mind and meet your sponsor. And I would say this, that your true sponsor is the Holy Spirit. When you meet that sponsor, your problems are over. When you listen to that sponsor, you will have happiness and joy in your heart. So thank you so much for part one. I look forward to seeing you tomorrow as we go to meet the sponsors of the ego first and then we will meet the light. First we will meet our attack thoughts. We will forgive them namaste. And then we will go right into the light and set all of the captives free. Because when you recognize the light, all of the earth and all the people of the earth are healed. It is all about remembering your identity as the Christ. See you tomorrow. Beautiful. Very good.
