 Yeah, you know Buddha talked about empty your mind and people and sometimes empty has a bad connotation You know like oh empty. How are you feeling? But then when you hear our well said oh, I'm empty. I'm empty. I meant you just like thrilled like she's just state of mind And it's it's a compliment actually she means it, you know as a capital self-complement So you can't imagine how emptiness would be because that's the thing, you know They just my imagination running away with me It's the imagination is the realm of the ego where it just it just takes the mind off on fantasies and There's an interesting definition from Jesus in the course on fantasy because you know Freud talked about fantasies and Psychologists do Jesus says Fantasy is the attempt to make false Associations and obtain pleasure from them the interesting definition from Jesus Christ on Fantasy and then you can start to say hmm. Okay. I want to be real. I Want to know reality. I want to be authentic I don't want to be chasing fantasies pipe dreams trying to make things up and and Following this all the circuitous routes of the ego so You know, I think the way that the spirit works is the spirits like Okay, the ego made up the imagination the spirit created eternity Spirit is eternity is reality and imagination's perception is egoic In the course of it it says consciousness Is the domain of the ego? A lot of times spiritual teachers will talk about consciousness or Christ consciousness. Jesus is no Consciousness is the domain of the ego. Whoa Thank you very much here That's fantasy as well. I didn't know consciousness was fantasy But he's saying, you know, it needs to be trained and purified and then you Come fully conscious and then you become aware of reality, you know, it makes sense if you follow it along So for us, you know, we I would say the more you get into your purpose the more you get into forgiveness or atonement or Call it what you will salvation resurrection peace of mind Then that leads you inward to the kingdom of heaven within it takes you beyond the fantasies But the Holy Spirit will use the imagination The Holy Spirit will use the imagination It's not like just because the ego made it up doesn't mean the Holy Spirit can't use it And that's what makes this journey so practical. That's what I love about the course You know the workbooks designed to use what the ego made words symbols of symbols twice removed from reality and all of the things That is believed to be real in this world can be completely used. And in fact, we just did a talk I think our last couple talks were use of symbols on the speaker. I didn't bring my my cards I have business cards that are in these books, but Armelle and I sitting there and a little ocean and a little eye the mini eye coming out a mini me I You know when you drop a pebble and it just comes a little eye trying to arise There they are Greg is filming this is it my my little miniature business cards But I was gonna hand right at the back because we record all these and you can listen to them around the world ACIM.me it's not kind of just you know close your eyes and and Think of oneness. It's it's like let the spirit use what the ego made to undo what the ego made That to me that's just such a practical path. You can be an inspire And that can be a form of fantasy also. Yes, that be used by spirit. Yeah. Yeah In fact, that's what I feel like my whole life has been dedicated to the inspirational use of symbols For the past 25 years with the course because once I was really got a good discernment there Feeling my heart opening getting that joy pouring through that love then It was like wow, this is fantastic. How can I serve the whole and music has poured through? books poetry Movie watchers guide to enlightenment. I love movies. Holy Spirit said great. Let's make a book Self-realization enlightenment using Hollywood using the movies or I like golf Okay, my meditation became a golf meditation. I was out of the golf course. I was really getting into the zone or tennis Basketball baseball all of those things use it use it use it Relationships as I've said instead of trying to go egoically trying to go on a hunt to find the one In form it was more Okay, we got a lot of playmates here on planet earth And it's going to be playful and joyful if I don't hold them to expectations if we can collaborate So I love collaboration. I even use a lot of movies. I do a lot of movie gatherings where I'll use There's a documentary on George Harrison from the Beatles on HBO And I just adored his collaboration He was he lived such a collaborative life not only with the fan for with the Beatles, but all his whole life He was collaborating with rock stars. He had all kinds of friends and all walks of life He traveled to India Rami Shankar opened up to new cultures Sitar playing the sitar playing new instruments It's good friends with a formula one race car driver Jackie Stewart Monty Python, you know Monty Python's filming life of Brian, I think it was down in Africa, Tennessee or something and they ran out of money and actually The one who is sponsoring their movie found out that they some of their scenes that they thought they were poking fun at Jesus With life of Brian and so the sponsor pulled the plug on the whole movie and George Harrison mortgaged his house in England so life of Brian could be completed such a big heart So I gathered a group of people together and I got the movie On George Harrison and I said let's get some Holy Spirit commentary going on this great life of Collaboration and we streamed it. We actually did a live streaming program kind of me speaking on different aspects Of that because we're really big on collaboration, but that again is inspiration. We're we're really big on inspiration
