 Mystics and Saints, Saint John the Cross, Dark Knight of the Soul, and if you read the literature of the saints who have gone for this, you know, it's pretty dark. It's more dark than it is beatific, it's dark, but that's not meant to scare you away from the journey, it's just meant to kind of show you that you will have to go through the darkness to the light, but you're not alone, you definitely aren't alone. That's the whole message of the Course. Take my hand, I'll walk with you, I'll go down into the chambers of the mind. I am with you always, you know, the reassurance is there, that the journey to God cannot fail. You know, God would not give us a plan, God would not give us the means to awaken without an assurance, without a guarantee that the plan will succeed. That salvation is guaranteed, and it's of the mind. We don't have to try to save souls, we don't try to save any people, we don't have to save the animals, we don't have to save the planet, we don't have to save Mother Earth, it's kind of good when you really look at it, it gets easier and easier when you start to realize you don't have to save anything, salvation is for the mind the sleeping mind, and it's only achieved through peace. That eliminates a lot of things too, we don't have to get into anything else. You'll find here we're not into like, okay, eat a holy diet, and do the holy exercise routine, and look at the holy rocks on the holy south side of the canyon, you know, and bow down and pray, you know, on the holy grass, we just don't, we're not into spiritualizing matter. It was great, Elizabeth was talking to me today, what was the name of the people down around 1160, the Cathars, she told me about the Cathars, and living in the Pyrenees, and what was the name of the castle? It was so funny, I went to my Google and was like, oh, and I was reading about the Cathars, and they're pretty much known as a Gnostic group, and non-duality, there was, there was different of the Cathars, they did say that there was part of the Cathars that believed that there was this, this, this force or this thing that made the earth, it wasn't God, it was great, if you imagine 1160, God did not create the world, of course the Catholic Church burned 200 with these people. Almost, I don't know, they burned 200 at the last stand, but within the course of two centuries, all of them had to disappear or convert, they burned quite a few. You convert the Catholicism or you're killed, you're burned or killed, and there was, the core teachings, you know, was the world's not real, and then I read on about their views on the crucifixion, they, they did not see the crucifixion, they went further than denying the crucifixion. They said, it is impossible for the Son of God to incarnate on earth. 1160, you're taking the virgin birth out with that baby, you're taking, you're taking the whole theology out with one undercut, not that they went after the crucifixion, but they went after, that is an impossible, it is impossible for the Son of God to incarnate on earth. That's the teachings of the Course of Miracles, that's the teachings of Christian science, that's the teachings of non-duality, and talk about unpopular, we're talking that's so unpopular that they burn them all and then they get the final 200 and they give them a choice, it's not like just, like, like Jonah Vark, you know, put you up there and we'll burn you, it's, we'll give you a choice, you convert to Catholicism and you're free to go, or you keep talking about that stuff that you're talking about, you can just walk right into that fire over there and 200 of them walked right into the fire. Now that's faith. They're singing as they enjoy going into it. They're teaching philosophy and demonstration inspired St. Francis. St. Francis built his order a century later over in Italy, St. Francis, because some of you might have seen the story where his mother was actually French and his father was a merchant and was into dealing with fabrics and the Pyrenees and this area was where he got a lot of his fabrics. So St. Francis found out about this non-dualistic group living this way. So, and here you walk into our monastery, you see St. Francis there. So you can see these symbols just reverberate throughout history. It's said that, it didn't matter to them that it failed at the time, because they said it was like a seed that one day would, like the rose, move the song of the rose, the seed one day would blossom. So the symbol there for reincarnation is, is that we're talking about exposing and purifying and clearing. They could see that that was a process over time, not limited to one lifetime, and yet I come back to Wikipedia. They believe that the Son of God could not incarnate. So the reincarnation was more of, of the Holy Spirit's use of time to unwind, literally to unwind, however long it takes to unwind from time, from the belief in time. Beautiful, you know, when you think of it so high, so beautiful and high, that's, that's all that we really are looking for now are symbols of transcendence. Sharing the peace, shining the truth, singing and soaring in you.
