Thunderwhackers #1 – Saturday Workshop – May 5, 2012

#1 – The Simplicity of Salvation.

The course is simple! This is something we are told many times. Simply be aware of the block to Love’s presence, however it manifests, and turn to Jesus or the Holy Spirit and hand it over. However while this is the simplicity of what we are being asked to do, it is not something we can rush in to before we have done the work required. To do so is to allow the cherished forms of our defenses against doing this truly to remain, undisturbed and untouched. We need to be willing to see the purpose behind our “little” resistances, to see what they stand for, and thus against, if we are to make a meaningful choice or just swap one illusion for another.

Easter: What price the Pearl? – Sat Workshop April 7, 2012

And now there is a vague unanswered question, not yet “explained.” What is this precious thing, this priceless pearl, this hidden secret treasure, to be wrested in righteous wrath from this most treacherous and cunning enemy? It must be what you want but never found. And now you “understand” the reason why you found it not. For it was taken from you by this enemy, and hidden where you would not think to look. He hid it in his body, making it the cover for his guilt, the hiding place for what belongs to you. Now must his body be destroyed and sacrificed, that you may have that which belongs to you. His treachery demands his death, that you may live. And you attack only in self-defense. T-23.II.11.

The motive of the “angry mob”, perhaps.
My motive as I wend my way through life, “No Way!”
Well…”Yes Way!”

A look at our desire to elevate, to hate and to crucify.

How can the Course help?

(A possible answer to someone asking about the Course.)

First and foremost you need to understand that the course is a spiritual path/process that is concerned with the inner you.
This inner you is not something that you are normally aware of.
All the difficulties you seem to face or experience are a consequence of not being aware of this inner you. Read the rest of this entry »

God in Every Detail

The Beloved in every detail. God in every detail. In every sound, every sight, every face.

Yes, we made this “place” as a place to hide. To make specialness real so that we could be special. To be a thing in and unto itself, held apart from the rest. I am a person, say and not a rock or a lizard. And certainly not the foolish person next door! Read the rest of this entry »

What is it for?

Jesus asks us to ask this question in relation to everything.

This question becomes particularly relevant when we are faced with a decision. The Course is, however, radical in it’s understanding of our ability to make meaningful decisions about anything. A careful reading of Lesson 24: “I do not perceive my own best interests” and Read the rest of this entry »
