There is an escape hatch in our mind that is accessible at any moment we choose when we stop allowing ourselves to be deceived by the little tyrant, the ego.

How Do I Dislodge My Mind from Death? – In this opening session, David Hoffmeister emphasizes the importance of focusing on the correction in the mind and not on the errors of the dream. He employs the analogy of a caged pet bird, drawing a parallel to the sleeping Son of God, to vividly depict the collective amnesia we experience and our forgetfulness of our true home in Heaven. David subsequently discusses how our perception of problems is not the issue, but rather, it’s the filter through which we view these problems that cloud our thinking. He delves into the importance of changing our mindset, including on the topic of death.
