No Worries, Mate! – In this talk, David Hoffmeister begins with the expanding prison ministry. The prisoners are a very receptive audience to the idea of innocence, and when they get released or paroled, they are ready to go and proclaim the good news. The Holy Spirit, the spirit of joy, is the key to bringing these teachings to life. The demonstration of these teachings points to the moment of release and the Kingdom of Heaven. As Jesus said, the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand, and we must continue proclaiming this good news of innocence. As a popular saying in Australia goes, “No worries, mate!” Our life is all about demonstrating happiness, joy, and the blessing of eternal life!

The Simplicity of Now – This moment is perfect just the way it is. It is our meanings and judgments that prevent us from experiencing the gift of fully embracing and uniting with the present moment. This is a profound teaching about time, about the illusion of past and future, and the present moment, the closest approximation to eternity.

What Is True Vision? – David Hoffmeister teaches from A Course in Miracles about true vision. He reminds us that we need to have faith in our journey to God and not judge our perception of progress on the awakening journey. The second half of the talk is opened up for a variety of questions. 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.
