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.

Is Faith Holistic? – David Hoffmeister shares how the Course is not a theology but a practical tool to allow the Holy Spirit to undo every single belief of the ego. By giving ourselves fully over to this undoing, life becomes increasingly like a very happy fairytale, where trust would settle every problem now, and in faith, nothing is ever lacking.

Joining the Great Awakening – In this short talk, David Hoffmeister shares the Joy of holy relationship and the many reflections of Love and a happy State of Mind. “In holy relationship we let the happy dream of forgiveness replace the grievances and judgments of the past. In holy relationship we live in harmony, extending the love in our hearts to everyone we meet or even think of. In holy relationship we take a step in our mind toward remembering God within. I rejoice with all of you, and extend the happy and natural State of Mind that God creates and extends.”

From Getting to True Giving – In this closing session, David Hoffmeister offers that rather than asking, What can the world give me? we are invited to ask, What can I give to the world? This opens us to see what doesn’t fulfill us and to see what does fulfill us. It also gives us a chance to admit that something has gone wrong in our mind, and it is not for us to figure out, rather it is for us to ask for the correction from the Holy Spirit!
