Teaching the Holy Instant – At the beginning of this talk, David Hoffmeister discusses the concept of choice and the duality of life. We seem to live in a world of duality, where one of the primary goals is to find a life partner. We can see even that is dualistic because even a successful life match involves two, while reality involves only one.
Follow The Joy! – In this talk, David Hoffmeister discusses the intuitive guidance that helps us let go of the personality-self. This guidance can be experienced through interactions with people, signs, symbols, and dreams. The world is an impossible situation, and something inside us jumps for joy when we are clueless about it. This state of joy can lead to laughter and synchronization, which are signs of awakening. By focusing on what truly matters and letting go of past interpretations, we can experience great happiness and joy!
Bringing It All to the Holy Spirit – David Hoffmeister starts off by sharing about the power of music to keep the mind in alignment and feeling high. Music is a higher form of communication that goes directly to our hearts, bypassing concept analysis and intellectual maneuverings. David emphasizes the importance of understanding that our union is in our mind and that we share the same Mind with God.
Strawberry Fields Forever – David Hoffmeister ends this year’s Strawberry Fields Festival by talking about the purpose of life, the importance of seeing the world holistically, with faith and trust that everyone will play their part perfectly. The ego attempts to divide the world into roles and categories, organizing it based on a false preference system. There’s no order of difficulty in miracles and no hierarchy of illusions. The focus is on letting Jesus take us deeper into our minds to see the world as a whole.
Praying Without Ceasing – In this talk, David Hoffmeister has a profound discussion about going deep into faith and prayer. The prayer of the heart is for purity. The prayer of the mind is to be emptied out of all but God! Beyond the words, beyond time and space, beyond the body and the five senses, the call to God is everything!
