Purpose at the Monastery – David Hoffmeister talks about allowing healing of the mind that removes the blocks to knowing our true purpose. Our goal, function, purpose, and lives are all guided by our desire for inner peace. And we are given blessed, inspired ways to collaborate with the Holy Spirit and pour our whole hearts into being of service!
How Can We Escape This Fictional World? – David explores the topic of virtual reality as it relates to experiencing the world. If this world is a simulation, a fiction of make-believe memories and images, and if this world is generated by subconscious beliefs and thoughts, what is the escape to reality? David explains that guidance or intuition is the key to the steps to awakening from the simulation called the time-space cosmos.
What Is the Forgiven World? – In this online retreat, David shares that the forgiven world is being in the Presence of God’s Love, to be in the present moment. Imagine how happy you would be if you didn’t perceive any error. No matter what anybody said or did, you would still be in the divine flow. You would have no need to correct anybody, no need to fix anybody. You would have no need to change any person, place, or circumstance. You would have no need to please anybody either. To be in that experience, we have to be with the Spirit, and when we open our hearts to that vision, we can truly feel that everything works together for good.
The illusion that you have any control over your actions lies at the core of your belief and desire for autonomy/separation from God. Feelings like “I have control issues” or “you have control issues” are really expressions of the one mistaken belief in separation, the illusion of control. Relief from suffering comes from an acceptance that the illusion of voluntary control was not created by God and is therefore impossible.
