“Unmasking Illusions: A Journey Beyond Linear Time and Specialness” - A Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister

“Unmasking Illusions: A Journey Beyond Linear Time and Specialness” - A Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister
"Unmasking Illusions: A Journey Beyond Linear Time and Specialness" - A Movie Commentary by David HoffmeisterDavid's movie commentary dismantles our belief and perception of linear time, private thoughts, and people-pleasing. Private thoughts are defense mechanisms against the Holy Instance, love, light, and simplicity. Jesus teaches that the present moment is the closest approximation of eternity, and all mystics and saints emphasize being present and bringing God's love. However, the linear world of time and space is like a mask pulled over, made out of specialness.Jesus explains that specialness is the ego, and specialness made this world. This goes beyond the concept of special relationships and what many people think about special relationships. Everything that seems to exist independently is specialness.David's movie commentary helps us disassemble our faulty perceptions and show that things we assume, are unreal. Jesus teaches us that God did not make trees, the world, or time. He also explains that nothing real can be threatened, and therein lies the peace of God.The day's lesson is that illusions cannot satisfy God's Son. Carol King's song "Only Love is Real" illustrates this point. The movie commentary reminds us that everything else is an illusion, and understanding the truth about the world is crucial for overcoming our faulty perceptions and embracing God's love.To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded online, September 28, 2024, at La Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.
Unlocking the Truth:  The Power of No Private Thoughts - A Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister

Unlocking the Truth: The Power of No Private Thoughts - A Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister
Unlocking the Truth:  The Power of No Private Thoughts - A Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David HoffmeisterThe course teaches that thoughts are either extended or projected, with God extending creative thoughts of pure spirit.Jesus teaches that we have real thoughts but are unaware of them. These real thoughts are pure spirit and thoughts we think with God. As long as we have private minds, a belief in private thoughts becomes like a dense cloud covering the real thoughts. However, the light remains, and the real thoughts continue on. When we become aware of our real thoughts, we become aware of the Christ thoughts, which are pure, loving, and have no distortions.Projections, or ego thoughts, can create a private world that cannot be shared, like a nightmare. Jesus calls this projection "littleness" or "madness," it is expected to describe these private thoughts as judgments, grievances, evaluations, and comparisons. Jesus teaches that if you believe you have private thoughts, you are judging yourself.This movie workshop features a new format of movie-making: three movies are combined to create an experience beyond mere entertainment.To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded online, August 24, 2024, at La Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.
“Witnesses of Unity: Unveiling the Fallacy of Perception” A Tribe of Christ Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister

“Witnesses of Unity: Unveiling the Fallacy of Perception” A Tribe of Christ Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister
“Witnesses of Unity: Unveiling the Fallacy of Perception” A Tribe of Christ Movie Commentary by David HoffmeisterThe Bible emphasizes that what goes around comes around, and the belief system in the world of idols is rooted in the belief in the ego, which is the belief in lack and scarcity. This belief leads to twisted ego laws, such as reciprocity and giving to get.The movie commentary also highlights the importance of understanding that all we give is given to ourselves, leading to the return to creation and divine innocence. The mind is always under perfect divine providence, but it can project error onto the world, forgetting the oneness of the kingdom of heaven. The universal principle of giving and receiving is the same, and the real question is what we are offering.The movie commentary aims to show us the fallacy of the perceptual world, where things seem different and have different purposes than one unified purpose of forgiveness. It argues that the only way to come to the truth is to draw witnesses of sharing, giving, caring, and equality. The equality of the miracle shows that everyone is equally blessed, loved, and equal. The movie presents examples of the getting mechanism, greed, and control and contrasts the experiences of brothers and sisters worldwide who put these principles into practice. By contrasting greed and grace, control and sharing, our minds can make decisions that serve everyone or anything. To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded online, August 10, 2024, at La Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.
"There's really only one of us." - A Tribe of Christ Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister

"There's really only one of us." - A Tribe of Christ Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister
"There's really only one of us." - A Tribe of Christ Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister.In this movie commentary, David focuses on the unity of life. He reminds us that 'A Course in Miracles' is a radical redefinition of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, focusing on teaching only love for what is what one is. This interpretation of the crucifixion emphasizes the importance of finding love in one's life and with God. The phrase "there's really only one of us" is used to emphasize the unity of the mind, which is not limited to the five senses. The belief in separation has generated a cosmic projection of time and space with different cultures, languages, and planets. Jesus teaches that the spirit never enters the world and that the world is a screen of projections.The first lesson of the Course is "Nothing I see means anything at all." This realization can make everything we perceive, including the body and the five senses, irrelevant. The awareness of the Spirit is also important, as the Spirit doesn't die but is pure love. This awareness can set us free from the belief system of separation, allowing us to see that our mistakes, achievements, and flaws are nothing. The first lesson of the Course is a powerful reminder that we are all One and that everything we perceive is an illusion.To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded online, July 27, 2024, at La Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.
Session 4 - Strawberry Fields Festival 2024 - Morning Session with Q&A for David Hoffmeister

Session 4 - Strawberry Fields Festival 2024 - Morning Session with Q&A for David Hoffmeister
Session 4 - Strawberry Fields Festival 2024 - Morning Session with Q&A for David HoffmeisterDavid starts the session by talking about music. Music is a higher form of communication that goes directly to our hearts, bypassing concept analysis and intellectual maneuverings. It is a theme in today's activities, as it serves as the soundtrack of our experience on Earth. The movie tonight will be strong in the music and collaboration themes, as Jesus teaches us that miracles are a collaborative venture. Jesus also teaches us that the solitary journey to God fails because it is of joining and connecting.David emphasizes the importance of understanding that our union is in our minds and that we share the same mind with God. Jesus teaches us that our earthly conditions differ from the kingdom of heaven and that we long for a sense of connection, relaxation, ease, flow, and harmony. This longing is our natural condition, and Jesus tells us we long for these things because it is how we were created.Competition can hinder our connection and unity. Jesus encourages us to come together without the pressure of productivity or trying to forge a desired outcome. Instead, we should come together like in jam sessions where everyone plays their part, letting the music come through naturally without any sense of trying to direct or control it personally.Recorded on the morning of July 14, 2024, at the Living Miracles Monastery in Utah, USA
Session 1 -  “Embracing Divine Trust: A Journey from Dreams to Awakening” 🌟 Strawberry Fields Festival 2024

Session 1 - “Embracing Divine Trust: A Journey from Dreams to Awakening” 🌟 Strawberry Fields Festival 2024
Session 1 - "Embracing Divine Trust: A Journey from Dreams to Awakening" 🌟 Strawberry Fields Festival 2024 with David Hoffmeister and Jason WarwickThe opening session of the Strawberry Fields Festival 2024 starts and ends with three songs from the RISE band. David and Jason did the welcoming talk, and David felt the synchronicity with the day's lesson, which emphasizes the importance of placing the future in God's hands, a concept that requires enormous trust. This trust is crucial as we have been conditioned to learn the past and plan the future, often leading to ambition and a focus on education and jobs. Trust is the foundation of a teacher of God and allows us to relax and feel divine ease.David and Jason welcome all participants to their little experience of paradise. They first came out in 2009 and started hosting celebrations and festivals in this rural canyon. One of Eric's songs, "Let Life Unfold," reminds us to let life unfold by allowing our experiences in this world to be given to us. The prayer, "Holy Spirit, decide for God for me," encourages us to let the Holy Spirit paint a picture of our lives, letting the light beams shine through and light up the dream.Jesus tells us to go from nightmares to waking, with a transition between happy dreams and gentle waking. This process helps us to feel softer and gentler, making the struggle and challenge easier.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded, July 13, 2024, at Living Miracles Monastery, Utah, USA
“Forgiveness and Awakening:  Embracing the Holy Instant” - A Tribe of Christ Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister

“Forgiveness and Awakening: Embracing the Holy Instant” - A Tribe of Christ Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister
"Forgiveness and Awakening:  Embracing the Holy Instant" - Movie Commentary by David HoffmeisterThe Saturday Movie Workshop presents a fantastic film that opens us to the Holy Instant and God's love through relationships. It uses the metaphor of interpersonal relationships and the Holy Spirit to help us understand the truth of Life and the importance of relationships.The film uses the symbol of interpersonal relationships to take us beyond the personal perception of things and toward the vast perspective of the Holy Spirit. Right-minded seeing, which is the residence of the Holy Spirit, can only see love. When giving ourselves over to spiritual awakening, we want the perspective of the Holy Spirit, which is what forgiveness is. Jesus does not see error, and we must raise our minds to the light and cleanse our minds of erroneous ego beliefs so that we can see with the vision of Christ and the light of truth. We need the Holy Spirit and Jesus to help us separate the true from the false because human perception combines right-minded and wrong-minded perceptions.To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded, June 15, 2024, at La Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.
“Beyond Perception: A Journey to True Awakening” A Tribe of Christ Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister

“Beyond Perception: A Journey to True Awakening” A Tribe of Christ Movie Commentary by David Hoffmeister
“Beyond Perception: A Journey to True Awakening” A Tribe of Christ Movie Commentary by David HoffmeisterDavid is excited to present a new classic movie, which has won many awards. The movie highlights the importance of unlearning the perceptual world and the five senses present with it. The world is a linear nightmare that has been accepted as real, and our attempts to establish an identity and make-believe body personality are not valid. Jesus teaches that we come without a self and make one as we go along, taking on roles such as mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, and parents.The movie touches on many deep themes, such as suicide, death, memory, opportunity, autonomy, possession, ownership, control, jealousy, commitment, unlearning, discovering purpose, curiosity, independence, repression, pleasure, pain, hedonism, money, sex, poverty, abundance, philosophy, socialism, and forgiveness. With the Holy Spirit's help, we can empty our minds of false concepts, beliefs, and emotions, leading to a more fulfilling life.David also discusses ACIM Lesson 153, "In my defenselessness, my safety lies," which emphasizes the importance of staying with Jesus in the Spirit and letting go of the falsity of the ego. David hopes this movie will help address these daily urges, desires, and distractions and bring the mind back to forgiveness. Hopefully, this movie will be the last one we ever need, as it touches something profound and essential inside.To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded, June 1, 2024, at La Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.
“Awakening from the Dream: Embracing Atonement and the Illusion of Time” - A Tribe of Christ Movieworshop Commentary by David Hoffmeister

“Awakening from the Dream: Embracing Atonement and the Illusion of Time” - A Tribe of Christ Movieworshop Commentary by David Hoffmeister
"Awakening from the Dream: Embracing Atonement and the Illusion of Time" - A Tribe of Christ Movieworshop Commentary by David Hoffmeister The workbook lesson of the day, lesson 139, on accepting atonement for ourselves, is synchronized with this movie workshop, which shows the end of choice.Jesus's teachings about perception 2,000 years ago emphasize the importance of distorted perception. When our minds are asleep and when we dream of exile from God, our perception is distorted. This distorted perception leads to delusions, distortions, and fantasies, which are fiction and unreal. The defining characteristic of linear time and space is their unrealness.The ego, a tricky puff of nothingness, makes up illusions and dreams, covering itself in the unconscious mind. This complex world of time and space is temporary, constantly shifting and changing. The first change experienced was the fall from grace, as there is no such thing as change in heaven. Jesus tells us that as we move toward the light in our spiritual awakening, we still experience fear associated with every change. This fear and terror often arise when we move towards the light beneath the darkness. Jesus emphasizes that we cannot judge our advances from our retreats; we must move toward the light.To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded, May 18, 2024, at La Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.
