Yes, nearly half a million words. After decades of studying this teaching--I've read the entire FIP edition at least seven times over--I call it a myth in Christian idiom. Helen Schucman was primarily a brilliant Freudian psychologist who was secretly, but deeply moved by, the miracles of Lourdes, Catholic ritual and Baptist fervor. (More about Helen and Bill in Wapnick's biography called Absence From Felicity) ACIM practice is mostly just to read it carefully and let it transform your experience of life.
The old Buddhist in me is jumping up and down going, "Me too!". Only that which is 'empty' of real and without true existence can change as it is illusory. Reality is changeless because that is the nature of being true.
This has left me overwhelmed and immersed in truth, I am absolutely glued to this teaching from you, true light Keith that is what you are we all are limitless and oneness, Im stopping for a break with a cup of tea in the happy dream to embrace this in changelessness before I watch the rest.....xxxx
My glass is not broken Your glass could never been broken Here I will find Peace I cannot witness any sickness and if so it’s is illusion . Knowing this is the correction, thank you Keith❤
I never looked at it that way! Makes perfect sense and is very helpful. Thankyou for sharing! I really needed to hear this today....so glad I clicked on this.....God Bless
1:16:47 when you feel that down energy, guilt is coming out.......instead you sit with the emotion coming out.... you are the awareness... 1:21:43 1:21:45 wow! Simply allow the feeling... notice...you're not the emotions...you're the "noticer"
*Around **1:42:00** **_re watching a peaceful film, about butterflies and water, and feeling peaceful ... and the peace being there already_** ... I've been watching a lot of Lifetime-type films - this lets me off the hook.* *I don't have to give up watching thrillers & crime mysteries and so on. Relief!*
“ skipping through the shit with the Holy Spirit “ Amen brother 🙏I am not broken and I am not glass .. I simply AM and cease to speak . Thank you Keith always and only until forever ❤️🧽✨ 🧠 ✨🌞🏆 Your Spirit is lit 🔥 and I thank you truly
It was a wonderful session!!! Very helpful!! I always say..."Number of times over equal certainty." It works for me. That noted, I want to share that I see ACIM as being a can of beans where the look and shape of the can sometimes varies but the beans themselves remain consistent. I see Ken, Keith, David, Marianne, Stefan, Paul, Aaron, Bill, Leisa, James, Vicki and on and on as all being incredibly talented chefs that remove the beans from the can and present them in ways peculiar to them. Each chef demonstrates their preferences by what beans they like to focus their attention on. And each chef has their own batch of herbs & spices that they add to the beans in the form of analogies, metaphors, allegories and similes. I really enjoy going from chef to chef and having a heaping helping of their version of the ACIM beans! This was a most fabulous plate of beans Keith!!! Thank you.
How do you feel about thetford, the editor, being CIA? He worked on MK ultra. This is not my perception. Look it up. Literally mind control operations. None of you that are studying this want to address this.
What a (looking for the right word) but ya I love them all and their individual recipes you forgot nouk and Coleen theydo a good job on the workbook as they say let's unpack this...nice one!!! god bless us all xx
I saw your Easter broadcast and I went into a tailspin. I did not perceive love in it. I love Jesus and yes he is the Jesus of the Bible, I have been through the course,text, exercises teachers . I have had to read it do exercises again to keep going. I struggle with it wrestle with it accept it. I have accepted Jesus. He is in me and I in Him. Jesus is the same Jesus of the Bible. I am Christian unashamed. We have to believe sometimes that we do hear the voice of Holy Spirit. Please don't tell me Jesus is not the Jesus of the Bible. Set that aside and know we are loved.
"The curriculum the Course proposes is carefully conceived and is explained, step by step, at both the theoretical and practical levels. It emphasizes application rather than theory, and experience rather than theology. It specifically states that “a universal theology is impossible, but a universal experience is not only possible but necessary” (Manual, p. 77). Although Christian in statement, the Course deals with universal spiritual themes. It emphasizes that it is but one version of the universal curriculum. There are many others, this one differing from them only in form. They all lead to God in the end." From the Preface to A Course In Miracles. You do you, Dorothy. All roads take us Home to God. Only ever take what's useful to you from what someone else says and discard the rest. Our experiences and understandings will change many times as we climb the ladder. If something makes you uncomfortable, it's not for you right now. It's your inner teacher you want to get in touch with. Outer teachers are only for helping you get in touch your inner teacher.
The "new" aspect of this video for seemingly separeted myself is, that everything, what´s "non-happening" in the movie, is happening in One seemingly fragmented Son. And all the "feelings and thoughts" that I have about, are the parts of this sin, guilt fear film, which I can hardy bear to witness. But to withess it with HS, is the only way out/in His peace?
Not sure Keith will see ( much less respond ) to a video posted over eight months ago as of this comment…but my question or rather observation of ACIM is that it is one of uncompromising non duality. I can see this in almost every sentence and paragraph. I recently watched a video featuring four “ teachers” of ACIM who categorically deny this. They go on to denigrate Ken Wapnick saying he edited out several chapters and essentially changed the meaning of ACIM to one of non duality. Then they warn their viewers never to listen to him. I find this incredulous as a long time student of non dual teachings and am interested in anybody else’s thoughts on this. ( although it’s most certainly the ego asking…Lol! These teachers also say the world of people is real, that we can manifest prosperity, and the whole gambit of new age teaching. Absolutely blows my mind they could get anything like that from a Course that repeatedly points to the opposite and who’s core teaching is that there is no physical universe at all!
I shut it off when he said nothing here has meaning. 😢 I’m sorry but it’s EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE. I didn’t get that at all from studying the course. I even went to a study group for a long time and this was never ever ever the focus or interpretation. The universe is the best book there is. Nothing channeled into human writing can surpass that. TCIM HELPS you see the larger picture in everything! I recommend the guy 10 minutes in saying that crazy stuff read “The Textbook of the Universe: The Genetic Ascent to God” from 2003. Was the Best, actually the only book, I ever read which allowed me to see the natural universe as actual writing. To see it symbolically. Anyway, just a suggestion 😊❤👍🏻 I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the Course in Miracles and all the people. Which is why I’m trying to help. Thanks so much. ❤
"Nothing I see in this room [on this street, from this window, in this place] means anything." Lesson 1 "If you could accept the world as meaningless and let the truth be written upon it for you, it would make you indescribably happy." Lesson 12 The only temporary meaning the world has, which the Holy Spirit writes on it, is forgiveness. T-30.V.1. "The real world is the state of mind in which the only purpose of the world is seen to be forgiveness."
@@acimwithkeith Yes, but in a sense this is true, but I interpreted it differently. Thank you 😊 For example, I interpreted it as meaning that what you think is important in your life as a person now who needs things is not important. Sorta like meditation helps you let go of things you worry about to focus on higher things. To let go of fake meanings that are actually instrumental information and background “media” for the real meaning of higher things. 🤷♀️
Very interesting,I am a witness,to things that are not real, but, just practicing this,will take the anger,or it will shift,?The more we practice the witnessing, the less we feel the starkness of emotions.?
I just started watching you. Please explain to me how we write our parts in the world that is not really real. I understand what you are saying. I really do and I'm happy to know it's not really real, but how did we write it?? Thank you so much
is there a reason that very few acim teachers mention David Hoffmeister, but always Kenneth Wapnick? Just curious. Is he teaching the course from an entirely different perspective?
Ken was the first teacher of the Course and his vast body of work is seminal. So it's not surprising that he is referenced so often. It doesn't take from anyone else's work.
Yes, there's different versions. I always read from the official Foundation For Inner Peace version. However, I think you'll find that quote (There is no world) in paragraph 6 of all versions.
@@acimwithkeith thank you for getting back to me. Is there a way to connect with you privately? I had an experience before coming across acim and I don’t have anyone to talk to about it, I think it was what the book calls a revelation, but coming from a Jehova’s witness background the elders would say it was the devil, and I know for a fact a love that immense could not have been from anyone but Jesus or God himself.
From ACIM view, how do we avoid this reincarnation dream upon our death? …Why can’t we remember agreeing to the dream of the wrong minded world again, so we do not make this error again upon our death?
We will misidentify as a body as long as guilt remains in our mind. Because of projection, that guilt is shining in everyone else in the world and not in us. So we must learn to look on the world without any judgement of it ever. It is what is. It has no effect on my Peace because that comes from the Holy Spirit. Nothing can take it from me and I do not need it from the world or anyone in it being a certain way. We must look on a forgiven world. The Course calls this the Real World. It is experiencing this world with no projection of guilt onto it. We experience in everything only the Love we are extending to it. Our forgiveness lessons are gradually undoing our guilt.
