You do not offer God your gratitude because your brother is more slave than you, nor could you sanely be enraged if he seems freer. Love makes no comparisons. And gratitude can only be sincere if it be joined to love.(from W-p1.195.4:1-3 Love is the way I walk in gratitude)
A lovely sentiment that I am sure we would all agree with and believe in fact that we follow as best we can. But do we? An exploration of this theme and examination of how we usurp it more than would like to believe. Read the rest of this entry »

Final workshop for 2011!
THE HOLINESS OF CHRISTMAS
Christmas is holy only if you come
In silence to the manger, to behold
Your holiness made visible to you.
Your gifts are but your open hands, made clean
Of grasping. Nothing else you lay before
The newly-born except your doubts and fears,
Your pale illusions and your sickly pride,
Your hidden venom and your little love,
Your meager treasures and unfaithfulness
To all the gifts that God has given you.
Here at the altar lay all this aside
To let the door to Heaven open wide
And hear the angels sing of peace on earth,
For Christmas is the time of your rebirth.
Helen Schucman – The Gifts of God
Discussion around some the the Christmas passages of the Course and the poems of Helen.

Saturday Workshop, Nov 5, 2-5 PM, Coburg
“Such is the Holy Spirit’s kind perception of specialness; His use of what you made, to heal instead of harm.” T-25.VI.4:1
Continuing the theme from the September Workshop we will look again at this thing called specialness and how we need to see it and hand it over.

Saturday Workshop, Oct 1, 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Communication is a strange beast. The only true communication is with God and through God. There are no words, no sounds, no disturbance. So what is to “receive” communication? How do we communicate to our brothers? How does the Holy Spirit communicate with us? How does it “change” as we practice the Course. Read the rest of this entry »

Saturday Workshop, Sept 3, 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Think not that you lack a special value here. You wanted it, and it was given you. All that you made can serve salvation easily and well. T-25.VI.7:2-4
What makes you special? What do you do with the things you make special? Do you shun all “specialness” in your life? Do you feel guilty because you don’t?

For fantasy solutions bring but the illusion of experience, and the illusion of peace is not the condition in which truth can enter. T-17.VI.7:6
“Just who’s experience is this anyway?” or “What am I bringing to the table?”
Hard questions that need to be asked of oneself if one is to receive the gift being offered. But of course the difficulty is not in asking these questions, it is in the willingness to truthfully answer them.

Trust is the first characteristic acquired by a teacher of God. The first and the foundation. It is also something that seems to wax and wane as we learn to understand what Jesus means when he talks about it.
Like everything in the course it is both simple but difficult.

Three Steps – the simplicity of how one practices the Course and why we don’t do it!
Many students of the Course find it a bit tough going most of the time, reading and analysing the material itself, going to groups and workshops in an effort to get a bit more understanding all the while refusing to do the little it actually asks.

Prices in Australia for A Course in Miracles are a bit over the top these days. Whether it is the tyranny of distance or the regional price arrangements online prices are better than even the wholesale prices currently being demanded.
The following was originally a reply to a question asked about how to obtain a copy locally. The answer is – buy it online!

“What am I?”
Discussing the practical aspects of applying the principles of A Course in Miracles to your daily life.
Part II of the Workbook contains 14 “What is…” essays ranging in topics from “Forgiveness” to “Creation”. We will conclude our use of these essays with the “What am I?” section.
Perhaps the most difficult concept to really understand as our entire investment in denying the truth of who we are is tied up with this concept and our reluctance to truly question the answer we give ourselves.
To be held in Coburg, Melbourne, Australia.

Next session, and last for 2009, Sat., 5 Dec 2009 – Purpose.
This is actually the continuation of the discussion we began with our November session “What is it for?” In a very real sense this is where Jesus is taking us as we complete our reading of the Text. The more we look to our purpose and the purpose we give to all around us, the clearer we become on what our real choices are.
