"Be you perfect. The Kingdom of Heaven is within. The things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you."--the Bible

Lord, what miracles would You have me do today. If I am ready and willing, I am assured You will perform them through me. Amen.

Movie Watcher's Guide to Enlightenment

Use the link above or the one to the right to access this offering. An e-mail address is provided on the right as well if you'd like to request the Movie Watcher's Guide to Enlightenment be delivered to your inbox. As with everything we share, this is a free gift, offered in Love as a tool in the Great Awakening to Love.

Movies can be used as a way of forgiving, of undoing judgment, of releasing false concepts, and, ultimately, experiencing the depth and meaning of the True Inner Self. They can be a means to get in touch with and release limiting beliefs and come to a resolution of inner conflict. They need not be used as a means of escapism, distraction, or fantasy fulfillment, all of which are ego reinforcement.

Movies are like modern-day parables. They offer a backdrop for experiencing deeper awareness and purpose, the detached, fearless Perspective from which it is apparent "all things work together for good." For those who have the ears to hear and eyes to see, movie watching can offer insights a plenty into the very heart of the Soul. This guide is a list of movies that can help uncover the Innocence and Beauty that is the Real Self as God created It.

This Guide to Enlightenment will list movies that can be helpful in Awakening to Truth. Metaphysical and forgiveness themes will be the focus.

Circle of Light Transformation Webring

Miracles Companion: a reference tool for terminology in A Course In Miracles®.-Thanks Alexander & Janis!

Value What is Forever Free! The Kingdom of Heaven is Now! The Kingdom of Heaven is not of this world. Inner Peace is a present moment State of Mind. There is Great Joy in Divine Mind, Which is incapable of judgment of any kind. Awakening is acceptance of What Is. And forgiveness is the doorway to Peace Eternal. Value no scrap of illusion and the experience of freedom leaps into awareness.

Why wait for Heaven? It is here Now! In extending God's Love we are truly One Being. To extend One Self is to remain aware of the I am. Giving all to all is what having means, and our Heavenly Kingdom is what One Mind has and what One Mind is. Miracles seem to cascade and collapse time, as water might cascade down a multi-layered fountain, until it is seen that the first and last miracle (the alpha and omega) are One. Thank You God for creating All as One.

Peace and be still. The Grace of God extends forever. Awareness of God's Grace begins with forgiveness of illusions. A mind emptied of idols is made ready to accept the awareness of the Eternal Nature of Being One with God. What else could there ever be? For Thy Will is Perfect Happiness forever!

This moment is offered as a means to learn about our mission of Awakening. The "backdrop" we have been Guided to call "Foundation for the Awakening Mind" is just a temporary symbol of the inevitable necessity to forgive illusion and Awaken to the Love of God within. There are clearly no "memberships," no "dues," no "politics," no "sides," and no "organizations" in the inner experience of forgiveness. Who You are is far beyond the teaching and learning of this world. God is Calling Now and Christ is speaking: "I am Calling you out of the world. My Kingdom is not of this world. Be ye Perfect as God is Perfect. That which is born of the flesh is flesh. But That Which is Born of the Spirit is Spirit." Rejoice in the simple remembrance of this Wholly True Thought: "I am as God created Me." This is an open invitation to Discover the Truth of Your Being. "I am forever Innocent as Pure Spirit!"

Enlightenment/Salvation: constant Peace, Happiness, Joy, Love, & Freedom, is our Inheritance as a Child of God. Seeing past all deception, releasing all error and illusion, and coming to Clarity and Harmony of Mind is realistic, for such is Truth. Forgiveness, laying aside all judgment, is the key to Clarity and Harmony of Mind. Can you faintly imagine how freeing and wonderful is the State of Mind devoid of petty judgments? Such a Mind rests in Its Source, in Perfection, and in Innocence! Such is Reality!

True Mysticism is dedicated to remembering the Source of Life. It requires emptying the contents of consciousness of all illusory thoughts and beliefs, that What Is forever true may be remembered. It is a Joyful Life, for Love holds no grievances. It is a Tranquil Life, for Love makes no comparisons. It is a Peaceful Life, for conflict is gone when Love comes into awareness!

Our Being resides in the Mind of God. All seeking arrives at finding our Self in God. In God we are Home Now!

Through the Grace of God we are honored to serve and reflect the One in offering gatherings, journals, retreats, and video tapes which shed light on the experience of forgiveness. These offerings are available without charge to those who request them. Awakening to Who You Are has no price or cost. Love offering gifts and donations are gratefully accepted. We welcome all inquiries and requests from anyone with a deep, sincere desire to Awaken to Eternal Love. Send us a letter or an e-mail and feel free to call and leave a voice message.

Please write us and share your stories, experiences and questions on Awakening to Truth. We do experience great delight in receiving your communications.

We all share One Mind and are so very grateful that Love has no opposite! Love is the State of All Being and through which Love extends Love.

The Willingness to Look Within: Questioning the Unconscious Belief System of the Ego.

What an adventure it is to look inward and question the unconscious belief system of the ego, raising to awareness the dark, unconscious aspects of the mind. This process seems to take many forms, depending on what is best suited to the learner. Yet healing the mind is simply tracing all misperceptions and upsets back to a mistaken decision, one that is based on a single, false "cause" (ego), and then deciding anew in the Present Moment.

As long as one's peace and happiness and upsets are believed to be "outer" dependent, one's state of mind seems to be at the mercy of "external events." It seems as if upsetting emotions are the result of something in the world (ie., something that happened in the past or that might happen in the future, something that a person said or did or failed to say or do, etc.) The idea that peace of mind is a present decision can sound nice, even enticing, but may seem simplistic, unrealistic, or perhaps just a little too good to be true.

The Truth is simple! It is the layers and layers of complexity that cover It over in awareness that make It seem either nonexistent or out of reach. And initially it does seem to take a persistent effort to question everything that you believe and all the underlying assumptions in which you are invested. It seems easier to just pick a role and play the part or to conform to a group belief system, a "package deal" of beliefs. Yet to arrive at the Truth, all unconscious beliefs and the single belief (ego) from which they "originate" must be raised to the Light of Truth and seen (unmasked) as unreal.

To transform conciousness, a complete change of mind or complete reversal of thinking is necessary. The tangled web of ego beliefs and thoughts must be unraveled and undone (released) before awareness can bask in the Light of Truth. In a passionate search for the Meaning beyond the fragmented perceptions and sights and sounds of the world, the initial requirement is willingness. It takes willingness to give yourself permission to go within and just observe your mind and its beliefs and thoughts, without deciding to just give in to the outlets and distractions of the world. It is a bold desire to let the Call of God within Guide you to look differently upon the world, and Give you a different Perspective on everyone and everything you see.

The classic nursery rhyme ends in profound wisdom: "life is but a dream." Even if you remain unsure about your ability to change your mind so completely that you can see the world "merrily" ...as "but a dream," again, the only thing you need to start to move in that direction is willingness. The ego, unrecognized, seems to offer something of value. Its "gifts" are like fool's gold. And while the mind values the ego and "buys the bait of separation and duality," the world of scarcity, attack, and conflict will seem real. But the more you look at the ego unmasked, the less attraction it will hold for you. And you will be increasingly attracted to the Call to Love, for Love is Who You are.
