Class: The Quick Fix
Class summary: Answers three subscriber questions: (1) Why am I projecting a dream in which I am the father of children with serious developmental problems? Who am I, who is my wife and who are my children? In other words, what are the underlying metaphysics behind this projection? (2) In one of the classes you talked about your retreat and you mentioned that you have to be with Jesus and don’t look somewhere else — to the ego. It sounds like a decision. Could you contrast that to what blissninnies do? (3) I am discovering about myself that I just want to be miserable. It’s almost like I would rather feel pain than feel nothing at all. So my question is: How do you unlock the door in your mind when you really don’t want to?
Also includes excerpts from two one-on-one sessions: (1) A couple contacted me after attending the first of a series of weekend workshops as part of a non-ACIM program that touted it was the fastest way to get rid of your ego — a quick fix. They were also told it would save them at least five years of Course study, and open up the whole Course to them in a way studying on their own never could. We discuss the promises, sales tactics, our desire to skip steps, and look at the real “quick fix” the Course offers. (2) Singling people out from the Sonship, and why thinking loving thoughts doesn’t work. Give the Course’s version of “Namaste”.
