The
Power of Forgiveness -
2020
Forgiveness
is the key to
happiness.
Here
is the answer to your
search for peace. Here is
the key to meaning in a
world that seems to make
no sense. Here is the way
to safety in apparent
dangers that appear to
threaten you at every
turn, and bring
uncertainty to all your
hopes of ever finding
quietness and peace. Here
are all questions
answered; here the end of
all uncertainty ensured at
last.
A Course in Miracles Lesson 121
Forgiveness is at the
heart of the practical
teachings of A
Course in Miracles. It
removes all the obstacles to
realising our divine,
eternal, formless nature. It
reveals the peace, joy and
love put there by our
Creator. Forgiveness is
misunderstood by the world
which sees problems outside
ourselves instead of in our
mind, where forgiveness can
heal them. When we attack
and judge another we are
really attacking our own
mind, the source of
projections. What
we find disturbing in the
world are but symbols of
what is unhealed in our
minds. We live in a
reflective universe.
This
workshop will explore both
the metaphysical and
practical teachings of the
Course. Exercises will be
used to apply forgiveness to
the problems in our minds,
the only place true healing
can occur.
We
will explore the following
topics from the Course:
Metaphysical
teachings:
Metaphysics
of forgiveness
Forgiveness
saves time - the miracle
Creating
a different reality with
forgiveness-manifestation
Practical
teachings:
The
ego's world of guilt, denial
and projection
Two
faces: victim and victimiser
True
and false forgiveness
Resistance
to forgiveness
Ladder
of forgiveness
Judgement
and defenselessness
Healing
the body through forgiveness
No knowledge
of A Course in
Miracles is required.

Healing the
Cause:
Since 1986 I have been
conducting healing workshops in the UK and
abroad, and have continually experimented
to find healing and forgiveness exercises
that are effective. I have found
that a particular exercise can be
effective for one person but not another.
Accordingly, I was led to develop a series
of exercises. Over the years workshop
participants asked if these exercises
could be put onto audio cassettes and CDs
so they could repeat them. This has
resulted in the Healing the Cause -
Exercise series - Tapes 1 to 4 (2
exercises on each tape) and CD1 and 2 (4
exercises on each CD)
CD - 3
Healing Exercises in English with German translation. 10 Euro
Content:
Ex1. Forgiving
Ourselves.
Ex2. Changing Perception
and Finding peace.
Ex3. Changing Perception of
another - exercise for two people.
These exercises are similar
to existing exercises already available on
CDs but are translated into German.
Workshops:
1. Three
Steps of Forgiveness.
This workshop concentrates
on the process of forgiveness from the
perspective of A Course in Miracles.
Includes 3 healing exercises.
Recorded at the
Annual Miracle Network Conference in
London, November 2001. 1 hour 12 mins. One
CD
2. Finding
and Eliminating the Blocks to Receiving
Guidance.
This talk investigates what
stops us hearing the guidance that is ever
present in our lives. Recorded at the
Annual Miracle Network Conference in
London, October 20001 hour. One CD

INSPIRATIONAL
QUOTATIONS
About three times a week I
send a short quotation from some spiritual
teacher or poet to people who have
requested some uplifting thoughts. I have
included some below. If you wish I can add
your name to the email list.
How long, O Son of God,
will you maintain the game of sin? Shall
we not put away these sharp-edged
children's toys? How soon will you be
ready to come home? Perhaps today? There
is no sin. Creation is unchanged. Would
you still hold return to Heaven back? How
long, O holy Son of God, how long?
A Course in
Miracles Lesson 250
The
true act of forgiveness requires you
to see your own judgments as the
crime, the one thing that keeps you
from connecting with Source.
Making Love to God: The
Path to Divine Sex
Tina
Louise Spalding
Do understand that you are
destined for enlightenment.
Co-operate with your
destiny, don't go against it, don't thwart
it.
Allow it to fulfil itself.
All you have to do is to
give attention to the obstacles created by
the foolish mind.
Nisargadatta Maharaj
I Am That
If you hate
something and you focus all your
energy on it, you will get more of
it!
So watch who
you hate, how you hate, and when you
hate, and make a different choice.
If you
invest energetically in something,
then you will get more of it. Have no
doubt about it.
So know that
the ripples of hatred and judgment
that you send out will come back to
you in the form of a magnified energy
of that very same frequency, and that
is something to contemplate, is it
not?
You
Can Free Yourself from the Karma of
Chaos
One is more likely to
awaken through surrender than through
seeking to waken. The effort to awaken is
the effort of ego, whereas to surrender is
to give up all efforts and to place
oneself in the hands of a vast force that
is more powerful than any realization of
non duality.
When one finally gives up
one's futile attempts to make reality
conform to one's own wishes, and allows it
to unfold on its own terms, all the energy
that was tied up in foolish attempts to
manipulate the universe is freed up.
