ACIMblog bulletin for July 2013:
New website, Awakening-Together.org features non-dual metaphysics
There’s a new website featuring a variety of teachings emphasizing non-dual metaphysics, Awakening-Together.org. In addition to offering the audio programming of ACIM Gather (which will officially migrate to this new site in 2014), it provides a forum for a wide variety of related sharing, a weekly program on Sunday mornings and much more. Here’s their purpose statement: Awakening Together is an assembly of equals joined in common purpose: awakening to one true Self. Within an appearance of many faiths, many cultures and many symbols, we seek to discern one truth and to rest in its embrace.
Interview with Dr. Lorraine Hurley
What? My mind is primary? The space-time dream secondary at best? … Here’s an audio archive of another fun interview of me by Dr. Lorraine Hurley we did last week where we covered these topics and more. Click on the first hour link from the 25July2013 archive. Enjoy! :-)
Forgiving Ourselves – A conversation with Lyn Corona, Susan Dugan and Bruce Rawles
A video conversation with Lyn Corona and Susan Dugan about looking at the resistance to forgiving ourselves without judgment, and a variety of metaphors and ideas that might be helpful, inspired by studies in A Course In Miracles. More at ACIMblog.com, ForaysInForgiveness.com, BecomingLearnersTogether.com and SchoolOfReason.org (now SchoolForACourseInMiracles).
Forgiveness Offers Everything I Want: New ACIM studies book
Today I finished reading Forgiveness Offers Everything I Want, a superb new ACIM-studies book by Susan Dugan, available in both paperback and Kindle versions. We also had a recent video conversation about the book (which continues in the same humorous and lucid writing style as her prior – equally engaging – book, Extraordinary Ordinary Forgiveness). The book uses examples from her personal mindful forgiveness training as the springboard to look at how we can be happily wrong about our narrow, victim-centric and grievance-based interpretations and judgments and learn to generalize these life lessons we all share.
