THIS CLASS MADE ME GO THROUGH MY BOOK SHELF AND PULL OUT SOME FAVORITES METAPHYSICAL TEACHER'S WORKS
DR. ERNEST HOLMES, EDGAR CAYCE, MARY EDDY BAKER, EMMA HOPKINS, LOUISE HAY, THE SECRET AND JUST TO MANY OTHERS TO COUNT. THIS WAS GOOD. ALL TO OFTEN I THINK WE FORGET ALL ABOUT THOSE BOOKS WE READ AND KEPT NODDING OUR HEADS AS WE WERE FINALLY UNDERSTANDING IT ALL. THIS CLASS FOR ME WAS A JOLT TO RE-VISIT IDEAS THAT SOMEHOW HAD BECOME LOST.
THERE WERE SEVERAL LESSON THAT SEEMED TO RE-AWAKEN MY OWN SPIRITUAL VOICE.
LESSON EIGHT-"INTENTIONS''- THIS ENABLED ME TO RECONNECT TO MY STUDIES IN RELIGIOUS SCIENCE. IT MADE ME THINK AND REFLECT ON WHY I WAS CALLED INTO THIS WAY OF THINKING IN THE FIRST PLACE. I NEEDED DIRECTION. I HAD A TURNING POINT WITHIN MY LIFE THAT NEEDED TO BE ADDRESSED. THIS LESSON ENABLE ME TO REFRESH MY MIND ON INTENTIONS. HOW TO KEEP MY MIND OPEN AND MY SENSE OF CLARITY CLOSE TO MY INNER EYES.
LESSON 10 " THE GIFT OF VISUALIZATION "NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN" HOW TRUE . THIS AGAIN HAD ME PICKING ONE OF MY FAVORITE METAPHYSICAL MENTOR'S TO AGAIN COME TO CLARITY. NOW I SAID "TO COME TO CLARITY" THIS IS A VERY POWERFUL STATEMENT . CLARITY IS USUALLY ASSOCIATED WITH THE MENTAL REALM. YET AGAIN ALL REALMS ARE NEEDED TO HAVE A MOMENT OF CLARITY, A TIME FOR A VISION. BASICALLY RENEWING ONES OWN LIFE'S VISION
LESSON 12- " LETTING GO OF" "GUILT IS THE PROBLEM BUT LOVE AND FORGIVENESS ARE ALWAYS THE ANSWER. AS I READ THIS I REMEMBER ONE OF MY FAVORITE BOOKS, "THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK". ANNE'S LAST ENTRY IS" I STILL BELIEVE THAT DEEP DOWN INSIDE PEOPLE'S HEARTS IS GOODNESS" ANNE WROTE THIS MOMENTS BEFORE THE NAZI'S BROKE DOWN THE DOOR TO THE SECRET ANNEX. ANNE KNEW WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN AND HAD 'CLARITY' TO WRITE DOWN ONE OF THE MOST PROFOUND STATEMENTS IN LITERATURE AND JUST BASICALLY HUMAN HISTORY. SHE BASICALLY WAS LETTING GO AND MOST OF ALL FORGIVING THE PEOPLE WHO WERE GOING TO HURT HER.
HOW POWERFUL IF EACH PERSON COULD JUST DO THIS. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS WHERE WE BATTLE OUR EGO'S.
LESSON 16 PART 3 " MIRACLES AND HEALTH" NOW THIS IS WHERE I FELT MY EGO CREEPING IN. I LIVE WITH FIBROMYALGIA A CHRONIC PAIN CONDITION. READING THAT ILLNESS COME FROM MY OWN MIND IS NOTHING NEW. AS I READ THIS I GOT MARY BAKER EDDY'S "SCIENCE AND HEALTH" FROM MY SHELVES. SURELY ENOUGH THERE WAS MY BOOK MARK WHERE I HAD LEFT OFF. I HAD A HARD TIME WITH THIS BOOK. I THINK THIS IS MY LIFE PROCESS TO UNDERSTAND IDEALS LIKE MIRACLES AND YOUR HEALTH. IT WAS HITTING HOME AND SOME OF IT I WAS NOT WILLING TO LISTEN TO.
THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS I LOVE BELONGING TO ULC SEMINARY. I DON'T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS AFTER I READ AN ASSIGNMENT, NOR AM I MOVED , ENLIGHTEN OR HAVE A MOMENT OF CLARITY. ALL I KNOW IS CLARITY OFTEN HAPPENS AFTER I READ AND RE-READ AN ASSIGNMENT, BUT MOSTLY WHEN I APPLY IT TO MY DAILY LIFE.
PEACE
