December Featured Items

This month’s featured products explore themes of darkness and light, and Jesus, all familiar symbols of the traditional Christmas season. Not surprisingly, Kenneth’s teachings offer a very different perspective that encourages us to shift our focus from an external world of darkness that Jesus has come with his light to save from sin, to the inner world of the mind, where we have chosen to believe in the darkness of the ego. The good news is that we always have within our mind as well the light of the Holy Spirit’s Correction, which Jesus comes to represent to us through his Course, and to which we can bring our illusory darkness to be dispelled.

Bringing Darkness to Light:
The Vision of Forgiveness

Kenneth Wapnick, Ph.D.

Kenneth presents three of Helen Schucman’s Christmas poems to illuminate the Course’s forgiveness process. By bringing the ego’s hidden darkness, manifested in our belief in sin, guilt, fear, differences, and specialness, into our awareness while joining with the healing light of our inner Teacher, we learn to see our universal sameness with all our brothers and sisters. This is an essential step in our process of awakening from the dream of darkness and death. In practical terms, we begin to recognize our shared, not separate, interests with everyone, reflecting our oneness both in Heaven and on earth.

From Darkness to Light

Kenneth Wapnick, Ph.D.

We all at times experience anger and hatred, but few of us fully realize their true source in the depths of the darkness that lies hidden in our minds. In this program, Kenneth discusses how these feelings offer glimpses of the ego’s darkness, the result of our efforts to deny the darkness within by projecting it outside ourselves onto everyone else. Kenneth points to the way out of the darkness through a willingness to recognize the hatred and selfishness within that must lie beneath all our judgments against others. By then bringing our growing awareness of that darkness within to the light of our relationship with Jesus in our mind, we will see it disappear in the light of forgiveness.

Jesus: Light in the Dream

Kenneth Wapnick, Ph.D.

Drawing inspiration from Freud’s theory of dreams, Kenneth presents Jesus as the light in our right mind, outside the ego dream of attack and specialness, that calls to us to awaken to the truth of the Self we are, an extension of God’s Love. But our mind wishes to remain asleep to keep our separate and special dream self alive and real, and so we incorporate Jesus and his call from outside into our dream, bringing him into the world, so that we may continue sleeping and dreaming. Respecting our fear of losing that self through awakening, Jesus meets us where we believe we are and very gently leads us through our dreams, helping us recognize the unreality of the content of guilt and fear that lie beneath our dream life of victims and victimizers. Through this gentle shining, the willingness to awaken grows as the ego’s inner darkness is released to the light and its illusory nature recognized, so that we no longer see any value in remaining asleep and dreaming.
