Living in the World: Prison or Classroom [CD]

At the heart of this weekend workshop, held in Atlanta in July 2003, living in the world according to A Course in Miracles' principle of forgiveness is discussed in the context of our teaching and learning, with special emphasis given to the idea that teaching is demonstration, and we learn what we teach. We demonstrate either the ego's thought system of separation and individuality through the cycles of guilt-attack and attack-defense; or the Holy Spirit's thought system of innocence and defenselessness. The former leads to a perception of the world as a prison, while the latter reflects the shift to perceiving the world as a classroom. The workshop's format integrated lecture, various readings from A Course in Miracles, and questions.
