A Course in Miracles David

David began his journey to spiritual Awakening in 1986 when he encountered A Course in Miracles and recognized it as the tool he had been seeking for a radical transformation of his mind and perceptions. In the early years, David studied the Course with passionate intensity, often reading it for eight or more hours a day. After two years of this study, David began to seek the company of other students of ACIM, attending as many as five groups per week. He was startled to find that a Voice was speaking through him with great authority, so that many began referring their questions to him.
Among family members, friends, and teachers, David was always known for questioning everything, rather than accepting conventional answers. Thus, he was delighted to find in the Course support and encouragement from the Voice of Jesus for his careful examination of every idea, belief, concept, and assumption in his mind. Jesus became David’s internal teacher, answering his every question, guiding him to hand over the day-to-day management of all relationships, circumstances, and events in his life, and providing inner discernment.
In 1991, David was impelled to make another leap of trust and began traveling around the United States and Canada, sharing his clarity of understanding related to A Course in Miracles. He followed Jesus’ instructions to “become as a child,” allowing himself to be totally dependent on the Holy Spirit for money, transportation, shelter, food, and even the words to speak at countless ACIM gatherings, churches, metaphysical and spiritual groups, and a host of holy encounters with people who knew nothing of the Course. David found that it was his constant joy and peace that was the best teacher in all encounters, and that it was this peace that all his brothers and sisters were seeking. The Voice of Jesus told David, as it had instructed the apostles 2,000 years before: “Freely you have received; freely give.” Thus, David has never charged for his time, teaching, or any of the many materials he gives away, but has been supported entirely by love offerings. In all his years of traveling and sharing the wisdom of Christ, David has become a living demonstration of the principles of A Course in Miracles, such as the following lessons:
“I am sustained by the Love of God.” (ACIM, W-50)
“I am the light of the world.” (W-61)
“I will step back and let Him lead the way.” (W-155)
“In my defenselessness my safety lies.” (W-153)
“God’s Will for me is perfect happiness.” (W-101)
David was guided to a small house in 1996. It became a place of quiet and meditation between travels but also a place where he could welcome those desiring to step back from the world and go deeply within the mind to discover the Christ within. David’s time at the Peace House opened a new phase of his ministry as Holy Spirit guided him to acquire computers and use internet technology. The result was the making of a number of websites. His main website, Foundation for the Awakening Mind, today offers a huge array of resources related to A Course in Miracles and the metaphysics of Christ. Spiritual truth-seekers can subscribe to David’s e-group, AwakeningInChrist, where for several years he answered the questions sent to him from all over the world. This online group now serves as a global mailing list to announce Foundation events and new resources as well as David’s travel schedule.
Always a lover of music, and seeing it as a path to God in its own right, David has set up a number of Musicians Pavilions on his website highlighting a variety of artists who share spiritual ideas through music. Also available on the site are video clips of television interviews he has done, audio recordings of gatherings and teaching sessions, searchable archives, and writings such as Mind Overhaul, Purpose Is the Only Choice, and the Movie Watcher’s Guide To Enlightenment (David sees movies as another helpful path to God).
While the internet ministry was unfolding, a friend was inspired to establish a non-profit organization, the Foundation for The Awakening Mind, which now serves as a framework for coordinating all aspects of the ministry and for handling larger donations. All donations help David continue to share the experience of Christ’s Divine Love or Perfect Oneness.https://www.facebook.com/acourseinmiraclesdavid/

Last Day on Earth Hack

Despite the fact that it seems outlandish, over the eons, glaciers may have made Earth hotter, another study suggests. Researchers took an information driven jump into the mechanics of weathering by glaciation more than millions of years to see how chilly cycles influenced the oceans and atmosphere and keep on doing so. They needed to know how and when chemicals released by weathering of the land achieved the atmosphere and sea, and what impact they have had. Their study shows that glaciation, through upgraded erosion, most likely increased the rate of carbon dioxide released to the earth. The researchers decided upgraded oxidation of pyrite, an iron sulfide also known as trick's gold, most likely produced corrosiveness that encouraged carbon dioxide into the oceans and changed the carbon cycle. The oscillation of glaciers more than 10,000 years could have changed atmospheric carbon dioxide by 25 parts for each at least million. While this is a significant level of t...

A Course in Miracles - People Are Thoughts

Enjoy this excerpt from a transcribed talk from the awakened joyful mind of David Hoffmeister, a profound and uncompromising  A Course in Miracles  teacher. One of the things I opened up with today is the nondual idea from  A Course in Miracles ,  that people aren't really people, they're just thoughts. If you think about all the struggle and pain and misery in human relationships it's because of the belief that you're a person and that there are other people and they don't go together very well on this planet, or any planet for that matter, any reality, even in science fiction! The Klingons never get on with the Romulans and they never get along with the Borg, you know, even when we're off into Star Trek, in other realms, the beings are not getting along. Even George Lucas; Star Wars, it wasn't star harmony it was Star Wars and the 'dark side' and Darth Vader. It wouldn't make much of a story or a drama if it was - la la la la la la...

Stone Island is an Italian premium men's apparel brand

Stone Island is an Italian premium men's apparel brand from Ravarino famous for its compass patch that buttons on the upper sleeve of the left arm. Massimo Osti (b. 1944; † 2005) started his first label C.P. Company in 1974. Stone Island was set as a secondary line or diffusion collection of his main tag. The brand specialized in surface treatment of fabrics and dyeing techniques. The business was bought by GFT in 1983, Osti abandoned in 1994, it is now run by Carlo Rivetti. Originally the spots were green edged, badges from 2000 onwards became black edged. There are a run of rarer 'white badges' which were originally made on certain jackets to celebrate the millennium. The white badge is currently evident on coats which use materials that Stone Island develops themselves in-house. Novel jacket designs include the "Liquid Reflective" coat, that uses thousands of small shards of glass which reflect to light. In the late 1990s the make has been popular among fo...
