“Finca de Milagros” A wonderful space dedicated to the message of A Course in Miracles, is presenting an opportunity for all teachers of this message of Love to be together for a moment in the Joy and Freedom of self-recognition. Our purpose as Teachers of God is the acceptance and extension of the practical ideas of self-realization as given in A Course in Miracles.

This instant is the only time there is.

I have conceived of time in such a way that I defeat my aim. If I elect to reach past time to timelessness, I must change my perception of what time is for. Time’s purpose cannot be to keep the past and future one. The only interval in which I can be saved from time is now. For in this instant has forgiveness come to set me free. The birth of Christ is now, without a past or future. He has come to give His present blessing to the world, restoring it to timelessness and love. And love is ever-present, here and now.

The Atonement was built into the space-time belief to set a limit on the need for the belief itself, and ultimately to make learning complete. The Atonement is the final lesson. Learning itself, like the classrooms in which it occurs, is temporary.

Where:

In Benitachell at the Costa Blanca, Spain, at our “Finca de Milagros”. Morning sessions: with Sonja and Dirk, from 10 am till 12.30 except on Tuesday, and Monday morning is for service.

My body disappeared because I had no illusion about it. The last one had gone. It was laid in the tomb, but there was nothing left to bury. It did not disintegrate because the unreal cannot die. It merely became what it always was. And that is what “rolling the stone away” means. The body disappears, and no longer hides what lies beyond. It merely ceases to interfere with vision. To roll the stone away is to see beyond the tomb, beyond death, and to understand the body’s nothingness. What is understood as nothing must disappear.

I did assume a human form with human attributes afterwards, to speak to those who were to prove the body’s worthlessness to the world. This has been much misunderstood. I came to tell them that death is illusion, and the mind that made the body can make another since form itself is an illusion. They did not understand. But now I talk to you and give you the same message. The death of an illusion means nothing. It disappears when you awaken and decide to dream no more. And you still do have the power to make this decision as I did.

God holds out His hand to His Son to help him rise and return to Him. I can help because the world is illusion, and I have overcome the world. Look past the tomb, the body, the illusion. Have faith in nothing but the spirit and the guidance God gives you. He could not have created the body because it is a limit. He must have created the spirit because it is immortal. Can those who are created like Him be limited? The body is the symbol of the world. Leave it behind. It cannot enter Heaven. But I can take you there any time that you choose. Together we can watch the world disappear and its symbol vanish as it does so. And then, and then — I cannot speak of that.

A body can not stay without illusion and the last one to be overcome is death. This is the message of the crucifixion; There is no order of difficulties in miracles. This is the message of the resurrection: Illusions are illusions. Truth is true. Illusions vanish. Only truth remains.

These lessons needed to be taught but once, for when the stone of death is rolled away, what can be seen but an empty tomb? And that is what you see who follow me into the sunlight and away from death, past all illusions, on to Heaven’s gate, where God will come Himself to take you home.

-Jesus Christ
From the Original Text
of A Course In Miracles
(Urtext)

This is a truly unique and historic moment of transformation for the world. As grief, fear and anger grip the nation and indeed the world, the devastation we experience leads us to question if there can ever be a solution to our addiction to terror, war, conflict, pain, suffering and death. Every solution to date has either led to more problems or merely a change in the appearance of any problem.

“The separated ones have invented many ‘cures’ for what they believe to be the ‘ills of the world.’ But the one thing they do not do is to question the reality of the problem. Yet its effects cannot be cured because the problem is not real.” -A Course in Miracles

A Course in Miracles is the solution or healing of the apparent conditional situation between God and man, which is one of false separation, and to the manner in which that apparent schism is and was repaired. Its sole purpose is to bring enlightenment through the transformation of your mind. The Course teaches, “My thoughts are images I have made.” Everything is only your idea of it. Total responsibility for what one perceives permits one to change in an instant, perception in its entirety. This necessitates a transformation that is the mind-training program of A Course in Miracles for “an untrained mind can accomplish nothing.” To change your mind IS to change the world for “the world you see is of your own making and does not exist!”

Every great quantum discovery points to it. Neils Bohr tells me that the “fuzzy and nebulous world of the atom only sharpens into concrete reality when an observation is made”. From Einstein’s theory of relativity where time is relative to the observer, to Wheeler’s self-observing universe, it is clear that the world I see is a product of my own mind. No one argues the fact of it….that is, not until it comes to their own personal experience. What if I am totally responsible for the world I see?!

“There is no world apart from what you wish, and herein lies your ultimate release. Change but your mind on what you want to see, and all the world must change accordingly. And if it is indeed your own imagining, then you can loose it from all things you ever thought it was by merely changing all the thoughts that gave it these appearances. The sick are healed as you let go all thoughts of sickness, and the dead arise when you let thoughts of life replace all thoughts you ever held of death.”
–A Course in Miracles

A Course in Miracles International represents the millions of teachers and students of A Course in Miracles who individually or through healing centers or transformational study groups are discovering the peace of enlightened mind for which all humanity yearns. The healing of body, mind, and spirit through the training of our Course is being practiced in virtually every country of the world. Join us in this advent of a great awakening! www.acimi.com
With Love and Light, Kristen

Forget not once this journey is begun the end is certain.  Doubt along the way will come and go and go to come again.  Yet is the ending sure.  No one can fail to do what God appointed him to do.  When you forget, remember that you walk with Him and with His Word upon your heart.  Who could despair when hope like this is his?  Illusions of despair may seem to come, but learn how not to be deceived by them.  Behind each one there is reality and there is God.  Why would you wait for this and trade it for illusions, when His Love is but an instant farther on the road where all illusions end?  The end is sure and guaranteed by God.  Who stands before a lifeless image when a step away the Holy of the Holies opens up an ancient door that leads beyond the world?

You are a stranger here.  But you belong to Him Who loves you as He loves Himself.  Ask but my help to roll the stone away, and it is done according to His Will.  We have begun the journey.  Long ago the end was written in the stars and set into the Heavens with a shining Ray that held it safe within eternity and through all time as well.  And holds it still; unchanged, unchanging and unchangeable.

Be not afraid.  We only start again an ancient journey long ago begun that but seems new.  We have begun again upon a road we travelled on before and lost our way a little while.  And now we try again.  Our new beginning has the certainty the journey lacked till now.  Look up and see His Word among the stars, where He has set your Name along with His.  Look up and find your certain destiny the world would hide but God would have you see.

Let us wait here in silence, and kneel down an instant in our gratitude to Him Who called to us and helped us hear His Call.  And then let us arise and go in faith along the way to Him.  Now we are sure we do not walk alone.  For God is here, and with Him all our brothers.  Now we know that we will never lose the way again.  The song begins again which had been stopped only an instant, though it seems to be unsung forever.  What is here begun will grow in life and strength and hope, until the world is still an instant and forgets all that the dream of sin had made of it.

Let us go out and meet the newborn world, knowing that Christ has been reborn in it, and that the holiness of this rebirth will last forever.  We had lost our way but He has found it for us.  Let us go and bid Him welcome Who returns to us to celebrate salvation and the end of all we thought we made.  The morning star of this new day looks on a different world where God is welcomed and His Son with Him.  We who complete Him offer thanks to Him, as He gives thanks to us.  The Son is still, and in the quiet God has given him enters his home and is at peace at last.

-Master Jesus, from the Epilogue of The Manual for Teachers of A Course in Miracles

How great is Thy power, O Lord of all existences, that an atom of Thy joy is sufficient to efface so much darkness, so many sorrows and a single ray of Thy glory can light up thus the darkest pebble, illumine the blackest consciousness!

Thou has heaped Thy favors upon me, Thou hast unveiled to me many secrets, Thou hast made me taste many unexpected and unhoped for joys, but no grace of Thine can be equal to this Thou grantest me when a heart leaps at the touch of Thy Divine Breath.

At these blessed hours all earth sings a hymn of gladness, the grasses shudder with pleasure, the air is vibrant with light, the trees lift towards heaven their most ardent prayer, the chant of the birds becomes a canticle, the waves of the sea billow with love, the smile of children tells of the infinite and the souls of men appear in their eyes…

O Lord, never have I implored Thee in vain, for that which speaks to Thee is Thyself in me…

Drop by drop Thou allowest to fall in a fertilising rain the living and redeeming flame of Thy almighty love.  When these drops of eternal light descend softly on our world of obscure ignorance, one would say a rain upon the earth of golden stars one by one from a sombre firmament…

-From Mother Aurobindo, “The Prayers and Meditations of the Mother”

And now, another echo of Truth cascades back across the Universe…from Master Jesus:

There is a Light in you Which cannot die, Whose Presence is so holy that the world is sanctified because of you. All things that live bring gifts to you, and offer them in gratitude and gladness at your feet. The scent of flowers is their gift to you. The waves bow down before you, and the trees extend their arms to shield you from the heat and lay their leaves before you on the ground that you may walk in softness, while the wind sinks to a whisper around your holy head.

The Light in you is what the universe longs to behold. All living things are still before you, for they recognize Who walks with you. The light you carry is their own, and thus they see in you their holiness, saluting you as Savior and as God. Accept their reverence, for it is due to Holiness itself Which walks with you, transforming in Its gentle Light all things into Its likeness and Its purity.

This is the way salvation works. As you step back, the Light in you steps forward and encompasses the world. It heralds not the end of sin in punishment and death. In lightness and in laughter is it gone, because its quaint absurdity is seen. It is a foolish thought, a silly dream, not frightening, ridiculous perhaps, but who would waste an instant in approach to God Himself for such a senseless whim?

Yet you have wasted many, many years on just this foolish thought. The past is gone with all its fantasies. They keep you bound no longer. The approach to God is near. And in the little interval of doubt which still remains, you may perhaps lose sight of your Companion, and mistake Him for the senseless, ancient dream that now is past.

“Who walks with me?” This question should be asked a thousand times a day, till certainty has ended doubting and established peace. Today let doubting cease. God speaks for you in answering your question with these words:

“I walk with God in perfect holiness.
I light the world, I light my mind and all
The minds which God created one with me.”

-From A Course in Miracles
Lesson 156, “I Walk with God in Perfect Holiness”

Whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.
Believest thou this?
I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is,
when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God:
and they that hear shall live.
Verily, verily, I say unto you,
If a man keep my saying,
he shall never see death.

Teach not that I died in vain. Teach rather that I did not die by demonstrating that I live in you. For the undoing of the crucifixion of God’s Son is the work of the redemption, in which everyone has a part of equal value.

You have nailed yourself to a cross, and placed a crown of thorns upon your own head. Yet you cannot crucify God’s Son, for the Will of God cannot die. His Son has been redeemed from his own crucifixion, and you cannot assign to death whom God has given eternal life. The dream of crucifixion still lies heavy on your eyes, but what you see in dreams is not reality.

When you are tempted to yield to the desire for death, remember that I did not die.

You will realize that this is true when you look within and see me.
Would I have overcome death for myself alone? And would eternal life have been given me of the Father unless he had also given it to you?

My brother, child of our Father, this is a dream of death. There is no funeral, no dark altars, no grim commandments nor twisted rituals of condemnation to which the body leads you.

Ask not release from the body. But free it from the merciless and unrelenting orders you laid upon it, and forgive it what you ordered it to do. In its exaltation you commanded it to die, for only death could conquer life. And what but insanity could look upon the defeat of God, and think it real?

You think that death is of the body. Yet it is but an idea, irrelevant to what is seen as physical. A thought is in the mind.

Everything is accomplished through life, and life is of the mind and in the mind. The body neither lives nor dies, because it cannot contain you who are life. If we share the same mind, you can overcome death because I did.

Do you really want to be in hell? Do you really want to weep and suffer and die? For death is total. Either all things die, or else they live and cannot die. No compromise is possible.

There is no death because what God created shares His life.
There is no death because an opposite to God does not exist.
There is no death because the Father and the Son are one.
What would you see without the fear of death? What could you feel and think if death held no attraction for you?
Very simply, you would remember your father. The Creator of life, the Source of everything that lives, the Father of the universe and of the universe of universes, and of everything that lies even beyond them would you remember.

Swear not to die, you holy Son of God! You made a bargain that you cannot keep. The Son of Life cannot be killed. He is immortal as his Father. What he is cannot be changed. He is the only thing in all the universe that must be one.

This is your holy instant of eternal life.
And so each instant given unto God in passing, with the next one given Him already, is a time of your release from sadness, pain and death itself.

God holds your futures as He holds your past and present. They are one to Him, and so they should be one to you. Past, present and future are not continuous, unless you force continuity on them.

Yet in this world, the temporal progression still seems real. And so your are not asked to understand the lack of sequence really found in time. You are but asked to let the future go, and place it in God’s Hands.

Now is the time of salvation, for now is the release from time. Now do we wait in quiet. God is here, because we wait together. I am sure that He will speak to you, and you will hear. Accept my confidence, for it is yours.

Our minds are joined. We wait with one intent; to hear our Father’s answer to our call, to let our thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear Him speak to us of what we are, and to reveal Himself unto His Son.

“This day, my Father, would I spend with You, as You have chosen all my days should be. And what I will experience is not of time at all. The joy that comes to me is not of days nor hours, for it comes from Heaven to Your Son. This day will be Your sweet reminder to remember You. Your gracious calling to Your holy Son, the sign Your grace has come to me, and that it is Your Will I be set free today.”

-From “Jesus is Speaking,” Passages from A Course in Miracles

This is Palm Sunday, the celebration of victory, and the acceptance of the truth. Let us not spend this holy week brooding on the crucifixion of God’s Son, but happily in the celebration of his release. For Easter is the sign of peace, not pain. A slain Christ has no meaning. But a RISEN Christ becomes the symbol of the Son of God’s forgiveness upon himself; the sign he looks upon himself as healed and whole. This week begins with palms and ends with lilies, the white and holy sign the Son of God is innocent. Let no dark signs of crucifixion intervene between the journey and its purpose; between the acceptance of the truth and its expression.

-Ch. 20 A Course in Miracles

With Love and Gratitude Forever, Kristen

This world you seem to live in is not home to you.  And somewhere in your mind you know that this is true.  A memory of home keeps haunting you, as if there were a place that called you to return, although you do not recognize the voice, nor what it is the voice reminds you of.  Yet still you feel an alien here, from somewhere all unknown.  Nothing so definite that you could say with certainty you are an exile here.  Just a persistent feeling, sometimes not more than a tiny throb, at other times hardly remembered, actively dismissed, but surely to return to mind again.

No one but knows whereof we speak.  Yet some try to put by their suffering in games they play to occupy their time, and keep their sadness from them.  Others will deny that they are sad, and do not recognize their tears at all.  Still others will maintain that what we speak of is illusion, not to be considered more than but a dream.  Yet who, in simple honesty, without defensiveness and self-deception, would deny he understands the words we speak?

We speak today for everyone who walks this world, for he is not at home.  He goes uncertainly about in endless search, seeking in darkness what he cannot find; not recognizing what it is he seeks.  A thousand homes he makes, yet none contents his restless mind.  He does not understand he builds in vain.  The home he seeks cannot be made by him.  There is no substitute for Heaven.  All he ever made was hell.

-A Course in Miracles, Lesson 182

The door is wide open and the way is certain now.  The light in you will lead you there. Those that ask shall receive, and those that sincerely seek with an honest and open mind, will find.  Here is the place and now is the time!  For a guide and catalyst in your transitional moment, visit: www.themasterteacher.tv and dissapear with me into the Presence beyond the veil.  Not to be lost, but found.  Not to be seen, but KNOWN.

I Love you!!!

Like a flame that burns in silence, like a perfume that rises straight upward without wavering, my Love goes to Thee; and like the child who does not reason and has no care, I trust myself to Thee that Thy Will may be done, that Thy Light may manifest, Thy Peace radiate, Thy Love cover the world.  When Thou willest I shall be in Thee, Thyself, and there shall be no more anydistinction;  I await that blessed hour without impatience of any kind, letting myself flow irresistibly toward it as a peaceful stream flows toward the boundless ocean.

Thy Peace is in me, and in that Peace I see Thee alone present in everything with the calm of Eternity.

-Mother Aurobindo, from Toward’s Divine Living
