If you are willing to recognize your problems, you will recognize that you have no problems. Your one central problem has been answered, and you have no other. Therefore you must be at peace. Salvation does depend on recognizing this one problem, and understanding that it has been solved. One problem–one solution. Salvation is accomplished. Freedom from conflict has been given you. Accept that fact, and you are ready to take your rightful place in God’s plan for salvation.

Your only problem has been solved! Repeat this over and over to yourself today, with gratitude and conviction. You have recognized your only problem, opening the way for the Holy Spirit to give you God’s answer. You have laid deception aside, and seen the light of truth. You have accepted salvation for yourself by bringing the problem to the answer. And you can recognize the answer because the problem has been identified.

You are entitled to peace today. A problem that has been resolved cannot trouble you. Only be certain you do not forget that all problems are the same. Their many forms will not deceive you while you remember this. One problem–one solution. Accept the peace this simple statement brings.

In our longer practice periods today, we will claim the peace that must be ours when the problem and the answer have been brought together. The problem must be gone because God’s answer cannot fail. Having recognized one, you have recognized the other. The solution is inherent in the problem. You are answered and have accepted the answer. You are saved.

Now let the peace that your acceptance brings be given you. Close your eyes and receive your reward. Recognize that your problems have been solved. Recognize that you are out of conflict, free and at peace. Above all, remember that you have one problem and that the problem has one solution. It is in this that the simplicity of salvation lies. It is because of this that it is guaranteed to work.

Assure yourselves often today that your problems have been solved. Repeat the idea with deep conviction as frequently as possible. And be particularly sure to remember to apply the idea for today to any specific problem that may arise. Say quickly:

“Let me recognize this problem has been solved.”

Let us be determined not to collect grievances today. Let us be determined to be free of problems that do not exist. The means is simple honesty. Do not deceive yourself about what the problem is, and you must recognize it has been solved.

-A Course in Miracles, Lesson 80
“Let me recognize my problems have been solved.”

In the darkest night of your soul…

In the dim desolation of your Gethsemane.
When all of your disciples still sleep.
When your God is deaf to your cry
to remove the cup.
When your final desperate demand
to know “why God has forsaken you”
echoes across an empty Universe –

Then the time of your awakening is at hand.

You are constructing in your individual passion the drama of resurrection.
Ah! But now with a difference.
This time you’re the central character.
This time at last you play the leading part.
Fulfilling the law as you go,
marking each milestone
with your healing grace,
you walk the seven miles
from Bethlehem to Jerusalem
and are met at the place of the skull.

You know the script well for you‘ve
rehearsed every character.
You’ve been the soldier that rolled the dice and the one with the spear that pierced.
In one scene you’ve shouted “Hosanna, Hosanna” and called “Barabbas,
save Barabbas” in the next.
You’ve denied with Peter,
connived as Judas, and doubted as Thomas.
As a blind man you’ve seen,
as a cripple you’ve walked.
As a leper your sores have been healed.
You’ve puzzled as Nicodemus,
pretended as Pilate and as Lazarus
come forth at His call.

And now getting closer,
you’ve played the dear virgin
and pondered His birth in your heart.

At last are you shorn of
– in one terrible moment –
the last vestige of armor from Truth.
Now call out to God, now call out at last,
the victorious shout of surrender…

Father, into Thy Hands
I command my whole self.
It is finished. It is finished forever.

Up up you arise from the tomb that is earth,
impregnant with light of fulfillment.
Now the veil of your temple is rent
and the dazzling beauty of your sonship
is revealed in full array.
And now the most exciting glorious stupendous surprise there could ever be in all of time:
You’re still you.

All that has happened is that you
have awakened from your fearful dream
of destruction and death.
The earth is over, gone and never was.
You’re home in the heaven you never left.
And every loving thought you ever had
while dreaming is with you still
along with all your other eternal creations.

“We thank our Father for one thing alone; that we are separate from no living thing, and therefore one with Him. And we rejoice that no exceptions ever can be made which would reduce our wholeness, nor impair or change our function to complete the One Who is Himself completion. We give thanks for every living thing, for otherwise we offer thanks for nothing, and we fail to recognize the gifts of God to us.”

This statement from Jesus in A Course in Miracles perfectly expresses my own experience that comes with the dawning of Light in my Mind.  This full, all-encompassing Self-realization for which I am indescribably grateful - that I have been restored to wholeness through the Grace of God, literally raised from death and isolation to Love and Eternal Life, in this single, ongoing miraculous instant of Grace,  and that the whole Sonship is there with me forever, including you!   Having felt the relentless pain of being asleep my own human condition, of always being afraid, uncertain about who I am, what my purpose is, not knowing how to find lasting happiness, and being tossed about in a seeming endless sea of chaos and suffering and death in every form imaginable, it was revealed to me that this devastating and unnatural state was brought about by my own futile attempts to manage and control my “reality,” of willfully denying the communication and sustenance of my very Source of Life.  I suddenly found myself (and find myself consistently) down on my knees in a total cry for help…for release from my impossible thoughts…and for an experience of Self-Knowledge that only comes from the complete act of turning my will and my life over to God.

I am here today to witness for you reading this - that it works!  There really is a whole Loving God, who created you perfectly and eternally, that your Kingdom is really not of this world…and this nightmare that you find yourself in (yes, I know this takes a moment of real honesty to admit this)  - is not God’s Will for you.  It literally is not true…and you need to simply open your mind to the Help that is all around you through the Whole Spirit of Truth - the Holy Spirit - to awaken and be shown the Truth of who you are, as God created you.  And all the fear and suffering and lack of fulfillment that you were dreaming, will literally disappear, never to have been at all.   This is my experience and it is the miracle in action.

I could recount hundreds even thousands of miracle stories and healing experiences that have occurred in me and in all of my brothers along the way home…but in essence, they all share this common element, “I can’t, He Will if I let Him…and there is no order of difficulty in miracles.” When I forget, I am always reminded.   I am so thankful that everything is given me every instant though His Grace and Love, and for every miracle that has and is replacing all of my thoughts of separation, suffering and death…that I am awakening from my nightmare at last!  But finally, my wellspring of boundless gratitude comes from the dawning of Self-knowledge that I experience and that is increased through the continual act of giving it away…of giving as God gives…constantly, indiscriminately, and without demand of any exchange whatsoever.  And so, I learn to keep it in my awareness always, and I come to know myself as His Love extending forever, without opposite, beyond the body, beyond this world and into Eternity, where I truly abide with you.

“Then let our brothers lean their tired heads against our shoulders as they rest a while. We offer thanks for them. For if we can direct them to the peace that we would find, the way is opening at last to us. An ancient door is swinging free again; a long forgotten Word re-echoes in our memory, and gathers clarity, as we are willing once again to hear.

Walk then in gratitude the way of love. For hatred is forgotten when we lay comparisons aside. What more remains as obstacles to peace? The fear of God is now undone at last, and we forgive without comparing. Thus we cannot choose to overlook some things, and yet retain some other things still locked away as sins. When your forgiveness is complete you will have total gratitude, for you will see that everything has earned the right to love by being loving, even as your Self. ”

Thank you for hearing the call to awaken and for answering with me!  The ancient Promise of Salvation is being fulfilled through us, here and now.
I Love you!  * Kristen

If you look honestly upon the world you see, it is certainly obvious that something is very wrong here. Indeed, the human condition is in a severe communication breakdown…you could even call it a state of deep slumber. We seem to be trapped in separate bodies, in an endless cycle of birth, aging, sickness and death, beset by impossible problems, wars, and other devastating tragedies, while feverishly pursuing an often illusive quest for meaning and purpose amongst this backdrop of chaos. Up until this point in our history, we have been content with band-aid solutions; you know…the proverbial “rearranging of the deck chairs on the Titanic.” Until now, we have watched how our so-called “solutions” have always led to more problems or merely a change in their form. Almost everyone has asked the question at some point, where is God in all of this?

In fact, I am sure everyone here has felt the same intense frustration and futility, and thought to themselves… there must be a better way…but how?! What can I possibly do to make a difference? Indeed, that is most likely what brought you here to this website…because you are dedicated to finding a real solution to the pain and conflict of this world, and to fulfill your hearts desire for true peace. It’s not by accident that you are here now, in this place and at this time…where a whole new, miraculous possibility is available. Your prayers for help have been heard …the answer is here!

In the mid 1960’s, a most remarkable event occurred…

Jesus Christ of Nazareth spoke, and gave mankind A Course in Miracles, a revolutionary mind transformation program for the healing and enlightenment of the species.

I am here with A Course in Miracles to demonstrate how to access this ancient yet new technology of thought, that revolutionizes the paradigm of traditional human problem-solving. The technology of this communication is what enlightened teachers have always taught. In fact, A Course In Miracles presents the same illuminate thought system espoused by Jesus, but which extends far beyond all religious boundaries. It was promoted by Socrates, delighted in by the masters of all eastern and western religious traditions, and is advocated, perhaps unknowingly, by present day quantum physicists in the recognition of the unreality of observed form, and the singular, unifying field of energy behind all things.

In essence, this course was sent to open up the path of light to us, and teach us, step by step, how to return to the eternal self we though we lost. It was given in a modern language we can understand, to shed new light on age-old, often mis-interpreted ideas (such as many passages in the Bible). It catalyzes a transformation of our minds and bodies, indeed in our very cellular patterning. This “quickening”, often known as the celestial speedup, is simply a way to save time in this inevitable awakening process. What could have taken thousands of years, can now be done in a single instant through the Grace of God and the mechanism of the miracle, which you are hereby witness to.

What I love most about the Course is that it is a totally reasonable and entirely personal experience. It is recommend that you allow your experience of it to be an intimate and personal encounter with the Truth you have always known, somewhere deep inside you, and an activation of that spark of Light that is at your core, which as it matures, will completely outshine all ideas of darkness and separation in all its forms, for all of time.

After all, at the core of every scientific discovery, at the heart of every theology, past all the doctrinal debates and beyond the conceptual controversy, is a purity of direct God experience, that is the very essence of Truth.

“A universal theology is impossible, but a Universal Experience is not only possible but necessary. It is this experience toward which the Course is directed. Here alone consistency becomes possible because here alone uncertainty ends.”
-A Course in Miracles

To convey the magnitude of this unspeakable experience is to communicate the final quantum leap in our evolutionary destiny, which is characterized by a whole new awareness in our consciousness, transformed and freed from its dependency on the limited paradigm of thought so tragically represented in our history by conflict and suffering.

Never before have we had such a clear blueprint of how the mind works, and such a totally practical, step-by-step procedure for true change…true hope. For the thought system taught in A Course In Miracles, is not based on conceptual content, but only on its release. It is not based on what one is thinking but how one is thinking.

The new documentary film, “A Course in Miracles Unleashed,” though released only just over a year ago by Source Resonance Films, has already been translated into five languages, with more on the way. We recently screened part 2 at the the Parliament of World Religions in Melbourne Australia, which focuses on the power of true forgiveness to transform and heal.  This film is uniquely suited for such a gathering as it documents the spiritual transformation of over 100 ordinary men and women from across the globe, who are actually experiencing this inevitable transformation and expansion of their consciousness revealing a whole new understanding of our Universal relationship.

It is in the LIGHT of this new understanding, where bright innovative solutions are discovered to the devastating problems of human existence that have beset Mankind since the beginning of time. This resolution and reconciliation comes as a direct, energetic experience within YOU…so stay open for that occurrence continuously, and you will be simply amazed.

As I expressed in part 1 of the film, in my awakening, all of the singular teachings suddenly were and are continually fulfilled IN ME…from the Eastern Masters, to the Western Philosophers, from the Persian poets to the New Testament…indeed they were always only mySelf, coming to know the Truth of Who I am, and Who you are along with me. And as this miraculous change occurs in you, your entire world reflects that change. This natural law is not a secret anymore!

Each of the four 45 minute episodes of this unprecedented documentary stands on it’s own as a whole experience, and aims only at offering a rare glimpse into the experience of enlightenment, which awakens us to the present, joyful memory of our oneness and perfection as created by God, offering a proven method of spiritual awakening and rebirth wherein we may share together the miraculous healing power of this courageously simple action of mind, that is the key to true communication and indeed, eternal life. This is the story of those who woke up…it is your story. It is one story told by many voices…The single story of a sojourn into time and the escape from it.

As A Course in Miracles simply states,

“The holiest of all the spots on earth is where an ancient hatred has become a present love.”

“I promise you this…
If you become wholly committed to awakening from the dream you have dreamt since the stars first began to appear in the heavens, and if your one desire is to be only what God created, then lay at the altar of your heart with every breath, everything you think you know, everything you think you need, and look lovingly upon every place that fear has made a home in your mind, and allow correction to come.  It will come.  Regardless of how you experience it, it will come.

And the day and the moment will arise and all of your pain and fear and suffering will have vanished like a wind that pushes the foam of the wave away, revealing the clarity of the ocean beneath you.  You will literally feel throughout your being that there never was a dream.  Some memories might remain with you and you will know that somewhere you must have dreamt a dream or had a thought of wondering what it would be like to be other than the way God created you, but it will be such a faint echo that it will leave no trace upon you.

In your heart you will smile gently regardless of the circumstances in which you find yourself.  There will be peace from the crown of the head to the tips of the toes, and that peace will walk before you wherever you go.  It will enter a room before you enter it with a body, and those who are becoming sensitive will wonder who has come into their place.  And some will even say, “Behold, I believe Christ has come for dinner.”

And you will be that One, for that is who you are - Christ eternal.

-Jeshua
