RoundTable Sangha Discussion

Cay Villars was interviewed by Laura Joy Bedford. Cay is a mystic in full devotion to following the Voice of Jesus in the continual celebration of inner Light. Some call this Enlightenment or Union with God. She is called the “laughing mystic” for the joy and sense of humor expressed in Satsang/Joining in Light Sessions.

She began hearing a Voice while volunteering as a behavioral change coach in prisons for men and women in Wisconsin. While studying A Course in Miracles (ACIM) she experienced mystical visions in which Jesus appeared. In the first vision, he gave her the blue Joining in Light image, a symbol of the healing power of joining to quickly release upsets and thus celebrate shared Light within. Jesus taught her to hear and follow His Voice through assignments in India, Portugal, Europe, Mexico, Bali, and Jerusalem.

Her “storyline in the world” included executive coaching, management, marketing, intuitive healer, and scientist, which led to the realization that there is no storyline of more value than the happiness of Divine Being in celebration of all the Love there is.

The symbols of Joining in Light in the form of Light Circles and Jesus: A New Covenant ACIM, a message to ACIM Students JANC ACIM) were extended to Cay in mystical visions and conversations with Jesus–the Voice for God. Yet this is only a reminder that this Voice is available to everyone as everyone is Light, the Light of Love within. JANC ACIM is a message of encouragement to all ACIM students and students of non-duality that Jesus is available to directly support them fully in their path to Enlightenment.

A PDF of JANC ACIM is offered freely on the Joininginlight.net website.  A beautiful full-color printed text is now available on Amazon.

Cay extends Jesus’ teachings that everyone can hear and follow Jesus/the Voice for God as a means to Enlightenment, the complete undoing of the ego to transcend all pain, illness, and suffering of the world. This is the joy and peace that surpasses understanding.

She is Director for the Joining in Light Silent Devotional Center.  The Center is a 501c3 nonprofit devoted to the mystical teachings of Jesus for the release of hidden desires for pain and suffering.  The Center offers daily zoom joining sessions, a phone app, online programs, and in residency Light training programs hearing the Voice for God and quickly releasing hidden subconscious desires to deny Divinity.

Roundtable Sangha Discussion

Contemplate Transcript

Liz Cronkhite was interviewed by Regina Dawn Akers. Through Regina’s line of questioning, Liz jumps right into the deep end reminding us to know the Truth of what we are. Liz speaks about her journey, but reminds us that this path is highly individualized, intensely impersonal and absolutely perfect. She reminds us that our practice keeps the busy mind occupied and allows Grace to do what Grace is doing.

Liz is a spiritual teacher, life coach, and writer, most notably of The Plain Language A Course in Miracles and 4 Habits for Inner Peace. Liz enjoys working one-on-one with students of A Course in Miracles and other nondualistic paths to help them access their inner peace. She emphasizes a direct relationship with Spirit as the way to do this.

In 2018, Liz experienced a moment she calls The Break when existence as she knew it fell away, taking with it the life she had been living. Since that moment, she considers herself to be in an awakened dream. The spirit-centered life she led before, as well as this dramatic shift, are detailed in A Memoir of Christ: A Student of A Course in Miracles Awakens.

Transcript for Louise Kay Satsang

Louise Kay was born in Lancashire, in the northwest of the UK. After graduating from university, she worked as an English teacher for 15 years, and during this time began to question the deeper meaning of life. This led her to the path of spirituality, where she found a strong resonance with the teachings of non-duality.

In her early thirties, Louise felt a deep call in her heart to visit India, where she experienced a profound spiritual awakening. Shortly afterward Louise began channeling and traveled around the world sharing this gift for several years. During this time, she experienced a deepening and integration of her initial spiritual awakening and as she opened more to this non-dual truth the channeling faded away and a new form of expression revealed itself from deep in her heart.

Louise now holds group events and retreats online and around the world. Her passion is to sit together in presence and hold gentle, unconditionally loving space for all emotions, all sensations, and all experiences which arise in the moment in order to support the integration of unresolved energies and allow the unfolding of the divine in all who feel the call.  If you would like to learn more about Louise please visit her website at https://www.louisekay.net/.

Louise Kay was interviewed by Anne Blanchard.

Listen to RoundTable Discussion of Paul Hedderman Satsang

Ron Raitz interviewed Paul Hedderman in our Awakening Together Satsang Program.

Paul has exceptional clarity and a rather unconventional presentation style. Paul writes:

Like it or not, you are what you are looking for. And, I’m telling you, your head does not like it. It would much rather become what you are, than be what you are. … This is like a painting where no paint is applied. It bleeds out. You are in the gallery. You’re surprised seeing its effects. It’s beautiful. Begrudgingly you have to admit you’re traveling lighter. It’s obvious, you had nothing to do with it. That’s the hard pill for it to swallow. It really wants to have something to do with it but it knows that it had nothing to do with it, finally.

Basically in a way, it just moves aside and takes its humble position as the Toyota, not the driver. It doesn’t mean you don’t take care of the Toyota. It’s got its value and you maintain it, but it’s not worshipped or thought about every day. It’s not going to be the chariot of the gods. It will get you to the store for food. — From “On Having Never Left: Volume 1 The Unfinished Works of Paul Hedderman”

We previously had Paul as a Satsang Guest in 2017. That Satsang interview can be found here.
