Awakening Together November Satsang with Jeannie Zandi

November 18, 2024

Jeannie Zandi was our November Satsang guest. She was interviewed by Rev. Anne Blanchard.

Jeannie is the director of Living as Love, a nonprofit organization dedicated to seeding a culture of the Heart on the planet, inspiring, teaching and supporting people to live from their essence as Love. A year before the birth of her daughter, Jeannie was plunged into a dark night of the soul that culminated in a radical shift of consciousness.

She is known for her fearless clarity, tender mercy toward humanness, and a juicy, poetic and often humorous style that draws from Advaita Vedanta, Sufism, Christian mysticism and the ongoing revelation of fully engaged living.

ACIM Manual For Teachers — Section 4.1: What Are the Characteristics of God’s Teachers?

November 17, 2024

What Are the Characteristics of God’s Teachers?

Listen to Mediation Recording.

Jesus introduces us to the 10 characteristics of God’s teachers/ demonstrators. The First is Trust which he says, “…is the foundation on which their ability to fulfill their function rests. Perception is the result of learning. In fact, perception is learning, because cause and effect are never separated. The teachers of God have trust in the world, because they have learned it is not governed by the laws the world made up. It is governed by a power that is in them but not of them. It is this power that keeps all things safe. It is through this power that the teachers of God look on a forgiven world.”

I’ve also included in this meditation the section on the six stages of the Development of Trust. This is the longest section that we will cover in one day.

The Teachings of Inner Ramana came to our founder, Rev. Regina Dawn Akers, in 2009 when she said a prayer asking for something to take her to the next step. It teaches three tools, surrender, mantra and self-inquiry, which work together to help break the addiction to the chattering mind.

In this course you will:

1. Become familiar with surrender as a means of tuning into spiritual intuition for guidance in everyday circumstances.

4. Practice Self-inquiry in order to seek for the true Self.

ACIM Manual For Teachers — Section 3: What Are the Levels of Teachings?

November 16, 2024

What Are the Levels of Teaching?

Listen to Mediation Recording.

In this section Jesus talks about the three levels of teaching/ demonstrating. And he also says, “The teachers of God have no set teaching level. Each teaching-learning situation involves a different relationship at the beginning, although the ultimate goal is always the same; to make of the relationship a holy relationship, in which both can look upon the Son of God as sinless. There is no one from whom a teacher of God cannot learn, so there is no one whom he cannot teach or demonstrate the truth to and for. However, from a practical point of view he cannot meet everyone, nor can everyone find him. Therefore, the plan includes very specific contacts to be made for each teacher of God. There are no accidents in salvation. Those who are to meet will meet, because together they have the potential for a holy relationship. They are ready for each other.”

ACIM Manual For Teachers — Section 1: Who Are God’s Teachers?

November 14, 2024

Who Are God’s Teachers?

Listen to Mediation Recording.

An excerpt from the recording…

“A teacher, a demonstrator, of God is anyone who chooses to be one. ²His qualifications consist solely in this; somehow, somewhere he has made a deliberate choice in which he did not see his interests as apart from someone else’s. Once he has done that, his road is established and his direction is sure. A light has entered the darkness. It may be a single light, but that is enough. He has entered an agreement with God even if he does not yet believe in Him. He has become a bringer of salvation. He has become a demonstrator of God.

They come from all over the world. They come from all religions and from no religion. They are the ones who have answered. The Call is universal. It goes on all the time everywhere.”
