The Guiding Light ~ Bernadette Roberts #38: Releasing the Body Gradually
Regina Dawn Akers reads selections from books by Bernadette Roberts. The purpose of this inspired book study is to learn from one who walked through the final doorway to no self, no world, no God–Only Reality.
3-1-20 Weekly Gathering: “Letting Life Lead”
Weekly Sunday Gathering with Rev. Gloria Wells
Topic: “Letting Life Lead”
Description: Rev. Gloria shared from her personal experience on letting Reality be as it is because fighting it causes suffering. Also, she shared about the Serenity Prayer. This prayer has been an instrument used in helping her, and a gift she shared with a loved one, in order to focus the mind on something helpful instead of on fear. She also talked about Regina Dawn Aker’s teaching on The Flow and how this teaching allows one to choose with Spirit instead of choosing to fight reality.
Reading: Kathy Smith read from a book called Real, Whole, Here and Happy by James Waite. The Chapter/section is called “Choice Is Not an Option.”

Use the Shall We Dance Playsheet to help you contemplate the movie.
Film Synopsis: John Clark is a man with a wonderful job, a charming wife and a loving family, who nevertheless feels that something is missing as he makes his way every day through the city. Each evening on his commute home, John sees a beautiful woman, staring with a lost expression through the window of a dance studio. Haunted by her gaze, John impulsively jumps off the train one night, and signs up for dance lessons, hoping to meet her. At first, it seems like a mistake. But, as his lessons continue, John falls in love with dancing. Keeping his new obsession from his family and co-workers, John feverishly trains for Chicago’s biggest dance competition.

Gentle Healing Year 3 ~ Daily Contemplation #382
Please read quotes 1316-1318 in The Seven Steps to Awakening with your inner teacher. Here is the last quote:
The mind which attends to Self is no more the mind; it is the consciousness aspect of Self! Likewise, so long as it attends to the second and third persons (the world), it is not the consciousness aspect of Self; it is the mind.
Note: The next Daily Contemplation will be available tomorrow morning after 2am ET at this link.
Shawna’s Gentle Healing Year 1 Group Tip for Lesson 33
Tip for Lesson 33 and beyond:
Today we are doing the meditation, “There is another way of looking at the world.” As you do the meditation, the ego may utilize a trick. The trick is letting the lesson slide back and be repeated in the background of attention while thoughts sneak forward to reclaim the foreground of attention. Be aware of this and do not let it happen. Put your heart on the lesson so it remains in the foreground as you survey thoughts, which should be at a further distance.
Lesson in the foreground. Thoughts at a distance.
It is as if you are at the movies. The lesson is closer to you, a part of you. The thoughts are out there on the screen. This promotes genuine healing.
Also, take this tip from NTI Colossians 3 with you for all of our workbook lessons:
May you practice your lessons in this way:
~Be grateful for the truth that you know.
~Practice it with Wisdom, and pray that more truth be given.
~Be grateful to your brothers who show you what you have learned.
~Welcome your lessons in vigor, that you may grow in mastery of the way.
~Embrace all that you see, knowing it comes from you.
~Correct that which needs correction.
~And immerse the mind in the reflection of truth.
Gentle Healing Year 3 ~ Daily Contemplation #381
Please read quotes 1314-1315 in The Seven Steps to Awakening with your inner teacher. Here is the last quote:
There are two kinds of impediments which act as obstacles for the mind to achieve Self-abidance, and hence two kinds of strength of mind are essential for overcoming them. The first strength is that which is required to prevent the mind from branching out into innumerable thoughts through the force of tendencies towards the sense-objects. The second strength is that which is required to direct the mind (the power of attention) towards the first person or Self, that is, the strength actually to attend to Self.
Note: The next Daily Contemplation will be available tomorrow morning after 2am ET at this link.
Brief Member Meeting to Share the 2019 Financial Report ~ Sunday, March 1 at 8pm ET
Gentle Healing Year 3 ~ Daily Contemplation #380
Please read quotes 1310-1313 in The Seven Steps to Awakening with your inner teacher. Here is the last quote:
You dissipate your desire for the Self by undertaking all kinds of useless activities that waste your time and lead to attachments. You think that your life is endless and that you can put off meditation till a later date. With this kind of attitude, you will die filled with regrets, not filled with peace.
Note: The next Daily Contemplation will be available tomorrow morning after 2am ET at this link.
