All welcome! \n\n\n\nWe are elucidating very singularly\, the teachings of A Course in Miracles\, and undertaking that journey without distance\, from darkness to light\, from fear to love and into the eternal miracle of the present\, where the power and simplicity of true forgiveness is understood directly. \n\n\n\nA Course in Miracles offers those willing\, a complete re-association of identity\, transcending the seeming reality of the ego and all that is unreal\, and re-discovering the illuminate mind of Christ as our One reality in God. Awareness of this Self is salvation and the single existential solution to the inherent problem of suffering in the world and the human condition. The miracle is this remembering. \n\n\n\nWe recognize the need for individual healing and for awakening from all false beliefs in separation. We are illuminating the practice\, principles and essential experience of the spiritual mind-training of A Course in Miracles. \n\n\n\nTrue forgiveness is a lesson found in all things and all situations. These lessons are convincing restatements of the inherent sinless nature of the mind\, wherein its power and holiness are restored and the thought-system of the ego undone. This is the healing of the mind by accepting responsibility for causation within and opening the hidden altar where God’s peace and truth are found to abide untouched by time or circumstance. \n\n\n\n\n“The miracle reminds you of a Cause forever present\, perfectly untouched by time and interference. Never changed from what It is. And you are Its Effect\, as changeless and as perfect as Itself. Its memory does not lie in the past\, nor waits the future. It is not revealed in miracles. They but remind you that It has not gone. When you forgive It for your sins\, It will no longer be denied.” ACIM T.28.I.9 \n\n\n\n\n\n\nwith Simon Christopher \n\n\n\nThis is an invitation to join us in the illuminate\, spiritual mind-training of A Course in Miracles\, and the passionate certainty of your awakening to the reality of eternal life! \n\n\n\nCome and discover the power and simplicity of the miracle of true forgiveness. And we will celebrate together\, the healing of the mind to a whole new identity in the celestial order of perfection and love. \n\n\n\n“Christ has come to search the world for what belongs to Him. His vision sees no strangers\, but beholds His Own and joyously unites with them.”  W.160 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease use this Contact form to request the Zoom video link to join this evenings online session with Simon.

Esto es imprescindible para comprender el papel del verdadero perdón en la trascendencia del ego y la realización de lo inmortal. \n\n\n\nEs a través del abandono completo del ataque que se eliminan los obstáculos para unirse a la resurrección. Las lecciones de la crucifixión presentan una clase magistral sobre cómo «enseñar solo amor» en respuesta a la persecución y al ataque\, demostrando la perfecta indefensión de la mente sanada. \n\n\n\nEstamos descubriendo el camino\, siguiendo el ejemplo de Cristo Jesús como nuestro modelo para el viaje transformador de superar el ego y todas sus obras. \n\n\n\nLa resurrección en sí misma es una llamada a lo eterno\, a dejar atrás el mundo de la muerte y entregar nuestra lealtad a Dios y a Su Reino. Estaremos juntos en el paraíso llevando con nosotros a nuestros hermanos en la visión de su perfecta impecabilidad. ¡No podemos entrar en el Cielo solos! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Durante estas Pascuas contempla a tu hermano con otros ojos. Tú me has perdonado ya. Sin embargo\, no puedo hacer uso de tu regalo de azucenas mientras tú no las veas. Ni tú puedes hacer.” \n\n\n\nUCDM  Texto 20.II.6 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLa vida que compartimos con Dios es nuestra única realidad\, que se encuentra tanto aquí\, en el presente\, como más allá de los fenómenos percibidos del estado objetivo del sueño. Para alcanzar este objetivo\, hemos sido llamados a aceptar el santo propósito del verdadero perdón como nuestra única función y el medio de nuestra salvación en Cristo. Es nuestro único propósito\, nuestra única necesidad\, nuestra directriz principal y nuestra responsabilidad\, porque reconocemos que es la única ilusión que provoca la desaparición de todas las ilusiones que nunca existieron. \n\n\n\nRecurrimos al poder y la agencia del Espíritu Santo\, el gran transformador de percepciones\, y elegimos dejar que Él guíe nuestras mentes hacia el reconocimiento de nuestra verdadera identidad como uno en Cristo. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“No nos pasemos esta Semana Santa lamentando la crucifixión del Hijo de Dios\, sino celebrando jubilosamente su liberación. Pues la Pascua de Resurrección es el signo de la paz\, no del dolor. Un Cristo asesinado no tiene sentido. Pero un Cristo resucitado se convierte en el símbolo de que el Hijo de Dios se ha perdonado a sí mismo; en la señal de que se considera a sí mismo sano e íntegro. \n\n\n\nEsta semana celebramos la vida\, no la muerte. Y honramos la perfecta pureza del Hijo de Dios\, no sus pecados. Hazle a tu hermano la ofrenda de las azucenas\, no la de una corona de espinas; el regalo del amor\, no el “regalo” del miedo. \n\n\n\nEn esta Pascua quisiera recibir el don de tu perdón\, ofrecido por ti a mí y devuelto por mí a ti. No podemos unirnos en la crucifixión ni en la muerte. Ni tampoco puede consumarse la resurrección hasta que tu perdón descanse sobre Cristo\, junto con el mío.” \n\n\n\nUCDM  Texto 20.I.1-2 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEl amor de Dios nos rodea y su gracia es nuestra cuando contemplamos la provisión divinamente orquestada para tu iluminación en Cristo en las enseñanzas de Un curso de milagros. \n\n\n\nA medida que aprendemos a escuchar\, oír y seguir al Maestro de Dios dentro y fuera de nosotros\, nos embarcamos en el descubrimiento del significado del perdón completo y el recuerdo del Hijo\, el Ser eterno\, uno en la resurrección con Cristo Jesús. \n\n\n\nAbre tu mente al universo vivo de la verdad que nos llama a volver al lugar donde estamos en Casa\, en la incomparable y gozosa autorrealización del Amor perfecto de Dios. ¡Amén! \n\n\n\nTe invitamos a ponerte en contacto con nosotros para obtener más detalles o realizar cualquier pregunta. \n\n\n\nLas consultas y reservas ya están abiertas\, ponte en contacto con Rosa – +34 678 281 610 o envía un correo electrónico a asociacionucdm@gmail.com\, o si no\, utiliza este formulario de contacto para comunicarte con nosotros. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Si al mirar entre los níveos pétalos de las azucenas que has recibido y ofrecido como tu regalo vislumbras tras el velo la faz de Cristo\, estarás contemplando la faz de tu hermano y reconociéndola. \n\n\n\nLa temporada de Pascua es una temporada de júbilo\, no de duelo. Contempla a tu Amigo resucitado y celebra su santidad junto conmigo. Pues la Pascua es la temporada de tu salvación\, junto con la mía.“ \n\n\n\nUCDM  Texto 20.I.4 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTen en cuenta que este no es un «Festival para Un Curso de Milagros»\, sino que está dirigido a aquellas personas\, estudiantes y profesores de Un curso de milagros que desean centrarse en el mensaje de la resurrección y experimentar la necesidad transformadora fundamental de aceptar la Palabra de Dios a través de este plan de estudios único sobre la expiación. Se trata del reconocimiento de que se nos está mostrando literalmente el camino hacia la inmortalidad\, el fin de los sueños de sufrimiento y muerte hacia la paz de Cristo\, al darnos cuenta de la naturaleza de nuestra realidad eterna en Dios. \n\n\n\nHay una alegría incomparable cuando cada uno aprende la humildad de aceptar las directrices de la Voz de Dios\, el Maestro cuyas lecciones sencillas e inquebrantables de perdón completo nos llevan a nuestra resurrección individual. Aquí reside nuestro viaje de regreso a lo eterno\, que se nos ha dado en este plan de estudios divinamente orquestado: el plan de Dios para la salvación del hombre resucitado\, Cristo Jesús; hermano mayor\, Maestro\, y uno con nosotros en propósito\, en paz\, en certeza y perfección. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“La Pascua no es la celebración del costo del pecado\, sino la celebración de su final.“ \n\n\n\nUCDM  Texto 20.I.4 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNos reunimos en un santuario dedicado al descubrimiento de las enseñanzas de Un Curso de Milagros y a tu inevitable transformación espiritual y despertar en Cristo. En este lugar\, en este momento\, se te ofrece un refugio para la creciente conciencia de tu profundo amor por Dios y la certeza de que eres amado por Él como Su Única Creación. Este es un centro de retiro y un santuario para la sanación de la mente en Dios y tu realización natural y evolutiva de que permaneces ahora\, como siempre ha sido\, perfecto\, sanado y completo\, en santidad y paz sin límites como Dios te creó.CV-655\, Km 10\, Ontinyent\, Valencia 46870 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Yo era un extraño y tú me acogiste\, a pesar de que no sabías quién era.

This is the imperative for understanding the role of true forgiveness in transcending the ego and realising the immortal. \n\n\n\nIt is through the complete relinquishment of attack that the obstacles to joining the resurrection are undone. The lessons of the crucifixion present a master class in how to “teach only love” in response to persecution and attack\, demonstrating the perfect defenselessness of the healed mind. We are discovering the way\, following the example of Christ Jesus as our model for the transformative journey of overcoming the ego and all its works. \n\n\n\nThe resurrection itself is a call to the eternal\, to leave the world of death behind and give our allegiance to God and His Kingdom. We will be together in paradise by taking our brothers with us in the vision of their perfect sinlessness. We cannot enter Heaven alone! \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“This Easter\, look with different eyes upon your brother. You have forgiven me. And yet I cannot use your gift of lilies while you see them not. Nor can you use what I have given unless you share it.” \n\n\n\nJesus speaking to us in A Course In Miracles -Text 20.II.6 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe life we share with God is our one reality that lies both here within the present\, and beyond the perceived phenomena of the objective dream state. To realise this goal we have been called to accept the holy purpose of true forgiveness as our only function and the means of our salvation in Christ. It is our one purpose\, our entire need\, primary directive and responsibility\, for we recognize it as the one illusion that brings about the undoing of all illusions that never were. \n\n\n\nWe turn to the power and agency of Holy Spirit\, the great transformer of perceptions\, and choose to let Him lead our minds back to the recognition of our true identity as one in Christ. \n\n\n\nEnquiries and bookings now open. Please use this Contact form to get in touch.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“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 on himself; the sign he looks upon himself as healed and whole. \n\n\n\nThis week we celebrate life\, not death. And we honor the perfect purity of the Son of God\, and not his sins. Offer your brother the gift of lilies\, not the crown of thorns; the gift of love and not the “gift” of fear. \n\n\n\nThis Easter I would have the gift of your forgiveness offered by you to me\, and returned by me to you. We cannot be united in crucifixion and in death. Nor can the resurrection be complete till your forgiveness rests on Christ\, along with mine.” \n\n\n\nJesus speaking to us in A Course In Miracles – Text 20.I.1 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGod’s love is all around us and His grace is ours as we look to the divinely orchestrated provision for your illumination in Christ in the teachings of A Course in Miracles. \n\n\n\nAs we learn to listen\, to hear and follow God’s Teacher within and without\, we undertake the discovery of the meaning of complete forgiveness and the memory of the Son\, the eternal Self\, one in the resurrection with Christ Jesus. \n\n\n\nOpen your mind to the living universe of truth that calls us back to where we are at Home in the incomparably joyful self-realization of the perfect Love of God. Amen! \n\n\n\nPlease feel welcome to get in touch through this Contact form for more details or with any questions. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“If you see glimpses of the face of Christ behind the veil\, looking between the snow-white petals of the lilies you have received and given as your gift\, you will behold your brother’s face and recognize it… \n\n\n\nThe time of Easter is a time of joy\, and not of mourning. Look on your risen Friend\, and celebrate his holiness along with me. For Easter is the time of your salvation\, along with mine.” \n\n\n\nJesus speaking to us in A Course In Miracles – Text 20.I.4 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease note\, this is not a “Festival for A Course in Miracles”\, it is for those individuals\, students and teachers of A Course in Miracles who wish to focus on the message of the resurrection and to experience the very fundamental transformative necessity of accepting the Word of God through this unique Atonement curriculum. This is the recognition that we are literally being shown the way to immortality\, the end of dreams of suffering and death into the peace of Christ\, in realisation of the nature of our eternal reality in God. \n\n\n\nThere is incomparable joy as each one learns the humility to take directives from the Voice for God\, the Teacher whose simple and uncompromising lessons of complete forgiveness bring about our individual resurrection. Herein lies our journey of return to the eternal\, given to us in this divinely orchestrated curriculum\, – God’s plan for salvation from the resurrected man\, Christ Jesus; elder brother\, Master Teacher\, and one with us in purpose\, in peace\, in certainty and perfection. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Easter is not the celebration of the cost of sin\, but of its end.“ \n\n\n\nText 20.I.4 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe are meeting in a dedicated sanctuary for the discovery of the teachings of A Course in Miracles and your inevitable transformative spiritual awakening in Christ. In this place\, at this time\, you are afforded a refuge for the burgeoning awareness of your deep love for God and the certainty that you are beloved of Him as His One Creation. This is a centre for retreat and a sanctuary for the healing of the mind in God and your natural\, evolutionary realization that you remain now\, as you have always been\, perfect\, healed and whole\, in holiness and peace without limit as God created you to be.International Spiritual Retreat and Healing Sanctuary of the Association for Discovering A Course in Miracles.Carretera de Onteniente a Fontanares:CV.655.

Is not freedom\, finally simply being yourself? To be yourself is to know your Self and your Source. Freedom lies in laying aside the little self-will and accepting the Will you share with God as all there is and all you want to be. \n\n\n\nFor the ego it is inherently difficult\, this act of surrender and acceptance in letting this be true\, for it is its whole undoing. Only in God\, the wholly unlimited\, can we find our Will and our freedom\, its creative and limitless power\, and its everlasting joy. Upon examination what is mistakenly called by freedom’s name is tinged with fear\, restrictive\, conditional or limited\, coming at great effort or cost. Freedom can be found only in the Eternal and unlimited nature of Mind untouched by the dark dream of sin\, fear and guilt. \n\n\n\n\n“And now the ego is afraid. Yet what it hears in terror\, the other part hears as the sweetest music; the song it longed to hear since first the ego came into your mind. The ego’s weakness is its strength. The song of freedom\, which sings the praises of another world\, brings to it hope of peace. For it remembers Heaven\, and now it sees that Heaven has come to earth at last\, from which the ego’s rule has kept it out so long. Heaven has come because it found a home in your relationship on earth. And earth can hold no longer what has been given Heaven as its own.“ACIM Text 21.IV.7 \n\n\n\n\nFreedom is a state that pre-exists the state of separation\, before the body\, before the choice to identify with the ego. The way back to that state lies in the plan set forth in the mind-training curriculum of A Course in Miracles. Spirit is ever free\, yet the mind has lost its way in ever tightening circles of defense against reality. \n\n\n\nThis Course has come to save time by offering a plan to follow\, established through the accomplishment of the resurrection. The means of undoing the bondage to illusions and the love of sacrifice\, in the mind\, is provided unambiguously. Many practices are offered to bring about experience in which to place our faith and step forward\, away from the imprisonment of our wills\, towards the light and our freedom and release. \n\n\n\nIn this place\, at this time we unite in a single desire to examine the dilemma of being created free yet knowing only an objective prison in which we live and die. Here we will look at the meaning of freedom and reason will help guide us to see the way to its re-discovery through undoing and acceptance. \n\n\n\nWe will no longer fear our Will but see that in it lies our freedom from the illusions we held ourselves subject to. For if we remain bound there is no freedom to be found. Yet in the holy instant\, the timeless now\, we are free to change our mind about ourselves and to awaken the truth that we are free\, created in freedom\, eternally established there. Now we are free to be as God has willed His Son to be\, forever like Himself. And now the song of freedom is heard again around the universe\, the sound of the Eternal calling to Itself. \n\n\n\n\n“The miracle teaches you that you have chosen guiltlessness\, freedom and joy. It is not a cause\, but an effect. It is the natural result of choosing right\, attesting to your happiness that comes from choosing to be free of guilt.“ ACIM Text 14.III.4 \n\n\n\n\nIlluminate Mind Foundation offers a continuing programme of instruction in the teachings and practices of A Course in Miracles\, designed to foster the awakening of the light in which we find complete freedom to be ourselves as we liberate our minds from mistaken ideas about what freedom is and where to seek it.  \n\n\n\nGod’s love is all around us and His grace is ours as we look to the divinely organized Atonement curriculum of A Course in Miracles\, and undertake to learn the happy lessons of true forgiveness which lead us back to where we are at Home in the holiness of the Present State\, which is the Heaven of His perfect love. Amen! \n\n\n\n\n“Think of the freedom in the recognition that you are not bound by all the strange and twisted laws you have set up to save yourself. For you are under no laws except Gods.” ACIM Lesson 76 \n\n\n\n\n\n\nwith Simon Christopher \n\n\n\nThis is an invitation to join us in the illuminate\, spiritual mind-training of A Course in Miracles\, and the passionate certainty of your awakening to the reality of eternal life! \n\n\n\nCome and discover the power and simplicity of the miracle of true forgiveness. And we will celebrate together\, the healing of the mind to a whole new identity in the celestial order of perfection and love. \n\n\n\n“Christ has come to search the world for what belongs to Him. His vision sees no strangers\, but beholds His Own and joyously unites with them.”  W.160 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Who can be born again in Christ but him who has forgiven everyone he sees or thinks of or imagines? … Who could be set free while he imprisons anyone?… it is on his freedom that the way to liberty depends for both of them. Therefore\, hold no one prisoner. Release instead of bind\, for thus are you made free.” ACIM Lesson 192 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAmmerdown Centre \n\n\n\nWe will be hosted in this welcoming Interfaith conference and retreat centre\, – a sanctuary of hospitality\, peace and reconciliation set in the heart of the beautiful Somerset countryside .  \n\n\n\nThe Ammerdown Centre is a Christian foundation for spiritual renewal\, interfaith dialogue\, and reconciliation set in Radstock village\, just 12 miles south of Bath.

Amen! \n\n\n\n\nOur relationship\, transformed in a true purpose\, is the altar on which the light of Christ is revealed. A holy instant where we are reborn to grandeur and abide in peace together. \n\n\n\nLet us join in honoring God’s Son\, and the light that leads beyond the body\, beyond all things perceived\, to the eternal\, and the awareness of the perfect light of Christ. The Father calls to the Son to hear His Word and awaken from the inconscient drama of separation to know again the joy of eternal being. God’s gift He gives to each one who walks apart\, the memory of their true identity in Him. \n\n\n\nAnd now the light has come to shine away all false ideas and welcome this holy birth; the miracle that heals the mind in truth to bring salvation to all the world. \n\n\n\n\n“There is a Child in you Who seeks His Father’s house\, and knows that He is alien here. This childhood is eternal\, with an innocence that will endure forever. Where this Child shall go is holy ground. It is His Holiness that lights up Heaven\, and that brings to earth the pure reflection of the light above\, wherein are earth and Heaven joined as one.“ACIM Lesson 182.4 \n\n\n\n\nBroadcast over Zoom video.

A journey of healing and awakening\, – transcending the body and the body-mind in the light of true forgiveness\, and a holy reunion with your immortal Self. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA weekend group experience on the essential teachings\, principles and practice of A Course in Miracles\, in a joyfully focused healing sanctuary for awakening the awareness of Spirit as the knowledge and the experience of our true identity in the  immortal reality of Christ. With Simon Christopher in Ealing\, West London. \n\n\n\nNovember 28th Friday evening – 7 – 9.00pmNovember 29th  & 30th Saturday & Sunday – 10:00am to 5:30pm daily \n\n\n\nThese teachings\, offered for your healing\, awakening and illumination of mind are centred around the correction of the major mis-identification of the self with the body. The greatest lesson offered is to perceive the body correctly\, and to no longer be held hostage to its limitations and the beliefs that are anchored in this unreasonable view. We will be examining the record\, the mind\, the dynamics that uphold the lie that the body is the self. We provide practices aimed at freeing the mind and empowering the decision-maker to understand the issue\, the difficulties and the simplicity of the solution. It is the greatest undertaking\, to see the obstacle as self-made and without meaning. It takes great learning\, vigilance and clarity of mind. Yet each holy instant contains our escape from illusions and freedom from suffering\, the unfortunate mis-identification with illusions as real brings. God’s peace and joy are ours in the unlimited nature of the reality of our true identity in Christ. This knowledge is our salvation from continuing dreams\, awakening the certainty of Spirit as the immortal nature of the One Self. \n\n\n\n\n“The body is a tiny fence around a little part of a glorious and complete idea.  It draws a circle\, infinitely small\, around a very little segment of Heaven\, splintered from the whole\, proclaiming that within it is your kingdom\, where God can enter not.” ACIM T.18.VIII.2 \n\n\n\n\nBeyond the body is the resurrection and the reality of immortal life. It is not found in anything that can be perceived\, or conceived of. Yet the reality of the Self that is not divided\, separated and bounded by a wall of flesh\, is your divine inheritance. It can be known by all who desire to go beyond the petty ways of the world of bodies\, limitations\, suffering and death. Now is the time of awakening as we seek to see the light beyond the body\, to reach out and experience the holy truth of this instant of release. For all those who would arise in Christ\, their lessons of forgiveness teach the mind directly about the mind. It has suffered for so long having identified with what can suffer\, the limited and ephemeral\, and with the world which upholds the laws of the body.  \n\n\n\nWhen asked by the Scribe of the Course about the resurrection\, Jesus answered\, “my body disappeared because I no longer held any illusions about it.” So\, for the individual aspirant\, the student of miracles\, it would be perfectly fair to state that the purpose of the plan of salvation is to relinquish the belief the body has any value or existence. In effect it takes great learning (“unlearning”) to understand and to accept the body’s nothingness. In this lesson lies the separation of our minds from the fundamental illusion on which the ego rests. It’s the lesson that removes the fear of redemption and clears the way to approach the innermost altar to holiness where the Father and the Son are one in perfect union with Creation. \n\n\n\n\n“The body is outside you\, and but seems to surround you\, shutting you off from others and keeping you apart from them\, and them from you. It is not there. There is no barrier between God and His Son\, nor can His Son be separated from Himself except in illusions. This is not his reality\, though he believes it is.“ACIM T.18.VI.9 \n\n\n\n\nIlluminate Mind Foundation offers a continuing programme of instruction in the teachings and practices of A Course in Miracles\, designed to foster the awakening of the light in which we find our freedom to utilize the means to go beyond the body\, to overlook the fundamental illusion and join in the golden light of Christ where our salvation lies. \n\n\n\nGod’s love is all around us and His grace is ours as we look to the divinely organized Atonement curriculum of A Course in Miracles\, and undertake to learn the happy lessons of true forgiveness which lead us back to where we are at Home in the Present State\, which is the Heaven of His perfect love. Amen! \n\n\n\nFeel welcome to sign up to receive our bulletin from the link on our Home page\, and we’ll be happy to keep you informed about our programme. \n\n\n\nPlease use this contact form to let us know of your interest in participating\, or if you have any questions. \n\n\n\n\n“The body neither lives nor dies\, because it cannot contain you who are life.”ACIM T.6.V.A-1 \n\n\n\n\n\n\nwith Simon Christopher \n\n\n\nThis is an invitation to join us in the illuminate\, spiritual mind-training of A Course in Miracles\, and the passionate certainty of your awakening to the reality of eternal life! \n\n\n\nCome and discover the power and simplicity of the miracle of true forgiveness.

With Simon Christopher in Ealing\, West London. \nSaturday & Sunday\, November 1st & 2nd – 10:00am to 5:30pm daily. \nThe peace of God is our one goal\, our purpose and function\, the aim of all our efforts and the end we seek. God’s peace is already ours yet is veiled behind false beliefs which are cherished in its place. Now is the time in which we determine\, through realisation\, understanding and acceptance\, that there is no peace to be found anywhere except we look within and lay down our defenses to the great peace that shines with perfect constancy within.  \nThe obstacles to the knowledge of God’s peace are all overcome in the same way. We learn to see the obstacles for what they are as guardians against the Truth.  A conscious decision can then be made to accept the Help we need to choose the conditions in which peace comes of itself because we have done nothing to keep it away. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Deny me not the little gift I ask\, when in exchange I lay before your feet the peace of God\, and power to bring this peace to everyone who wanders in the world uncertain\, lonely\, and in constant fear.“ACIM T.3.VIII.7 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPeace is the condition in which knowledge of God is remembered. Therefore this is a course in choosing peace\, choosing over and over in all temptations to feel upset\, to attack\, condemn or see oneself as attacked. Peace must be a total choice because the choice against peace has already been established in the mind and now we choose again. First we remove the cause of conflict and upset\, then the dream becomes free of upset. \nPeace and serenity\, along with power and holiness become the experience while the dream still seems to have reality. Finally the dream is transformed to reveal what lies beyond as illusions give way to truth. This is our journey without distance in our return to the holy state of oneness\, in which no illusions can appear that could be seen to stand before the light of Heaven and our eternal reality in God. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“You who are part of God are not at home except in His peace. If peace is eternal\, you are at home only in eternity.” ACIM T.5.III.10 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIlluminate Mind Foundation offers a continuing programme of instruction in the teachings and practices of A Course in Miracles\, designed to foster the awakening of the light in which we find our freedom to utilize the means to go beyond the body\, to overlook the fundamental illusion and join in the golden light of Christ where our salvation lies. \nGod’s love is all around us and His grace is ours as we look to the divinely organized Atonement curriculum of A Course in Miracles\, and undertake to learn the happy lessons of true forgiveness which lead us back to where we are at Home in the Present State\, which is the Heaven of His perfect love. Amen! \nFeel welcome to sign up to receive our bulletin from the link on our Home page\, and we’ll be happy to keep you informed about our programme. \nPlease use this contact form to let us know of your interest in participating\, or if you have any questions. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“The Will of God is One and all there is. This is your heritage. The universe beyond the sun and stars\, and all the thoughts of which you can conceive\, belongs to you. God’s peace is the condition for His Will. Attain His peace\, and you remember Him.” ACIM M.20.6 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nwith Simon Christopher \n\n\n\nThis is an invitation to join us in the illuminate\, spiritual mind-training of A Course in Miracles\, and the passionate certainty of your awakening to the reality of eternal life! \n\n\n\nCome and discover the power and simplicity of the miracle of true forgiveness.

Dios hace que esto sea posible… Acepta\, pues\, lo inmutable. Deja el mundo de la muerte atrás\, y regresa al Cielo en paz. Aquí no hay nada que tenga valor; todo lo que tiene valor se encuentra en el Cielo. Escucha al Espíritu Santo\, y a Dios a través de Él. Él te habla de ti.

From being a hostage to the ego\, to the joyful certainty of being host to God and the freedom of serving only Spirit. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA 9-day residential retreat experience with Simon Christopher at the Centre for Discovering A Course in Miracles\, Ontinyent (Valencia) Spain. \nWe’ll be meeting in Spain for this retreat in the hills outside Valencia in our dedicated sanctuary for the enlightening message of the Atonement curriculum of A Course in Miracles.The miracle worker escapes the heavy burden of guilt by teaching only innocence and denying guilt everywhere\, in all its forms. The newly emerging teacher of God learns to serve the Spirit\, to heal themselves and awaken to the incomparable joy of Christ\, wherein lies the eternal reality of our incorruptible true identity. God is a fact and His Son is One with Him in all ways and forever. \nThis is a unique opportunity to join a joyfully focused group experience to accelerate your acceptance of the Atonement curriculum and the inevitability of your awakening as the light of the world and your continuing journey of self-realization to a true identity in Christ. All welcome! \nWhat changes are required in the development of trust and the call to evolve and mature in our new vocation as a teacher of God? Does the individual miracle worker undergo mental\, physical\, emotional and energetic changes with the healing of their perceptions and thought system? What is the extraordinary metamorphosis that takes place as God’s miracle workers advance in their vocation? This retreat programme will consider and answer all these questions in a very personal encounter with the uncompromising certainty of the very singular nature of resurrected mind. \nWe may have been delayed\, confused\, distracted or simply wrong about salvation. None of that matters now\, because the time is at hand in this place\, where you are afforded the miracles that bring with them the realisation of the end of time\, expanding awareness into the unlimited moment of freedom\, and the perfect stillness of the peace of God. \nEnquiries and bookings now open\, please use the Contact form to get in touch.  \n\n\n\n\n\n“The only part of your mind that has reality is the part that links you still with God. Would you have all of it transformed into a radiant message of God’s Love\, to share with all the lonely ones who have denied Him? God makes this possible… Accept\, then\, the immutable. Leave the world of death behind\, and return quietly to Heaven. There is nothing of value here\, and everything of value there. Listen to the Holy Spirit\, and to God through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is no guilt in you\, for God is blessed in His Son as the Son is blessed in Him.” ACIM Text 14.V.1 \n\n\n\n\n\nIt is through following the plan of Atonement and accepting its direct lessons in forgiveness and healing that we are changed. In listening to the Guide Who speaks for truth\, each one is led on a journey through this metamorphosis of identity. This self embodies the Will of God and finds within themselves a transmutation is taking place. Lessons in Trust lead us away from fear and into the power of the holy and eternal instant of Christ’s being.  And as the happy learners of salvation our minds are inevitably transformed into a radiant message of innocence and joy which we naturally share with all those we meet. God’s miracle workers place their trust in the divine agency of Holy Spirit\, they have stepped back and now let Him lead the way to peace and union. All the power and agency of the Holy Spirit is now theirs. \n\n\n\n\n\n“Give welcome to the power beyond forgiveness\, and beyond the world of symbols and of limitations. He would merely be\, and so He merely is… A power wholly limitless has come\, not to destroy\, but to receive its own... The choice you fear to lose you never had. Yet only this appears to interfere with power unlimited and single thoughts\, complete and happy\, without opposite. You do not know the peace of power that opposes nothing. Yet no other kind can be at all. ”  ACIM Text 27.III.7 \n\n\n\n\n\nThis is an invitation to a continuing programme of instruction and practices designed to foster the awakening experience. Healed perception is the result of honest learning\, consistency of effort\, and willingness to accept the foundational lesson of the Atonement principle. Complete forgiveness is the greatest and ultimate lesson\, for the Spirit of holiness teaches that salvation is without delay. To have\, give all to all without reservation or exception\, for both giving and receiving are simultaneous and immediate.  \nPlease feel welcome to find out more! \nGod’s love is all around us and His grace is ours as we look to the divinely orchestrated provision of the treasure teachings of A Course in Miracles. As we learn to listen\, to hear and follow God’s Teacher\, we undertake the discovery of the meaning of complete forgiveness. The mind opens to the living universe of truth\, calling us back to where we are at Home in the incomparably joyful self-realization of the perfect Love of God. Amen! \nPlease feel welcome to get in touch through this Contact form for details or with any questions. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nwith Simon Christopher \n\n\n\nThis is an invitation to join us in the illuminate\, spiritual mind-training of A Course in Miracles\, and the passionate certainty of your awakening to the reality of eternal life! \n\n\n\nCome and discover the power and simplicity of the miracle of true forgiveness. And we will celebrate together\, the healing of the mind to a whole new identity in the celestial order of perfection and love. \n\n\n\n“Christ has come to search the world for what belongs to Him. His vision sees no strangers\, but beholds His Own and joyously unites with them.”  W.160 \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“The teacher of God is a miracle worker because he gives the gifts he has received. Yet he must first accept them. He need do no more\, nor is there more that he could do. By accepting healing he can give it… Doubt not the gift and it is impossible to doubt its result. This is the certainty that gives God’s teachers the power to be miracle workers\, for they have put their trust in Him.” ACIM Manual 7.4 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Teachers of innocence\, each in his own way\, have joined together\, taking their part in the unified curriculum of the Atonement… Each effort made on its behalf is offered for the single purpose of release from guilt\, to the eternal glory of God and His creation. And every teaching that points to this points straight to Heaven\, and the peace of God. There is no pain\, no trial\, no fear that teaching this can fail to overcome. The power of God Himself supports this teaching\, and guarantees its limitless results.” ACIM Text 14.V.6 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe have been revolutionized to a spontaneously creative self-identitythrough the power of singular Universal Reality. \nIt is always initially astonishing to a newly awakened Teacher of God to discover that the manner in which he thinks has undergone a radical transformation. \nHis former limited consciousness construct finally had nothing to do with the complete exposé. He stands naked with his own certainty. \nHe has lost the capacity for specific comparison. The wholeness of his thinking inevitably makes the objective rationale of limited consciousness seem absurd. \nHe is thrust into the position of seeing that his former value system\, based on specific conclusions arrived at by comparison and analysis\, has no validity or even reality. He finds himself in an illogical\, unreasonable place. \nHe must now deal with his absolute unqualified certainty that this objectively constructed world is totally meaningless\, except to the necessity of bringing about the revelation that established his own transcending consciousness.  with love from Master Teacher URL:https://illuminatemind.net/events/the-metamorphosis-of-gods-miracle-worker/ LOCATION:Spiritual Retreat and Healing Sanctuary of the Association for Discovering A Course in Miracles\, km 10 CV-655\, Ontinyent\, Valencia\, 46870\, Spain CATEGORIES:Retreat,Simon Christopher,Spain ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://illuminatemind.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/The-metamorphosis2-1.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Holly":MAILTO:contact@illuminatemind.net GEO:38.795516254602;-0.69206557701591 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Spiritual Retreat and Healing Sanctuary of the Association for Discovering A Course in Miracles km 10 CV-655 Ontinyent Valencia 46870 Spain;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=km 10 CV-655:geo:-0.69206557701591,38.795516254602 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20250909T200000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20250909T210000 DTSTAMP:20260419T093738 CREATED:20250905T232212Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250905T232212Z UID:10000130-1757448000-1757451600@illuminatemind.net SUMMARY:UK A Course in Miracles Festival Online Series DESCRIPTION:An online presentation with Simon Christopher as part of the pre-festival teacher series.

Each one forms a special self-identity as part and parcel of the dream of separation and it becomes the means to retain a distance and a gap\, all differences\, prejudices and arrogance. All but serve to keep us from recognising the innate and fundamental condition of reality in which we are one complete and equal part of an undivided Self. And so we maintain and reinforce our specialness\, our perceived differences that serve to keep us from joining with others. We may recoil in disgust\, arm to kill\, or conversely become hopelessly attracted to the specialness we see in them. \nThe specialness of the special self concept we made\, stands between reality and our awareness of the truth. And nothing could be more unacceptable to it than the perfect sameness of all humanity as one creation in which all are given everything equally by a loving and just Creator. The Holy Spirit sees each one as equally lovable\, equally whole and equally perfect. Equal and the same in holiness with all the attributes God gave to His Creation the same in each and everyone. Nothing could be more of a threat to the special self\, at one with the illusion of a world\, both parts of one illusion that there is a gap between what is a continuous\, contiguous\, indivisible\, whole and eternal. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“The special ones are all asleep\, surrounded by a world of loveliness they do not see. Freedom and peace and joy stand there\, beside the bier on which they sleep\, and call them to come forth and waken from their dream of death. Yet they hear nothing. They are lost in dreams of specialness… and they hate the call that would awaken them. “ ACIM T.24.III.7 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTrue forgiveness transforms the concept of the self that specialness condemns to differences\, comparisons\, competition and separation\, to loneliness\, pain and suffering. Forgiveness removes all beliefs\, definitions\, attributes and identities that would impose inequality between the Sons of God\, which mark them as unequal to all the rest. Miracles humble the arrogant and lift up the poor in spirit with recognition of their worthiness. Miracles make minds instantly one to join in an instant of joyful recognition of our common spiritual reality. Beyond the littleness of the special self cherished by the ego lies the grandeur of God and our eternal unity as One Self He created us to be.Holy Spirit offers a different purpose for the specialness we made of ourselves. In service to a function we did not make\, the holy function of healing and forgiveness\, our identity is released for truth to be revealed in the light of reality. Our joy lies not in differences and all the terrible aspects of war amongst unequals\, but in realising the Self we are lies in everyone and everything. And so what we made for the purpose of separation and death now has become the means for reparation\, for resurrection and awakening to the eternal.  \nPlease use the contact form to get in touch about your interest in participating\, or if you have any questions. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“To value specialness is to esteem an alien will to which illusions of yourself are dearer than the truth.” ACIM T.24.II.2 \n“You would oppose this course because it teaches you you and your brother are alike.“  ACIM T.24.I.8 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nwith Simon Christopher \n\n\n\nThis is an invitation to join us in the illuminate\, spiritual mind-training of A Course in Miracles\, and the passionate certainty of your awakening to the reality of eternal life! \n\n\n\nCome and discover the power and simplicity of the miracle of true forgiveness.

Its laws are not imposed on you\, its values are not yours. And nothing that you think you see in it is really there at all. This is seen and understood as each one takes his part in its undoing\, as he did in making it. He has the means for either\, as he always did. The specialness he chose to hurt himself did God appoint to be the means for his salvation\, from the very instant that the choice was made. His special sin was made his special grace. His special hate became his special love.”  ACIM Text.25.VI.6 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCost URL:https://illuminatemind.net/events/salvation-and-the-death-of-specialness/ LOCATION:Overton House\, Ealing\, W.
