SUMMARY:Illuminating A Course in Miracles
DESCRIPTION:This is an invitation to join in the spiritual imperative for the undoing of illusions of separation\, sacrifice and fear\, and awakening the joyful self-realization of the forgiving mind with Simon Christopher. All welcome! \n\n\n\nWe are elucidating the singular 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 Please use this Contact form to request the Zoom meeting link to join this evenings online session with Simon. The link will be sent out prior to the scheduled time of the session. \n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:The Call to Freedom
DESCRIPTION:What is freedom except to know your Self\, your will\, and to be the natural\, unrestricted expression of that Self?  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA three-day weekend experience on the essential teachings\, principles and practices of A Course in Miracles with Simon Christopher at the Ammerdown Centre\, Radstock\, near Bath in Somerset.  This is an invitation to join a joyfully focused in-person healing event for discovering the true meaning of freedom\, and to add your voice to its song of rejoicing.   \n\n\n\nFriday to Sunday\, February 20th to 22nd \n\n\n\nEach one yearns to find the freedom they have lost\, seeking in their own way for that hidden treasure. 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.

SUMMARY:The Heart of True Forgiveness – Tucson
DESCRIPTION:This is an invitation to a joyfully focused in-person healing forum for discovering together\, the meaning\, purpose and practice of true forgiveness as the spiritual imperative for undoing illusions of separation\, sacrifice and fear\, and liberating the mind in the joyful self-realization of the awareness of Christ. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Christ has dreamed the dream of a forgiven world. It is His gift\, whereby a sweet transition can be made from death to life; from hopelessness to hope. Let us an instant dream with Him. His dream awakens us to truth. His visiongives the means for a return to our unlost and everlasting sanctity in God.”  \n\n\n\nACIM W.159.10 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is our time of awakening\, for we have in our hands the divinely incomparable gift of A Course in Miracles. Its singular purpose is to lead us back to knowledge of our Self. For to know your Self is the answer to all questions and all uncertainties\, it is the single existential solution to the inherently fearful condition of separation and suffering\, and the return to the light of our eternal reality. \n\n\n\nI’m very happy to be back in Tucson and to be offering this one-day forum for illuminating the teachings of A Course in Miracles\, and to provide a setting that supports and fosters the application\, understanding and experience. \n\n\n\nPlease feel welcome to join me in this directive from out-of-time\, to address the inherent obstacles to the knowledge of Self and to remember in an instance\, the awareness of the Presence of Perfect Love. It is within our ability to apply the lesson of true forgiveness\, in which all obstacles to the great Peace of God are dispelled. We are indeed entitled to the miracle of knowing we are now as we have always been\, – holy\, healed and perfect as God created us to be.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Who can be born again in Christ but those who have forgiven everyone they see or think of or imagine?”  \n\n\n\nACIM W.192.8

SUMMARY:Illuminating A Course in Miracles
DESCRIPTION:This is an invitation to join in the spiritual imperative for the undoing of illusions of separation\, sacrifice and fear\, and awakening to the joyful self-realization of the forgiving mind with Simon Christopher. 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.

SUMMARY:A Festival of Lilies – Spain
DESCRIPTION:A 4-day Easter weekend celebration of forgiveness with Simon Christopher at the Centre for Discovering A Course in Miracles\, Ontinyent (Valencia) Spain. \n\n\n\nA festival of forgiveness\, in celebration of its power to restore the miracle of God’s Love to our awareness.  \n\n\n\nA focused programme of engagement with the Easter message of Christ Jesus in A Course in Miracles\, the lessons of the crucifixion and the call to join the resurrection.  \n\n\n\nThe purpose of Easter is the un-crucifixion of God’s Son and the awakening into the supreme joy of the resurrection in Christ. 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.

SUMMARY:El Festival de las Azucenas
DESCRIPTION:Una celebración del perdón de cuatro días durante el fin de semana de Pascua con Simon Christopher en el Centro de Retiro para el Descubrimiento de Un Curso de Milagros\, Ontinyent\, Valencia. \n\n\n\nUna festival del perdón\, en celebración de su poder para restaurar el milagro del Amor de Dios a nuestra conciencia. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nUn programa centrado en el mensaje pascual de Jesucristo en Un curso de milagros\, las lecciones de la crucifixión y la llamada a unirse a la resurrección. \n\n\n\nEl propósito de la Semana Santa es la des-crucifixión del Hijo de Dios y el despertar a la alegría suprema de la resurrección en Cristo. 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. Mas lo sabrás por razón de tu ofrenda de azucenas. En el perdón que le concedes a ese forastero\, que aunque es un extraño para ti\, es tu Amigo ancestral\, reside su liberación y tu redención junto con él.“ \n\n\n\nUCDM  Texto 20.I.4 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\ncon Simon Christopher¡Esta es una invitación a unirse a nosotros en el iluminado entrenamiento de la mente de Un Curso de Milagros\, y la apasionada certeza de su despertar a la realidad de la vida eterna!Ven y descubre el poder y la simplicidad del milagro del verdaderoperdón.

Amén. \n\n\n\nEl Festival de las Azucenas está organizado por la Illuminate Mind Foundation en colaboración con la Asociación para el descubrimiento de Un Curso de Milagros. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Olvida tus sueños de pecado y de culpabilidad\, y en su lugar ven conmigo a compartir la resurrección del Hijo de Dios. Y trae contigo todos aquellos que Él te ha enviado para que cuides de ellos como yo cuido de ti.“ \n\n\n\nUCDM  Clarificación 5.6

SUMMARY:Illuminating A Course in Miracles
DESCRIPTION:This is an invitation to join in the spiritual imperative for the undoing of illusions of separation\, sacrifice and fear\, and awakening to the joyful self-realization of the forgiving mind with Simon Christopher. 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.

SUMMARY:Awakening to the Light – Retreat
DESCRIPTION:“Light is not of the world\, yet you who bear the light in you are alien here as well. The light came with you from your native home\, and stayed with you because it is your own. It is the only thing you bring with you from Him Who is your Source. It shines in you because it lights your home\, and leads you back to where it came from and you are at home.” \n\n\n\nA Course In Miracles -Workbook 188.1 \n\n\n\n\nA 9-day retreat experience with Simon Christopher at the Centre for Discovering A Course in Miracles\, Ontinyent (Valencia) Spain. \n\n\n\nAwakening to the light of realitiy is the great spiritual undertaking of each individual. Its light has been obscured from awareness and even though it continues without interruption\, the split mind of human consciousness\, which we call ego\, draws a veil\, a deliberate contrived mechanism for the denial of the light. More than that\, it is heavily invested in illusions and the belief in the false conditionality of separation with complete faith in the world it perceives. \n\n\n\nFaith\, belief and desire uphold perception of this alternative “virtual reality” and continually direct the mind towards emptiness and oblivion. – “To be told that what you do not see is there sounds like insanity. It is very difficult to become convinced that it is insanity not to see what is there\, and to see what is not there instead.”  – ACIM W-91.3 – Miracles are seen in light. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“It is impossible to conceive of light and darkness or everything and nothing as joint possibilities. They are all true or all false. It is essential that you realize your thinking will be erratic until a firm commitment to one or the other is made. A firm commitment to darkness or nothingness\, however\, is impossible.” \n\n\n\nA Course In Miracles -Text 3.II.1 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe only requirement is to engage in a conscious decision to identify and remove the blocks to the awareness of our present\, radiant reality in Christ. To that end we will be examining and illuminating the curriculum teachings\, practices and meditations. We will include Chapter 19 and the Obstacles to Peace. Without fear of God\, the light of the eternal\, we would leap into Heaven and leave all appearances behind. Therefore there is great benefit in understanding the fear of redemption so that it is recognised for what it is. The way will open up as the fear dissipates by looking directly at it. From there experience will come to reinforce the choice to join the Holy Spirit in remembrance of the light in which our God-created Self shines and offers only miracles. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“You do not think of light in terms of strength\, and darkness in terms of weakness. That is because your idea of what seeing means is tied up with the body and its eyes and brain…The strength in you will offer you the light\, and guide your seeing so you do not dwell on idle shadows that the body’s eyes provide for self-deception. Strength and light unite in you\, and where they meet\, your Self stands ready to embrace you as Its Own. “ \n\n\n\nA Course In Miracles -Workbook 92.9 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEnquiries and booking requests now open. Please use this Contact form to get in touch. More details to be posted soon. \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\, – the incomparable teachings of A Course in Miracles. \n\n\n\nOpen your mind to the light of the living universe of truth that is calling you back to where you are at Home\, in the joyful self-realization of the perfect Love of God! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“When the light comes and you have said\, “God’s Will is mine\,” you will see such beauty that you will know it is not of you. Out of your joy you will create beauty in His Name\, for your joy could no more be contained than His. The bleak little world will vanish into nothingness\, and your heart will be so filled with joy that it will leap into Heaven\, and into the Presence of God.” \n\n\n\nA Course In Miracles -Text 11.III.3 \n\n\n\n\n\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“The Son of God cannot hide his glory\, for God wills him to be glorious\, and gave him the light that shines in him. You will never lose your way\, for God leads you. When you wander\, you but undertake a journey that is not real. The dark companions\, the dark way\, are all illusions. Turn toward the light\, for the little spark in you is part of a light so great that it can sweep you out of all darkness forever. For your Father is your Creator\, and you are like Him.“ \n\n\n\nA Course In Miracles -Text 11.III.5 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere is great happiness as each one learns the humility to take directives from the Voice for God\, the Teacher who offers only the simple and uncompromising lesson of complete forgiveness. This lesson has the power to open up the hidden altar to the light of perfection and love.  Herein lies our journey of return to the eternal\, given to us in this divinely orchestrated curriculum\, – God’s plan for salvation from darkness to the light which lights our minds and every mind throughout creation. All is given us through the auspices of the resurrected man\, Christ Jesus – who remains with us on the journey\, – one with us in purpose\, peace\, certainty and Truth. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Think what is given those who share their Father’s purpose\, and who know that it is theirs. They want for nothing. Sorrow of any kind is inconceivable. Only the light they love is in awareness\, and only love shines upon them forever. It is their past\, their present and their future; always the same\, eternally complete and wholly shared. They know it is impossible their happiness could ever suffer change of any kind.” \n\n\n\nA Course In Miracles – Text 23.IV.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\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.

SUMMARY:Despertar a la luz – Retiro
DESCRIPTION:“La luz es algo ajeno al mundo\, y tú en quien mora la luz eres asimismo un extraño aquí. La luz vino contigo desde tu hogar natal\, y permaneció contigo\, pues es tuya. Es lo único que trajiste contigo de Aquel que es tu Fuente. Refulge en ti porque ilumina tu hogar\, y te conduce de vuelta al lugar de donde vino y donde finalmente estás en tu hogar.” \n\n\n\nUn Curso de Milagros –Ejercicios 188.1 \n\n\n\n\nUna experiencia de retiro de 9 días con Simon Christopher en el Centro de Retiro para el Descubrimiento de Un Curso de Milagros\, Ontinyent\, Valencia. \n\n\n\nDespertar a la luz de la realidad es la gran tarea espiritual de cada individuo. Su luz ha quedado oculta a la conciencia y\, aunque sigue brillando sin interrupción\, la mente dividida de la conciencia humana —lo que llamamos ego— extiende un velo\, un mecanismo deliberado y artificial para negar esa luz. Es más\, está profundamente inmersa en las ilusiones y en la creencia en la falsa condición de la separación\, con total fe en el mundo que percibe. \n\n\n\nLa fe\, las creencias y los deseos sustentan la percepción de esta «realidad virtual» alternativa y dirigen continuamente la mente hacia el vacío y el olvido. —«Que te digan que lo que no ves está ahí suena a locura. Es muy difícil convencerse de que es una locura no ver lo que está ahí y\, en cambio\, ver lo que no está».  – UCDM Ejercicios-91.3 – Los milagros se ven en la luz. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Es imposible concebir la luz y la obscuridad\, o todo y nada\, como posibilidades compatibles. Estos conceptos son o completamente verdaderos o completamente falsos. Es esencial que te des cuenta de que tu pensamiento seguirá siendo errático hasta que te comprometas firmemente con la luz o con la obscuridad. No obstante\, un compromiso firme con la obscuridad o con la nada\, es imposible.“ \n\n\n\nUn Curso de Milagros -Texto 3.II.1 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEl único requisito es tomar la decisión consciente de identificar y eliminar los obstáculos que nos impiden percibir nuestra realidad presente y radiante en Cristo. Con ese fin\, analizaremos y profundizaremos en las enseñanzas\, las prácticas y las meditaciones del programa. Incluiremos el capítulo 19 y los obstáculos para la paz.Sin temor a Dios\, la luz de lo eterno\, saltaríamos al Cielo y dejaríamos atrás todas las apariencia. Por lo tanto\, es muy beneficioso comprender el temor a la redención\, para reconocerlo por lo que es. El camino se abrirá a medida que el temor se disipe al mirarlo directamente. A partir de ahí\, la experiencia reforzará la decisión de unirnos al Espíritu Santo en el recuerdo de la luz en la que brilla nuestro Ser creado por Dios y que solo ofrece milagros. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“No asocias la luz con la fortaleza ni la obscuridad con la debilidad. Ello se debe a que tu idea de lo que significa ver está vinculada al cuerpo\, a sus ojos y a su cerebro.…La fortaleza que mora en ti te ofrecerá luz y guiará tu visión para que no habites en las vanas sombras que los ojos del cuerpo te proveen a fin de que te engañes a ti mismo. La fortaleza y la luz se unen en ti\, y ahí donde se unen\, tu Ser se alza presto a recibirte como Suyo. “ \n\n\n\nUn Curso de Milagros –Ejercicios  92.1/9 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAhora abierto para consultas y solicitudes de reserva.Para continuar\, utilice este formulario de contacto para comunicarse con nosotros.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEl amor de Dios nos rodea y su gracia es nuestra cuando nos fijamos en la provisión divinamente orquestada para tu iluminación en Cristo: las incomparables enseñanzas de Un Curso de Milagros. \n\n\n\n¡Abre tu mente a la luz del universo vivo de la verdad\, que te llama para que regreses al lugar donde estás en casa\, en la gozosa autorrealización del Amor perfecto de Dios! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Cuando venga la luz y hayas dicho: “La Voluntad de Dios es la mía”\, verás una belleza tal que sabrás que no procede de ti. Como resultado de tu gozo crearás belleza en Su Nombre\, pues tu gozo es tan incontenible como el Suyo. El mundo desolado e insignificante se desvanecerá en la nada\, y tu corazón estará tan rebosante de alegría que de un saltose elevará hasta el Cielo\, ante la Presencia de Dios.“ \n\n\n\nUn Curso de Milagro -Texto 11.III.3 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPara registrar su interés o ponerse en contacto con nosotros\, comuníquese con Rosa al +34 678 281 610 o envíe un correo electrónico a asociacionucdm@gmail.com\, o utilice este formulario de contacto para comunicarse con nosotros por correo electrónico. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“El Hijo de Dios\, no obstante\, no puede ocultar su gloria\, pues Dios dispuso que fuese glorioso y le dio la luz que refulge en él. Nunca perderás el rumbo\, pues Dios te guía. Cuando vagas sin rumbo no hacessino emprender una jornada que no es real. Los compañeros siniestros y el camino tenebroso\, no son más que ilusiones. Vuélvete hacia la luz\, pues la pequeña chispa que se encuentra en ti es parte de una Luz tan espléndida que te puede liberar para siempre de las tinieblas. Pues tu Padre es tu Creador y tú eres como Él.“ \n\n\n\nUn Curso de Milagro -Texto – 11.III.5 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEs una gran alegría que cada uno aprenda la humildad necesaria para seguir las indicaciones de la Voz de Dios\, el Maestro que solo ofrece la lección sencilla e inquebrantable del perdón total. Esta lección tiene el poder de abrir el altar oculto a la luz de la perfección y el amor.Aquí reside nuestro camino de regreso a lo eterno\, que se nos ha concedido en este plan de estudios orquestado divinamente: el plan de Dios para la salvación\, desde la oscuridad hacia la luz que ilumina nuestras mentes y todas las mentes de la creación. Todo nos es concedido bajo los auspicios del hombre resucitado\, Jesucristo\, quien permanece con nosotros en el camino\, unido a nosotros en propósito\, paz\, certeza y Verdad. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Piensa en lo que se les concede a los que comparten el propósito de su Padre sabiendo que es también el suyo: no tienen necesidad de nada\, cualquier clase de pesar es inconcebible; de lo único que son conscientes es de la luz que aman y sólo el amor brilla sobre ellos para siempre. El amor es su pasado\, su presente y su futuro: siempre el mismo\, eternamente pleno y completamente compartido. Saben que es imposible que su felicidad pueda jamás sufrir cambio alguno.” \n\n\n\nUn Curso de Milagro -Texto – 23.IV.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\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.
