A COURSE IN MIRACLES UNLEASHED at the Sundance Cinemas in Madison, WI - 2 Days Only!
A remarkable new indie 4-part documentary film of the intensely personal and passionate process of spiritual enlightenment.
This must-see film presents the teaching of A Course In Miracles which
challenges the viewer's assumptions about himself at the most
fundamental level, and directs him to his own personal need for the transformation of his mind. It acts as a catalyst for the viewer, in his own self identity of space / time, to undergo the experience of enlightenment necessary to fulfill his inevitable purpose for living, the most ancient quest of discovery - to remember that he is whole and perfect as God created him.

***You
can help get the message out and share the gift of light that you have
been given by hosting your own screening event at a local cinema,
auditorium or meeting space!
You
who have spent your lives in bringing truth to illusion, reality to
fantasy, HAVE walked the way of dreams. For you have gone from waking
to sleeping, and on and on to a yet deeper sleep. Each dream has led to
other dreams, and every fantasy that SEEMED to bring a light into the
darkness but made the darkness deeper. Your GOAL was darkness, in which
no ray of light could enter. And you sought a blackness so complete
that you could hide from truth forever, in complete insanity. What you
forgot was simply that God CANNOT destroy Himself. The light is IN you.
Darkness can COVER it, but CANNOT put it out.
As the light comes nearer, you WILL rush to darkness, shrinking from
the truth, sometimes retreating to the lesser forms of fear, and
sometimes to stark terror. But you WILL advance, because your goal IS
the advance from fear to truth. YOU KNOW THIS. The goal which you
accepted IS the goal of knowledge, for which you signified your
willingness. Fear seems to live in darkness. When you are afraid, YOU
HAVE STEPPED BACK. Let us then join quickly in an instant of light, and
it will be enough to remind you that your goal IS light. Truth has
rushed to meet you, since YOU called upon it.
If you knew Who walks beside you on THIS way, which YOU have chosen,
fear would be impossible. You do NOT know, because the journey into
darkness has been long and cruel, and you have gone deep into it. A
little flicker of your eyelids, closed so long, has not yet been
sufficient to give you confidence in yourselves, so long despised. You
go TOWARD love, still hating it, and TERRIBLY afraid of its judgment
upon you. And you do NOT realize that you are NOT afraid of love, but
only OF WHAT YOU MADE OF IT.
You are advancing to love's MEANING, and away from ALL illusions in
which you have surrounded it. When you retreat to the illusions, YOUR
FEAR INCREASES, for there is little doubt that what YOU think it means
IS fearful. But what is that to us, who travel surely and very swiftly
AWAY from fear? You who hold each other's hand also hold mine, for when you joined each other, you were NOT alone.
Do you believe that I would LEAVE you in the darkness you agreed to
leave WITH me? In your relationship is this world's light. And fear
MUST disappear before you now.
Be tempted not to snatch away the gift of faith you offered to each
other. You will succeed only in frightening yourselves. The gift is
given forever, for God Himself received it. You CANNOT take it back.
YOU HAVE ACCEPTED GOD. The holiness of your relationship is established
in Heaven. You do not realize WHAT you accepted, but remember that your
understanding is NOT necessary. All that WAS necessary was merely the
wish to understand. That wish was the DESIRE TO BE HOLY. The will of
God IS granted you. For you desire the only thing you ever had, or ever
were.
Each instant that we spend together will teach you that this goal is
possible, and will strengthen your DESIRE to reach it. And in your
desire, lies its accomplishment. YOUR desire is now in COMPLETE accord
with all the power of the Holy Spirit's Will. No little faltering
footstep that you may take can separate your desire from His Will, and
from His STRENGTH. I hold your hand as surely as you agreed to take
each other's. YOU WILL NOT SEPARATE, for I stand with you, and walk
with you in your advance to truth. And where we go, we carry God with
us.
In your relationship, you have joined with me in bringing Heaven to the
Son of God, who hid in darkness. You have been willing to bring the
darkness to light, and this willingness has given strength to everyone
who would REMAIN in darkness. Those who would see WILL see. And they
will join with me in carrying THEIR light into the darkness, when the
darkness in them is OFFERED to the light, and is removed forever. My
need for you, joined WITH me in the holy light of your relationship, is
YOUR need for salvation. Would I not give you what you gave to me? For
when you joined each other, you answered ME.
You who are now the bringers of salvation, have the function of
bringing light to darkness. The darkness in you HAS been brought to
light. Carry it back TO darkness, from the holy instant to which you
BROUGHT it. We are made whole in our desire to make whole. Let not time
worry you, for all the fear that you experience is really past. Time
has been re-adjusted to help us do together what your separate pasts
would hinder. You have gone PAST fear, for no two minds can JOIN in the
desire for love without love's joining THEM.
Not one light in Heaven but goes with you. Not one ray that shines
forever in the Mind of God but shines on you. Heaven is JOINED with you
in your advance to Heaven. When such great light has joined with you,
to give the little spark of your desire the power of God Himself, can
YOU remain in darkness? You are coming home together, after a long and
meaningless journey which you undertook apart, and which led nowhere.
You have FOUND each other, and will light each other's way. And from
this light will the great rays extend back into darkness and forward
unto God. To shine away the past, and so make room for His Eternal
Presence, in which everything is radiant in the light.

My brothers in salvation, do not fail to hear my voice and listen to my
words. I ask for nothing but your own release. There is no place for
hell within a world whose loveliness can yet be so intense and so
inclusive it is but a step from there to Heaven. To your tired eyes I
bring a vision of a different world, so new and clean and fresh you
will forget the pain and sorrow that you saw before. Yet this a vision
is which you must share with everyone you see, for otherwise you will
behold it not. To give this gift is how to make it yours. And God
ordained, in loving kindness, that it be for you.
Let us be glad that we can walk the world, and find so many chances to
perceive another situation where God's gift can once again be
recognized as ours! And thus will all the vestiges of hell, the secret
sins and hidden hates be gone. And all the loveliness which they
concealed appear like lawns of Heaven to our sight, to lift us high
above the thorny roads we travelled on before the Christ appeared. Hear
me, my brothers, hear and join with me. God has ordained I cannot call
in vain, and in His certainty I rest content. For you will hear, and you will choose again. And in this choice is everyone made free.
I thank You, Father, for these holy ones who are my brothers as they
are Your Sons. My faith in them is Yours. I am as sure that they will
come to me as You are sure of what they are, and will forever be. They
will accept the gift I offer them, because You gave it me on their
behalf. And as I would but do Your holy Will, so will they choose. And
I give thanks for them. Salvation's song will echo through the world
with every choice they make. For we are one in purpose, and the end of
hell is near.
In joyous welcome is
my hand outstretched to every brother who would join with me in
reaching past temptation, and who looks with fixed determination toward
the light that shines beyond in perfect constancy. Give me my own, for
they belong to You. And can You fail in what is but Your Will? I give
You thanks for what my brothers are. And as each one elects to join
with me, the song of thanks from earth to Heaven grows from tiny
scattered threads of melody to one inclusive chorus from a world
redeemed from hell, and giving thanks to You.
And now we say "Amen." For Christ has come to dwell in the abode You
set for Him before time was, in calm eternity. The journey closes,
ending at the place where it began. No trace of it remains. Not one
illusion is accorded faith, and not one spot of darkness still remains
to hide the face of Christ from anyone. Thy Will is done, complete and
perfectly, and all creation recognizes You, and knows You as the only
Source it has. Clear in Your likeness does the Light shine forth from
everything that lives and moves in You. For we have reached where all
of us are one, and we are home, where You would have us be.
