Movie Watcher's Guide to Enlightenment by David Hoffmeister Pdf

Movies are like modern-day parables that everyone can relate to. The Movie Watcher's Guide to Enlightenment is a Resource that gives a whole new purpose to movie-watching. We use the categories Metaphysical, Classic, and Mind Watcher to designate different phases of the awakening to Who we are. The Movie Watcher's Guide gives you a description of these themes, along with insights to over 200 different movies. Why is it, for example, that we love to see drama, intrigue, love affairs, and adventures on the silver screen? It is because we all relate to the roles, behavior, and actions of those portrayed. Maybe you dislike certain movies, or refuse to see drama or violence. The Purpose of watching movies with the Spirit is to expand our perception and to flush hidden thoughts, beliefs, and emotions into awareness for release. What better backdrop could there be for healing than your own couch! Invite a friend, make some popcorn, and enjoy Waking Up with the Movies.

The Movie Watcher's Guide to Enlightenment by David Hoffmeister Pdf

Accelerate your Awakening – with the movies! In a radical departure from traditional spiritual cinema David Hoffmeister embraces Hollywood movies as modern day parables for awakening, thus turning the universal pastime of movie watching into a portal for a whole new perspective on Life. Step back, relax and laugh as you learn to see the Big Picture. Allow David and this book to be your gentle guide to a present experience of Enlightenment. “The temptation of linear time is the belief that things would be better if they were different. The problem with attempting to redo the past is that such attempts obscure the realization that the past is over and gone. Healing is seeing that all the scripts of the world are the same and therefore cannot be changed; this awareness is the forgiven world.” Excerpt from The Butterfly Effect review, pg. 28 "Since the dawn of time, myths, stories and parables have been used by spiritual teachers to reveal spiritual truths. Many popular movies speak not only to our desire for entertainment, but are also great tools to flush up and look at human emotions for healing. In The Movie Watcher's Guide to Enlightenment, David Hoffmeister uses movies as contemporary parables, making modern spirituality personal and relevant." -Darren Main - Yoga and the Path of the Urban Mystic

The Lazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment by Thaddeus Golas Pdf

Thaddeus Golas is a lazy man. Laziness keeps him from believing that enlightenment demands effort, discipline, strict diet, non-smoking and other evidences of virtue. He found a way to enlighten himself - and you - with two sentences. The first is We are equal beings and the universe is our relations with each other. The second? The universe is made of one kind of entity; each one is alive, each determines the course of his own existence. If you remember this, that's all you really need to know to understand this book. Originally published in 1972, and in print for 15 years, THE LAZY MAN'S GUIDE TO ENLIGHTNMENT teaches you, amongst other things, how to feel good.

Quantum Forgiveness by David Hoffmeister Pdf

David Hoffmeister uses seven mind-expanding movies as modern-day parables to guide you into an experience of Quantum Forgiveness. Take forgiveness as taught by Jesus 2,000 years ago, the science of the material universe as understood by Quantum Physics, and movie-watching as a spiritual tool. Combine that with the clarity of mystic David Hoffmeister, a world-renowned teacher of A Course in Miracles, and you have an insightful and original book for Awakening to permanent Peace. David’s practical application of these non-dual teachings necessary to experience the Unified Mind and his clarity about the function of True Forgiveness in spiritual awakening, allow us to accept Rumi’s invitation into a field of pure potential! “Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I’ll meet you there.” ~ The Essential Rumi "David Hoffmeister is a beautiful teacher of A Course in Miracles. In his new book, Quantum Forgiveness: Physics, Meet Jesus, he offers a unique and powerful pathway for transcending fear and strengthening your miracle mindset. I recommend this book to anyone on a committed spiritual path. I absolutely adore David and all of his work!" ~ Gabrielle Bernstein, New York Times best-selling author of Miracles Now

The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle Pdf

It's no wonder that The Power of Now has sold over 16 million copies worldwide and has been translated into over 30 foreign languages. Much more than simple principles and platitudes, the book takes readers on an inspiring spiritual journey to find their true and deepest self and reach the ultimate in personal growth and spirituality: the discovery of truth and light. In the first chapter, Tolle introduces readers to enlightenment and its natural enemy, the mind. He awakens readers to their role as a creator of pain and shows them how to have a pain-free identity by living fully in the present. The journey is thrilling, and along the way, the author shows how to connect to the indestructible essence of our Being, "the eternal, ever-present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death." Featuring a new preface by the author, this paperback shows that only after regaining awareness of Being, liberated from Mind and intensely in the Now, is there Enlightenment.

Blindfold by Theo Padnos Pdf

An award-winning journalist’s extraordinary account of being kidnapped and tortured in Syria by al Qaeda for two years—a revelatory memoir about war, human nature, and endurance that’s “the best of the genre, profound, poetic, and sorrowful” (The Atlantic). In 2012, American journalist Theo Padnos, fluent in Arabic, Russian, German, and French, traveled to a Turkish border town to write and report on the Syrian civil war. One afternoon in October, while walking through an olive grove, he met three young Syrians—who turned out to be al Qaeda operatives—and they captured him and kept him prisoner for nearly two years. On his first day, in the first of many prisons, Padnos was given a blindfold—a grime-stained scrap of fabric—that was his only possession throughout his horrific ordeal. Now, Padnos recounts his time in captivity in Syria, where he was frequently tortured at the hands of the al Qaeda affiliate, Jebhat al Nusra. We learn not only about Padnos’s harrowing experience, but we also get a firsthand account of life in a Syrian village, the nature of Islamic prisons, how captors interrogate someone suspected of being CIA, the ways that Islamic fighters shift identities and drift back and forth through the veil of Western civilization, and much more. No other journalist has lived among terrorists for as long as Theo has—and survived. As a resident of thirteen separate prisons in every part of rebel-occupied Syria, Theo witnessed a society adrift amid a steady stream of bombings, executions, torture, prayer, fasting, and exhibitions, all staged by the terrorists. Living within this tide of violence changed not only his personal identity but also profoundly altered his understanding of how to live. Offering fascinating, unprecedented insight into the state of Syria today, Blindfold is “a triumph of the human spirit” (The New York Times Book Review)—combining the emotional power of a captive’s memoir with a journalist’s account of a culture and a nation in conflict that is as urgent and important as ever.

The Enlightenment of Work by Steve Nobel Pdf

Work affects most of us at some point in our lives. Work can be a source of growth, connection, and purpose, but too often it is a source of feeling aimless, bullied or manipulated. Sometimes it comes through overarching ambition, striving to climb up the corporate ladder only to find it is leaning in the wrong direction. There are degrees of emotional and physical suffering when we feel anger, misery and unhappiness with unenlightened work. The Enlightenment of Work is about ending that suffering. This book is essential for anyone wishing to: Transform your suffering at work: Suffering can come in many ways. It can come through feeling aimless and bored where the only reason for being there is to collect a salary each month. It can come through stress, overwork and burnout. This book offers a simple philosophy: suffering happens - but we can transform that suffering. Realise their innate gifts, talents and purpose: Most work disconnects us from knowing our authentic self - our essence or soul. Trust your courage, ideas, intuition, and discover your true self. Reclaim their time: Time is your most precious resource and one you cannot afford to waste. However, many of us work in busy environments that leave little time for real thinking or reflection, or for doing anything very new or interesting. Busy and idle minds can get locked into different forms of anxiety about the past and the future. The changing world of work demands emotional and spiritual intelligence. No one has to stay with work that oppresses the spirit. This new world is about choice.

I Married a Mystic by Kirsten Buxton Pdf

I Married a Mystic—one woman’s leap of faith to discover a love that never ends. It was a surprise to gutsy, Kirsten Buxton when Jesus appeared to her, announcing he would be her guide. At twenty-seven years of age, a serious bike accident had left her physically, psychologically, and emotionally devastated, with no control over her life. Having had no previous relationship with Jesus, she began studying A Course in Miracles, and developing trust in the Spirit within. Miraculously, world-renowned teacher of A Course in Miracles, David Hoffmeister, visited her hometown. Jesus told Kirsten to trust this man completely in order to experience a relationship like no other. Her courageous acceptance of this guidance opened her heart and mind in ways she never could have imagined. Throughout this diary of radical self-inquiry, Kirsten candidly exposes her fears, projections, and private thoughts whilst on an epic adventure of holy relationship with a tirelessly happy mystic! A must read for those seeking to intimately apply non-dual spiritual teachings in every aspect of daily experience: in the bedroom, the bathroom, and even the supermarket. This profound and often humorous account is literally a ‘how-to’ guide for awakening.

Seeing Like the Buddha by Francisca Cho Pdf

Considers film as a form of Buddhist ritual and contemplative practice. In this important new contribution to Buddhist studies and Buddhist film criticism, Francisca Cho argues that films can do more than simply convey information about Buddhism. Films themselves can become a form of Buddhist ritual and contemplative practice that enables the viewer not only to see the Buddha, but to see like the Buddha. Drawing upon her extensive knowledge of both Buddhism and film studies, Cho examines the aesthetic vision of several Asian and Western films that explicitly or implicitly embody Buddhist teachings about karma, emptiness, illusion, and overcoming duality. Her wide-ranging analysis includes Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring (South Korea, 2003), Nang Nak (Thailand, 1999), Rashomon (Japan, 1950), Maborosi (Japan, 1995), and the films of American Terrence Malick.
