The Life of Mysticism
My heart is beating in the joy of God.
My mind is resting in the peace of God.
My soul is invulnerable in the strength of God.
Mine eye is single in the light of God.
~ David Hoffmeister
The life of Mysticism is as spontaneous and playful as it is serene and tranquil. Alive and energized by the living moment, the need for rituals and rules and structures falls away from the mind. Miracles lead the way, for the way of the true mystic is approach to God through attraction, not through avoidance or opposition. Love is without opposite, and this spiritual fact is finally approached and accepted without exception or compromise.
Join David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles community for an online retreat weekend on the topic of mysticism. Let this beautiful "Tabula Rasa" pamphlet from The Foundation of the Awakening Mind inspire you even deeper.
This retreat is part of our monthly Awakening from the Dream online retreats. All of our sessions are based on the non-dual teachings of A Course in Miracles. You will meet mighty companions from around the world and have an opportunity to ask the deepest questions on your heart.
What is it like to attend an online retreat?
These retreats are a very deep and intimate experience for everyone involved. You will experience the same connection and engagement as you would on a “physical” retreat, except now from the comfort of your own home. These weekends offer dynamic teaching sessions, movies, live music performances, Q and A, and more. It truly feels like we’re right there in your living room with you.
Our "Awakening from the Dream" online retreats are held on the first full weekend of every month. All our online retreats are focused on the non–dual teachings of A Course in Miracles and its practical application to our everyday lives.
Testimonials
Blessings to you all!
Thank you to everyone involved and indeed everyone in the “world” for the opportunity to share the connectedness of A Course in Miracles! The retreat was a real joy for me, I particularly loved the movie "Fatima", what a miraculous story unfolding on the screen before my eyes and heart. David’s commentary was beautiful, heart-opening, delightful, inspiring and his enthusiasm, humor and complete attention are as always wonderfully contagious! And deep gratitude also to Frances for her open-hearted clarity and joyful innocence in the introduction, I was deeply moved by her words. I feel so lucky to be able to connect with these mighty companions! Thank you thank you!

I am so happy that I was guided to participate in this retreat. The gifts that I received from my participation and all of your teaching contributions were beyond my expectations.
~ Lisa from Wisconson
The movie watching was remarkable and that was for me where most came up from deep within to the Heart. With all the Love we know so far, we Thank You all at Living Miracles for bringing Jesus to Life through practical application of the principles of A Course in Miracles and making it all more approachable!

Watching movies in purpose is a way of remembering our true Self.
— David Hoffmeister
Discover a new way of watching movies and experience the path of Awakening like never before!
Watching movies is a way of stepping back and remembering that what we see on the screen is not real. In fact, life itself is a big projection. What we see is not real but rather the out-picturing of our mind. There is a method to watch movies in an enlightened way that leads to observing the events and scenes and scripts of the world—with forgiving eyes. These spiritual movies can be used as a way of expanding consciousness and ultimately experiencing the depth and meaning of the Inner Self.
"Movies are an excellent way to watch your mind, to pay attention to your emotions, and to help you discover what your unconscious beliefs are. When you react emotionally to a movie, it's the same as reacting to people in your life. It's the same dynamics: if you have issues with people, it's a projection of your mind. If you have reactions to a movie, it's coming from a projection of your mind. Watching movies in this way accelerates healing." — David Hoffmeister
All our movie workshops are focused on the non–dual teachings of A Course in Miracles and its practical application in our everyday lives.

2. What movie will be shown?
We actually don't know yet. 😄 Before each movie workshop, David Hoffmeister and our community spend time in prayer about what movie to show that will be perfect for everyone's healing, and so we typically don't know the movie with much advance notice. Therefore, we encourage you to trust that if you feel an inspiration to attend, that David will show the perfect movie for your healing!
3. Are there group rates available?
Yes! So long as all group members are attending the workshop from the same location/computer, we would be happy to give a 50% discount to each additional participant after yourself.

4. How do I end my membership?
If you would like to end your membership, you can cancel your monthly payment in the "Settings" section of your PayPal account. Your subscription will then automatically expire. However, please do not cancel until after the last movie workshop you've paid for. Otherwise, it will also cancel the automatic emails we'd have sent you with the Zoom link for those movies!
(Note: if you accidentally cancel your subscription before your last paid movie workshop, just be sure to let us know by emailing us at [email protected] so we can be sure to send you the Zoom links manually.)
