Welcome my name is Penelope Chatterton
welcome to Awake in the Dream.
My friends, I have a guest today.
His name is David Hoffmeister.
David and I would like to join in prayer and begin our program.
Holy Spirit, thank you for my beautiful reflection in David, for our coming together and for sharing,
and joining minds, and enjoying wholeness and fullness and joy.
And enjoying, feeling and being so very deeply loved.
We thank You that You bring us together to explore and to share.......
the beauty of our companionship with You.
Thank You so much, God for creating us in Your likeness and image.
Perfect, Eternal, changeless, and giving us this Life that will never end.
Amen. Amen.
David, the Holy Spirit, I don't think there are words for how I feel.
And how the Holy Spirit works in my life.
He's here now, She's here now, Love is here now.
And to be given all that we need in this moment without looking to the past or the future is what we're here to do.
Yes. And, you just have shown up to do this with me.
And at this point in wherever the evolution is, to coming together for awake in the dream.
We are going to sit here and be awake. So welcome awake friend.
Yes, yes. Thank you so much. And your coming to join me.
Yes, yes. This feels like this is for the whole universe.
You know that everything that we explore together is really for the whole universe.
You know, where two or more are gathered, I am there.
And, I think we want to go into this with such great depth and certainty
that we can let go of the two or more and just feel the presence of the I Am.
Yeah. And just be. just be.
And we've always talked about simplicity, and having simplicity be manifest.
And just be the experience that we are living all the time.
Just living in the Eternal Present.
So, I would love to just have us really go and explain and explore.....
and allow the Spirit to just show how simple the living moment is.
And easy. Yes. I was thinking about easy.
It's easy to be Home. It's easy to be loved, it's easy to be in Eternity. Yes.
It's simple. real, It's simple, it's real. It's current.
It's current. You know, I am as God created me.
The Light has come.
The idea that this is it. This is really imbracing it.
And it's really seeing this is not an affirmation to be repeated over and over and over, but just a living idea.
You know, just one idea. I am as God created me.
It is the idea that ends all concepts.
You know, what is there a need for a concept?
What is there a need for a process? If I am as God created me.
I am created. Yes. I am created?
I am created. I am Sourced by a loving God. And that, I have not left the Mind of my Creator.
And, there can be nothing greater than that, there's no anxiety,
there's no ummm really multiplicity, or duality in that statement:
I am as God created me is a REAL idea.
Yeah, which we can ignite. Yes. Which needs igniting. Yes.
So, that the feeling. the joining is... is experienced.
When there are substitutes that we think may be joining, that we will go to.
But, if you can feel empty after you think you've joined your bodies
You had mentioned prior to the show and it doesn't hold up.
It's still not complete. Yeah
Yeah, igniting, I would say that where we could use this acceptance,
the Light is here and now and is always and is just acceptance of that Light.
And so, all it really is is we're seeing that all of our former definitions,
what the ego was, what the darkness was, have been released to the point of I accept myself as God created me.
So, we take a simple idea, like you mentioned joining.
And then all the assumptions underneath there, joining, networking,
joining together involve time and space and bodies and
things like frequency of contact and some people talk about joining on a Sunday morning
or joining on a Wednesday evening service or sometimes joining once a day with people and so on and so forth.
But, it's.. they're still time/space components.
And, joining in that sense, seems to be like a verb. Yeah, It does.
If it is seen as a verb, then we're back to the kind of a guilt, the ontological guilt of
you know, could I be joining more? you know,
And that again is just an erroneous assumption, because Mind is singular.
And, when we're describing joining as a verb, it's kind of like, the implication is that there are
private minds with private thoughts with private little bodies each going their own separate way.
And, maybe we can gather together, clump 'em together
And, you know almost like the old coke commercial;
like to teach the world to sing, with all the bodies kinda swaying.
We have warm fuzzies inside even when we begin to open our mind to those ideas because those are symbols of what already is.
And what we're experiencing, what is the fact of it is is that mind is singular.
Mind is joined. And all I have to do is let go or release those other overlays and concepts that have been laid on top.
And you'll clunk right into it. Right. It's just like dropping into the well.
Right, so joining is no longer a verb. Joining is a.. what is. God is, is a description of joining.
