Enjoy this MP3 CD with Enlightened ACIM Teacher David Hoffmeister. Recorded at a gathering in the Davenport/Bettendorf, Iowa area in the early 1990s.
Attack is seen as impossible when the ego is seen as an impossible idea.
Topics include:
The metaphysics of ego blaming
Tracing the upset back into the mind
Bringing the ego to the Truth of Blamelessness where the ego dissolves.
Exposing the underlying fear beneath the blame.
False self-concept responsibilities seem to need defense while they are
believed in.
World of projection was made to alleviate the intolerable split mind.
Unawareness of Truth does not change Truth. God simply Is.
The 'Big Bang' of fragmentation
All images of the cosmos are the graven images spoken of in the Bible.
Belief in separation from God was the first seeming "attack"
The 'original belief in separation' was horrific, so a cosmos of 'cover attack thoughts' was made to 'hide and protect' the sleeping mind.
Must unveil the whole ego thought system -there is no partial healing
Impossibility of the original error is the impossibility of attack
The experience of the unconditional Love of Christ
The impossibility of sacrifice
Releasing false past memories and opening to a new Interpretation with the Holy Spirit.
Based on the living teachings of A Course In Miracles (ACIM).

David Hoffmeister has touched the lives of thousands with his consistently peaceful state of mind, radiant joy, and dedication to Truth. He is a modern day mystic who travels the world, sharing the message of Love, Oneness, and True Freedom across four continents. His journey involved the study of many pathways, and finally he was led to a deeply committed practical application of A Course In Miracles. For those who hope that enlightenment in this lifetime is possible, David is pure inspiration. Joined with the Messengers of Peace, David continues to support Awakening through inspirational gatherings in many countries, in-depth teaching materials, and an expansive Internet ministry. Together they live a devotional life, relying completely on Divine Providence.
David began his journey to spiritual enlightenment in 1986 when he encountered A Course in Miracles and recognized it as the tool he had been seeking for a radical transformation of his mind and perceptions. In the early years David studied the Course with passionate intensity, often reading it for eight or more hours a day. After two years of this study, David began to seek the company of other students of ACIM, attending as many as five groups a week. He was startled to find that a Voice was speaking through him with great authority, so that many began referring their questions to him.
Among family members, friends and teachers, David was always known for questioning everything, rather than accepting conventional answers. Thus he was delighted to find in the Course support and encouragement from the Voice of Jesus for his careful examination of every idea, belief, concept and assumption in his mind. Jesus became David's internal teacher, answering his every question, guiding him to hand over the day-to-day management of all relationships, circumstances and events in his life, and providing inner discernment.
In 1991 David was impelled to make another leap of trust and to begin traveling around the United States and Canada, sharing his clarity of understanding related to A Course in Miracles. He followed Jesus' instructions to "become as a child", allowing himself to be totally dependent on the Holy Spirit for money, transportation, shelter, food and the words to speak in countless ACIM gatherings, churches, metaphysical and spiritual groups and a host of holy encounters with persons who knew nothing of the Course. David found that it was his constant joy and peace that was the best teacher in all encounters, and that it was this peace that all his brothers and sisters were seeking. The Voice of Jesus told David – as it instructed the apostles 2,000 years before, "Freely you have received; freely give." Thus David has never charged for his time, teaching or any of the many materials he gives away, but has been supported entirely by love offerings. In all his years of traveling and sharing the wisdom of Christ, David has become a living demonstration of the principles of A Course in Miracles, such lessons as:
"I am sustained by the Love of God." "I am the light of the world." "I will step back and let him lead the way." "In my defenselessness my safety lies." "God's will for me is perfect happiness."
David learned through countless miracles that he could perfectly trust the Holy Spirit to provide for him and guide him through every situation. Everything he seemed to need to accomplish his purpose as a teacher of God was given without his making any effort whatever. Several hermitage experiences helped David to free his mind from ego chatter and enter into deep Silence, where he ultimately experienced Enlightenment.
