Movie Night: Adam’s Apples
We watched the Danish masterpiece, Adams Apples (2005) Two thought systems, one triumphs. “The crucifixion was the result of clearly opposed thought systems; the perfect symbol of the ‘conflict’ between the ego and the Son of God. This conflict seems just as real now, and its lessons must be learned now as well as then. There are only two thought systems, and you demonstrate that you believe one or the other is true all the time. You can never choose except between God and the ego. Thought systems are but true or false… Only...

It is my greatest gift and joy to be sharing the inspiration to revise ACIM for clarity, readability and understanding. It began with facilitating a study group in my apartment in Austin, Texas, and has grown over the years into a most wonderful influence in my life. This community has provided the space to join with others for help, making the audio/text freely available on the Internet using Spreaker, Facebook, and now this blog on the community web site. It is truly an honor and blessing to be extending the words of Jesus. Love and...

Frances: When you assert your own will, you are in competition with what is. You feel that what is asked of you is a sacrifice. The ego wants to stay alive; it fights for its existence.

I arrived at La Casa a month ago with my new partner Emily. I knew it wasn’t going to be easy because Sue, my ex-wife, is the steward here. At first we all tried to be oh so cool and get along as though we’re ok with the situation…

Members of La Casa de Milagros were invited by Cathy Urroz to hold a “Living the Spirit Inspired Life” gathering in Guadalajara. (Ir a español) In all about twenty people joined to share. Sue opened with this invitation: Spiritual community is a state of mind, a state of being linked with Spirit in peace, love and joy. Today we can look at thoughts that keep us from being continually in this state. We use expression sessions to look within, identify the uncomfortable thoughts and bring them to the light. We invite you to bring...

I have always asked God to feel His love totally, to live it, to be totally in the experience of love. And suddenly, I am here, at La Casa de Milagros!
read moreInspiration, by Catarina
I felt guided to collaborate with Sue around making a photo montage about “The Inspired Heart.“ (Ir a español) It’s about perceiving each moment as a Pure Inspiration. No need to create a specific time to express our inspiration. Just having a state of mind that perceives ALL and EVERYONE as just The Full Expression of Love. In a spontaneous way Sue picked up the camera and shot some pictures. Every smile, every joining, all the different kinds of expression that you can see in the pictures, come from the Heart. It’s impossible to perceive...

Living in community is most definitely the fast track to undoing the ego. (Ir a español) I have been here in Chapala for three weeks now and the shifts have been profound. There is nowhere for the ego to hide here, as when something is held back we all feel it, the discomfort of which is too unbearable. The only relief comes from exposing the thoughts and feelings that are present. Frances has been reminding us that our thoughts are not personal, that they are just ‘the’ thoughts and not specific to any of us. This has really started to...
