Jon Mundy's Magazine, The Matrix, et all....

Seems like Jon Mundy is doing well physically.? I remember at the 20th Anniversary of the Course gathering a couple of years ago he had physical challenge he was facing.? But inspite of how he was feeling he gave a funny presentation as one of the lecturers.? I don't think I ever laughed as hard as I did that day or since.? ::::smiling::::

My thought on the matrix:

The real deep idea is that "you" are the architect ... you created this dream ... you created all the characters in your dream .. and you keep reliving them over and over and over again.? Keep coming back, forgetting that you have been here before (Neo plays that part very well) just to start all over, wondering how you know the things you know and constantly questioning everything you do.

The theme of the matrix is that none of this is real.

None of it.

But we sure do love to dream

don't we?? :-)

and we enjoy a nightmare every now and then (Hitler, slavery,?? 911/Saddam/Bush)?? LOL

When I go and see the Matrix

I am Neo

I am Zion

I am Mr. Smith

I am every single character in that film because for me to see/perceive it, it all comes from my mind.

All part of dream

That we refuse to wake up from

hi,

this is in accordance with the following passage:?

T-5.III.3:? "There are two diametrically opposed ways of seeing your
brother.? They must both be in your mind, because you are the
perceiver.? They must also be in his, because you are perceiving
him.? See him through the Holy Spirit in his mind, and you will
recognize Him in yours.? What you recognize in your brother you
are acknowledging in yourself, and what you share you strengthen."

peace

Amen, Amen and Amen? :-)

But at the same I am still detached ...? I have moments when this is very clear, but as Gary shared in his book

"Now wait a minute, if the contents of my mind, including my own hatred and guilt, are symbolically all around me, then how can I really look within when I'am all wired up in a body and a brain that can only perceive outward?"

I feel like I am in a maze and it has a bunch of false doors .. and I reaching for the door thinking that this is it.. ... then I have moments of clarity and realize that none of the doors will work .. all illusions .. it is not out there, but in my mind.

But it lasts only a moment, and that happens when on the level of the "Mind" I "choose to remember to ask for help"

But I can honestly say the difference now, is that? over time, and I have been involved with the Course since 1988 that I just don't beat myself up like I used to.? The? guilt/fear statements "oh I forgot again", you idiot, you so hard-headed, stubborn (just to name a few), when are you going to get it!"? etc., etc., etc.? LOL

I still say those things, but now I smile and sometimes I break out in laughter, when I see myself once again falling for the ego trap.

This is certainly a process.


What I truly appreciate about Gary sharing his experience is that I can read this, Gary is an ordinary joe blow and I can identify with him on so many levels (I just love the part where was Gary was saying he was about to watch a certain video and Arten and Pursah appeared ... I screamed? I LOVED IT,? yes , this? was speaking on my level of comprehension? for the Course is still very difficult for me to read ... unless I am in a study group; and as much as I love my Ken Wapnick, he is just over my head some times? :-).? But at the same time I know that there is apart of my mind that understands everything that Jesus is saying..

Talk about a split mind LOL

Peace
 

Hi Sheila! (and everybody) Namaste. I went to a Workshop here in
Maine a couple of weeks ago that Jon Mundy was giving at the Unity
church and everybody was saying Namaste. I thought that was pretty
cool. Jon introduced me to the crowd and he sold all 20 of
the "Disappearance" books he had with him. I signed most of them and
it was a lot of fun. He also gave a kick ass Workshop. Jon's been
studying and teaching the Course since 1975, and he's been a minister
since 1961! (He was 18 then, and he just turned 60.) He may have me
do a Workshop with him in New York City in the fall. That would be a
fun trip, being the birthplace of the Course and all. I've only been
to NYC like 3 times. Anyhow, Jon has a great bi-monthly newsletter
called "Miracles Magazine" and he writes about "Disappearance" in the
newest issue (May-June issue) along with other subjects. Many writers
contribute and there's a lot of info about the Course, including
contacts throughout the country. It's free for the asking, although
it's appropriate to make a donation when you feel so guided. Just
send your name, address, e-mail and birthday (it's part of their
system) to IPR c/o Rev. Jon Mundy, 39 Hickory Drive, Campbell Hall,
NY 10916. Just ask him add you to the Miracles Magazine list and to
be sure to send you the May-June issue that talks about "The
Disappearance of the Universe."
Sheila, I really appreciate you telling people about the book.
And as you may remember from the book, movies are my hobby. I haven't
seen Matrix Re-loaded yet but I will soon. I loved the first one. I
think The Matrix is to this generation what the first 3 Star Wars
movies were to the last. What's really exciting about that for me is
that they present the idea of the world not being real in a
fascinating way. That kind of thinking really helps prepare people to
accept the kinds of ideas that are taught in the Course. I'm looking
forward to seeing "Re-loaded" real soon! BTW, as far being a Bible is
concerned, I don't even want the Bible to be a Bible! But I'm sure
you already know that. Love and peace, Gary.
 

Hey BBFBBN! That was an excellent commentary on "The Matrix." It
makes me want to see it even more. I just thought I'd pass along to
you that Jon Mundy told me he is now cancer free, which is wonderful.
Love and peace, Gary.
