7th. Session - Movie Workshop - Sunday Evening - Barcelona Retreat with David Hoffmeister

This movie workshop emphasizes the devotion to prayer and its transformative power. It illustrates how prayer opens opportunities to teach and learn, showing that when we pray to God, we often find what we seek within ourselves by giving it away to others.

6th. Session - Morning Sunday Service - Barcelona Retreat with David Hoffmeister

From the Chapel service:
The purpose of this chapel is to remind us that the chapel, the monastery, the church, and religion all mean the same thing. It means experience. It is the state of our heart and the state of our mind. It is not a structure, it is not an institution, it is not a theology, it has no history and no future. This instant is the only time there is. We pray together for God to use our perception so that perception may disappear. We hand over all our past learning to let it disappear. We hand over all of our future goals and future ambitions to let them disappear.

Let my voice be mute before your silence. Let my ears be quiet so that I may listen within and hear your gentle voice, gentle reminders, and gentle instructions. You are always blessing me, always kind, and always certain that there is no love but God's. We have come to this retreat to move beyond theory, beyond learning, to practice and experience. We want a direct experience of your love. We dedicate this time together to opening our hearts and minds to experience you in all your glory and all our glory.

5th. Session - Movie Workshop - Saturday Evening at the Barcelona Retreat with David Hoffmeister

This movie workshop reminds us that our desire to open to the light and remember God is activated by our hearts' prayer. A Course in Miracles teaches that truth will be returned to us by our desire, just as it was lost by our desire for something else. The Holy Spirit, described in the Bible as the Comforter, is our bridge back to love and oneness.

The movie symbolizes the journey from darkness to light, where the ego throws up distractions to divert us from following our intuition. However, through prayer and desire, we can overcome these distractions and achieve the light. The ego's advice to figure things out is unnecessary, as everything is internal. With a strong prayer in our hearts, we can overcome external obstacles and experience the light of God.

4th. Session - Saturday Morning - Q&A - Barcelona Retreat with David Hoffmeister

Embracing Divine Abundance: The True Meaning of Sacrifice

David delves into the idea that God asks for no sacrifice but offers everything. This perspective challenges the traditional view that the spiritual journey involves sacrifice, highlighting instead that true sacrifice means giving up what you don’t truly desire. Jesus teaches that our greatest joy comes from following our intuition, leading us to experience our true identity as Christ.

He explains that the real world is vastly different from the one we perceive. There are no artificial lights, streets, or stores to buy things we neither need nor want. This description portrays the human condition as an absurd parody, where people seek something unknown. Jesus emphasizes that in heaven when you knock, the door will be opened. He advises against seeking outside oneself, which leads to disappointment when idols fall. Instead, he points to an inner identity obscured by false beliefs and desires, which are always available for discovery. This inner journey is about uncovering that true identity.

3rd. Session - Friday Evening -  Movie Workshop - Barcelona Retreat with David Hoffmeister

In this movie workshop on forgiveness, Jesus aims to help us understand that time is a reflection of our consciousness, not a linear sequence. The linear perspective often used to perceive grievances spreads them out over time. These grievances represent the ego, and the sleeping mind is addicted to linear time. Newtonian physics, studied by Sir Isaac Newton through the scientific method, deals with linear time. However, quantum physicists like Einstein realized that time is not linear but relative.

Jesus teaches that everything we perceive through our five senses is the past; all perceived experiences are part of a dream. The field of forgiveness, as described by quantum physicists, is a realm where everything exists simultaneously. Time is an illusion, breaking reality into parts like time and space. This egoic concept has turned this field into a line, making us believe it is real. Karma, the belief that past pain and suffering can be repeated, is another aspect of this illusion. However, quantum physics teaches us that time is simultaneous, and it should be as easy to return to the past as moving into the future. This concept is mind-blowing for the human being.

2nd. Session - Friday Morning - Barcelona 5-day Retreat - From Theory to Practice with David Hoffmeister

The projected world of space and time is an ego trick, diverting our attention to external discomfort instead of recognizing it within the mind. This belief in separation and a fall from grace is a mental construct that needs to be exposed and released. The ego is intricate, with layers of illusions and varying levels. Our heartfelt prayer is, “Give me the simple life,” yet we often don’t even know what that simplicity truly is.

Jesus and Buddha teach the middle way: “The kingdom of heaven is within.” They guide us not to change the projected world but to understand that it is an illusion. Jesus teaches that the world is a trick and that nothing we see has inherent meaning. 

Our central problem is believing that nothing is something, and once we interpret it as something, we mistakenly call it real. Jesus instructs us to forget the world and come to God with empty hands, emphasizing the importance of contemplating our true nature and the nature of God. This teaching highlights the necessity of recognizing the unreality of our thoughts and experiences.

1st. Session - Opening of the Barcelona 5-day Retreat - From Theory to Practice with David Hoffmeister

In the opening session of the Barcelona 5-day retreat, David discusses intuitive guidance, which helps individuals let go of their personality self. This guidance can be experienced through interactions with people, signs, symbols in the environment, and dreams.

David emphasizes the importance of releasing attempts to interpret the past and living carefree, like a child at play. He believes the world is an impossible situation, and something inside us jumps for joy when we are clueless about it and forget it. This state of joy can lead to laughter and synchronization, which are signs of awakening. He highlights the importance of embracing intuition and practicing prayer to achieve humility and stillness. By focusing on what truly matters and letting go of interpretation, individuals can experience greater happiness and joy.

6th. Session - Closing with David Hoffmeister at Awaken to Love Center, Torrox, Spain

In this closing session at the Awaken to Love Weekend retreat, David discusses the phenomenon of guilt using three Star Trek episodes and answers questions from the participants. 

The ego's chief weapon is sleep through the private mind, thoughts, and dreams, creating a mental attack. This illusion of a private mind, associated with the body, leads to secrets and 6.8 billion private dreams on Earth. This creates a trap that doesn't seem to have an external enemy but is the very perspective through which we perceive ourselves. The very private perspective is the trap.
