It sounds like the Bubble of calibrations you speak of is an escape room. My daughter has done a few escape room experiences. I also want to mention that people who made the self employment choice know, embrace and use their empowerment and responsibility everyday in their business. They never feel like a victim. Every challenge that comes their way they want to solve. I think that's why Small businesses and the middle class citizenry it creates are always under attack by the oligarchical class. They Fear the fearless most!

There is something to be said for interacting with sacred literature or text. Like the bible or CIM. What makes these different from, say a novel or the phonebook, is that they are organized by a larger intelligence. When you contemplate a question for the text, it frequently responds with an answer. This can be as an insight, a dream, or synchronicity.
Happens all the time with me. The only requirement is that you approached the text with some reverence. But sometimes not even that is required. It is one way that a new story line enters your life.
Having listened to your weaving of these three - CE, CH and ACIM I appreciate the nimbleness of your mind all the more, especially in light of the larger framing of a larger plan. So agree. We do tend - as individuals - to get in our own way. All part of the waking up I suppose. Interesting we are attracted to similar voices, or 'anchoring' perspectives and of course, even with their differences - and we want that - find they are complementary.
I tend to think of the human experience as a kaleidoscope with endless fractals; (and expressions) each one representing each of us and reflecting back a unique view that clarifies or obscures the whole.
Where I differ on the Course is I don't believe it's our dream of guilt that has created this mess. Though perhaps that's layered in. I do believe our planet was infiltrated (as does Clif) and we've been dealing with the distortions ever since, and so now see even ourselves with the significant limitations (about who we are) that emerged within those distortions. We don't yet know what free humanity does because it's been so damn long since we've been free. The dream of guilt was (IMO) given to us. That's the difference. The point of including that is not to accept victimhood but to identify what's behind the anti-human agenda. It's not human. Humans are pro-human. WE have though, adapted to these anti-human distortions it and in doing so taken on many of its attributes.
A big, cosmic story, appropriately, since we are Big cosmic beings.
And yes, nothing real is threatened. We can't lose anything that wasn't really ours. And that intelligence behind LIFE (even under captured forces,) never disappears and we always have access to it. What a long play, drama, comedy and tragedy.
Well that's my truncated take. Appreciate you, Tereza. Or should I call you Terez?
"There’s an intelligence that orchestrates and organizes all things and places us in the conditions where we have the opportunity to say yes or no to..."
But is it benevolent? I have my doubts, as did Tyler Durden in Fight Club.
"Listen to me. You have to consider the possibility that God does not like you. He never wanted you. In all probability, he hates you. This is not the worst thing that can happen." —Tyler Durden
A big YES to Terez syndrome! I’m going to practice it today!
YOU are fantastic at having such a width and depth of interests and topics and I read every one of your posts. I appreciate how you stretch my brain and encourage me to think AND encourage me to be a better person. Thank you for what you bring to the world and to the space between the stories.
I will be watching! I'm no 5 who listens to Clif. For a long time now...connecting to the Course in Miracles!!! Read it many moons ago. Should be interesting!
What a feast, Tereza! I happened to listen to the Charles talk, and I follow Clif (and was a student of CIM) so I'm looking forward to listening to your take. The space between stories must be 'up' for many of us - I wrote a recent stack call 'The In-Between' as that's what I'm calling the place I've been residing in. (It doesn't have the same rules) Thanks will comment post listening again. (Love how you never shy away from 'BIG' topics.)

Blue ridge mountain was beautiful! I liked in Jacksonville N.C for 6 years I learned a lot when I was a kid.

I also listen to Clif! Bit woo woo at times but fascinating. Will watch your videos when I get time. Got tons of stacks to plough through.
