A Course In Miracles - Dr. K. Wapnick in Toronto
Seminar with
Dr. Kenneth Wapnick
Perhaps one of the best ways of introducing Dr. Kenneth Wapnick, who is considered almost universally to be the foremost living expert on A Course in Miracles, is to visit the website of The Foundation for A Course in Miracles at http://www.facim.org/.
There you will see over 27 books authored by him (and still counting), and more than 200 audio visual works featuring Dr. Wapnick and his teachings.
On a personal level, he is one of the warmest, most approachable individuals you will ever want to meet. As a speaker, Ken is a model of simple, accurate, and in depth description of truth, without judgment. Ken goes to the inner heart of what one’s ego desperately wants to keep hidden and normally treats as being too complex, dangerous, contentious and painful to examine. He does this with humour and brilliance. At times, Ken is like a fast paced stand up comedian, keeping everyone in stitches as he releases all their sacred cows.
Narcissism, The Ego’s Myth, will deal with the ego's self-love that is the ultimate source of our mortality. The Greek myth of the young man so smitten with himself that he ends up dying rather than destroying his image, will form the central theme of this seminar. Ken will be contrasting the thought system of self-centeredness with the message of selflessness, that substitutes the shared interests that unite us within the illusion for the ego's philosophy of one or the other, which dictates everything we think, feel, and do in the world.
We thus move beyond the ego's myth of separation to Jesus' myth of Atonement, the condition for awakening to our Self which is the ultimate end of all narcissism. Join us welcoming Ken to Toronto. Maybe together we can remember to laugh at the tiny mad idea of separation, that turned into a world!
Quotes from Ken’s Workshops:
“Family is just another way to learn forgiveness. Live your life with more kindness, with more joy and happiness, and this will help you awaken from the dream.”
“...there is in truth no one out there to forgive. What we really forgive [or release] are our projections of guilt we have placed on figures in our dreams that we scripted to be our special love or special hate partners.”
“You don’t get to the Light until you go through the darkness.”
