My Experience at the Take Me to Truth Workshop

by Laurie Immekus

imageEven though I’ve been studying A Course in Miracles since 1990, I must admit I’m still having a nebulous experience with peace. Sometimes I’m able to enter peace by doing the things that I’ve learned will and can lead to peace. Other times I’m not able to enter it, and I know that is a form of resistance. I know that resistance is my listening to the ego — fear thoughts.

I recently attended a workshop at Pathways of Light presented by Nouk Sanchez and Tomas Vieira, who wrote the book, Take Me to Truth. In this workshop they helped me with the process of realizing that I need to trust everyone, for minds are joined. Just meeting them, and even before that. Just hearing about them helped. I was helped through healing, which is of the mind. And minds are joined, so I’m not surprised that I knew so much about them without having heard from or spoken with them before.

The moment they walked in the door at Pathways they were loving and gentle. They opened their arms and embraced me as if I were an old friend even though we had never met or talked before and they didn’t know who I was. They were just open and loving and caring and giving. That’s either an endorsement for lunacy or loving, depending on your perspective.

In the world’s perspective, all this trusting is lunacy. “Trust No One! Minds are Separate!” is the world’s motto.

But Nouk and Tomas teach as the Course does. Trust everyone for you and they are One. No separation. In Oneness we learn to trust for minds are joined. So when I am practicing thinking higher thoughts, I am going to be looking for the love and light in others as much as I am able to at that time rather than looking for the errors and flaws. Minds are joined. When I am joined in miracle thinking, that is, in seeing that what is in someone else’s best interest is equally in my best interest, healing happens for all. I can trust my brother because when I am healed I am not healed alone.

Thank you Nouk and Tomas for the fine work you have done. I appreciate what you teach about embracing the holy relationship. You teach through your example, and through your thoughtful study and dedication of your lives to trust, which you shared with us in your workshop. I’m looking forward to future meetings with you. I know that no matter what you have to teach at that time, you will be trusting, and in being trusting, teaching trust. That is so healing for all of us, for when someone trusts you, you know it. For minds are joined.

If you want a workshop that is a healing experience, this is the one. Trust me.
