The self-help literature is rife with works that promise to teach us the secret to health, wealth and happiness, which almost always involves the power of positive thinking. These books fail to address the fundamental problem that lies at the core of our dissatisfaction. We don't know what we want. So we bounce from one desire to the next, in search of a better job, an alluring relationship, an investment that will make us rich, or someone who will share her spiritual secrets to happiness with us. From Never Mind to Ever Mind takes a different approach, based on the teachings of A Course in Miracles. We can't find happiness because we don't know where or how to look! Happiness comes from truth and truth resides within. We must first recognize our true identity, which, according to A Course in Miracles, is Spirit. Only when we recognize and remove the obstacles to our true nature-to the presence of love within us, and within all beings-will we know the truth of who we are. From Never Mind to Ever Mind will lead the listener on a journey of undoing, informed by the teaching of A Course in Miracles. It will demonstrate conclusively the false assumptions from which our current sense of self is constructed so that we can gently release them and experience instead the refreshing, cleansing breeze of Spirit blowing into our lives. We don't know what will make us happy, but our true self does. And it will gladly reveal itself and show us the way, quite miraculously, if and when we let it.

If one wants to remain in the moment, what does one do about the mind? Never mind! The mind does what the mind does. It is working and functioning perfectly, doing exactly what it has been designed and programmed to do. So says, Wayne Liquorman, one of the world's premier non-dual Teachers. His teaching hammers away at the basic misconceptions that bring about human suffering -- I could have and should have done it differently. I am flawed. I am the author of my thoughts, feelings and actions. Wayne's teaching points to the divine nature of everything that exists, no matter how hurtful or painful it might be. According to Wayne, everything is the perfect manifestation of the Source and it is in the acceptance of everything that peace is revealed.
