Awaken to Love

In this uplifting talk, Jenny Maria and Barret De La Luz share a beautiful reminder: our only true relationship is the one we share with the Divine. Through prayer, you come to experience that minds are joined, even while bodies may appear to be apart.True self-realization is the quiet recognition that nothing exists outside of you. To see it otherwise is to doubt the infinite nature of the Creator. You are not a body; you are pure, eternal Spirit. Rather than trying to understand this intellectually, you are called to live it. Step out of time, release the weight of old beliefs, and come into the peace of the present moment.19th of December 2026, Awaken to Love centre Spain 🌟Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/a-course-in-miracles-awaken-to-love--386884/support.Jenny Maria and Barret share a path of spiritual awakening through A Course in Miracles.

Guided by Barret De La Luz, this ACIM Satsang opens with a reading from Chapter 20: The Vision of Sinlessness, inviting a deep contemplation of this profound section from the mystical text of A Course in Miracles.In this Satsang, Barret explores how perception arises from the meaning we first assign inside the mind, revealing that the world reflects our chosen purpose rather than defining it.You can also watch this Satsang on our Youtube channel: Jenny Maria & Barret’s YouTube ChannelUsing the analogy of a ceiling fan, Barret illustrates how suffering persists through the habit of choosing to identify with ego thinking again and again. Each judgment, grievance, or desire to be a victim turns the switch back on, keeping the "fan" in motion. Healing is not a struggle, but a willingness to stop feeding the pattern — allowing the momentum to fade and peace to arise on its own.A conversation unfolds around the weight of expectations and the many ideas of how we believe we should be. Through honest sharing about people-pleasing and discernment, participants explore the courage required to follow inner guidance — including learning that sometimes the most loving response is a sincere and peaceful no.A helpful dialogue touches on following one’s calling despite family expectations; how a free and mystic Christian lives from inner listening and guidance rather than conformity. The Satsang points toward stepping beyond limiting relationship roles and familiar comfort zones, answering what Jenny Maria describes as the call that comes in a fortunate life — the call to be free from the cycle of bondage to a fixed identity.Throughout the ACIM Satsang with Jenny Maria De La Luz and Barret De La Luz, the mind is invited back to the quiet recognition that meaning is not found in the world, but arises from within. As the belief in separation softens, what once seemed heavy begins to lose its reality, and vision gently replaces judgment. What has no true meaning falls away on its own, revealing the peace that was never absent — only overlooked.31st July 2024, A Course in Miracles | ACIMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/a-course-in-miracles-awaken-to-love--386884/support.Jenny Maria and Barret share a path of spiritual awakening through A Course in Miracles.

A Course in Miracles: Guided by Jenny Maria De La Luz and Barret De La Luz, this ACIM Satsang offers a deep and transformative exploration of special relationships — revealing how the ego seeks completion through another while secretly reinforcing separation. With clarity, warmth, and practical insight, the teachings gently expose the illusions that shape relationships and self-concepts in this world, allowing what once felt intensely meaningful to soften and open to a higher understanding of love.You can also watch this Satsang on our Youtube channel: Jenny Maria & Barret’s YouTube ChannelThrough ACIM’s uncompromising clarity, participants are invited to question the hidden purpose of specialness: if a relationship were truly seen as a triumph over God, would it still be desired? This ACIM Satsang points toward a profound shift — love is content, never form. Whenever love is sought through ritual, roles, or external conditions, what is vast and holy is made small and insignificant. Yet this recognition is not condemning, but freeing, as illusions lose their power when they are gently seen for what they are.The conversation unfolds into a living exploration of healing, willingness, and awakening. Jenny Maria speaks of the many self-concepts the mind creates and how the light of awareness dissolves them layer by layer. The spiritual path appears to unfold along a timeline, yet awakening is always found in the present moment — echoing David Hoffmeister’s reminder that it is “a journey until it becomes a point.” Like turning a strand of spaghetti from length into a single dot, perception shifts from time into the holy instant, where salvation is already complete.7th January 2026, A Course in Miracles | ACIMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/a-course-in-miracles-awaken-to-love--386884/support.Jenny Maria and Barret share a path of spiritual awakening through A Course in Miracles.

Are you ready to let go of planning and go deeper into trust? Jenny Maria reminds us that planning is a defense against the truth. Reading from Lesson 135, “If I defend myself, I am attacked,” she points us inward to the mind, where true healing begins. This opens the way to release control and trust the Holy Spirit’s guidance, rather than our past learning.This session was recorder in our centre in Cape Town, South Africa on the 2nd of November 2025Thank you for listening and feel free to share this episode with someone who might be inspired by it! ✨Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/a-course-in-miracles-awaken-to-love--386884/support.Jenny Maria and Barret share a path of spiritual awakening through A Course in Miracles.

In this heartfelt session, Jenny Maria encourages us to release our attempts to fix the dream, and instead question the guilt that gives rise to it. With openness and honesty, we can bring everything that feels heavy or hidden to the light. As we learn to question the “sad song” we have been telling ourselves, a new way of seeing opens—one that leads us gently back to stillness, where the Answer we are seeking is received. 💖Recorded at the Awaken to Love center, Spain 12th March, 2026Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/a-course-in-miracles-awaken-to-love--386884/support.Jenny Maria and Barret share a path of spiritual awakening through A Course in Miracles.

In this profound talk with Jenny Maria De La Luz, you are welcomed beyond the body. Release the story of your personal self and the striving of the “hero of the dream.” When you uncover and set down the ego, innocence is remembered - awakening to reality unfolds naturally. Lightness is born of not needing to understand, but simply to trust and let love reinterpret all things!With teachings from The Obstacles to Peace, Chapter 19.IV and The Hero of the Dream, Chapter 27.VIII in A Course in MiraclesRecorded at the Awaken to Love center, Spain 1st March, 2026Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/a-course-in-miracles-awaken-to-love--386884/support.Jenny Maria and Barret share a path of spiritual awakening through A Course in Miracles.

What if the very Guide sent to free you is the One you secretly distrust? In this revealing ACIM Satsang, Barret De La Luz explores the inner conflict around trusting the Holy Spirit — and why awakening can feel so challenging because of it.You can also watch this Satsang on our Youtube channel: Jenny Maria & Barret’s YouTube ChannelDrawing from a passage in A Course in Miracles, Barret looks at the uncomfortable idea that we “think the loss of sin is a curse.” While we say we want freedom, something in us resists the message that we are completely innocent. Beneath that resistance is a distorted image of the Holy Spirit — a subtle suspicion that Guidance may not truly have our best interests at heart.At the same time, the ego presents itself as a loyal friend, promising protection and control, yet repeatedly leading us into suffering. Part of awakening is unmasking both illusions: the false image we place on the Holy Spirit, and the ego’s false friendliness.Barret reminds us that trust grows through experience. We are not asked to trust far — just to take the next obvious step. Each small willingness eases fear and strengthens confidence in the Spirit's Guidance.In a helpful exchange with a participant, Barret encourages balance on the healing path — allowing emotions to surface, but not becoming fixated on the shadow. This is not meant to be a grueling journey through darkness. Joy is essential to remembering on the path to Home.The Satsang closes with the powerful declaration from ACIM Lesson 216: “I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me.”The A Course in Miracles text reading is from Chapter 25. VIII.

Jenny Maria and Barret De La Luz open this ACIM Satsang with a prayer, dedicating the time to Holy Spirit. Jenny Maria then guides us through A Course in Miracles, Lesson 158: “Today I learn to give as I receive,” opening into an exploration of forgiveness, vision, and how we see ourselves through our brothers.You can also watch this Satsang on our Youtube channel: Jenny Maria & Barret’s YouTube ChannelA Course in Miracles Lesson 158 invites us into the recognition that revelation cannot be taught, only revealed, and that time itself is an illusion. The journey is already complete, yet forgiveness is needed as we seem to look back on what has gone by, allowing the illusion itself to gently dissolve.The beginning part of this session highlights the difference between experience and vision. Experience cannot be given, but vision can. Christ’s vision looks beyond bodies, beyond personal identity, beyond stories of birth and death, and beholds only the light in the Son of God.The teaching comes alive through sharing around fear, control, and the experiences of power struggle within relationships. Jenny Maria points to the subtle moment where a power struggle truly begins — the thought “I don’t want to give in.” From here, surrender is re-framed not as giving something up or losing anything, but as strength. What once seemed necessary no longer serves, and now surrender will serve.A participant later shares gratitude for the openness of the sharing and the clarity of the response, recognising how deeply supportive and illuminating the exchange was. Throughout this ACIM Satsang, we are reminded that each encounter is a holy encounter, and that learning to give as we receive is the joyful path back to peace.7th February, 2026 🌟 A Course in Miracles | ACIM Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/a-course-in-miracles-awaken-to-love--386884/support.Jenny Maria and Barret share a path of spiritual awakening through A Course in Miracles.

Today’s lesson is a beautiful reminder that we can always change our minds about what we perceive. Whenever we experience distress, we are looking at the world through an ego filter. Whenever something arises that doesn’t feel peaceful or loving, we can remind ourselves, “There is another way of looking at this.” How simple it is to change our minds! We can set the goal of peace in everything we do. A Course in Miracles, Lesson 33 - There is another way of looking at the world.

Today we are invited to look with Spirit at everything in our life and in our mind. It’s only what is disowned and not accepted, that is projected. We can practice to see what we want to recognize, which is God in all things. Then we’re not keeping what we see separate from us, but allowing ourselves to join with it.

In this joyful ACIM Satsang, we come together in openness, laughter, and shared listening, allowing the Holy Spirit to reinterpret our everyday experiences. Through gentle teachings, heartfelt sharing, and simple moments of trust, miracles are revealed not as rare events, but as natural shifts into love, ease, and presence.You can also watch this Satsang on our Youtube channel: Jenny Maria & Barret’s YouTube ChannelBeginning with a reading from A Course in Miracles, the focus turns toward the small part of the mind that believes it is separate, and the invitation to let this mistaken thought be lovingly returned to the Holy Spirit, where it can be healed.As the gathering goes on, the tone becomes light, playful, and celebratory. Stories are shared of guidance appearing in the most natural ways—chance conversations, unexpected kindness, doors opening exactly when needed. What the Course calls miracles, are revealed not as dramatic events, but as simple shifts in perception: moments where fear loosens, control is dropped, and love quietly takes the lead.Participants openly share their lived experiences—moments of vulnerability, trust, and willingness—where anxiety gives way to peace, and tightness in the mind softens into laughter.Throughout the satsang, there is a strong sense of companionship—of walking together, healing together, and celebrating together. The Holy Spirit is not distant or abstract here, but intimate, personal, and joyfully present. Love is felt as something we fall into again and again, not something we have to earn or seek.This is a Satsang filled with warmth, humour, and heartfelt connection—an invitation to relax into trust, to notice the miracles already happening, and to remember that joy itself is one of God’s most natural gifts.16th April, 2025 ~ A Course in Miracles | ACIM 🌟Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/a-course-in-miracles-awaken-to-love--386884/support.Jenny Maria and Barret share a path of spiritual awakening through A Course in Miracles.
