A Course in Miracles
2023-09-06 19:00 - 20:30, 2023-09-13 19:00 - 20:30 UTC | France
A Course in Miracles: each week we begin our exploration by reading the short introduction which includes these words “the course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim however at removing the blocks to the awareness of Love’s presence which is your natural inheritance.”
Has any other subject been written or sung about more often than love? Isn’t it the organizing principle of all religions? So popular and prominent in our daily discourse, yet so elusive. And don’t we yearn for an alternative to fear, guilt and hatred, suspicion and divisiveness?

Whether a beginner, a student of many years, or an on-again/off again inquirer, you are invited to join us in seeking to learn how to love and enjoy being in love. It’s not a solo performance. Only together, is love manifest.

Every group will have a space to rehearse privately before they eventually perform and are filmed with multiple cameras in front of a live audience. This performance will then be played back for directors to critique. Actors will have the opportunity to keep the footage to use as a demo reel. All this happens in one evening with multiple groups. Make sure you sign up and join the talented New England community!
TO JOIN, SIGN UP AND LEARN MORE, GO TO: https://ravisionproductions.com/wda/, and share with friends. Price is $30.
