I wish to thank Jason, and everyone at the Monastery again for welcoming me with such openness. I'm still amazed that I was granted this possibility to see shining samples of the teachings of A Course in Miracles, and for the first time in a lengthy while, I don't feel alone.

Element of me wanted to keep longer, but beneath that desire was the thought that I will be doing this for the incorrect reason; as a means to avoid my problems. The stronger feeling was, and is, that my travels will continue.

Before I left, Jason asked if I'd had any insights. What I'm about to generally share was not yet clear in those days; only on the drive away achieved it coalesce.acim

That morning, several lines from the Vance Joy song kept running through my head, “I never should have told you, never should have enable you to see inside. Don't are interested troubling the mind, won't you allow it to be?” This confused me as I could not consider anything that I'd stated that I felt regret for.

Eventually, the phrase, “don't are interested troubling your mind” stood out. This reminded me that the absolute most prominent fear I'd in visiting the Monastery was that I would somehow interfere having its residents'peace of mind, simply by my presence alone. This belief that I could negatively affect other people's state of mind has been with me for many years, and has colored a lot of my past experiences and relationships.

This fear left my awareness right after I arrived. On the drive away it rose again, but I remembered David saying in one of is own videos that minds cannot attack. I cried and laughed, and now feel as if the belief has been (has been?) released.

There are other issues that happened that felt important, but I can't consider them right now.
