Gary Renard Podcast - ep014

Episode 14: Gary and Gene resume their conversation from the previous podcast episode, where Gary has brought up the concept that the world is not being done "to us", but rather is being done "by us". Gene follows up with the example that the Course holds God in a much higher esteem than most religions traditionally have, in that God is not at all responsible for any of the terrible things that happen in this world; Gary responds with comments concerning the concept of duality, and how that must reflect a "separation" from the whole, from the perfect Oneness of God. Gene presents to Gary two questions from listeners, which are on the same topic, and are in fact related to the earlier discussions: is "the script" actually "written" and unchangeable, or are we able to influence and change our outcomes? The second question goes a step further in asking Gary how this applies to an experience such as he had at the Indian mound in Cahokia, as described in "Your Immortal Reality". Gary's closing commentary reflects on the idea that the power of choice over what we think, is the source of real peace and power, and is ultimately unaffected by anything that may appear to happen in the material world.
