The Course is relatively unique among the world's spiritualities in its emphasis on uncovering the darkness buried deeply within our minds, so that the ego can be exposed to the healing light of forgiveness and disappear, allowing the truth of our reality to return to our awareness. The process for most of us is a gradual one of undoing all our false beliefs about who we are, who our brothers are, and Who God is. These beliefs cannot be undone however if we are not aware of them but have invested their effects—the world and our bodies—with unquestioned "reality." For November, we are featuring two programs where Kenneth dives deeply into these foundational beliefs so that we may learn to become more willing to look at them without fear or guilt. This is possible only with our gentle inner Teacher beside us to assist in the undoing process, opening our minds to the experience of the light, love, joy, and peace that are always there within, but covered by our beliefs in darkness.

Kenneth often refers to these five seeming laws in his teaching because they are fundamental to a deeper understanding of the deceptive nature of the ego thought system and why it persists in maintaining such a powerful hold on all our thinking. These are the laws upon which our entire world is based, providing the foundation for all our relationships within this world. They are insane, but we nonetheless believe them and cherish them. Kenneth has devoted the entire program to their exploration and study because of their central role in the Course's teaching, both in exposing the pernicious duplicity of the ego and in leading us toward a greater appreciation of how true forgiveness offers the only solution.
