Although we have made the world with all of our relationships as a place intended to exclude God and His Love, Kenneth focuses in this program on how a shift in purpose for the world and our relationships can allow us to begin to experience the reflection of His Love in every aspect of our lives here, if we are willing to use them all to help us to heal our mind through the gentle practice of forgiveness. Everything in our lives becomes of value in the process as a means to get in touch with the faulty, now unconscious, decision we have made for the ego and its darkness, so that we can now make a different choice for happiness and peace.

We all spend a significant portion of our lives engaged in the hopeless pursuit of happiness in a world that was made to preclude happiness. We persist in our seeking, never allowing ourselves to accept the impossibility of the goal we have set for ourselves, hoping and believing, despite all our failures, that elusive happiness is right around the corner in some relationship, situation, or accomplishment. Kenneth uncovers the deceptive ego strategy behind what has actually been a series of deliberate decisions we have made with the ego to deny our true happiness and ensnare ourselves in a descent, step by step, into a trap of unsatisfying specialness. Our only hope is to recognize the trap so that we can begin our ascent back up to the happiness that is our right and our reality, reflected in each of the steps we take on our return.

As we can begin to appreciate the joy and peace we are giving up with each of our angry attack thoughts, some more obvious and others more subtly veiled as milder reactions such as slight irritation or annoyance, the motivation to be vigilant for these thoughts of Self-sabotage will grow. This theme is a focus of the two programs that have been combined for this set. As part of the process, we begin to recognize how anger keeps us rooted in a bodily identification, while true joy and peace can be found only in our mind, as we increasingly identify with the Holy Spirit in our right mind through choosing against the ego. Kenneth allowed a significant amount of time in both programs to respond to many student questions on a wide range of topics, related to the program themes and beyond.
