He explains how Singapore's language policy means he no longer speaks the languages of his grandparents, which his parents use to openly hide secrets from him.Sam also provides his insightful take on the differences between audiences in Singapore, continental Europe and the UK.Due to your host's friendship with Sam, there have been a lot of banters and swear words so apologies for the numerous beeps this episode!---------------------------------Follow Sam on Instagram, Twitter and his websiteFollow your host Kuan-wen on Instagram and Twitter---------------------------------If you like the episode, please share it and leave a review.

See English version of this same episode number 23b (English) in a separate release.Un premier: The Effect on Us en français!!!Pour cet épisode, j'ai voyagé de Montréal à Paris afin de rencontrer Rachel Krolik, la veuve de Joël Krolik.Joël était le cousin germain de ma grand-mère paternelle, un enfant caché pendant la 2e guerre mondiale.Rachel est la dernière rescapée de la Shoah de ma famille qui est toujours en vie.

(See English below) Tilbage i marts, da landet stadig var lukket meget ned, havde jeg besøg af britiske Charlotte Rowan fra Liverpool, som er dirigent og sidste år som den første kvinde tiltrådte stillingen som korleder for Herning Kirkes Drengekor. Koret er anerkendt for deres høje niveau og rejser hele verden rundt for at optræde med deres smukke stemmer i de største koncertsale. Charlotte dirigerer desuden barbershop-koret WondAros – det første af sin slags for kvinder i Danmark. Hun fortæller om arbejdet med begge kor og om, hvorfor det er vigtigt at have diskussionen om køn inden for korverdenen, der på sangerniveau domineres af kvinder. Derudover kan vi glæde fodboldfolket med, at vi i programmet går i dybden med sangen ”You'll Never Walk Alone” i en version med drengekoret, som vil røre enhver sand Liverpool-fan. Back in March, when Denmark was still in lockdown, British Charlotte Rowan from Liverpool visited me in the podcast. Charlotte works as a conductor and last year she, as the first woman, took the job as conductor of Herning Kirkes Drengekor (Herning Church's Boys' Choir) which is acknowledged for a high musical standard and travels around the world to perform in famous concert halls. Charlotte also conducts the barbershop choir WondAros – the first of its kind for women in Denmark. She tells us about her work with both choirs and about why it is important to have the discussion about gender within the choir world where there are more female than male singers. Additionally, we dig into the football anthem “You'll Never Walk Alone” in a version sung by the boys' choir that will move every true Liverpool fan.

En esta cuarta y última sesión del retiro en línea con traducción al español, “Despertar del Sueño”, David Hoffmeister comparte muchas historias poderosas acerca de la importancia de seguir la guía. Muchas veces en el camino espiritual, se nos pide dar un “salto de fe”, y todas las dificultades que experimentamos viene solamente cuando evitamos esas oportunidades. El Espíritu Santo siempre nos ofrece una amorosa invitación para unirnos a Él en el propósito del Despertar; y aún así, el ego siempre percibe al Espíritu Santo como una amenaza. Por lo tanto, debemos mantenernos muy abiertos y honestos con nosotros mismos para asegurarnos que estamos dispuestos a seguir al Espíritu en lugar del ego. Así es como se vive una vida de gozo.  Grabado el 21 de enero de 2018 en el Centro Metafísico de Living Miracles en Kamas, Utah. https://un-curso-en-milagros.org/————ENGLISH————Following GuidanceIn this fourth and final session of the “Awakening from the Dream” online retreat with Spanish translation, David Hoffmeister shares many powerful stories about the importance of following guidance. Many times on the spiritual journey, we are asked to take a “leap of faith”, and all the struggle that we experience comes solely from when we avoid these opportunities. The Holy Spirit is always offering us a loving invitation to join Him in the Purpose of Awakening, and yet, the ego always perceives the Holy Spirit as a threat. Therefore, we must stay very open-minded and honest with ourselves to ensure that we are willing to follow the Spirit instead of the ego. This is how to live a life of Joy.Recorded January 21, 2018 at the Living Miracles Metaphysical Center in Kamas, Utah.http://livingmiracles.org/events

https://un-curso-en-milagros.org/(See ENGLISH translation further down.)“El fin del tiempo” Episodio de Star Trek para el DespertarPara esta tercera sesión de “Despertar del Sueño” con traducción al español, David Hoffmeister y Jason Warwick muestran una versión “mini película” de un profundo episodio de Star Trek que muestra el deshacer de la creencia en el tiempo linear. Lee el resumen de la película abajo para más información acerca del episodio y las ideas discutidas en este comentario que están relacionadas con “Un curso de milagros”.Grabado el 20 de enero de 2018 en el Centro Metafísico de Living Miracles en Kamas, Utah. https://un-curso-en-milagros.org/Resumen de la Película:El comandante Sisko, el personaje principal de este episodio maestro de la serie Star Trek, siente un fuerte disgusto en contra del Capitán Piccard. En el episodio anterior, el cuerpo del Capitán Piccard había sido secuestrado por otra raza, tomando completo control de su mente. Estando bajo esta manipulación, ordena un ataque en contra de la nave de Sisko, en donde pierde la vida su esposa Jennifer. En este episodio Piccard está de regreso sano y salvo, retomando su puesto de comandante de la Flota Estelar, y a Sisko le cuesta tomar sus órdenes, evidentemente está muy enojado con él. Está reprimiendo el disgusto.Los disgustos van más allá de la persona, más allá de una memoria específica personal. Tenemos un problema con la memoria, la mente recuerda constantemente el pasado; quiere que algo del pasado, del tiempo y espacio, sea real. Cuando la mente quiere hacer algo real aquí en el espacio-tiempo, trae al recuerdo escenarios. Es impecable para recordarnos el pasado y el ego para negar los malos recuerdos y aferrarse a los buenos. Pero son lo mismo, es posible integrarlos, al intentarlo nos daremos cuenta que dimos un gran paso hacia una verdadera sanación.  Sisko es enviado a ayudar a una raza caracterizada por tener un halo brillante color verde, que simboliza la Luz. A través de varios personajes y escenas del pasado, esta Luz le demuestra a Sisko que es imposible atribuirle valor a lo que no lo tiene en lo absoluto. Le permite ver con claridad que nada es real y es así como puede ser capaz de perdonar y liberar el pasado.  Todo el tiempo lineal, el cosmos entero, es sólo un sueño de situaciones hipotéticas que no tienen significado; podemos decir que existimos en cada una de ellas. Para sanar hay que traer a la luz nuestras memorias reprimidas y verlas como son, carentes de significado. Podemos transformar cualquier disgusto con esta comprensión de que nada tiene significado. La única oportunidad real que tenemos en el tiempo lineal es despertar a nuestra naturaleza eterna que es Amor abstracto perfecto y luz Eterna.————ENGLISH————"Time's End" episode from Star Trek(edited from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, season 1, episodes 1 & 2)https://mwge.org/For this third session of the “Awakening from the Dream” with Spanish translation, David Hoffmeister and Jason Warwick show a “mini-movie” version of a profound Star Trek episode that illustrates the undoing of the belief in linear time! Read the movie summary below to learn more about the episode and the ideas discussed in this commentary, which relate it to the teachings of A Course in Miracles! If you want to watch this episode, subscribe to mwge.org at the Master Pop level and then search in Movies for “Star Trek Deep Space Nine Emissary”.Recorded January 20, 2018 at the Living Miracles Metaphysical Center in Kamas, Utah.Movie Summary (from MWGE.org):Commander Sisko, the main character in this masterful Star Trek episode, starts off with a grievance against Captain Picard. In the previous episode, Captain Picard's mind and body had been taken over and absorbed by another race. He had then ordered an attack on Sisko's ship in which Sisko's wife, Jennifer, was killed. In this episode Picard has returned to his mind and to his job as overall commander of the Starfleet. Sisko comes to Picard to receive an important new assignment, but he is clearly angry at Picard. He is holding a grievance.  Grievances go beyond the person, beyond the specific personal memory. We have a memory problem. The mind recalls the past; it wants something of the past, of time and space, to be real. As long as it wants something in time and space to be real, it calls forth scenarios. The mind continues bringing up the past relentlessly. The ego tries to deny and repress the negative ones, and to hold on to and keep the positive ones. Only when you finally integrate them and see that they are all the same, do you have a real breakthrough, a real healing. The race of people that Sisko is sent to help have a glowing green orb that symbolizes the Light. The Light uses various characters to show Sisko that it's impossible to put any value on something that is absolutely valueless. It lets him experience scenes from the past until he realizes that none of them had any reality. Thus he is able to forgive and release them. All of linear time, this entire cosmos, is just a dream of hypotheticals that have no meaning. We could say you exist in all of them. To heal, repressed memories have to be brought up to the light and seen for the nothingness that they are. You can then transfer this realization of nothingness to any grievance and see it totally transformed. The only real opportunity in linear time is to wake up to your eternal nature which is perfect abstract Love and Eternal light.https://mwge.org/
