Episode 45: "The End of Sacrifice" Podcast. Episode 45 begins with Gary talking about not really being "the bad boy of spirituality", as he was once described; but rather only being a spiritual pilgrim, just like anybody else… and simply being one who enjoys having a good time as much as anyone. Gary gives high praise to the newly released movie, "Lincoln," and talks about his and Cindy's upcoming holiday trip to Ohio. Gary discusses some of the issues he has encountered with various translations of his books, including into Russian. Gary then brings up the news about Gene's new CD recording, "The End of Sacrifice", Gene's narration from the Text of ACIM—particularly appropriate for release at this time of year, because it includes the well-known section from the Course known as "Christmas as the End of Sacrifice." Gary and Gene expand the conversation into the Course's teachings regarding the concepts of guilt and sacrifice, and all the subtlety that the Course brings to the understanding of these ideas. Gary's mention of Gene and Helen's recent 14th wedding anniversary leads into a discussion of relationships, and how human relationships can beautifully transform into Holy Relationships under the Holy Spirit's guidance. Gary then discusses the importance of the date December 21st, and its significance in his relationship with Arten and Pursah. There is discussion about the upcoming TV series based on "The Disappearance of the Universe", and its new website, "DOTUTV.com", where the first promotional trailers for the show will soon be seen. Gary reveals some new details about members of the show's cast, and speaks about the attitudes of the various people working on the TV series. Gary closes out this episode of the podcast with some thoughts about gratitude, and how it all applies to this remarkable Holiday season.
