“The true escape is in the mind.” In this powerful conversation with David Hoffmeister, Dale Crowe shares his extraordinary journey from a life defined by boxing, pride, and prison to a profound encounter with forgiveness and love.

Dale’s story is a living demonstration of the deep truth of A Course in Miracles: nothing real can be threatened, and all healing is of the mind. From meeting his childhood bully and embracing innocence to dropping every mask of identity, Dale discovered that true freedom isn’t found in the world but in the quiet release of the heart.Resources and Links:• Join Dale Crowe’s weekly show Released in Purpose: Come Home with Me inside Tribe of Christ.

Day 21 - "The Dream Behind the Drama" - Tabula Rasa Mystery School with David Hoffmeister and Kirsten Buxton

Tabula Rasa Mystery School - Day 21: "The Dream Behind the Drama"David and Kirsten discuss the idea that life is like a movie directed by our ego, not by God, which allows us to see our experiences as acts rather than ultimate truths. By observing our thoughts and feelings, we can realize that our interpretations shape our experiences, similar to how a character in a film becomes aware of the acting around them. This awareness can reduce the intensity of our emotional responses, akin to lucid dreaming, and facilitate forgiveness. Ultimately, being aware that we are dreaming helps us not to take life too seriously, allowing us to open up to healing and a new purpose.For more information about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded live on June 25, 2025, at Casa de Milagros, Chapala, Mexico.
