Defenses: The Ego's Answer to Miracles – ACIM with Robert Rosenthal, M.D.

"Defenses are the costliest of all the prices which the ego would exact." Defense and attack are cornerstones of the ego's thought system. On the anniversary of the destruction of the Twin Towers, join Dr. Bob and Char for a discussion of the subtle yet essential role played by defenses in maintaining the ego's illusionary world of bodies, sin and guilt.  Call in with your questions or to discuss the ego’s defenses from the perspective of A Course in Miracles. Additional commentary is frequently offered from Dr. Bob’s book, From Plagues to Miracles. This will be a powerful and lively discussion of the deeper meaning of the ego's motivations. Dr. Bob serves as permanent Guest Co-Host every 2nd Thursday of the Month at 3:00 PM Eastern. A student of A Course in Miracles since before it was published, Dr. Bob was a close personal friend of Bill Thetford, Ph.D. (Co-Scribe of A Course in Miracles) and has served on the Board of Directors of the Foundation for Inner Peace, publisher of the Course, since 1992. He is a board-certified psychiatrist in private practice near Princeton, New Jersey and the author of From Plagues to Miracles: The Transformational Journey of Exodus, From the Slavery of Ego to the Promised Land of Spirit, released by Hay House in 2012. The book interprets the Biblical story of Exodus as an early attempt at A Course In Miracles. www.FromPlaguesToMiracles.com: Read excerpts or purchase this profound addition to your Spiritual Library. www.ACIM.org: Learn more about and purchase A Course in Miracles.
