Guest: Marianne Williamson, Author, Speaker, Candidate for the Democratic Party Nomination for President in 2024 (The Guest interview begins at 27:00) ---- ---- 1. Commentary by Elaine B. Holtz: Joining me on the phone today will be Marianne Williamson, a political activist, author, non-denominational spiritual lecturer, and New York Times bestselling author. She also was a candidate for President in 2020 and is putting her hat in the ring again for the 2024 Presidential Election. Announcement: I am so excited to announce my granddaughter Katelyn Beverly Jensen and Trevor Elliott will be tying the knot, yes, getting married on Oct. 5, 2024. Amazing. Congratulations to both of them. I feel so blessed. Life is such a gift. Even with all the trials and tribulations we must never miss joy as it presents itself. 2. Our Guest, Marianne Williamson, shares how synchronistic events led her in 1976 to discover and begin reading The Course in Miracles that was just published in New York City. She visited the publisher Foundation for Inner Peace, where she talked with its co-founder Judy Skutch. She realized that she would love to teach this Course and began teaching it passionately while a part-time secretary. It began as a labor of love, volunteering to spread the good news of the Course. In her hometown of Houston, Marianne felt the guidance to move to Los Angeles. The AIDS epidemic was just beginning to produce casualties in especially the gay community, and many AIDS patients attended the lectures. This created a community of interest and compassion. In 1992 Marianne was encouraged to write a book based on her taped lectures. She never considered herself a writer and prayed for guidance when a literary agent showed up at one of her lectures and offered to be her agent. Her first book, A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles, was published by Harper Collins. It caught the attention of Oprah Winfrey, who interviewed Marianne Williamson and catapulted her to national and international attention, with the book spending 29 weeks on the New York Times Bestselling List. Marianne attributes the success by her not putting money as priority, but the love of sharing the Course, and the love for the attendees of her lectures, especially for the gay community afflicted with AIDS. She believes selflessness is rewarded. Her biggest advice is: Get over yourself! It is not about you! Marianne became active in charity with the non-profit organizations she founded: Center for Living in 1987, Project Angel Food in 1989, and the Peace Alliance in 1998. She was also a minister in Unity and in other denominations. In 1998 her book Healing the Soul of America was published. She realized that humanity and the planet were on a destructive trajectory, and that changing oneself is changing the world, too. Marianne counters the dismissal of politics and religious discussions at gatherings of friends and family, as policies and beliefs do determine much of our experience. We live in a world saturated with information and stimuli that serve as a distraction to the needs of our true self and that of our planet. Marianne discovered that politics receives her much differently than her teaching people how to activate spiritual principles, as it exposes her to the corruption, lies and insults that plague our politics. She also saw how the media favors certain kinds of politicians and basically ignores her and her message. She feels her campaign for President is for saving people, to put power back to We the People. Marianne deplores that only 20% of Americans are doing well, while so many others cannot meet an extra bill and live with economic despair. This creates a petri dish of societal dysfunction. She feels she is a compelling alternative to Donald Trump and that we should stop obsessing about him. She quotes FDR: We do not have to worry about Fascist takeover if democracy delivers on its blessings. Some of the issues Marianne supports are Universal Healthcare, Tuition for College, Child Care, Paid Family Leave, a Guaranteed Living Wage, Department of Peace, a Department of Children and Youth, the end to the War on Drugs, Women's Rights and LGBTQ Rights. Taxing the rich and not the middle class would fund her programs. Marianne Williamson believes that we can achieve the world we want if we work together, and she asks for support of her campaign.
