The Art & Science of Blissful Living

Blisswork® is a three-step nondual forgiveness wisdom training programme that evolved from 13 years of my study and practice of A Course in Miracles.

1) Abide in True Forgiveness (Egoself)
Release all and all your experiences in duality, as unreal.
[You Are All—All Are You]

2) Abide in Sacred Guidance (Mindself)
Go within, and surrender to your pure guidance.
[Your Divine Spirit Is Your Guide]

3) Abide in Bliss (Spiritself)
Step in to the state of bliss, your eternal reality.
[You Are Your Source That Is Bliss/Love]

To reach this level of practice, you need some willingness and commitment. And some basic steps, of course. Here's a gentle way to look at it: Practise these three steps whenever you remember for, at least 90 days. Then you will be allowing this to be your first nature.

In case you need my help, I'll gladly guide you. There are a few preparatory practices to get here, that I teach in person. Ask your heart first. If there's a 'green light', email me.

"It is possible to reach a state
in which you bring your mind
under my guidance
without conscious effort,
but this implies a willingness
that you have not
developed as yet."

A Course in Miracles
(T-2.VI.6:1)

"Healing thus becomes a lesson in understanding, and the more you practice it, the better teacher and learner you become."

[ A Course in Miracles, ACIM, T-11.II.2:1 ]

"Turn the mind inward
and cease thinking
of yourself as the body;
thereby you will come
to know that the self
is ever happy."

Joshua Newton
Teacher of Nondual Forgiveness

Joshua Newton is a mentor in nondual forgiveness, sharing contemplative writings, images, and video talks from his base in India with students around the world.

Once a journalist, author, and screenwriter, in 2012 he turned to a deeper vocation: the study and practice of Advaita and then A Course in Miracles. After a series of direct experiences of 'no self' in 2015 and 2017 while living alone in Bangalore, he started looking at the ACIM teachings through pure nonduality without the aid of its Christian/anthropomorphic terminology.

He founded Blisswork® as an open platform for exploring the advaita of Jesus as taught by ACIM and NTI. His teaching often draws on the raw material of his own life—failures, epiphanies, and breakthroughs—offered as parables of how the mind remembers its true identity.
