W1:91.2  to failure to perceive it. Failure to perceive light is to perceive  darkness. The light is useless to you then, even though it is there.
W1:91.2  its presence is unknown to you. And the seeming reality of the  darkness makes the idea of light meaningless.

W1:92.7 Weakness, which looks in  darkness, cannot see a purpose in forgiveness and in love. It sees

W1:92.7  is strong and conquering, a victor over limitations that but grow in  darkness to enormous size. It fears and it attacks and hates itself,
W1:92.7  to enormous size. It fears and it attacks and hates itself, and  darkness covers everything it sees, leaving its dreams as fearful as

W1:121.3  afraid of every sound, yet more afraid of stillness; terrified of  darkness, yet more terrified at the approach of light.
W1:127.5  Seek not within the world to find your Self. Love is not found in  darkness and in death. Yet it is perfectly apparent to eyes that see
W1:129.9 Then close your eyes upon the world you see, and in the silent  darkness watch the lights that are not of this world light one by one

W1:130.3 What, then, can fear project upon the world? What can be seen in  darkness that is real? Truth is eclipsed by fear, and what remains is

W1:184.10  its unreality in terms which still have meaning in the world which  darkness rules.
W1:184.11 Use all the little names and symbols which delineate the world of  darkness. Yet accept them not as your reality. The Holy Spirit uses

W1:42.9  practice periods which would be most beneficial. The idea for the  day is a beginning step in bringing thoughts together and teaching

W1:95.20 Throughout the  day do not forget your goal. Repeat today's idea as frequently as
W1:96.17  the gift. Think, then, how much is given unto you to give this  day, that it be given you!

W1:R3.11  with you and let it serve to help you keep your peace throughout the  day as well. If you are shaken, think of it again. These practice
W1:R3.11  planned to help you form the habit of applying what you learn each  day to everything you do.
W1:R3.12  of any kind. Try, then, to take it with you in the business of the  day and make it holy, worthy of God's Son, acceptable to God and to
W1:121.13 Do not forget throughout the  day the role forgiveness plays in bringing happiness to every
W1:122.2  in your eyes as you awake and gives you joy with which to meet the  day. It soothes your forehead while you sleep and rests upon your
W1:122.2  malice, and attack. And when you wake again, it offers you another  day of happiness and peace. All this forgiveness offers you, and more.

W1:122.13 Let not your gifts recede throughout the  day, as you return again to meet a world of shifting change and bleak
W1:122.14  which has power to hold your gifts in your awareness through the  day:

W1:125.1 Let this day be a  day of stillness and of quiet listening. Your Father wills you hear

W1:126.11  can, remind yourself you have a goal today—an aim which makes this  day of special value to yourself and all your brothers. Do not let
W1:127.11 We will remember them throughout the  day because we cannot leave a part of us outside our love if we would
W1:128.8 Protect your mind throughout the  day as well. And when you think you see some value in an aspect or an
W1:129.4  and yet surely understood. Communication, unambiguous and plain as  day, remains unlimited for all eternity. And God Himself speaks to

W1:129.10  A day of grace is given you today, and we give thanks. This  day we realize that what you feared to lose was only loss.
W1:130.5 Today we will not seek for them nor waste this  day in seeking not what cannot be found. It is impossible to see two
W1:131.17  the Spirit Heaven sent you that you might approach this door some  day and through His aid slip effortlessly past it to the light. Today
W1:131.17  through His aid slip effortlessly past it to the light. Today that  day has come. Today God keeps His ancient promise to His holy Son, as
W1:131.17  to His holy Son, as does His Son remember his to Him. This is a  day of gladness, for we come to the appointed time and place where
W1:132.15  them. And we who are as He created us would loose the world this  day from every one of our illusions that we may be free.
W1:132.20 Throughout the  day, increase the freedom sent through your ideas to all the world,
W1:134.19 Forgiveness should be practiced through the  day, for there will be so many times when you forget its meaning and
W1:135.28 Try not to shape this  day as you believe would benefit you most. For you cannot conceive of
W1:135.28  giant stride and celebrate your Eastertime with you. Throughout the  day, as foolish little things appear to raise defensiveness in you
W1:135.28  you to engage in weaving plans, remind yourself this is a special  day for learning, and acknowledge it with this:
W1:137.12  only truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of healing will this  day go forth from what is healed to what must yet be healed, aware
W1:137.14 Yet must we be prepared for such a gift. And so we will begin the  day with this and give ten minutes to these thoughts with which we
W1:137.16 Let healing be through you this very  day. And as you rest in quiet, be prepared to give as you receive, to
W1:137.16  attack. Nor will we let this function be forgot as every hour of the  day slips by, remembering our function with this thought:
W1:138.12  hour in between. And now we give the last five minutes of our waking  day to the decision with which we awoke. As every hour passed, we
W1:138.12  quiet time devoted to maintaining sanity. And finally we close the  day with this, acknowledging we chose but what we want:
W1:140.11 We waken hearing Him and let Him speak to us five minutes as the  day begins and end the day by listening again five minutes more
W1:140.11  and let Him speak to us five minutes as the day begins and end the  day by listening again five minutes more before we go to sleep. Our
W1:140.14  prayer be given us as we attend in silence and in joy. This is the  day when healing comes to us. This is the day when separation ends
W1:140.14  and in joy. This is the day when healing comes to us. This is the  day when separation ends and we remember Who we really are.
W1:R4.7 Begin each  day with time devoted to the preparation of your mind to learn what
W1:R4.7  of your mind to learn what each idea you will review that  day can offer you in freedom and in peace. Open your mind and clear
W1:R4.9 Five minutes with this thought will be enough to set the  day along the lines which God appointed and to place His Mind in
W1:R4.9  place His Mind in charge of all the thoughts you will receive that  day. They will not come from you alone, for they will all be shared
W1:R4.10  read each of the two ideas assigned to you to be reviewed that  day. Then close your eyes and say them slowly to yourself. There is
W1:R4.10  given to you through His Voice. Let each idea that you review that  day give you the gift which He has laid in it for you to have of Him.
W1:R4.11 Each hour of the  day bring to your mind the thought with which the day began and spend
W1:R4.11 Each hour of the day bring to your mind the thought with which the  day began and spend a quiet moment with it. Then repeat the two ideas
W1:R4.11  quiet moment with it. Then repeat the two ideas you practice for the  day unhurriedly, with time enough to see the gifts which they contain
W1:R4.12 Each  day of practicing, as we review, we close as we began, repeating
W1:R4.12  we close as we began, repeating first the thought that made the  day a special time of blessing and of happiness for us and through
W1:R4.12  keeping of His Word. And as you give your mind to the ideas for the  day again before you sleep, His gratitude surrounds you in the peace
W1:151.13  with but a single, slow repeating of the thought with which the  day begins. And then we watch our thoughts, appealing silently to Him
W1:152.13 The power of decision is my own. This  day I will accept myself as what my Father's Will created me to be.
W1:152.15 In patience wait for Him throughout the  day and hourly invite Him with the words with which the day began,
W1:152.15  the day and hourly invite Him with the words with which the  day began, concluding it with this same invitation to your Self.
W1:153.14 So is the story ended. Let this  day bring the last chapter closer to the world that everyone may
W1:153.15  in a form we will maintain for quite a while. We will begin each  day by giving our attention to the daily thought as long as possible.
W1:153.15  Five minutes now becomes the least we give to preparation for a  day in which salvation is the only goal we have. Ten would be better;
W1:153.19  defenselessness. We clothe ourselves in it as we prepare to meet the  day. We rise up strong in Christ and let our weakness disappear as we
W1:153.19  us. We will remind ourselves that He remains beside us through the  day and never leaves our weakness unsupported by His strength.
W1:155.14 And now He asks but that you think of Him a while each  day that He may speak to you and tell you of His Love, reminding you
W1:156.8 “Who walks with me?” This question should be asked a thousand times a  day, till certainty has ended doubting and established peace. Today
W1:157.1 This is a  day of silence and of trust. It is a special time of promise in your
W1:157.1  has set apart to shine upon and cast a timeless light upon this  day when echoes of eternity are heard. This day is holy, for it
W1:157.1  timeless light upon this day when echoes of eternity are heard. This  day is holy, for it ushers in a new experience, a different kind of
W1:157.4  for now is what He wills. And having joined your will with His this  day, what you are asking must be given you. Nothing is needed but
W1:157.5 From this  day forth, your ministry takes on a genuine devotion and a glow that
W1:157.6  purpose being now to bring the vision of what you experience this  day to light the world. We cannot give experience like this directly.
W1:157.8  this journey which you make and start today with the experience this  day holds out to you to be your own.
W1:162.3  own—arising with them in his mind, recalling them throughout the  day, at night bringing them with him as he goes to sleep. His dreams
W1:164.3  your seeming sins forgot and all your sorrows unremembered. On this  day is grief laid by, for sights and sounds which come from nearer
W1:164.5 This is the  day when vain imaginings part like a curtain to reveal what lies
W1:164.6 Brothers, this  day is sacred to the world. Your vision, given you from far beyond
W1:164.9  you surely want—you can exchange all suffering for joy this very  day. Practice in earnest, and the gift is yours. Would God deceive
W1:168.5 It is a new and holy  day today, for we receive what has been given us. Our faith lies in
W1:169.14  prayer, yet in the world, what could be more than what we ask this  day of Him Who gives the grace we ask as it was given Him?
W1:R5.14 With this we start each  day of our review. With this we start and end each period of practice
W1:R5.14  once again with these same words upon our lips to greet another  day. No thought that we review but we surround with it and use the
W1:R5.14  before our minds and keep it clear in our remembrance throughout the  day. And thus when we have finished this review, we will have
W1:I2.3  So we now attempt to go past all defenses for a little while each  day. No more than this is asked because no more than this is needed.
W1:181.8 And we will also use these thoughts to keep us safe throughout the  day. We do not seek for long range goals. As each obstruction seems
W1:184.10 Thus what you need are intervals each  day in which the learning of the world becomes a transitory phase—a
W1:186.1 Here is the statement that will one  day take all arrogance away from every mind. Here is the thought of

Tx:11.74  judged yourself unworthy and have condemned yourself to death. The  death penalty is the ego's ultimate goal, for it fully believes that
Tx:11.74  goal, for it fully believes that you are a criminal, as deserving of  death as God knows you are deserving of life. The death penalty never
Tx:11.74  as deserving of death as God knows you are deserving of life. The  death penalty never leaves the ego's mind, for that is what it always
Tx:11.74  expression of its feeling for you, it lets you live but to await  death. It will torment you while you live, but its hatred is not
Tx:11.75  you that you have been treacherous to God and therefore deserve  death. You will think that death comes from God and not from the
Tx:11.75  to God and therefore deserve death. You will think that  death comes from God and not from the ego because, by confusing
Tx:11.75  by confusing yourself with the ego, you believe that you want  death. And from what you want, God does not save you.
Tx:11.76 When you are tempted to yield to the desire for  death, remember that I did not die. You will realize that this is
Tx:11.76  is true when you look within and see me. Would I have overcome  death for myself alone? And would eternal life have been given me of
Tx:11.76  to you? When you learn to make me manifest, you will never see  death. For you will have looked upon the deathless in yourself, and
Tx:11.86  punishment, and all the laws which seem to govern it are the laws of  death. Children are born into it through pain and in pain. Their

Tx:12.25  fact that you were wrong? While it could perhaps be argued that  death suggests there was life, no one would claim that it proves
Tx:12.25  would claim that it proves there is life. Even the past life which  death might indicate could only have been futile if it must come to
Tx:12.25  even though you know not Heaven, might it not be more desirable than  death? You have been as selective in your questioning as in your
Tx:12.61  the crumbling assault of time. Nothing you made but has the mark of  death upon it. Hold it not dear, for it is old and tired and ready to
Tx:13.35 Forgetfulness and sleep and even  death become the ego's best advice for how to deal with the perceived
Tx:13.47  pointing as clearly to Heaven as the ego points to darkness and to  death. We have followed much of the ego's logic and have seen its
Tx:13.52  to live, which has been blocked by the capricious and unholy whim of  death and murder that your Father shared not with you. You have set
Tx:14.5  forever changeless. Accept, then, the immutable. Leave the world of  death behind, and return quietly to Heaven. There is nothing of

Tx:15.3  is an ally of time, but not a friend. For it is as mistrustful of  death as it is of life, and what it wants for you it cannot tolerate.
Tx:15.3  And out of its unwillingness for you to find peace even in the  death it wants for you, it offers you immortality in hell. It speaks
Tx:15.4  is directed to. Hell is its goal, for although the ego aims at  death and dissolution as an end, it does not believe it. The goal
Tx:15.4  and dissolution as an end, it does not believe it. The goal of  death, which it craves for you, leaves it unsatisfied. No one who
Tx:15.4  No one who follows the ego's teaching is without the fear of  death. Yet if death were thought of merely as an end to pain, would
Tx:15.4  who follows the ego's teaching is without the fear of death. Yet if  death were thought of merely as an end to pain, would it be feared?
Tx:15.5  together so that they seem to be reconciled. The ego teaches thus:  Death is the end as far as hope of Heaven goes. Yet because you and
Tx:15.5  cannot be separated, and because it cannot conceive of its own  death, it will pursue you still because guilt is eternal. Such is the
Tx:16.33  This is the choice they see. And love to them is only an escape from  death. They seek it desperately but not in the peace in which it
Tx:16.33  would gladly come quietly to them. And when they find the fear of  death is still upon them, the love relationship loses the illusion
Tx:16.52  theme which is acted out in the special relationship. Through the  death of your self, you think you can attack another self and
Tx:16.53  and on his body raise another self which takes its power from his  death. Over and over and over this ritual is enacted. And it is
Tx:16.53  the ritual of completion cannot complete, and life arises not from  death, nor Heaven from hell.
Tx:16.54  it is—a senseless ritual in which strength is extracted from the  death of God and invested in His killer as the sign that form has
Tx:16.55 No rituals that you have set up in which the dance of  death delights you can bring death to the eternal. Nor can your
Tx:16.55  you have set up in which the dance of death delights you can bring  death to the eternal. Nor can your chosen substitute for the
Tx:16.67  beauty and holiness of guilt. Only the wholly insane could look on  death and suffering, sickness and despair and see it thus. What guilt
Tx:17.35  for these aspects enclose the whole, complete in every aspect.  Death lies in this glittering gift. Let not your gaze dwell on the
Tx:17.36  but you do need defense against your own acceptance of the gift of  death. When you who are truth accept an idea so dangerous to truth,
Tx:17.39  other is framed for perfect clarity. The picture of darkness and of  death grows less convincing as you search it out amid its wrappings.
Tx:18.4  which brought truth to illusion, infinity to time, and life to  death, was all you ever made. Your whole world rests upon it.
Tx:18.55  hate and where you have sown the seeds of vengeance, violence, and  death. This thing you made to serve your guilt stands between you and
Tx:19.19  the whole idea of sin, it is impossible. For the wages of sin is  death, and how can the immortal die?
Tx:19.23  corrupt his Father and changed His Mind completely. Mourn, then, the  death of God, Whom sin has killed! And this would be the ego's wish,
Tx:19.50  evil and of sin which they can find, losing none of them on pain of  death and laying them respectfully before their lord and master.
Tx:19.56  your sin, and so I had to die instead of you. To the ego sin means  death, and so Atonement is achieved through murder. Salvation is
Tx:19.57  of salvation, but not its Source. No one can die for anyone, and  death does not atone for sin. Yet you can live to show it is not
Tx:19.61  that in it lies salvation? Do you not see that this is the belief in  death? Here is the focus of the perception of Atonement as murder.
Tx:19.66  Where can guilt be, when the belief in sin is gone? And where is  death, when its great advocate is heard no more?
Tx:19.72  body's pleasure is happiness. Yet to itself it whispers, “It is  death.”
Tx:19.75  as himself, without which he would die, and yet within which is his  death equally inevitable.
Tx:19.76  ego's disciples to realize that they have dedicated themselves to  death. Freedom is offered them, but they have not accepted it, and
Tx:19.76  along the way and finding what it seeks. So does the ego find the  death it seeks, returning it to you.
Tx:19.77  it is given to release and be released from the dedication to  death. For it was offered you, and you accepted. Yet you must learn
Tx:19.77  which peace must flow across. No one can die unless he chooses  death. What seems to be the fear of death is really its
Tx:19.77  one can die unless he chooses death. What seems to be the fear of  death is really its attraction. Guilt, too, is feared and fearful.
Tx:19.77  on those who are attracted to it and seek it out. And so it is with  death. Made by the ego, its dark shadow falls across all living
Tx:19.78  in the slow procession which honors their grim master, lord of  death? Touch any one of them with the gentle hands of forgiveness and
Tx:19.78  the black robe he was wearing to his funeral and hear him laugh at  death. The sentence sin would lay upon him he can escape through your
Tx:19.79  God. What is impossible to you who chose His Will as yours? What is  death to you? Your dedication is not to death nor to its master.
Tx:19.79  His Will as yours? What is death to you? Your dedication is not to  death nor to its master. When you accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose
Tx:19.79  the Holy Spirit's purpose in place of the ego's, you renounced  death, exchanging it for life. We know that an idea leaves not its
Tx:19.79  it for life. We know that an idea leaves not its source. And  death is the result of the thought we call the ego as surely as life
Tx:19.80 From the ego came sin and guilt and  death, in opposition to life and innocence and to the Will of God
Tx:19.80  of Heaven? One thing is sure—God, Who created neither sin nor  death, wills not that you be bound by them. He knows of neither sin
Tx:19.81  black-draped body they would bury? A body which they dedicated to  death, a symbol of corruption, a sacrifice to sin, offered to sin to
Tx:19.81  of separation—all are part of your unrecognized dedication to  death. The glitter of guilt you laid upon the body would kill it. For
Tx:19.83  but serve your purpose. As you look upon it, so will it seem to be.  Death, were it true, would be the final and complete disruption of
Tx:19.84 Those who fear  death see not how often and how loudly they call to it and bid it
Tx:19.84  they call to it and bid it come to save them from communication. For  death is seen as safety, the great dark savior from the light of
Tx:19.84  the silencer of the Voice that speaks for God. Yet the retreat to  death is not the end of conflict. Only God's Answer is its end. The
Tx:19.84  God's Answer is its end. The obstacle of your seeming love for  death that peace must flow across seems to be very great. For in it
Tx:19.85  to kill. My brothers, children of our Father, this is a dream of  death. There is no funeral, no dark altars, no grim commandments nor
Tx:19.85  it to do. In its exaltation you commanded it to die, for only  death could conquer life. And what but insanity could look upon the
Tx:19.86 The fear of  death will go as its appeal is yielded to love's real attraction.
Tx:19.86  it is yours. For it is deathless, and within it lies the end of  death.
Tx:19.88 —the ego has perceived it as a symbol of fear, a sign of sin and  death. Remember then that neither sign nor symbol should be confused
Tx:19.89  upon it, judging it for me. Let me not see it as a sign of sin and  death nor use it for destruction. Teach me how not to make of it an
Tx:19.90 What would you see without the fear of  death? What would you feel and think if death held no attraction for

Tx:19.91  of blood, fades in the blazing light beyond it when the fear of  death is gone.
Tx:19.92 This is the darkest veil, upheld by the belief in  death and protected by its attraction. The dedication to death and to
Tx:19.92  belief in death and protected by its attraction. The dedication to  death and to its sovereignty is but the solemn vow, the promise made
Tx:19.93 See how the belief in  death would seem to “save” you. For if this is gone, what can you
Tx:19.93  this is gone, what can you fear but life? It is the attraction of  death that makes life seem to be ugly, cruel, and tyrannical. You are
Tx:19.93  seem to be ugly, cruel, and tyrannical. You are no more afraid of  death than of the ego. These are your chosen friends. For in your
Tx:19.94  which you love as you could never love the body. And the appeal of  death is lost forever as love's attraction stirs and calls to you.
Tx:19.95  of sin, the delicate appeal of guilt, the “holy” waxen image of  death, and the fear of vengeance of the ego you swore in blood not to
Tx:19.96  to forget again, no stab of fear, nor the cold sweat of seeming  death can stand against your will. For what attracts you from beyond
Tx:19.106  in it that we may rise as one in resurrection and not separate in  death. Behold the gift of freedom that I gave the Holy Spirit for
Tx:19.107  complete release from sin here in the garden of seeming agony and  death. So will we prepare together the way unto the resurrection of
Tx:19.107  rise again to glad remembrance of his Father, Who knows no sin, no  death, but only life eternal.
Tx:20.2  of the truth and its expression. This week we celebrate life, not  death. And we honor the perfect purity of the Son of God and not his
Tx:20.3 We cannot be united in crucifixion and in  death. Nor can the resurrection be complete till your forgiveness
Tx:20.11  no thorns nor nails to crucify the Son of God and crown him king of  death. Your chosen home is on the other side, beyond the veil. It has
Tx:20.19  through constant dangers, alone and frightened, hoping at most that  death will wait a little longer before it overtakes you and you
Tx:20.19  yourself. A murderer is frightened, and those who kill fear  death. All these are but the fearful thoughts of those who would
Tx:20.28  none; nor to its results as this world sees them—sickness and  death and misery and pain. These things have not occurred because the
Tx:20.43  by remembering them, the laws that held you prisoner to pain and  death must be forgotten. This is no gift your brother's body offers
Tx:20.55  keeping it prisoner in a tiny spot of space and time, beholden unto  death and given but an instant in which to sigh and grieve and die in
Tx:20.73  is but a toy, a whim, the senseless means to play the idle game of  death in your imagination. But vision sets all things right, bringing
Tx:20.77  loveliness and peace; when you have looked on scenes of violence and  death and watched them change to quiet views of gardens under open
Tx:21.85  And so he dies because of what he learned. He goes from life to  death, the final proof he valued the inconstant more than constancy.
Tx:22.18 Illusions carry only guilt and suffering, sickness and  death to their believers. The form in which they are accepted is
Tx:22.22  not decide alone nor differently. Either you give each other life or  death; either you are each other's savior or his judge, offering him
Tx:23.8  And if it were, is this a victory that you would want? The  death of God, if it were possible, would be your death. Is this a
Tx:23.8  would want? The death of God, if it were possible, would be your  death. Is this a victory? The ego always marches to defeat
Tx:23.22  of sin, is that each one must sin and therefore deserves attack and  death. This principle, closely related to the first, is the demand
Tx:23.29  you may have that which belongs to you. His treachery demands his  death that you may live. And you attack only in self defense.
Tx:23.30 But what is it you want that needs his  death? Can you be sure your murderous attack is justified unless you
Tx:23.33  the savior from salvation. How lovely do the laws of fear make  death appear! Give thanks unto the hero on love's throne, who saved
Tx:23.33  the hero on love's throne, who saved the Son of God for fear and  death!
Tx:23.35 How can some forms of murder not mean  death? Can an attack in any form be love? What form of
Tx:23.37  life is illusion. At best, it seems like life; at worst, like  death. Yet both are judgments on what is not life, equal in their
Tx:23.41  murder and escapes the guilt the thought entails. If the intent is  death, what matter the form it takes?
Tx:23.42 Is  death in any form, however lovely and charitable it may seem to be, a
Tx:23.46  guns are stilled an instant and the fear that haunts the place of  death is not apparent, that it will not return. There is no safety
Tx:23.47 The fear of God is fear of life and not of  death. Yet He remains the only place of safety. In Him is no attack,
Tx:23.49  the Father and the Son are murderers or neither is. Life makes not  death, creating like itself.
Tx:24.23  receiver. Not one glance from eyes it veils but looks on sight of  death. Not one believer in its potency but seeks for bargains and for
Tx:24.25  despair you travel now, yet it is but illusion of despair. The  death of specialness is not your death but your awaking into life
Tx:24.25  is but illusion of despair. The death of specialness is not your  death but your awaking into life eternal. You but emerge from an
Tx:24.29  ever be the same while specialness stands like a flaming sword of  death between them and makes them “enemies.”
Tx:24.30  the same, for neither one wills specialness. How could they will the  death of love itself? Yet they are powerless to make attack upon
Tx:24.30  to be brought to them and left behind. Salvation challenges not even  death. And God Himself, Who knows that death is not your will, must
Tx:24.30  Salvation challenges not even death. And God Himself, Who knows that  death is not your will, must say, “Thy will be done” because you
Tx:24.32  they sleep and call them to come forth and waken from their dream of  death. Yet they hear nothing. They are lost in dreams of specialness.
Tx:24.32  their dream reality. Curse God and die, but not by Him Who made not  death, but only in the dream. Open your eyes a little; see the savior
Tx:24.34  to it to kill it first. And such is guilt's attraction. Here is  death enthroned as savior; crucifixion is now redemption, and
Tx:24.43  delight in but to kill? What does it seek for but the sight of  death? Where does it lead but to destruction? Yet think not that it
Tx:24.46  Heaven that their ears may hear no more the sound of battle and of  death. He reaches through them, holding out His hand that everyone
Tx:24.46  specialness He offers you that you may save all living things from  death, receiving from each one the gift of life that your forgiveness
Tx:24.52  what is not its purpose and will not escape its laws of violence and  death. Yet it is given you to be beyond its laws in all respects,
Tx:24.53  Let not his specialness obscure the truth in him, for not one law of  death you bind him to will you escape. And not one sin you see in
Tx:24.65  of loveliness around your hate, and you condemn it to decay and  death. And if you see this purpose in your brother's, such is your
Tx:25.1  very center of your life. What gives you life cannot be housed in  death. No more can you. Christ is within a frame of holiness whose
Tx:25.5  you of yourself—your sinfulness, your evil, and above all, your  death. And would you not despise the one who tells you this and seek
Tx:25.5  And would you not despise the one who tells you this and seek his  death instead? The message and the messenger are one. And you must
Tx:25.18  not this face was ever darkened because you saw it in a frame of  death. God kept it safe that you might look on it and see the
Tx:25.19  seeing is the vision shared that looks on Christ instead of seeing  death.
Tx:25.40  you, your savior offers you salvation. Condemned by you, he offers  death to you. In everyone you see but the reflection of what you
Tx:25.50  with glitter and with guile. Yet each one knows the cost of sin is  death. And so it is. For sin is a request for death, a wish to
Tx:25.50  the cost of sin is death. And so it is. For sin is a request for  death, a wish to make this world's foundation sure as love,
Tx:25.51 It cannot be the “sinner's” wish for  death is just as strong as is God's Will for life. Nor can the basis
Tx:25.54  that would lead the Son of God to sanity and joy. Nothing attests to  death and cruelty, to separation, and to differences. For here is
Tx:25.62  you must lose to madness because your aims can not be reconciled.  Death demands life, but life is not maintained at any cost. No one
Tx:25.65  of sin demand a victim. Who it may be makes little difference. But  death must be the cost and must be paid. This is not justice but
Tx:25.65  could justice be defined without insanity where love means hate and  death is seen as victory and triumph over eternity and timelessness
Tx:25.73  He would not allow His Son be judged by those who seek his  death and could not see his worth at all. What honest witnesses could
Tx:26.6  innocence with his and die each time you see in him a sin deserving  death.
Tx:26.7  a sacrifice of life and make your eyes and ears bear witness to the  death of God and of His holy Son, think not that you have power to
Tx:26.8  by time, and far beyond the reach of any sacrifice of life or  death. For neither did he make, and only one was given him by One Who
Tx:26.39  to take its place. And now you are a part of resurrection, not of  death. No past illusions have the power to keep you in a place of
Tx:26.39  of death. No past illusions have the power to keep you in a place of  death, a vault God's Son entered an instant, to be instantly restored
Tx:26.41  now. The real world is the second part of the hallucination time and  death are real and have existence which can be perceived. This
Tx:26.42  a gap at all. Such is each life—a seeming interval from birth to  death and on to life again, a repetition of an instant gone by long
Tx:26.44  in sin, in power of attack, in hurt and harm, in sacrifice and  death has come to you. For no one can make one illusion real and
Tx:26.53  to rule. Perhaps you do not see the role forgiveness plays in ending  death and all beliefs that rise from mists of guilt.
Tx:26.56  sigh that speaks for Heaven as a preference to this world which  death and desolation seem to rule. In joyous answer will creation
Tx:26.63  until he chooses not to die again. In every wish to hurt, he chooses  death instead of what his Father wills for him. Yet every instant
Tx:26.64  been given to save the Son of God from crucifixion and from hell and  death, all glory be forever. For you have power to save the Son of
Tx:26.66  fulfilled. Let us unite in bringing blessing to the world of sin and  death. For what can save each one of us can save us all. There is no
Tx:26.76  freedom in a prisoner's form? Why should deliverance be disguised as  death? Delay is senseless, and the “reasoning” which would maintain
Tx:26.79  be all white and sparkling in the summer sun. What was a place of  death has now become a living temple in a world of light. Because of
Tx:27.2  yourself a living symbol of his guilt, for you will not escape the  death you made for him. But in his innocence, you find your own.
Tx:27.3  eyes that he may see his sins are writ in Heaven in your blood and  death and go before him, closing off the gate and damning him to
Tx:27.4  are merciless to everyone, and in contagion do they seek to kill.  Death seems an easy price if they can say, “Behold me, brother; at
Tx:27.4  at your hand I die.” For sickness is the witness to his guilt, and  death would prove his errors must be sins.
Tx:27.5 Sickness is but a “little”  death; a form of vengeance not yet total. Yet it speaks with
Tx:27.7 It is not will for life, but wish for  death that is the motivation for this world. Its only purpose is to
Tx:27.7  life, how easily destroyed is what you love. Depression speaks of  death and vanity of real concern with anything at all. The strongest
Tx:27.8  of pleasure is their righteous payment for their little lives? Their  death will pay the price for all of them if they enjoy their benefits
Tx:27.9  are not sins, but witnesses unto the strange belief that sin and  death are real, and innocence and sin will end alike within the
Tx:27.11  Here its peace can come and perfect healing take the place of  death. The body can become a sign of life, a promise of redemption,
Tx:27.11  immortality to those grown sick of breathing in the fetid scent of  death. Let it have healing as its purpose. Then will it send forth
Tx:27.18  things the world attests can never be undone. And hopelessness and  death must disappear before the ancient clarion call of life. This
Tx:27.18  life. This call has power far beyond the weak and miserable cry of  death and guilt. The ancient calling of the Father to His Son, and of
Tx:27.18  last trumpet that the world will ever hear. Brother, there is no  death. And this you learn when you but wish to show your brother that
Tx:27.55  foremost makes no difference. Sin's witnesses hear but the call of  death.
Tx:27.57  He love whatever you hold dear. And for each witness to the body's  death He sends a witness to your life in Him Who knows no death. Each

T1:7.1  of not being able to do as you would desire to do, live as you would  desire to live, achieve what you would choose to achieve. The true
T1:7.1  has been unable to bring you the satisfaction and the peace you  desire.
T1:10.2  in a way that peace does not. It will seem so human that a wave of  desire to be fully human will wash over you. You will think that this

T2:1.4  within this Course regarding desire, you may still fear your  desire. Despite many exhortations that your purpose here is to be who

T2:3.2 There would be no need for form if there had been no  desire for expression. Life is the desire to express outwardly what
T2:3.2  for form if there had been no desire for expression. Life is the  desire to express outwardly what exists within. What I refer to so

T2:7.10 Here is an idea not heretofore given much attention, the idea of the  desire for change. Certainly there will continue to be things within

T2:7.11  truth in a very concrete way. For to go out into the world with the  desire to give, either expecting to receive in certain measure or to
T2:7.13  the early teachings of A Course of Love, teachings concerning your  desire to be good and to do good. This is not about doing good works.
T2:7.17  and feelings since taking this Course. You have done so out of a  desire to be truthful, a desire to not express thoughts and feelings
T2:7.17  this Course. You have done so out of a desire to be truthful, a  desire to not express thoughts and feelings unworthy of your real
T2:7.17  you would judge as negative or bad. Or you may have, in your  desire not to judge others, kept yourself from speaking up in
T2:9.1 I ask you now to remember a time when you felt from another the  desire to help or to meet your needs. Do not think that this desire
T2:9.1  the desire to help or to meet your needs. Do not think that this  desire is not present in all relationships. It is only the ego that

T2:9.1  It is only the ego that stands between desire and the meeting of  desire, needs and the meeting of needs.
T2:9.5  best seen in the contrast implied by the intent to hang on. The  desire to hang on to anything assumes that what you have is in need
T2:9.11  or self-satisfied, or, in other words, feel your needs are met, the  desire to hang on to what you have arises. This is true of knowledge,
T2:9.12 As soon as the  desire to hang on arises, both learning and unlearning cease to
T2:9.12  to hang on arises, both learning and unlearning cease to occur. The  desire to maintain a state you believe you have achieved and have
T2:9.14  unity where creation is continuous and ongoing. You should have no  desire to reach such a state and the awareness that you are in such a
T2:10.16 Again your  desire for a static state would make you rather listen to your ego as
T3:2.5  you believed you chose to separate from God out of defiance and a  desire to be one with God no longer. This could not be further from
T3:2.11  abandoned you, but you who abandoned your Self and God. Give up your  desire to think that if you did such a thing there was a reason for

T3:6.1 Can you give up your desire for reward? To give up your  desire for reward is to give up a childish desire that has become
T3:6.1  reward? To give up your desire for reward is to give up a childish  desire that has become like unto a plague among you. While many of
T3:6.1  you. While many of you see it not, everything you do is based upon  desire for reward. This is your desire to be given to in return for
T3:6.1  not, everything you do is based upon desire for reward. This is your  desire to be given to in return for what you give. This stems from
T3:6.1  of yourself as less than what your parents are. While you may still  desire recognition and affirmation from them, this is not the same as
T3:6.1  think is in charge of rewarding you, the attitude that causes you to  desire reward is what must be done without.
T3:6.6  and made you ready for this choice. Choose now to leave your  desire for reward, as well as all of your reasons for bitterness, and
T3:10.14  if you will, of the new thought system, for you will have no  desire to communicate with anything less.
T3:10.15  the common language of the mind and heart joined in unity. You will  desire more than anything for everyone you encounter to share this
T3:13.1  by any doubt you might have had concerning whether or not you would  desire the new goal toward which we work.
T3:14.1  as thought alone will not bring about the changes you would so  desire to have come about within your physical experience. You may
T3:14.5  but those who will be visited by great change are but those who  desire it. Yet even those who desire great change will find these

T3:20.14 I thank you for your strong  desire to be saviors of the world and to end her suffering. I thank
T3:20.14  to end her suffering. I thank you for your compassion and for your  desire to be of service to the world. But I call to you from peace
T3:21.11  to doubt circumstances of their birth are often consumed with a  desire to discover these unknown circumstances. For your birth, your
T3:22.13 Observation, both of yourself and of what you  desire, is an act that takes place in the here and now that is and
T3:22.14 Observation of what you  desire, what we have referred to as “closed eyes” observation, can be
T3:22.14  your effort, create the desired outcome. Observation of what you  desire is observation of what is, for your desire is of God and what
T3:22.14  Observation of what you desire is observation of what is, for your  desire is of God and what you desire now, contrary to what you would
T3:22.14  is observation of what is, for your desire is of God and what you  desire now, contrary to what you would have desired in the early
T3:22.14  in the early stages of this Course, is the Will of God. What you  desire now is the Will of God because it is your true desire, your
T3:22.14  God. What you desire now is the Will of God because it is your true  desire, your will and God's joined as one.
T3:22.15  also as a product of distrust. It was a tension that existed between  desire and accomplishment, the tension that told you that you might
T3:22.15  the tension that told you that you might be able to achieve what you  desire but that you also might not. Realize that this game of chance
T4:1.22  the Holy Spirit. This limit acted upon you as a catalyst to create  desire for the new. It is what has caused your growing impatience
T4:1.22  technology but seemed to offer. It is what has caused your growing  desire for meaning and purpose. It is what has caused you to finally
T4:2.11  a way of calling all others to know what they can achieve. One may  desire to best a sporting record and another to follow the first man
T4:2.11  space and the one who desires to best a sporting record may feel no  desire to follow the first man into space and vice versa, and yet,
T4:2.11  the door for others and this is known to you. Even those who did not  desire to fly in a plane when this feat was first accomplished have
T4:2.12  goal was not to be better than anyone but themselves. Surely many  desire to be “the best” as a means to glorify the ego, but few of
T4:4.18  of expressing your Self in form because this goal but reflected the  desire for a temporary experience. The temporary experience has been
T4:6.1  both historically and currently. What you envision, imagine,  desire, hold as being possible, is possible, because you make it so.
T4:6.4  and direct sharing, the probable future you imagine, envision,  desire, will be what you create. This is the power of the devotion of

T4:7.1  judgment or it will be false envisioning, false imagining, false  desire. This simply means false, or not consistent with the truth. It
T4:7.4  will be revealed to them through what they can envision, imagine and  desire without judgment. It will not take the effort of their bodies,
T4:7.4  joined in unity, a consciousness able to envision, imagine and  desire without judgment and without fear.
T4:8.13  it would add to His being? What purpose is behind your own  desire to do thus?
T4:8.14 It was only the ego that made this  desire seem to be for anything other than the purpose of expansion
T4:8.16  to learn that it could master. Yet all that this was, was a  desire to be done with learning, which is a true desire consistent
T4:8.16  this was, was a desire to be done with learning, which is a true  desire consistent with your true nature and your purpose here. To
T4:9.4  is the time to leave behind study for imagining, envisioning, and  desire. Now is the time to move out of the time of becoming who you
T4:12.13  only doubt that it can be continual but with doubt that you would  desire it to be? These questions relate to our earlier discussion of
T4:12.34  to our responses. Will respond to what we envision, imagine and  desire. Creation of the new could not begin without you. Your
D:1.21  that could not be taught but only accessed through your longing and  desire.
D:2.18  these systems are based upon misperceptions or illusion. Your  desire to cling to systems that are not foolproof is insane, for
D:2.19 All systems have been based upon your  desire to understand the world around you rather than the world
D:2.20 The seeming difficulty with this new beginning stems from your  desire to learn anew. You would say, “If the justice system doesn't

D:4.26  else. It is up to you to accept that your release is possible, to  desire it without fear, to call it into being.
D:5.6  to show—to teach—that joining is the way. Think of the word  desire and its association with sex. To desire someone is to desire
D:5.6  the way. Think of the word desire and its association with sex. To  desire someone is to desire joining. This desire was created to
D:5.6  word desire and its association with sex. To desire someone is to  desire joining. This desire was created to remind you—to point the

D:5.6  desire was created to remind you—to point the way—to your true  desire for your true identity as a being joined in oneness. This
D:5.7  you did not lose yourself and experience completion, you would not  desire it. Sex, experienced for this pleasure and completion,
D:5.7  non-attachment, still would produce the desired effect of creating  desire for oneness if you truly saw and understood the body and its
D:5.13  be to create a tome of information, and this is not needed now. The  desire for such is a desire to think through once again the meaning
D:5.13  of information, and this is not needed now. The desire for such is a  desire to think through once again the meaning of everything and to
D:6.13  facts.” I mean no disrespect to scientists and bless them for their  desire to find the “truth,” as you should bless them for the
D:6.23  through sexual intercourse—a design given to lead the way to  desire for oneness and completion.
D:7.15 The observation, envisioning, and  desire you have been practicing in order to be ready to accept
D:7.17  Desire is an acknowledgment of the uniqueness of each Self, and is a
D:7.17  each Self, and is a demonstration of means and end being the same.  Desire keeps you focused on your own path and leaves you
D:7.17  own path and leaves you nonjudgmental of the paths of others. Yet  desire, like observation and vision, is still related to the self of
D:7.18 Revelation is of God. Observation, vision, and  desire are steps leading you beyond what the individual, separated
D:8.11  dot of the separated self and into the circle of unity where all you  desire is already accomplished in the fullness and wholeness of the
D:9.1  why you do not see what is and are the reason that you continue to  desire to be provided with set answers.
D:9.3 You continue to think that your  desire to know who you are calls you to think about who you are and
D:9.3  a certainty about who you are. You have been led to see that this  desire has always been with you, and you have thought it is the very
D:9.3  desire has always been with you, and you have thought it is the very  desire that, once defined and acted upon, would fulfill you, allow
D:9.4 But you have thought about this  desire to know who you are in one way or another all of your life
D:11.5  that you believe you are still on your own, and that you still  desire to be, for only here, in this area of your individuality, do
D:11.5  do you believe you make your contributions to the world. Your  desire to make a contribution—to help to make new the world that
D:11.5  of in the beginning of this Dialogue? What was spoken of as your  desire to prepare?
D:11.6 Let me ask you a question. Do you think  desire will still be with you when you have achieved what you have
D:11.6  you have desired? Is it not possible to conceive of a time in which  desire will no longer serve you, just as learning now no longer
D:11.6  that state, fully accept that your contribution is being made, will  desire still be with you?
D:11.9  and the elevation of the self of form? How might this relate to your  desire to make a contribution and answer your calling? How does this
D:11.9  a contribution and answer your calling? How does this relate to your  desire to know what to do?
D:11.10  you, at the heart or center of your Self, as do all answers. Your  desire to make of me a teacher is the same as your desire to make
D:11.10  all answers. Your desire to make of me a teacher is the same as your  desire to make your thoughts into answers that will provide you with
D:11.15  through the elevated Self of form. Why would you retain your  desire to make an individual contribution, when you can now make a
D:13.1  than in being adamant in the proclamation of what you know. But this  desire to proclaim what you know will grow in you, and while you will
D:15.19  This is, as with all maintenance, a temporary measure, but one you  desire to have discussed, just as we discussed parameters to your
D:17.3  secret of succession is simple. It is but a matter of wholehearted  desire. Do you wholeheartedly desire to follow me to your true
D:17.3  It is but a matter of wholehearted desire. Do you wholeheartedly  desire to follow me to your true inheritance? To come after me and be
D:17.3  be as I was? To be the inheritor of the gifts that are ours? Do you  desire this? Are you willing to claim it? Are you willing to claim it

D:17.5 Little can be had without desire.  Desire, unlike want, asks for a response rather than a provision.
D:17.5  Desire, unlike want, asks for a response rather than a provision.  Desire is a longing for, a stretching out for. Imagine yourself at
D:17.5  rather than toward the earth below. This is the stance of both  desire and fulfillment. Of longing and attainment. Of having asked
D:17.5  the embrace of homecoming, and what comes before the passing of  desire and the reverence that replaces it. It acknowledges a certain
D:17.5  it. It acknowledges a certain “taking over” of the spirit of  desire. Having “arrived,” the desire to “get there” has not been
D:17.5  certain “taking over” of the spirit of desire. Having “arrived,” the  desire to “get there” has not been satiated but only has grown into

D:17.12 That response is wholehearted  desire, which is the power that A Course of Love came to return to
D:17.12  to return to you. You were told within this Course that wholehearted  desire for union would return union to you and return you to your

D:17.12  of that accomplishment. But your desire has not left you. Your  desire is stronger than ever before.
D:17.13 What is different now is that your wholeheartedness, as well as your  desire, has moved beyond the pattern of thought.
D:17.14  of you earlier, for they are even more pertinent now. Do you think  desire will still be with you when you have achieved what you have
D:17.14  you have desired? Is it not possible to conceive of a time in which  desire will no longer serve you, just as learning now no longer
D:17.14  that state, fully accept that your contribution is being made, will  desire still be with you?
D:17.15  instead of to your thinking, that you feel both fulfillment and  desire. But my earlier questions seemed to indicate that once
D:17.15  questions seemed to indicate that once fulfillment was reached,  desire would no longer be with you. But your desire is still with
D:17.15  was reached, desire would no longer be with you. But your  desire is still with you. It is stronger than ever before.
D:17.17  Desire asks for a response. Earlier it was said that desire asks for
D:17.17 Desire asks for a response. Earlier it was said that  desire asks for a response while want asks for provision. What is the
D:17.18  appropriate response to want, but it is an inappropriate response to  desire. It is an assumption of needs unfulfilled. You now stand in
D:17.19  Desire asks for a response. From where is this response sought? You
D:17.19  the fullness of the well of your heart, the interrelationship of  desire and fulfillment. The interrelationship of desire and
D:17.19  of desire and fulfillment. The interrelationship of  desire and fulfillment is what occurs at the threshold. Beyond the
D:17.19  occurs at the threshold. Beyond the threshold is the state in which  desire has passed and been replaced by reverence. To revere is to
D:17.19  has been stated, is due nothing and no one but God. To move beyond  desire to reverence is to move into the state of communion with God,
D:17.21  to the site you have traveled so far to reach. You are here and  desire fills you, even while you know the glory of having arrived.
D:17.24  Desire calls here, louder and stronger than ever before, because of

D:17.26  mountain, fasting from want, becoming aware of desire, responding to  desire. This is the final stage of becoming. Herein lies the secret
D:Day1.9  akin to non-acceptance of the way that has been given to bring your  desire to fruition. The spacecraft could be seen as a response to
D:Day1.9  to fruition. The spacecraft could be seen as a response to your  desire. So too can I.
D:Day1.17 Your  desire to know me has grown as you have read these words and grown
D:Day1.27 You can only fast from wanting by realizing what it is you  desire. My forty days and forty nights on the mountain succeeded my
D:Day1.27  as my Self in the world. So too does it with you. You long for and  desire me because our story is the same. You are living my story as I
D:Day2.2  Self. But still, in unguarded moments, in moments in which you would  desire peace, memories of your life continue to play within your
D:Day2.4  what was always envisioned. This is the moment of fulfillment and  desire coming together, the time in which to realize “it was all
D:Day3.27  been told time and time again. I do not ask you to give up what you  desire, but to expect and accept a response to what you desire.
D:Day3.27  up what you desire, but to expect and accept a response to what you  desire. Remember that we are headed even beyond desire, and know that

D:Day3.51  is depression, a lowering of spirits and energy, a lack of  desire, a lack of activity, a sinking feeling of going under, of
D:Day4.13  this place. It is like being told that all of the treasure you might  desire is locked away behind a gate to which you have no key.
D:Day4.26  key to the treasure. Union is both access and the place to which you  desire access. As all that exists in truth, union is means and end.
D:Day4.29  can be purchased through your right-actions or even your longing and  desire. For this access is not a tool but a function of who you are.
D:Day4.36 We talked earlier of this as a time of fulfillment and  desire. We acknowledged that your desire is stronger than ever
D:Day4.36  this as a time of fulfillment and desire. We acknowledged that your  desire is stronger than ever before. Now is the time to focus on this
D:Day4.36  is stronger than ever before. Now is the time to focus on this  desire and fulfillment, to stretch this desire to its limits, all the
D:Day4.36  is the time to focus on this desire and fulfillment, to stretch this  desire to its limits, all the while realizing that its fulfillment
D:Day4.37 This is a longing that carries with it the  desire to go beyond thinking, the desire to go beyond words, the

D:Day4.37  the desire to go beyond thinking, the desire to go beyond words, the  desire to go beyond where your imagination is capable of taking you.

D:Day4.37  is capable of taking you. It is a desire for true discovery, a  desire to access the previously unknown.
D:Day4.38  where the portal of access will take you, you will not go. Thus your  desire needs to be greater than your fear. Love needs to reign. Love

D:5.22 So let today's  dialogue serve as a final call, a most emphatic call, to acceptance.
D:11.2 You might even consider this  Dialogue the written notes of my thoughts. In this one example can
D:11.3  I do, or of what occurs in unity. I am and I extend what I am. This  dialogue is that extension. God's idea of you extended and became you
D:11.4 In the opening page of this  Dialogue I said that you give and you receive from the well of
D:11.5  mind. Again, is this not what we spoke of in the beginning of this  Dialogue? What was spoken of as your desire to prepare?
D:11.13  in your heart. We are the sacred heart. As was said as we began this  Dialogue, we, together, are the well of spirit. We, together, are the
D:12.4 This work is called a  dialogue. A dialogue is most often thought of as a discourse between
D:12.4 This work is called a dialogue. A  dialogue is most often thought of as a discourse between two or more
D:12.4  and as such is associated with the spoken word. When you enter into  dialogue with another person, you listen, you hear, and you respond.
D:12.4  This is exactly what occurs here. You have “entered into” this  dialogue. While you think these words come to you through the written
D:12.8 We have spoken already of “entering into”  dialogue. When you enter into dialogue with another person you “hear”
D:12.8  have spoken already of “entering into” dialogue. When you enter into  dialogue with another person you “hear” what it is they have to say.
D:12.9  it to be the “thinking” of another that is shared with you in  dialogue, but the thoughts. Thus this distinction will suffice for
D:Day1.7  as you must accept your ascension to this mountain peak and this  dialogue that is occurring here. If you believe this mountain peak is
D:Day3.19  not feel this, and if you are among those few, do not skip past this  dialogue, but join in so that you understand, as do those for whom
D:Day3.19  but join in so that you understand, as do those for whom this  dialogue is meant, the power of this aspect of your brothers and
D:Day3.25  use would you have of learning if such were not the case? In our  dialogue, we have begun to use examples of what you did not learn in
D:Day3.36  To teach is to convey the known. To speak of a way is to invite  dialogue and a journey. This is what all master “teachers” taught,
D:Day4.1 While we will broaden the focus of today's  dialogue beyond that of money or abundance, we will still be
D:Day4.1  will be and as such are actually appropriate to this stage of our  dialogue. We can argue here before we go on. We face together here
D:Day4.5 As we discussed in yesterday's  dialogue, learning has not been a choice. Both as divine design and
D:Day4.48  with wholehearted desire, it will be done, and we will continue our  dialogue so that you know more of the difference you have chosen.
D:Day4.56  is the beginning. This is the choice that allows us to continue our  dialogue as one. To talk heart to heart. To have the kind of
D:Day6.16  by facilitating the acceptance of life as it is. This is why this  dialogue is occurring on the holy mountain without taking you away
D:Day6.17  wait for some convenient time. Quite the contrary. We are having our  dialogue on the holy mountain while you remain within your life for
D:Day6.22  done! Think not that I cannot arrange the ideal environment for our  dialogue. This is it!
D:Day6.26 Our  dialogue is not without purpose. You know this or you would not be
D:Day6.31  encouraged rather than discouraged that you are able to embrace this  dialogue and remain in your life. Realize that this is just what we
D:Day7.21  you may be experiencing. Thus these will be the subject of our next  dialogue.
D:Day8.1  again, a bit of disappointment or resignation as a result of our  dialogue concerning not removing yourself from life. Your whole
D:Day8.1  from life. Your whole purpose in pursuing the course of this  dialogue may have been, at least subconsciously, the idea of removing
D:Day10.13  of your personal self that was discussed at the beginning of our  dialogue. While you still hold an image of your personal self, you
D:Day10.15  I have removed myself from the role of teacher and entered this  dialogue with you as an equal, you still hold an image of me as
D:Day10.20  however, ask you to give up your identification of the voice of this  dialogue as that belonging to the man Jesus who lived two thousand
D:Day10.21  of the man Jesus. As you join with Christ-consciousness in this  dialogue, you will realize you have not lost your Self but will only
D:Day10.23  source, if you can hear it and feel it and think of it as a true  dialogue, a true sharing in relationship in which an exchange is
D:Day10.24  it is a key to your understanding of your Self and your power. This  dialogue, as one-sided as it may seem when presented in this way, is
D:Day10.24  you have forgotten. I am not having a monologue, but we are having a  dialogue in which you are a full participant. As much of what you
D:Day14.12  know. These words are only one means, which is why this is called a  dialogue. Realize now that this is but one voice of the many. You
D:Day14.12  that this is but one voice of the many. You have entered into the  dialogue with the many as well as the one. This dialogue is going on
D:Day14.12  entered into the dialogue with the many as well as the one. This  dialogue is going on all around you. Have you been listening to but
D:Day14.13 You must now own this  dialogue—own it as you own the power that is yours. This one voice
D:Day14.14 Entering the  dialogue is the means of sustaining the one voice within the many,
D:Day15.1  fully realize that sharing is necessary you will have entered the  dialogue. When you have fully surrendered to the fact that you can't
D:Day15.1  that you can't come to know on your own you will have entered the  dialogue. When you fully accept that the voice of the one can be
D:Day15.1  one can be heard in the voice of the many you will have entered the  dialogue. When you fully realize that you are in-formed by everything
D:Day15.1  by everything and everyone in creation, you will have entered the  dialogue.
D:Day15.11 Engaging in  dialogue with those who join you on the mountain top is necessary to
D:Day15.11  with those with whom you are engaged in this specific mountain top  dialogue. It is not an acceptable state for full-scale interaction
D:Day15.14 If so, enter the  dialogue with the purpose of your final preparations in mind. Bring

D:Day15.19  that disallows coming to know. You are in dialogue because in  dialogue, coming to know is a fluid exchange.
D:Day15.21 To be engaged in  dialogue with certain others is different than entering the dialogue,
D:Day15.21  in dialogue with certain others is different than entering the  dialogue, but entering the dialogue is not different than engaging in
D:Day15.21  others is different than entering the dialogue, but entering the  dialogue is not different than engaging in specific dialogues. This
D:Day15.21  than engaging in specific dialogues. This is so because entering the  dialogue is an all-encompassing state in which everything and
D:Day15.21  everything and everyone interacts with you through the exchange of  dialogue. While you are asked to promote wholeness and the
D:Day15.21  than you see those with whom you are engaged in this specific  dialogue for this specific purpose or practice.
D:Day15.22 However, knowing that you have entered the  dialogue does not mean that you will not have an awareness of those
D:Day15.25  the practical aspects has just been discussed—that of engaging in  dialogue with some and entering the dialogue with all. This is a
D:Day15.25  discussed—that of engaging in dialogue with some and entering the  dialogue with all. This is a demonstration of levels of consciousness
D:Day15.26 As you engage in  dialogue as the spacious Self and are made known, your purpose here
D:Day15.26  you thought it would be. You will be shown that you can enter the  dialogue with all and still focus, or place your attention, on areas
D:Day17.4  drive that kept you reading this Course, caused you to enter this  dialogue, kept you examining, kept you attempting to move beyond
D:Day20.1  so that you begin to rely more and more fully on the truth of this  dialogue.
D:Day20.4  you have within your minds and hearts and have been sharing in this  dialogue. The way of saying this perhaps is new, but the way of
D:Day21.9  upon yourself. This reliance upon yourself has been expressed as a  dialogue taking place within Christ-consciousness, the consciousness
D:Day21.9  union and relationship with all. You have now been told to own this  dialogue and to realize that its wisdom is your own. Are you
D:Day23.1  this. The Treatises gave you a way to apply this understanding. This  dialogue is meant to give you the means to carry what you have been

Tx:15.112  so long left unfulfilled, in the Great Awakening. Make this year  different by making it all the same. And let all your
Tx:16.1  Spirit, provided you let Him use it in His way. [His way is very  different.] He does not understand suffering and would have you teach
Tx:16.21  it was untrue. And He must have done so from the basis of a very  different thought system and one with nothing in common with yours.
Tx:16.63 Across the bridge, it is so  different! For a time the body is still seen but not exclusively, as
Tx:17.1  in reality, but they can do so in the mind that would have reality  different.
Tx:17.8  that you could not believe it is the meeting place of worlds so  different. Yet this little bridge is the strongest thing that touches
Tx:17.32  one remains, you will not let the others go. For this one is not  different. Retain this one, and you have retained the whole.
Tx:18.2  Substitution is clearly a process in which they are perceived as  different. One would unite; the other separate. Nothing can come
Tx:18.3  emotion. It seems to take many forms, and each seems to require a  different form of acting out for satisfaction. While this appears to
Tx:18.5 You have expressed surprise at hearing how very  different is reality from what you see. You do not realize the
Tx:18.19  time is spent in dreaming. Your sleeping and your waking dreams have  different forms, and that is all. Their content is the same. They
Tx:18.35  interfering with the lesson by believing that you make the learner  different. You did not make the learner, nor can you make him
Tx:18.35  different. You did not make the learner, nor can you make him  different. Would you first make a miracle yourself and then expect
Tx:18.56  mind. But the communication is internal. [It is not made up of  different parts which reach each other.] Mind reaches to itself.
Tx:18.57  from His Son to make this possible. He would have had to create  different things and to establish different orders of reality, only
Tx:18.57  He would have had to create different things and to establish  different orders of reality, only some of which were love. Yet
Tx:18.64  every instant that you spend without awareness of it gives you a  different view of it when you return.
Tx:18.67 Your way will be  different, not in purpose but in means. A holy relationship is a
Tx:18.76  rest and keeping it apart from its Creator. This little aspect is no  different from the whole, being continuous with it and at one with
Tx:18.94  the one you cannot take, transports you to something completely  different. Here is the Source of light—nothing perceived, forgiven,
Tx:18.95  world, beyond which learning cannot go, will go beyond it but in a  different way. Where learning ends there God begins, for learning

Tx:20.42 You look upon each holy instant as a  different point in time. It never changes. All that it ever held or
Tx:20.74  which they serve? This world seems to hold out many purposes, each  different and with different values. Yet they are all the same. Again
Tx:20.74  This world seems to hold out many purposes, each different and with  different values. Yet they are all the same. Again there is no order
Tx:22.1  believed by each to be within himself. And each one seems to make a  different error, and one the other cannot understand. Brothers, it
Tx:22.2  has need for sin? Only the lonely and alone who see their brothers  different from themselves. It is this difference, seen but not real,
Tx:22.3 A holy relationship starts from a  different premise. Each one has looked within and seen no lack.

Tx:22.15 Christ comes to what is like Himself; the same, not  different. For He is always drawn unto Himself. What is as like Him
Tx:22.16  truth is meaningless, do they appear to be the only alternatives and  different from each other. In truth they are the same. Both bring the
Tx:22.17  world of misery is to select some aspects out of it, see them as  different, and define the difference as joy. Yet to perceive a
Tx:22.19  other way. Truth is the same and misery the same, but they are  different from each other in every way, in every instance, and
Tx:22.19  one exception can exist is to confuse what is the same with what is  different. One illusion cherished and defended against the truth
Tx:22.24  the meaningless idea that thoughts can leave the thinker's mind, be  different from it, and in opposition to it. If this were true,
Tx:22.24  possible the Son of God could leave his Father's Mind, make himself  different, and oppose His Will, would it be possible that the self he
Tx:22.25  made is yours. You would condemn His joy to misery and make Him  different. And all the misery you made has been your own. Are you not
Tx:22.29  be understood. And here do reason and the ego separate to go their  different ways.
Tx:22.35 Only mistakes have  different forms, and so they can deceive. You can change form
Tx:22.63  can attack. So you conclude because you can attack you must be  different. Yet does the Holy Spirit explain this differently.
Tx:22.63  does the Holy Spirit explain this differently. Because you are not  different, you cannot attack. Either position is a logical
Tx:22.63  cannot attack. Either position is a logical conclusion if only the  different can attack. Either could be maintained, but never both. The
Tx:22.63  to be answered to decide which must be true is whether you are  different. From the position of what you understand, you seem to be
Tx:22.65  you cannot separate, denies the ego. Let truth decide if you be  different or the same and teach you which is true.
Tx:23.12  yourself is but the battle of two illusions, struggling to make them  different from each other in the belief the one which conquers will
Tx:23.12  There is no conflict between them and the truth. Nor are they  different from each other. Both are not true. And so it matters not
Tx:23.17  except illusions. Illusions can conflict because their forms are  different. And they do battle only to establish which form is true.
Tx:23.20 The first chaotic law is that the truth is  different for everyone. Like all these principles, this one maintains
Tx:23.20  these principles, this one maintains that each is separate and has a  different set of thoughts which sets him off from others. This
Tx:23.23  For one must always be condemned and by the other. Now are they  different and enemies. And their relationship is one of opposition,
Tx:23.39  to chaos do follow neatly from their starting point. Each is a  different form in the progression of truth's reversal, leading still
Tx:23.43  difference. Thus it would teach a little of the same can still be  different, and yet the same remain intact as one. Does this make
Tx:23.48 What can be equal to the truth yet  different? Murder and love are incompatible. Yet if they both are
Tx:23.49  Son is murder, but it is insanity. What is the same can have no  different function. Creation is the means for God's extension, and
Tx:23.51  place look down upon it. From there will your perspective be quite  different. Here in the midst of it, it does seem real. Here you
Tx:24.5  and whom He knows? Only the special could have enemies, for they are  different and not the same. And difference of any kind imposes orders
Tx:24.6  for there is nothing in the universe unlike itself. But what is  different calls for judgment, and this must come from someone
Tx:24.11  your enemy and not your friend. Never can there be peace among the  different. He is your friend because you are the same.
Tx:24.16  but never will you hear the Voice for God beside it. They speak a  different language and they fall on different ears. To every special
Tx:24.16  for God beside it. They speak a different language and they fall on  different ears. To every special one a different message, and one
Tx:24.16  language and they fall on different ears. To every special one a  different message, and one with different meaning, is the truth. Yet
Tx:24.16  ears. To every special one a different message, and one with  different meaning, is the truth. Yet how can truth be different to
Tx:24.16  and one with different meaning, is the truth. Yet how can truth be  different to each one? The special messages the special hear convince
Tx:24.16  one? The special messages the special hear convince them they are  different and apart—each in his special sins and “safe” from love,
Tx:24.18  be you certain that the truth is just the same in both. It gives no  different messages and has one meaning. And it is one you both
Tx:24.44  are illusions too, as much as yours. And yet, because they serve a  different purpose, the strength their purpose holds is given them.
Tx:24.70 Look at yourself, and you will see a body. Look at this body in a  different light, and it looks different. And without a light, it
Tx:24.70  see a body. Look at this body in a different light, and it looks  different. And without a light, it seems that it is gone. Yet you are
Tx:24.72  how they look, nor where they go, nor even what they do. They have a  different purpose. It is this that joins them to their like and
Tx:24.72  joins them to their like and separates each from all aspects with a  different purpose. The Son of God retains His Father's Will. The son
Tx:24.72  to specialness but by your choice. And it is given you to make a  different choice and use perception for a different purpose. And what
Tx:24.72  is given you to make a different choice and use perception for a  different purpose. And what you see will serve that purpose well and
Tx:25.8  Spirit links the other part, the tiny mad desire to be separate,  different, and special, to the Christ, to make the oneness clear to
Tx:25.11 What is the same can not be  different, and what is one can not have separate parts.
Tx:25.25  who made it, and they do not see it as the same. To each it has a  different purpose, and to each it is a perfect means to serve the
Tx:25.43  He can see no evil, nothing in the world to fear, and no one who is  different from himself. And as he loves them, so he looks upon
Tx:25.59  to you in God's Own plan to show His Sons that hell and Heaven are  different, not the same. And that in Heaven they are all the
Tx:25.72  loving justice knows to be his due. For love and justice are not  different. Because they are the same does mercy stand at God's
Tx:26.12  time, or any attribute which you perceive that makes each one seem  different from the rest. Think not the limits you impose on what you
Tx:26.21  there are no simple facts because what is the same and what is  different remain unclear. The one essential thing to make a choice at
Tx:26.22  this aim. Its only purpose is to teach what is the same and what is  different, leaving room to make the only choice which can be made.
Tx:26.24  to give up all attempts to choose between them and to make them  different. [How simple is the choice between two things so clearly
Tx:26.30  for only that is all there is to learn. And you can learn it many  different ways. All learning is a help or hindrance to the gate of
Tx:26.30  in between is possible. There are two teachers only, who point in  different ways. And you will go along the way your chosen teacher
Tx:26.62  is one to Him must be the same. If you believe what is the same is  different, you but deceive yourself. What God calls one will be
Tx:26.68  a little separate. For time and space are one illusion which takes  different forms. If it has been projected beyond your minds, you
Tx:26.85  response of anger now is just. And thus you see what is the same as  different. Confusion is not limited. If it occurs at all, it will be
Tx:27.5  hands made gentle by His touch, the Holy Spirit lays a picture of a  different you. It is a picture of a body still, for what you really

Tx:27.12  lasting sign of what it represents. This leaves no space in which a  different view, another purpose, can be given it. You do not know
Tx:27.23  perceive a function unified which has conflicting purposes and  different ends. Correction, to a mind so split, must be a way to
Tx:27.26  And this He does by giving both of you a function that is one, not  different.
Tx:27.36  plain. A problem set in conflict has no answer, for it is seen in  different ways. And what would be an answer from one point of view is
Tx:27.38  A double question asks and answers, both attesting the same thing in  different form.
Tx:27.42  not entailed within the question asked. It offers something new and  different from the question. How could it be answered if it but
Tx:27.50  them all. This is because they really are the same despite their  different forms. All learning aims at transfer, which becomes
Tx:27.51  were not your own. And it will also be apparent that your many  different problems will be solved as any one of them has been
Tx:27.52  the power of your learning will be proved to you by all the many  different witnesses it finds. Your brother first among them will be
Tx:27.52  are a thousand more. Each one may seem to have a problem which is  different from the rest. Yet they are solved together. And their
Tx:27.55  of pain.” These witnesses are joined by many more. Each one seems  different because it has a different name, and so it seems to answer

Tx:27.55  because it has a different name, and so it seems to answer to a  different sound. Except for this, the witnesses of sin are all alike.
Tx:27.59  is bound by laws which it came solely to undo! The laws of sin have  different witnesses with different strengths. And they attest to
Tx:27.59  came solely to undo! The laws of sin have different witnesses with  different strengths. And they attest to different sufferings. Yet to
Tx:27.59  different witnesses with different strengths. And they attest to  different sufferings. Yet to the One Who sends forth miracles to
Tx:27.60 The laws which call them  different are dissolved and shown as powerless. The purpose of a
Tx:27.71  the choice is split between a tiny you and an enormous world, with  different dreams about the truth in you. The gap between reality and
Tx:27.77  hurtful. Above all, it tries to teach itself its pains and joys are  different and can be told apart.
Tx:27.89  none exist, and He will teach you how each one is caused. None has a  different cause from all the rest, and all of them are easily undone
Tx:28.14  Its effects. There never was a cause beside It that could generate a  different past or future. Its effects are changelessly eternal,
Tx:28.42  for in the gap no stable self exists. What is the same seems  different because what is the same appears to be unlike. His dreams
Tx:29.37  in every dream that has been kept apart from use by Him Who sees a  different function for a dream. When dreams are shared, they lose the
Tx:29.38  endless strife and misery and pain? These questions are the same in  different form. Forgiveness is your peace, for herein lies the end
Tx:30.14  have already gotten angry, and your fear of being answered in a  different way from what your version of the question asks will gain
Tx:30.82  every situation could each one be open to interpretation which is  different every time you think of it. You add an element into the
Tx:30.83  the ease with which these labels change with other judgments made on  different aspects of experience. And then in looking back you think
Tx:30.84  But it must accord one meaning to them all. If they are given  different meanings, it must be that they reflect but different
Tx:30.84  they are given different meanings, it must be that they reflect but  different purposes. And this is all the meaning that they have. Can
Tx:30.86  purpose is the end of all ideas of sacrifice, which must assume a  different purpose for the one who gains and him who loses. There
Tx:30.86  no thought of sacrifice apart from this idea. And it is this idea of  different goals which makes perception shift and meaning change. In
Tx:30.87  really be established while the symbols which are used mean  different things? The Holy Spirit's goal gives one interpretation,
Tx:31.7 The lessons to be learned are only two. Each has its outcome in a  different world. And each world follows surely from its source. The
Tx:31.14  you think you must decide on anything. Neither is true. Nor are they  different. Yet must we see them both before you can look past them to
Tx:31.14  before you can look past them to the one alternative that is a  different choice. But not in dreams you made that this might be
Tx:31.17  you. Between these two is choice because from them there is a  different outcome. If he be the leader or the follower to you, it
Tx:31.21  one answer to them all. Because He hears one Voice, He cannot hear a  different answer from the one He gave when God appointed Him His only
Tx:31.24  for what you want and needs the same as you. It takes perhaps a  different form in him, but it is not the form you answer to. He asks
Tx:31.26  condemn. As you prepare to make a choice that will result in  different outcomes, there is first one thing that must be
Tx:31.34  that problems could not be escaped. Be not deceived by all the  different names its roads are given. They have but one end. And each
Tx:31.38  to learn to find a road the world does not contain. The search for  different pathways in the world is but the search for different forms
Tx:31.38  The search for different pathways in the world is but the search for  different forms of truth. And this would keep the truth from being
Tx:31.40  teach no more than that the power of decision cannot lie in choosing  different forms of what is still the same illusion and the same
Tx:31.56  it thinks. And what can think has choice and can be shown that  different thoughts have different consequence. So it can learn that
Tx:31.56  can think has choice and can be shown that different thoughts have  different consequence. So it can learn that everything it thinks
Tx:31.76  God and of salvation, and the love of guilt and death, they all are  different names for just one error—that there is a space between

W1:I.3 The purpose of these exercises is to train the mind to a  different perception of everything in the world. The workbook is
W1:I.3  that each exercise be repeated several times a day, preferably in a  different place each time and, if possible, in every situation in
W1:4.3  a major exercise and will be repeated from time to time in somewhat  different form. The aim here is to train you in the first steps
W1:4.3  of training your mind to recognize what is the same and what is  different. In using your thoughts for application of the idea for
W1:5.1  jealousy, or any number of forms, all of which will be perceived as  different. This is not true. However, until you learn that form does
W1:5.10  for no more than a minute or so, and try to identify a number of  different forms of upset that are disturbing you, regardless of the
W1:10.2  time we have used this kind of idea. The form is only slightly  different. This time the idea is introduced with “My thoughts”

W1:15.3  we go along, you may have many “light episodes.” They may take many  different forms, some of them quite unexpected. Do not be afraid of
W1:23.9  realize that thoughts of attack and of being attacked are not  different, you will be ready to let the cause go.
W1:24.4  mind as part of the desired outcome and also that these goals are on  different levels and often conflict.
W1:24.7 and so on. Try to cover as many  different kinds of outcome as may honestly occur to you, even if some
W1:32.2  worlds, which are actually the same. However, since you see them as  different, the practice periods for today will again include two
W1:35.3 The idea for today presents a very  different view of yourself. By establishing your Source, it
W1:35.3  describes you as you must really be in truth. We will use a somewhat  different kind of application for today's idea because the emphasis
W1:44.1  cannot coexist, but light and life must go together, being but  different aspects of creation.
W1:64.6  It is impossible that any decision on earth can have a content  different from just this one simple choice. That is the only choice
W1:66.1  just a connection between them; they are the same. Their forms are  different, but their content is completely one.
W1:66.4  the function He gave you must be happiness, even if it appears to be  different. Today's exercises are an attempt to go beyond these
W1:66.13  giant stride in the perception of the same as the same and the  different as different. On one side stand all illusions. All truth
W1:66.13  in the perception of the same as the same and the different as  different. On one side stand all illusions. All truth stands on the
W1:71.3  and an assertion in which you believe that says, “If this were  different, I would be saved.” The change of mind that is necessary
W1:75.2  The old one has left no trace upon it in its passing. Today we see a  different world because the light has come.
W1:76.4  that thinks these things. You call them laws and put them under  different names in a long catalogue of rituals that have no use and
W1:76.8  begin the longer practice period today with a short review of the  different kinds of “laws” we have believed we must obey. These would

W1:79.3  you are still uncertain about what the problem is. A long series of  different problems seems to confront you, and as one is settled the
W1:79.4  to present you with a vast number of problems, each requiring a  different answer. This perception places you in a position in which
W1:79.7  that we already know. We will try to free our minds of all the many  different kinds of problems that we think we have. We will try to
W1:87.4  You stand with me in light, [name]. In the light this will look  different.
W1:92.7  cannot see a purpose in forgiveness and in love. It sees all others  different from itself and nothing in the world that it would share.
W1:93.3  this, not from the point of view of what you think, but from a very  different reference point from which such idle thoughts are
W1:99.1  something amiss that needs corrective change, something apart or  different from the Will of God. Thus do both terms imply the thought
W1:105.4 Accept God's peace and joy, and you will learn a  different way of looking at a gift. God's gifts will never lessen
W1:108.4 Here are both giving and receiving seen as  different aspects of one Thought Whose truth does not depend on which
W1:127.1 Perhaps you think that  different kinds of love are possible. Perhaps you think there is a
W1:127.9  behind us, never more to be remembered. And we raise our eyes upon a  different present, where a future shines unlike the past in every
W1:128.2  everything must serve the purpose you have given it until you see a  different purpose there. The only purpose worthy of your mind this
W1:131.13 I ask to see a  different world and think a different kind of thought from those I
W1:131.13 I ask to see a different world and think a  different kind of thought from those I made. The world I seek I did
W1:138.6  resolved with it, for all decisions but conceal this one by taking  different forms. Here is the final and the only choice in which is
W1:140.3 The happy dreams the Holy Spirit brings are  different from the dreaming of the world, where one can merely dream
W1:140.7  have no substance, no reality, no core, and nothing that is truly  different?
W1:140.11  all of them as one. They are the same. We have no need to make them  different and thus delay the time when we can hear our Father speak
W1:157.1  are heard. This day is holy, for it ushers in a new experience, a  different kind of feeling and awareness. You have spent long days and
W1:159.7  when it was made. For here it is repaired, made new again but in a  different light. What was to be the home of sin becomes the center of
W1:160.1  remains an alien to the part of you which thinks that it is real but  different from yourself. Who could be sane in such a circumstance?
W1:160.2  our midst who comes from an idea so foreign to the truth he speaks a  different language, looks upon a world truth does not know, and
W1:161.3  to the Holy Spirit that He may employ them for a purpose which is  different from the one we gave to them. Yet He can use but what we
W1:161.3  we gave to them. Yet He can use but what we made to teach us from a  different point of view, so we can see a different use in everything.
W1:161.3  we made to teach us from a different point of view, so we can see a  different use in everything.
W1:164.4  in practicing today will bring rewards so great and so completely  different from all things you sought before that you will know that
W1:167.1 There are not  different kinds of life, for life is like the truth. It does not have
W1:167.4  source and take on qualities the source does not contain, becoming  different from their own origin, apart from it in kind as well as
W1:169.3  it does not know and thus is ready to accept a state completely  different from experience with which it is familiarly at home.
W1:181.4  and future goals. You have been quite preoccupied with how extremely  different the goals this course is advocating are from those you held
W1:184.1  it. This space you lay between all things to which you give a  different name—all happenings in terms of place and time, all
W1:184.14 And though we use a  different name for each awareness of an aspect of God's Son, we
W1:184.15  and You Who are their One Creator. What we made and call by many  different names is but a shadow we have tried to cast across Your Own
W1:185.3  no two can share the same intent. To each the hero of the dream is  different—the outcome wanted not the same for both. Loser and
W1:185.3  patterns, as the ratio of gain to loss and loss to gain takes on a  different aspect or another form.
W1:186.3  trust He holds in you who are His Son. It does not ask that you be  different in any way from what you are. What could humility request
W1:189.3 This is the world the Love of God reveals. It is so  different from the world you see through darkened eyes of malice and
W1:193.5  thought, the same in all of them. The form alone is changed, with  different circumstances and events, with different characters and
W1:193.5  form alone is changed, with different circumstances and events, with  different characters and different themes apparent but not real. They
W1:193.5  different circumstances and events, with different characters and  different themes apparent but not real. They are the same in
W1:200.8  this world behind. But peace begins within the world perceived as  different and leading from this fresh perception to the gate of
W2:WIS.2  Yet can the goal of striving change. And now the body serves a  different aim for striving. What it seeks for now is chosen by the
W2:295.1  me. For all of us must be redeemed together. Fear appears in many  different forms, but love is one.
W2:311.1  Let us not use it today but make a gift of it to Him Who has a  different use for it. He will relieve you of the agony of all the
W2:314.1 From new perception of the world there comes a future very  different from the past. The future now is recognized as but
W2:345.1  to help me with the problems I perceive. Father, in Heaven it is  different, for there, there are no needs. But here on earth, the
M:2.3  long ago passed by is looked upon as a new thought, a fresh idea, a  different approach. Because your will is free, you can accept what

C:12.22  seemed to bring about a completely reshaped life, a destiny  different than that which had already been written. Yet this
C:14.2  it? If not, you have made yourself creation's enemy. You seek to be  different from all the rest, and in this seeking proclaim that one

C:16.6  Without differences there is no cause for conflict. Judgment makes  different. It looks past what is the same and sees it not and sees

C:21.7  This is a problem of meaning. Mind and heart interpret meaning in  different ways. You do not even begin to understand the enormity of
C:21.7  but I assure you that as long as mind and heart interpret meaning in  different ways you will not find peace. You have, in the past,
C:21.7  ways you will not find peace. You have, in the past, accepted these  different interpretations as natural. You see that there are two ways
C:21.7  You act without unity. And, just as if you were two people acting on  different truths in the same situation, conflict cannot help but

C:31.31  not change. And if who you truly are is the truth, how can you be  different? Thus it can be said that the truth and the mind are one in
C:31.35  in which experience can occur. Your ego has made of this something  different than it is. Rather than extension of mind, your experience

T3:11.12 If I can tell you in truth that you are no  different than I am, then you must see that you cannot begin to think

T4:1.6  specifically because of the precedent of its use historically. Many  different groups believe they are the chosen people of God, or
T4:1.13 And yet, as many of you have come instinctively to feel, something is  different now. You are beginning to become excited by the feeling
T4:1.13  You are beginning to become excited by the feeling that something  different is possible; that you might just be able to achieve what
T4:1.13  able to achieve what others have not; that this time might just be  different than any other time. Even as you begin to tentatively let

T4:1.20  Different interpretations of indirectly received truth resulted in  different religions and varying sets of beliefs that, in the way of

T4:2.15  as a child, and different now than you were a few years ago, and  different now than when you began your learning of this Course, you
T4:2.31  Have you suspected that you might see in ways literally  different? That you might see auras or halos, signs and clues
T4:4.13 Being fully aware that you have life everlasting is totally  different than having faith in an afterlife. Faith is based upon the
T4:5.13  thought of it as a time of judgment. But I tell you truly; it is no  different than the time that is upon you right now. The afterlife has

T4:10.2  see that you merely think of experience as learning through a  different means than studying.

D:2.7  but simply the truth. To learn the truth and not accept it is  different from learning what is necessary for a career. To learn the

D:3.19  forms express content. It will be challenging to become aware that  different expressions do not make different. These differences were
D:3.19  challenging to become aware that different expressions do not make  different. These differences were spoken of within this Course as

D:4.31  the New, are one and the same, these reasons will disappear. All the  different reasons you would cite become what they are—one reason,
D:4.31  reason—and you will see that what is one is neither the same nor  different. You will see that there is one answer, an answer different

D:12.7 Let your reception of these words, a reception  different from the reading of the words of most and maybe all other
D:13.8  of Christ, and you will begin to see the evidence that things are  different now. Join with others who are coming to know through the
D:15.23  you return to the level ground from which you climbed, you will be  different as a result of having made your ascent. The hard work is
D:17.5  “get there” has not been satiated but only has grown into something  different. With having arrived comes the “presence” of Self so long
D:17.13 What is  different now is that your wholeheartedness, as well as your desire,
D:Day1.14  which I now would like to lead you beyond, the world would be a  different place. Have I not called you to a new time in which the
D:Day2.11  if you had been the adulterer, the cause of the divorce, this was  different than a tornado or a flood. Yes, this was different, but
D:Day2.11  divorce, this was different than a tornado or a flood. Yes, this was  different, but this difference does not place these actions beyond

D:Day4.33 Many, however, have applied a  different kind of focus upon breathing as a form of meditation. In

D:Day7.7  acceptance that will be of great service to you now is that of the  different relationship that you will have with time. This is a time
D:Day8.4 Realize that your desire for your life to be  different, your desire for your unhappiness to be gone, is very
D:Day9.5  of the self of form. The certainty that arises from unity is  different from this confidence in the self of form and they must be

D:Day10.11  you have trusted in the most is rational thought, and intuition is  different than rational thought, as are feelings of all kinds. You
D:Day10.12  is often more difficult to become adept in doing something in a way  different than you have done it before than to do something

D:Day15.21 To be engaged in dialogue with certain others is  different than entering the dialogue, but entering the dialogue is

D:Day15.26  from the others with whom you are coming to know, and perhaps quite  different than you thought it would be. You will be shown that you

D:Day17.3  are has been discussed in many ways, many of you still await being  different than who you are. This is because you realize that being

D:Day24.7  butterfly have always been one and remain one. Each form is but a  different stage in the becoming of the spirit. Without release, it
D:Day27.9  All that is now seen as dualistic in nature can be experienced as  different levels of experience of one whole. You might consider this
D:Day27.9  another, you might see the dawning of light. Opposites exist only as  different aspects of one whole. Different aspects exist only as
D:Day27.9  of light. Opposites exist only as different aspects of one whole.  Different aspects exist only as different levels of experience.

D:Day28.6  made choices within that career path, but never really consider a  different career path. Many simply reach a state of reasonable
D:Day28.8 Now something new awaits you. It is a choice so  different and a means so revolutionary that it will take some getting

D:Day32.7  Himself. This concept may be quite amorphous and not tremendously  different than scientific notions of the source of life. Whether it
D:Day32.17  that of Father to Son but also as one in being. One in being, but  different in relationship.
D:Day32.18 Could God be one in being, but  different in relationship, to each of us? Could not God's oneness of
D:Day32.18  God from us and us from God? So that we are both one in being and  different? Could it be that while we are one in being with God we can
D:Day32.19 Would this answer your questions concerning how God is both  different and the same? Would this answer your questions concerning
D:Day33.7  Yet if relationship and being are one, and you are one in being and  different in relationship, what is being said is that being and
D:Day33.9 Yet the response of love can look as  different as the events, situations, people, and places that populate
D:Day33.12  In other words, relationship is the expression of power—all the  different expressions of power. In the time of Jesus, the powerful
D:Day35.3 This fullness of being is  different for each one of you because it is the cause and effect, the
D:Day35.3  your being. But while it has been said that you are one in being and  different in relationship, relationship is also God. God is the
D:Day35.7  and fundamental idea—the idea that you are one in being and  different in relationship. The idea that you return to your humanity
D:Day35.8  caused life to be as it has been, this shift will cause life to be  different, or in other words, new.
D:Day35.13 Unity is oneness of being. Relationship is  different expressions of oneness of being.
D:Day35.18 Being a creator, and creating anew, is  different than being affected by the ongoing nature of creation.
D:Day35.19  the power you have always retained. But creating in separation is as  different from creating in unity as has been your concept of God and
D:Day36.7  is everything, your creatorship of your experience is a totally  different exercise. You realize that your life is not you but that
D:Day36.7  are one. You are one in being with the power of creation and  different in your relationship to and expression of that power.
D:Day36.10  is what is meant when it is said that you are one in being and  different in relationship. Without your awareness of unity and
D:Day36.10  being without relationship. You could conceive of self and God in  different ways, but you could not truly create difference but only
D:Day36.16 When you realize that you are one in being with God and  different in relationship you accept the power of being, or
D:Day36.19  the truth. It is the same truth that has been stated here in many  different ways to allow you to become accustomed to the idea of a
D:Day37.2  should it be difficult to see that God is being? This is not much  different than saying that the most basic truth about you is that you
D:Day37.25  all of God and God was all of Jesus while at the same time each was  different or individuated by being in union and relationship.
D:Day38.9  that have become faulty ideas in separation. They mean an entirely  different thing in union and relationship. They mean union and

Tx:18.17  scream, “I want it thus!” And thus it seems to be. And yet the  dream cannot escape its origin. Anger and fear pervade it, and in an
Tx:18.17  of satisfaction is invaded by the illusion of terror. For the  dream of your ability to control reality by substituting a world

Tx:18.23 Yet Heaven is sure. This is no  dream. Its coming means that you have chosen truth, and it has come

Tx:18.45  to love your brother as yourself. Nor is your holy relationship a  dream. All that remains of dreams within it is that it is still a

Tx:21.72  because they have no need to dream of power and to act out their  dream. How would an army act in dreams? Any way at all. It could be

Tx:24.32  on which they sleep and call them to come forth and waken from their  dream of death. Yet they hear nothing. They are lost in dreams of

Tx:24.32  God and die, but not by Him Who made not death, but only in the  dream. Open your eyes a little; see the savior God gave to you that
Tx:24.38  real. If he is sinful, then is your reality not real but just a  dream of specialness which lasts an instant, crumbling into dust.
Tx:24.39 Do not defend this senseless  dream in which God is bereft of what He loves and you remain beyond
Tx:24.41 There is no  dream of specialness—however hidden or disguised the form; however
Tx:24.41  dreams, effect and cause are interchanged, for here the maker of the  dream believes that what he made is happening to him. He does not

Tx:27.69  from a dream he did not make. Helpless he stands, a victim to a  dream conceived and cherished by a separate mind. Careless indeed of
Tx:27.69  him not but casts him as it will in any role that satisfies its  dream. So little is his worth that he is but a dancing shadow,
Tx:27.71  and dreams lies not between the dreaming of the world and what you  dream in secret. They are one. The dreaming of the world is but a

Tx:27.71  were its start and ending both. Yet was it started by your secret  dream, which you do not perceive, although it caused the part you see
Tx:27.71  not doubt is real. How could you doubt it while you lie asleep and  dream in secret that its cause is real?
Tx:27.72  your death, yet plans that it be lingering and slow—of this you  dream. Yet underneath this dream is yet another in which you become

Tx:27.73  other cause it has, nor ever will. Nothing more fearful than an idle  dream has terrified God's Son and made him think that he has lost his
Tx:27.73  denied his Father, and made war upon himself. So fearful is the  dream, so seeming real, he could not waken to reality without the
Tx:27.73  the sweat of terror and a scream of mortal fear unless a gentler  dream preceded his awaking and allowed his calmer mind to welcome,
Tx:27.73  not to fear, the Voice that calls with love to waken him. [A gentler  dream, in which his suffering was healed and where his brother was
Tx:27.73  and with joy. And gave him means to waken without fear. Accept the  dream He gave instead of yours. It is not difficult to [shift] a

Tx:27.75  in your dreams on his mistakes. Select his thoughtfulness to  dream about instead of counting up the hurts he gave. Forgive him his
Tx:27.76  what you see as gifts your brother offers represent the gifts you  dream your Father gives to you. Let all your brother's gifts be seen
Tx:27.76  of charity and kindness offered you. And let no pain disturb your  dream of deep appreciation for his gifts to you.

Tx:27.77  world. There is no dream without it, nor does it exist without the  dream, in which it acts as if it were a person, to be seen and be
Tx:27.77  to be seen and be believed. It takes the central place in every  dream, which tells the story of how it was made by other bodies, born
Tx:27.78  call its own. It looks about for special bodies which can share its  dream. Sometimes it dreams it is a conqueror of bodies weaker than
Tx:27.78  a conqueror of bodies weaker than itself. But in some phases of the  dream, it is the slave of bodies that would hurt and torture it.
Tx:27.79  adventures from the time of birth to dying is the theme of every  dream the world has ever had. The “hero” of this dream will never
Tx:27.79  the theme of every dream the world has ever had. The “hero” of this  dream will never change nor will its purpose. Though the dream itself
Tx:27.79  of this dream will never change nor will its purpose. Though the  dream itself takes many forms and seems to show a great variety of
Tx:27.79  variety of places and events wherein its “hero” finds itself, the  dream has but one purpose, taught in many ways. This single lesson
Tx:27.80  this is all the body does is true, for it is but a figure in a  dream. But who reacts to figures in a dream unless he sees them as if
Tx:27.80  for it is but a figure in a dream. But who reacts to figures in a  dream unless he sees them as if they were real? The instant that he
Tx:27.81  of all the dreams the world has ever had? Is it your wish to let no  dream appear to be the cause of what it is you do? Then let us merely
Tx:27.82  the grounds for laughter, not a cause for fear. Let us return the  dream he gave away unto the dreamer who perceives the dream as
Tx:27.82  us return the dream he gave away unto the dreamer who perceives the  dream as separate from himself and done to him. Into eternity, where
Tx:27.83  punishes because of all the sinful things the body does within its  dream. You have no power to make the body stop its evil deeds because
Tx:27.85  but hear Him say, “My brother, Holy Son of God, behold your idle  dream in which this could occur,” and you will leave the holy instant
Tx:27.86  this is still true. For you would not react at all to figures in a  dream you knew that you were dreaming. Let them be as hateful and
Tx:27.86  have no effect on you unless you failed to recognize it is your  dream. This single lesson learned will set you free from suffering,
Tx:28.18  has happened but that you have put yourself to sleep and dreamed a  dream in which you were an alien to yourself and but a part of
Tx:28.18  which you were an alien to yourself and but a part of someone else's  dream.
Tx:28.19  Do you wish for dreams of healing or for dreams of death? A  dream is like a memory in that it pictures what you wanted shown to
Tx:28.19  you perceive this much at least—that you have caused the  dream and can accept another dream as well. But for this change in
Tx:28.19  at least—that you have caused the dream and can accept another  dream as well. But for this change in content of the dream, it must
Tx:28.19  accept another dream as well. But for this change in content of the  dream, it must be realized that it is you who dreamed the dreaming
Tx:28.20  you would exchange for this. This world is causeless, as is every  dream that anyone has dreamed within the world. No plans are possible
Tx:28.21  no cause? Yet if it has no cause, it has no purpose. You may cause a  dream, but never will you give it real effects. For that would change
Tx:28.21  change its cause, and it is this you cannot do. The dreamer of a  dream is not awake but does not know he sleeps. He sees illusions of
Tx:28.22 The miracle establishes you  dream a dream and that its content is not true. This is a crucial
Tx:28.22 The miracle establishes you dream a  dream and that its content is not true. This is a crucial step in
Tx:28.22  was held in place because he did not see that he was author of the  dream, and not a figure in the dream. He gives himself the
Tx:28.22  did not see that he was author of the dream, and not a figure in the  dream. He gives himself the consequences which he dreams he gave
Tx:28.22  which he dreams he gave his brother. And it is but this the  dream has put together and has offered him to show him that his
Tx:28.23 The separation started with the  dream the Father was deprived of His effects and powerless to keep
Tx:28.23  powerless to keep them since He was no longer their Creator. In the  dream, the dreamer made himself, but what he made has turned against
Tx:28.23  the dreamer had. And as he hated his Creator, so the figures in the  dream have hated him. His body is their slave which they abuse
Tx:28.23  which appears to prove the dreamer could not be the maker of the  dream. Effect and cause are first split off and then reversed, so
Tx:28.24  of causation, not effect. For this confusion has produced the  dream, and while it lasts, will wakening be feared. Nor will the call
Tx:28.25  that it has no effects. Now are you freed from this much of the  dream; the world is neutral, and the bodies which still seem to move
Tx:28.27  is full of miracles. They stand in shining silence next to every  dream of pain and suffering, of sin and guilt. They are the dream's
Tx:28.27  to be the dreamer rather than deny the active role in making up the  dream. They are the glad effects of taking back the consequence of
Tx:28.28  serene and simple in the rising up to waking and the ending of the  dream. When you accept a miracle, you do not add your dream of fear
Tx:28.28  ending of the dream. When you accept a miracle, you do not add your  dream of fear to one that is already being dreamed. Without support,
Tx:28.28  of fear to one that is already being dreamed. Without support, the  dream will fade away without effects. For it is your support that
Tx:28.30  brother to be sick, for if he is, have you abandoned him to his own  dream by sharing it with him. He has not seen the cause of sickness
Tx:28.30  coming that you want above all things that seem to glisten in the  dream.
Tx:28.35  your brother there. And sickness will be seen without a cause. The  dream of healing in forgiveness lies and gently shows you that you
Tx:28.37  the Atonement for yourself means not to give support to someone's  dream of sickness and of death. It means that you share not his wish
Tx:28.37  with him because that is your wish. And you become a figure in his  dream of pain, as he in yours. So do you both become illusions and
Tx:28.37  identity. You could be anyone or anything, depending on whose evil  dream you share. You can be sure of just one thing—that you are
Tx:28.38  from him who dreams them. Thus you separate the dreamer from the  dream and join [with] one but let the other go. The dream is but
Tx:28.38  from the dream and join [with] one but let the other go. The  dream is but illusion in the mind. And with the mind you would
Tx:28.38  the mind. And with the mind you would unite, but never with the  dream. It is the dream you fear and not the mind. You see them as
Tx:28.38  the mind you would unite, but never with the dream. It is the  dream you fear and not the mind. You see them as the same because
Tx:28.38  You see them as the same because you think that you are but a  dream. And what is real and what is but illusion in yourself you do
Tx:28.39 Like you, your brother thinks he is a  dream. Share not in his illusion of himself, for your identity
Tx:28.39  not brother made by what he dreams, nor is his body, “hero” of the  dream, your brother. It is his reality that is your brother, as is
Tx:28.40  he will not be released, and you are kept in bondage to his  dream. And dreams of fear will haunt the little gap, inhabited but by
Tx:28.41  his part, but this you do when you become a passive figure in his  dream instead of dreamer of your own. Identity in dreams is
Tx:28.41  own. Identity in dreams is meaningless because the dreamer and the  dream are one. Who shares a dream must be the dream he shares
Tx:28.41  because the dreamer and the dream are one. Who shares a  dream must be the dream he shares because by sharing is a cause
Tx:28.41  dreamer and the dream are one. Who shares a dream must be the  dream he shares because by sharing is a cause produced.
Tx:28.42  [disappear before his eyes], and he will understand what made the  dream.
Tx:28.43  that he was separated from his brother who, by sharing not his  dream, has left the space between them vacant. And the Father comes
Tx:28.44  he will recognize himself. If you share not your brother's evil  dream, this is the picture that the miracle will place within the
Tx:28.48  dreams if you forgive the dreamer and perceive that he is not the  dream he made. And so he cannot be a part of yours, from which you
Tx:28.48  you both are free. Forgiveness separates the dreamer from the evil  dream and thus releases him.
Tx:28.49 Remember if you share an evil  dream, you will believe you are the dream you share. And fearing
Tx:28.49 Remember if you share an evil dream, you will believe you are the  dream you share. And fearing it, you will not want to know your own
Tx:28.49  A middle ground where you can be a thing that is not you must be a  dream and cannot be the truth.
Tx:28.51  And what that He created not can be? Let not your eyes behold a  dream, your ears bear witness to illusion. They were made to look
Tx:28.63  as purpose is the body healed. It is not used to witness to the  dream of separation and disease. Nor is it idly blamed for what it
Tx:28.64 But never you alone. This world is but the  dream that you can be alone and think without affecting those apart
Tx:29.16 The body does not change. It represents the larger  dream that change is possible. To change is to attain a state unlike
Tx:29.21  that He is perfect and complete? Deny Him not His witness in the  dream His Son prefers to his reality. He must be savior from the
Tx:29.21  dream His Son prefers to his reality. He must be savior from the  dream he made, that he be free of it. He must see someone else as
Tx:29.21  keep apart all living things who know not that they live. Within the  dream of bodies and of death is yet one theme of truth—no more,
Tx:29.24  as bright as shines in him. This is the spark that shines within the  dream—that you can help him waken and be sure his waking eyes will
Tx:29.25  understood that dreams are dreams and that escape depends not on the  dream, but only on awaking. Could it be some dreams are kept and
Tx:29.25  select some dreams to leave untouched by its beneficence. You cannot  dream some dreams and wake from some, for you are either sleeping or
Tx:29.26  you back as much as those in which the fear is seen. For every  dream is but a dream of fear, no matter what the form it seems to
Tx:29.26  much as those in which the fear is seen. For every dream is but a  dream of fear, no matter what the form it seems to take. The fear is
Tx:29.26  can be disguised in pleasant form. But never is it absent from the  dream, for fear is the material of dreams from which they all are
Tx:29.27  it is attacked. Depression or assault must be the theme of every  dream, for they are made of fear. The thin disguise of pleasure and
Tx:29.28  and should achieve for you. If it succeeds, you think you like the  dream. If it should fail, you think the dream is sad. But whether it
Tx:29.28  you think you like the dream. If it should fail, you think the  dream is sad. But whether it succeeds or fails is not its core but
Tx:29.29  not the one who gave the “proper” role to every figure which the  dream contains. No one can fail but your idea of him, and there is
Tx:29.29  giving you a chance to help if this becomes the function of the  dream. And dreams of sadness thus are turned to joy.
Tx:29.30  when he fails to take the part which you assigned to him in what you  dream your life was meant to be. He asks for help in every dream he
Tx:29.30  what you dream your life was meant to be. He asks for help in every  dream he has, and you have help to give him if you see the function
Tx:29.30  he has, and you have help to give him if you see the function of the  dream as He perceives its function, Who can utilize all dreams as
Tx:29.30  serve the function given Him. Because He loves the dreamer not the  dream, each dream becomes an offering of love. For at its center is
Tx:29.30  function given Him. Because He loves the dreamer not the dream, each  dream becomes an offering of love. For at its center is His love for
Tx:29.36 A  dream is given you in which he is your savior, not your enemy in
Tx:29.36  is given you in which he is your savior, not your enemy in hate. A  dream is given you in which you have forgiven him for all his dreams
Tx:29.36  you in which you have forgiven him for all his dreams of death—a  dream of hope you share with him instead of dreaming evil separate
Tx:29.36  evil separate dreams of hate. Why does it seem so hard to share this  dream? Because unless the Holy Spirit gives the dream its function,
Tx:29.36  hard to share this dream? Because unless the Holy Spirit gives the  dream its function, it was made for hate and will continue in death's
Tx:29.37 Such is the core of fear in every  dream that has been kept apart from use by Him Who sees a different
Tx:29.37  been kept apart from use by Him Who sees a different function for a  dream. When dreams are shared, they lose the function of attack and
Tx:29.37  of attack and separation, even though it was for this that every  dream was made. Yet nothing in the world of dreams remains without
Tx:29.38  is your peace, for herein lies the end of separation and the  dream of danger and destruction, sin, and death; of madness and of
Tx:29.42  that it was made to crucify God's Son. For even though it was a  dream of death, you need not let it stand for this to you. Let this
Tx:29.44  here but must still have hope, some lingering illusion, or some  dream that there is something outside of himself that will bring
Tx:29.48  within from being known to you and to maintain allegiance to the  dream that you must find what is outside yourself to be complete and
Tx:29.49  the power you ascribe to them. And you pursue them vainly in the  dream because you want their power as your own.
Tx:29.50 Yet where are dreams but in a mind asleep? And can a  dream succeed in making real the pictures it projects outside itself?
Tx:29.61  look to idols that they raise him up? Hear then your story in the  dream you made, and ask yourself if it be not the truth that you
Tx:29.61  yourself if it be not the truth that you believe that it is not a  dream. A dream of judgment came into the mind that God created
Tx:29.61  if it be not the truth that you believe that it is not a dream. A  dream of judgment came into the mind that God created perfect as
Tx:29.61  came into the mind that God created perfect as Himself. And in that  dream was Heaven changed to hell, and God made enemy unto His Son.
Tx:29.62 How can God's Son awaken from the  dream? It is a dream of judgment. So must he judge not, and he will
Tx:29.62 How can God's Son awaken from the dream? It is a  dream of judgment. So must he judge not, and he will waken. For the
Tx:29.62  of judgment. So must he judge not, and he will waken. For the  dream will seem to last while he is part of it. Judge not, for he who
Tx:29.63 All figures in the  dream are idols made to save you from the dream. Yet they are part
Tx:29.63 All figures in the dream are idols made to save you from the  dream. Yet they are part of what they have been made to save you
Tx:29.63  they have been made to save you from. Thus does an idol keep the  dream alive and terrible, for who could wish for one unless he were
Tx:29.63  and so its worship is the worship of despair and terror and the  dream from which they come. Judgment is an injustice to God's Son,
Tx:29.63  him will not escape the penalty he laid upon himself within the  dream he made. God knows of justice, not of penalty. But in the dream
Tx:29.63  the dream he made. God knows of justice, not of penalty. But in the  dream of judgment, you attack and are condemned and wish to be the
Tx:29.64 There can be no salvation in the  dream as you are dreaming it. For idols must be part of it to save
Tx:29.64  out the light within you. Little children, it is there. You do but  dream, and idols are the toys you dream you play with. Who has need
Tx:29.64  children, it is there. You do but dream, and idols are the toys you  dream you play with. Who has need of toys but children? They pretend
Tx:29.64  play with them. But they are eager to forget that they made up the  dream in which their toys are real, nor recognize their wishes are
Tx:29.65  turned against the child who thought he made them real. Yet can a  dream attack? Or can a toy grow large and dangerous and fierce and
Tx:29.66  children. Put them all away, for you have need of them no more. The  dream of judgment is a children's game in which the child becomes the
Tx:29.67 The real world still is but a  dream. Except the figures have been changed. They are not seen as
Tx:29.67  have been changed. They are not seen as idols which betray. It is a  dream in which no one is used to substitute for something else nor
Tx:29.67  not, for childish things have all been put away. And what was once a  dream of judgment now has changed into a dream where all is joy
Tx:29.67  away. And what was once a dream of judgment now has changed into a  dream where all is joy because that is the purpose which it has.
Tx:29.67  here, for time is almost over. And the forms which enter in the  dream are now perceived as brothers, not in judgment but in love.
Tx:29.68  separate the mind from what it thinks. They do not seek to prove the  dream is being dreamed by someone else. And in these dreams a melody
Tx:29.69  pain of self-betrayal and uncertainty, so deep and bitter that the  dream cannot conceal completely all your sense of doom. Your
Tx:29.70  attack. Forgiving dreams are kind to everyone who figures in the  dream. And so they bring the dreamer full release from dreams of
Tx:30.28  you from the ravages of fear. When this has been achieved, the sorry  dream of judgment has forever been undone. But meanwhile, you have
Tx:30.31  Nothing can be caused without some form of union, be it with a  dream of judgment or the Voice for God. Decisions cause results
Tx:30.55 Salvation is a paradox indeed! What could it be except a happy  dream? It asks you but that you forgive all things that no one ever
Tx:30.56 Here does the  dream of separation start to fade and disappear. For here the gap
Tx:30.57  no demands are made of anyone or anything to twist and fit into the  dream of fear. Instead, there is a wish to understand all things
Tx:30.58  of the world is one which all must share if hope be more than just a  dream.
Tx:30.90  changing views of him which you perceive as his reality. The happy  dream about him takes the form of the appearance of his perfect
Tx:30.94  place of what your brother really is. Let no temptation to prefer a  dream allow uncertainty to enter here. Be not made guilty and afraid
Tx:30.94  enter here. Be not made guilty and afraid when you are tempted by a  dream of what he is. But do not give it power to replace the
Tx:31.81  of failing dreams and no remaining hope except to die and end the  dream of fear. This is temptation, nothing more than this. Can

Tx:17.34  all sorts of fanciful and fragmented illusions of love, set with  dreams of sacrifice and self-aggrandizement and interlaced with
Tx:17.77  and dim imaginings of terror, cold fantasies of fear and fiery  dreams of hell. And it was nothing but the intolerable strain of
Tx:18.14 Does not a world that seems quite real arise in  dreams? Yet think what this world is. It is clearly not the world
Tx:18.15  Dreams are chaotic because they are governed by your conflicting

Tx:18.17  Dreams are perceptual temper tantrums in which you literally scream,
Tx:18.18  Dreams show you that you have the power to make a world as you
Tx:18.18  not be theirs, and the illusion of satisfaction would be gone. In  dreams these features are not obscure. You seem to waken, and the
Tx:18.19  seem to wake to is but another form of this same world you see in  dreams. All your time is spent in dreaming. Your sleeping and your
Tx:18.19  All your time is spent in dreaming. Your sleeping and your waking  dreams have different forms, and that is all. Their content is the
Tx:18.19  your fixed and insane idea that you can change it. In your waking  dreams, the special relationship [has a special place. It is the
Tx:18.19  place. It is the means by which you try to make your sleeping  dreams come true. From this you do not awaken. The special
Tx:18.20 The Holy Spirit, ever practical in His wisdom, accepts your  dreams and uses them as means for waking. You would have used them
Tx:18.20  them to remain asleep. We once said that the first change, before  dreams disappear, is that your dreams of fear are changed to happy
Tx:18.20  said that the first change, before dreams disappear, is that your  dreams of fear are changed to happy dreams. That is what the Holy
Tx:18.20  dreams disappear, is that your dreams of fear are changed to happy  dreams. That is what the Holy Spirit does in your special
Tx:18.22  not the dream take hold to close your eyes. It is not strange that  dreams can make a world that is unreal. The wish to make it is
Tx:18.22  has been removed because its purpose has been changed from one of  dreams to one of truth. You are not sure of this because you think it
Tx:18.22  may be this that is the dream. You are so used to choosing between  dreams you do not see that you have made, at last, the choice between
Tx:18.23  the Holy Spirit has gently laid the real world—the world of happy  dreams from which awaking is so easy and so natural. For as your
Tx:18.23  is so easy and so natural. For as your sleeping and your waking  dreams represent the same wishes in your mind, so do the real world
Tx:18.24  truth to illusion, reality to fantasy, have walked the way of  dreams. For you have gone from waking to sleeping and on and on to a
Tx:18.24  and on and on to a yet deeper sleep. Each dream has led to other  dreams, and every fantasy which seemed to bring a light into the
Tx:18.41  no purpose. For they are all but aspects of the plan to change your  dreams of fear to happy dreams from which you waken easily to
Tx:18.41  all but aspects of the plan to change your dreams of fear to happy  dreams from which you waken easily to knowledge. Put yourself not in
Tx:18.44 Happy  dreams come true, not because they are dreams, but only because
Tx:18.44 Happy dreams come true, not because they are  dreams, but only because they are happy. And so they must be
Tx:18.45  yourself. Nor is your holy relationship a dream. All that remains of  dreams within it is that it is still a special relationship. Yet it
Tx:20.76  means by which the Holy Spirit translates your nightmares into happy  dreams; your wild hallucinations that show you all the fearful
Tx:21.72  dream of power and to act out their dream. How would an army act in  dreams? Any way at all. It could be seen attacking anyone with
Tx:21.72  Any way at all. It could be seen attacking anyone with anything.  Dreams have no reason in them. A flower turns into a poisoned spear,
Tx:22.18  and not imagined, illusions must give way to truth and not to other  dreams that are but equally unreal. This is no difference.
Tx:22.47 See how the means and the material of evil  dreams are nothing. In truth you stand together with nothing in
Tx:23.34  function many times before. In truth it does not function, yet in  dreams, where only shadows play the major roles, it seems most
Tx:24.32  from their dream of death. Yet they hear nothing. They are lost in  dreams of specialness. They hate the call that would awaken them, and
Tx:24.41  the escape from pain—in which you suffer not your condemnation. In  dreams, effect and cause are interchanged, for here the maker of the
Tx:24.49  haunt you in the darkness of the night. He is your savior from the  dreams of fear. He is the healing of your sense of sacrifice and fear
Tx:25.34  nothingness. And all their “evil” thoughts and “sinful” hopes, their  dreams of guilt and merciless revenge, and every wish to hurt and
Tx:26.36  he really is? For this is fact and does not change whatever  dreams he has. Yet can he still imagine he is elsewhere and in
Tx:27.68  and what he sees is separate from his mind. He cannot doubt his  dreams' reality because he does not see the part he plays in making
Tx:27.70  the other possibility of cause if you be not the dreamer of your  dreams. And this is what you choose if you deny the cause of
Tx:27.70  in time. The choice is yours to make between a sleeping death and  dreams of evil or a happy wakening and joy of life. What could you
Tx:27.70  between but life or death, waking or sleeping, peace or war, your  dreams or your reality? Yet if the choice is really given you, then
Tx:27.71  is split between a tiny you and an enormous world, with different  dreams about the truth in you. The gap between reality and dreams
Tx:27.71  different dreams about the truth in you. The gap between reality and  dreams lies not between the dreaming of the world and what you dream
Tx:27.72  alike. Here is the cause of suffering, the space between your  dreams and your reality. The little gap you do not even see, the
Tx:27.73 You are the dreamer of the world of  dreams. No other cause it has, nor ever will. Nothing more fearful
Tx:27.74 Rest in the Holy Spirit and allow His gentle  dreams to take the place of those you dreamed in terror and in fear
Tx:27.74  you dreamed in terror and in fear of death. He brings forgiving  dreams in which the choice is not who is the murderer and who shall
Tx:27.74  is not who is the murderer and who shall be the victim. In the  dreams He brings, there is no murder and there is no death. The

Tx:28.19  shows you who the dreamer is. It teaches you there is a choice of  dreams while you are still asleep, depending on the purpose of your
Tx:28.19  asleep, depending on the purpose of your dreaming. Do you wish for  dreams of healing or for dreams of death? A dream is like a memory in
Tx:28.19  purpose of your dreaming. Do you wish for dreams of healing or for  dreams of death? A dream is like a memory in that it pictures what
Tx:28.19  storehouse with an open door holds all your shreds of memories and  dreams. Yet if you are the dreamer, you perceive this much at least—
Tx:28.20 In  dreams of murder and attack are you the victim in a dying body slain.
Tx:28.20  attack are you the victim in a dying body slain. But in forgiving  dreams is no one asked to be the victim and the sufferer. These are
Tx:28.20  no one asked to be the victim and the sufferer. These are the happy  dreams the miracle exchanges for your own. It does not ask you make
Tx:28.22  a figure in the dream. He gives himself the consequences which he  dreams he gave his brother. And it is but this the dream has put
Tx:28.25  and shows you its effects are what you want. In His forgiving  dreams are the effects of yours undone and hated enemies perceived as
Tx:28.31  of dreaming is the end of fear, and love was never in the world of  dreams. The gap is little. Yet it holds the seeds of pestilence and
Tx:28.34 Count, then, the silver miracles and golden  dreams of happiness as all the treasures you would keep within the
Tx:28.37  instead on you. Thus have they no effects. And you are free of  dreams of pain because you let him be. Unless you help him, you will
Tx:28.37  can be sure of just one thing—that you are evil, for you share in  dreams of fear.
Tx:28.38  certainty right here and now. Refuse to be a part of fearful  dreams whatever form they take, for you will lose identity in them.
Tx:28.38  you effects. You stand apart from them but not apart from him who  dreams them. Thus you separate the dreamer from the dream and join
Tx:28.39  as a mind which brother is to you. He is not brother made by what he  dreams, nor is his body, “hero” of the dream, your brother. It is his
Tx:28.39  him. Your mind and his are joined in brotherhood. His body and his  dreams but seem to make a little gap, where yours have joined with
Tx:28.40 And yet, between your minds there is no gap. To join his  dreams is thus to meet him not because his dreams would separate from
Tx:28.40  is no gap. To join his dreams is thus to meet him not because his  dreams would separate from you. Therefore, release him, merely by
Tx:28.40  release him, merely by your claim on brotherhood and not on  dreams of fear. Let him acknowledge who he is by not supporting his
Tx:28.40  not be released, and you are kept in bondage to his dream. And  dreams of fear will haunt the little gap, inhabited but by illusions
Tx:28.41  figure in his dream instead of dreamer of your own. Identity in  dreams is meaningless because the dreamer and the dream are one. Who
Tx:28.42  seems different because what is the same appears to be unlike. His  dreams are yours because you let them be. But if you took your own
Tx:28.42  your own away would he be free of them and of his own as well. Your  dreams are witnesses to his, and his attest the truth of yours. Yet
Tx:28.42  the truth of yours. Yet if you see there is no truth in yours, his  dreams will [disappear before his eyes], and he will understand what
Tx:28.46 Join not your brother's  dreams but join with him, and where you join His Son, the Father
Tx:28.47  the self from good and keeping evil in. God is the alternate to  dreams of fear. Who shares in them can never share in Him. But who
Tx:28.48 It is the sharing of the evil  dreams of hate and malice, bitterness and death, of sin and
Tx:28.48  because it is the only one you [want] to have. You share no evil  dreams if you forgive the dreamer and perceive that he is not the
Tx:28.52  not depend on this. There is no gap which separates the truth from  dreams and from illusions. Truth has left no room for them in any
Tx:29.20  your savior not because he thinks he is a body. For beyond his  dreams is his reality. But he must learn he is a savior first, before
Tx:29.22  you can let yourself be wakened. You can overlook your brother's  dreams. So perfectly can you forgive him his illusions, he becomes
Tx:29.22  can you forgive him his illusions, he becomes your savior from your  dreams. And as you see him shining in the space of light where God
Tx:29.24  holy are you, that the Son of God can be your savior in the midst of  dreams of desolation and disaster. See how eagerly he comes and steps
Tx:29.25 Do you believe that truth can be but some illusions? They are  dreams because they are not true. Their equal lack of truth becomes
Tx:29.25  the basis for the miracle, which means that you have understood that  dreams are dreams and that escape depends not on the dream, but only
Tx:29.25  the miracle, which means that you have understood that dreams are  dreams and that escape depends not on the dream, but only on awaking.
Tx:29.25  depends not on the dream, but only on awaking. Could it be some  dreams are kept and others wakened from? The choice is not between
Tx:29.25  are kept and others wakened from? The choice is not between which  dreams to keep, but only if you want to live in dreams or to awaken
Tx:29.25  is not between which dreams to keep, but only if you want to live in  dreams or to awaken from them. Thus it is the miracle does not select
Tx:29.25  or to awaken from them. Thus it is the miracle does not select some  dreams to leave untouched by its beneficence. You cannot dream some
Tx:29.25  dreams to leave untouched by its beneficence. You cannot dream some  dreams and wake from some, for you are either sleeping or awake. And
Tx:29.26 The  dreams you think you like would hold you back as much as those in
Tx:29.26  But never is it absent from the dream, for fear is the material of  dreams from which they all are made. Their form can change, but they
Tx:29.28  And does not this become the “reason” your attack is justified? The  dreams you think you like are those in which the functions you have
Tx:29.28  wanted. It is the idea that they exist from which the fears arise.  Dreams are not wanted more or less. They are desired or not. And each
Tx:29.29 How happy would your  dreams become if you were not the one who gave the “proper” role to
Tx:29.29  idea of him, and there is no betrayal but of this. The core of  dreams the Holy Spirit gives is never one of fear. The coverings
Tx:29.29  you a chance to help if this becomes the function of the dream. And  dreams of sadness thus are turned to joy.
Tx:29.30  of the dream as He perceives its function, Who can utilize all  dreams as means to serve the function given Him. Because He loves the
Tx:29.34  that surrounds you dwells in him, and from this quiet come the happy  dreams in which your hands are joined in innocence. These are not
Tx:29.34  hands are joined in innocence. These are not hands that grasp in  dreams of pain. They hold no sword, for they have left their hold on
Tx:29.36  A dream is given you in which you have forgiven him for all his  dreams of death—a dream of hope you share with him instead of
Tx:29.36  a dream of hope you share with him instead of dreaming evil separate  dreams of hate. Why does it seem so hard to share this dream? Because
Tx:29.37  from use by Him Who sees a different function for a dream. When  dreams are shared, they lose the function of attack and separation,
Tx:29.37  was for this that every dream was made. Yet nothing in the world of  dreams remains without the hope of change and betterment, for here is
Tx:29.37  that this is so and seek not the eternal in this world. Forgiving  dreams are means to step aside from dreaming of a world outside
Tx:29.37  dreaming of a world outside yourself. And leading finally beyond all  dreams unto the peace of everlasting life.
Tx:29.48  the future will be like the past and but a series of depressing  dreams in which all idols fail you one by one, and you see death and
Tx:29.49  within by splitting what you are between the two. You choose your  dreams, for they are what you wish, perceived as if it had been given
Tx:29.50 Yet where are  dreams but in a mind asleep? And can a dream succeed in making real
Tx:29.62  has condemned. Judge not, because you make yourself a part of evil  dreams where idols are your “true” identity and your salvation from
Tx:29.65 Nightmares are childish  dreams. The toys have turned against the child who thought he made
Tx:29.67  is joy because that is the purpose which it has. Only forgiving  dreams can enter here, for time is almost over. And the forms which
Tx:29.68 Forgiving  dreams have little need to last. They are not made to separate the
Tx:29.68  to prove the dream is being dreamed by someone else. And in these  dreams a melody is heard which everyone remembers, though he has not
Tx:29.68  song again, he knows he never heard it not. And where is time, when  dreams of judgment have been put away?
Tx:29.70 Forgiving  dreams remind you that you live in safety and have not attacked
Tx:29.70  not attacked yourself. So do your childish terrors melt away and  dreams become a sign that you have made a new beginning, not another
Tx:29.70  not another try to worship idols and to keep attack. Forgiving  dreams are kind to everyone who figures in the dream. And so they
Tx:29.70  in the dream. And so they bring the dreamer full release from  dreams of fear. He does not fear his judgment, for he has judged no
Tx:30.1  time it is attempted. And together will these steps lead you from  dreams of judgment to forgiving dreams and out of pain and fear. They
Tx:30.1  will these steps lead you from dreams of judgment to forgiving  dreams and out of pain and fear. They are not new to you, but they
Tx:30.47  unaffected by the turmoil and the terror of the world, the  dreams of birth and death that here are dreamed, the myriad of forms
Tx:30.53  equally forgotten in attack. God's Son needs no defense against his  dreams. His idols do not threaten him at all. His one mistake is that
Tx:30.55  do not want. And you are asked to let yourself be free of all the  dreams of what you never were and seek no more to substitute the
Tx:30.56  be the substitute for fear. Such is the only rule for happy  dreams. The gap is emptied of the toys of fear, and then its
Tx:30.56  gap is emptied of the toys of fear, and then its unreality is plain.  Dreams are for nothing. And the Son of God can have no need of
Tx:30.70  will be made complete. Here is the real world given in exchange for  dreams of terror. For it is on this forgiveness rests and is but
Tx:30.72  the only change that lets the real world rise to take the place of  dreams of terror. Fear cannot arise unless attack is justified, and
Tx:30.87  must be forever unintelligible. This is not communication. Your dark  dreams are but the senseless, isolated scripts you write in sleep.
Tx:30.87  senseless, isolated scripts you write in sleep. Look not to separate  dreams for meaning. Only dreams of pardon can be shared. They mean
Tx:30.87  you write in sleep. Look not to separate dreams for meaning. Only  dreams of pardon can be shared. They mean the same to both of you.
Tx:30.91  is nothing more than this—a prayer the miracle touch not some  dreams but keep their unreality obscure and give to them reality
Tx:30.92  For you have asked it be withheld from power to heal all  dreams. There is no miracle you cannot have when you desire
Tx:30.93  perfect. Is it this that you would look upon? Then let there be no  dreams about him which you would prefer to seeing this. And you will
Tx:31.13  hurts himself? He has no enemy in truth. And can he be assailed by  dreams?
Tx:31.14  them to the one alternative that is a different choice. But not in  dreams you made that this might be obscured to you.

W1:140.3 The happy  dreams the Holy Spirit brings are different from the dreaming of the
W1:140.3  dreaming of the world, where one can merely dream he is awake. The  dreams forgiveness lets the mind perceive do not induce another form
W1:140.3  perceive do not induce another form of sleep, so that the dreamer  dreams another dream. His happy dreams are heralds of the dawn of
W1:140.3  form of sleep, so that the dreamer dreams another dream. His happy  dreams are heralds of the dawn of truth upon the mind. They lead from

W1:153.5  their presence, needful only of defense by still more fantasies and  dreams by which illusions of his safety comfort him.
W1:153.9 We look past  dreams today and recognize that we need no defense because we are

W1:162.3  the day, at night bringing them with him as he goes to sleep. His  dreams are happy and his rest secure, his safety certain and his body
W1:163.3  taste of dust and ashes in their wake in place of aspirations and of  dreams. But death is counted on. For it will come with certain

W1:185.2 No one can mean these words and not be healed. He cannot play with  dreams nor think he is himself a dream. He cannot make a hell and

W1:185.4  for compromising is the goal of dreaming. Minds cannot unite in  dreams. They merely bargain. And what bargain can give them the peace
W1:185.5 To mean you want the peace of God is to renounce all  dreams. For no one means these words who wants illusions and who
W1:185.5  that another dream would offer nothing more than all the others.  Dreams are one to him. And he has learned their only difference is

W1:185.8  your practice periods to careful searching of your mind to find the  dreams you cherish still. What do you ask for in your heart? Forget
W1:185.8  illusions, for their form is not what matters now. Let not some  dreams be more acceptable, reserving shame and secrecy for others.

W1:188.2  within, for there all vision starts. There is no sight, be it of  dreams or from a truer source, that is not but the shadow of the seen
W1:190.7  idle wishes represent its pains. Your strange desires bring it evil  dreams. Your thoughts of death envelop it in fear, while in your kind
W1:191.11  yourself as weak and frail, with futile hopes and devastated  dreams, born but to die, to weep, and suffer pain, hear this: all
W1:192.3  power to translate into form the wholly formless. What He makes are  dreams, but of a kind so close to waking that the light of day
