C:5.3 | I said | earlier, it is only through union with me that you learn, because it |
C:7.17 | All relationship exists in wholeness. The small examples used | earlier were meant to help you recognize relationship itself, |
C:9.10 | Look upon your body now as you | earlier looked upon the space you occupy. Take away the body's |
C:18.23 | are feelings of love. This would seem to contradict what was said | earlier about the pain experienced from love and your willingness to |
C:20.36 | the complete change in this “if only” from those we have spoken of | earlier—the “if onlys” of fear. If you put half as much faith in |
C:21.2 | about parts and parts are all you see. I remind you of what was said | earlier concerning relationships existing apart from particulars. I |
C:22.18 | two kinds of meaning are being talked about. The first we talked of | earlier as the finding of truth. The second is what we are talking of |
T2:4.7 | your life. Let us look now at your reaction to the idea put forth | earlier of having a calling. |
T2:4.12 | you to what might have been and tells you that if you had but acted | earlier you would have had the life you've dreamed of and maybe it is |
T2:11.1 | who you are and even, in your own terms, a fact of your existence. | Earlier this was pointed out to you so that you would come to accept |
T3:10.7 | way that the simultaneous learning and unlearning that was spoken of | earlier will be able to be realized. You have passed through your |
T3:22.12 | I return you now to what I spoke of | earlier as creative tension, the tension that exists between |
T4:10.13 | As I said | earlier, some will not be willing to move out of the time of |
T4:12.13 | doubt that you would desire it to be? These questions relate to our | earlier discussion of temptations of the human experience. Are you |

D:5.9 | be exposed and the truth will be represented once again. As was said | earlier, this seeing of the truth is the first step as it is the step |
D:6.17 | of the thought reversal that now awaits your acceptance. As I said | earlier, we begin by applying this new attitude to the body. |
D:7.2 | our language somewhat to represent the new and restate what was said | earlier as “What you discover in unity is shared.” Learning does not |

D:17.14 | Let me return you to the questions that were asked of you | earlier, for they are even more pertinent now. Do you think desire |
D:17.15 | to your thinking, that you feel both fulfillment and desire. But my | earlier questions seemed to indicate that once fulfillment was |
D:17.17 | Desire asks for a response. | Earlier it was said that desire asks for a response while want asks |
D:Day2.14 | or even atonement here, for these have been thoroughly discussed | earlier. You have all been through the time of tenderness, the time |
D:Day3.39 | and certainty, a certainty you had previously lacked. When I said | earlier in this chapter that you are most comfortable learning |
D:Day4.36 | We talked | earlier of this as a time of fulfillment and desire. We acknowledged |
D:Day5.23 | Let's return to the image of the healer that was discussed | earlier. While many will heal, all attempts to teach or learn “how |
D:Day6.1 | of Christ-consciousness, or unity, in form. As was said | earlier: To realize the state of becoming is to realize that an |
D:Day8.1 | of acceptance fresh in your minds and hearts, let's return to that | earlier discussion. |
D:Day8.19 | temptation unlike the more pleasant temptations that were spoken of | earlier. This temptation stems from one thing only—from not living |
D:Day9.11 | As was said | earlier, all of your images are false images. Isn't it possible that |
D:Day14.7 | for the self to be the fully invisible or spacious Self described | earlier. What you once stopped and held in a “holding pattern” to |
D:Day19.15 | is contained the key to creation of the new. It was spoken of | earlier as the act of informing and being informed, as the step |
D:Day23.3 | As we spoke | earlier of being a channel, today we speak of being a carrier. Your |
D:Day36.10 | and nothing in relationship to one another. Recall the example used | earlier. There is no difference between all and nothing without |
D:Day37.2 | that you are being does not define who you are any better than the | earlier example of your experiences would define who you are, because |
D:Day40.11 | no form, no conditions, no nature. It simply is. It was said | earlier that being is as Love is. This was a reference to my being, |
D:Day40.11 | being God, as in being human, being takes on attributes. As was said | earlier, this was meant to provide for the individuation process |
D:Day40.13 | Recall what was said | earlier: Christ-consciousness is the awareness of existence through |

W1:43.4 | Three five-minute practice periods are required today, one as | early as possible and another as late as possible. The third may be |
W1:158.2 | to learn to give today? Our lesson yesterday evoked a theme found | early in the text. Experience cannot be shared directly in the way |
M:4.14 | by insanity. No teacher of God but must learn—and fairly | early in his training—that harmfulness completely obliterates his |
M:16.3 | probably the simplest to observe. The saving of time is an essential | early emphasis which, although it remains important throughout the |

T2:3.4 | This was stated | early in A Course of Love and is returned to now for a specific |

D:Day4.1 | Remember here all the “arguments” that I needed to present in the | early part of this Course just to convince you that you are not alone |
D:Day4.7 | as well. Despite the creation story that symbolizes man's journey, | early man was not a being who learned in the same way that you do. |

W1:192.2 | by which untruth can be undone. And who would pardon Heaven? Yet on | earth you need the means to let illusion go. Creation merely waits |
W1:192.3 | It has no meaning here. Forgiveness is the closest it can come to | earth. For being Heaven-borne, it has no form at all. Yet God created |
W1:192.10 | not. His Father's Love for him belongs to you. Your function here on | earth is only to forgive him, that you may accept him back as your |

W2:WS.4 | are budding now, and birds have come to live within their branches. | Earth is being born again in new perception. Night has gone, and we |
W2:292.1 | that we meet. Yet is the ending certain. For God's Will is done in | earth and Heaven. We will seek and we will find according to His |
W2:320.1 | shines upon his mind and lays before it all the strength and love in | earth and Heaven. I am he to whom all this is given. I am he in whom |
W2:WICR.4 | be only to let this memory return, only to let God's Will be done on | earth, only to be restored to sanity, and to be but as God created us. |
W2:326.1 | I have the power to create like You. And as it is in Heaven, so on | earth. Your plan I follow here, and at the end I know that You will |
W2:326.1 | gather Your Effects into the tranquil Heaven of Your Love, where | earth will disappear and separate thoughts unite in glory as the Son |
W2:326.2 | Let us today behold | earth disappear, at first transformed, and then, forgiven, fade |
W2:344.1 | he whom I forgive will give me gifts beyond the worth of anything on | earth. Let my forgiven brothers fill my store with Heaven's |
W2:345.1 | Heaven it is different, for there, there are no needs. But here on | earth, the miracle is closer to Your gifts than any other gift which |
W2:FL.4 | It is our function to remember Him on | earth, as it is given us to be His own completion in reality. So let |
M:11.4 | thought of God turns hell to Heaven merely by being what it is? The | earth bows down before its gracious Presence, and it leans down in |
M:23.5 | an image of his Father. You become the symbol of his Father here on | earth. To you he looks for hope, because in you he sees no limit and |
M:23.6 | No one on | earth can grasp what Heaven is or what its one Creator really means. |
M:26.3 | and dedication and then be maintained for most of the time on | earth. But this is so rare that it cannot be considered a realistic |
M:28.2 | from the light of forgiveness. There is no sorrow still upon the | earth. The joy of Heaven has come upon it. |
M:28.4 | in his freedom is the end of fear. No hidden places now remain on | earth to shelter sick illusions, dreams of fear, and misperceptions |

D:Day10.33 | Remember to embrace your power. The power of love is the cause and | effect that will change the world by returning you, and all your |
D:Day10.34 | is the power of your own Self to create and express the cause and | effect that is the power of love. |
D:Day10.37 | causes. The cause of all these issues is fear. The cause and | effect of love is all that will replace these causes of fear with the |
D:Day15.9 | to be neutral observers. Being neutral observers allowed cause and | effect to occur naturally rather than having your judgment alter |
D:Day15.9 | naturally rather than having your judgment alter natural cause and | effect. This practice will continue to serve you and will not be |
D:Day28.6 | a state of reasonable comfort and will make no choices that will | effect that comfort level. |
D:Day35.2 | being is found the cause for love. Means and end are one. Cause and | effect the same. Fullness of being is thus the answer that you have |
D:Day35.3 | being is different for each one of you because it is the cause and | effect, the means and end of relationship. You have always existed in |
D:Day35.18 | for as has been said many times, means and end are one, cause and | effect the same. You have been “creating” but relating to creation in |
D:Day36.18 | Both at the same time. Both/and rather than either/or. Cause and | Effect. Means and End. You accept the end of choice and the beginning |
D:Day39.46 | and our relationship will bridge the distance and become cause and | effect, means and end. |
D:Day40.1 | who you are to me. Thus giving and receiving are one. Cause and | effect complete. |

Tx:10.40 | reality. The next step is obviously to recognize that what has no | effects does not exist. Laws do not operate in a vacuum, and what |
Tx:10.43 | regard a delusional system without fear, for it cannot have any | effects if its source is not true. Fear becomes more obviously |

Tx:22.2 | The holiness of your relationship forgives you both, undoing the | effects of what you both believed and saw. And with their going is |

Tx:24.36 | it is quite obvious. The purpose of attack is in the mind, and its | effects are felt but where it is. Nor is mind limited; so must it |
Tx:25.33 | from what you wish. It is your wish that makes it what it is in its | effects on you. Because you chose it as a means to gain these same |

Tx:25.78 | vengeance not with justice? Are you willing to be released from all | effects of sin? You cannot answer this until you see all that the |
Tx:26.49 | where all reality must be. Ideas leave not their source, and their | effects but seem to be apart from them. Ideas are of the mind. What |
Tx:26.50 | answer lies where the belief in sin must be, for only there can its | effects be utterly undone and without cause. Perception's laws must |
Tx:26.53 | no defense to make it true. Illusions have no witnesses and no | effects. Who looks on them is but deceived. Forgiveness is the only |
Tx:26.59 | in that you still feel guilty, though without understanding why. | Effects are seen as separate from their source and seem to be beyond |
Tx:26.61 | separate. The healing of effect without the cause can merely shift | effects to other forms. And this is not release. God's Son could |
Tx:26.61 | by loss of any kind. A tiny sacrifice is just the same in its | effects as is the whole idea of sacrifice. If loss in any form is |
Tx:26.64 | is the answer to attack of any kind. So is attack deprived of its | effects, and hate is answered in the name of love. To you to whom it |
Tx:26.70 | of loss is great between the time its purpose is made yours and its | effects will come to you. In this form is the error still obscured |
Tx:26.71 | Who can feel desolation except now? A future cause as yet has no | effects. And therefore must it be that if you fear, there is a |
Tx:26.72 | it as yet, and what will happen has as yet no cause. Who can predict | effects without a cause? And who could fear effects unless he thought |
Tx:26.72 | cause. Who can predict effects without a cause? And who could fear | effects unless he thought they had been caused and judged |
Tx:26.72 | what is here and now. Yet only here and now its cause must be if its | effects already have been judged as fearful. And in overlooking this, |
Tx:26.73 | purpose the Holy Spirit brought to your relationship has in it all | effects that you will see. They can be looked at now. Why wait till |
Tx:26.74 | if it does? Its cause is here if it appears at all. Why are not its | effects apparent then? Why in the future? And you seek to be content |
Tx:26.76 | death? Delay is senseless, and the “reasoning” which would maintain | effects of present cause must be delayed until a future time is |
Tx:26.86 | senseless—equally without a cause or consequence and cannot have | effects of any kind. Their Presence is obscured by any veil which |
Tx:27.6 | that nothing which his madness bid him do was ever done or ever had | effects of any kind; that no reproach he laid upon his heart was ever |
Tx:27.16 | guilt? Sins are beyond forgiveness just because they would entail | effects which cannot be undone and overlooked entirely. In their |
Tx:27.19 | prove all suffering is but a vain imagining, a foolish wish with no | effects. Your health is a result of your desire to see your brother |
Tx:27.36 | clear you cannot answer anything at all, for conflict has no limited | effects. Yet if God gave an answer, there must be a way in which your |
Tx:27.46 | of peace into the battleground and demonstrates that war has no | effects. For all the hurt that war has sought to bring, the broken |
Tx:27.53 | attack will stay with you forever. Your healing will be one of its | effects, as will your brother's. Everywhere you go will you behold |
Tx:27.53 | your brother's. Everywhere you go will you behold its multiplied | effects. Yet all the witnesses that you behold will be far less than |
Tx:27.58 | are called. It merely proves that what they represent has no | effects. And this it proves because its own effects have come to take |
Tx:27.58 | they represent has no effects. And this it proves because its own | effects have come to take their place. It matters not the name by |
Tx:27.61 | world. The holy instant will replace all sin if you but carry its | effects with you. And no one will elect to suffer more. What better |
Tx:27.66 | a cause. Nor will the cause be changed by seeing it apart from its | effects. The cause produces the effects which then bear witness to |
Tx:27.66 | by seeing it apart from its effects. The cause produces the | effects which then bear witness to the cause and not themselves. |
Tx:27.66 | bear witness to the cause and not themselves. Look, then, beyond | effects. It is not here the cause of suffering and sin must lie. And |
Tx:27.70 | of which is clearly recognized? Who could be free to choose between | effects when only one is seen as up to him? |
Tx:27.80 | real? The instant that he sees them as they are, they have no more | effects on him because he understands he gave them their effects by |
Tx:27.80 | no more effects on him because he understands he gave them their | effects by causing them and making them seem real. |
Tx:27.81 | How willing are you to escape | effects of all the dreams the world has ever had? Is it your wish to |
Tx:27.82 | become a serious idea and possible of both accomplishment and real | effects. Together, we can laugh them both away and understand that |
Tx:27.84 | but without their trifling cause. Without the cause do its | effects seem serious and sad indeed. Yet they but follow. And it is |
Tx:27.85 | laughter does the Holy Spirit perceive the cause and looks not to | effects. How else could He correct your error, who have overlooked |
Tx:27.85 | on its foolish cause and laugh with Him a while. You judge | effects, but He has judged their cause. And by His judgment are |
Tx:27.85 | effects, but He has judged their cause. And by His judgment are | effects removed. Perhaps you come in tears, but hear Him say, “My |
Tx:28.1 | long since gone, but being kept in memory, appears to have immediate | effects. This world was over long ago. The thoughts that made it are |

T3:4.1 | only way to learn a new curriculum. This Course will not call you to | effort of any kind. It will not tell you to leave behind your |
T3:16.2 | give anything else or anything less. You do not need to give your | effort to this calling. You do not need to struggle to create the new |
T3:16.3 | from the old. If this were possible, you would indeed be called to | effort and to struggle, to planning and to a state of knowing that |
T3:16.3 | without changing their nature in the slightest measure. All the | effort of the ego has not brought an end to suffering or strife, nor |

T4:2.12 | and that those who follow in time will do so more easily, with less | effort, and with even greater success. They may consider themselves |

Tx:4.8 | You believe that if you allow no change to enter into your | ego, your Soul will find peace. This profound confusion is possible |

Tx:4.8 | Soul can strengthen the ego or reduce the conflict within it. The | ego is a contradiction. Man's self and God's Self are in |

Tx:4.10 | really healing the level-split. You have dreamed of a separated | ego, and you have believed in a world which rests upon it. This is |
Tx:4.11 | pupil or patient if they succeed. It is impossible to convince the | ego of this because it goes against all of its own laws. But remember |
Tx:4.12 | It is natural enough for the | ego to try to protect itself once you have made it, but it is not |
Tx:4.12 | for you to want to obey its laws unless you believe in them. The | ego cannot make this choice because of the nature of its origin. |
Tx:4.12 | cannot clash at all. If you perceive a teacher as merely a “larger | ego,” you will be afraid because to enlarge an ego is to |
Tx:4.12 | merely a “larger ego,” you will be afraid because to enlarge an | ego is to increase separation anxiety. I will teach with you and |

Tx:4.15 | He is well pleased. Do not let your ego dispute this because the | ego cannot know what is as far beyond its reach as you are. |
Tx:4.17 | The word “inevitable” is fearful to the | ego but joyous to the Soul. God is inevitable, and you cannot |
Tx:4.17 | and you cannot avoid Him any more than He can avoid you. The | ego is afraid of the Soul's joy because, once you have experienced |
Tx:4.17 | you have experienced it, you will withdraw all protection from the | ego and become totally without the investment in fear. Your |
Tx:4.17 | is great now because fear is a witness to the separation, and your | ego rejoices when you witness to it. Leave it behind! Do not listen |
Tx:4.18 | to others, and do not accept such a picture of them yourselves. The | ego has built a shabby and unsheltering home for you because it |
Tx:4.18 | certain. God is as incapable of creating the perishable as the | ego is of making the eternal. |
Tx:4.19 | everything for the salvation of both. Humility is a lesson for the | ego, not for the Soul. The Soul is beyond humility because it |
Tx:4.20 | I will substitute for your | ego if you wish but never for your Soul. A father can safely leave |
Tx:4.20 | the child's origin. The brother can protect the child's body and his | ego, which are very closely related, but he does not confuse |
Tx:4.20 | although the child may. I can be entrusted with your body and your | ego simply because this enables you not to be concerned with them |
Tx:4.25 | Each man makes one | ego for himself, although it is subject to enormous variation because |
Tx:4.25 | as when it involves physical presence. Thinking about another | ego is as effective in changing relative perception as is physical |
Tx:4.25 | interaction. There could be no better example of the fact that the | ego is an idea, though not a reality-based thought. |
Tx:4.26 | Your own present state is a good example of how the mind made the | ego. You do have knowledge at times, but when you throw it away, it |
Tx:4.27 | he regards as a very real part of himself. Man reacts to his | ego much as God does to His Souls: with love, protection, and great |
Tx:4.27 | as timeless as he is. The question is not how man responds to his | ego, but what he believes he is. |
Tx:4.28 | Belief is an | ego function, and as long as your origin is open to belief at all, |
Tx:4.28 | your origin is open to belief at all, you are regarding it from an | ego viewpoint. [That is why the Bible quotes me as saying “Ye believe |
Tx:4.28 | in me.” Belief does apply to me, because I am the teacher of the | ego.] When teaching is no longer necessary, you will merely know |
Tx:4.28 | Belief that there is another way is the loftiest idea of which | ego thinking is capable. That is because it contains a hint of |

Tx:4.32 | The | ego literally lives by comparisons. This means that equality is |

Tx:4.39 | That is why psychologists are concentrating increasingly on the | ego in an attempt to unify their clearly unrelated data. It need |
Tx:4.40 | way of trying to impose order on chaos. We have already credited the | ego with considerable ingenuity, though not with creativeness. It |
Tx:4.41 | have not understood it is because it is not understandable to the | ego, which interprets it as if something outside is inside, and this |
Tx:4.41 | a state of mind. The Christ Mind wills from the Soul, not from the | ego, and the Christ Mind is yours. |
Tx:4.42 | which your Soul created. It has not ceased to create because your | ego has set you on the road of perception. Your Soul's creations are |
Tx:4.42 | Your Soul's creations are no more fatherless than you are. Your | ego and your Soul will never be co-creators, but your Soul and your |
Tx:4.43 | The Kingdom is perfectly united and perfectly protected, and the | ego will not prevail against it. Amen. |
Tx:4.45 | In its characteristically upside-down way, the | ego has taken the impulses from the superconscious and perceives them |
Tx:4.45 | and perceives them as if they arise in the unconscious. The | ego judges what is to be accepted, and the impulses from the |
Tx:4.45 | to it because they clearly point to the nonexistence of the | ego itself. The ego therefore experiences threat and not only censors |
Tx:4.45 | they clearly point to the nonexistence of the ego itself. The | ego therefore experiences threat and not only censors but also |
Tx:4.46 | most lofty ones from awareness because both are threatening to the | ego and, being concerned primarily with its own preservation in the |
Tx:4.46 | primarily with its own preservation in the face of threat, the | ego perceives them as the same. The threat-value of the lofty is |
Tx:4.46 | same. The threat-value of the lofty is actually much greater to the | ego because the pull of God Himself can hardly be equated with the |
Tx:4.46 | the pull of human appetites. By perceiving them as the same, the | ego attempts to save itself from being swept away, as it would surely |
Tx:4.47 | is why the basic conflict between love and fear is unconscious; the | ego cannot tolerate either and represses both by resorting to |
Tx:4.47 | false in your unconscious so it can break through the barriers the | ego has set up and shine into your minds. Against our united |
Tx:4.47 | set up and shine into your minds. Against our united strength, the | ego cannot prevail. |
Tx:4.48 | It should be apparent to you by now why the | ego regards the Soul as its “enemy.” The ego arose from the |
Tx:4.48 | to you by now why the ego regards the Soul as its “enemy.” The | ego arose from the separation, and its continued existence depends on |
Tx:4.48 | separation. Having reduced the Soul impulses to the unconscious, the | ego has to offer you some sort of reward for maintaining this belief. |
Tx:4.48 | experienced the revelation of this can ever fully believe in the | ego again. How can its meager offering to you prevail against the |
Tx:4.49 | does not love you. Being made out of the denial of the Father, the | ego has no allegiance to its own maker. You cannot conceive of the |
Tx:4.49 | you made it. No human love is without this ambivalence, and since no | ego has experienced love without ambivalence, the concept is beyond |
Tx:4.50 | is a kind of experience which is so different from anything the | ego can offer that you will never recover. The word “recover” is used |
Tx:4.50 | you but for which you must ask. This is not a condition as the | ego sets conditions. It is the glorious condition of what you are. |
Tx:4.54 | In your own unconscious, deeply repressed by the | ego, is the declaration of your release. God has given you |
Tx:4.54 | God has given you everything. This is the one fact that means the | ego does not exist and which therefore makes it profoundly afraid. In |

Tx:4.56 | egos, and you do not seek the Face of God. The glass in which the | ego seeks to see its face is dark indeed. How can it maintain the |
Tx:4.57 | about some Soul that God created and are perceiving images your | ego makes in a darkened glass. Think honestly what you have thought |
Tx:4.58 | one with God's. Denying this and thinking otherwise has held your | ego together but has literally split your mind. As a loving brother, |
Tx:4.60 | know that all anxiety comes from the capriciousness of the | ego and need not be. You can be as vigilant against the ego's |
Tx:4.61 | When you feel guilty, know that the | ego has indeed violated the laws of God, but you have not. Leave |
Tx:4.61 | violated the laws of God, but you have not. Leave the sins of the | ego to me. That is what Atonement is for. But until you change your |
Tx:4.61 | Atonement is for. But until you change your mind about those your | ego has hurt, the Atonement cannot release you. As long as you feel |
Tx:4.61 | the Atonement cannot release you. As long as you feel guilty, your | ego is in command because only the ego can experience guilt. This |
Tx:4.61 | As long as you feel guilty, your ego is in command because only the | ego can experience guilt. This need not be. |
Tx:4.62 | Watch your mind for the temptations of the | ego and do not be deceived by it. Know it offers you nothing. When |
Tx:4.62 | Yet you are not sufficiently vigilant against the demands of the | ego to disengage yourself. This need not be. |
Tx:4.63 | The disheartened are useless to themselves and to me, but only the | ego can be disheartened. Have you really considered how many |
Tx:4.64 | Your mind and mine can unite in shining your | ego away and releasing the strength of God into everything you think |
Tx:4.64 | defense, can be used to attack or protect, to hurt or to heal. The | ego should be brought to your judgment and found wanting there. |
Tx:4.64 | own allegiance, protection, and love, it cannot exist. Judge your | ego truly, and you must withdraw allegiance, protection, and love |
Tx:4.65 | His Mind still shines on you and must shine through you. Your | ego cannot prevent Him from shining on you, but it can prevent |
Tx:4.67 | with your higher mind whether you are asleep or awake, just as your | ego does with your lower mind. I am your vigilance in this, because |
Tx:4.69 | in the ego's judgment. Control is a central factor in what the | ego permits into consciousness and one to which it devotes its |
Tx:4.69 | a balanced mind holds together. Its control is unconscious. The | ego is further off balance by keeping its primary motivation |
Tx:4.69 | raising control rather than sensible judgment to predominance. The | ego has every reason to do this according to the thought system which |
Tx:4.69 | which it serves. Sane judgment would inevitably judge against the | ego and must be obliterated by the ego in the interest of its |
Tx:4.69 | inevitably judge against the ego and must be obliterated by the | ego in the interest of its self-preservation. |
Tx:4.70 | must be insane. Yet this demented state is essential to the | ego, which judges only in terms of threat or non-threat to itself. |
Tx:4.70 | idea of God is at least logical, since this idea does dispel the | ego. Fear of dissolution from the Higher Source, then, makes some |
Tx:4.70 | some sense in ego-terms. But fear of the body, with which the | ego identifies so closely, is more blatantly senseless. |
Tx:4.71 | by its own election. It is the only identification with which the | ego feels safe, because the body's vulnerability is its own best |
Tx:4.71 | argument that you cannot be of God. This is the belief that the | ego sponsors eagerly. Yet the ego hates the body because it does not |
Tx:4.71 | be of God. This is the belief that the ego sponsors eagerly. Yet the | ego hates the body because it does not accept the idea that the body |
Tx:4.71 | Here is where the mind becomes actually dazed. Being told by the | ego that it is really part of the body and that the body is its |
Tx:4.72 | the mind asks, “Where can I go for protection?” to which the | ego replies, “Turn to me.” The mind, and not without cause, reminds |
Tx:4.72 | replies, “Turn to me.” The mind, and not without cause, reminds the | ego that it has itself insisted that it is identified with the |
Tx:4.72 | the body, so there is no point in turning to it for protection. The | ego has no real answer to this because there is none, but it does |
Tx:4.74 | want to learn are chosen because their value will not last. The | ego thinks it is an advantage not to commit itself to anything that |
Tx:4.74 | must come from God. Eternalness is the one function which the | ego has tried to develop but has systematically failed. It may |
Tx:4.74 | has systematically failed. It may surprise you to learn that had the | ego wished to do so it could have made the eternal because, as a |
Tx:4.74 | decision to do this, rather than the ability to do it, is what the | ego cannot tolerate. That is because the decision, from which the |
Tx:4.74 | involve accurate perception, a state of clarity which the | ego, fearful of being judged truly, must avoid. |
Tx:4.75 | dilemma are peculiar, but no more so than the dilemma itself. The | ego has reacted characteristically here as elsewhere because mental |
Tx:4.75 | as elsewhere because mental illness, which is always a form of | ego involvement, is not a matter of reliability as much as of |
Tx:4.75 | is not a matter of reliability as much as of validity. The | ego compromises with the issue of the eternal, just as it does with |
Tx:4.76 | its value would decrease, and his own purpose would be defeated. The | ego has countenanced some strange compromises with the idea of the |
Tx:4.77 | with problems set up to be incapable of solution are also favorite | ego devices for impeding the strong-willed from making real learning |
Tx:4.77 | circle and carrying pi to infinity are good examples. A more recent | ego attempt is particularly noteworthy. The idea of preserving the |
Tx:4.77 | suspension, thus giving it the kind of limited immortality which the | ego can tolerate, is among its more recent appeals to the mind. It is |
Tx:4.79 | Psychologists are in a good position to realize that the | ego is capable of making and accepting as real some very distorted |
Tx:4.80 | Such relatively minor confusions of the | ego are not among its more profound misassociations, although they do |
Tx:4.82 | mind can grasp. “A little knowledge” is not dangerous except to the | ego. Vaguely it senses threat, and being unable to realize that “a |
Tx:4.82 | phrase since “all” and “a little” in this context are the same, the | ego decides that, since “all” is impossible, the fear does not lie |
Tx:4.82 | there. “A little,” however, is a scarcity concept, and this the | ego understands well. “A little,” then, is perceived as the real |
Tx:4.83 | The essential thing to remember is that the | ego does not recognize the real source of its perceived threat, and |
Tx:4.83 | of its perceived threat, and if you associate yourself with the | ego, you do not perceive the whole situation as it is. Only your |
Tx:4.83 | the whole situation as it is. Only your allegiance to it gives the | ego any power over you. |
Tx:4.84 | We have spoken of the | ego as if it were a separate thing acting on its own. This was |
Tx:4.85 | The | ego is nothing more than a part of your belief about yourselves. |
Tx:4.87 | The | ego cannot withstand the conditioning process because the process |
Tx:4.87 | as eternal. Since this recognition is made by you and not the | ego, the recognition itself establishes that you and your ego |
Tx:4.87 | the ego, the recognition itself establishes that you and your | ego cannot be identical. You may believe that you have already |
Tx:4.87 | fact that you are preoccupied with the idea of escaping from the | ego shows this. |
Tx:4.88 | You cannot escape from the | ego by humbling it or controlling it or punishing it. Remember that |
Tx:4.88 | by humbling it or controlling it or punishing it. Remember that the | ego and the Soul do not know each other. The separated mind cannot |
Tx:4.88 | separate thing, but because you want to believe that you are. The | ego is a device for maintaining this belief, but it is still only |
Tx:4.89 | have been chosen to live so as to demonstrate that you are not an | ego. I repeat that I do not choose God's channels wrongly. The Holy |
Tx:4.93 | I am conditioning you to associate misery with the | ego and joy with the Soul. You have conditioned yourselves the other |
Tx:4.93 | still free to choose, but can you really want the rewards of the | ego in the presence of the rewards of God? |
Tx:4.94 | is concrete. The concrete part is the same part that believes in the | ego because the ego depends on the specific. It is the part that |
Tx:4.94 | concrete part is the same part that believes in the ego because the | ego depends on the specific. It is the part that believes your |
Tx:4.95 | Everything the | ego perceives is a separate whole, without the relationships that |
Tx:4.95 | a separate whole, without the relationships that imply being. The | ego is thus against communication except in so far as it is |
Tx:4.95 | rather than to abolish it. The communication system of the | ego is based on its own thought system, as is everything else it |
Tx:4.95 | all forms of perceived demands may be classified or judged by the | ego as coercive communication which must be disrupted, the response |
Tx:4.100 | hardly means that you should tell Him how wonderful He is. He has no | ego with which to accept such thanks and no perception with which to |
Tx:4.103 | emphasizes the body, while the vocational orientation stresses the | ego. The “team” approach generally leads more to confusion than to |
Tx:4.104 | The | ego is likely to fear broken bodies because it cannot tolerate them. |
Tx:4.104 | is likely to fear broken bodies because it cannot tolerate them. The | ego cannot tolerate ego weakness either without ambivalence because |
Tx:4.104 | bodies because it cannot tolerate them. The ego cannot tolerate | ego weakness either without ambivalence because it is afraid of its |
Tx:4.104 | well as the weakness of its chosen home. When it is threatened, the | ego blocks your natural impulse to help, placing you under the strain |
Tx:4.104 | of divided will. You may then be tempted to withdraw to allow your | ego to recover and to gain enough strength to be helpful again on a |
Tx:4.104 | to be helpful again on a basis limited enough not to threaten your | ego but too limited to give you joy. Those with broken bodies are |
Tx:4.104 | you joy. Those with broken bodies are often looked down on by the | ego because of its belief that nothing but a perfect body is worthy |
Tx:5.6 | one of ideas, the whole belief in the false association which the | ego makes between giving and losing is gone. |
Tx:5.19 | and the separation began at the same time. When man made the | ego, God placed in him the call to joy. This call is so strong that |
Tx:5.19 | God placed in him the call to joy. This call is so strong that the | ego always dissolves at its sound. That is why you can choose to |
Tx:5.35 | ego's viewpoint you are undertaking an ego-alien journey with the | ego as guide. This is bound to produce fear. |
Tx:5.36 | Delay is of the | ego, because time is its concept. Delay is obviously a time idea. |
Tx:5.36 | We have said before that the Holy Spirit is God's Answer to the | ego. Everything of which the Holy Spirit reminds you is in direct |
Tx:5.36 | opposed. The Holy Spirit has the task of undoing what the | ego has made. He undoes it in the same realm of discourse in which |
Tx:5.36 | has made. He undoes it in the same realm of discourse in which the | ego itself operates, or the mind would be unable to understand the |
Tx:5.37 | of the mind is not understandable to another. So it is with the | ego and the Soul, with time and eternity. Eternity is an idea of God, |
Tx:5.37 | God, so the Soul understands it perfectly. Time is a belief of the | ego, so the lower mind, which is the ego's domain, accepts it |
Tx:5.37 | The literal nature of this statement does not mean anything to the | ego, which interprets it at best to mean “don't worry about the |
Tx:5.38 | The Holy Spirit is the Mediator between the interpretations of the | ego and the knowledge of the Soul. His ability to deal with symbols |
Tx:5.38 | He can thus perform the function of reinterpreting what the | ego makes, not by destruction but by understanding. Understanding |
Tx:5.39 | that the Holy Spirit sees. This vision invariably frightens the | ego because it is so calm. Peace is the ego's greatest enemy because, |
Tx:5.39 | interpretation of reality, war is the guarantee of its survival. The | ego becomes strong in strife. If you believe there is strife, you |
Tx:5.39 | danger has entered your mind. The idea itself is an appeal to the | ego. |
Tx:5.40 | The Holy Spirit is as vigilant as the | ego to the call of danger, opposing it with His strength, just as the |
Tx:5.40 | to the call of danger, opposing it with His strength, just as the | ego welcomes it with all its might. The Holy Spirit counters this |
Tx:5.41 | The | ego is the symbol of separation, just as the Holy Spirit is the |
Tx:5.41 | attempts to conceal this part, it is still much stronger than the | ego, even though the ego does not recognize it. The Holy Spirit |
Tx:5.41 | this part, it is still much stronger than the ego, even though the | ego does not recognize it. The Holy Spirit recognizes it perfectly, |
Tx:5.42 | peace. If peace is eternal, you are at home only in eternity. The | ego made the world as it perceives it, but the Holy Spirit, the |
Tx:5.42 | perceives it, but the Holy Spirit, the reinterpreter of what the | ego made, sees it only as a teaching device for bringing you home. |
Tx:5.47 | good was ever created and therefore cannot be protected. What the | ego makes, it keeps to itself, and so it is without strength. Its |
Tx:5.48 | a little sharper now. Neurotic guilt feelings are a device of the | ego for “atoning” without sharing and for asking pardon without |
Tx:5.48 | “atoning” without sharing and for asking pardon without change. The | ego never calls for real Atonement and cannot tolerate |
Tx:5.50 | and the Sonship is one, you cannot be limited to the “self” the | ego sees. Every loving thought held in any part of the Sonship |
Tx:5.50 | is loving. Sharing is God's way of creating and also yours. Your | ego can keep you in exile from the Kingdom, but in the Kingdom |
Tx:5.51 | to receive my messages as I give them without interference by the | ego, so we can clarify an earlier point. We said that you will one |
Tx:5.53 | strengthen them. The union of the Sonship is its protection. The | ego cannot prevail against the Kingdom because it is united, and |
Tx:5.53 | cannot prevail against the Kingdom because it is united, and the | ego fades away and is undone in the presence of the attraction of the |
Tx:5.59 | personally meaningful if the ego's use of guilt is clarified. The | ego has a purpose, just as the Holy Spirit has. The ego's purpose is |
Tx:5.60 | guilt and must give rise to joy. This makes it invulnerable to the | ego because its peace is unassailable. It is invulnerable to |
Tx:5.60 | fear is divisive because it obeys the law of division. If the | ego is the symbol of the separation, it is also the symbol of guilt. |
Tx:5.60 | on God. This is a totally meaningless concept except to the | ego, but do not underestimate the power of the ego's belief in it. |
Tx:5.61 | The | ego is the part of the mind which believes in division. How can |
Tx:5.61 | problem as involving the concept of usurping God's power. The | ego believes that this is what you did because it believes it is |
Tx:5.61 | it is you. It follows, then, that if you identify with the | ego, you must perceive yourself as guilty. Whenever you respond to |
Tx:5.61 | you must perceive yourself as guilty. Whenever you respond to your | ego, you will experience guilt and you will fear punishment. The |
Tx:5.61 | ego, you will experience guilt and you will fear punishment. The | ego is quite literally a fearful thought. |
Tx:5.62 | of attacking God may be to the sane mind, never forget that the | ego is not sane. It represents a delusional system, and it speaks |
Tx:5.63 | only your acceptance of it that makes it real. If you enthrone the | ego in it, the fact that you have accepted it or allowed it to enter |
Tx:5.64 | The | ego does not perceive sin as a lack of love. It perceives sin as a |
Tx:5.64 | attempt to remedy the situation. And you will succeed. The | ego regards this as doom, but you must learn to regard it as |
Tx:5.65 | It might be better to say that it is a form of magical solution. The | ego believes that by punishing itself it will mitigate the |
Tx:5.66 | The | ego cannot oppose the laws of God any more than you can, but it |
Tx:5.67 | The Holy Spirit, like the | ego, is a decision. Together they constitute all the alternatives |
Tx:5.67 | all the alternatives which the mind can accept and obey. The | ego and the Holy Spirit are the only choices open to you. God |
Tx:5.72 | peace. My role is only to unchain your will and make it free. Your | ego cannot accept this freedom and will oppose your free decision at |
Tx:5.73 | of the same thing simultaneously, or almost simultaneously, for the | ego always speaks first. Alternate interpretations were unnecessary |
Tx:5.73 | first one was made, and speaking itself was unnecessary before the | ego was made. |
Tx:5.74 | The | ego speaks in judgment and the Holy Spirit reverses its decisions, |
Tx:5.74 | on a complete fallacy which they were made to uphold. Nothing the | ego perceives is interpreted correctly. Not only does it cite |
Tx:5.74 | as a witness for itself. The Bible is a fearful thing to the | ego because of its prejudiced judgment. Perceiving it as fearful, it |
Tx:5.75 | to see how the ego's interpretations have misled you. A favorite | ego quotation is “As ye sow, so shall ye reap.” Another is “Vengeance |
Tx:5.77 | fathers unto the third and fourth generation,” as interpreted by the | ego, is particularly vicious. It is used, in fact, as an attempt to |
Tx:5.77 | thought must be undone. Even the word “undone” is fearful to the | ego, which interprets “I am undone” as “I am destroyed.” |
Tx:5.78 | The | ego will not be destroyed because it is part of your thought, but |
Tx:5.78 | you from fear. The part of your thought which you have given to the | ego will merely return to the Kingdom, where your whole mind |
Tx:5.78 | merely return to the Kingdom, where your whole mind belongs. The | ego is a form of arrest, but arrest is merely delay. It does not |
Tx:5.78 | delay. It does not involve the concept of punishment, although the | ego welcomes that interpretation. You can delay the completion of |
Tx:6.13 | to demonstrate that the most outrageous assault as judged by the | ego did not matter. As the world judges these things, but not as |
Tx:6.23 | systems. As such, it [is] the perfect symbol of conflict between the | ego and the Son of God. [It was as much intrapersonal as |
Tx:6.27 | is to keep the separation going. It is solely a device of the | ego to make you feel different from your brothers and separated |
Tx:6.27 | you feel different from your brothers and separated from them. The | ego justifies this on the wholly spurious grounds that it makes you |
Tx:6.28 | The | ego uses projection only to distort your perception both of |
Tx:6.28 | that there is another use of projection. Every ability of the | ego has a better counterpart, because its abilities are directed by |
Tx:6.28 | by the mind which has a better Voice. The Holy Spirit as well as the | ego utilizes projection, but since their goals are opposed, so is the |
Tx:6.31 | knowledge, you will ultimately meet it and know it. The | ego would prefer to believe that this meeting is impossible, yet it |
Tx:6.34 | then, is the recognition that the separation never occurred. The | ego cannot prevail against this because it is an explicit statement |
Tx:6.35 | The | ego can accept the idea that return is necessary because it can so |
Tx:6.37 | and projection as the Holy Spirit uses it is very simple. The | ego projects to exclude and therefore to deceive. The Holy Spirit |
Tx:6.38 | only by perceiving Him impartially can you perceive Him at all. The | ego is legion, but the Holy Spirit is One. No darkness abides |
Tx:6.39 | natural talent. The word “knows” is correct here, even though the | ego does not know and is not concerned with being at all. |
Tx:6.40 | is never threatened. Your Godlike mind can never be defiled. The | ego never was and never will be part of it, but through the ego you |
Tx:6.40 | The ego never was and never will be part of it, but through the | ego you can hear and teach and learn what is not true. From this, |
Tx:6.43 | salvation lies in teaching the exact opposite of everything the | ego believes. This is how you will learn the truth that will set |
Tx:6.45 | Remember that the Holy Spirit is the Answer, not the question. The | ego always speaks first because it is capricious and does not mean |
Tx:6.45 | He has brought you home and you no longer need His guidance. The | ego does not regard itself as part of you. Herein lies its primary |
Tx:6.46 | is why attack within the Kingdom is impossible. You made the | ego without love, and so it does not love you. You could not remain |
Tx:6.46 | is love, you believe that you are without it. This enables the | ego to regard itself as separate and outside its maker, thus |
Tx:6.46 | mind that believes you are separate and outside the Mind of God. The | ego, then, raised the first question that was ever asked, but one |
Tx:6.47 | The | ego has never answered any questions since, although it has raised |
Tx:6.47 | it has raised a great many. The most inventive activities of the | ego have never done more than obscure the question, because you |
Tx:6.47 | than obscure the question, because you have the answer and the | ego is afraid of you. You cannot understand the conflict until you |
Tx:6.47 | the conflict until you fully understand one basic fact that the | ego does not know. The Holy Spirit does not speak first, but He |
Tx:6.48 | The | ego cannot hear the Holy Spirit, but it does believe that part of |
Tx:6.48 | it. Unless you do believe it you will not side with it, and the | ego feels badly in need of allies though not of brothers. |
Tx:6.48 | of brothers. Perceiving something alien to itself in your mind, the | ego turns to the body, not the mind, as its ally, because the body |
Tx:6.49 | The | ego and the body conspire against your minds, and because the ego |
Tx:6.49 | The ego and the body conspire against your minds, and because the | ego realizes that its “enemy” can end them both merely by knowing |
Tx:6.49 | perception of all if you consider what it really involves. The | ego, which is not real, attempts to persuade the mind, which is |
Tx:6.50 | the one answer of the Holy Spirit to all the questions which the | ego raises. You are a Child of God, a priceless part of His Kingdom, |
Tx:6.54 | are therefore helpless. This is the kind of “reasoning” which the | ego engages in, but God, Who knows that His creations are perfect, |
Tx:6.61 | When your body and your | ego and your dreams are gone, you will know that you will last |
Tx:6.61 | by not willing at all. Like any other impossible solution which the | ego attempts, it will not work. |
Tx:6.62 | device for you. Again as always, He re-interprets what the | ego uses as an argument for separation into a demonstration |
Tx:6.65 | into knowledge. [You do not lose what you communicate.] The | ego uses the body for attack, for pleasure, and for pride. The |
Tx:6.73 | first lesson is the hardest to learn. Still strongly aware of the | ego in himself and responding primarily to the ego in others, he is |
Tx:6.73 | strongly aware of the ego in himself and responding primarily to the | ego in others, he is being taught to react to both as if what he |
Tx:6.74 | Upside-down as always, the | ego perceives the first lesson as insane. In fact this is its only |
Tx:6.76 | insanity. Only one is true, and therefore only one is real. The | ego tries to persuade you that it is up to you to decide which |
Tx:6.83 | must remember, however, is that what the Holy Spirit rejects, the | ego accepts. This is because they are in fundamental disagreement |
Tx:6.87 | it. We said already that you can be as vigilant against the | ego as for it. This lesson teaches not only that you can be, but |
Tx:6.91 | to you. This is why you must be vigilant on God's behalf. The | ego speaks against His creation and therefore does engender |
Tx:7.4 | The | ego demands reciprocal rights because it is competitive rather than |
Tx:7.13 | The term “intrapersonal” is an | ego term, because “personal” implies “of one person” and not of |
Tx:7.21 | the term “abilities” in the plural, because abilities began with the | ego, which perceived them as potentials for excelling. This is how |
Tx:7.21 | which perceived them as potentials for excelling. This is how the | ego still perceives them and uses them. |
Tx:7.22 | The | ego does not want to teach everyone all it has learned, because |
Tx:7.22 | really learn at all. The Holy Spirit teaches you to use what the | ego has made to teach the opposite of what the ego has learned. The |
Tx:7.22 | you to use what the ego has made to teach the opposite of what the | ego has learned. The kind of learning is as irrelevant as is the |
Tx:7.24 | of your work with ease when you have learned this course. To the | ego there appears to be no connection, because the ego is |
Tx:7.26 | meaning only by experiencing yourself as unreal. This is why the | ego is insane; it teaches that you are not what you are. This is |
Tx:7.26 | therefore be teaching something else as well, even though the | ego does not know what it is. |
Tx:7.27 | The | ego, then, is always being undone and does suspect your motives. |
Tx:7.27 | your motives. Your mind cannot be unified in allegiance to the | ego, because the mind does not belong to it. Yet what is |
Tx:7.27 | the mind does not belong to it. Yet what is “treacherous” to the | ego is faithful to peace. The ego's “enemy” is therefore your |
Tx:7.27 | We said before that the ego's friend is not part of you, since the | ego perceives itself as at war and therefore in need of allies. You |
Tx:7.32 | is to believe you can do it. This can only be the voice of the | ego. |
Tx:7.34 | you are remembering the laws of God and forgetting the laws of the | ego. We said before that forgetting is merely a way of remembering |
Tx:7.35 | ability which opposes an opposite. That is the way in which the | ego tries to use all abilities, since its goal is always to make |
Tx:7.36 | goals can never be reconciled in any way or to any extent. The | ego always seeks to divide and separate. The Holy Spirit always |
Tx:7.37 | pull or the Will of God is not an ability but a real delusion. The | ego believes that it has this ability and can offer it to you as a |
Tx:7.38 | is His. Healing is a way of forgetting the sense of danger the | ego has induced in you by not recognizing its existence in your |
Tx:7.40 | Only minds communicate. Since the | ego cannot obliterate the impulse to communicate because it is also |
Tx:7.40 | impulse to communicate because it is also the impulse to create, the | ego can only teach you that the body can both communicate and |
Tx:7.40 | communicate and create and therefore does not need the mind. The | ego thus tries to teach you that the body can act like the mind and |
Tx:7.41 | communicate, but they cannot hurt. The body in the service of the | ego can hurt other bodies, but this cannot occur unless the body |
Tx:7.48 | think that you have changed it as long as you learn through the | ego. This does place you in a position of needing to learn a lesson |
Tx:7.49 | your mind about his for him, you help him undo the change his | ego thinks it has made in him. As you can hear two voices, so you can |
Tx:7.50 | created you—in understanding, in appreciation, and in love. The | ego is totally unable to understand this, because it does not |
Tx:7.54 | equally reciprocal. They make or create, depending on whether the | ego or the Holy Spirit begets or inspires them, but they will |
Tx:7.56 | The ingeniousness of the | ego to preserve itself is enormous, but it stems from the power of |
Tx:7.56 | is enormous, but it stems from the power of the mind, which the | ego denies. This means that the ego attacks what is preserving |
Tx:7.56 | the power of the mind, which the ego denies. This means that the | ego attacks what is preserving it, and this must be a source of |
Tx:7.56 | it, and this must be a source of extreme anxiety. That is why the | ego never knows what it is doing. It is perfectly logical but |
Tx:7.56 | what it is doing. It is perfectly logical but clearly insane. The | ego draws upon the one source which is totally inimical to its |
Tx:7.57 | Remaining logical but still insane, the | ego resolves this completely insane dilemma in a completely insane |
Tx:7.57 | it by guaranteeing that you will not know your own safety. The | ego cannot afford to know anything. Knowledge is total, and the ego |
Tx:7.57 | ego cannot afford to know anything. Knowledge is total, and the | ego does not believe in totality. This unbelief is its origin and, |
Tx:7.57 | believe in totality. This unbelief is its origin and, while the | ego does not love you, it is faithful to its own antecedents, |
Tx:7.58 | Mind always reproduces as it was produced. Produced by fear, the | ego reproduces fear. This is its allegiance, and this allegiance |
Tx:7.58 | to love, because you are love. Love is your power, which the | ego must deny. It must also deny everything which this power gives |
Tx:7.58 | it gives you everything. No one who has everything wants the | ego. Its own maker, then, does not want it. Rejection is therefore |
Tx:7.58 | does not want it. Rejection is therefore the only decision which the | ego could possibly encounter, if the mind which made it knew |
Tx:7.59 | The | ego therefore opposes all appreciation, all recognition, all |
Tx:7.62 | if you are attacking Him. We have repeatedly emphasized that the | ego does believe it can attack God and tries to persuade you that |
Tx:7.62 | you that you have done this. If the mind cannot attack, the | ego proceeds perfectly logically to the position that you cannot be |
Tx:7.62 | it can see itself as it wants to be. Aware of its weakness, the | ego wants your allegiance, but not as you really are. The ego |
Tx:7.62 | the ego wants your allegiance, but not as you really are. The | ego therefore wants to engage your mind in its own delusional |
Tx:7.63 | The | ego wants no part of truth, because the truth is that the ego is |
Tx:7.64 | you believe what you can understand is up to you to decide. The | ego believes this totally, being fully committed to it. It is not |
Tx:7.64 | this totally, being fully committed to it. It is not true. The | ego therefore is totally committed to untruth, perceiving in total |
Tx:7.66 | and attack them for their unworthiness. That is all the world of the | ego is—nothing. It has no meaning. It does not exist. Do not try |
Tx:7.79 | is responsible for itself and being without allegiance to God, the | ego is incapable of trust. Projecting its insane belief that you |
Tx:7.81 | this only, you will be only this. The gifts you offer to the | ego are always experienced as sacrifices, but the gifts you offer |
Tx:7.82 | which unifies the Kingdom and keeps it in the Mind of God. To the | ego, the law is perceived as a way of getting rid of something it |
Tx:7.83 | Projection, to the Holy Spirit, is the law of extension. To the | ego, it is the law of deprivation. It therefore produces abundance or |
Tx:7.84 | The | ego always tries to preserve conflict. It is very ingenious in |
Tx:7.84 | intolerable that you will insist on giving it up. Therefore, the | ego tries to persuade you that it can free you of conflict, lest |
Tx:7.84 | you of conflict, lest you give the ego up and free yourself. The | ego, using its own warped version of the laws of God, utilizes the |
Tx:7.86 | That is why those who project from the | ego are vigilant for their own safety. They are afraid that their |
Tx:7.87 | or be attacked. The belief that it can, a fallacy which the | ego always makes, underlies its whole use of projection. It does |
Tx:7.87 | you are. Yet its existence is dependent on your mind, because the | ego is your belief. The ego is therefore a confusion in |
Tx:7.87 | is dependent on your mind, because the ego is your belief. The | ego is therefore a confusion in identification which never had a |
Tx:7.89 | because truth is beyond belief, and His perception is true. The | ego can be completely forgotten at any time, because it was always |
Tx:7.89 | he has judged to be unbelievable. The more you learn about the | ego, the more you realize that it cannot be believed. The |
Tx:7.90 | The whole purpose of this course is to teach you that the | ego is unbelievable and will forever be unbelievable. You who made |
Tx:7.90 | is unbelievable and will forever be unbelievable. You who made the | ego by believing the unbelievable cannot make this judgment alone. By |
Tx:7.91 | Sonship, or you withhold yourself from God. Selfishness is of the | ego, but self-fullness is of the Soul, because that is how God |
Tx:7.91 | it. The Holy Spirit is the part of the mind that lies between the | ego and the Soul, mediating between them always in favor of the |
Tx:7.91 | Soul, mediating between them always in favor of the Soul. To the | ego, this is partiality, and it therefore responds as if it were the |
Tx:7.92 | rendering its creations equally whole and equal in perfection. The | ego cannot prevail against a totality which includes God, and any |
Tx:7.101 | reason is equally obvious. What is joyful to you is painful to the | ego and, as long as you are in doubt about what you are, you will |
Tx:7.101 | of sacrifice. Obey the Holy Spirit, and you will be giving up the | ego. But you will be sacrificing nothing. On the contrary, you will |
Tx:7.102 | it is His. The ego's wishes do not mean anything, because the | ego wishes for the impossible. You can wish for the impossible, but |
Tx:7.103 | to be fearful? The Holy Spirit never asks for sacrifice, but the | ego always does. When you are confused about this very clear |
Tx:7.105 | relinquishment of your false decision-making prerogative, which the | ego guards so jealously, is not accomplished by your wish. It was |
Tx:7.107 | perceives orders of difficulty in everything. This is because the | ego perceives nothing as wholly desirable. By demonstrating to |
Tx:8.2 | you would hardly be willing to throw it away so readily when the | ego asks for your allegiance. The distraction of the ego seems to |
Tx:8.2 | when the ego asks for your allegiance. The distraction of the | ego seems to interfere with your learning, but the ego has no power |
Tx:8.2 | of the ego seems to interfere with your learning, but the | ego has no power to distract you unless you give it the power. |
Tx:8.3 | they will be removed from your mind for you. Every response to the | ego is a call to war, and war does deprive you of peace. Yet in |
Tx:8.8 | is the purpose of the curriculum, you must learn it of Him. The | ego does not know what it is trying to teach. It is trying to teach |
Tx:8.8 | It is trying to teach you what you are without knowing it. The | ego is expert only in confusion. It does not understand anything |
Tx:8.8 | which is quite impossible, you could learn nothing from the | ego because the ego knows nothing. |
Tx:8.8 | quite impossible, you could learn nothing from the ego because the | ego knows nothing. |
Tx:8.9 | the teacher to whom a Son of God should turn to find himself? The | ego has never given you a sensible answer to anything. Simply on |
Tx:8.9 | should not this alone disqualify it as your future teacher? Yet the | ego has done more harm to your learning than this alone. Learning is |
Tx:8.10 | The | ego cannot teach you anything as long as your will is free, because |
Tx:8.10 | will to be imprisoned, because your will is free. That is why the | ego is the denial of free will. It is never God who coerces you |
Tx:8.10 | because they are one. This is the undoing of everything the | ego tries to teach. It is not, then, only the direction of the |
Tx:8.11 | The | ego wants to teach you that you want to oppose God's Will. This |
Tx:8.20 | them. Your power and glory are in him, because they are yours. The | ego tries to find them in yourself, because it does not know where |
Tx:8.22 | achieve the goal of the curriculum, then, you cannot listen to the | ego. Its purpose is to defeat its own goal. The ego does not know |
Tx:8.22 | listen to the ego. Its purpose is to defeat its own goal. The | ego does not know this, because it does not know anything. But you |
Tx:8.22 | this, and you will know it if you are willing to look at what the | ego has made of you. This is your responsibility, because once |
Tx:8.23 | glory are everywhere, and you cannot be excluded from them. The | ego teaches that your strength is in you alone. The Holy Spirit |
Tx:8.39 | When you unite with me, you are uniting without the | ego, because I have renounced the ego in myself and therefore |
Tx:8.39 | me, you are uniting without the ego, because I have renounced the | ego in myself and therefore cannot unite with yours. Our union is |
Tx:8.39 | unite with yours. Our union is therefore the way to renounce the | ego in yourself. The truth in both of us is beyond the ego. By |
Tx:8.39 | the ego in yourself. The truth in both of us is beyond the | ego. By willing that, you have gone beyond it toward truth. Our |
Tx:8.39 | have gone beyond it toward truth. Our success in transcending the | ego is guaranteed by God, and I can share [my perfect confidence in |
Tx:8.40 | anywhere along the road to peace, it is always because the | ego has attempted to join the journey with us and cannot do so. |
Tx:8.40 | with us and cannot do so. Sensing defeat and angered by it, the | ego regards itself as rejected and becomes retaliative. You are |
Tx:8.40 | this journey, you have chosen me as your companion instead of the | ego. Do not try to hold on to both, or you will try to go in |
Tx:8.41 | the one for which God's Voice speaks in all of us. Never accord the | ego the power to interfere with the journey because it has none, |
Tx:8.41 | Leave all deception behind and reach beyond all attempts of the | ego to hold you back. I go before you, because I am beyond the ego. |
Tx:8.41 | the ego to hold you back. I go before you, because I am beyond the | ego. Reach therefore for my hand, because you want to transcend the |
Tx:8.41 | Reach therefore for my hand, because you want to transcend the | ego. My will will never be wanting, and if you want to share it |
Tx:8.54 | everything you have made in the light of what He is. The | ego separates through the body. The Holy Spirit reaches through |
Tx:8.61 | each other, so that it appears to be ruled by chaos. Guided by the | ego, it is. Guided by the Holy Spirit, it is not. It becomes only |
Tx:8.61 | of the Holy Spirit, where devotion to Him replaces devotion to the | ego. In this sense, the body does become a temple to God, because |
Tx:8.69 | ascribes to it. It does not equate it with what it is. To the | ego, the body is to attack with. Equating you with the body, it |
Tx:8.71 | making the concept of both health and sickness possible. The | ego makes a fundamental confusion between means and ends, as it |
Tx:8.71 | means and ends, as it always does. Regarding the body as an end, the | ego has no real use for it because it is not an end. You must |
Tx:8.71 | have noticed an outstanding characteristic of every end that the | ego has accepted as its own. When you have achieved it, it has not |
Tx:8.71 | you have achieved it, it has not satisfied you. This is why the | ego is forced to shift from one end to another without ceasing, so |
Tx:8.72 | this is synonymous with the belief in attack as an end. The | ego has a real investment in sickness. If you are sick, how can you |
Tx:8.74 | A more honest statement would be as follows: Those who want the | ego are predisposed to defend it. Therefore, their choice of |
Tx:8.74 | their choice of witnesses should be suspect from the beginning. The | ego does not call upon witnesses who would disagree with its case, |
Tx:8.74 | Holy Spirit and one which He is perfectly equipped to fulfill. The | ego as a judge gives anything but an impartial judgment. When the |
Tx:8.74 | ego as a judge gives anything but an impartial judgment. When the | ego calls on a witness, it has already made the witness an ally. |
Tx:8.75 | the body has no function of itself, because it is not an end. The | ego, however, establishes it as an end because as such it will lose |
Tx:8.75 | lose its true function. This is the purpose of everything the | ego does. Its sole aim is to lose sight of the function of |
Tx:8.76 | and your extreme need to depend on external guidance. The | ego uses this as its best argument for your need for its guidance. |
Tx:8.77 | asking the guidance of a teacher who does not know the answer. The | ego is incapable of knowing how you feel. When we said that the ego |
Tx:8.77 | ego is incapable of knowing how you feel. When we said that the | ego does not know anything, we said the one thing about the ego |
Tx:8.77 | the ego does not know anything, we said the one thing about the | ego that is wholly true. But there is a corollary; if knowledge |
Tx:8.77 | true. But there is a corollary; if knowledge is being and the | ego has no knowledge, then the ego has no being. |
Tx:8.77 | if knowledge is being and the ego has no knowledge, then the | ego has no being. |
Tx:8.78 | will not to tolerate anything except truth. When you lay the | ego aside, it will be gone. The Holy Spirit's Voice is as loud as |
Tx:8.80 | everything, because He knows what the answer to everything is. The | ego does not know what a real question is, although it asks an |
Tx:8.80 | Yet you can learn this as you learn to question the value of the | ego and thus establish your ability to evaluate its questions. When |
Tx:8.80 | and thus establish your ability to evaluate its questions. When the | ego tempts you to sickness, do not ask the Holy Spirit to heal the |
Tx:8.85 | The | ego, which always weakens the will, wants to separate the body |
Tx:8.85 | the body from the mind. This is an attempt to destroy it, yet the | ego actually believes that it is protecting it. This is because the |
Tx:8.85 | actually believes that it is protecting it. This is because the | ego believes that mind is dangerous and that to make mindless is |
Tx:8.85 | since it would mean to make nothing out of what God created. The | ego despises weakness, even though it makes every effort to |
Tx:8.85 | weakness, even though it makes every effort to induce it. The | ego wants only what it hates. To the ego this is perfectly |
Tx:8.85 | effort to induce it. The ego wants only what it hates. To the | ego this is perfectly sensible. Believing in the power of attack, the |
Tx:8.85 | this is perfectly sensible. Believing in the power of attack, the | ego wants attack. |
Tx:8.90 | but yours. Your will is not the ego's, and that is why the | ego is against you. What seems to be the fear of God is really only |
Tx:8.100 | so you are asking for nothing. Any desire which stems from the | ego is a desire for nothing and to ask for it is not a request. |
Tx:8.100 | not concerned with form at all, being aware only of meaning. The | ego cannot ask the Holy Spirit for anything because there is |
Tx:9.1 | The alertness of the | ego to the errors which other egos make is not the kind of vigilance |
Tx:9.1 | to them. To the Holy Spirit, it makes no sense at all. To the | ego, it is kind and right and good to point out errors and “correct” |
Tx:9.1 | point out errors and “correct” them. This makes perfect sense to the | ego, which is totally unaware of what errors are and what |
Tx:9.2 | Errors are of the | ego, and correction of errors of any kind lies solely in the |
Tx:9.2 | of errors of any kind lies solely in the relinquishment of the | ego. When you correct a brother, you are telling him that he is |
Tx:9.2 | sense at the time, and it is certain that if he is speaking from the | ego, he will be making no sense. But your task is still to tell him |
Tx:9.2 | another level. He is still right, because he is a Son of God. His | ego is always wrong, no matter what it says or does. |
Tx:9.3 | If you point out the errors of your brother's | ego, you must be seeing through yours, because the Holy Spirit does |
Tx:9.3 | This must be true if there is no communication at all between the | ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit |
Tx:9.3 | is no communication at all between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The | ego makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit does not attempt to |
Tx:9.4 | hearing Him. If you do not hear Him, you are listening to your | ego and making as little sense as the brother whose errors you |
Tx:9.7 | by you is possible, and this can only be the arrogance of the | ego. Correction is of God, Who does not know of arrogance. The Holy |
Tx:9.11 | Him, you cannot look on your abilities through the eyes of the | ego, or you will judge them as it does. All their harmfulness lies |
Tx:9.12 | The | ego, too, has a plan of forgiveness because you are asking for one, |
Tx:9.12 | will merely place yourself in an impossible situation to which the | ego always leads you. The ego's plan is to have you see error |
Tx:9.13 | This is where the | ego is forced to appeal to “mysteries” and begins to insist that you |
Tx:9.14 | its effects everywhere and in all respects, He teaches that the | ego does not exist and proves it. Follow His teaching in |
Tx:9.15 | your function is. The confusion of functions is so typical of the | ego that you should be quite familiar with it by now. The ego |
Tx:9.15 | of the ego that you should be quite familiar with it by now. The | ego believes that all functions belong to it, even though it has no |
Tx:9.15 | of grandiosity and confusion which makes it likely that the | ego will attack anyone and anything for no reason at all. This is |
Tx:9.15 | anyone and anything for no reason at all. This is exactly what the | ego does. It is totally unpredictable in its responses, because |
Tx:9.16 | of how you can account for the reactions, whether they place the | ego in a very sound position as the guide for yours. It seems |
Tx:9.17 | it, and you have judged it by the same standard as I have. The | ego literally lives on borrowed time, and its days are numbered. Do |
Tx:9.18 | fantasies, you will not find it. The symbols of fantasy are of the | ego, and of these you will find many. But do not look for meaning |
Tx:9.20 | because it is undertaken by unhealed healers and is therefore of the | ego. Let us consider the unhealed healer more carefully now. By |
Tx:9.21 | We have repeatedly stated that beliefs of the | ego cannot be shared, and this is why they are unreal. How, then, |
Tx:9.22 | retribution. What they have done is merely to identify with the | ego and, by perceiving clearly what it does, condemn themselves |
Tx:9.24 | fear is to reduce the importance of the fearer, how can this build | ego strength? These perfectly self-evident inconsistencies account |
Tx:9.25 | Because his | ego is involved, it always attempts to gain some support from the |
Tx:9.26 | an impasse, the characteristic “impossible situation” to which the | ego always leads. It can be helpful to point out to a patient |
Tx:9.39 | and so obvious that it is often overlooked. That is because the | ego is afraid of the obvious since obviousness is the essential |
Tx:9.40 | And this evaluation must be in your mind because He is. The | ego is also in your mind, because you have accepted it there. Its |
Tx:9.40 | however, is the exact opposite of the Holy Spirit's, because the | ego does not love you. It is unaware of what you are and wholly |
Tx:9.40 | it perceives, because its own perceptions are so shifting. The | ego is therefore capable of suspiciousness at best and viciousness at |
Tx:9.41 | by anything you do, because He never forgets what you are. The | ego is deceived by everything you do, even when you respond to the |
Tx:9.41 | Holy Spirit, because at such times its confusion increases. The | ego is, therefore, particularly likely to attack you when you react |
Tx:9.42 | The | ego will begin to attack your motives as soon as they become |
Tx:9.42 | therefore regard yourself as inadequate. Would you look to the | ego to help you escape from a sense of inadequacy it has produced |
Tx:9.44 | We said before that the | ego does not know what a real question is. Lack of knowledge of any |
Tx:9.47 | Remember this when the | ego speaks, and you will not hear it. The truth about you is so lofty |
Tx:9.48 | you. Whenever you become aware of it, however dimly, you abandon the | ego automatically, because in the presence of the grandeur of God the |
Tx:9.48 | in the presence of the grandeur of God the meaninglessness of the | ego becomes perfectly apparent. Though it does not understand this, |
Tx:9.48 | becomes perfectly apparent. Though it does not understand this, the | ego believes that its “enemy” has struck and attempts to offer gifts |
Tx:9.48 | [is the only offering it can make. The grandiosity] of the | ego is its alternative to the grandeur of God. Which will you choose? |
Tx:9.49 | attempt to outdo but not to undo. We said before that the | ego vacillates between suspiciousness and viciousness. It remains |
Tx:9.50 | The | ego does not know the difference between grandeur and grandiosity, |
Tx:9.50 | impulses and ego-alien beliefs of its own. We once said that the | ego is aware of threat, but does not make distinctions between two |
Tx:9.51 | The | ego is immobilized in the presence of God's grandeur, because His |
Tx:9.51 | freedom. Even the faintest hint of your reality literally drives the | ego from your mind because of complete lack of investment in it. |
Tx:9.51 | of reality will not remain with you unless you do not allow the | ego to attack it. The ego will make every effort to recover and |
Tx:9.51 | remain with you unless you do not allow the ego to attack it. The | ego will make every effort to recover and mobilize its energies |
Tx:9.53 | The | ego depends solely on your willingness to tolerate it. If you are |
Tx:9.53 | grandeur, you cannot despair, and therefore you cannot want the | ego. Your grandeur is God's answer to the ego because it is true. |
Tx:9.53 | you cannot want the ego. Your grandeur is God's answer to the | ego because it is true. Littleness and grandeur cannot co-exist, nor |
Tx:9.78 | image of what its maker thinks he is. And that is exactly what the | ego does perceive in a Son of God; a sick god, self-created, |
Tx:10.1 | Either God or the | ego is insane. If you will examine the evidence on both sides fairly, |
Tx:10.1 | fairly, you will realize that this must be true. Neither God nor the | ego proposes a partial thought system. Each is internally consistent, |
Tx:10.2 | really believed this question involves conflict? If you made the | ego, how can the ego have made you? The authority problem remains the |
Tx:10.2 | this question involves conflict? If you made the ego, how can the | ego have made you? The authority problem remains the only source of |
Tx:10.2 | problem remains the only source of perceived conflict, because the | ego was made out of the wish of God's Son to father Him. The ego, |
Tx:10.2 | the ego was made out of the wish of God's Son to father Him. The | ego, then, is nothing more than a delusional system in which you made |
Tx:10.2 | It sounds insane when it is stated with perfect honesty, but the | ego never looks upon what it does with perfect honesty. Yet that is |
Tx:10.2 | hidden in the dark cornerstone of its thought system. And either the | ego, which you made, is your father, or its whole thought system |
Tx:10.13 | The projection of the | ego makes it appear as if God's Will is outside yourself and |
Tx:10.20 | your mind so that He becomes your only Guest. Whenever you ask the | ego to enter, you lessen His welcome. He will remain, but you have |
Tx:10.22 | Would you be hostage to the | ego or host to God? You will accept only whom you invite. You are |
Tx:10.22 | although He cannot help you without your invitation, and the | ego is nothing whether you invite it in or not. Real freedom depends |
Tx:10.35 | Lay it to yourself and you cannot know yourself, for only the | ego blames at all. Self-blame is therefore ego identification and as |
Tx:10.35 | yourself, for only the ego blames at all. Self-blame is therefore | ego identification and as strong an ego defense as blaming others. |
Tx:10.35 | at all. Self-blame is therefore ego identification and as strong an | ego defense as blaming others. You cannot enter God's Presence if |
Tx:10.39 | for we are merely looking honestly for truth. The “dynamics” of the | ego will be our lesson for a while, for we must look first at this to |
Tx:10.41 | and the whole separation fallacy lies in the belief that the | ego has the power to do anything. The ego is fearful to you |
Tx:10.41 | lies in the belief that the ego has the power to do anything. The | ego is fearful to you because you believe this. Yet the truth is |
Tx:10.43 | When we look at the | ego, then, we are not considering dynamics but delusions. We can |
Tx:10.43 | expended on nothing. The ego's goal is quite explicitly | ego autonomy. From the beginning, then, its purpose is to be |
Tx:10.44 | natural extension of what it is. Everything that stems from the | ego is the natural outcome of its central belief, and the way to undo |
Tx:10.45 | of your dependence on God in which your freedom lies. The | ego sees all dependency as threatening and has twisted even your |
Tx:10.46 | The | ego always attacks on behalf of separation. Believing it has the |
Tx:10.46 | nothing else because its goal of autonomy is nothing else. The | ego is totally confused about reality, but it does not lose sight |
Tx:10.47 | What you must learn to recognize is that the last thing the | ego wishes you to realize is that you are afraid of it. For if the |
Tx:10.47 | ego wishes you to realize is that you are afraid of it. For if the | ego gives rise to fear, it is diminishing your independence and |
Tx:10.48 | The | ego can and does allow you to regard yourself as supercilious, |
Tx:10.49 | how the ego wants you to experience it, is therefore the basic | ego threat. Its dream of autonomy is shaken to its foundation by this |
Tx:10.49 | cost of fear if you recognize it. Yet this is the cost, and the | ego cannot minimize it. For if you overlook love, you are |
Tx:10.51 | with Him and fulfilling your function as it exists in truth. The | ego believes that to accomplish its goal is happiness. But it is |
Tx:10.52 | Upheld by fear, this is what the | ego would have you believe. Yet God's Son is not insane and cannot |
Tx:10.53 | The | ego analyzes; the Holy Spirit accepts. The appreciation of |
Tx:10.53 | up is clearly the characteristically contradictory approach of the | ego to everything. Never forget that the ego believes that power, |
Tx:10.53 | approach of the ego to everything. Never forget that the | ego believes that power, understanding, and truth lie in |
Tx:10.53 | and obsessed with the conviction that separation is salvation, the | ego attacks everything it perceives by breaking it up into small and |
Tx:10.53 | parts without meaningful relationships and thus without meaning. The | ego will always substitute chaos for meaning, for if separation is |
Tx:10.54 | and would have to be, the exact opposite of the Holy Spirit's. The | ego focuses on error and overlooks truth. It makes real every |
Tx:10.54 | error clearly in mind and protecting what it has made real, the | ego proceeds to the next step in its thought system—that error is |
Tx:10.55 | The | ego makes no attempt to understand this, and it is clearly not |
Tx:10.55 | to understand this, and it is clearly not understandable, but the | ego does make every attempt to demonstrate it, and this it does |
Tx:10.55 | it, and this it does constantly. Analyzing to attack meaning, the | ego does succeed in overlooking it and is left with a series of |
Tx:10.56 | and those who are convinced by it must be deluded. Can the | ego teach truly when it overlooks truth? Can it perceive what it |
Tx:10.56 | do attest to its denial but hardly to what it has denied! The | ego looks straight at the Father and does not see Him, for it has |
Tx:10.57 | that a lie is true. What you see of His Son through the eyes of the | ego is a demonstration that His Son does not exist, yet where the Son |
Tx:10.58 | Every brother you meet becomes a witness for Christ or for the | ego, depending on what you perceive in him. Everyone convinces you of |
Tx:10.59 | see it. The resurrection is the complete triumph of Christ over the | ego, not by attack but by transcendence. For Christ does rise above |
Tx:10.59 | not by attack but by transcendence. For Christ does rise above the | ego and all its works and ascends to the Father and His Kingdom. |
Tx:10.71 | The | ego sees some good but never only good. That is why its |
Tx:11.9 | face it without disguise as a crucial step in the undoing of the | ego. Consider how well the Holy Spirit's interpretation of the |
Tx:11.27 | both. He is asking for salvation, as you are. Poverty is of the | ego and never of God. No “outrageous” request can be made of one |
Tx:11.29 | To identify with the | ego is to attack yourself and make yourself poor. That is why |
Tx:11.29 | make yourself poor. That is why everyone who identifies with the | ego feels deprived. What he experiences then is depression or |
Tx:11.30 | as the outside world is merely your attempt to maintain your | ego identification, for everyone believes that identification is |
Tx:11.36 | The | ego is certain that love is dangerous, and this is always its central |
Tx:11.36 | puts it this way; on the contrary, everyone who believes that the | ego is salvation is intensely engaged in the search for love. Yet the |
Tx:11.36 | is salvation is intensely engaged in the search for love. Yet the | ego, though encouraging the search very actively, makes one proviso— |
Tx:11.36 | up simply as, “Seek and do not find.” This is the one promise the | ego holds out to you and the one promise it will keep. For the ego |
Tx:11.36 | the ego holds out to you and the one promise it will keep. For the | ego pursues its goal with fanatic insistence, and its reality |
Tx:11.37 | The search which the | ego undertakes is therefore bound to be defeated. And since it also |
Tx:11.37 | you to a journey which must end in perceived self-defeat. For the | ego cannot love, and in its frantic search for love, it is seeking |
Tx:11.37 | what it is afraid to find. The search is inevitable because the | ego is part of your mind, and because of its source, the ego is not |
Tx:11.37 | because the ego is part of your mind, and because of its source, the | ego is not wholly split off, or it could not be believed at all. For |
Tx:11.37 | do so when you realize exactly what the journey is on which the | ego sets you. |
Tx:11.38 | to find what would utterly defeat him. Being unable to love, the | ego would be totally inadequate in love's presence, for it could not |
Tx:11.38 | that it had not taught you the response pattern you need. The | ego will therefore distort love and teach you that love calls forth |
Tx:11.38 | love and teach you that love calls forth the responses which the | ego can teach. Follow its teaching, then, and you will search for |
Tx:11.39 | Do you realize that the | ego must set you on a journey which cannot but lead to a sense of |
Tx:11.53 | The | ego is trying to teach you how to gain the whole world and lose your |
Tx:11.66 | that you see what you seek, for what you seek you will find. The | ego finds what it seeks and only that. It does not find love, for |
Tx:11.75 | The | ego is not a traitor to God to Whom treachery is impossible, but it |
Tx:11.75 | as long as you feel guilty, you are listening to the voice of the | ego, which tells you that you have been treacherous to God and |
Tx:11.75 | death. You will think that death comes from God and not from the | ego because, by confusing yourself with the ego, you believe that |
Tx:11.75 | God and not from the ego because, by confusing yourself with the | ego, you believe that you want death. And from what you want, God |
Tx:11.90 | hold it dear. For the blamelessness of Christ is the proof that the | ego never was and can never be. Without guilt the ego has no life, |
Tx:11.90 | the proof that the ego never was and can never be. Without guilt the | ego has no life, and God's Son is without guilt. As you look upon |
Tx:11.98 | is the ego's plan, which it offers instead of dispelling it. The | ego believes in atonement through attack, being fully committed to |
Tx:11.98 | must also believe it, for how else but by identifying with the | ego could you hold dear what you do not want? |
Tx:11.99 | The | ego teaches you to attack yourself because you are guilty, and this |
Tx:12.1 | The ultimate purpose of projection, as the | ego uses it, is always to get rid of guilt. Yet, |
Tx:12.1 | it, is always to get rid of guilt. Yet, characteristically, the | ego attempts to get rid of guilt from its viewpoint only, for much |
Tx:12.1 | to get rid of guilt from its viewpoint only, for much as the | ego wants to retain guilt, you find it intolerable, since guilt |
Tx:12.1 | deepest split of all occurs, for if you are to retain guilt as the | ego insists, you cannot be you. Only by persuading you that it is |
Tx:12.1 | cannot be you. Only by persuading you that it is you, could the | ego possibly induce you to project guilt and thereby keep it in |
Tx:12.2 | why. On the contrary, you associate them with a weird assortment of | ego ideals which the ego claims you have failed. Yet you have no idea |
Tx:12.2 | you associate them with a weird assortment of ego ideals which the | ego claims you have failed. Yet you have no idea that you are failing |
Tx:12.4 | behavior is directly attributable to its definition of guilt. To the | ego, the guiltless are guilty. Those who do not attack are its |
Tx:12.4 | and deepest cornerstone in the ego's foundation, and while the | ego can withstand your raising all else to question, it guards this |
Tx:12.4 | secret. So it is this secret that we must look upon calmly, for the | ego cannot protect you against truth, and in its presence the ego |
Tx:12.4 | the ego cannot protect you against truth, and in its presence the | ego is dispelled. |
Tx:12.5 | indiscriminately, but you have not uncovered its source. For the | ego does want to kill you, and if you identify with it, you must |
Tx:12.6 | We once said that the crucifixion is the symbol of the | ego. When it was confronted with the real guiltlessness of God's |
Tx:12.6 | reason it gave was that guiltlessness is blasphemous to God. To the | ego the ego is god, and guiltlessness must be interpreted as the |
Tx:12.8 | accepted it for yourself. You have recognized the futility of the | ego and its offerings, but though you do not want the ego, you do not |
Tx:12.8 | of the ego and its offerings, but though you do not want the | ego, you do not look upon the alternative with gladness. You are |
Tx:12.11 | without fear if you did not believe that, without the | ego, you would find within yourself something you fear even more. You |
Tx:12.15 | so dear as what you made. You are more afraid of God than of the | ego, and love cannot enter where it is not welcome. But hatred can, |
Tx:12.23 | this world is healing, and your function in Heaven is creating. The | ego teaches that your function on earth is destruction and that you |
Tx:12.26 | The | ego has a very strange notion of time, and it is with this notion |
Tx:12.26 | it is with this notion that your questioning might well begin. The | ego invests heavily in the past and in the end believes that the past |
Tx:12.26 | making them continuous without an intervening present. For the | ego uses the present only as a brief transition to the future, in |
Tx:12.27 | Now has no meaning to the | ego. The present merely reminds it of past hurts, and it reacts to |
Tx:12.27 | hurts, and it reacts to the present as if it were the past. The | ego cannot tolerate release from the past, and although the past is |
Tx:12.27 | release from the past, and although the past is no more, the | ego tries to preserve its image by responding as if it were |
Tx:12.28 | opportunities which you could find for release in the present. The | ego would preserve your nightmares and prevent you from awakening |
Tx:12.29 | meet yourself and the encounter is holy because you are. The | ego teaches that you always encounter your past, and because your |
Tx:12.31 | The | ego, on the other hand, regards the function of time as one of |
Tx:12.31 | itself in place of eternity, for like the Holy Spirit, the | ego interprets the goal of time as its own. The continuity of past |
Tx:12.31 | of past and future under its direction is the only purpose the | ego perceives in time, and it closes over the present so that no gap |
Tx:12.68 | hurt you. Ownership is a dangerous concept if it is left to you. The | ego wants to have things for salvation, for possession is its law. |
Tx:12.69 | Everything that the | ego tells you that you need will hurt you. For although the ego urges |
Tx:12.69 | that the ego tells you that you need will hurt you. For although the | ego urges you again and again to get, it leaves you nothing, for |
Tx:12.69 | it, it will be wrenched and hurled into the dust. For where the | ego sees salvation, it sees separation, and so you lose whatever |
Tx:13.12 | you will not escape the punishment it offers those who obey it. The | ego rewards fidelity to it with pain, for faith in it is pain. And |
Tx:13.18 | Do not be afraid to look within. The | ego tells you all is black with guilt within you and bids you not |
Tx:13.45 | must be reconciled with truth. This is the reconciliation which the | ego would substitute for your reconciliation unto sanity and unto |
Tx:13.45 | in His Mind for you, and one which He will effect as surely as the | ego will not effect what it attempts. |
Tx:13.46 | Failure is of the | ego, not of God. From Him you cannot wander, and there is no |
Tx:13.47 | The Holy Spirit uses logic as easily and as well as does the | ego, except that His conclusions are not insane. They take a |
Tx:13.47 | a direction exactly opposite, pointing as clearly to Heaven as the | ego points to darkness and to death. We have followed much of the |
Tx:13.68 | deciding between the crucifixion and the resurrection, between the | ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy |
Tx:13.68 | and the resurrection, between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The | ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy Spirit the decision for |
Tx:14.38 | what you are. The bringing together of truth and illusion, of the | ego to God, is the Holy Spirit's only function. Keep not your making |
Tx:14.39 | Bringing the | ego to God is but to bring error to truth, where it stands corrected |
Tx:14.42 | God's reflection in it. Earth can reflect Heaven or hell; God or the | ego. You need but leave the mirror clean and clear of all the images |
Tx:14.49 | some are reflections of Heaven, while others are motivated by the | ego, which but seems to think. The result is a weaving, changing |
Tx:14.50 | this and bring any order into chaos shows you that you are not an | ego and that more than an ego must be in you. For the ego is |
Tx:14.50 | into chaos shows you that you are not an ego and that more than an | ego must be in you. For the ego is chaos, and if it were all of |
Tx:14.50 | are not an ego and that more than an ego must be in you. For the | ego is chaos, and if it were all of you, no order at all would be |
Tx:14.50 | Yet though the order which you impose upon your minds limits the | ego, it also limits you. To order is to judge and to arrange by |
Tx:14.52 | but only to the particular perception of his offering by which the | ego judges it. |
Tx:14.53 | The | ego is incapable of understanding content and is totally unconcerned |
Tx:14.53 | of understanding content and is totally unconcerned with it. To the | ego, if the form is acceptable, the content must be. Otherwise, it |
Tx:14.53 | all. For of yourselves you could not know of it. The study of the | ego is not the study of the mind. In fact, the ego enjoys the study |
Tx:14.53 | The study of the ego is not the study of the mind. In fact, the | ego enjoys the study of itself and thoroughly approves the |
Tx:14.54 | remains the ego's chosen condition. For no one alone can judge the | ego truly. Yet when two or more join together in searching for |
Tx:14.54 | Yet when two or more join together in searching for truth, the | ego can no longer defend its lack of content. The fact of union |
Tx:14.73 | return, for you will have invited Him to do so by abandoning the | ego on behalf of Him. Call not upon the ego for anything. It is only |
Tx:14.73 | to do so by abandoning the ego on behalf of Him. Call not upon the | ego for anything. It is only this that you need do. The Holy Spirit |
Tx:15.2 | seems to bring with it is due but to your identification with the | ego, which uses time to support its belief in destruction. The ego, |
Tx:15.2 | the ego, which uses time to support its belief in destruction. The | ego, like the Holy Spirit, uses time to convince you of the |
Tx:15.2 | you of the inevitability of the goal and end of teaching. To the | ego the goal is death, which is its end. But to the Holy Spirit the |
Tx:15.3 | The | ego is an ally of time, but not a friend. For it is as mistrustful of |
Tx:15.3 | as it is of life, and what it wants for you it cannot tolerate. The | ego wants you dead, but not itself. The outcome of its strange |
Tx:15.3 | The belief in hell is inescapable to those who identify with the | ego. Their nightmares and their fears are all associated with it. |
Tx:15.4 | The | ego teaches that hell is in the future, for this is what all its |
Tx:15.4 | its teaching is directed to. Hell is its goal, for although the | ego aims at death and dissolution as an end, it does not believe |
Tx:15.4 | ego's thought system before, but never so clearly as here. For the | ego must seem to keep fear from you to keep your allegiance. Yet it |
Tx:15.5 | Again the | ego tries and all too frequently succeeds in doing both by using |
Tx:15.5 | aims together so that they seem to be reconciled. The | ego teaches thus: Death is the end as far as hope of Heaven goes. Yet |
Tx:15.6 | The | ego teaches that Heaven is here and now because the future is hell. |
Tx:15.6 | here and bids him leap from hell into oblivion. The only time the | ego allows anyone to look upon with some amount of equanimity is the |
Tx:15.7 | be the same is hidden a far more insidious threat to peace. The | ego does not advertise its final threat, for it would have its |
Tx:15.7 | the belief in hell, and always does. The only way in which the | ego allows the fear of hell to be experienced is to bring hell |
Tx:15.8 | Holy Spirit teaches thus: There is no hell. Hell is only what the | ego has made of the present. The belief in hell is what prevents |
Tx:15.8 | afraid of it. The Holy Spirit leads as steadily to Heaven as the | ego drives to hell. For the Holy Spirit, Who knows only the |
Tx:15.8 | Who knows only the present, uses it to undo the fear by which the | ego would make the present useless. There is no escape from fear in |
Tx:15.19 | how much you have misused your brothers by seeing them as sources of | ego support. As a result, they witness to the ego in your |
Tx:15.19 | them as sources of ego support. As a result, they witness to the | ego in your perception and seem to provide reasons for not letting |
Tx:15.19 | strength. It is, therefore, your choice whether they support the | ego or the Holy Spirit in you. And you will know which you have |
Tx:15.26 | given him. We asked you once before, “Would you be hostage to the | ego or host to God?” Let this question be asked you by the Holy |
Tx:15.27 | your attempts to deny His magnitude and make His Son hostage to the | ego cannot make little whom God has joined with Him. Every decision |
Tx:15.37 | Be humble before Him and yet great in Him. And value no plan of the | ego before the plan of God. For you leave empty your place in His |
Tx:15.39 | course is simple is that truth is simple. Complexity is of the | ego and is nothing more than the ego's attempt to obscure the obvious. |
Tx:15.45 | You are afraid of this because you believe that without the | ego all would be chaos. Yet I assure you that without the ego all |
Tx:15.45 | the ego all would be chaos. Yet I assure you that without the | ego all would be love. |
Tx:15.48 | uses special relationships, which you have chosen to support the | ego, as a learning experience which points to truth. Under His |
Tx:15.65 | This is not the basis for any relationship in which the | ego enters. For every relationship on which the ego embarks is |
Tx:15.65 | in which the ego enters. For every relationship on which the | ego embarks is special. The ego establishes relationships only to |
Tx:15.65 | For every relationship on which the ego embarks is special. The | ego establishes relationships only to get something. And it would |
Tx:15.66 | It is impossible for the | ego to enter into any relationship without anger, for the ego |
Tx:15.66 | for the ego to enter into any relationship without anger, for the | ego believes that anger makes friends. This is not its statement, |
Tx:15.66 | This is not its statement, but it is its purpose. For the | ego really believes that it can get and keep by making guilty. |
Tx:15.66 | have no hold at all, except that no one recognizes it. For the | ego always seems to attract through love and has no attraction at |
Tx:15.68 | We said before that the | ego attempts to maintain and increase guilt, but in such a way that |
Tx:15.68 | doctrine that what you do to others, you have escaped. The | ego wishes no one well. Yet its survival depends on your belief |
Tx:15.69 | around the chosen host of God, who cannot make himself host to the | ego. In the name of his release, and in the name of Him Who would |
Tx:15.69 | release him, let us look more closely at the relationships which the | ego contrives and let the Holy Spirit judge them truly. For it is |
Tx:15.70 | In one way or another, every relationship which the | ego makes is based on the idea that by sacrificing itself, it |
Tx:15.70 | attack directly and avoid delaying what it really wants. Yet the | ego acknowledges “reality” as it sees it and recognizes that no one |
Tx:15.71 | sacrifice himself as well. Forgiveness becomes impossible, for the | ego believes that to forgive another is to lose him. For it is only |
Tx:15.71 | lose him. For it is only by attack without forgiveness that the | ego can ensure the guilt which holds all its relationships together. |
Tx:15.72 | Yet they only seem to be together. For relationships, to the | ego, mean only that bodies are together. It is always physical |
Tx:15.72 | that bodies are together. It is always physical closeness that the | ego demands, and it does not object where the mind goes or what |
Tx:15.72 | as the body is there to receive its sacrifice, it is content. To the | ego, the mind is private, and only the body can be shared. Ideas |
Tx:15.73 | Suffering and sacrifice are the gifts with which the | ego would “bless” all unions. And those who are united at its altar |
Tx:15.73 | at the ego's altar far exceeds your awareness of it. For what the | ego really wants, you do not realize. |
Tx:15.74 | can be sure that you have formed a special relationship which the | ego has “blessed,” for anger is its blessing. Anger takes many |
Tx:15.74 | someone feel guilty, and this attempt is the only basis which the | ego accepts for special relationships. Guilt is the only need the ego |
Tx:15.74 | ego accepts for special relationships. Guilt is the only need the | ego has, and as long as you identify with it, guilt will remain |
Tx:15.76 | will see safety in guilt and danger in communication. For the | ego will always teach that loneliness is solved by guilt and that |
Tx:15.85 | As the | ego would limit your perception of your brothers to the body, so |
Tx:15.86 | what you think you want. The body is the symbol of the | ego, as the ego is the symbol of the separation. And both are nothing |
Tx:15.86 | what you think you want. The body is the symbol of the ego, as the | ego is the symbol of the separation. And both are nothing more than |
Tx:15.87 | given you. But to see this, it is necessary to give up every use the | ego has for the body and to accept the fact that the ego has no |
Tx:15.87 | every use the ego has for the body and to accept the fact that the | ego has no purpose you would share with it. For the ego would limit |
Tx:15.87 | fact that the ego has no purpose you would share with it. For the | ego would limit everyone to a body for its purposes, and while you |
Tx:15.87 | never be accomplished. Yet you have surely recognized that the | ego, whose goals are altogether unattainable, will strive for them |
Tx:15.88 | to divide your strength between Heaven and hell, God and the | ego, and release your power unto creation, which is the only purpose |
Tx:15.88 | you. Love would always give increase. Limits are demanded by the | ego, representing its demands to make little and ineffectual. Limit |
Tx:15.89 | limited, and only those whom you would see without the limits the | ego would impose on them can offer you the gift of freedom. |
Tx:15.91 | and renounce its use for separation and attack which the | ego sees in it, you will learn you have no need of a body at all. In |
Tx:15.92 | it is the Holy Spirit's function to use them both, though not as the | ego uses them. This is the season when you would celebrate my birth |
Tx:15.95 | mistake. It seems like many, but it is all the same. For though the | ego takes many forms, it is always the same idea. What is not love |
Tx:15.95 | is simply this—you believe that it is possible to be host to the | ego or hostage to God. This is the choice you think you have, and the |
Tx:15.97 | As host to the | ego, you believe that you can give all your guilt away whatever |
Tx:15.97 | payment does not seem to be yours. While it is obvious that the | ego does demand payment, it never seems to be demanding it of |
Tx:15.97 | demanding it of you. For you are unwilling to recognize that the | ego, which you invited, is treacherous only to those who think they |
Tx:15.97 | is treacherous only to those who think they are its host. The | ego will never let you perceive this, since this recognition would |
Tx:15.97 | dawns clearly, you will not be deceived by any form the | ego takes to protect itself from your sight. |
Tx:15.98 | demands! For total love would demand total sacrifice. And so the | ego seems to demand less of you than God, and of the two is judged as |
Tx:15.100 | You will not succeed in being partial hostage to the | ego, for it keeps no bargains and would leave you nothing. [Nor can |
Tx:16.1 | When He relates through you, He does not relate through the | ego to another ego. He does not join in pain, knowing that healing |
Tx:16.1 | relates through you, He does not relate through the ego to another | ego. He does not join in pain, knowing that healing pain is not |
Tx:16.2 | The clearest proof that empathy as the | ego uses it is destructive lies in the fact that it is applied only |
Tx:16.2 | what is like itself.] Make no mistake about this maneuver; the | ego always empathizes to weaken, and to weaken is always to |
Tx:16.44 | the attempt to make guilty is always directed against God. For the | ego would have you see Him, and Him alone, as guilty, leaving the |
Tx:16.44 | appeal to those unwilling to relinquish guilt. The “dynamics” of the | ego are clearest here, for counting on the attraction of this |
Tx:16.46 | which He denied. It is essential to the preservation of the | ego that you believe this specialness is not hell, but Heaven. For |
Tx:16.46 | that you believe this specialness is not hell, but Heaven. For the | ego would never have you see that separation can only be loss, |
Tx:16.47 | completion. There can be no disagreement on this, because both the | ego and the Holy Spirit accept it. They are, however, in complete |
Tx:16.47 | lies first in union and then in the extension of union. To the | ego, completion lies in triumph and in the extension of the “victory” |
Tx:16.47 | From this it follows that union, which is a condition in which the | ego cannot interfere, must be hell. |
Tx:16.48 | The special relationship is a strange and unnatural | ego device for joining hell and Heaven and making them |
Tx:16.49 | Most curious of all is the concept of the self which the | ego fosters in the special relationship. This “self” seeks the |
Tx:16.50 | The “better” self the | ego seeks is always one that is more special. And whoever seems to |
Tx:16.50 | him. Where both partners see this special self in each other, the | ego sees “a union made in Heaven.” For neither one will recognize |
Tx:16.51 | of hell lies only in the terrible attraction of guilt, which the | ego holds out to those who place their faith in littleness. The |
Tx:16.51 | ego's goals, is to destroy reality and substitute illusion. For the | ego is itself an illusion, and only illusions can be the |
Tx:16.59 | special relationship is the sign that you equate yourself with the | ego and not with God. For the special relationship has value only |
Tx:16.59 | not with God. For the special relationship has value only to the | ego. To the ego unless a relationship has special value, it has |
Tx:16.59 | For the special relationship has value only to the ego. To the | ego unless a relationship has special value, it has no meaning, |
Tx:16.60 | You do not recognize that this is its real appeal, for the | ego has taught you that freedom lies in it. Yet the closer you look |
Tx:16.62 | would enter into it. Yet the special relationship which the | ego seeks does not include even one whole individual. For the ego |
Tx:16.62 | the ego seeks does not include even one whole individual. For the | ego wants but part of him and sees only this part and nothing |
Tx:16.67 | Be glad you have escaped the mockery of salvation which the | ego offered you and look not back with longing on the travesty it |
Tx:16.72 | on the past. It is completely savage and completely insane. For the | ego remembers everything that you have done which offended it and |
Tx:16.72 | to act out its hate are fantasies of your destruction. For the | ego holds the past against you, and in your escape from the past, |
Tx:16.72 | justly merit. Yet without your alliance in your own destruction, the | ego could not hold you to the past. |
Tx:16.74 | of love is not profoundly shaken. Yet the one thing which the | ego never allows to reach awareness is that the special relationship |
Tx:16.79 | of Atonement arising from His Love. Be an ally of God and not the | ego in seeking how Atonement can come to you. His help suffices, for |
Tx:17.20 | be undone. For separation must be corrected where it was made. The | ego seeks to “resolve” its problems, not at their source, but where |
Tx:17.22 | it clear to you. God's Son is one. Whom God has joined as one, the | ego cannot break apart. The spark of holiness must be safe, |
Tx:17.24 | for entering into a continuing, unholy alliance with the | ego against the present. For the present is forgiveness. |
Tx:17.25 | all the same. For you can never choose except between God and the | ego. Thought systems are but true or false, and all their attributes |
Tx:17.29 | Spirit, Who was God's answer to the separation. For although the | ego did not understand what had been created, it was aware of |
Tx:17.30 | The whole defense system which the | ego evolved to protect the separation from the Holy Spirit was in |
Tx:17.31 | The | ego is hyperalert to threat, and the part of your mind into which the |
Tx:17.31 | is hyperalert to threat, and the part of your mind into which the | ego was accepted is very anxious to preserve its reason as it sees |
Tx:17.32 | of delusions. You recognize, at least in general terms, that the | ego is insane. Yet the special relationship still seems to you |
Tx:17.34 | has the most imposing and deceptive frame of all the defenses the | ego uses. Its thought system is offered here, surrounded by a frame |
Tx:17.37 | seen as what it represents. For as the whole thought system of the | ego lies in its gifts, so the whole of Heaven lies in this instant, |
Tx:17.46 | The temptation of the | ego becomes extremely intense with this shift in goals. For the |
Tx:17.47 | the goal more slowly, for the contrast would be obscured and the | ego given time to reinterpret each slow step according to its liking. |
Tx:17.49 | Now the | ego counsels thus—substitute for this another relationship to |
Tx:17.58 | anything. The reason for this disorganized approach is evident. The | ego does not know what it wants to come of it. It is aware of what |
Tx:17.59 | line. And now the only judgment left to make is whether or not the | ego likes it—is it acceptable, or does it call for vengeance? The |
Tx:17.61 | again, you see the opposite of the ego's way of looking, for the | ego believes the situation brings the experience. The Holy Spirit |
Tx:17.62 | what you can give. Yet this is so only from the viewpoint of the | ego, for the ego believes in “solving” conflict through fragmentation |
Tx:17.62 | can give. Yet this is so only from the viewpoint of the ego, for the | ego believes in “solving” conflict through fragmentation and does |
Tx:17.63 | with any aspect of the situation which seems to be difficult, the | ego will attempt to take this aspect elsewhere and resolve it there. |
Tx:18.1 | is to exclude, and substitution is the strongest defense the | ego has for separation. |
Tx:18.2 | The Holy Spirit never uses substitutes. Where the | ego perceives one person as a replacement for another, the Holy |
Tx:18.2 | everything seems to come between the fragmented relationships the | ego sponsors to destroy. |
Tx:18.14 | whatever seemed to attack you and change it into a tribute to your | ego, which was outraged by the “attack.” This would not be your |
Tx:18.14 | would not be your wish unless you saw yourself as one with the | ego, which always looks upon itself and therefore on you as under |
Tx:18.15 | they are a way of looking at the world and changing it to suit the | ego better. They provide striking examples both of the ego's |
Tx:18.32 | to give the Holy Spirit what He does not ask, or you will add the | ego unto Him and confuse the two. He asks but little. It is He who |
Tx:18.73 | Within this kingdom the | ego rules, and cruelly. And to defend this little speck of dust, it |
Tx:19.2 | him to the Holy Spirit and releasing him from every demand your | ego would make of him. Thus do you see him free, and in this vision |
Tx:19.21 | Any attempt to reinterpret sin as error is always indefensible to the | ego. The idea of sin is wholly sacrosanct to its thought system and |
Tx:19.22 | It can indeed be said the | ego made its world on sin. Only in such a world could everything be |
Tx:19.22 | For sin has changed creation from an idea of God to an ideal the | ego wants; a world it rules, made up of bodies, mindless and |
Tx:19.23 | what the Son of God has made himself to be and what he is. To the | ego, this is no mistake. For this is its reality; this is the |
Tx:19.24 | that is all it is. Perhaps you would be tempted to agree with the | ego that it is far better to be sinful than mistaken. Yet think you |
Tx:19.25 | and will be forever desirable. As an essential part of what the | ego thinks you are, you will always want it. And only an avenger |
Tx:19.26 | The | ego does not think it possible that love, not fear, is really called |
Tx:19.26 | not fear, is really called upon by sin and always answers. For the | ego brings sin to fear, demanding punishment. Yet punishment is but |
Tx:19.56 | the symbol of your sin, and so I had to die instead of you. To the | ego sin means death, and so Atonement is achieved through murder. |
Tx:19.58 | store and make your lives complete. This is completion, as the | ego sees it. For guilt creeps in where happiness has been removed and |
Tx:19.71 | is essential that this relationship be understood, for it is one the | ego sees as proof of sin. It is not really punitive at all. It is |
Tx:19.73 | which they are invested is given by the sender and the receiver. The | ego and the Holy Spirit both recognize this, and both also recognize |
Tx:19.73 | are the same. The Holy Spirit tells you this with joy. The | ego hides it, for it would keep you unaware of it. Who would send |
Tx:19.75 | madness, and believe not the impossible is true. Forget not that the | ego has dedicated the body to the goal of sin and places in it all |
Tx:19.76 | from the Father and offering His messages unto the Son. Like the | ego, the Holy Spirit is both the sender and the receiver. For what is |
Tx:19.76 | seeking itself along the way and finding what it seeks. So does the | ego find the death it seeks, returning it to you. |
Tx:19.77 | to it and seek it out. And so it is with death. Made by the | ego, its dark shadow falls across all living things because the ego |
Tx:19.77 | the ego, its dark shadow falls across all living things because the | ego is the “enemy” of life. |
Tx:19.79 | not its source. And death is the result of the thought we call the | ego as surely as life is the result of the Thought of God. |
Tx:19.80 | From the | ego came sin and guilt and death, in opposition to life and innocence |
Tx:19.81 | glitter of guilt you laid upon the body would kill it. For what the | ego loves, it kills for its obedience. But what obeys it not, it |
Tx:19.85 | Under the dusty edge of its distorted world, the | ego would lay the Son of God, slain by its orders, proof in his decay |
Tx:19.88 | of fear comes over it, remember it is always for one reason—the | ego has perceived it as a symbol of fear, a sign of sin and death. |
Tx:19.92 | sovereignty is but the solemn vow, the promise made in secret to the | ego never to lift this veil, not to approach it nor even to suspect |
Tx:19.92 | suspect that it is there. This is the secret bargain made with the | ego to keep what lies beyond the veil forever blotted out and |
Tx:19.93 | cruel, and tyrannical. You are no more afraid of death than of the | ego. These are your chosen friends. For in your secret alliance |
Tx:19.95 | the “holy” waxen image of death, and the fear of vengeance of the | ego you swore in blood not to desert, all rise and bid you not to |
Tx:19.97 | not that you came this far together. And it was surely not the | ego that led you here. No obstacle to peace can be surmounted through |
Tx:20.17 | Adjustments of any kind are of the | ego. For it is the ego's fixed belief that all relationships depend |
Tx:20.17 | there are no interferences, are always seen as dangerous. The | ego is the self-appointed mediator of all relationships, making |
Tx:20.20 | you. This sickly picture of yourself is carefully preserved by the | ego, whose image it is and which it loves, and placed outside you in |
Tx:20.21 | The world the holy see is one with them, just as the world the | ego looks upon is like itself. The world the holy see is beautiful |
Tx:20.39 | It is impossible to overestimate your brother's value. Only the | ego does this, but all it means is that it wants the other for |
Tx:20.48 | for all that it could offer is seen as valueless. Homeless, the | ego seeks as many bodies as it can collect to place its idols in and |
Tx:20.61 | meaningfully be invested with attributes of Christ or of the | ego. Either must be an error, for both would place the attributes |
Tx:20.62 | The body is the means by which the | ego tries to make the unholy relationship seem real. The unholy |
Tx:21.20 | in it the whole exchange of separation for salvation. All that the | ego is, is an idea that it is possible that things should happen to |
Tx:21.24 | We have already said that wishful thinking is how the | ego deals with what it wants to make it so. There is no better |
Tx:21.41 | you would not be fearful to admit. Fear in association with sin the | ego deems quite appropriate and smiles approvingly. It has no fear to |
Tx:21.42 | Remember that the | ego is not alone. Its rule is tempered, and its unknown “enemy,” |
Tx:21.42 | its unknown “enemy,” Whom it cannot even see, it fears. Loudly the | ego tells you not to look inward, for if you do, your eyes will light |
Tx:21.42 | not the ego's hidden fear, nor yours who serve it. Loudly indeed the | ego claims it is—too loudly and too often. For underneath this |
Tx:21.42 | For underneath this constant shout and frantic proclamation, the | ego is not certain it is so. Beneath your fear to look within because |
Tx:21.42 | within because of sin is yet another fear and one which makes the | ego tremble. |
Tx:21.43 | looked within and saw no sin? This “fearful” question is one the | ego never asks. And you who ask it now are threatening the ego's |
Tx:21.43 | themselves from their belief that their identity lies in the | ego. A holy relationship is one in which you join with what is part |
Tx:21.44 | insanity and on to reason. And what your reason tells you now, the | ego would not hear. The Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted by the |
Tx:21.44 | The Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted by the part of your mind the | ego knows not of. No more did you. And yet this part with which you |
Tx:21.45 | of release to come to you. And now you recognize that it was not the | ego that joined the Holy Spirit's purpose, and so there must be |
Tx:21.47 | And now the | ego is afraid. Yet what it hears in terror, the other part hears as |
Tx:21.47 | as the sweetest music—the song it longed to hear since first the | ego came into your minds. The ego's weakness is its strength. The |
Tx:21.48 | What it would keep apart has met and joined, and looks upon the | ego unafraid. Little children, innocent of sin, follow in gladness |
Tx:21.50 | of it needs your help because it is your choice. Listen to what the | ego says and see what it directs you see, and it is sure that you |
Tx:21.51 | for help, the only one It makes. Miracles seem unnatural to the | ego because it does not understand how separate minds can influence |
Tx:21.53 | such is clearly not the ego's “reasoning.” Its alien nature to the | ego is proof you will not find the answer there. Yet if it must be |
Tx:21.56 | reason in insanity, for it depends entirely on reason's absence. The | ego never uses it because it does not realize that it exists. The |
Tx:21.58 | and belief have shifted, and you have asked the question which the | ego will never ask. Does not your reason tell you now the question |
Tx:22.16 | opposite of illusions is not disillusionment, but truth. Only to the | ego, to which truth is meaningless, do they appear to be the only |
Tx:22.20 | Both reason and the | ego will tell you this, but what they make of it is not the same. |
Tx:22.20 | will tell you this, but what they make of it is not the same. The | ego will assure you now that it is impossible for you to see no guilt |
Tx:22.21 | period in this course, for here the separation of you and the | ego must be made complete. For if you have the means to let the |
Tx:22.21 | And through their use will you gain faith in them. Yet to the | ego this must be impossible, and no one undertakes to do what holds |
Tx:22.29 | thought system is the beginning of its undoing. For reason and the | ego are contradictory. Nor is it possible for them to co-exist in |
Tx:22.29 | is not ambiguous. It can be understood. And here do reason and the | ego separate to go their different ways. |
Tx:22.30 | errors. It looks on nothing that can be corrected. Thus does the | ego damn and reason save. |
Tx:22.32 | Only the form of error attracts the | ego. Meaning it does not recognize and does not know if it is there |
Tx:22.32 | their form, can be corrected. Sin is but error in a special form the | ego venerates. It would preserve all errors and make them sins. For |
Tx:22.46 | Consider what the | ego wants defenses for—always to justify what goes against the |
Tx:22.65 | makes all fear impossible? Do not attempt to keep a little of the | ego with this gift. For it was given you to be used and not |
Tx:22.65 | and not obscured. What teaches you you cannot separate, denies the | ego. Let truth decide if you be different or the same and teach you |
Tx:23.7 | is cherished. Conflict within you must imply that you believe the | ego has the power to be victorious. Why else would you identify |
Tx:23.7 | Why else would you identify with it? Surely you realize the | ego is at war with God. Certain it is it has no enemy. Yet just as |
Tx:23.8 | if it were possible, would be your death. Is this a victory? The | ego always marches to defeat because it thinks that triumph over |
Tx:23.9 | Be certain that it is impossible God and the | ego, or yourself and it, will ever meet. You seem to meet and |
Tx:23.9 | You meet at a mistake—an error in your self-appraisal. The | ego joins with an illusion of yourself you share with it. And yet |
Tx:23.9 | in nothingness; two are as meaningless as one or as a thousand. The | ego joins with nothing, being nothing. The victory it seeks is |
Tx:23.26 | seems to be siding with it to overcome His Son. Think not the | ego will enable you to find escape from what it wants. That is the |
Tx:23.26 | That is the function of this course, which does not value what the | ego cherishes. |
Tx:23.27 | The | ego values only what it takes. This leads to the fourth law of |

C:20.46 | to believe in your ability and mightiness. Remember not your | ego concerns and remember instead the warmth of the embrace. Remember |
C:23.8 | rather than as a being existing in relationship. This comes from | ego rather than from the true Self. |

C:29.3 | of being of service to God. This is a symptom of the reign of the | ego and its ability to both aggrandize your notion of yourself, and |

C:31.25 | able to keep truth a secret, one of the most ridiculous ideas of the | ego thought system. |
C:31.27 | is being of one truth, and how can you be of anything less? Only the | ego sprang from a lie, the lie of separation that created the |
C:31.35 | extension of mind into a realm in which experience can occur. Your | ego has made of this something different than it is. Rather than |
C:31.35 | than extension of mind, your experience has become a projection of | ego. This can change. |
T1:1.9 | A mind and heart joined in union abolishes the | ego. The ego-mind was what was once in charge of all your thoughts. |
T1:1.9 | ego-mind was what was once in charge of all your thoughts. Since the | ego is incapable of learning the ego-mind had to be circumvented in |
T1:4.8 | The ego-mind, in its imitation of creation, put the “you” of the | ego or the body at the center of its thought system and from this |
T1:5.10 | is the only cause of your experience here. When released from the | ego thought system, the heart becomes the determiner of what you |
T1:9.12 | In the broadest of terms, this is already happening. As the | ego has become threatened and allowed the coming of guidance, males |
T1:9.12 | both have begun to work with the parts of themselves over which the | ego has the least control. For males this has most often meant a |
T1:9.12 | a turning away from the intellectual realm, which was ruled by the | ego, to the realm of feelings. For females this has most often meant |
T1:9.13 | ask you to cull from your own recent experience. What has caused the | ego to become more apparent to you as you have learned this Course? |
T1:9.13 | feelings called into question or your ideas? And what guise did the | ego take as it rallied to your aide? Did it require you to retreat or |
T1:9.14 | reaction, is cognizant with your old pattern, or the pattern of the | ego. What breaks the ego's hold will be the second reaction, or the |
T1:9.15 | changing. You will not see so much to value in what has called your | ego into action and will turn away from it. |
T2:1.3 | thing is capable of being a treasure or being treasured are of the | ego. We will instead assume that you have moved beyond these ego |
T2:1.3 | of the ego. We will instead assume that you have moved beyond these | ego concerns and explore the realm of internal treasures. |
T2:1.4 | Those of you who have moved beyond the realm of the | ego, in your fear of returning to it, often turn away from internal |
T2:1.4 | internal treasures that you believe, when realized, might feed the | ego. Despite many observations within this Course regarding desire, |
T2:1.13 | Ego desires cause one to think of a grand piano. Thoughts joined in | |
T2:1.13 | one to think of a grand piano. Thoughts joined in unity hear music. | Ego desires cause one to think of an elaborately framed painting. |

T2:7.6 | This source is the | ego. Even now, the ego will take every opportunity that arises to |
T2:7.6 | This source is the ego. Even now, the | ego will take every opportunity that arises to prove to you that |
T2:7.6 | should be resisted. As long as you continue to listen to your | ego you will not understand giving and receiving as one and will not |
T2:7.19 | learn to discriminate, to separate the false from the true, for your | ego thoughts cannot long abide in the holy place of your heart. Then, |
T2:9.1 | that this desire is not present in all relationships. It is only the | ego that stands between desire and the meeting of desire, needs and |
T2:9.2 | are many other means of practice that assist you in bypassing your | ego mind. Some practices more commonly thought of as tools might be |
T2:9.2 | mind such as affirmations. These tools are all means of releasing | ego mind and inviting the one mind, or unity into the present moment. |
T2:10.8 | your ability lies in the Christ in you. You might think of the | ego as the hand that swats away this knowing. |
T2:10.9 | The | ego is the teacher you have relied upon when you have relied upon |
T2:10.10 | the learner here. What need is there for a computer brain or for the | ego to be teacher when the learner in you is the all-powerful? The |
T2:10.10 | knowing that already exists, the memory that is swatted away by the | ego. |
T2:10.12 | But as long as you continue to attempt to learn with your | ego, or in other words, as long as you would continue to attempt to |
T2:10.13 | words, by ending the separated state which is the state in which the | ego exists. The end of the separated state or the ego, is the |
T2:10.13 | state in which the ego exists. The end of the separated state or the | ego, is the beginning of your ability to hear only one voice, the |
T2:10.16 | your desire for a static state would make you rather listen to your | ego as it prescribes learning for certain circumstances that would be |
T2:11.2 | you now know that struggle of any kind alerts you to the presence of | ego, you will continue to do battle with the ego rather than leaving |
T2:11.2 | you to the presence of ego, you will continue to do battle with the | ego rather than leaving it forever behind. |
T2:11.3 | Doing battle with the | ego has become the preoccupation of many gifted and learned people. |
T2:11.3 | battle that in your imaginings has extended even to the angels. The | ego is the dragon that must be slain, the evil of the despot to be |
T2:11.4 | a peace that begins and ends with ceasing to do battle with the | ego. As the ego has been the known identity of your existence until |
T2:11.4 | that begins and ends with ceasing to do battle with the ego. As the | ego has been the known identity of your existence until now, it will, |
T2:11.4 | be of service to you and your expression, there is no service the | ego can do you. The ego is the one untruth, given many names and many |
T2:11.4 | you and your expression, there is no service the ego can do you. The | ego is the one untruth, given many names and many faces and the only |
T2:11.7 | with your understanding that all that is real is shared does the | ego lose its power. The ego was made from the belief in separation |
T2:11.7 | that all that is real is shared does the ego lose its power. The | ego was made from the belief in separation and all that followed from |
T2:11.7 | relationship. Separation is all that opposes relationship, and the | ego is all that opposes your true identity. |
T2:11.8 | Yet, as has already been said, the | ego, having been with you from your earliest remembering, will |
T2:11.10 | yourself and your world will be difficult you are listening to your | ego. The Christ in you knows not of difficulty. |
T2:11.12 | separation without relationship, then the image of yourself the | ego has put forth would have been a true image. But as life cannot |
T2:11.12 | choice was not available and did not overturn the laws of God. The | ego is but your belief that this has occurred; that what could never |
T2:11.14 | have given your relationship with your separate identity the name of | ego. Here, we are asking you to choose the one real relationship and |
T2:11.15 | of doing battle can only remain if you remain convinced that the | ego is real. As long as you believe that the ego is real, you will |
T2:11.15 | convinced that the ego is real. As long as you believe that the | ego is real, you will feel as if there are two identities that exist |
T2:11.15 | will never actually be a battle going on between Christ and the | ego, but you will perceive that such battles exist. You will be prone |
T2:11.15 | self with Christ acting as conscience and defender of good and the | ego acting as devil and defender of evil. This is nonsense, or but a |
T2:11.17 | I have said that the | ego will remain with you as the identity you have learned since birth |
T2:11.17 | While you have learned much here, you may be thinking that your | ego is still very much with you, and wondering, if you have not yet |
T2:12.11 | the relationship of all that would bring the seed to fruition. The | ego could be here compared to a gardener who believes that the seed |
T2:12.11 | light and air, the seed would but remain a source of struggle. The | ego would hang on to what is already accomplished within you, never |
T2:12.11 | it express, through relationship, all that it is. As valuable as the | ego would tell you that you are, it still would thwart you being who |
T2:13.6 | that the seriousness with which you once looked at life is of the | ego. Drape your persona in a mantle of peace and joy. Let who you are |
T3:1.1 | represented an ego-self who you believed yourself to be. Now the | ego has been separated from the personal self so that you may claim |
T3:1.3 | The false representation of the | ego as the self is what has led to the world you see. A true |
T3:1.6 | You who have spent most of your life representing the | ego have but given a face to illusion and made it seem real. When I |
T3:1.6 | and made it seem real. When I say that you have represented the | ego, what I mean is that the personal self, as represented by your |
T3:1.9 | To have believed that the personal self, as a representation of the | ego, was who you were, was an illusion that blocked awareness of your |
T3:1.13 | as this self has been so long bound to the ego-self. Even with the | ego once and finally vanquished, the patterns of the ego's thought |
T3:2.5 | While you have believed you are the self of the | ego, you have believed in a need to both glorify the self and |
T3:2.6 | self can begin to represent the truth for it leaves untruth, or the | ego, behind. It is only this one, unaltered Self that is the truth of |
T3:3.1 | you. What cannot be recognized or known cannot be loved. While your | ego has not been loveable, you have always been. Here is where you |
T3:3.2 | characteristics are nothing more than a persona that has served the | ego faithfully. All of your traits have been chosen either in |
T3:3.2 | they be in accord or in opposition, their source has still been the | ego. These traits, whether you see them as good or bad or somewhere |
T3:3.10 | but who you are. All that was ever other than who you are was the | ego. The ego is gone. The ego was simply your idea of who you were. |
T3:3.10 | you are. All that was ever other than who you are was the ego. The | ego is gone. The ego was simply your idea of who you were. This idea |
T3:3.10 | was ever other than who you are was the ego. The ego is gone. The | ego was simply your idea of who you were. This idea was a complex set |
T3:4.4 | The | ego made such ideas necessary for the idea of the ego was “wrong” or |
T3:4.4 | The ego made such ideas necessary for the idea of the | ego was “wrong” or inaccurate. The only way to bring that inaccuracy |
T3:4.5 | with a foundation that would not support it was the folly that the | ego made of life. The only way for such an error to be seen as an |
T3:4.7 | You can dismantle the | ego and build another in its place and this has at times been done in |
T3:4.7 | as in military training, or in cases of great abuse when a second | ego personality is developed to save the first. The ego has also been |
T3:4.7 | when a second ego personality is developed to save the first. The | ego has also been dismantled and rebuilt over time and been seen as |
T3:5.1 | it rush to find the easiest and most available replacement (the | ego or that which has become familiar, if not known). While few of |
T3:5.1 | before reached the emptiness caused by the complete absence of the | ego, just as few of you have never felt some sort of absence. All the |
T3:5.8 | series of generations passing. What this means is that in each the | ego will die and the Self be reborn to life eternal. Without rebirth |
T3:6.4 | still in the process of learning that your Self is not vengeful. The | ego has given you many reasons to be distrustful of your Self, |
T3:6.4 | Self, beginning with the idea of your abandonment here. Since the | ego is a chosen self and a learned self, there has always been just |
T3:6.4 | the ego's thought system to keep within you the idea of a self the | ego is not. Thus has the ego had a self to blame for everything, |
T3:6.4 | to keep within you the idea of a self the ego is not. Thus has the | ego had a self to blame for everything, including your very |
T3:6.5 | chosen to introduce an idea of such fallacy that it rivals only the | ego in its destructive potential. Bitterness is to your heart what |
T3:6.5 | in its destructive potential. Bitterness is to your heart what the | ego has been to your mind. It is the one false idea that has entered |
T3:6.5 | the human and the divine. It exists not in some but in all, as the | ego has existed not in some but in all. Like the ego, it has not |
T3:6.5 | but in all, as the ego has existed not in some but in all. Like the | ego, it has not caused you to be unlovable or unrecognizable. But it |
T3:6.5 | you to be unlovable or unrecognizable. But it has become, like the | ego, so much a part of your reality that it must, like the ego, be |
T3:6.5 | like the ego, so much a part of your reality that it must, like the | ego, be consciously left behind. |
T3:7.2 | to see the power of thought. If you can believe that you created the | ego with a thought or an idea, you can see where the power of thought |
T3:7.5 | that made you incapable of representing who you are in truth was the | ego. The only thing within the human experience that deprived the |
T3:7.5 | experience that deprived the human experience of meaning was the | ego. Thus, with the ego gone, you are perfectly capable of |
T3:7.5 | deprived the human experience of meaning was the ego. Thus, with the | ego gone, you are perfectly capable of representing the truth of who |
T3:8.3 | bitterness has been a source of resistance as strong as that of the | ego and more deeply felt. As I have said, bitterness is to your heart |
T3:8.3 | deeply felt. As I have said, bitterness is to your heart what the | ego has been to your mind. Thus bitterness has to do with your |
T3:8.3 | has to do with your feelings more so than your thoughts. The | ego but played upon these feelings, using them as building blocks for |
T3:9.3 | contained within it and held together by the learned ideas of the | ego thought system. Now you must imagine yourself walking outside of |
T3:10.8 | This is the practice of ceasing to listen to the voice of the | ego. While the ego is gone, many of its messages remain within your |
T3:10.8 | the practice of ceasing to listen to the voice of the ego. While the | ego is gone, many of its messages remain within your thoughts, like |
T3:10.14 | doing now is much like translating the learned thought system of the | ego into the thought system of the Christ-Self that you but think you |
T3:10.14 | you dwell in the House of Truth, if you do not resist unlearning the | ego thought system, the thought system of your true Self will quite |
T3:14.1 | The death of the | ego thought system has made way for the birth of the thought system |
T3:14.1 | birth of the thought system of the truth. The thought system of the | ego was based on fear. In this time of translation from one thought |
T3:14.1 | change is the change from the foundation of fear, the basis of the | ego thought system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the thought |
T3:14.1 | the thought system of truth. While the foundation of fear, like the | ego, will have left you now, a pattern of behaving fearfully may |
T3:14.2 | clear. Because you now are translating the thought system of the | ego into the thought system of the truth, you will begin to believe |
T3:14.11 | the illusion from which it came. Remember that bitterness, like the | ego, has existed in all. If your brother or sister would not give up |
T3:15.8 | With the death of the | ego, special relationships too have breathed their last. As I said |
T3:15.11 | for the finalizing of the translation of the thought system of the | ego to the thought system of the truth. As we have said before, it is |
T3:15.13 | learned, what this Course did was bypass the way of learning of the | ego and call upon the Christ in you to learn anew. That learning put |
T3:16.3 | These have been the ways of creation in the thought system of the | ego, ways that have brought much advancement to the forms you occupy |
T3:16.3 | their nature in the slightest measure. All the effort of the | ego has not brought an end to suffering or strife, nor made of this |
T3:16.8 | your mind and heart will aid the translation of this aspect of the | ego thought system to the thought system of the truth. |
T3:16.16 | All of these temptations worked together in the thought system of the | ego and created patterns that caused them to only seem to be |
T3:19.4 | things have always had as their cause the thought system of the | ego or the bitterness of the heart. As cause and effect are one, |
T3:19.4 | seen in physical form without a corresponding cause birthed in the | ego thought system or the bitterness of the heart. |
T4:2.12 | Surely many desire to be “the best” as a means to glorify the | ego, but few of these succeed for the ego cannot be glorified. |
T4:2.12 | as a means to glorify the ego, but few of these succeed for the | ego cannot be glorified. |
T4:2.13 | You would not be here if you were still interested in glorifying the | ego, but you also are not yet completely certain of your Self and in |

D:4.16 | referred to both the ego and to the ego's thought system, but the | ego is quite rightly seen as a system in and of itself. It is thought |
D:4.16 | case with the system of learning through contrast, since when the | ego entered with its false ideas and judgment, contrast did not |
D:4.16 | the lessons it was meant to provide. In addition, believing the | ego had become an externalized self took you, the true Self and the |
D:5.2 | you was meant to represent. It was in much the same way that the | ego came to represent you. |
D:5.3 | and a false representation. While the false representation of the | ego self led to the world you see, it did not change the truth but |
D:5.8 | Obviously—as you have been told that the | ego has represented a false self—it is possible to misrepresent. |

D:Day1.6 | Now that you have moved beyond the thought system of the | ego self, you look back on it and realize why you could not know your |

D:Day1.6 | You were required to make a choice between the thought system of the | ego and the thought system of unity. This choice was made, and thus |
D:Day2.2 | You have let go the | ego, re-viewed your life, unlearned previous patterns, and now see |
D:Day3.24 | This is the way fears operate. They operate in the pattern of the | ego, a pattern that was learned, a pattern that was emphasized and |
D:Day3.24 | It is the pattern of the ego's survival, and even though the | ego is no longer with you, the pattern remains because what you |
D:Day3.28 | —not one of divine design, but one of the thought system of the | ego. It was a trick to keep you constantly striving for more, a trick |

Tx:4.31 | which actually refers to a condition in which the delusion of the | ego's reality is threatened. This produces either ego deflation or |
Tx:4.32 | for it. That is why the concept of “getting” arose in the | ego's thought system. All appetites are “getting” mechanisms, |
Tx:4.32 | system. All appetites are “getting” mechanisms, representing the | ego's need to confirm itself. This is as true of bodily appetites as |
Tx:4.35 | of magic. The “battle for survival” is nothing more than the | ego's struggle to preserve itself and its interpretation of its own |
Tx:4.50 | ambivalence, and this kind of wanting is wholly without the | ego's “drive to get.” There is a kind of experience which is so |
Tx:4.54 | not exist and which therefore makes it profoundly afraid. In the | ego's language, remember, “to have” and “to be” are different, but |
Tx:4.60 | of the ego and need not be. You can be as vigilant against the | ego's dictates as for them. |

Tx:4.70 | A major source of the | ego's off-balanced state is its lack of discrimination between |
Tx:4.70 | only in terms of threat or non-threat to itself. In one sense the | ego's fear of the idea of God is at least logical, since this idea |
Tx:4.71 | The body is the | ego's home by its own election. It is the only identification with |
Tx:4.75 | it hopes to hide the real question and keep it out of mind. The | ego's characteristic busyness with non-essentials is for precisely |
Tx:4.96 | The specificity of the | ego's thinking, then, results in a spurious kind of generalization |
Tx:4.103 | else because it is too often misused as a way of exerting the | ego's domination over other egos, rather than as a real experiment in |
Tx:4.105 | back. Rehabilitation is not concerned either with the | ego's fight for control or its need to avoid and withdraw. You can do |
Tx:5.35 | alone, your meditations will frighten you because by adopting the | ego's viewpoint you are undertaking an ego-alien journey with the ego |
Tx:5.36 | of which the Holy Spirit reminds you is in direct opposition to the | ego's notions, because true and false perceptions are themselves |
Tx:5.37 | Time is a belief of the ego, so the lower mind, which is the | ego's domain, accepts it without question. The only aspect of time |
Tx:5.38 | His ability to deal with symbols enables Him to work against the | ego's beliefs in its own language. His equal ability to look beyond |
Tx:5.39 | invariably frightens the ego because it is so calm. Peace is the | ego's greatest enemy because, according to its interpretation of |
Tx:5.41 | to his will because part of his will is still for God. Despite the | ego's attempts to conceal this part, it is still much stronger than |
Tx:5.59 | concepts will become clearer and more personally meaningful if the | ego's use of guilt is clarified. The ego has a purpose, just as the |
Tx:5.59 | clarified. The ego has a purpose, just as the Holy Spirit has. The | ego's purpose is fear because only the fearful can be |
Tx:5.59 | purpose is fear because only the fearful can be egotistic. The | ego's logic is as impeccable as that of the Holy Spirit, because your |
Tx:5.60 | except to the ego, but do not underestimate the power of the | ego's belief in it. This is the belief from which all guilt really |
Tx:5.62 | a delusional system, and it speaks for it. Listening to the | ego's voice means that you believe it is possible to attack God. |
Tx:5.64 | act of assault. This is an interpretation which is necessary to the | ego's survival, because as soon as you regard sin as a lack you |
Tx:5.72 | thus ensure that the future will remain like the past. This is the | ego's continuity and gives it a false sense of security through the |
Tx:5.74 | the lower courts' decisions about the laws of this world. The | ego's decisions are always wrong, because they are based on a |
Tx:5.75 | We need cite only a few examples to see how the | ego's interpretations have misled you. A favorite ego quotation is |
Tx:5.79 | with you. Remember the symbolic reference we made before to the | ego's dark glass, and remember also that we said, “Do not look |
Tx:5.92 | and spirit with Him. Excluding yourself from the Atonement is the | ego's last-ditch defense of its own existence. It reflects both the |
Tx:5.92 | last-ditch defense of its own existence. It reflects both the | ego's need to separate and your willingness to side with its |
Tx:6.26 | In the | ego's use of projection, to which we are obviously referring, what |
Tx:6.31 | is the counterpart of the perfect equality of God's knowing. The | ego's perception has no counterpart in God, but the Holy Spirit |
Tx:6.37 | The difference between the | ego's use of projection and projection as the Holy Spirit uses it is |
Tx:6.48 | ally, because the body is not part of you. This makes the body the | ego's friend. It is an alliance frankly based on separation. If you |
Tx:6.50 | because you will be awake. Your dreams have contained many of the | ego's symbols, and they have confused you. Yet that was only because |
Tx:6.54 | perfect, does not insult them. This would be as impossible as the | ego's notion that it has insulted Him. |
Tx:6.56 | A harsh and strident form of communication arose as the | ego's voice. It could not shatter the peace of God, but it could |
Tx:6.74 | less acceptable to it, would obviously be that it is insane. The | ego's judgment, then, is predetermined by what it is, though no |
Tx:6.83 | being in fundamental disagreement about what you are. The | ego's beliefs on this crucial issue vary, and that is why it promotes |
Tx:7.22 | them to a unified curriculum. The fact that this was not the | ego's reason for learning is totally irrelevant. |
Tx:7.23 | the Holy Spirit has a unified goal for all effort. He adapts the | ego's potentials for excelling to potentials for equalizing. This |
Tx:7.23 | to potentials for equalizing. This makes them useless for the | ego's purpose but very useful for His. If different abilities are |
Tx:7.27 | it. Yet what is “treacherous” to the ego is faithful to peace. The | ego's “enemy” is therefore your friend. We said before that the |
Tx:7.27 | ego's “enemy” is therefore your friend. We said before that the | ego's friend is not part of you, since the ego perceives itself as at |
Tx:7.36 | The | ego's goal is as unified as the Holy Spirit's, and it is because of |
Tx:7.39 | potential is used for. That is a decision. The effects of the | ego's decision in this matter are so apparent that they need no |
Tx:7.41 | one He knows. He recognizes no other, because He does not accept the | ego's confusion of mind and body. Minds can communicate, but they |
Tx:7.78 | of Heaven from him. This is the ultimate basis for all of the | ego's projection. |
Tx:7.81 | Perceive any part of the | ego's thought system as wholly insane, wholly delusional, and wholly |
Tx:7.83 | project, because that is how it lives, and every mind is life. The | ego's use of projection must be fully understood before its |
Tx:7.88 | belief. When you are willing to accept sole responsibility for the | ego's existence yourself, you will have laid aside all anger and |
Tx:7.93 | than can the fullness of its Creator. Fullness is extension. The | ego's whole thought system blocks extension and thus blocks your only |
Tx:7.97 | more true than your failure to acknowledge the whole result of the | ego's premises. The Kingdom is the result of premises, just as this |
Tx:7.98 | You have carried the | ego's reasoning to its logical conclusion, which is total confusion |
Tx:7.98 | see the whole of it. You [therefore] are willing to look at the | ego's premises but not at their logical outcome. Is it not possible |
Tx:7.102 | wish. Your will is as powerful as His because it is His. The | ego's wishes do not mean anything, because the ego wishes for the |
Tx:7.102 | for the impossible, but you can will only with God. This is the | ego's weakness and your strength. |
Tx:8.3 | The | ego's voice is an hallucination. You cannot expect it to say, “I am |
Tx:8.9 | to anything. Simply on the grounds of your own experience with the | ego's teaching, should not this alone disqualify it as your future |
Tx:8.41 | The | ego's way is not mine, but it is also not yours. The Holy Spirit |
Tx:8.53 | your mind, you are equating yourself with a body. This is the | ego's interpretation of the body. You do not have to attack |
Tx:8.61 | Soul can reach beyond its distortions and return to the Soul. The | ego's temple thus becomes the temple of the Holy Spirit, where |
Tx:8.69 | Attitudes toward the body are attitudes toward attack. The | ego's definitions of everything are childish and always based on |
Tx:8.72 | It has been particularly difficult to overcome the | ego's belief in the body as an end, because this is synonymous with |
Tx:8.72 | in sickness. If you are sick, how can you object to the | ego's firm belief that you are not invulnerable? This is a |
Tx:8.72 | invulnerable? This is a particularly appealing argument from the | ego's point of view because it obscures the obvious attack which |
Tx:8.72 | against attack, you could not give this false witness to the | ego's stand. |
Tx:8.73 | would not consider sickness such a strong witness on behalf of the | ego's views. |
Tx:8.75 | Sickness is meaningful only if the two basic premises on which the | ego's interpretation of the body rests are true. Specifically, these |
Tx:8.77 | feel. You do not know how you feel, because you have accepted the | ego's confusion, and you think that a learning device can tell |
Tx:8.78 | you want can distort what you see and hear. No one can doubt the | ego's skill in building up false cases. Nor can anyone doubt your |
Tx:8.80 | Holy Spirit to heal the body, for this would merely be to accept the | ego's belief that the body is the proper aim for healing. Ask |
Tx:8.82 | waking is joining. Dreams are illusions of joining, taking on the | ego's distortions about what joining means if you are sleeping under |
Tx:8.90 | God of which you are afraid, but yours. Your will is not the | ego's, and that is why the ego is against you. What seems to be the |
Tx:9.12 | you are asking for one, though not of the right teacher. The | ego's plan, of course, makes no sense and will not work. By |
Tx:9.12 | in an impossible situation to which the ego always leads you. The | ego's plan is to have you see error clearly first and then |
Tx:9.16 | yours. It seems absurd to have to emphasize repeatedly that the | ego's qualifications as a guide are singularly unfortunate and that |
Tx:9.17 | not fear the Last Judgment, but welcome it and do not wait, for the | ego's time is borrowed from your eternity. This is the Second |
Tx:9.20 | The | ego's plan for forgiveness is far more widely used than God's. This |
Tx:9.22 | All unhealed healers follow the | ego's plan for forgiveness in one form or another. If they are |
Tx:9.23 | The newer forms of the | ego's plan are as unhelpful as the older ones, because form does not |
Tx:9.23 | does not matter at all. According to the newer forms of the | ego's plan, the therapist interprets the ego's symbols in the |
Tx:9.23 | to the newer forms of the ego's plan, the therapist interprets the | ego's symbols in the nightmare and then uses them to prove that the |
Tx:9.24 | It is noteworthy that this is a contradiction even in the | ego's terms, and one which it usually does note, even in its |
Tx:9.26 | an “unimportant mind” esteem itself without magic. Both forms of the | ego's approach, then, must arrive at an impasse, the characteristic |
Tx:9.42 | return. What can this mean except that you are agreeing with the | ego's evaluation of what you are? If you are willing to see yourself |
Tx:9.43 | not ask, “Who granted it?” The question is meaningless within the | ego's thought system, because it opens the whole thought system to |
Tx:9.44 | your littleness, therefore, is to deny all knowledge and keep the | ego's whole thought system intact. You cannot retain part of a |
Tx:9.44 | does stand. The Holy Spirit judges against the reality of the | ego's thought system merely because He knows its foundation is not |
Tx:9.58 | you hear, for God does not deceive. He would have you replace the | ego's belief in littleness with His own exalted answer to the |
Tx:9.78 | of losing this?] Look calmly at the logical conclusion of the | ego's thought system and judge whether its offering is really what |
Tx:9.95 | Allegiance to the denial of God is the | ego's religion. The god of sickness obviously demands the denial of |
Tx:10.3 | the light becomes. The closer you come to [the foundation of] the | ego's thought system, the darker and more obscure becomes the way. |
Tx:10.3 | light fearlessly with you and hold it up to the foundation of the | ego's thought system bravely. Be willing to judge it with perfect |
Tx:10.4 | are part of God and part of me. When you have at last looked at the | ego's foundation without shrinking, you will also have looked upon |
Tx:10.39 | they cannot be dangerous. We are ready to look more closely at the | ego's thought system because together we have the lamp that will |
Tx:10.43 | Fear becomes more obviously inappropriate if one recognizes the | ego's goal, which is so clearly senseless that any effort exerted |
Tx:10.43 | exerted on its behalf is necessarily expended on nothing. The | ego's goal is quite explicitly ego autonomy. From the beginning, |
Tx:10.44 | itself. The real conflict you experience, then, is between the | ego's idle wishes and the Will of God, which you share. Can this be |
Tx:10.45 | became as dependent on you as you are on Him. Do not ascribe the | ego's arrogance to Him, Who wills not to be independent of you. He |
Tx:10.48 | not really afraid. Minimizing fear but not its undoing is the | ego's constant effort and is indeed the skill at which it is very |
Tx:10.50 | If the | ego's goal of autonomy could be accomplished, God's purpose could be |
Tx:10.50 | from the impossible and the false from the true. According to the | ego's teaching, its goal can be accomplished, and God's purpose can |
Tx:10.51 | be found apart from your joint will. Recognize only that the | ego's goal, which you have pursued quite diligently, has [only] |
Tx:10.54 | The | ego's interpretation of the laws of perception are, and would have |
Tx:10.56 | Do not underestimate the appeal of the | ego's demonstrations to those who would listen. Selective perception |
Tx:11.5 | unwilling to give help and to receive it. The analysis of the | ego's “real” motivation is the modern equivalent of the inquisition, |
Tx:11.37 | to it. Yet it is also your mind that has the power to deny the | ego's existence, and you will surely do so when you realize exactly |
Tx:11.38 | for it could not respond at all. You would have to abandon the | ego's guidance, for it would be quite apparent that it had not taught |
Tx:11.49 | We have said that the | ego's rule is, “Seek and do not find.” Translated into curricular |
Tx:11.74 | and have condemned yourself to death. The death penalty is the | ego's ultimate goal, for it fully believes that you are a criminal, |
Tx:11.74 | knows you are deserving of life. The death penalty never leaves the | ego's mind, for that is what it always reserves for you in the end. |
Tx:11.96 | is a way of holding past and future in your minds to ensure the | ego's continuity. For if what has been will be punished, the ego's |
Tx:11.96 | the ego's continuity. For if what has been will be punished, the | ego's continuity is guaranteed. Yet the guarantee of your continuity |
Tx:11.96 | guaranteed. Yet the guarantee of your continuity is God's, not the | ego's. And immortality is the opposite of time, for time passes away, |
Tx:11.98 | guilt by making it real and then atoning for it. This is the | ego's plan, which it offers instead of dispelling it. The ego |
Tx:11.99 | increase the guilt, for guilt is the result of attack. In the | ego's teaching, then, there is no escape from guilt. For attack |
Tx:12.2 | Yet consider how strange a solution the | ego's arrangement is. You project guilt to get rid of it, but you are |
Tx:12.3 | suspect this murderous but insane idea lies hidden there, for the | ego's destructive urge is so intense that nothing short of the |
Tx:12.4 | Much of the | ego's strange behavior is directly attributable to its definition of |
Tx:12.4 | go. They have approached the darkest and deepest cornerstone in the | ego's foundation, and while the ego can withstand your raising all |
Tx:12.11 | You could look even upon the | ego's darkest cornerstone without fear if you did not believe that, |
Tx:12.11 | of crucifixion. Your real terror is of redemption. Under the | ego's dark foundation is the memory of God, and it is of this that |
Tx:12.12 | is salvation to prevent you from this. For still deeper than the | ego's foundation, and much stronger than it will ever be, is your |
Tx:12.14 | cover your love, and the deeper you go into the blackness of the | ego's foundation, the closer you come to the love that is hidden |
Tx:12.27 | point, obscuring their present reality. In effect, if you follow the | ego's dictates, you will react to your brothers as though they were |
Tx:12.29 | the Holy Spirit's perception of time is the exact opposite of the | ego's. The reason is equally clear, for they perceive the goal of |
Tx:12.68 | for possession is its law. Possession for its own sake is the | ego's fundamental creed, a basic cornerstone in the churches that it |
Tx:13.11 | so, they will condemn, linking the future to the past as is the | ego's law. Fidelity unto this law lets no light in, for it demands |
Tx:13.11 | for it demands fidelity to darkness and forbids awakening. The | ego's laws are strict, and breaches are severely punished. Therefore |
Tx:13.12 | Release from guilt is the | ego's whole undoing. Make no one fearful, for his guilt is yours, |
Tx:13.12 | Make no one fearful, for his guilt is yours, and by obeying the | ego's harsh commandments, you bring its condemnation of yourself, and |
Tx:13.35 | Forgetfulness and sleep and even death become the | ego's best advice for how to deal with the perceived and harsh |
Tx:13.47 | ego points to darkness and to death. We have followed much of the | ego's logic and have seen its logical conclusions. And having seen |
Tx:14.14 | to whomever you see as guiltless. Crucifixion is always the | ego's aim. It sees as guilty, and by its condemnation, it would |
Tx:14.54 | This is characteristic of the | ego's judgments. Separately, they seem to hold, but put them together |
Tx:14.54 | makes a cohesive system impossible. Separation therefore remains the | ego's chosen condition. For no one alone can judge the ego truly. Yet |
Tx:15.4 | it craves for you, leaves it unsatisfied. No one who follows the | ego's teaching is without the fear of death. Yet if death were |
Tx:15.4 | pain, would it be feared? We have seen this strange paradox in the | ego's thought system before, but never so clearly as here. For the |
Tx:15.5 | it will pursue you still because guilt is eternal. Such is the | ego's version of immortality. And it is this the ego's version of |
Tx:15.5 | Such is the ego's version of immortality. And it is this the | ego's version of time supports. |
Tx:15.7 | How bleak and despairing is the | ego's use of time! And how terrifying! For underneath its fanatical |
Tx:15.8 | make the present useless. There is no escape from fear in the | ego's use of time. For time, according to its teaching, is nothing |
Tx:15.14 | to exchange hell for Heaven. Long enough to transcend all of the | ego's making and ascend unto your Father. |
Tx:15.39 | is simple. Complexity is of the ego and is nothing more than the | ego's attempt to obscure the obvious. |
Tx:15.51 | The | ego's use of relationships is so fragmented that it frequently goes |
Tx:15.68 | that you do not recognize what it would do to you. For it is the | ego's fundamental doctrine that what you do to others, you have |
Tx:15.73 | never without demand of sacrifice. The fury of those joined at the | ego's altar far exceeds your awareness of it. For what the ego |
Tx:15.76 | and its ability to overcome loneliness is but the working of the | ego's plan to establish its own autonomy. As long as you believe |
Tx:15.99 | and away from you and not be host to Him. To Him you ascribed the | ego's treachery, inviting it to take His place to protect you from |
Tx:16.5 | you do not understand. Be tempted not in this, and yield not to the | ego's triumphant use of empathy for its glory. |
Tx:16.22 | is certain that you judge yourself according to your teaching. The | ego's teaching produces immediate results because its decisions are |
Tx:16.22 | judge yourself accordingly. Cause and effect are very clear in the | ego's thought system because all your learning has been directed |
Tx:16.44 | attack and unprotected from it. The special love relationship is the | ego's chief weapon for keeping you from Heaven. It does not appear |
Tx:16.44 | will realize what it must be. The special love relationship is the | ego's most boasted gift, and one which has the most appeal to those |
Tx:16.46 | born of the hidden wish for special love from God, that the | ego's hatred triumphs. For the special relationship is the |
Tx:16.48 | union rests on exclusion. What better example could there be of the | ego's maxim, “Seek but do not find?” |
Tx:16.50 | that he has asked for hell, and so he will not interfere with the | ego's illusion of Heaven, which it offered him to interfere with |
Tx:16.51 | purpose of the special relationship, in strict accordance with the | ego's goals, is to destroy reality and substitute illusion. For the |
Tx:16.72 | Do not underestimate the intensity of the | ego's drive for vengeance on the past. It is completely savage and |
Tx:16.73 | to you is that the present is useless to you while you pursue the | ego's goal as its ally. The past is gone; seek not to preserve it in |
Tx:16.75 | Against the | ego's insane notion of salvation, the Holy Spirit gently lays the |
Tx:16.75 | to point to truth. The holy instant is the opposite of the | ego's fixed belief in salvation through vengeance for the past. In |
Tx:16.79 | and illusion—between the real Atonement which would heal and the | ego's “atonement” which would destroy. The power of God and all His |
Tx:17.15 | why you should enter into unholy alliances which support the | ego's goals and make your relationships the witness to its power. It |
Tx:17.18 | indeed unkind to the unholy relationship. For time is cruel in the | ego's hands, as it is kind when used for gentleness. The attraction |
Tx:17.29 | the call of truth. In a sense the special relationship was the | ego's answer to the creation of the Holy Spirit, Who was God's answer |
Tx:17.32 | we have looked at it far closer than at many other aspects of the | ego's thought system which you have been more willing to let go. |
Tx:17.58 | beginning, for it is this which will determine the outcome. In the | ego's procedure, this is reversed. The situation becomes the |
Tx:17.61 | because you are at peace. Here again, you see the opposite of the | ego's way of looking, for the ego believes the situation brings the |
Tx:18.15 | to suit the ego better. They provide striking examples both of the | ego's inability to tolerate reality and your willingness to change |
Tx:18.89 | it heavy and opaque, impenetrable, and a real foundation for the | ego's thought system. Its thinness and transparency are not apparent |
Tx:19.18 | and defeat. Sin is the “grand illusion” underlying all the | ego's grandiosity. For by it, God Himself is changed and rendered |
Tx:19.20 | A major tenet in the | ego's insane religion is that sin is not error but truth, and it is |
Tx:19.21 | through reverence and awe. It is the most “holy” concept in the | ego's system—lovely and powerful, wholly true, and necessarily |
Tx:19.23 | There is no stone in all the | ego's embattled citadel more heavily defended than the idea that sin |
Tx:19.23 | then, the death of God, Whom sin has killed! And this would be the | ego's wish, which in its madness it thinks it has accomplished. |
Tx:19.72 | that pain is pleasure. It is this idea that underlies all of the | ego's heavy investment in the body. And it is this insane |
Tx:19.74 | The | ego's messages are always sent away from you in the belief that for |
Tx:19.75 | chant the body's praise continually, in solemn celebration of the | ego's rule. Not one but must believe that yielding to the attraction |
Tx:19.76 | It is not given to the | ego's disciples to realize that they have dedicated themselves to |
Tx:19.78 | dedication it is not to live—the black-draped “sinners,” the | ego's mournful chorus, plodding so heavily away from life, dragging |
Tx:19.79 | master. When you accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose in place of the | ego's, you renounced death, exchanging it for life. We know that an |
Tx:19.83 | be the final and complete disruption of communication which is the | ego's goal. |
Tx:19.84 | flow across seems to be very great. For in it lies hidden all the | ego's secrets, all its strange devices for deception, all its sick |
Tx:19.84 | weird imaginings. Here is the final end of union, the triumph of the | ego's making over creation, the victory of lifelessness on Life |
Tx:19.85 | orders, proof in his decay that God Himself is powerless before the | ego's might, unable to protect the life that He created against the |
Tx:19.85 | ego's might, unable to protect the life that He created against the | ego's savage wish to kill. My brothers, children of our Father, this |
Tx:20.17 | Adjustments of any kind are of the ego. For it is the | ego's fixed belief that all relationships depend upon adjustments |
Tx:20.48 | It does not seek for power, but for relationships. The body is the | ego's chosen weapon for seeking power through relationships. And |
Tx:20.55 | The body is the | ego's idol; the belief in sin made flesh and then projected outward. |
Tx:20.76 | substitutes for all the terrifying sights and screaming sounds the | ego's purpose brought to your horrified awareness. They step away |
Tx:21.42 | blind. This you believe, and so you do not look. Yet this is not the | ego's hidden fear, nor yours who serve it. Loudly indeed the ego |
Tx:21.43 | one the ego never asks. And you who ask it now are threatening the | ego's whole defensive system too seriously for it to bother to |
Tx:21.46 | teaches. This is the reasoning of the sane. You have perceived the | ego's madness and not been made afraid because you did not choose to |
Tx:21.47 | song it longed to hear since first the ego came into your minds. The | ego's weakness is its strength. The song of freedom, which sings the |
Tx:21.47 | now it sees that Heaven has come to earth at last, from which the | ego's rule has kept it out so long. Heaven has come because it found |
Tx:21.48 | Look gently on each other and remember the | ego's weakness is revealed in both your sight. What it would keep |
Tx:21.49 | The still small Voice for God is not drowned out by all the | ego's raucous screams and senseless ravings to those who want to |

T2:11.16 | The alternative is removing all faith from your belief in the | ego-self. The alternative is replacing belief in an ego-self with |
T2:11.16 | belief in the ego-self. The alternative is replacing belief in an | ego-self with belief in a Christ-Self. Total replacement. As long as |
T2:13.3 | you are here, you have a persona. While this persona is no longer an | ego-self but a Christ-Self, it is still a persona. This is the “you” |
T3:1.1 | the personal self that you presented to others represented an | ego-self who you believed yourself to be. Now the ego has been |
T3:1.6 | by your body, while adhering to the ego's thought system, became an | ego-self or an unreal self. An unreal self cannot help but exist in |
T3:1.12 | is the Christ. Your remembrance of the Christ-Self has abolished the | ego-self and allows us to begin the lessons of the personal self. |
T3:1.13 | lessons of this Course, to distinguish the personal self from the | ego-self. There is a danger even now in focusing upon the self of the |
T3:1.13 | the self of the body, as this self has been so long bound to the | ego-self. Even with the ego once and finally vanquished, the patterns |

T3:4.8 | I repeat, and will do so again and again, that the | ego-self is gone from you. Whether you fully realize this or not |
T3:4.8 | love or fear. If you proceed with fear you will assemble a new | ego-self, an ego-self that perhaps will seem superior to the old, but |
T3:4.8 | fear. If you proceed with fear you will assemble a new ego-self, an | ego-self that perhaps will seem superior to the old, but which will |
T3:4.8 | seem superior to the old, but which will nonetheless still be an | ego-self. If you proceed with love, you will come to know your |
T3:5.2 | have emptied a space for love to fill. You have been emptied of the | ego-self as creative moments of inspiration filled you and emptied of |
T3:5.2 | as creative moments of inspiration filled you and emptied of the | ego-self in moments of connection with God. |
T3:5.4 | as was the rush to rebuild a part of the survival mechanism of the | ego-self. |
T3:5.7 | and new life. It was a gift meant to empty the world of the | ego-self and to allow the personal self to live on as the one true |
T3:8.5 | believe in the Christ-Self who is the only savior, rather than the | ego-self, which is all you have needed saving from. |
T3:10.14 | to your memory. You will soon forget the thought system of the | ego-self even though, when encountering those who still use that |
T3:12.9 | believed itself to be separate and alone. In its fear, it made an | ego-self which, because it sprang from fear, was not consistent with |
T3:17.5 | could not learn the untrue, a new self, which we have called the | ego-self, was made. Since the ego-self cannot learn the true, your |
T3:17.5 | a new self, which we have called the ego-self, was made. Since the | ego-self cannot learn the true, your true Self had to be appealed to |
T3:17.8 | known the existence of the illusion and the thought system of the | ego-self and been able to communicate within that illusion. Without |
T3:17.8 | within that illusion. Without this means of communication with the | ego-self the ability to learn the truth could not have returned to |
T3:21.11 | Even while this experience is experience of an | ego-self, it is still an experience as near to certainty as you have |
T4:1.26 | the truth and will soon begin looking earnestly for it. Even the | ego-self will be perceived clearly by these, and they will not want |
D:Day3.28 | striving for more, a trick to guarantee the survival of the | ego-self, a trick that provided the small rewards of time-bound |
D:Day4.25 | no more good than blaming others, for without the dismantling of the | ego-self, without the dismantling of the self as separate and alone, |

Tx:10.29 | to give you the peace that is yours. Give His peace that you may | enter the temple and find it waiting for you. But be holy in the |
Tx:10.29 | you will not know that you are there. For what is unlike God cannot | enter His Mind because it was not His Thought and therefore does not |
Tx:10.29 | temple, for He Himself dwells there and abides in peace. You cannot | enter God's Presence with the dark companions beside you, but you |
Tx:10.29 | Presence with the dark companions beside you, but you also cannot | enter alone. |
Tx:10.30 | All your brothers must | enter with you, for until you have accepted them, you cannot |
Tx:10.30 | enter with you, for until you have accepted them, you cannot | enter. For you cannot understand Wholeness unless you are whole, |
Tx:10.35 | and as strong an ego defense as blaming others. You cannot | enter God's Presence if you attack His Son. When His Son lifts his |
Tx:10.36 | otherwise you will believe that the door is barred and you cannot | enter. The door is not barred, and it is impossible for you to be |
Tx:10.36 | door is not barred, and it is impossible for you to be unable to | enter the place where God would have you be. But love yourself with |
Tx:10.36 | of Christ, for so does your Father love you. You can refuse to | enter, but you cannot bar the door which Christ holds open. Come |
Tx:11.43 | because they see no need to do so. Before the idea of attack can | enter your mind, you must have perceived yourself as weak. Because |
Tx:12.15 | made. You are more afraid of God than of the ego, and love cannot | enter where it is not welcome. But hatred can, for it enters of its |
Tx:12.19 | completely. Healing must be as complete as fear, for love cannot | enter where there is one spot of fear to mar its welcome. |
Tx:12.63 | in the quiet present and waits for you to leave the past behind and | enter into the world He holds out to you in love. |
Tx:13.30 | You cannot | enter into real relationships with any of God's Sons unless you |
Tx:13.34 | praise, we stand before the gates of Heaven where we will surely | enter in our blamelessness. God loves you. Could I, then, lack faith |
Tx:13.70 | to darkness because he did not choose to free his brother and | enter light with him. By giving power to nothing, he threw away the |
Tx:14.28 | will go because the other is seen in the same place. Light cannot | enter darkness when a mind believes in darkness and will not let it |
Tx:14.30 | you have locked away from Him. Open every door to Him and bid Him | enter the darkness and lighten it away. At your request He enters |
Tx:14.46 | For the reflection of truth draws everyone to truth, and as they | enter into it, they leave all reflections behind. |
Tx:15.46 | to use separation to save you. How, then, could guilt not | enter? For separation is the source of guilt, and to appeal to it |
Tx:15.66 | It is impossible for the ego to | enter into any relationship without anger, for the ego believes that |
Tx:15.109 | God offers thanks to the holy host who would receive Him and let Him | enter and abide where He would be. And by your welcome does He |
Tx:15.109 | with Him, being host to Him Who created them. And by allowing Him to | enter, the remembrance of the Father enters with Him, and with Him |
Tx:16.1 | that healing pain is not accomplished by delusional attempts to | enter into it and lighten it by sharing the delusion. |
Tx:16.9 | Leave Him His function, for He will fulfill it if you but ask Him to | enter your relationships and bless them for you. |
Tx:16.32 | is acceptable only as long as he serves this purpose. Hatred can | enter and indeed is welcome in some aspects of the relationship, |
Tx:16.43 | a great amount of pain. Anxiety, despair, guilt, and attack all | enter into it, broken into by periods in which they seem to be |
Tx:16.62 | If one such union were made in perfect faith, the universe would | enter into it. Yet the special relationship which the ego seeks does |
Tx:16.66 | what you are. You have allowed the Thought of your reality to | enter your minds, and because you invited it, it will abide with |
Tx:16.66 | love for it will not allow you to betray yourself, and you could not | enter into a relationship where it could not go with you, for you |
Tx:16.69 | thoughts wander to a special relationship which still attracts you, | enter with Him into a holy instant and there let Him release you. He |
Tx:16.70 | past disappointments, perceived injustices, and deprivations all | enter into the special relationship, which becomes a way in which you |
Tx:16.81 | with You in which there are no illusions and where none can ever | enter. Our holiness is Yours. What can there be in us that needs |
Tx:17.15 | could hear them. They offer you the “reasons” why you should | enter into unholy alliances which support the ego's goals and make |
Tx:17.16 | always speak for vengeance, and all relationships into which they | enter are totally insane. Without exception, these relationships have |
Tx:17.17 | move toward further fragmentation and unreality. The shadow figures | enter more and more, and the one in whom they seem to be decreases |
Tx:17.18 | and to be questioned almost at once. Once it is formed, doubt must | enter in because its purpose is impossible. The only such |
Tx:17.19 | thus becomes one in which the reality of the other does not | enter at all to “spoil” the dream. And the less the other really |
Tx:17.26 | My holy brothers, I would | enter into all your relationships and step between you and your |
Tx:17.26 | in which such dreams are cherished have excluded me. Let me | enter in the Name of God and bring you peace that you may offer peace |
Tx:17.45 | wastes no time in introducing the practical results of asking Him to | enter. At once His goal replaces yours. This is accomplished very |
Tx:17.63 | the illusion of peace is not the condition in which the truth can | enter. |
Tx:17.68 | else, and you are faithless. Use not your faithlessness. Let it | enter and look upon it calmly, but do not use it. Faithlessness is |
Tx:17.72 | Enter each situation with the faith that you give to each other, or | |
Tx:17.72 | goal He placed there was extended to every situation in which you | enter or will ever enter. And every situation was thus made free of |
Tx:17.72 | was extended to every situation in which you enter or will ever | enter. And every situation was thus made free of the past, which |
Tx:17.75 | Not even faith is asked of you, for truth asks nothing. Let it | enter, and it will call forth and secure for you the faith you need |
Tx:18.9 | a perfect love. Here is holy ground in which no substitution can | enter and where only the truth about each other can abide. Here you |
Tx:18.24 | deeper. Your goal was darkness in which no ray of light could | enter. And you sought a blackness so complete that you could hide |
Tx:18.33 | not enough. But trust implicitly your willingness, whatever else may | enter. Concentrate only on this and be not disturbed that shadows |
Tx:18.34 | His dwelling-place unworthy of Him. And if you believe He cannot | enter where He wills to be, you must be interfering with His Will. |
Tx:18.55 | God that you have made. And neither God nor His most holy Son can | enter an abode which harbors hate and where you have sown the seeds |
Tx:18.72 | the whole, proclaiming that within it is your kingdom, where God can | enter not. |
Tx:18.78 | little! Should it not, then, be there that you would call on love to | enter? Look at the desert, dry and unproductive, scorched and |
Tx:18.79 | you welcome will bring love with him from Heaven for you. They | enter one by one into this holy place, but they will not depart as |
Tx:18.80 | shining upon it. The holy instant is your invitation to love, to | enter into your bleak and joyless kingdom, and to transform it into a |
Tx:19.15 | make of it. For faith brings peace, and so it calls on truth to | enter and make lovely what has already been prepared for loveliness. |
Tx:19.38 | your relationship. Would you not now return His graciousness and | enter into a relationship with Him? For it is He Who offered your |
Tx:19.71 | the body, which is the invitation to pain. For it invites fear to | enter and become your purpose. The attraction of guilt must enter |
Tx:19.71 | to enter and become your purpose. The attraction of guilt must | enter with it, and whatever fear directs the body to do is therefore |
Tx:19.87 | the wholly innocent? What can attack the guiltless? What fear can | enter and disturb the peace of sinlessness? What has been given you, |
Tx:20.25 | untouched and perfect, and with him beside you, you shall this day | enter with him to Paradise and know the peace of God. |
Tx:20.29 | has no place in Heaven, where its results are alien and can no more | enter than can their source. And therein lies your need to see your |
Tx:20.33 | of another world goes with them. Each holy relationship must | enter here to learn its special function in the Holy Spirit's plan, |
Tx:20.33 | And as this purpose is fulfilled, a new world rises in which sin can | enter not, and where the Son of God can enter without fear, and where |
Tx:20.33 | world rises in which sin can enter not, and where the Son of God can | enter without fear, and where he rests a while to forget imprisonment |
Tx:20.33 | a while to forget imprisonment and to remember freedom. How can he | enter, to rest and to remember, without you? Except you be there, |
Tx:20.34 | alone. For the whole new world rests in the hands of every two who | enter here to rest. And as they rest, the face of Christ shines on |
Tx:20.47 | understand what they are offered, and any relationship in which they | enter has lost its meaning. They live in secrecy, hating the sunlight |
Tx:20.49 | them here in its idolatry. Here it is “safe,” for here love cannot | enter. The Holy Spirit does not build His temples where love can |
Tx:20.51 | bodies. You have escaped the body. Where you are the body cannot | enter, for the Holy Spirit has set His temple there. |
Tx:21.60 | it be that you have private thoughts? And how could thoughts that | enter into what but seems like yours alone have no effect at all on |
Tx:22.14 | thankfully, grateful that it is one with you who joined to let it | enter. |
Tx:22.23 | can take and weave into illusions. Nor is there one illusion you can | enter Heaven with. A savior cannot be a judge, nor mercy |
Tx:22.47 | this quiet state alone is strength and power. Here can no weakness | enter, for here is no attack and therefore no illusions. Love rests |
Tx:23.43 | nothing. It is complete for everyone. Let the idea of compromise but | enter, and the awareness of salvation's purpose is lost because it is |
Tx:24.1 | not necessary to tell Him what to do. He will not fail. Where He can | enter, there He is already. And can it be He cannot enter where He |
Tx:24.1 | Where He can enter, there He is already. And can it be He cannot | enter where He wills to be? Peace will be yours because it is His |
Tx:24.24 | keeps His Son from Him. For it demands a special place God cannot | enter and a hiding-place where none is welcome but your tiny self. |
Tx:24.31 | you chose to be your home. He chose not this for you. Ask not He | enter this. The way is barred to love and to salvation. Yet if you |
Tx:24.37 | an open door inviting everything that would disturb your peace to | enter and destroy. |
Tx:25.24 | belief He could not let Himself be separate entirely. He could not | enter His Son's insanity with him, but He could be sure His sanity |
Tx:25.57 | suitable to him; one which will not attack the world he sees, but | enter into it in quietness and show him he is mad. This One but |
Tx:26.18 | is simple—it is one, without an opposite. And how could strife | enter in its simple presence and bring complexity where oneness is? |
Tx:27.32 | and fully occupied, becomes a silent invitation to the truth to | enter and to make itself at home. No preparation can be made that |
Tx:28.12 | that His Son accepts gives welcome to eternity and Him and lets Them | enter where They would abide. For in that instant does the Son of God |
Tx:28.36 | in which abundance falters and grows thin. Here can the lean years | enter not, for time waits not upon this feast, which has no end. For |
Tx:29.13 | Guest has come. You asked Him, and He came. You did not hear Him | enter, for you did not wholly welcome Him. And yet His gifts came |
Tx:29.55 | be held up to block God's way? Whose voice could make demand He | enter not? The “more-than-everything” is not a thing to make you |
Tx:29.67 | that is the purpose which it has. Only forgiving dreams can | enter here, for time is almost over. And the forms which enter in the |
Tx:29.67 | dreams can enter here, for time is almost over. And the forms which | enter in the dream are now perceived as brothers, not in judgment but |
Tx:30.94 | really is. Let no temptation to prefer a dream allow uncertainty to | enter here. Be not made guilty and afraid when you are tempted by a |
Tx:31.59 | which would stand the light, then is the truth left free to | enter in its sanctuary, clean and free of guilt. There is no |
W1:41.5 | of turning inward, past all the idle thoughts of the world. Try to | enter very deeply into your own mind, keeping it clear of any |
W1:50.4 | a blanket of protection and surety. Let no idle and foolish thoughts | enter to disturb the holy mind of the Son of God. Such is the Kingdom |
W1:56.4 | its continuance. While I see the world as I see it now, truth cannot | enter my awareness. I would let the door behind this world be opened |
W1:72.7 | prepared arena, where angry animals seek for prey and mercy cannot | enter, the ego comes to save you. God made you a body. Very well. Let |
W1:97.1 | from conflict to the quiet fields of peace. No chill of fear can | enter, for your mind has been absolved from madness, letting go |
W1:99.9 | Then let the thought with which He has replaced all your mistakes | enter the darkened places of your mind which thought the thoughts |
W1:103.1 | deny that this is so, believing there are gaps in love where sin can | enter, bringing pain instead of joy. |
W1:107.9 | think. We do not doubt we walk with truth today and count on it to | enter into all the exercises that we do this day. |
W1:109.10 | well—your distant brothers and your closest friends—bid them all | enter here and rest with you. You rest within the peace of God today, |
W1:110.13 | This is the key that opens up the gate of Heaven, and which lets you | enter in the peace of God and His eternity. |
W1:122.5 | warmth and welcome calling from beyond the doorway, bidding you to | enter in and make yourself at home where you belong. |
W1:131.14 | let them go, and sink below them to the holy place where they can | enter not. There is a door beneath them in your mind which you could |
W1:134.22 | No one is crucified alone, and yet no one can | enter Heaven by himself. |
W1:136.15 | defense, for no illusions can remain where it has been allowed to | enter. And it comes to any mind that would lay down its arms and |
W1:137.9 | exchange of all the world of sorrow for a world where sadness cannot | enter, are the means by which the Holy Spirit urges you to follow |
W1:138.2 | It is not really thus. Yet what is true in God's creation cannot | enter here unless it is reflected in some form the world can |
W1:152.2 | Can pain be part of peace, or grief of joy? Can fear and sickness | enter in a mind where love and perfect holiness abide? Truth must be |
W1:157.9 | Into Christ's Presence will we | enter now, serenely unaware of everything except His shining face and |
W1:167.9 | an alien power which it does not have, a foreign state it cannot | enter, or a false condition not within its Source, it merely seems to |
W1:174.2 | [157] Into His Presence would I | enter now. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
W1:181.5 | beliefs, and what we will believe will not intrude upon us now. We | enter in the time of practicing with one intent—to look upon the |
W1:190.9 | at last. Lay down all thoughts of danger and of fear. Let no attack | enter with you. Lay down the cruel sword of judgment that you hold |
W1:193.4 | the hate to love, so that the fear is gone. And now guilt cannot | enter, for its source has been excluded as the purpose of the lesson |
W1:199.2 | and power to do whatever it is asked. Attack thoughts cannot | enter such a mind because it has been given to the Source of Love. |
W1:199.2 | because it has been given to the Source of Love. And fear can never | enter in a mind that has attached itself to Love. It rests in God, |
W2:I.1 | to the times in which we leave the world of pain and go to | enter peace. Now we begin to reach the goal this course has set and |
W2:228.2 | realize the Source from Which I came. I have not left that Source to | enter in a body and to die. My holiness remains a part of me, as I am |
W2:WIW.2 | absence? Thus the world was meant to be a place where God could | enter not and where His Son could be apart from Him. Here was |
W2:266.2 | This day we | enter into paradise, calling upon God's name and on our own, |
W2:274.1 | Through this I am redeemed. Through this as well the truth will | enter where illusions were, light will replace all darkness, and Your |
W2:307.1 | have what only You can give, I must accept Your will for me and | enter into peace where conflict is impossible. Your Son is one with |
W2:307.2 | And with this prayer, we | enter silently into a state where conflict cannot come because we |
W2:316.1 | and only more are added. Let me come to where my treasures are and | enter in where I am truly welcome and at home among the gifts that |
W2:332.1 | from fantasies, awaking to the Real. Forgiveness bids this presence | enter in and take its rightful place within the mind. Without |
W2:342.1 | of dreams. I stand before the gate of Heaven, wondering if I should | enter in and be at home. Let me not wait again today. Let me forgive |
W2:WAI.5 | And as he sees the gate of Heaven stand open before him, he will | enter in and disappear into the Heart of God. |
M:3.4 | is a more sustained relationship in which for a time two people | enter into a fairly intense teaching-learning situation and then |
M:8.4 | and categorizing activities of the mind that errors in perception | enter. And it is here correction must be made. The mind classifies |
M:17.3 | for teacher and pupil who have shared in one intent. Attack can | enter only if perception of separate goals has entered. And this must |

D:12.4 | and became capable of hearing the same language, you truly began to | enter the place of unity, to take the step outside of the dot of the |
D:12.8 | We have spoken already of “entering into” dialogue. When you | enter into dialogue with another person you “hear” what it is they |
D:12.8 | become “your” thoughts, but they do “enter” you. Their words must | enter you in order for them to provide a source for your response— |

Tx:3.22 | Those who represent the lamb as blood-stained, an all-too-widespread | error, do not understand the meaning of the symbol. Correctly |

Tx:3.75 | or His creations as capable of destroying their own purpose is in | error. |
Tx:4.4 | they are given up by an act of will. Do not make the pathetic human | error of “clinging to the old rugged cross.” The only message of the |
Tx:4.39 | Confusing realms of discourse is a thinking | error which philosophers have recognized for centuries. Psychologists |
Tx:5.49 | in terms of feelings, which led to a decision not to repeat the | error, which is only part of healing. Your concept lacked the idea |
Tx:5.94 | If you allow yourself to feel guilty, you will reinforce the | error rather than allow it to be undone for you. |
Tx:5.95 | part is merely to return your thinking to the point at which the | error was made and give it over to the Atonement in peace. Say to |
Tx:6.45 | regard itself as part of you. Herein lies its primary perceptual | error, the foundation of its whole thought system. |
Tx:7.13 | “of one person” and not of others. “Interpersonal” has a similar | error in that it refers to something that exists among different or |
Tx:8.84 | fear with love. The Holy Spirit cannot distinguish among degrees of | error, for if He taught that one form of sickness is more serious |
Tx:8.84 | sickness is more serious than another, He would be teaching that one | error can be more real than another. His function is to distinguish |
Tx:9.2 | foolishly because he needs correction at another level, since his | error is at another level. He is still right, because he is a Son |
Tx:9.9 | is for you alone. To forgive is to overlook. Look, then, beyond | error, and do not let your perception rest upon it, for you will |
Tx:9.10 | errors, or you would not make them. It would merely be further | error to think either that you do not make them or that you can |
Tx:9.12 | which the ego always leads you. The ego's plan is to have you see | error clearly first and then overlook it. Yet how can you |
Tx:9.14 | Forgiveness through the Holy Spirit lies simply in looking beyond | error from the beginning and thus keeping it unreal for you. Do not |
Tx:9.14 | has no effect does not exist, and to the Holy Spirit, the effects of | error are totally non-existent. By steadily and consistently |
Tx:10.39 | to look beyond it since you have made it real. We will undo this | error quietly together and then look beyond it to truth. |
Tx:10.54 | inconsistency must be true if truth has meaning. Holding | error clearly in mind and protecting what it has made real, the ego |
Tx:10.54 | real, the ego proceeds to the next step in its thought system—that | error is real, and truth is error. |
Tx:11.1 | You have been told not to make | error real, and the way to do this is very simple. If you want to |
Tx:11.1 | and the way to do this is very simple. If you want to believe in | error, you would have to make it real because it is not true. But |
Tx:11.1 | respond as if he had actually done so, because you have made his | error real to you. To interpret error is to give it power, and |
Tx:11.1 | done so, because you have made his error real to you. To interpret | error is to give it power, and having done this, you will overlook |
Tx:11.13 | Thus does the Holy Spirit replace fear with love and translate | error into truth. And thus will you learn of Him how to replace |
Tx:11.25 | You, then, are making the same mistake that he is and are making his | error real to both of you. Insistence means investment, and what |
Tx:11.84 | translated into knowledge, for only perception is capable of | error, and perception has never been. Being corrected, it gives place |
Tx:12.45 | rise to meet your sight, for all reality leaves no room for any | error. This means that you perceive a brother only as you see him |
Tx:13.80 | are reflections of what God knows about you, and in this light, | error of any kind becomes impossible. Why would you struggle so |
Tx:14.39 | Bringing the ego to God is but to bring | error to truth, where it stands corrected because it is the |
Tx:14.45 | The response of holiness to any form of | error is always the same. There is no contradiction in what holiness |
Tx:17.66 | solve anything. And it is their intrusion on the relationship, an | error in your thoughts about the situation, which then becomes the |
Tx:17.66 | the justification for your lack of faith. You will make this | error, but be not at all concerned with that. The error does not |
Tx:17.66 | will make this error, but be not at all concerned with that. The | error does not matter. Faithlessness brought to faith will never |
Tx:18.4 | to perceive it once was one and still is what it was. That one | error, which brought truth to illusion, infinity to time, and life to |
Tx:18.5 | from what you see. You do not realize the magnitude of that one | error. It was so vast and so completely incredible that from it a |
Tx:18.5 | you have seen begins to show you the enormity of the original | error, which seemed to cast you out of Heaven, to shatter knowledge |
Tx:18.6 | That was the first projection of | error outward. The world arose to hide it and became the screen on |
Tx:18.6 | of it. When you seem to see some twisted form of the original | error rise to frighten you, say only, “God is not fear, but love,” |
Tx:18.7 | You but believe it is the other way; that truth is outside and | error and guilt within. Your little senseless substitutions, touched |
Tx:18.9 | joined in God, as much together as you are with Him. The original | error has not entered here, nor ever will. Here is the radiant truth |
Tx:18.12 | hear no substitutes. Their call is but an echo of the original | error which shattered Heaven. And what became of peace in those who |
Tx:18.84 | to the light and guilt to holiness. And you have also been told that | error must be corrected at its source. Therefore, it is the tiny part |
Tx:19.14 | that you will realize that there is nothing faith cannot forgive. No | error interferes with its calm sight, which brings the miracle of |
Tx:19.17 | It is essential that | error be not confused with “sin,” and it is this distinction which |
Tx:19.17 | and it is this distinction which makes salvation possible. For | error can be corrected, and the wrong made right. But sin, were it |
Tx:19.17 | not part of it can give it absolution. Sin calls for punishment as | error for correction, and the belief that punishment is correction |
Tx:19.18 | Sin is not an | error, for sin entails an arrogance which the idea of error lacks. To |
Tx:19.18 | Sin is not an error, for sin entails an arrogance which the idea of | error lacks. To sin would be to violate reality and to succeed. Sin |
Tx:19.20 | A major tenet in the ego's insane religion is that sin is not | error but truth, and it is innocence that would deceive. Purity |
Tx:19.21 | Any attempt to reinterpret sin as | error is always indefensible to the ego. The idea of sin is wholly |
Tx:19.25 | The attraction of guilt is found in sin, not | error. Sin will be repeated because of this attraction. Fear can |
Tx:19.26 | For what you think is real you want and will not let it go. An | error, on the other hand, is not attractive. What you see clearly as |
Tx:19.27 | then you will but change the form of sin, granting that it was an | error but keeping it uncorrectable. This is not really a change in |
Tx:19.27 | in your perception, for it is sin that calls for punishment, not | error. The Holy Spirit cannot punish sin. Mistakes He recognizes |
Tx:19.29 | Yet from the plane, the line seems discontinuous. And this is but an | error in perception which can be easily corrected in the mind, |
Tx:19.30 | and see beyond it, but not while you believe in sin. In | error, yes; for this can be corrected by the mind. But sin is the |
Tx:19.70 | retaliative attack on what you think has failed you? Use not your | error as the justification for your faithlessness. You have not |
Tx:20.60 | and not the means. Remember this, for otherwise you will make the | error of believing the means are difficult. Yet how can they be |
Tx:20.61 | with attributes of Christ or of the ego. Either must be an | error, for both would place the attributes where they cannot be. And |
Tx:21.59 | you will not give it, thus maintaining the belief. For uncorrected | error of any kind deceives you about the power that is in you to |
Tx:22.1 | by each to be within himself. And each one seems to make a different | error, and one the other cannot understand. Brothers, it is the |
Tx:22.30 | was uncorrectable can be corrected, and thus it must have been an | error. The ego's opposition to correction leads to its fixed belief |
Tx:22.31 | to pass it. Yet reason sees through it easily because it is an | error. The form it takes cannot conceal its emptiness from reason's |
Tx:22.32 | Only the form of | error attracts the ego. Meaning it does not recognize and does not |
Tx:22.32 | or not. Everything which the body's eyes can see is a mistake, an | error in perception, a distorted fragment of the whole, without the |
Tx:22.32 | yet mistakes, regardless of their form, can be corrected. Sin is but | error in a special form the ego venerates. It would preserve all |
Tx:22.33 | Reason will tell you that the form of | error is not what makes it a mistake. If what the form conceals is |
Tx:22.33 | beyond what they were made to see. And they were made to look on | error and not see past it. Theirs is indeed a strange perception, for |
Tx:22.55 | Before a holy relationship there is no sin. The form of | error is no longer seen, and reason, joined with love, looks quietly |
Tx:22.55 | the same Atonement you accepted in your relationship corrects the | error and lays a part of Heaven in its place. How blessed are you who |
Tx:22.57 | have looked upon each other with complete forgiveness from which no | error is excluded and nothing kept hidden what mistake can there be |
Tx:22.60 | attackers more powerful than you. Let us look straight at how this | error came about, for here lies buried the heavy anchor that seems to |
Tx:23.3 | the strength of love because they looked on innocence. And every | error disappeared because they saw it not. Who looks for glory finds |
Tx:23.9 | home, which you believe is yours. You meet at a mistake—an | error in your self-appraisal. The ego joins with an illusion of |
Tx:23.22 | and not correction. For the destruction of the one who makes the | error places him beyond correction and beyond forgiveness. What he |
Tx:24.26 | clings to one illusion can see himself as sinless, for he holds one | error to himself as lovely still. And so he calls it “unforgivable” |
Tx:25.9 | your mind, so that the aim of specialness can be corrected where the | error lies. Because His purpose still is one with both the Father and |
Tx:25.26 | form adapted to the need the Son of God believes he has. Corrected | error is the error's end. And thus has God protected still His Son, |
Tx:25.26 | the error's end. And thus has God protected still His Son, even in | error. There is another purpose in the world that error made because |
Tx:25.26 | His Son, even in error. There is another purpose in the world that | error made because it has another Maker Who can reconcile its goal |
Tx:25.27 | be, and you agree, then must the Maker of the world correct your | error, lest you remain in darkness where the lamps are not. Everyone |
Tx:25.30 | sin has been corrected by His sight. And thus it must have been an | error, not a sin. For what it claimed could never be has been. Sin is |
Tx:25.30 | and so preserved. But to forgive it is to change its state from | error into truth. |
Tx:25.80 | what is unfair must be corrected because it is unfair. And every | error is a perception in which one at least is seen unfairly. Thus is |
Tx:26.11 | worked out so no one loses, is the problem gone, because it was an | error in perception which now has been corrected. One mistake is not |
Tx:26.13 | miracle of justice can correct all errors. Every problem is an | error. It does injustice to the Son of God and therefore is not true. |
Tx:26.40 | instead of live. And will you not forgive him now because he made an | error in the past that God remembers not and is not there? Now you |
Tx:26.52 | Sin is not | error, for it goes beyond correction to impossibility. Yet the belief |
Tx:26.58 | about your will and what you really are? Let us consider what the | error is, so it can be corrected, not protected. |
Tx:26.59 | can leave their source made real and meaningful. And from this | error does the world of sin and sacrifice arise. This world is an |
Tx:26.70 | is made yours and its effects will come to you. In this form is the | error still obscured that is the source of fear. Salvation would |
Tx:27.25 | split between the two. And what you would correct is only half the | error, which you think is all of it. Your brother's sins become the |
Tx:27.85 | the cause and looks not to effects. How else could He correct your | error, who have overlooked the cause entirely? He bids you bring each |
Tx:30.71 | see forgiveness as the natural reaction to distress which rests on | error and thus calls for help. Forgiveness is the only sane |
Tx:30.74 | there be some sin which stands beyond forgiveness. There would be an | error that is more than a mistake—a special form of error which |
Tx:30.74 | would be an error that is more than a mistake—a special form of | error which remains unchangeable, eternal, and beyond correction or |
Tx:30.81 | with this hope in you, and you will understand he could not make an | error that could change the truth in him. It is not difficult to |
Tx:31.76 | love of guilt and death, they all are different names for just one | error—that there is a space between you and your brother, kept |
W1:97.5 | every living thing; offers His sight to everyone who asks; replaces | error with the simple truth. |
W1:103.3 | This basic | error we will try again to bring to truth today and teach ourselves: |

Tx:11.42 | that you have been redeemed. The Holy Spirit guides you into life | eternal, but you must relinquish your investment in death, or you |
Tx:11.46 | has made itself a poor learner. You tried to make the separation | eternal because you wanted to retain the characteristics of creation |
Tx:11.60 | For the real world has slipped quietly into Heaven, where everything | eternal in it has always been. There the Redeemer and the redeemed |
Tx:11.76 | see me. Would I have overcome death for myself alone? And would | eternal life have been given me of the Father unless He had also |
Tx:11.76 | looked upon the deathless in yourself, and you will see only the | eternal as you look out upon a world that cannot die. |
Tx:11.88 | you will see. Yet you will not realize this until you accept the | eternal fact that God's Son is not guilty. He deserves only love |
Tx:11.93 | be as he was created. Deny your world and judge him not, for his | eternal guiltlessness is in the mind of his Father, and protects him |
Tx:11.96 | of the appreciation of eternity. You are immortal because you are | eternal and always must be now. Guilt, then, is a way of holding |
Tx:11.97 | For God has never condemned His Son, and being guiltless, he is | eternal. |

Tx:14.10 | is offered for the single purpose of release from guilt to the | eternal glory of God and His creation. And every teaching that points |
Tx:15.5 | of its own death, it will pursue you still because guilt is | eternal. Such is the ego's version of immortality. And it is this the |
Tx:15.15 | is no longer time at all. For, caught in the single instant of the | eternal sanctity of God's creation, it is transformed into forever. |
Tx:15.15 | of God's creation, it is transformed into forever. Give the | eternal instant that eternity may be remembered for you in that |
Tx:15.16 | The Atonement is in time but not for time. Being in you, it is | eternal. What holds remembrance of God cannot be bound by time. No |
Tx:15.17 | holiness which will remove all fear. For the instant of peace is | eternal because it is wholly without fear. It will come, being |
Tx:15.28 | dwell. Touch no one, then, with littleness, in the name of Christ, | eternal Host unto His Father. |
Tx:15.89 | to be with you forever, you would experience the attraction of the | eternal. No one can hear Him speak of this and long remain willing to |

Tx:17.20 | If all but loving thoughts has been forgotten, what remains is | eternal. And the transformed past is made like the present. No |
Tx:17.36 | of Heaven, the love of God, the tears of Christ, and the joy of His | eternal Spirit are marshaled to defend you from your own attack. For |

Tx:18.85 | union to you, returning your little offering of darkness to the | eternal Light. |
Tx:19.16 | Let then your dedication be to the | eternal and learn how not to interfere with it and make it slave to |
Tx:19.16 | with it and make it slave to time. For what you think you do to the | eternal you do to you. Whom God created as His Son is slave to |
Tx:19.18 | making himself what God created not. Thus is creation seen as not | eternal, and the Will of God open to opposition and defeat. Sin is |

Tx:19.69 | Faith in the eternal is always justified, for the | eternal is forever kind, infinite in its patience, and wholly loving. |
Tx:19.107 | remembrance of his Father, Who knows no sin, no death, but only life | eternal. |
Tx:20.24 | which he held out to you? Did you recognize each other as the | eternal gift of God to you? Did you see the holiness that shone in |
Tx:20.27 | His Son holy and kept him so. In your brother is the light of God's | eternal promise of your immortality. See him as sinless, and there |
Tx:20.53 | without its loveliness. Is this the substitute you want for the | eternal blessing of the holy instant and its unlimited beneficence? |
Tx:21.53 | Therefore, what joined the Will of God must be in you now, being | eternal. You must have set aside a place in which the Holy Spirit can |
Tx:22.18 | No form of misery in reason's eyes can be confused with joy. Joy is | eternal. You can be sure indeed that any seeming happiness that does |
Tx:22.18 | does not last is really fear. Joy does not turn to sorrow, for the | eternal cannot change. But sorrow can be turned to joy, for time |
Tx:22.18 | change. But sorrow can be turned to joy, for time gives way to the | eternal. Only the timeless must remain unchanged, but everything in |
Tx:22.20 | escape from guilt can be attained, then the belief in sin must be | eternal. Yet reason looks on this another way, for reason sees the |
Tx:22.55 | you. And every empty place in Heaven that you fill again with the | Eternal Light you bring shines now on you. The means of sinlessness |
Tx:22.56 | loves. And what you bring is your remembrance of everything that is | eternal. No trace of anything in time can long remain in minds that |
Tx:23.7 | there is conflict, for a mind at war against itself remembers not | eternal gentleness. The means of war are not the means of peace, and |
Tx:23.24 | directly to the third preposterous belief that seems to make chaos | eternal. For if God cannot be mistaken, then He must accept his |
Tx:23.37 | impossible, and beyond all reason, and yet perceived as an | eternal barrier to Heaven. Illusions are but forms. Their content |
Tx:24.25 | death of specialness is not your death but your awaking into life | eternal. You but emerge from an illusion of what you are to the |
Tx:25.55 | Each sees a world immutable, as each defines the changeless and | eternal truth of what you are. And each reflects a view of what the |
Tx:25.61 | sanity restored. And on this single rock of truth can faith in God's | eternal saneness rest in perfect confidence and perfect peace. Reason |
Tx:25.77 | peace, complete deliverance from all effects of sin, and to the life | eternal, joyous and complete in every way, as God appointed for His |
Tx:26.34 | The tiny instant you would keep and make | eternal passed away in Heaven too soon for anything to notice it had |
Tx:26.49 | world of sickness which applies to all its forms. God's answer is | eternal, though it operates in time where it is needed. Yet because |
Tx:27.5 | attack and therefore never suffered pain at all. It witnesses to the | eternal truth that you cannot be hurt and points beyond itself to |
Tx:28.14 | generate a different past or future. Its effects are changelessly | eternal, beyond fear, and past the world of sin entirely. |
Tx:29.1 | The compromise the least and littlest gap would represent in His | eternal love is quite impossible. For it would mean His love could |
Tx:29.1 | a hint of hate; His gentleness turn sometimes to attack; and His | eternal patience sometimes fail. All this do you believe, when you |
Tx:29.9 | Yet all that happens when the gap is gone is peace | eternal. Nothing more than that, and nothing less. Without the fear |
Tx:29.32 | see in him. Nothing is asked of you but to accept the changeless and | eternal that abide in him, for your Identity is there. The peace in |
Tx:29.32 | love you offer him but brings you nearer to your wakening to peace | eternal and to endless joy. |
Tx:29.37 | is found. Let us be glad indeed that this is so and seek not the | eternal in this world. Forgiving dreams are means to step aside from |
Tx:29.39 | is the only thing in all the universe that must be one. What seems | eternal all will have an end. The stars will disappear, and night and |
Tx:29.39 | and fade will not return. Where time has set an end is not where the | eternal is. God's Son can never change by what men made of him. He |
Tx:29.40 | goal unlike God's purpose for you and establish it as changeless and | eternal. You can give yourself a purpose that you do not have. But |
Tx:29.40 | Change is the greatest gift God gave to all that you would make | eternal, to ensure that only Heaven would not pass away. |
Tx:29.56 | to what has life and power worthy of the gift of Heaven and | eternal peace. The miracle does not restore the truth, the light the |
Tx:29.57 | omnipotence, a place beyond the infinite, a time transcending the | eternal. Here the world of idols has been set by the idea this power |

Tx:30.47 | In perfect sureness of its changelessness and of its rest in its | eternal home, the Thought God holds of you has never left the mind of |
Tx:30.48 | a world which your reality knows nothing of? Outside you there is no | eternal sky, no changeless star, and no reality. The mind of Heaven's |

Tx:31.8 | and had lost a friend who always wanted to be part of you. The soft, | eternal calling of each part of God's creation to the whole is heard |

D:3.2 | but a call to life. It is not of the past or the future but of the | eternal now. It is within you as we speak, the tone and timbre of |
D:3.19 | of the new, because the elevated Self of form is new. The Self is | eternal. Your Self of elevated form is newly birthed, just as I was |
D:3.19 | birthed, just as I was once newly birthed even though my Self was | eternal. One of the major things we will be seeing as we proceed is |
D:5.15 | acceptance that recognizes that while the Self that God created is | eternal and the self of form as ancient as the sea and stars, the |
D:15.11 | life took on existence in form and space. It is temporal rather than | eternal. Alongside it, in the state of unity, rests all that is |
D:15.11 | than eternal. Alongside it, in the state of unity, rests all that is | eternal, all that is real. What is real is but another way of saying |
D:15.11 | is real is but another way of saying what is true. What is true is | eternal life, not temporal life. There are no degrees of life. One |
D:15.11 | All that lives contains the breath or wind of spirit, which is | eternal and complete. |
D:15.12 | Expression, movement, and being are about what is | eternal passing through what is temporal. Thus I return you to the |
D:15.12 | is a relationship without end. What passes through you now is the | eternal come to replace the temporal. |
D:15.13 | To try to capture the | eternal would be like trying to catch the wind. But just as the wind |
D:16.6 | any more than it is an attribute. This is because love remains in | eternal wholeness. Love cannot be learned, and so has stood apart |
D:16.7 | is a description of the All of All because it is whole and rests in | eternal completion and wholeness. Love is the state of unity, the |

D:Day1.5 | to exclude others in whom you believe and have found a connection to | eternal life, only to accept me as who I am. |
D:Day2.17 | It is hard for you to believe that my resurrection heralded | eternal life when death has been a constant companion of all those |
D:Day2.17 | me you will not walk in my footsteps. Perhaps you will be granted | eternal life, but not until you have suffered as I suffered. This |
D:Day2.24 | to demonstrate that the end of suffering had come, and with it, | eternal life. |
D:Day4.46 | what living from love is. It means that you will resurrect to | eternal life here and now. It means no turning back, no return to |
D:Day16.2 | because you have felt it, is still there because consciousness is | eternal. All that you have learned that has touched your heart is |

Tx:5.6 | while this kind of thinking is totally alien to having things, | even to the lower mind it is quite comprehensible in connection with |

Tx:5.41 | to conceal this part, it is still much stronger than the ego, | even though the ego does not recognize it. The Holy Spirit recognizes |
Tx:5.44 | because it introduces meaning. It is, however, below knowledge | even though it can grow towards it. It is possible, with great |
Tx:5.50 | act of sharing. That is what is meant when we said it is possible | even in this world to listen to one voice. If you are part of God |
Tx:5.65 | by punishing itself it will mitigate the punishment of God. Yet | even in this it is arrogant. It attributes to God a punishing intent, |

Tx:6.39 | That is its natural talent. The word “knows” is correct here, | even though the ego does not know and is not concerned with being |
Tx:6.59 | harm so much as what you need to learn to have joy. This is true | even of the world's teachers. Consider the confusion a child would |

Tx:6.70 | teach yourselves wrong. Many thought that I was attacking them, | even though it was quite apparent that I was not. An insane learner |

Tx:7.36 | This perception is therefore in accord with the laws of God, | even in a state of mind which is out of accord with His. The |
Tx:7.99 | further elaboration here, but both are clearly indefensible, | even if you elect to defend them. |

Tx:8.48 | themselves or Him. Yet their thought is so powerful that they can | even imprison the mind of God's Son if they so choose. This choice |
Tx:8.61 | In the world, not | even the body is perceived as whole. Its purpose is seen as |
Tx:8.66 | of the body as a means of attack of any kind and to entertain | even the possibility that joy could possibly result is a clear-cut |
Tx:8.78 | seriously considered the distorting power of something you want, | even if it is not true? You have had many instances of how what you |
Tx:8.82 | Wholeness heals because it is of the mind. All forms of sickness, | even unto death, are physical expressions of the fear of awakening. |
Tx:8.85 | make nothing out of what God created. The ego despises weakness, | even though it makes every effort to induce it. The ego wants |
Tx:8.108 | case, your attainment of it would no longer be what you want, | even if it is. This accounts for why certain specific forms of |
Tx:8.108 | for why certain specific forms of healing are not achieved, | even though the state of healing is. It frequently happens that an |
Tx:9.15 | with it by now. The ego believes that all functions belong to it, | even though it has no idea what they are. This is more than mere |
Tx:9.24 | It is noteworthy that this is a contradiction | even in the ego's terms, and one which it usually does note, even |
Tx:9.24 | even in the ego's terms, and one which it usually does note, | even in its confusion. If the way to counteract fear is to reduce |
Tx:9.31 | Him at all? If you inspire joy, and others react to you with joy | even though you are not experiencing joy yourself, there must be |
Tx:9.34 | God is more than you only because He created you, but not | even this would He keep from you. Therefore you can create as He |
Tx:9.41 | forgets what you are. The ego is deceived by everything you do, | even when you respond to the Holy Spirit, because at such times its |
Tx:9.51 | God's grandeur, because His grandeur establishes your freedom. | Even the faintest hint of your reality literally drives the ego from |
Tx:9.65 | to happen did not happen at all. You do not think this mysterious, | even though all the laws of what you awakened to were violated |
Tx:9.68 | afraid of your dissociation, not of what you have dissociated. | Even in this world's therapy, when dissociated material is |
Tx:9.77 | Do not side with sickness in the presence of a Son of God | even if he believes in it, for your acceptance of God in him |
Tx:10.3 | thought system, the darker and more obscure becomes the way. Yet | even the little spark in your mind is enough to lighten it. Bring |
Tx:10.13 | capable of this? Your will is His Life, which He has given to you. | Even in time you cannot live apart from Him, for sleep is not death. |
Tx:10.27 | God hides nothing from His Son, | even though His Son would hide himself. Yet the Son of God cannot |
Tx:10.45 | lies. The ego sees all dependency as threatening and has twisted | even your longing for God into a means of establishing itself. But |
Tx:10.48 | distant, emotionally shallow, callous, uninvolved, and | even desperate, but not really afraid. Minimizing fear but not |
Tx:10.75 | the bad, the false and the true. For as Heaven and earth become one, | even the real world will vanish from your sight. The end of the world |
Tx:11.28 | Never lose sight of this, and never allow yourself to believe | even for an instant that there is another answer. For you will |
Tx:11.29 | making him afraid of himself. He does not realize this. | Even if he is fully aware of anxiety, he does not perceive its source |
Tx:11.33 | You were willing to accept | even death to deny your Father. Yet He would not have it so, and so |
Tx:11.50 | and succeed, for that is your will. But you do not realize | even yet that there is something you do will to learn, and that |
Tx:11.81 | relinquished the insane desire to control reality. You who cannot | even control yourselves should hardly aspire to control the universe. |
Tx:12.3 | you have betrayed God's Son by condemning him to death. You do not | even suspect this murderous but insane idea lies hidden there, for |
Tx:12.8 | the release from guilt, and this is correct if it is understood. Yet | even when I have interpreted it for you, you have rejected it and |
Tx:12.11 | You could look | even upon the ego's darkest cornerstone without fear if you did not |
Tx:12.11 | without the ego, you would find within yourself something you fear | even more. You are not afraid of crucifixion. Your real terror is |
Tx:12.12 | nothing compared to your fear of love. You would be willing to look | even upon your savage wish to kill God's Son if you did not believe |
Tx:12.25 | circumstances, would it not be more desirable to have been wrong, | even apart from the fact that you were wrong? While it could |
Tx:12.25 | there was life, no one would claim that it proves there is life. | Even the past life which death might indicate could only have been |
Tx:12.25 | this. You could heal and be healed if you did question it. And | even though you know not Heaven, might it not be more desirable than |
Tx:12.42 | not return unto the Father until He has extended your perception | even unto Him. And there perception is no more, for He has returned |
Tx:12.57 | and have been faithful in your giving, for you were not alone. | Even in sleep has Christ protected you, ensuring the real world for |
Tx:12.61 | it not dear, for it is old and tired and ready to return to dust | even as you made it. This aching world has not the power to touch the |
Tx:12.62 | Yet the real world has the power to touch you | even here because you love it. And what you call with love will |
Tx:12.69 | leaves you nothing, for what you get, it will demand of you. And | even from the very hands that grasped it, it will be wrenched and |
Tx:13.2 | is all knowledge. Perception at its loftiest is never complete. | Even the perception of the Holy Spirit, as perfect as perception can |
Tx:13.4 | and that is why Christ's vision looks on everything with love. Yet | even Christ's vision is not His reality. The golden aspects of |
Tx:13.5 | must come into the darkened world to make Christ's vision possible | even here. Help Him to give His gift of light to all who think they |
Tx:13.21 | is why they are insane. No real relationship can rest on guilt or | even hold one spot of it to mar its purity. For all relationships |
Tx:13.24 | you to the past, but with each one each day be born again. A minute, | even less, will be enough to free you from the past and give your |
Tx:13.33 | of this, I treasure you beyond the value that you set on yourselves, | even unto the worth that God has placed upon you. I love all that He |
Tx:13.34 | we shine with brightness so intense that none of us alone can | even think on it. Before the glorious radiance of the Kingdom, guilt |
Tx:13.35 | Forgetfulness and sleep and | even death become the ego's best advice for how to deal with the |
Tx:13.37 | sense of peace so deep that no dream in this world has ever brought | even a dim imagining of what it is. |
Tx:13.43 | you. Salvation is as sure as God. His certainty suffices. Learn that | even the darkest nightmare that disturbed the Mind of God's sleeping |
Tx:13.68 | Each day, each hour and minute, | even every second, you are deciding between the crucifixion and the |
Tx:13.86 | you have acknowledged. Yet truth is offered first to be received, | even as God gave it first to His Son. The first in time means |
Tx:14.2 | felt, apart from Him, that resembles it ever so faintly. You cannot | even give a blessing in perfect gentleness. Would you know of One Who |
Tx:14.21 | language is communication, how can this tongue mean anything? Yet | even this strange and twisted effort to communicate through not |
Tx:14.48 | You have experienced lack of competition among your thoughts, which, | even though they may conflict, can occur to you together and in great |
Tx:14.59 | lesson so unthinkable that only the insane, in deepest sleep, could | even dream of it. Can God learn how not to be God? And can His Son, |
Tx:14.63 | are wholly free of fear of any kind, and if all those who meet or | even think of you share in your perfect peace, then you can be sure |
Tx:15.3 | beyond the grave. And out of its unwillingness for you to find peace | even in the death it wants for you, it offers you immortality in |
Tx:15.6 | teaches that Heaven is here and now because the future is hell. | Even when it attacks so savagely that it tries to take the life of |
Tx:15.6 | who hears it temporarily as the only voice, it speaks of hell | even to him. For it tells him hell is here and bids him leap from |
Tx:15.6 | anyone to look upon with some amount of equanimity is the past. And | even there its only value is that it is no more. |
Tx:15.18 | Himself to encompass you. You who have spent days, hours, and | even years in chaining your brothers to your egos in an attempt to |
Tx:15.34 | before His holy altar, which rises above the stars and reaches | even to Heaven because of what is given it. |
Tx:15.51 | ego's use of relationships is so fragmented that it frequently goes | even further—one part of one aspect suits its purposes, while it |
Tx:15.77 | in real relationship, so holy and so strong that it can overcome | even this without fear. It is through the holy instant that what |
Tx:15.107 | condition of love by teaching that communication remains unbroken, | even if the body is destroyed, provided that you see not the body as |
Tx:16.14 | is true. But can you really believe that all that has happened, | even though you do not understand it, has not happened? Yet this |
Tx:16.23 | And yet, this Self you clearly do not know and do not recognize It | even though It functions. What functions must be there. And it is |
Tx:16.44 | often quite open. Here they are usually judged to be acceptable and | even natural. No one considers it bizarre to love and hate together, |
Tx:16.44 | natural. No one considers it bizarre to love and hate together, and | even those who believe that hate is sin merely feel guilty and do not |
Tx:16.47 | completion lies in triumph and in the extension of the “victory” | even to the final triumph over God. In this it sees the ultimate |
Tx:16.54 | and love has lost its meaning. Would you want this to be possible, | even apart from its evident impossibility? For if it were possible, |
Tx:16.62 | Yet the special relationship which the ego seeks does not include | even one whole individual. For the ego wants but part of him and |
Tx:16.65 | and comfort rather than despair in this: You could no longer find | even the illusion of love in any special relationship here. For you |
Tx:16.74 | does not seem to be an acting out of vengeance which you seek. And | even when the hatred and the savagery break briefly through into |
Tx:17.7 | that made your heart seem to sing with joy has ever brought you | even a little part of the happiness this sight will bring you. For |
Tx:17.11 | of your lack of reason is suddenly released to loveliness. Not | even what the Son of God made in insanity could be without a hidden |
Tx:17.12 | home. And there he knows that he has always rested there in peace. | Even salvation will become a dream and vanish from his mind. For |
Tx:17.17 | union is attempted but the bodies of those who are not there. | Even the body of the other, already a severely limited perception of |
Tx:17.19 | it becomes. Thus, the attempt at union becomes a way of excluding | even the one with whom the union was sought. For it was formed to get |
Tx:17.29 | You have made very real relationships | even in this world which you do not recognize simply because you have |
Tx:17.45 | but it makes the relationship seem disturbed, disjunctive, and | even quite distressing. The reason is quite clear. For the |
Tx:17.47 | are inevitably appalled. Their perception of the relationship may | even become quite disorganized. And yet, the former organization of |
Tx:17.49 | a most explicit statement? Now He asks for faith a little longer, | even in bewilderment. For this will go, and you will see the |
Tx:17.75 | coming. Let it encompass every situation and bring you peace. Not | even faith is asked of you, for truth asks nothing. Let it enter, and |
Tx:18.42 | will build a ladder planted in the solid rock of faith and rising | even to Heaven. Nor will you use it to ascend to Heaven alone. |
Tx:18.44 | is an undertaking impossible for you to understand. You do not | even realize you have accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose as your |
Tx:18.46 | to deal with it alone. Never believe that this is necessary or | even possible. Yet just as this is impossible, so is it equally |
Tx:18.60 | anything and anywhere—a sound, a sight, a thought, a memory, and | even a general idea without specific reference. Yet in every case, |
Tx:18.71 | you identify with externals, something outside itself. You cannot | even think of God without a body or some form you think you recognize. |
Tx:18.74 | Yet neither sun nor ocean is | even aware of all this strange and meaningless activity. They merely |
Tx:18.74 | that they are feared and hated by a tiny segment of themselves. | Even that segment is not lost to them, for it could not survive |
Tx:18.94 | Yet | even forgiveness is not the end. Forgiveness does make lovely, but |
Tx:19.19 | The Son of God can be mistaken; he can deceive himself; he can | even turn the power of his mind against himself. But he cannot sin. |
Tx:19.50 | fear would feed upon, love overlooks. What fear demands, love cannot | even see. |
Tx:19.51 | their master calls upon them to serve him. For fear is merciless | even to its friends. Its messengers steal guiltily away in hungry |
Tx:19.74 | of attack and guilt will someone other than yourself suffer. And | even if you suffer, yet someone else will suffer more. The great |
Tx:19.87 | enter and disturb the peace of sinlessness? What has been given you, | even in its infancy, is in full communication with God and you. In |
Tx:19.90 | and of the universe of universes and of everything that lies | even beyond them would you remember. And as this memory rises in your |
Tx:19.92 | in secret to the ego never to lift this veil, not to approach it nor | even to suspect that it is there. This is the secret bargain made |
Tx:19.99 | is not enough. A journey without a purpose is still meaningless, and | even when it is over, it seems to make no sense. How can you know |
Tx:20.39 | attempt to judge what lies so far beyond your judgment you cannot | even see it? Judge not what is invisible to you or you will never |
Tx:20.48 | its relationships must be unholy, for what they are, it does not | even see. It wants them solely for the offerings on which its idols |
Tx:20.50 | condemnation. For here is love made fearful and hope abandoned. | Even the idols that are worshiped here are shrouded in mystery and |
Tx:21.17 | for you. This is the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit, and | even this He gave to you to give yourself. For by this gift is given |
Tx:21.42 | Its rule is tempered, and its unknown “enemy,” Whom it cannot | even see, it fears. Loudly the ego tells you not to look inward, for |
Tx:21.73 | there. Yes, it can dream it found an enemy, but this will shift | even as it attacks, so that it runs at once to find another and never |
Tx:21.73 | treacherous does this enemy appear, who changes so it is impossible | even to recognize him! |
Tx:21.86 | is a condition quite alien to your understanding. Yet if you could | even imagine what it must be, you would desire it although you |
Tx:22.40 | Yet it is almost over in your awareness, and peace has reached you | even here before the veil. Think what will happen after! The love of |
Tx:22.52 | that anyone who chooses this has no idea of what is valuable. Yet | even in this confusion, so profound it cannot be described, the Holy |
Tx:23.24 | believe; and how He must respond, believing it. It is not seen as | even necessary that He be asked about the truth of what has been |
Tx:23.52 | and murderous, remember you can see the battle from above. | Even in forms you do not recognize, the signs you know. There is a |
Tx:24.14 | Specialness is the idea of sin made real. Sin is impossible | even to imagine without this base. For sin arose from it out of |
Tx:24.29 | by everything that walks and breathes or creeps or crawls or | even lives at all. Nothing is safe from its attack, and it is safe |
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, |
Tx:24.71 | become the means to serve his “father's” purpose. Not identical, not | even like, but still a means to offer to the “father” what he |
Tx:24.72 | difference does not lie in how they look, nor where they go, nor | even what they do. They have a different purpose. It is this that |
Tx:25.26 | error is the error's end. And thus has God protected still His Son, | even in error. There is another purpose in the world that error made |
Tx:25.33 | effects, believing them to be the bringers of rejoicing and of joy. | Even in Heaven does this law obtain. The Son of God creates to bring |
Tx:26.44 | give? Who can believe illusions are the same and still maintain that | even one is best? |
Tx:27.21 | in the sacrifice. How could the Holy Spirit be deterred an instant, | even less, to reason with an argument for sickness such as this? And |
Tx:27.26 | In this interpretation of correction, your own mistakes you will not | even see. The focus of correction has been placed outside yourself on |
Tx:27.30 | thought, where half is canceled out by the remaining half. Yet | even this is quickly contradicted by the half it canceled out, and so |
Tx:27.40 | A pseudo-question has no answer. It dictates the answer | even as it asks. Thus is all questioning within the world a form of |
Tx:27.72 | between your dreams and your reality. The little gap you do not | even see, the birthplace of illusions and of fear, the time of terror |
Tx:27.78 | tosses them away for senseless things it does not need and does not | even want. It hires other bodies, that they may protect it, and |
Tx:29.37 | dreams are shared, they lose the function of attack and separation, | even though it was for this that every dream was made. Yet nothing in |
Tx:29.42 | body only if you think 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 |
Tx:29.59 | more of what—more beauty, more intelligence, more wealth, or | even more affliction and more pain. But more of something is an |
Tx:30.15 | 4. If you are so unwilling to receive you cannot | even let your question go, you can begin to change your mind with |
Tx:30.56 | asks so little, not so much. It asks for nothing in reality. And | even in illusions it but asks forgiveness be the substitute for fear. |
Tx:30.60 | knows how this can be, for understanding this is Heaven itself. | Even the real world has a purpose still beneath creation and |
Tx:31.3 | There is no greater power in the world. The world was made by it and | even now depends on nothing else. The lessons you have taught |
Tx:31.3 | your will is not your own, your thoughts do not belong to you, and | even you are someone else. |
Tx:31.44 | the aspect acted on. It is this face that smiles and charms and | even seems to love. It searches for companions, and it looks at times |
Tx:31.51 | what proof there is that you are what your brother made of you. For | even though you do not yet perceive that this is what you think, you |
Tx:31.52 | That you are what your brother made of you seems most unlikely. | Even if he did, who gave the face of innocence to you? Is this your |
W1:I.5 | to apply them to what you see. You are not asked to judge them nor | even to believe them. You are asked only to use them. It is their use |
W1:10.8 | period be extended, and it should be reduced to half a minute or | even less if you experience discomfort. Remember, however, to repeat |
W1:11.3 | in particular. The words, however, should be used in an unhurried, | even leisurely fashion. The introduction to this idea should be |
W1:12.2 | markedly longer or shorter, but try, instead, to keep a measured, | even tempo throughout. What you see does not matter. You teach |
W1:12.9 | today. Nor should the practice periods exceed a minute. You may find | even this too long. Terminate the exercises whenever you experience a |
W1:13.8 | recognizing. Do not dwell on the concluding statement, and try not | even to think of it except during the exercise periods. That will |
W1:14.3 | which can truly be called salvation, can be quite difficult and | even quite painful. Some of them will lead you directly into fear. |
W1:17.9 | recommended and no less than three are required for maximum benefit | even if you experience resistance. However, if you do, the length of |
W1:18.7 | A minute or so or | even less will be sufficient. |
W1:19.2 | seems to carry with it an enormous sense of responsibility and may | even be regarded as an “invasion of privacy.” Yet it is a fact that |
W1:20.1 | time for undertaking them, minimal effort has been required, and not | even active cooperation and interest have been asked. This casual |
W1:23.4 | can light your images and so transform them that you will love them | even though they were made of hate. For you will not be making them |
W1:24.7 | as many different kinds of outcome as may honestly occur to you, | even if some of them do not appear to you to be directly related to |
W1:24.7 | them do not appear to you to be directly related to the situation or | even to be inherent in it at all. |
W1:27.6 | to it throughout the day. It will not be difficult to do this, | even if you are engaged in conversation or otherwise occupied at the |
W1:29.2 | this point. You may find it silly, irreverent, senseless, funny, and | even objectionable. Certainly God is not in a table, for example, as |
W1:30.1 | it what you have never seen before. Nor will what you saw before be | even faintly visible to you. |
W1:41.7 | easy because it is the most natural thing in the world. You might | even say it is the only natural thing in the world. The way will open |
W1:41.7 | that it is possible. This exercise can bring very startling results | even the first time it is attempted. And sooner or later, it is |
W1:44.10 | correctly, you should experience some sense of relaxation and | even a feeling that you are approaching if not actually entering into |
W1:45.11 | be unable as yet to realize how high you are trying to go. Yet | even with the little understanding you have already gained, you |
W1:54.4 | If I have no private thoughts, I cannot see a private world. | Even the mad idea of separation had to be shared before it could form |
W1:66.4 | happiness. Therefore the function He gave you must be happiness, | even if it appears to be different. Today's exercises are an attempt |
W1:66.7 | Try to see the logic in this sequence, | even if you do not yet accept the conclusion. It is only if the first |
W1:67.7 | with false self-images. Four or five times an hour, and perhaps | even more, it would be most beneficial to remind yourself that Love |
W1:68.5 | will try to find out how you would feel without them. If you succeed | even by ever so little, there will never be a problem in motivation |
W1:68.6 | the seemingly minor grievances you hold against those you like and | even think you love. It will quickly become apparent that there is no |
W1:74.12 | There is definite gain in refusing to allow retreat into withdrawal, | even if you do not experience the peace you seek. |
W1:76.9 | Perhaps you | even think that there are laws which set forth what is God's and what |
W1:78.5 | the grievances aside and look at him. Someone perhaps you fear and | even hate; someone you think you love who angers you; someone you |
W1:78.7 | and better points as well, and we will think of his mistakes and | even of his “sins.” |
W1:79.1 | A problem cannot be solved if you do not know what it is. | Even if it is really solved already, you will still have the problem |
W1:79.2 | problem has been solved if he thinks the problem is something else? | Even if he is given the answer, he cannot see its relevance. |
W1:91.2 | light is to perceive darkness. The light is useless to you then, | even though it is there. You cannot use it because its presence is |
W1:93.12 | You may not be willing or | even able to use the first five minutes of each hour for these |
W1:107.2 | Try to remember when there was a time—perhaps a minute, maybe | even less—when nothing came to interrupt your peace; when you were |
W1:108.1 | and mistaken thoughts into one concept which is wholly true? | Even that one will disappear because the Thought behind it will |
W1:R3.9 | to be done throughout the day are equally important and perhaps of | even greater value. You have been inclined to practice only at |
W1:129.4 | Yet | even they will be exchanged at last for what we cannot speak of, for |
W1:133.9 | deceived, for what the ego wants it fails to recognize. It does not | even tell the truth as it perceives it, for it needs to keep the halo |
W1:136.3 | of the rapidity with which you choose to use them. In that second, | even less, in which the choice is made, you recognize exactly what |
W1:138.4 | are confronting you when there is really only one to make. And | even this but seems to be a choice. Do not confuse yourself with all |
W1:151.2 | you through the body's eyes. Nor do you ask why you believe it, | even though you learned a long while since your senses do deceive. |
W1:151.2 | That you believe them to the last detail which they report is | even stranger when you pause to recollect how frequently they have |
W1:153.16 | faithful to the will we share with God. At times, perhaps, a minute, | even less, will be the most that we can offer as the hour strikes. |
W1:153.18 | goes with you. Nor would you keep your mind away from Him a moment, | even though your time is spent in offering salvation to the world. |
W1:155.2 | and avoid their own reality. Yet when they find their own reality is | even here, then they step back and let it lead the way. What other |
W1:157.9 | with you, but there will be an instant which transcends all vision, | even this, the holiest. This you will never teach, for you attained |
W1:163.7 | The idea of the death of God is so preposterous that | even the insane have difficulty in believing it. For it implies that |
W1:166.4 | not realize he has forgotten where he came from, where he goes, and | even who he really is. |
W1:166.9 | has touched your shoulder, and you feel that you are not alone. You | even think the miserable self you thought was you may not be your |
W1:167.2 | not perfect joy. All sorrow, loss, anxiety, and suffering and pain, | even a little sigh of weariness, a slight discomfort or the merest |
W1:167.10 | in any form today. Nor will we let imagined opposites to life abide | even an instant where the thought of life eternal has been set by God |
W1:169.6 | We cannot speak nor write nor | even think of this at all. It comes to every mind when total |
W1:170.7 | out relentlessly to those who ask if the demands are sensible or | even sane. It is their enemies who are unreasonable and insane, while |
W1:181.4 | also been dismayed by the depressing and restricting thought that, | even if you should succeed, you will inevitably lose your way again. |
W1:182.11 | without existence. Christ has called you friend and brother. He has | even come to you to ask your help in letting Him go home completed |
W1:183.1 | turn for their identity. Your Father's Name reminds you who you are, | even within a world that does not know; even though you have not |
W1:183.1 | reminds you who you are, even within a world that does not know; | even though you have not remembered it. |
W1:186.14 | here as it is needed. In this form, you can fulfill your function | even here, although what love will mean to you when formlessness has |
W1:192.3 | Creation cannot | even be conceived of in the world. It has no meaning here. |
W1:194.3 | upon a throne and worshiped faithfully. In no one instant can one | even die. And so each instant given unto God in passing, with the |
W1:194.3 | given Him already, is a time of your release from sadness, pain and | even death itself. |
W1:195.2 | suffering replaced with laughter and with happiness. Nor could the | even partly sane refuse to take the steps which He directs and follow |
W1:195.8 | see that everything has earned the right to love by being loving, | even as your Self. |
W1:196.6 | this thought is true. And he will not perceive its foolishness nor | even see that it is there so that it would be possible to question it. |
W1:199.8 | Heaven offers thanks for the increase of joy your practice brings | even to it. And God Himself extends His Love and happiness each time |

W2:253.1 | It is impossible that anything should come to me unbidden by myself. | Even in this world, it is I who rule my destiny. What happens is what |

W2:334.1 | my Father offers me. Illusions must be vain and dreams are gone, | even while they are woven out of thoughts that rest on false |
W2:345.1 | one I give returns to me, reminding me the law of love is universal. | Even here it takes a form which can be recognized and seen to work. |
W2:355.1 | treasure waits for me, and I need but reach out my hand to find it. | Even now my fingers touch it. It is very close. I need not wait an |
M:1.1 | light, but that is enough. He has entered an agreement with God | even if he does not yet believe in Him. He has become a bringer of |
M:2.3 | the course emphasizes, you are not free to choose the curriculum or | even the form in which you will learn it. You are free, however, to |
M:2.4 | to an instant so ancient that it is beyond all memory and past | even the possibility of remembering. Yet because it is an instant |
M:3.2 | for bumping into him; perhaps the students will become friends. | Even at the level of the most casual encounter, it is possible for |
M:3.5 | necessarily recognize this; in fact, they generally do not. They may | even be quite hostile to each other for some time, and perhaps for |
M:3.5 | lesson, they become the saviors of the teachers who falter and may | even seem to fail. No teacher of God can fail to find the Help he |
M:4.12 | wish to deceive that makes for war. No one at one with himself can | even conceive of conflict. Conflict is the inevitable result of |
M:4.20 | whom it seemed to happen. Perhaps it was not understood at the time. | Even so, the teacher of God is willing to reconsider all his past |
M:5.8 | and they obey. They have no idea how insane this concept is. If they | even suspected it, they would be healed. Yet they suspect nothing. To |
M:6.1 | depression, and a sense of loss so deep that the patient might | even try to destroy himself. Having nothing to live for, he may ask |
M:10.1 | is “good judgment” to one is “bad judgment” to another. Further, | even the same person classifies the same action as showing “good” |
M:12.1 | who was always wholly spirit now no longer sees Himself as a body or | even as in a body. Therefore He is limitless. And being limitless, |
M:12.3 | to the deluded. Only a very few can hear God's Voice at all, and | even they cannot communicate His messages directly through the Spirit |
M:14.2 | the world is over. It will not be destroyed nor attacked nor | even touched. It will merely cease to seem to be. |

M:16.11 | —that it works. All through his training, every day and hour, and | even every minute and second, must God's teachers learn to recognize |
M:17.4 | aroused. It may be merely slight irritation, perhaps too mild to be | even clearly recognized. Or it may also take the form of intense rage |
M:17.8 | interpretation and not a fact, it is never justified. Once this is | even dimly grasped, the way is open. Now it is possible to take the |
M:18.5 | of God to let all his own mistakes be corrected. If he senses | even the faintest hint of irritation in himself as he responds to |

A Course of Love (416) | ||
C:P.3 | The separated self or the ego does not learn. | Even when the ego has taken many courses and received many teachings, |
C:P.13 | or your discoveries of other forms of the truth, although you may | even have experienced what seemed to be miracles happening “to” you, |
C:P.16 | to you, and choosing it instead. You do not see that this choice, | even made with every good intention of going back and making a |
C:P.16 | You are so afraid to let go of the world that you have known that, | even though it is a world of conflict, sickness, and death, you will |
C:P.25 | The way to overcome the dualism that threatens | even the most astute of learners is through the Christ in you, |
C:P.26 | that is given him or her, and this too is seen as acceptable and | even “right.” |
C:P.29 | hours pass endlessly in toil that is the cost of your survival here. | Even those who have studied much and learned the lessons of the |
C:P.31 | another human being, and yet you keep seeking this type of knowing. | Even with another human being, knowing what they stand for, what |
C:P.40 | To tell someone, | even a young child, that a caterpillar becomes a butterfly is |
C:1.3 | the heart to the body. You would not exist without love. It is there | even if you are as unaware of it as you are of the beating of your |
C:1.3 | it does not realize its heart is beating. You are no less your Self | even though you do not realize that without love you would not exist. |
C:1.16 | do you continue to recognize that love is at the heart of all things | even while it is not valued here? Here is a fine example that means |
C:2.8 | Yet you believe that to think the opposite is true insanity. Given | even your limited view of who you are, could this really be true? |
C:2.9 | of your ego. Your true Self does not want to forget, and cannot for | even the tiniest fraction of a second. It is precisely the inability |
C:2.12 | an advocate of heartlessness but wholeheartedness. If you believe | even the tiniest fraction of what is true, if you but believe you are |
C:2.13 | of Him, to create what is unlike to His being in every way. Would | even you attempt such folly? Would you conceive of the inconceivable? |
C:2.19 | this happens, the ego takes pride in what the mind has acquired, | even unto the greater peace and contentment offered by your learning. |
C:2.19 | on the back for your new abilities. Without your vigilance it may | even seem to have become stronger than before and fiercer in its |
C:3.4 | you see and those you only can imagine. To seek the “face” of God, | even in the form of Christ, is to seek for what is forever without |
C:3.7 | Each one you place in relationship to yourself, and so you do not | even see the form as it is but only as what it will do for you. You |
C:4.3 | Its eternal presence. Longing is your proof of love's existence, for | even here you would not long for what is not remembered. |
C:4.19 | Even you who do not recognize what love is protect what you call love | |
C:4.22 | dream have earned the right to turn their backs upon the world | even for the scanty hours that they make believe they can do so. |
C:5.6 | you have forgotten that it exists. All truth lies in relationship, | even one so simple as this. The pencil is not real, nor the hand that |
C:5.11 | come from love, your response to them is what is guided by fear. | Even feelings of destruction and violence come from love. You are not |
C:5.22 | so on your own, the more you realize the futility of your efforts, | even though you do not want to admit that your efforts are futile. |
C:6.4 | That the universe is an interrelated whole is no longer disputed | even by science. What you have made to hide your reality has been, |
C:6.10 | How can it be for you if you cannot put in effort to attain it? And | even if it were so, what then? Some, you think, might choose to live |
C:6.14 | would indeed be a failure if it were possible for it to be so. Yet | even this possibility you would cling to, for with no chance of |
C:6.20 | in bodily form, perhaps, yet you imagine them happy and at peace. | Even those who claim not to believe in God or an afterlife of any |
C:7.2 | And yet you would withhold a piece of yourself | even from love, and this is what we must correct. For what you |
C:7.4 | you have determined to be unique, your existence would seem to serve | even less purpose than it does now. Thus that which is most separate, |
C:7.11 | that you choose this form of withholding, sometimes dozens or | even hundreds of times a day. An unreturned phone call, a bit of |
C:7.11 | of these in your mind, and there you build them into reasons for | even further withholding. Now you have an excuse—or several excuses |
C:7.11 | anyone when your day has already treated you so badly? You withhold | even a smile, because you have chosen grievances over love. |
C:7.13 | What you do not realize is that every situation is a relationship— | even those as simple as unreturned phone calls and snarled traffic. |
C:7.18 | in a manner much more whole than the perception of your split mind. | Even your language and images reflect this truth, this difference |
C:7.21 | the truth is different in one place than it is in another and it | even appears to be in conflict. You cling to known truths, even |
C:7.21 | and it even appears to be in conflict. You cling to known truths, | even though you are aware of their instability in time as well as |
C:7.21 | in time as well as place, and so you live with constant denial that | even what is known to you is not known at all. You thus cling to the |
C:7.23 | Accept a new authority, | even if only for the little while that it will take you to read these |
C:8.6 | seem too much to bear can cause what you call emotional turmoil or | even a nervous breakdown. In these situations either too many |
C:8.7 | memories of these emotions—so many that they could not be counted | even for one day, even by those who claim to have them not. It is not |
C:8.7 | emotions—so many that they could not be counted even for one day, | even by those who claim to have them not. It is not your thoughts to |
C:8.10 | Even those of you whose perceptions remain quite faulty know that | |
C:8.11 | right from wrong, truth from lies, fact from fiction. You do not | even see that what you desire is further separation, and that |
C:8.12 | Even your loftiest desires are fraught with righteousness that is | |
C:8.15 | as you do not let other surface conditions hide the truth from you. | Even if you have not formerly found the truth, you have recognized |
C:8.18 | how it governs your existence and wondering how you could spend | even a moment without awareness of it. |
C:9.1 | as your mind, telling you one thing one day and one thing the next. | Even more so than your mind it seems to lead you astray, forcing you |
C:9.13 | have named and classified is harder to dislodge and bring to light. | Even those feelings you attempt to name and keep cleverly in a box |
C:9.21 | respite from the war that rages beyond it. All of your behavior and | even your fantasies testify that you believe an absence of cold makes |
C:9.26 | they are yourself, and they are your only means to grasp eternity | even within this false reality you have made. |
C:9.31 | you have no needs at all. What you truly are cannot be used, not | even by God. See you not that it is only in illusion that you can use |
C:9.45 | outside yourself and label drugs, alcohol, tobacco, gambling, and | even food as destructive forces. Like the automobile you would blame |
C:9.49 | remain separate, you must use your brothers and sisters in order to | even maintain the illusion of your separation. Would it not simply be |
C:10.1 | linked with anything than you are with your own body? If you are not | even joined with this presence that you call your home, how can you |
C:10.11 | of a headache or the cold of a winter day, and this pretending may | even make you feel a little less pain or a little less cold. But this |
C:10.14 | and ears, as well as that of science, would say you are your body. | Even history would seem to prove this fact as you look back and say |
C:10.14 | Even history would seem to prove this fact as you look back and say | even Jesus died before he could rise again as spirit. |
C:10.21 | the oblivion of the separated self through drugs, alcohol, or | even constant work or shopping, they refuse to return to the |
C:10.27 | see it from behind as you follow it about its day, without, at first | even being aware that this is happening. And you will find that as |
C:11.2 | and your Creator are two separate things, and too seldom remember | even that you are not your own creator. You have made this separation |
C:11.3 | quit before you begin in order to keep from failing one more time. | Even those who feel the power of these words within their hearts and |
C:11.14 | made go, and realize that willingness does not negate free will. Yet | even while you cannot yet quite give up your guardianship of it, it |
C:12.5 | love. You are looking for the safety and security of a loving home, | even if it is one only of philosophy. You look for the soft assurance |
C:12.5 | thinks, “If I could just be sure…” and stops there, for you are not | even sure of what it is you seek assurance. And yet you know what |
C:12.8 | the others follow—and through no effort on your part at all. And | even this one change is not a change at all, for it merely seeks to |
C:12.13 | ceased to be seen here God's image was lost to earth forever? Could | even one have come and gone and left this void forever more unfilled? |
C:12.21 | But just as your ideas do not take on a life of their own | even though they at times seem to, this idea as well had no ability |
C:13.5 | is love. You will want to give it many names at first, and might not | even recognize it as love, for it will come without all the longing |
C:13.10 | is money or the use of any other thing you value. And there is not | even the slightest chance of being made to look foolish by what you |
C:14.11 | and child, of best friends, of a marriage or a partnership, or | even that of a mentor or student. Whatever the relationship's |
C:14.15 | other than fear. You might call this desire pride or security, or | even accept that it is vanity, before you would call it fear. But |
C:14.19 | your own, for as long as it maintains its autonomy, which it must, | even its nearness is not enough. And so what you attempt next is an |
C:14.20 | Some may realize that they are afraid of losing love, and | even speak of it and try to alleviate the fear with official |
C:14.20 | and trust, for their feelings remain strong despite their fear. For | even those who fear no deception must remain afraid of the great |
C:15.4 | make another special could make a difference to many—or possibly | even to anyone. You just want to love your mate and children, your |
C:15.9 | seems the ultimate act of disloyalty to your own kind. To | even think that you could change and be unlike others of your kind, |
C:15.11 | is a way to do so, a way that will not harm any of those you love | even while betraying all they would hold dear. But which would you |
C:16.10 | mind would have you believe it does. For your split mind judges | even love and opposes it on the basis that it uses no judgment! Here |
C:16.10 | no judgment! Here you can see the value that you place on judgment, | even to the ridiculous notion that you can judge judgment itself. You |
C:16.10 | from what your mind would bid it do, and this is why you fear it | even while you yearn for it. This is what the split mind would call |
C:16.11 | Again your memory of creation serves you, | even if it has not served you well. It is this memory that tells you |
C:16.13 | against disaster. And yet you cling to all attempts to do so | even while knowing they are ineffective. |
C:16.14 | vigilance because you know no other way to ensure your safety, and | even if you cannot guarantee your safety against everything all of |
C:16.15 | you love as well as your own self is to be asked to live a life of | even greater risk than that which you live now. |
C:16.17 | thus reinforces the idea of separation, making of it something | even darker than it started out as being. It no longer seems like a |
C:16.20 | Might makes right is a saying that is known to many of you, and | even those who know the saying not believe in the tenets it |
C:17.3 | claim that you are aware of all that exists within the universe, or | even that you fully know your own Self. What is fearful about the |
C:17.5 | so this assumption that what is unknown must be bad cannot be valid, | even by your own standards of evidence. Yet, in your estimation, the |
C:17.5 | the reason that you use is loyal to the world you see. This is why | even Heaven, which you would label good, is not wholly good in your |
C:17.6 | had children, taken mind-altering drugs, or attempted strenuous or | even terrifying physical feats. But all of you without exception have |
C:17.6 | and dreaming, being married, using drugs, or having children; but | even those of you who would listen to what the experts have to say |
C:17.7 | your plans and rail against everything that interferes with them, | even knowing in advance that your greatest efforts at organization |
C:17.16 | is to only give thought to forgiveness. This many of you will give, | even to deciding to forgive despite your better judgment. See you not |
C:17.16 | See you not how little sense this makes, how insincere this | even sounds? |
C:18.1 | stories of many cultures and religions. When you accept this, | even in non-literal terms, as the story of the separation, you accept |
C:18.2 | the globe. I am among those whose hand you hold. All are linked, | even if each one is not holding the hand of every other one. If one |
C:18.5 | for you, as you held mine when I entered the world in physical form. | Even if it is just an illustration, it illustrates that none of us |
C:18.11 | unity individually before their belief system can be changed, | even when what is learned is shared at another level. |
C:18.21 | your feelings of lack of love or fear. What we have as yet talked | even less of, however, is what emotion covers up, and the stillness |
C:19.6 | Your saving grace is that | even a separated self yearns for union and knowledge of its Creator. |
C:19.8 | What my brothers and sisters saw in me allowed me to be who I was, | even while in human form. I tell you truly if you were to see any of |
C:19.11 | witnessed to your arrival just as the scriptures witnessed to mine. | Even while some of my words were distorted or misinterpreted, you can |
C:19.15 | that another's experience will not bring this knowledge to you, not | even my experience. If this were so, all of those who read of my life |
C:19.16 | are ideas quite foreign to you, and truly, while you remain here, | even experiences beyond thoughts and words you will apply word and |
C:19.24 | idea of self-redemption has long been a culprit that has kept union, | even with your own Self, undesirable to you. The concept that in |
C:19.24 | The concept that in oneness there is no need for blame or guilt or | even for redemption is inconceivable to the separate mind. But not to |
C:20.1 | quite different from that which you have felt before. Your heart may | even feel as if it is stretching outward, straining heavenward, near |
C:20.21 | can let all thought go. Within the embrace, you can quit thinking | even of holy things, holy men and women, and even divine beings, even |
C:20.21 | you can quit thinking even of holy things, holy men and women, and | even divine beings, even the one God. Is not the embrace itself holy? |
C:20.21 | even of holy things, holy men and women, and even divine beings, | even the one God. Is not the embrace itself holy? Is not the sunrise |
C:20.35 | You have not before now been able to | even imagine knowing what you do. You hope to have moments of clarity |
C:20.35 | moment, what you have done, what you hope to do in the future. But | even these moments of clarity are fractional. They seldom have any |
C:20.47 | my existence and to me and they are all I need concern myself with.” | Even when you think of expanding your view, you deem that expansion |
C:21.2 | a particular being, you are time-bound. You can realize the eternal | even in your temporary form if you can let go of your particularity. |
C:21.3 | conceptualized. It is an abstract rather than a particular concept, | even while having a seeming structure that your heart can feel. |
C:21.7 | Mind and heart interpret meaning in different ways. You do not | even begin to understand the enormity of this conflict or what it |
C:21.7 | as natural. You see that there are two ways of viewing a situation, | even if you do not label one way of viewing or perceiving being of |
C:22.3 | picture is the relationship between the globe and the axis, | even though you realize the axis allows the globe to spin. |
C:22.6 | rather than upon an idea of division, and they help to show that | even what is divided by intersection remains whole. |
C:22.23 | becomes available, you will have no desire for the personal. | Even so, you will find that what you consider your individuality or |
C:23.24 | Many of you will have begun to experience unlearning opportunities | even while your study of this Course may have led you to turn inward |
C:25.12 | have no lack, to believe in your state of grace. While you believe | even one person is against you, you are not in concert with God. |
C:25.19 | and be tinged with anxiety, anger, confusion, perplexity, | even rage. You will doubt that these are the proper feelings of a |
C:27.11 | just so that you can better understand yourself or your world, or | even so that you can bring Heaven to Earth. Although these are |
C:27.14 | and wholeness. To live in relationship is to live in harmony | even with conflict. It is an understanding that if conflict arises in |
C:27.16 | How often have you, | even with the best of intentions, not known the proper response to |
C:27.16 | the best of intentions, not known the proper response to make? You | even wonder as you pray whether you should pray for specific outcomes |
C:28.3 | think shared beliefs amass, like a congregation around a pulpit, and | even believe in a theory of mass that purports that when a certain |
C:28.4 | its zenith and will no longer be as welcomed or appreciated, so | even were the intent of this Course to bring testimony together in |
C:29.21 | you have faith that your true inheritance is what you truly desire, | even knowing not exactly what that inheritance is? Can you not follow |
C:31.4 | yet each are from the same source, and so they are not different | even while they are not the same. |
C:31.9 | consequential. All over the world people of good faith fight to save | even one life. Each life is irreplaceable and no one argues this |
C:31.30 | seeking to complete yourself. You are seeking wholeness. And you are | even correct in seeking it from your brothers and sisters—just not |
T1:1.7 | by which you could allow your mind to be restful enough for it to | even contemplate union or the new learning required in order to |
T1:1.11 | would be seen as quite difficult no matter how grand its outcome and | even in spite of your recognition, at first in mere fleeting moments, |
T1:2.7 | have learned by using their skills and knowledge in the world for | even greater rewards. These rewards have further emphasized the |
T1:3.3 | it is. The ego-mind sees not anything but what it wants as gifts and | even these it sees not as gifts but as rewards. The ego-mind barters |
T1:3.9 | turning of water into wine. What harm could come from it? And yet | even this you would fear for if you asked for such a miracle and it |
T1:3.19 | at the suggestion that you need proof to shore up your faith, balk, | even while you remain convinced that a failure of such proof would |
T1:3.20 | convinced of your own power. How could this possibly be important? | Even were you to possess such power, surely it is a power that is of |
T1:3.20 | not you for its accomplishment. Better not to mess with such things. | Even the thought of it leads you to ideas of magic and power that is |
T1:3.21 | of Jesus and of the saints and that is surely where they belong. To | even implore them would be heresy. |
T1:3.23 | so much suffering in so many places. Surely you wouldn't want that | even if it could come to be. Indeed this would require the auspices |
T1:3.24 | behind them? You are not worthy. You are not saintly, godlike or | even holy. You might choose incorrectly. You might invoke |
T1:3.25 | have done here is bring your fears to light, fears that you did not | even realize you held so closely or would be so terrified to let go. |
T1:4.5 | an object to you, no effect is possible from the sunset. The sun, | even during the most blazing sunset, has at times remained no more |
T1:4.12 | You may answer that there are many, | even within this Course's definition of gift, the most obvious of |
T1:7.1 | achievement would complete you and take away your feelings of lack. | Even the most successful among you have found that your worldly |
T1:7.2 | Even the most spiritual and godly among you accept suffering. Even | |
T1:7.2 | Even the most spiritual and godly among you accept suffering. | Even those who understand as completely as possible the truth of who |
T1:7.4 | But I have not yet said that the time of the Holy Spirit is ending | even though I have stated that the time of the second coming of |
T1:8.3 | event changes over time and it may take a hundred or a thousand or | even two thousand years for the real truth to be realized. Even |
T1:8.3 | or even two thousand years for the real truth to be realized. | Even though many versions of the truth have been accepted previously, |
T1:8.5 | suffer the separation, you need no longer suffer the separation. | Even though the resurrection returned not life to the form I once |
T1:8.5 | resurrected Christ who exists in all of you, bringing resurrection | even unto your forms. I became the Word incarnate upon my |
T1:8.5 | after me are not as I was but as I Am. Does this not make sense, | even in your human terms of evolution? You are the resurrected and |
T1:8.7 | Now, how could one man's resurrection be the way or | even a way. How can resurrection provide a path or example for you to |
T1:10.6 | to read you do not return to learning to read over and over again | even while you may continue to read for a lifetime. You can continue |
T2:1.5 | place is indeed hallowed ground and an earned respite, a demarcation | even between the old way and the new way of living. But it is not the |
T2:1.6 | This place is not life but neither is it death, for | even death is not an eternal resting place in the sense that you have |
T2:1.6 | not an eternal resting place in the sense that you have imagined it. | Even rest, once truly learned, is simply rest. It is not a resting |
T2:1.8 | you think in terms of place because you think in terms of form. Thus | even I have often used the idea of place as a teaching aid. But you |
T2:1.9 | Even the desires you may have once identified as hoping to develop | |
T2:2.2 | use this phrase. But many recognize that they have a calling | even unto things the world considers mundane. |
T2:3.4 | something real and learning something that is of relevance | even within the daily life you currently move through. Now you must |
T2:4.18 | This is why you do not have to “wait” to hear your calling | even though some of you may feel as if you are in a time of waiting |
T2:5.1 | in nature. Other calls will come as announcements, signs, or | even as seeming demands. All call you to the present where response |
T2:6.1 | in the place we are calling within and your heart knows not of time | even while it adheres to the rules of time you would place upon |
T2:6.8 | exist fully accomplished within the seed that is the Christ in you | even while you continue to grow and change. Physical form and action |
T2:6.9 | You are creating the state of unity as a new reality for your Self | even though it is actually a return to what has always been. You are |
T2:6.10 | in unity in the present, in the here and now, so that you exist— | even within form—as the only Son of God, the Christ, the word made |
T2:7.6 | This source is the ego. | Even now, the ego will take every opportunity that arises to prove to |
T2:9.4 | there has been a loss such as with the loss of a job or loved one or | even of the promise of some service. When you think in such a way you |
T2:9.5 | to possessions, you but continue to feel as if you “have” needs | even long after they have been met. Since I have already stated that |
T2:10.3 | you? You might feel frustrated with your memory at such a time and | even say something such as “my brain just isn't working right today.” |
T2:10.18 | you have intended for it to go, you do not feel gifted or blessed | even when you may have looked back often on situations that did not |
T2:11.1 | created and how you remain. This is the truth of who you are and | even, in your own terms, a fact of your existence. Earlier this was |
T2:11.2 | Even though you no longer want to be other than who you are, and even | |
T2:11.2 | Even though you no longer want to be other than who you are, and | even though you now have a much clearer understanding of who you are, |
T2:11.3 | and strife. It is the battle that in your imaginings has extended | even to the angels. The ego is the dragon that must be slain, the |
T2:11.12 | This is the key to understanding the truth of these statements. For | even while you have chosen separation, this choice did not preclude |
T2:11.15 | is nonsense, or but a form of the insanity that is prevalent still, | even in your thinking. You do not realize that this source of |
T3:1.11 | presented yourself to be could be two completely different selves. | Even within the illusion in which you existed there was a self kept |
T3:1.13 | distinguish the personal self from the ego-self. There is a danger | even now in focusing upon the self of the body, as this self has been |
T3:1.13 | of the body, as this self has been so long bound to the ego-self. | Even with the ego once and finally vanquished, the patterns of the |
T3:2.8 | that is called art is art, and not all that you call self is Self, | even while both may represent the truth as you perceive of it. |
T3:3.5 | could be rightly placed. Your depression was blamed on the past. | Even your successes were often claimed to be at the expense of |
T3:4.1 | behind your addictions or to go on a diet or a fast. It will not | even tell you to be kind. It does not tell you to be responsible and |
T3:5.3 | by a loss of self due to illness or addiction, depression, or | even physical exhaustion. All these things you have brought to |
T3:5.6 | time in which I lived it, and has an appropriateness that continues | even now. I walked the earth in order to reveal a God of love. The |
T3:5.6 | suffered. The answer was that God's love was so mighty that he would | even allow the death of his only son to redeem the world. |
T3:6.4 | old as time itself and the cause of bitterness being able to exist, | even within your hearts. |
T3:6.5 | you have always been convinced existed in the hearts of some, but | even being that it is just another word, it is one chosen to |
T3:7.4 | You are who you are and remain endlessly who you are, | even here within the human experience. This is the idea that is |
T3:7.6 | You took yourself into these many rooms and in some you were | even capable of representing your true Self. This representation of |
T3:7.9 | Now you have seized upon | even this idea and called it not treasure but theory and related it |
T3:8.8 | one change could bring about all the changes you would imagine that | even an army of angels could not bring about. While such a thought |
T3:8.13 | Has not a part of you always known that suffering does not have to be | even while you have accepted that it is? Let us now put an end to |
T3:10.14 | your memory. You will soon forget the thought system of the ego-self | even though, when encountering those who still use that thought |
T3:11.15 | You will, in truth, for quite some time, be striving to remain aware | even that you have changed dwelling places. There is a reason for |
T3:12.7 | to you here is something completely new, something you have not | even dreamed of. This state you have not even dared to dream of is a |
T3:12.7 | new, something you have not even dreamed of. This state you have not | even dared to dream of is a state in which only God's laws of love |
T3:12.7 | dared to dream of is a state in which only God's laws of love exist | even within the realm of physicality. What this means is that all |
T3:13.10 | To act as if this is the truth is what you are called to do. You may | even begin by something as simple as choosing one thing a day that |
T3:14.5 | who will be visited by great change are but those who desire it. Yet | even those who desire great change will find these great changes will |
T3:14.13 | assured that what you are called to is a life so new that you cannot | even imagine it. Imagine not the past and make for yourself no cause |
T3:15.3 | expectations of continued special treatment within the relationship. | Even, and sometimes especially, what is considered poor behavior can |
T3:15.5 | you often act “as if” you believe a new beginning is possible, | even while awaiting the lapse that will surely prove to you that the |
T3:15.5 | loved one of an alcoholic can similarly approach each day with faith | even while suspiciously looking for signs that faith is unwarranted. |
T3:16.4 | in ways that you would like and while its limitations may seem | even more frustrating than before, I am also confident in saying that |
T3:16.17 | House of Truth is love eternal and it has always encompassed you, | even unto encompassing the house of illusion that you made to obscure |
T3:18.9 | of the truth. Thus your eyes will learn to observe only the truth, | even unto seeing what before but seemed unobservable. |
T3:19.12 | led to the old reality, a reality that will still exist for some | even after it changes completely for you. |
T3:19.13 | This will seem | even more inconsistent with a benevolent universe than it once did |
T3:19.14 | this disparity would be divisive and extremely uncomfortable and | even rage-producing for those still living in illusion. But it will |
T3:20.6 | is given despite the “fact” that it is unwarranted. Yet | even while you offer encouragement, you worry about giving “false” |
T3:20.7 | seemingly already written, and think that is more realistic and | even helpful than living by the laws of truth. |
T3:20.8 | begin to see that in so doing you but reinforce it? What you might | even call the “fact” of it? Can you not instead ask yourself what |
T3:20.9 | While you need not act in ways inconsistent with compassion or | even verbalize your new beliefs, you are being told directly here |
T3:20.12 | You can no longer return to the house of illusion, not | even to cause explosions within it. You have stepped out of this |
T3:20.18 | Thus you are released from a burden never meant to rest upon you | even if it is one you might have freely chosen. Your task is to |
T3:21.11 | Even while this experience is experience of an ego-self, it is still | |
T3:21.12 | And | even more so than these things, although this hasn't as often been |
T3:21.12 | few things, in addition to your name and family of origin ever are. | Even the most materialistic among you rarely count what you have |
T3:21.13 | in favor of equal rights or environmental protection. And you may, | even while recognizing, as you surely do, that these beliefs are |
T3:21.17 | Now however, you are being called to accept your true identity | even while you retain the form of your personal self. As your true |
T3:21.17 | that of a self who exists in separation, this would seem impossible. | Even while your belief system has changed and you believe that you |
T3:21.20 | answer lies in realizing that your former identity does not matter, | even while realizing that it will serve your new purpose. Further, |
T3:21.20 | realizing that it will serve your new purpose. Further, there are | even two aspects to this contradictory seeming answer. One is that |
T3:22.1 | you may be happy to learn that you are not called to evangelize or | even to a leadership role, you know that you are called to something |
T3:22.2 | It would not be available, and it would not be known to you. So | even while I have said that no one is called to leadership and while |
T3:22.9 | self, and your attention has begun to wander from this topic | even as it is being concluded. |
T4:1.11 | at the same time, it must be seen that your choice matters in time, | even if all will make the same choice eventually. |
T4:1.12 | As was said within “A Treatise on the Personal Self,” | even the house of illusion is held within the embrace of love, of |
T4:1.13 | not; that this time might just be different than any other time. | Even as you begin to tentatively let this excitement grow, your |
T4:1.14 | be your science or technology, your advanced mental abilities, or | even your leisure time that has opened up this opportunity. The only |
T4:1.20 | and in the contrast learning did occur and has continued to occur | even unto this time. You have learned much of the nature of the truth |
T4:1.26 | less than the truth and will soon begin looking earnestly for it. | Even the ego-self will be perceived clearly by these, and they will |
T4:2.11 | one achieves but opens 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 |
T4:2.12 | follow in time will do so more easily, with less effort, and with | even greater success. They may consider themselves “better than” for |
T4:2.13 | Thus, you must examine your intention | even now and remove from it all ideas that were of the old way. You |
T4:2.16 | any others without knowing that the truth of who they are is present | even though it might seem not to be? This is the power of the |
T4:2.22 | in some concept of unity or oneness, but you have also denied | even the possibility of experiencing your own direct relationship |
T4:2.23 | to realize the relationship that exists with the unseen and | even the seen. You have moved through life believing you have |
T4:3.6 | relationships fearful as well. Trust became something to be earned. | Even the most loving parent, like unto your most loving image of God, |
T4:3.13 | change. That the nature of matter is one of change. That the nature, | even of form, once returned to its natural state of love, is one of |
T4:4.2 | taken to extremes. Inherent within the extreme is the balance. | Even in the biblical description of creation was a day of rest spoken |
T4:4.3 | this balance between old generations and new seems necessary and | even crucial. One generation must pass to make room for the new. |
T4:4.4 | Even before the planet reached the state of over-population, this | |
T4:4.5 | God.” In the time in which I lived, the idea of inheritance was an | even stronger idea, an idea with much more power than in current |
T4:4.12 | Christ-consciousness. I am calling you to everlasting consciousness | even while you still abide in form. To be cognizant or aware of |
T4:5.11 | choice now. This is not a choice automatic to you in human form or | even upon the death of your human form. When you die, you do not die |
T4:7.3 | come ever closer to the truth by means of science, technology, and | even art and literature. Those who allow themselves to experience |
T4:7.6 | body. Sustaining this harmony will keep your body in perfect health, | even while the manner of this perfection of your health will remain |
T4:7.8 | continue to learn through the full variety of the human experience | even after it is unnecessary. Why? Because it is a choice, pure and |
T4:8.9 | be flat—God saw and knew to be consistent with the nature of man, | even while the fear and struggle that this impatience generated was |
T4:8.12 | To take away your freedom in order to protect you, | even from yourself, would not have been an act of love. To take away |
T4:8.16 | and your purpose here. To learn everything there is to know about | even one subject, and to call that learning complete, is an error. If |
T4:8.16 | is an error. If you rethink this definition you will see that | even in regards to the learning of one subject it is not the truth. |
T4:9.1 | Learning is not meant to last. This is why | even this coursework comes to an end. It comes to an end here and now |
T4:12.16 | Has not this pushing against limits been called progress? Have not | even the most devastating misuses of power attained through this |
T4:12.20 | singular consciousness, to let doubt of yourself take hold of you. | Even though you are abiding now in the state of Christ-consciousness, |
T4:12.27 | design, a pattern that was part of the pattern of your thoughts, | even after the ego came to rule your thought system. Without this |
T4:12.31 | help you to adapt to the truth of a sharing you will have received | even before it is communicated through the means to which you are |
D:1.8 | final surrender. The surrender of the control of the personal self. | Even with the ego gone, the personal self can continue to move about |
D:1.13 | as you open your heart and allow your true identity to be what is, | even within your form. You are in grace and union with the Source and |
D:1.20 | Is a piece of music not received by you | even when you may be one of thousands or millions who hear it? Does |
D:1.21 | an incredible feat by allowing and accepting the state of unity | even though you could not learn how to do so. This has been the |
D:2.6 | inability to claim the new identity could at times be acceptable and | even appropriate. In regard to the learning that you have now |
D:2.10 | It is proper now to deny the modes of learning, | even when they seemed to work for you in the past. That they seemed |
D:2.19 | so entrenched that no new learning is seen as possible or desirable | even though the systems and patterns are known not to work. In truth, |
D:3.6 | does not mean, however, that you accept goodness and deny evil or | even that you accept love and deny fear. How can this be? |
D:3.19 | of elevated form is newly birthed, just as I was once newly birthed | even though my Self was eternal. One of the major things we will be |
D:3.21 | simply a shared quality of oneness. It is not in need of learning or | even understanding. It is. Awareness of what is, is a quality of |
D:4.8 | quickly replace the life of the inmate if you will but let it do so. | Even those who actually are incarcerated in the prison system you |
D:4.16 | pattern came most of your false ideas, ideas that made it difficult | even for the divinely inspired thought systems to provide the |
D:4.26 | and so long barred that they may as well be prison walls. You may | even be a prisoner in truth, and wonder how, save a grand escape, you |
D:6.6 | seen it, for everything that exists in form is of the same Source. | Even those things you have made you have not made from nothing. There |
D:6.6 | this cannot be repeated enough, creation begins with what is. And so | even the creations you have made are only distinct from what was |
D:6.7 | to have rigidity and a particular meaning. But they still are real, | even if they are not as they appear to be to the body's eyes. |
D:6.9 | it would have been impossible to repopulate the earth afterwards | even if it had taken place as described. |
D:6.13 | them for the certainty they have given you in an uncertain world. | Even if it has been a false certainty, it served a great purpose in |
D:6.14 | is open to the discovery of something new and “unbelievable” and | even “scientifically impossible,” as well as to the creation of |
D:6.19 | a person who has exhibited unhealthy habits gets sick, you think, | even if you would not say, that they “did it to themselves” or that |
D:7.16 | Observation takes place in time. | Even while you have been called to observe what is, what you are |
D:7.22 | has left so many unfulfilled, as environmental concerns mount, | even the perceived survival needs are leading you toward new answers |
D:7.24 | over his environment will come to an abrupt and painful end. Some | even fear an evolutionary setback, and see any threat against |
D:9.4 | your life without reaching the place of fulfillment you have sought. | Even now, when you have learned all that you are in need of learning, |
D:9.4 | you have learned all that you are in need of learning, the pattern, | even of your wholeheartedness, remains one of thought. This pattern |
D:10.5 | Self of form, the means through which the Self of union is known | even in the realm of separation, and thus what draws others from |
D:11.2 | You might | even consider this Dialogue the written notes of my thoughts. In this |
D:11.2 | be insane. Are you willing any longer to see me as a lecturer, or | even as a great teacher? Am I but a giver of information from whom |
D:11.12 | to the question your thoughts cannot quite comprehend well enough to | even articulate, much less to answer. |
D:12.9 | still a useful distinction, as “thinking” is seen as what you “do.” | Even in your dictionary definition, being “thoughtful” is seen as a |
D:12.10 | to be the more meditative version of your “thinking,” often | even resulting in a conclusion to your thinking, a summary of the |
D:12.18 | self was involved, somehow, in this coming to know of the truth, | even if this coming to know of the truth wasn't quite “of” the “you” |
D:13.5 | you did not know before in form, that it is important, monumental | even; but you will be unable to “see” this knowing, to envision it in |
D:13.8 | to truly understand that you are not alone and separate, and that | even the coming to know of the state of unity is a shared coming to |
D:14.14 | state of unity is what is real, yet you have known this reality not, | even though it is the more subtle memory of this state that is behind |
D:15.10 | to do here? With our continuing work of creation? Would this not | even be consistent with spirit existing in every living form from the |
D:16.9 | You are alive. You have form. You think and feel. You have | even been told that you would cease to be without the existence of |
D:16.12 | as if you still have a long way to go. You have often thought that | even though you may be done with learning, you don't feel quite |
D:16.12 | be done with learning, you don't feel quite complete, or possibly | even feel as if learning has not quite been accomplished in you. This |
D:16.18 | you thinking that you are “acting” as if you have changed, while | even within your new actions you see archetypes of the previously |
D:17.14 | you to the questions that were asked of you earlier, for they are | even more pertinent now. Do you think desire will still be with you |
D:17.21 | have traveled so far to reach. You are here and desire fills you, | even while you know the glory of having arrived. |
D:17.23 | Only in myth is this response to a specific question, but | even the specific questions of myth, when seen truly, were questions |
D:Day2.8 | of this feeling arises from the erroneous idea that you can fail, | even here. These are the temptations that confront those who have |
D:Day2.11 | Now is the time for acceptance, | even of these actions that you would rather not accept. They |
D:Day2.14 | We speak not of forgiveness or | even atonement here, for these have been thoroughly discussed |
D:Day3.2 | and you are most willing to have new insight, new information, and | even new discoveries, enter through your mind—because this is known |
D:Day3.4 | love. Most of you approached learning through the heart with | even more openness than you did new ideas about love, not realizing |
D:Day3.6 | There is one area that is greeted with | even more anger and more resistance in regard to learning of all |
D:Day3.7 | more peace, your mind that will accept comfort of a certain type, | even extending to a new comfortableness of being. You believe having |
D:Day3.8 | for your life will assist you in feeling more loved and possibly | even assist you in finding some one to love. You may believe that |
D:Day3.12 | thoroughly learned during the time of learning that letting it go, | even now, still torments you with worry and anger. It is the idea of |
D:Day3.13 | and not your gifts. Everything coming with a price. Abundance comes, | even to those gifted, only through the exploitation of gifts. |
D:Day3.13 | gifted, only through the exploitation of gifts. Abundance remains, | even to those born with it, only through the exploitation of others. |
D:Day3.14 | To think in such terms, and then to see such thoughts as | even capable of having spiritual value, is something you think of as |
D:Day3.14 | of as insane. There seems no remedy, and so you would rather not | even attempt an understanding of how things might be different. As |
D:Day3.14 | these ideas are still with most of you to one degree or another. | Even though you know these are false ideas, and in that knowing may |
D:Day3.14 | Even though you know these are false ideas, and in that knowing may | even say to yourself as you read them that you no longer think in |
D:Day3.17 | or abundance as being “given” when it is hard work to attain. Not | even when it seems to come from some event of luck or fate. We are |
D:Day3.21 | a position in which you feel you need to ask for money from others, | even from a bank, is seen as a dire situation indeed. This asking |
D:Day3.21 | indeed. This asking will likely be an ordeal of some consequence. | Even those who are seen by others as constant “takers,” unafraid to |
D:Day3.22 | of you truly think that money would not solve most of your problems. | Even those of you on this spiritual path think money is among the |
D:Day3.23 | of your life because it was the reality of the learning life. | Even if you are one of those others consider lucky, one of those who |
D:Day3.24 | not of your survival. It is the pattern of the ego's survival, and | even though the ego is no longer with you, the pattern remains |
D:Day3.27 | accept a response to what you desire. Remember that we are headed | even beyond desire, and know that desire must first be met before you |
D:Day3.29 | abundance. You think you could more easily find love than money, | even those of you who have felt loveless for too long to contemplate. |
D:Day3.31 | or spend it only with trepidation and an eye upon the bank account? | Even those of you who would feel prepared to let it bring you joy |
D:Day3.45 | win, in this insane argument about abundance, is an acknowledgment, | even from God, that you do not have what you need, that you are |
D:Day3.46 | Even those of you who would claim to know this anger not, who would | |
D:Day3.46 | silence for God's provision, are still waiting for provision. | Even those of you who have asked God for abundance, and opened |
D:Day3.46 | have asked God for abundance, and opened yourselves to receive it, | even those of you who have seen some improvement or evidence you |
D:Day3.50 | period and it, too, is not without value. You may have many good and | even inspired ideas within this time. You may feel as if you are on |
D:Day3.57 | Do you see the difference, | even here, in belief and acceptance? Can you begin to see acceptance |
D:Day4.8 | Even after the onset of language, children continue to learn without | |
D:Day4.25 | how many of the truths I expressed were still available to you, | even within your religious institutions. You feel, perhaps, that you |
D:Day4.29 | is not a tool that can be purchased through your right-actions or | even your longing and desire. For this access is not a tool but a |
D:Day4.31 | your breathing and how your concentration upon it affects it. | Even learned skills react to this type of concentration. A pianist |
D:Day4.34 | new. You realize that this is the purpose of our time together here | even though you have not put this purpose into words and put these |
D:Day5.1 | no longer needed once a door has been unlocked and passed through. | Even though it will not be permanently needed, however, this point of |
D:Day5.9 | as it is helpful in some instances to associate love with your heart | even though we have identified heart as the center of the Self rather |
D:Day5.9 | be helpful to have identified this chosen access point for unity | even while remembering it is not of the body alone. |
D:Day6.2 | too much anxiety and exclude too many, this is not the only, or | even the major reason for this chosen method. |
D:Day6.7 | reactions might validate the artist's instinct and encourage | even more boldness. Negative reactions might cause the artist to |
D:Day6.8 | developed, and “good enough” or not, completion is necessary. It may | even be a commitment simply to practice, with the artist feeling no |
D:Day6.13 | acknowledge the difficulty some of you will seem to be experiencing | even while pointing out to you that life is life. |
D:Day6.23 | is in a position to be able to begin to perform with any certainty. | Even learning is accelerated by hands-on activities, by doing what |
D:Day7.14 | come of this. However, this is not an “if this, then that” situation | even if it may seem so. Is the process of breathing an “if this, then |
D:Day8.1 | subconsciously, the idea of removing yourself from normal life. | Even the conditions of the time of acceptance may not have cheered |
D:Day8.4 | is very unlikely, in truth, to stem from the details of your life. | Even so, you are not called to accept what you do not like, but to |
D:Day8.7 | no feelings of dislike, and in this confusion have been “trying” and | even “struggling” to accept what you do not like in order to be more |
D:Day8.14 | Even this type of seeing will have remnants of righteousness attached | |
D:Day8.14 | of it. It may still call up feelings of shame or irritation. It may | even still intrigue you if you are interested enough in the subject |
D:Day8.15 | crop up in your own speech, couched as something else, something | even worse than gossip. You will sigh, and reference something |
D:Day8.16 | you do not like gossip, or certain that you do not like your job, or | even certain that you do not like peas, is an inaccurate use of the |
D:Day8.16 | associated with the “term” of certainty will cause you to be | even less certain than you were before. You will be less certain in |
D:Day8.19 | of that which you do not like in yourself and others and | even to, at times, the false sense of certainty about your |
D:Day9.7 | freedom of feeling. And yet if the truth be admitted, you know that | even this is not quite true. You know that you censor your own |
D:Day9.12 | of the time of learning. It became an image in your mind, and maybe | even within your heart, through the process of learning. It arose |
D:Day9.21 | To represent an image is to become an image. To become an image, | even an idealized image, is to still become a false idol or even what |
D:Day9.21 | image, even an idealized image, is to still become a false idol or | even what is referred to in more common usage as a spiritual leader |
D:Day9.24 | upon your ability to accept that you are your ideal self. Yes, | even right now, with all your seeming imperfections. |
D:Day9.27 | Nothing, not | even the ego, has been able to keep you from expressing the beauty |
D:Day10.10 | type of intuition seems to come more as thought than as feeling, but | even so, it is your feelings about such thoughts that will often |
D:Day10.27 | be likely to think of them much differently than they were in life, | even while you are able to imagine them being peaceful and free of |
D:Day10.28 | would not have liked it? And do you not, in all honesty, think that | even in whatever form or lack of form they now occupy, they do not |
D:Day10.28 | whatever form or lack of form they now occupy, they do not like it, | even now, even beyond the grave? |
D:Day10.28 | form or lack of form they now occupy, they do not like it, even now, | even beyond the grave? |
D:Day10.29 | at times to take unpopular stands against popular leaders? Do not | even your ideas of saints and angels include concepts of their |

D:Day10.38 | As you can see, it is difficult for me, even now, | even in this final address to you as the man Jesus, to speak of |
D:Day11.2 | world of spirit, the world of separation with the world of union, | even while it does not unite the world of illusion with the world of |
D:Day15.13 | generated by the joining of spacious Selves? Do you fear your power | even though you have been told it cannot be misused? Do you feel |
D:Day18.1 | to facilitate the creation of change through a specific function | even while moving into the new as they do so. Each way is as needed |
D:Day19.12 | The fear of losing the self is still the primary fear, | even among those who have never found the self. They fear losing the |
D:Day20.1 | we begin preparation for your transition to level ground. We depart | even farther here from the guidance you have relied upon so that you |
D:Day20.2 | with the unknown and ceased to fear it. You are, perhaps, | even eager now, to move beyond the known to the unknown. You are |
D:Day21.1 | outside source. There are no outside sources of wisdom, guidance, or | even information. |
D:Day21.2 | This was true | even within the pattern of learning you have been so familiar with, |
D:Day21.2 | been so familiar with, for in order to learn, the source of wisdom, | even though you may have seen it as existing outside of yourself, had |
D:Day21.3 | The giver could make available but could not really teach, guide, or | even make information coherent without the action of the receiver. |
D:Day21.6 | learning but made it seem as if some had more and others less. But | even the pattern of learning had as its outcome the sameness of |
D:Day21.7 | source into the self where it is learned and then regurgitated or | even applied, has given way to an interaction that begins within and |
D:Day23.4 | The clouds of illusion, | even those that have gently surrounded our time together on the |
D:Day24.5 | words, a necessity for each step in the accomplishment of wholeness, | even while wholeness has always existed as potential. Do not forget, |
D:Day24.7 | form in order to begin again. Thus spirit is always becoming, | even when it must die to begin again. |
D:Day25.3 | an over-zealous ego-mind. Your ideas in this time may sound crazy, | even to your own ears. Let them come. Your feelings may be confused |

Tx:24.5 | All that is | ever cherished as a hidden belief, to be defended though |
Tx:24.29 | you will oppose His Will forever. Nor is it possible the two can | ever be the same while specialness stands like a flaming sword of |

Tx:25.12 | does despair result. And there is no exception, nor will there | ever be. The only value that the past can hold is that you learn it |
Tx:25.13 | your choice, while you would seek for hope where none is | ever found. |

W1:135.19 | did not let you see His loving blessing shine in every step you | ever took. While you made plans for death, He led you gently to |

W1:195.10 | the way to Him and shorten our learning time by more than you could | ever dream of. Gratitude goes hand in hand with love, and where one |

W2:231.1 | thing I seek or ever sought. For there is nothing else that I could | ever really want to find. Let me remember You. What else could I |

Tx:1.31 | You were given everything when you were created, just as | everyone was. When you have been restored to the recognition of your |
Tx:1.88 | Equality does not imply homogeneity now. When | everyone recognizes that he has everything, individual contributions |
Tx:1.88 | have His total love, and all His gifts are freely given to | everyone alike. “Except ye become as little children” means that, |
Tx:1.105 | one body to another, because the real vision is still so dim. | Everyone can use his body best by enlarging man's perception so he |
Tx:2.35 | to clarify after the value of the goal itself is firmly established. | Everyone defends his own treasure. You do not have to tell him to do |
Tx:2.36 | defense which cannot be used destructively. That is because, while | everyone must eventually join it, it is not a device which was |
Tx:2.47 | The acceptance of the Atonement by | everyone is only a matter of time. In fact, both time and matter |
Tx:2.48 | Pain thresholds can be high, but they are not limitless. Eventually | everyone begins to recognize, however dimly, that there must be a |
Tx:2.88 | Everyone experiences fear, and no one enjoys it. Yet it would take | |
Tx:2.95 | have been afraid of God, of me, of yourselves, and of practically | everyone you know at one time or another. This is because you have |
Tx:3.26 | not experienced some light and some [of everything]. This makes | everyone really unable to deny truth totally, even if he generally |
Tx:3.61 | there will be no more. This is symbolic only in the sense that | everyone is much better off without judgment. When the Bible says, |
Tx:3.70 | Peace is a natural heritage of the Soul. | Everyone is free to refuse to accept his inheritance, but he is |
Tx:3.70 | not free to establish what his inheritance is. The problem which | everyone must decide is the fundamental question of authorship. All |
Tx:4.25 | to enormous variation because of its instability, and one for | everyone he perceives, which is equally variable. Their interaction |
Tx:5.28 | Our task is the joyous one of waking it to the Call for God. | Everyone will answer the Call of the Holy Spirit, or the Sonship |
Tx:6.2 | since an extreme example is a particularly helpful learning device. | Everyone teaches and teaches all the time. This is a responsibility |
Tx:6.47 | know. The Holy Spirit does not speak first, but He always answers. | Everyone has called upon Him for help at one time or another and in |
Tx:6.47 | Spirit answers truly, He answers for all time, which means that | everyone has the answer now. |
Tx:6.71 | it therefore perceive this as an attack on them. This is because | everyone identifies himself with his thought system, and every |
Tx:7.22 | The ego does not want to teach | everyone all it has learned, because that would defeat its purpose. |
Tx:7.41 | Healing is the one ability which | everyone can develop and must develop if he is to be healed. |
Tx:7.42 | tries to weaken. Healing perceives nothing in the healer that | everyone else does not share with him. Magic always sees |
Tx:7.53 | is the true communion of the Spirit, Who sees the altar of God in | everyone and, by bringing it to your appreciation, calls upon you |
Tx:7.80 | see it everywhere, because it is everywhere. See His abundance in | everyone, and you will know that you are in Him with them. They are |
Tx:7.95 | of every Son of God are yours since every creation belongs to | everyone, being created for the Sonship as a whole. |
Tx:7.107 | guide you truly, because your joy is His. This is His Will for | everyone, because He speaks for the Kingdom of God which is joy. |
Tx:7.110 | lesson in his heart has healed the Sonship and given thanks to God. | Everyone who learns this lesson has become the perfect teacher, |
Tx:8.15 | you acknowledge this, you bring the acknowledgment automatically to | everyone, because you have acknowledged everyone. By your |
Tx:8.15 | automatically to everyone, because you have acknowledged | everyone. By your recognition you awaken theirs, and through |
Tx:8.20 | you choose, is know thyself. There is nothing else to learn. | Everyone is looking for himself and for the power and glory he thinks |
Tx:8.99 | Ultimately | everyone must remember the Will of God, because ultimately everyone |
Tx:8.99 | Ultimately everyone must remember the Will of God, because ultimately | everyone must recognize himself. This recognition is the |
Tx:8.107 | Everyone who has ever tried to use prayer to request something has | |
Tx:8.118 | you can give to Him only where you see Him. If you see Him in | everyone, consider how much you will be asking of Him and how much |
Tx:8.118 | His answer is all you can ask for and want. Say, then, to | everyone, |
Tx:9.81 | receive as much as you accept. You could accept peace now for | everyone you meet and offer them perfect freedom from all illusions |
Tx:10.58 | for Christ or for the ego, depending on what you perceive in him. | Everyone convinces you of what you want to perceive and of the |
Tx:10.62 | and your life. You live in me because you live in God. And | everyone lives in you, as you live in everyone. Can you, then, |
Tx:10.62 | you live in God. And everyone lives in you, as you live in | everyone. Can you, then, perceive unworthiness in a brother and not |
Tx:10.65 | the crucifixion of God's Son is the work of the redemption, in which | everyone has a part of equal value. God does not judge His blameless |
Tx:11.29 | the ego is to attack yourself and make yourself poor. That is why | everyone who identifies with the ego feels deprived. What he |
Tx:11.30 | is merely your attempt to maintain your ego identification, for | everyone believes that identification is salvation. Yet consider what |
Tx:11.36 | its central teaching. It never puts it this way; on the contrary, | everyone who believes that the ego is salvation is intensely engaged |
Tx:11.58 | light of the Holy Spirit's blessing. For the Holy Spirit will lead | everyone home to his Father, where Christ waits as his Self. |
Tx:11.59 | and becomes generalized. Gradually you learn to apply it to | everyone and everything, for its applicability is universal. When |
Tx:11.61 | will radiate from your acceptance of it for yourself to | everyone the Holy Spirit sends you for your blessing. In every Child |
Tx:11.62 | Everyone in the world must play his part in the redemption of the | |
Tx:11.93 | He has always sought his guiltlessness, and he has found it. For | everyone is seeking to escape from the prison he has made, and the |
Tx:12.37 | you see your own hatred as your brother, you are not seeing him. | Everyone draws nigh unto what he loves and recoils from what he |
Tx:12.46 | because it is delusional. When you have learned to look upon | everyone with no reference at all to the past, either his or yours |
Tx:12.47 | cloud of guilt has risen to obscure Him, and He stands revealed in | everyone you meet because you see Him through Himself. To be born |
Tx:12.54 | witnesses, for having given light to them, they will return it. | Everyone you see in light brings your light closer to your own |
Tx:13.5 | is the same, perceived in the same light and therefore one. | Everyone seen without the past thus brings you nearer to the end of |
Tx:13.7 | and your Father's gift you cannot lose. Offer Christ's gift to | everyone and everywhere, for miracles offered the Son of God through |
Tx:13.16 | Project it not, for while you do, it cannot be undone. With | everyone whom you release from guilt, great is the joy in Heaven, |
Tx:13.24 | the past and give your mind in peace over to the Atonement. When | everyone is welcome to you as you would have yourself be welcome to |
Tx:13.46 | and there is no possibility that the plan the Holy Spirit offers to | everyone for the salvation of everyone will not be perfectly |
Tx:13.46 | the plan the Holy Spirit offers to everyone for the salvation of | everyone will not be perfectly accomplished. You will be released, |
Tx:13.69 | to your happiness that comes from choosing to be free of guilt. | Everyone you offer healing to returns it. Everyone you attack keeps |
Tx:13.69 | to be free of guilt. Everyone you offer healing to returns it. | Everyone you attack keeps it and cherishes it by holding it against |
Tx:13.71 | invulnerability. Therefore, make your invulnerability manifest to | everyone, and teach him that whatever he may try to do to you, your |
Tx:13.80 | for you? Learn of His wisdom and His love and teach His answer to | everyone who struggles in the dark. For you decide for them and for |
Tx:13.81 | reconsider. Trust Him to answer quickly, surely, and with love for | everyone who will be touched in any way by the decision. And everyone |
Tx:13.81 | for everyone who will be touched in any way by the decision. And | everyone will be. Would you take unto yourself the sole |
Tx:13.81 | the sole responsibility for deciding what can bring only good to | everyone? Would you know this? |
Tx:14.11 | which seeks but to restore what is the right of God's creation. From | everyone whom you accord release from guilt, you will inevitably |
Tx:14.11 | confidence in your safe inclusion in what is for all in | everyone you bring within its safety and its perfect peace. |
Tx:14.12 | Peace, then, be unto | everyone who becomes a teacher of peace. For peace is the |
Tx:14.12 | purity from which no one is excluded. Within its holy circle is | everyone whom God created as His Son. Joy is its unifying attribute, |
Tx:14.12 | no one left outside to suffer guilt alone. The power of God draws | everyone to its safe embrace of love and union. Stand quietly within |
Tx:14.13 | Teach peace with me and stand with me on holy ground. Remember for | everyone your Father's power that He has given him. Believe not that |
Tx:14.43 | the message which shines forth from what the mirror holds out for | everyone to see no one can fail to understand. It is the message |
Tx:14.44 | change. Its meaning to those who look upon it is not obscure, for | everyone perceives it as the same. All bring their different |
Tx:14.46 | from time to holiness as surely as the reflection of holiness calls | everyone to lay all guilt aside. Reflect the peace of Heaven here |
Tx:14.46 | and bring this world to Heaven. For the reflection of truth draws | everyone to truth, and as they enter into it, they leave all |
Tx:14.55 | your thoughts and give only the answer with which He answers you. | Everyone seeks for love as you do and knows it not unless he joins |
Tx:14.63 | there are dark lessons in your minds which hurt and hinder you and | everyone around you. The absence of perfect peace means but one |
Tx:14.74 | your perfection ever in His sight, He gives the gift of peace to | everyone who perceives the need for peace and who would have it. Make |
Tx:15.14 | to reestablish perfect sanity, perfect peace, and perfect love for | everyone, for God, and for yourself. As long as it takes to |
Tx:15.29 | For God would give Himself through you. He reaches from you to | everyone and beyond everyone to His Son's creations, but without |
Tx:15.29 | Himself through you. He reaches from you to everyone and beyond | everyone to His Son's creations, but without leaving you. Far beyond |
Tx:15.34 | Call forth in | everyone only the remembrance of God and of the Heaven that is in |
Tx:15.52 | Everyone on earth has formed special relationships, and although this | |
Tx:15.65 | fully returned. Being complete, it asks nothing. Being wholly pure, | everyone joined in it has everything. This is not the basis for |
Tx:15.81 | denied. You are forever in a relationship so holy that it calls to | everyone to escape from loneliness and join you in your love. And |
Tx:15.81 | from loneliness and join you in your love. And where you are must | everyone seek and find you there. |
Tx:15.87 | has no purpose you would share with it. For the ego would limit | everyone to a body for its purposes, and while you think it has a |
Tx:15.93 | when only this I will to offer you? And to see me is to see me in | everyone and offer everyone the gift you offer me. I am as incapable |
Tx:15.93 | to offer you? And to see me is to see me in everyone and offer | everyone the gift you offer me. I am as incapable of receiving |
Tx:15.94 | of Christ is the time appointed for the gift of freedom, offered to | everyone. And by your acceptance of it, you have offered it to |
Tx:15.94 | everyone. And by your acceptance of it, you have offered it to | everyone. It is in your power to make this season holy, for it is |
Tx:15.99 | You think that | everyone outside yourself demands your sacrifice, but you do not |
Tx:15.103 | in healing, and let us celebrate our release together by releasing | everyone with us. Leave nothing behind, for release is total, and |
Tx:16.10 | difficult because you cannot see how it can be extended to include | everyone. And you have learned that it must include everyone to |
Tx:16.10 | to include everyone. And you have learned that it must include | everyone to be holy. Concern yourselves not with the extension of |
Tx:16.19 | Reality is safe and sure and wholly kind to | everyone and everything. There is no greater love than to accept this |
Tx:16.28 | and for what He is Who created you as you are. Sooner or later must | everyone bridge the gap which he imagines exists between his selves. |
Tx:16.47 | To | everyone Heaven is completion. There can be no disagreement on this, |
Tx:16.80 | all illusions are forgiven. From there the miracle extends to bless | everyone and to resolve all problems, be they perceived as great or |
Tx:17.62 | sees the situation as a whole. The goal establishes the fact that | everyone involved in it will play his part in its accomplishment. |
Tx:17.71 | light of truth shines from the center of the situation and touches | everyone to whom the situation's purpose calls. It calls to |
Tx:18.20 | kept it a thing apart, its holiness will become an offering to | everyone. |
Tx:18.21 | Your special relationship will be a means for undoing guilt in | everyone blessed through your holy relationship. It will be a happy |
Tx:18.21 | not that He has forgotten you to whom He gave the gift. He uses | everyone who calls on Him as means for the salvation of everyone. And |
Tx:18.21 | He uses everyone who calls on Him as means for the salvation of | everyone. And He will waken everyone through you who offered your |
Tx:18.21 | on Him as means for the salvation of everyone. And He will waken | everyone through you who offered your relationship to Him. If you but |
Tx:18.29 | the darkness to light, and this willingness has given strength to | everyone who would remain in darkness. Those who would see will |
Tx:18.58 | only by Him. What limit can there be on you whom He encompasses? | Everyone has experienced what he would call a sense of being |
Tx:18.68 | Here is the ultimate release which | everyone will one day find in his own way, at his own time. We do not |
Tx:18.79 | of refuge, prepared by love for them where once a desert was. And | everyone you welcome will bring love with him from Heaven for you. |
Tx:18.79 | its beneficence, your little garden will expand and reach out to | everyone who thirsts for living water but has grown too weary to go |
Tx:18.81 | coming. In the holy instant, you ask of love only what it offers | everyone, neither less nor more. Asking for everything, you will |
Tx:18.93 | of guilt upon it. Here are you forgiven, for here you have forgiven | everyone. Here is the new perception, where everything is bright and |
Tx:19.1 | its only goal is brought to truth by faith. This faith encompasses | everyone involved, for only thus the situation is perceived as |
Tx:19.1 | thus the situation is perceived as meaningful and as a whole. And | everyone must be involved in it, or else your faith is limited and |
Tx:19.11 | is the acknowledgment of union. It is the gracious acknowledgment of | everyone as a Son of your most loving Father, loved by Him like you |
Tx:19.11 | healed because you looked on what makes faith forever justified in | everyone. |
Tx:19.37 | And you will carry its message of love and safety and freedom to | everyone who draws nigh unto your temple, where healing waits for him. |
Tx:19.39 | need to see. When the peace in you has been extended to encompass | everyone, the Holy Spirit's function here will be accomplished. What |
Tx:19.40 | the whole creation, it must begin with you and from you reach to | everyone who calls and bring him rest by joining you. |
Tx:19.41 | alone. Christ asks it of you for Himself. He would bring peace to | everyone, and how can He do this except through you? Would you let |
Tx:19.44 | But let Him quietly extend the miracle of your relationship to | everyone contained in it, as it was given. |
Tx:19.55 | This is a feast which honors your holy relationship and at which | everyone is welcomed as an honored guest. And in a holy instant, |
Tx:19.55 | as an honored guest. And in a holy instant, grace is said by | everyone together as they join in gentleness before the table of |
Tx:19.66 | of guilt, and all the world will answer. Think of your happiness as | everyone offers you witness of the end of sin and shows you that its |
Tx:19.87 | see in it the Will of God. Here is the babe of Bethlehem reborn. And | everyone who gives him shelter will follow him, not to the cross, but |
Tx:19.99 | is it possible to look on this too soon. This is the place to which | everyone must come when he is ready. Once he has found his brother, |
Tx:19.109 | But the redeemed give joy because they have been healed of pain. | Everyone gives as he receives, but he must choose what it will be |
Tx:20.38 | is far beyond it. Two voices raised together call to the hearts of | everyone and let them beat as one. And in that single heart beat is |
Tx:20.38 | the unity of the Son of God together. You give to one another for | everyone, and in your gift is everyone made glad. Forget not Who has |
Tx:20.38 | together. You give to one another for everyone, and in your gift is | everyone made glad. Forget not Who has given you the gifts you give, |
Tx:21.12 | in all. And when you see it in each other, you are remembering for | everyone. |
Tx:21.23 | to you to welcome it or not. Faith and desire go hand in hand, for | everyone believes in what he wants. |
Tx:21.66 | What madness would conceal, the Holy Spirit still holds out for | everyone to look upon with gladness. |
Tx:22.9 | no difficulty in understanding what this vision tells you, for | everyone sees only what he thinks he is. And what your sight would |
Tx:22.42 | you walk the world with me, whose message has not yet been given to | everyone. For you are here to let it be received. God's offer still |
Tx:22.43 | His message of hope and freedom and release from suffering to | everyone who needs a miracle to save him. |
Tx:22.44 | How easy is it to offer this miracle to | everyone! No one who has received it for himself could find it |
Tx:22.59 | given Him to make each little gift of love a source of healing for | everyone. Each little gift you offer to the other lights up the |
Tx:23.20 | The first chaotic law is that the truth is different for | everyone. Like all these principles, this one maintains that each is |
Tx:23.43 | and give up the rest. Salvation gives up nothing. It is complete for | everyone. Let the idea of compromise but enter, and the awareness of |
Tx:24.46 | and of death. He reaches through them, holding out His hand that | everyone may bless all living things and see their holiness. And He |
Tx:24.62 | How bitterly does | everyone tied to this world defend the specialness he wants to be the |
Tx:25.20 | along with His. The gratitude of God Himself is freely offered to | everyone who shares His purpose. It is not His Will to be alone. And |
Tx:25.27 | your error, lest you remain in darkness where the lamps are not. | Everyone here has entered darkness, yet no one has entered it alone. |
Tx:25.32 | seek for it because it is their purpose to behold it and rejoice. | Everyone seeks for what will bring him joy as he defines it. It is |
Tx:25.35 | can never fall away and leave you homeless. Those who offer peace to | everyone have found a home in Heaven the world cannot destroy. For it |
Tx:25.40 | offers you salvation. Condemned by you, he offers death to you. In | everyone you see but the reflection of what you chose to have him be |
Tx:25.50 | and as strong as God Himself. The world is safe from love to | everyone who thinks sin possible. Nor will it change. Yet is it |
Tx:25.57 | One as sane as He to raise a saner world to meet the sight of | everyone who chose insanity as his salvation. To this One is given |
Tx:25.61 | is rebirth of the idea no one can lose for anyone to gain. And | everyone must gain if anyone would be a gainer. Here is sanity |
Tx:25.66 | justice does He know and knows it well. For He is wholly fair to | everyone. |
Tx:25.76 | How can the special really understand that justice is the same for | everyone? To take from one to give another must be an injustice to |
Tx:25.79 | Him. Yet would His justice not be satisfied until it is received by | everyone. |
Tx:25.83 | And what would be unjust to him cannot occur. Healing must be for | everyone because he does not merit an attack of any kind. What |
Tx:25.84 | to specialness. What He cannot perceive He bears no witness to. And | everyone is equally entitled to His gift of healing and deliverance |
Tx:25.85 | not. Only forgiveness offers miracles. And pardon must be just to | everyone. |
Tx:25.86 | must be done to all if anyone is to be healed. No one can lose, and | everyone must benefit. |
Tx:25.87 | is an example of what justice can accomplish when it is offered to | everyone alike. It is received and given equally. It is awareness |
Tx:25.87 | it sees no differences where none exist. And thus it is the same for | everyone, because it sees no differences in them. Its offering is |
Tx:25.88 | What is God's belongs to | everyone and is his due. |
Tx:26.15 | on him. Nor will the Holy Spirit be content until it is received by | everyone. For what you give to Him is everyone's, and by your |
Tx:26.15 | to Him is everyone's, and by your giving it can He ensure that | everyone receives it equally. |
Tx:26.67 | Your ancient name belongs to | everyone, as theirs to you. Call on your brother's name and God will |
Tx:27.4 | if only it can serve to punish him. The sick are merciless to | everyone, and in contagion do they seek to kill. Death seems an easy |
Tx:29.6 | what loving means. And so you must misuse each circumstance and | everyone you meet and see in them a purpose not your own. |
Tx:29.13 | healed when you accept your gifts, because your Guest will welcome | everyone whose feet have touched the holy ground whereon you stand |
Tx:29.68 | dreamed by someone else. And in these dreams a melody is heard which | everyone remembers, though he has not heard it since before all time |
Tx:29.70 | to worship idols and to keep attack. Forgiving dreams are kind to | everyone who figures in the dream. And so they bring the dreamer full |
Tx:30.59 | quite remembered, for the purpose of forgiveness still remains. Yet | everyone is certain he will go beyond forgiveness, and he but remains |
Tx:30.75 | you. What can this be except a false forgiveness of yourself and | everyone who seems apart from you? |
Tx:30.85 | experiences here. In this shared purpose is one [meaning] shared by | everyone and everything you see. You do not have to judge, for you |
Tx:31.8 | the call was made. And you will understand it was this call that | everyone and everything within the world has always made, but you |
Tx:31.33 | death a little time is given you to use for you alone, a time when | everyone conflicts with you, but you can choose which road will lead |
Tx:31.35 | offer seem to be quite large in number, but the time must come when | everyone begins to see how like they are to one another. Men have |
Tx:31.56 | the self has always been the great preoccupation of the world. And | everyone believes that he must find the answer to the riddle of |
Tx:31.75 | vision does he see the face of Christ and understands he looks on | everyone as he beholds this One. For there is light where darkness |
Tx:31.77 | as this has saved himself, and thus is he a savior to the rest. To | everyone has God entrusted all, because a partial savior would be one |
Tx:31.77 | saved. The holy ones whom God has given each of you to save are | everyone you meet or look upon, not knowing who they are, all those |
Tx:31.78 | and thus expect to see it everywhere. And so they call it forth in | everyone they look upon that he may be what they expect of him. This |
Tx:31.93 | before your feet the peace of God and power to bring this peace to | everyone who wanders in the world uncertain, lonely, and in constant |
Tx:31.93 | that you saw before. Yet this a vision is which you must share with | everyone you see, for otherwise you will behold it not. To give this |
Tx:31.94 | For you will hear, and you will choose again. And in this choice is | everyone made free. |
W1:37.1 | blessed together. No one loses; nothing is taken away from anyone; | everyone gains through your holy vision. It signifies the end of |
W1:37.1 | holy vision. It signifies the end of sacrifice because it offers | everyone his full due. And he is entitled to everything because it is |
W1:52.3 | the world I look upon. I call this seeing. I hold the past against | everyone and everything, making them my “enemies.” When I have |
W1:52.3 | When I have forgiven myself and remembered who I am, I will bless | everyone and everything I see. There will be no past and therefore no |
W1:55.6 | about myself are real. It is for that purpose that I attempt to use | everyone and everything. It is this that I believe the world is for. |
W1:58.3 | the world. The perception of my holiness does not bless me alone. | Everyone and everything I see in its light shares in the joy it |
W1:58.3 | my holiness, so does the holiness of the world shine forth for | everyone to see. |
W1:58.5 | my holiness, nothing can make me afraid. And because I am unafraid, | everyone must share in my understanding, which is the gift of God to |
W1:60.4 | can see it! It will not look anything like what I imagine I see now. | Everyone and everything I see will lean toward me to bless me. I will |
W1:60.4 | I see will lean toward me to bless me. I will recognize in | everyone my dearest Friend. What could there be to fear in a world |
W1:68.9 | period trying to think of yourself as completely at peace with | everyone and everything, safe in a world which protects you and loves |
W1:69.1 | Because your grievances are hiding the light of the world in you, | everyone stands in darkness, and you beside him. But as the veil of |
W1:69.3 | search today by finding the light in us and holding it up for | everyone who searches with us to look upon and rejoice. |
W1:71.3 | change of mind that is necessary for salvation is thus demanded of | everyone and everything except yourself. |
W1:75.2 | now. The light has come. Today the time of light begins for you and | everyone. It is a new era in which a new world is born. The old one |
W1:77.4 | and that in asking for your rights you are upholding the rights of | everyone. Miracles do not obey the laws of this world. They merely |
W1:78.6 | will learn that what lay hidden while you saw him not is there in | everyone and can be seen. He who was enemy is more than friend when |
W1:78.12 | to save us and refuse to hide his light behind our grievances. To | everyone you meet and to the ones you think of or remember from the |
W1:79.2 | Everyone in this world seems to have his own special problems. Yet | |

W1:166.6 | the rocky road he walks. No one but has identified with him, for | everyone who comes here has pursued the path he follows and has felt |

Tx:7.108 | he is out of his natural environment and does not function well. | Everything he does becomes a strain, because he was not created for |
Tx:7.109 | they deny Him, they do not know this, because they deny themselves | everything. |
Tx:7.110 | You who could give the love of God to | everything you see and touch and remember are literally denying |

Tx:8.79 | with its function as the Holy Spirit sees it cannot be sick. | Everything used otherwise is. Do not allow the body to be a mirror |
Tx:8.80 | once said that the Holy Spirit is the Answer. He is the Answer to | everything, because He knows what the answer to everything is. The |
Tx:8.80 | He is the Answer to everything, because He knows what the answer to | everything is. The ego does not know what a real question is, |
Tx:8.81 | which wants things to be as they are not. The reality of | everything is totally harmless, because total harmlessness is the |
Tx:8.88 | be nothing which prevents you from doing exactly what I ask, and | everything which argues for your doing it. I give you no limits |
Tx:8.104 | to. Otherwise, you would not have been created perfect. Reality is | everything, and therefore you have everything because you are real. |
Tx:8.104 | created perfect. Reality is everything, and therefore you have | everything because you are real. You cannot make the unreal, |
Tx:8.118 | nothing because you have denied Him nothing, and so you can share | everything. This is the way, and the only way, to have His answer |
Tx:9.7 | is of God, Who does not know of arrogance. The Holy Spirit forgives | everything, because God created everything. |
Tx:9.7 | The Holy Spirit forgives everything, because God created | everything. |
Tx:9.33 | this means? If what you do to my brother you do to me, and if you do | everything for yourself because we are part of you, everything we |
Tx:9.33 | and if you do everything for yourself because we are part of you, | everything we do belongs to you as well. Every Soul God created |
Tx:9.37 | one of them, you would not want anything the world has to offer. | Everything else would be totally meaningless. God's meaning is |
Tx:9.41 | do, because He never forgets what you are. The ego is deceived by | everything you do, even when you respond to the Holy Spirit, because |
Tx:9.60 | to Him as you do, but nothing is added that is different, because | everything has always been. What can upset you except the |
Tx:9.61 | can reach you from beyond it because, being in God, you encompass | everything. Believe this, and you will realize how much is up to |
Tx:9.64 | you love your creations as yourself because they are part of you. | Everything that was created is therefore perfectly safe, because the |
Tx:9.65 | long as you are asleep. Yet the instant you waken, you know that | everything that seemed to happen did not happen at all. You do not |
Tx:9.67 | You will remember | everything the instant you desire it wholly, for if to desire |
Tx:9.70 | But signify your will to remember Him and behold! He will give you | everything but for the asking. |
Tx:9.88 | work only for your good, and there are no other laws beside His. | Everything else is merely lawless and therefore chaotic. Yet God |
Tx:9.88 | merely lawless and therefore chaotic. Yet God Himself has protected | everything He created by His laws. Therefore, everything that is |
Tx:9.88 | has protected everything He created by His laws. Therefore, | everything that is not under them does not exist. “Laws of chaos” are |
Tx:9.99 | and you will learn of Him if you hear aright. The love of God is in | everything He created, for His Son is everywhere. Look with peace |
Tx:9.106 | of God will you have anything, because His fatherhood gave you | everything. That is why to deny Him is to deny yourself. Arrogance |
Tx:10.3 | light. There you will see that it rests on meaninglessness and that | everything of which you have been afraid was based on nothing. |
Tx:10.4 | have looked upon ours. I come to you from our Father to offer you | everything again. Do not refuse it in order to keep a dark |
Tx:10.10 | God's Mind cannot be lessened. It can only be increased, and | everything He creates has the function of creating. Love does not |
Tx:10.12 | not know what it is. The reason you must ask what God's Will is in | everything is merely because it is yours. You do not know what it |
Tx:10.44 | and its purpose is always the natural extension of what it is. | Everything that stems from the ego is the natural outcome of its |
Tx:10.53 | clearly the characteristically contradictory approach of the ego to | everything. Never forget that the ego believes that power, |
Tx:10.53 | with the conviction that separation is salvation, the ego attacks | everything it perceives by breaking it up into small and disconnected |
Tx:10.58 | of the reality of the kingdom you have chosen for your vigilance. | Everything you perceive is a witness to the thought system you want |
Tx:10.64 | it represents what you want to be. The freedom to leave behind | everything that hurts you and humbles you and frightens you cannot be |
Tx:10.69 | world is not as you see it. God created only the eternal, and | everything you see is perishable. Therefore, there must be another |
Tx:10.71 | believing what you made to be capable of being unlike Him. Yet | everything in what you have made that is true is like Him. Only |
Tx:10.75 | And then | everything you made will be forgotten, the good and the bad, the |
Tx:10.81 | is yours and will take nothing in return. For what is yours is | everything, and you share it with God. This is its reality. Would |
Tx:11.3 | no effort at all on your part. Every loving thought is true. | Everything else is an appeal for healing and help. That is what it |
Tx:11.10 | taught you to accept only loving thoughts in others and to regard | everything else as an appeal for help, He has taught you that fear |
Tx:11.23 | planned program aimed at learning how to offer to the Holy Spirit | everything you do not want. He knows what to do with it. You do |
Tx:11.30 | Therefore the mind projects the split, not the reality. | Everything you perceive as the outside world is merely your attempt |
Tx:11.32 | the world of death. For death is not of the real world, in which | everything is eternal. God gave you the real world in exchange for |
Tx:11.41 | and a very heavy one. If death is your treasure, you will sell | everything else to purchase it. And you will believe that you have |
Tx:11.41 | will believe that you have purchased it because you have sold | everything else. Yet you cannot sell the Kingdom of Heaven. Your |
Tx:11.52 | are in complete accord. You need offer only undivided attention. | Everything else will be given you. For it is your will to learn |
Tx:11.59 | becomes generalized. Gradually you learn to apply it to everyone and | everything, for its applicability is universal. When this has been |
Tx:11.60 | of God. For the real world has slipped quietly into Heaven, where | everything eternal in it has always been. There the Redeemer and the |
Tx:11.73 | for you will see it without because you saw it first within. | Everything you behold without is a judgment of what you beheld |
Tx:11.80 | every question you ask, and a Vision will correct the perception of | everything you see. For what you have made invisible is the only |
Tx:11.82 | Everything you made has never been and is invisible because the Holy | |
Tx:11.84 | it from the hand of Christ and look upon it. Its reality will make | everything else invisible, for beholding it is total perception. |
Tx:11.92 | where you must be because He is with you. He has always undone | everything unworthy of the Son of God, for such was His mission, |
Tx:12.21 | peace he needed nothing and asked for nothing. In war he demanded | everything and found nothing. For how could the gentleness of love |
Tx:12.36 | go. And so they separate into their private worlds, where | everything is disordered and where what is within appears to be |
Tx:12.50 | is before time was and will be when time is no more. In it is | everything that is eternal, and they are one. Their continuity is |
Tx:12.55 | world is bright with love, which you have given it. And here will | everything remind you of your Father and His Holy Son. Light is |
Tx:12.65 | him. He is as safe from pain as God Himself, Who watches over him in | everything. The world about him shines with love because God placed |
Tx:12.69 | Everything that the ego tells you that you need will hurt you. For | |
Tx:12.70 | from you as long as you have any need of it. And yet He knows that | everything you need is temporary and will but last until you step |
Tx:13.2 | everywhere under His guidance, for the vision of Christ beholds | everything in light. Yet no perception, however holy, will last |
Tx:13.3 | replace aspects of unreality. Aspects of reality can be seen in | everything and everywhere. Yet only God can gather them together by |
Tx:13.4 | of timelessness in time, and that is why Christ's vision looks on | everything with love. Yet even Christ's vision is not His reality. |
Tx:13.14 | Atonement brings a re-evaluation of | everything you cherish, for it is the means by which the Holy Spirit |
Tx:13.37 | not. To value it partially is not to know its value. In Heaven is | everything God valued and nothing else. Heaven is perfectly |
Tx:13.37 | God valued and nothing else. Heaven is perfectly unambiguous. | Everything is clear and bright and calls forth one response. There |
Tx:13.45 | The Holy Spirit cannot fail to undo for you | everything you have learned that teaches you what is not true must be |
Tx:13.51 | logic, there is One Who knows it leads to nothing, for He knows | everything. |
Tx:13.58 | The truth is true. Nothing else matters, nothing else is real, and | everything beside it is not there. Let Me make the one distinction |
Tx:13.60 | to be happy learners. You will never learn how to make nothing | everything. Yet see that this has been your goal and recognize |
Tx:13.63 | of Christ is given the very instant that it is perceived. Where | everything is clear, it is all holy. The quietness of its simplicity |
Tx:13.63 | is nothing else. God is everywhere, and His Son is in Him with | everything. Can he sing the dirge of sorrow when this is true? |
Tx:13.75 | is all that you alone can offer yourself, when He Who gives you | everything will simply offer it to you? He will never ask what you |
Tx:13.75 | Instead, accept His answer, for He knows that you are worthy of | everything God wills for you. Do not try to escape the gift of God |
Tx:13.76 | Son? Nothing can shake God's conviction of the perfect purity of | everything that He created, for it is wholly pure. Do not decide |
Tx:13.76 | about what it is or where it lies, but ask of the Holy Spirit | everything and leave all decisions to His gentle counsel. |
Tx:13.77 | innocence, which sets you free. And it is His decision to undo | everything that would obscure your innocence from your unclouded mind. |
Tx:13.81 | is yours because your Father would have you share it with Him. In | everything be led by Him and do not reconsider. Trust Him to answer |
Tx:13.82 | Creator. Yet you remain in close communication with Him and with | everything that is within Him, as it is within yourself. Unlearn |
Tx:14.4 | Spirit can answer God for you, for only He knows what God is. | Everything else that you have placed within your mind cannot exist, |
Tx:14.14 | restore becomes your altar, for it was rebuilt through you. And | everything you give to God is yours. Thus He creates, and thus must |
Tx:14.15 | into it by blessing him. Holiness must be shared, for therein lies | everything that makes it holy. Come gladly to the holy circle, and |
Tx:14.18 | love remains, for only this has meaning and can live in light. | Everything else must disappear. |
Tx:14.22 | lead to unintelligibility. Yet if one means nothing and the other | everything, only that one is possible for purposes of communication. |
Tx:14.24 | your mind, and they are reconciled by union, as you are. In union, | everything that is not real must disappear, for truth is union. |
Tx:14.25 | The search for truth is but the honest searching out of | everything that interferes with truth. Truth is. It can be neither |
Tx:14.29 | Defenses, like | everything you made, must be gently turned to your own good, |
Tx:14.31 | yours, comes not from double vision but from the gentle fusing of | everything into one meaning, one emotion, and one purpose. God |
Tx:14.33 | He shares it still, for you. | Everything that promises otherwise, great or small, however much or |
Tx:14.36 | can change the knowledge given you by God into unknowingness. | Everything God created knows its Creator. For this is how creation is |
Tx:14.40 | Merely by being what it is does truth release you from | everything that it is not. The Atonement is so gentle you need but |
Tx:14.41 | Holiness by Which it was created.] The Presence of Holiness lives in | everything that lives, for Holiness created life and leaves not |
Tx:14.52 | are much too confused either to recognize love or to believe that | everything else is nothing but a need for love. You are too bound to |
Tx:14.56 | so you can understand them. God has no secret communications, for | everything of Him is perfectly open and freely accessible to all, |
Tx:14.58 | much between it and your awareness of it that you cannot use it. | Everything you have taught yourselves has made your power more and |
Tx:14.60 | Atonement teaches you how to escape forever from | everything that you have taught yourselves in the past by showing you |
Tx:14.64 | be concerned how you can learn a lesson so completely different from | everything you have taught yourselves. How would you know? Your part |
Tx:14.64 | you know? Your part is very simple. You need only recognize that | everything you learned you do not want. Ask to be taught and do |
Tx:15.22 | You offered this in place of magnitude, and you accepted it. | Everything in this world is little because it is a world made out of |
Tx:15.26 | His power. God is not willing that His Son be content with less than | everything. For He is not content without His Son, and His Son cannot |
Tx:15.32 | with nothing but His Will. Accept no less, remembering that | everything I learned is yours. What my Father loves, I love as He |
Tx:15.40 | It therefore seeks to change nothing, but merely to accept | everything. |
Tx:15.42 | want to have perfect communication, and am I wholly willing to let | everything that interferes with it go forever?” If the answer is no, |
Tx:15.65 | it asks nothing. Being wholly pure, everyone joined in it has | everything. This is not the basis for any relationship in which the |
Tx:15.79 | far beyond time. For a teaching assignment such as His, He must use | everything in this world for your release. He must side with every |
Tx:16.8 | and not yours. He will not meet them secretly, for He would share | everything you give through Him. And that is why He gives it. |
Tx:16.19 | Reality is safe and sure and wholly kind to everyone and | everything. There is no greater love than to accept this and be glad. |
Tx:16.19 | be glad. For love asks only that you be happy and will give you | everything that makes for happiness. You have never given any problem |
Tx:16.31 | else, and the symbol of love is without meaning if love is | everything. You will go through this last undoing quite unharmed and |
Tx:16.31 | but its reality, which awaits you on the other side, will give you | everything. |
Tx:16.38 | in the bleak world of illusion, where nothing is certain, and where | everything fails to satisfy. In the Name of God, be wholly willing to |
Tx:16.45 | is the opposite of Heaven, being made to be its opposite, and | everything here takes a direction exactly opposite of what is true. |
Tx:16.64 | more than a transition in your perspective of reality. On this side, | everything you see is grossly distorted and completely out of |
Tx:16.72 | It is completely savage and completely insane. For the ego remembers | everything that you have done which offended it and seeks retribution |
Tx:16.75 | stillness and the peace of now enfolds you in perfect gentleness. | Everything is gone except the truth. |
Tx:16.77 | that His Son will always be exactly as he was created. And | everything the Holy Spirit teaches you is to remind you that you |
Tx:17.8 | not a fantasy. It is the real world, bright and clean and new with | everything sparkling under the open sun. Nothing is hidden here, for |
Tx:17.8 | everything sparkling under the open sun. Nothing is hidden here, for | everything has been forgiven, and there are no fantasies to hide the |
Tx:17.10 | Perception will be meaningless when it has been perfected, for | everything that has been used for learning will have no function. |
Tx:17.30 | it to be healed. This blessing holds within itself the truth about | everything. And the truth is that the Holy Spirit is in close |
Tx:17.43 | is the expression of the holy instant in living in this world. Like | everything about salvation, the holy instant is a practical device, |
Tx:17.60 | with the accomplishment of your objective and concentrate on | everything which helps you meet it. It is quite noticeable that this |
Tx:18.2 | what God has joined and what the Holy Spirit sees as one. But | everything seems to come between the fragmented relationships the |
Tx:18.4 | to death, was all you ever made. Your whole world rests upon it. | Everything you see reflects it, and every special relationship which |
Tx:18.6 | is conceivable. Do you really think it strange that a world in which | everything is backwards and upside-down arose from this? [It was |
Tx:18.9 | In your relationship, where He has taken charge of | everything at your request, He has set the course inward to the truth |
Tx:18.16 | awakening, you do not expect it to be gone. In dreams you arrange | everything. People become what you would have them be, and what they |
Tx:18.31 | away the past and so make room for His eternal Presence, in which | everything is radiant in the light. |
Tx:18.40 | Forget not that it has been your decision to make | everything that is natural and easy for you impossible. What you |
Tx:18.40 | belief in orders of difficulty in miracles is centered on this. | Everything God wills is not only possible but has already happened. |
Tx:18.71 | Can you who see yourselves within a body know yourself as an idea? | Everything you recognize you identify with externals, something |
Tx:18.75 | things but by no means totally dependent on their one Creator for | everything and needing the whole to give them any meaning, for by |
Tx:18.78 | Love knows no bodies and reaches to | everything created like itself. Its total lack of limit is its |
Tx:18.81 | only what it offers everyone, neither less nor more. Asking for | everything, you will receive it. And your shining Self will lift |
Tx:18.87 | Everything these messages relay to you is quite external. There are | |
Tx:18.93 | here you have forgiven everyone. Here is the new perception, where | everything is bright and shining with innocence, washed in the waters |
Tx:18.96 | of you and yours of Him so far transcend all learning that | everything you learned is meaningless, replaced forever by the |
Tx:19.22 | be said the ego made its world on sin. Only in such a world could | everything be upside-down. This is the strange illusion which makes |
Tx:19.22 | in place by just this strange device. As truth it is inviolate, and | everything is brought to it for judgment. As a mistake, it must |
Tx:19.29 | must have been broken. Yet at the line, its wholeness is apparent. | Everything seen from the spiral is misperceived, but as you approach |
Tx:19.47 | Its seeming stability is its pervasive weakness, which extends to | everything. The variability which the little remnant induces merely |
Tx:19.88 | but must be sought in what they represent. And they may thus mean | everything or nothing, according to the truth or falsity of the idea |
Tx:19.90 | you would remember your Father. The Creator of life, the Source of | everything that lives, the Father of the universe and of the universe |
Tx:19.90 | the Father of the universe and of the universe of universes and of | everything that lies even beyond them would you remember. And as this |
Tx:20.9 | but only lilies, gleaming in the gentle glow of peace that shines on | everything He looks upon and loves. |
Tx:20.28 | Being without illusion of what you are, the Holy Spirit merely gives | everything to God, Who has already given and received all that is |
Tx:20.36 | before you reach it. You need take thought for nothing, careless of | everything except the only purpose that you would fulfill. As that |
Tx:20.42 | nothing from it, and the future will add no more. Here, then, is | everything. Here is the loveliness of your relationship, with means |
Tx:20.72 | Everything looked upon with vision falls gently into place according | |
Tx:20.72 | to the laws brought to it by His calm and certain sight. The end for | everything He looks upon is always sure. For it will meet His |
Tx:20.72 | sin, unable to overlook it in any form and seeing it everywhere, in | everything. Look through its eyes, and everything will stand |
Tx:20.72 | and seeing it everywhere, in everything. Look through its eyes, and | everything will stand condemned before you. All that could save you, |
Tx:21.1 | And that is why order of difficulty in miracles is meaningless. | Everything looked upon with vision is healed and holy. Nothing |
Tx:21.6 | that or nothing. They hate the world they learned through pain. And | everything they think is in it serves to remind them that they are |
Tx:21.10 | Beyond the body, beyond the sun and stars, past | everything you see and yet somehow familiar, is an arc of golden |
Tx:21.10 | is in it is no longer contained at all. The light expands and covers | everything, extending to infinity, forever shining and with no break |
Tx:21.10 | forever shining and with no break or limit anywhere. Within it | everything is joined in perfect continuity. Nor is it possible to |
Tx:21.13 | the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit for which He gives you | everything; the very little on which salvation rests; the tiny change |
Tx:21.15 | I experience, and I decided on the goal I would achieve. And | everything that seems to happen to me, I asked for and received as I |
Tx:21.18 | it, and you keep the world as now you see it. Give it away, and | everything you see goes with it. Never was so much given for so |
Tx:21.28 | “proves” otherwise, and you deny your whole reality. But grant that | everything which seems to stand between you, keeping you from each |
Tx:21.87 | Sure in its vision as its Creator is in what He knows, it looks on | everything and sees it is the same. It sees not the ephemeral, for it |
Tx:21.87 | sees it is the same. It sees not the ephemeral, for it desires that | everything be like itself and sees it so. Nothing has power to |
Tx:22.9 | Your sight was given you, along with | everything that you can understand. You will perceive no difficulty |
Tx:22.18 | way to the eternal. Only the timeless must remain unchanged, but | everything in time can change with time. Yet if the change be real |
Tx:22.32 | it does not recognize and does not know if it is there or not. | Everything which the body's eyes can see is a mistake, an error in |
Tx:22.33 | form of nothing. To this distorted form of vision, the outside of | everything, the wall that stands between you and the truth, is wholly |
Tx:22.42 | from harm. And each will be the other's strong protector from | everything that seems to rise between you. So shall you walk the |
Tx:22.45 | the strong ones in this seeming conflict. And you need no defense. | Everything that needs defense you do not want, for anything that |
Tx:22.48 | sings as one? Which is the stronger? Is it this tiny mouse or | everything that God created? You are not joined together by this |
Tx:22.56 | love all that He loves. And what you bring is your remembrance of | everything that is eternal. No trace of anything in time can long |
Tx:23.2 | indeed becomes this war against yourself! You will believe that | everything you use for sin can hurt you and become your enemy. And |
Tx:23.3 | they see is harmful, for their awareness of the truth releases | everything from the illusion of harmfulness. And what seemed harmful |
Tx:23.6 | given you. In kind forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine and | everything you once thought sinful now will be reinterpreted as part |
Tx:23.16 | him. Illusions have no place where love abides, protecting you from | everything that is not true. You dwell in peace as limitless as its |
Tx:23.16 | is not true. You dwell in peace as limitless as its Creator, and | everything is given those who would remember Him. Over His home the |
Tx:23.55 | of battle. What could they gain but loss of their perfection? For | everything fought for on the battleground is of the body—something |
Tx:23.55 | something it seems to offer or to own. No one who knows that he has | everything could seek for limitation, nor could he value the body's |
Tx:23.55 | from the quiet sphere above the battleground. What can conflict with | everything? And what is there that offers less, yet could be wanted |
Tx:24.2 | each decision you make. For a decision is a conclusion based on | everything that you believe. It is the outcome of belief and |
Tx:24.3 | the smallest gift is not to know love's purpose. Love offers | everything forever. Hold back but one belief, one offering, and love |
Tx:24.21 | Him, and your brother is like you. Not special, but possessed of | everything including you. |
Tx:24.29 | is safe, resting on Him. It is your specialness that is attacked by | everything that walks and breathes or creeps or crawls or even lives |
Tx:24.34 | in anyone except yourself. Faith is invested in yourself alone. | Everything else becomes your enemy—feared and attacked, deadly and |
Tx:24.37 | and your treasure house barren and empty with an open door inviting | everything that would disturb your peace to enter and destroy. |
Tx:24.53 | is made, not of itself, but through the Voice that speaks for God in | everything that lives and shares His Being. |
Tx:24.54 | eyes which see can look upon. It is His loveliness they see in | everything. And it is He they look for everywhere and find no sight |
Tx:24.63 | alone. What is within your brother still contains all of creation, | everything created and creating, born and unborn as yet, still in the |
Tx:24.67 | The test of | everything on earth is simply this: “What is it for?” The answer |
Tx:25.43 | The grace of God rests gently on forgiving eyes, and | everything they look on speaks of Him to the beholder. He can see no |
Tx:25.49 | be perfectly fulfilled in both of you. Do this one thing, that | everything be given you. |
Tx:25.54 | to death and cruelty, to separation, and to differences. For here is | everything perceived as one, and no one loses that each one may gain. |
Tx:25.55 | Test | everything that you believe against this one requirement. And |
Tx:25.55 | that you believe against this one requirement. And understand that | everything that meets this one demand is worthy of your faith. But |
Tx:25.73 | To him who merits | everything, how can it be that anything be kept from him? For that |
Tx:25.76 | to both. Who would have more or less is not aware that he has | everything. He is no judge of what must be another's due, because he |
Tx:25.86 | removed for you. And so they gather dust and grow until they cover | everything that you perceive and leave you fair to no one. Not one |
Tx:26.3 | you alone. And for this little to belong to you are limits placed on | everything outside, just as they are on everything you think is |
Tx:26.3 | to you are limits placed on everything outside, just as they are on | everything you think is yours. For giving and receiving are the |
Tx:26.17 | He cannot be unjust to anyone or anything because He knows that | everything that is belongs to Him and will forever be as He created |
Tx:26.18 | choosing be a necessary step in the advance toward oneness. What is | everything leaves room for nothing else. |
Tx:26.19 | every thought made pure and wholly simple. Here is sin denied and | everything that is received instead. |
Tx:26.26 | of Heaven. There is no sadness, and there is no parting here, for | everything is totally forgiven. And what has been forgiven must join, |
Tx:26.27 | What is Heaven but a song of gratitude and love and praise by | everything created to the Source of its creation? The holiest of |
Tx:26.32 | mind, with no effect upon eternity. And so is all time passed and | everything exactly as it was before the way to nothingness was made. |
Tx:26.37 | is a voice that calls out from a past forever more gone by. And | everything which points to it as real is but a wish that what is gone |
Tx:26.38 | see the past and put it in the present? You can not go back. And | everything that points the way in the direction of the past but sets |
Tx:26.57 | What is the Will of God? He wills His Son have | everything. And this He guaranteed when He created him as |
Tx:26.57 | Son have everything. And this He guaranteed when He created him as | everything. It is impossible that anything be lost if what you have |
Tx:26.58 | much but far too little. He would sacrifice his own identity with | everything to find a little treasure of his own. And this he cannot |
Tx:26.61 | still demands that he must make some sacrifice and thus denies that | everything is his, unlimited by loss of any kind. A tiny sacrifice is |
Tx:26.66 | will save them all, for what is one can have no specialness. And | everything belongs to each of them. No wishes lie between a brother |
Tx:26.73 | they may not come, although already there? You have been told that | everything brings good that comes from God. And yet it seems as if |
Tx:26.87 | not yourself. Projection of the cause of sacrifice is at the root of | everything perceived to be unfair and not your just deserts. Yet it |
Tx:27.5 | you have sent your brother you have looked upon in grief. And | everything that it has shown to him have you believed because it |
Tx:27.16 | you will believe. The power of witness comes from your belief. And | everything you say or do or think but testifies to what you teach to |
Tx:27.32 | Nothing points beyond the truth, for what can stand for more than | everything? Yet true undoing must be kind. And so the first |
Tx:27.49 | Thus is your healing | everything the world requires that it may be healed. It needs one |
Tx:27.68 | Once you were unaware of what the cause of | everything the world appeared to thrust upon you, uninvited and |
Tx:28.18 | because of what he is. The cause of healing is the only Cause of | everything. It has but one effect. And in that recognition, |
Tx:28.66 | upon your brother's health, upon his happiness, his sinlessness, and | everything his Father promised him. No secret promise you have made |
Tx:29.14 | You do not see how much you now can give because of | everything you have received. Yet He Who entered in but waits for |
Tx:29.19 | love, or look upon it as a thing you hate. For if He be the sum of | everything, then what is not in Him does not exist, and His |
Tx:29.44 | outside of himself that will bring happiness and peace to him. If | everything is in him, this cannot be so. And therefore by his coming, |
Tx:29.44 | denies the truth about himself and seeks for something more than | everything, as if a part of it were separated off and found where all |
Tx:29.58 | except His Will. Nothing and nowhere must an idol be while God is | everything and everywhere. |

W1:I.3 | of these exercises is to train the mind to a different perception of | everything in the world. The workbook is divided into two sections, |
W1:I.4 | one applies to every situation in which you find yourself and to | everything you see in it. Each day's exercises are planned around one |
W1:I.4 | exercises will always be to increase the application of the idea to | everything. This will not require effort. Only be sure that you make |
W1:1.5 | day, use it totally indiscriminately. Do not attempt to apply it to | everything you see, for these exercises should not become |
W1:2.1 | concentrate on anything in particular, and do not attempt to include | everything in an area or you will introduce strain. Merely glance |
W1:7.3 | It is the reason why you have given | everything you see all the meaning that it has for you. |
W1:7.8 | Old ideas about time are very difficult to change because | everything you believe is rooted in time and depends on your not |
W1:14.1 | world is impossible. What God did not create does not exist. And | everything that does exist exists as He created it. The world you see |
W1:16.1 | step in dispelling the belief that your thoughts have no effect. | Everything you see is the result of your thoughts. There is no |
W1:22.2 | to find that you can escape? You made what you would destroy— | everything that you hate and would attack and kill. All that you fear |
W1:23.1 | only way out of fear that will ever succeed. Nothing else will work; | everything else is meaningless. But this way cannot fail. Every |
W1:23.3 | The world you see is a vengeful world, and | everything in it is a symbol of vengeance. Each of your perceptions |
W1:23.4 | see when its cause is gone? Vision already holds a replacement for | everything you think you see now. Loveliness can light your images |
W1:25.1 | You do not know what it is for. Therefore it is meaningless to you. | Everything is for your own best interests. That is what it is for; |
W1:25.2 | You perceive the world and | everything in it as meaningful in terms of ego goals. These goals |
W1:25.5 | learning to be willing to give up the goals you have established for | everything. The recognition that they are meaningless, rather than |
W1:30.3 | looking about you and trying to realize that the idea applies to | everything you do see now or could see now if it were within the |
W1:37.1 | because it offers everyone his full due. And he is entitled to | everything because it is his birthright as a Son of God. |
W1:38.2 | it is equal in its power to save anyone. If you are holy, so is | everything God created. You are holy because all things He created |
W1:41.2 | despite the serious and tragic forms it may take. Deep within you is | everything that is perfect, ready to radiate through you and out into |
W1:44.5 | is very simple. While you practice in this form, you leave behind | everything that you now believe and all the thoughts which you have |
W1:45.10 | Everything that you have thought since then will change, but the | |
W1:50.1 | and throughout time. In this world, you believe you are sustained by | everything but God. Your faith is placed in the most trivial and |
W1:51.3 | have given what I see all the meaning it has for me. I have judged | everything I look upon. And it is this and only this that I see. This |
W1:51.6 | attacks are warranted. I have not realized how much I have misused | everything I see by assigning this role to it. I have done this to |
W1:52.3 | look upon. I call this seeing. I hold the past against everyone and | everything, making them my “enemies.” When I have forgiven myself and |
W1:52.3 | forgiven myself and remembered who I am, I will bless everyone and | everything I see. There will be no past and therefore no “enemies.” |
W1:53.5 | exist if God did not create it? He is the Source of all meaning, and | everything that is real is in His Mind. It is in my mind too because |
W1:54.4 | of nothing. I can also call upon my real thoughts, which share | everything with everybody. As my thoughts of separation call to the |
W1:54.5 | in experiencing the effects of my thoughts. I am alone in nothing. | Everything I think or say or do touches all the universe. A Son of |
W1:55.3 | the representation of loving thoughts. It is a picture of attack on | everything by everything. It is anything but a reflection of the Love |
W1:55.3 | of loving thoughts. It is a picture of attack on everything by | everything. It is anything but a reflection of the Love of God and |
W1:55.6 | [25] I do not know what anything is for. To me, the purpose of | everything is to prove that my illusions about myself are real. It is |
W1:55.6 | are real. It is for that purpose that I attempt to use everyone and | everything. It is this that I believe the world is for. Therefore I |
W1:56.5 | [29] God is in | everything I see. Behind every image I have made, the truth remains |
W1:56.5 | united with the Will of my Father. God is still everywhere and in | everything forever. And we who are part of Him will yet look past all |
W1:56.6 | [30] God is in | everything I see because God is in my mind. In my own mind, behind |
W1:57.4 | I ascribed to it, there must be another way of looking at it. I see | everything upside down, and my thoughts are the opposite of truth. I |
W1:58.2 | [36] My holiness envelops | everything I see. From my holiness does the perception of the real |
W1:58.3 | The perception of my holiness does not bless me alone. Everyone and | everything I see in its light shares in the joy it brings to me. |
W1:60.4 | will not look anything like what I imagine I see now. Everyone and | everything I see will lean toward me to bless me. I will recognize in |
W1:67.8 | your Father and of your Self. This is the Voice of truth replacing | everything that the ego tells you about yourself with the simple |
W1:68.9 | trying to think of yourself as completely at peace with everyone and | everything, safe in a world which protects you and loves you and |
W1:71.3 | that is necessary for salvation is thus demanded of everyone and | everything except yourself. |
W1:76.6 | needs repeating over and over until you realize that it applies to | everything that you have made in opposition to His Will. Your magic |
W1:85.5 | and then brought in. But from within me it will reach beyond, and | everything I see will but reflect the light that shines in me and in |
W1:92.7 | size. It fears and it attacks and hates itself, and darkness covers | everything it sees, leaving its dreams as fearful as itself. No |
W1:98.2 | has come. We have a mighty purpose to fulfill and have been given | everything we need with which to reach the goal. Not one mistake |
W1:98.6 | time has no meaning, you are being asked for nothing in return for | everything. Here is a bargain that you cannot lose. And what you gain |
W1:101.3 | real. Salvation must be feared, for it will kill but slowly, taking | everything away before it grants the welcome boon of death to victims |
W1:102.2 | purchase anything at all. It offers nothing and does not exist. And | everything you think it offers you is lacking in existence like |
W1:105.5 | adds by letting what cannot contain itself fulfill its aim of giving | everything it has away, securing it forever for itself. |
W1:106.7 | what you received. Thus does salvation start and thus it ends; when | everything is yours, and everything is given away, it will remain |
W1:106.7 | does salvation start and thus it ends; when everything is yours, and | everything is given away, it will remain with you forever. And the |
W1:109.2 | vision sees beyond appearances to that same truth in everyone and | everything there is. Here is the end of suffering for all the world |
W1:R3.4 | to them. They gave you nothing. But your practicing can offer | everything to you. And so accept its offering and be at peace. |
W1:R3.11 | to help you form the habit of applying what you learn each day to | everything you do. |
W1:122.4 | Why would you seek an answer other than the answer that will answer | everything? Here is the perfect answer, given to imperfect questions, |
W1:122.12 | for us since time began, kept waiting for today. Forgiveness offers | everything you want. Today all things you want are given you. |
W1:122.15 | Forgiveness offers | everything I want. Today I have accepted this as true. Today I have |
W1:123.8 | to you. Remember hourly to think of Him and give Him thanks for | everything He gave His Son that he might rise above the world |
W1:124.1 | available to us in all our undertakings. We can fail in nothing. | Everything we touch takes on a shining light which blesses and which |
W1:124.2 | How holy are our minds! And | everything we see reflects the holiness within the mind at one with |
W1:125.7 | your heart to you. His Voice is closer than your hand. His Love is | everything you are and that He is—the same as you, and you the same |
W1:127.3 | is a law without an opposite. Its wholeness is the power holding | everything as one, the link between the Father and the Son which |
W1:127.4 | you are is what He is. There is no love but His, and what He is, is | everything there is. There is no limit placed upon Himself, and so |
W1:128.2 | binds you to the world, and it will serve no other end but this. For | everything must serve the purpose you have given it until you see a |
W1:130.4 | Fear has made | everything you think you see. All separation, all distinctions, and |
W1:130.6 | a piece because it stems from one emotion and reflects its source in | everything you see. |
W1:130.12 | still remains within your range of choice to take the place of | everything that hell would show to you. All you need say to any part |
W1:131.4 | remembered, old yet new—an echo of a heritage forgot, yet holding | everything you really want. |
W1:131.6 | His perfect, timeless, and unchanging Love. You will find Heaven. | Everything you seek but this will fall away, yet not because it has |
W1:133.6 | a little, for there is no in-between. Each choice you make brings | everything to you or nothing. Therefore, if you learn the tests by |
W1:133.6 | Therefore, if you learn the tests by which you can distinguish | everything from nothing, you will make the better choice. |
W1:133.8 | will have nothing left. This is because when you deny his right to | everything, you have denied your own. You therefore will not |
W1:133.14 | by empty hands and open minds, which come with nothing to find | everything and claim it as their own. We will attempt to reach this |
W1:134.2 | is true. It must be limited to what is false. It is irrelevant to | everything except illusions. Truth is God's creation, and to pardon |
W1:134.21 | In | everything you do, remember this: |
W1:135.14 | service for a little while. In this capacity is health assured. For | everything the mind employs for this will function flawlessly and |
W1:135.17 | choice of what will happen. And it does not see that here and now is | everything it needs to guarantee a future quite unlike the past |
W1:135.19 | What could you not accept if you but knew that | everything that happens, all events, past, present, and to come, are |
W1:135.22 | for this is part of what was planned for us. We will be sure that | everything we need is given us for our accomplishment of this today. |
W1:137.10 | your own as you extend the little help He asks in freeing you from | everything that ever caused you pain. And as you let yourself be |
W1:137.13 | this? Is not a little time a small expense to offer for the gift of | everything? |
W1:141.2 | [122] Forgiveness offers | everything I want. |
W1:151.10 | Let Him be judge as well of | everything that seems to happen to you in this world. His lessons |
W1:151.12 | for unholiness, within the Holy, holy as Itself. In everyone and | everything, His Voice would speak to you of nothing but your Self and |
W1:151.12 | Who is one with Him. So will you see the holy face of Christ in | everything and hear in everything no sound except the echo of God's |
W1:151.12 | So will you see the holy face of Christ in everything and hear in | everything no sound except the echo of God's Voice. |
W1:152.2 | to be true. Yet can truth have exceptions? If you have the gift of | everything, can loss be real? Can pain be part of peace, or grief of |
W1:154.3 | the strength to understand it, do what it entails, and to succeed in | everything you do that is related to it. God has joined His Son in |
W1:155.12 | love, and of your full intent? What way could give you more than | everything or offer less and still content the holy Son of God? We |
W1:156.3 | be holiness as well as life. No attribute of His remains unshared by | everything that lives. What lives is holy as Himself because what |
W1:157.9 | Into Christ's Presence will we enter now, serenely unaware of | everything except His shining face and perfect Love. The vision of |
W1:159.6 | treasure house to which you can appeal with perfect certainty for | everything that can contribute to your happiness. All are laid here |
W1:161.2 | of the mind. But part of it is now unnatural. It does not look on | everything as one. It sees instead but fragments of the whole, for |
W1:161.3 | us from a different point of view, so we can see a different use in | everything. |
W1:161.7 | Voice proclaims there is no death. Fear is insatiable, consuming | everything its eyes behold, seeing itself in everything, compelled to |
W1:161.7 | insatiable, consuming everything its eyes behold, seeing itself in | everything, compelled to turn upon itself and to destroy. |
W1:163.9 | would look upon the glorious reflection of Your love which shines in | everything. We live and breathe in You alone. We are not separate |
W1:165.2 | It you live. It is your Source of life, holding you one with It, and | everything is one with you because It left you not. The Thought of |
W1:166.5 | alone though God is with him, and a treasure his so great that | everything the world contains is valueless before its magnitude. |
W1:168.4 | instant longer? What remains undone when your forgiveness rests on | everything? |
W1:169.2 | hate and fear are gone, for grace presents a state so opposite to | everything the world contains that those whose minds are lighted by |
W1:183.7 | wish we have, the only sound with any meaning, and the only name of | everything that we desire to see; of everything that we would call |
W1:183.7 | meaning, and the only name of everything that we desire to see; of | everything that we would call our own. |
W1:184.1 | You live by symbols. You have made up names for | everything you see. Each one becomes a separate entity, identified by |
W1:185.1 | To say these words is nothing. But to mean these words is | everything. If you could but mean them for just an instant, there |
W1:186.12 | image of yourself, confused, bewildered, inconsistent and unsure of | everything? Let not its voice direct you. Hear instead a certain |
W1:186.13 | He is complete; a gift to you, although He knows that you have | everything already. He has thoughts which answer every need His Son |
W1:187.11 | we look upon. And to ensure this holy sight is ours, we offer it to | everything we see. For where we see it, it will be returned to us in |
W1:189.3 | one is wholly meaningless. A world in which forgiveness shines on | everything and peace offers its gentle light to everyone is |
W1:189.7 | the world, all images you hold about yourself. Empty your mind of | everything it thinks is either true or false or good or bad, of every |
W1:191.4 | else but this one thing is folly to believe. In this one thought is | everything set free. In this one truth are all illusions gone. In |
W1:191.4 | In this one fact is sinlessness proclaimed to be forever part of | everything, the central core of its existence, and its guarantee of |
W1:191.9 | And in that thought is | everything you look on wholly changed. |
W1:192.7 | are one and therefore give up nothing. But we have indeed been given | everything by God. Yet do we need forgiveness to perceive that this |
W1:193.10 | words in full awareness, and do not forget these words apply to | everything you see or any brother looks upon amiss. |
W1:193.17 | cast its shadow on the one that follows, and when that one goes, let | everything that happens in its course go with it. Thus will you |
W1:193.17 | is the lesson God would have you learn: there is a way to look on | everything that lets it be to you another step to Him and to |
W1:195.8 | is complete, you will have total gratitude, for you will see that | everything has earned the right to love by being loving, even as your |
W1:195.9 | gratitude in place of anger, malice, and revenge. We have been given | everything. If we refuse to recognize it, we are not entitled |
W1:198.13 | that can be perceived an instant longer. Then are symbols done and | everything you ever thought you made completely vanished from the |
W1:198.14 | He needs no thoughts of mercy. Who could give him gifts when | everything is his? And who could dream of offering forgiveness to the |
W1:198.15 | Today we come still nearer to the end of | everything that yet would stand between this vision and our sight. |
W1:R6.5 | day, no form of exercise is urged except a deep relinquishment of | everything that clutters up the mind and makes it deaf to reason, |
W1:205.1 | [185] I want the peace of God. The peace of God is | everything I want. The peace of God is my one goal; the aim of all my |
W1:209.1 | me now. The Love of God is what created me. The Love of God is | everything I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His Son. The Love |
W2:WIW.3 | but a solid base where truth exists, upheld apart from lies. Yet | everything that they report is but illusion, which is kept apart from |
W2:242.2 | by us. You know all our desires and our needs. And You will give us | everything we want and that will help us find the way to You. |
W2:251.1 | all hopes are finally fulfilled, and dreams are gone. Now have I | everything that I could need. Now have I everything that I could |
W2:251.1 | dreams are gone. Now have I everything that I could need. Now have I | everything that I could want. And now at last I find myself at peace. |
W2:259.2 | its opposite. For love can have no opposite. You are the Source of | everything that is. And everything that is remains with You and You |
W2:259.2 | can have no opposite. You are the Source of everything that is. And | everything that is remains with You and You with it. |
W2:283.1 | Heaven infinite? Is not Your Son my true Identity, when You created | everything that is? |
W2:283.2 | one in shared Identity, with God our Father as our only Source and | everything created part of us. And so we offer blessing to all |
W2:286.1 | already made. In You has every conflict been resolved. In You is | everything I hope to find already given me. Your peace is mine. My |
W2:292.1 | And He guarantees that only joy can be the final outcome found for | everything. Yet it is up to us when this is reached—how long we let |
W2:297.1 | is the only gift I give because it is the only gift I want, and | everything I give I give myself. This is salvation's simple formula. |
W2:298.2 | am grateful for Your holy gifts of certain sanctuary and escape from | everything that would obscure my love for God, my Father, and His |
W2:339.2 | a day in which I would do nothing by myself but hear Your Voice in | everything I do; requesting only what You offer me, accepting only |
W2:343.1 | The end of suffering cannot be loss. The gift of | everything can but be gain. You only give. You never take away. And |
W2:343.1 | because I am Your Son. I cannot lose, for I can only give. And | everything is mine eternally. |
W2:348.2 | God's grace suffices us in | everything that He would have us do. And only that we choose to be |
W2:E.6 | to Him. In confidence we wait His answers, as we ask His Will in | everything we do. He loves God's Son as we would love him, and He |
M:2.4 | too, made an inevitable choice out of an ancient past. God's Will in | everything but seems to take time in the working-out. What could |
M:4.20 | The time will be as right as is the answer. And this is true for | everything that happens now or in the future. The past as well held |
M:6.4 | Given by God to God, who in this holy exchange can receive less than | everything? |
M:10.3 | in advance all the effects of his judgments on everyone and | everything involved in them in any way. And one would have to be |
M:10.4 | come. He does know all the effects of His judgment on everyone and | everything involved in any way. And He is wholly fair to everyone, |
M:12.2 | a change; it is a change of mind. Nothing external alters, but | everything internal now reflects only the Love of God. God can no |
M:13.4 | Love. Who in his sane mind chooses nothing as a substitute for | everything? |
M:13.8 | decision you make must mean in terms of cost. Decide for God, and | everything is given you at no cost at all. Decide against Him, and |
M:13.8 | Him, and you choose nothing at the expense of the awareness of | everything. What would you teach? Remember only what you would learn. |
M:16.11 | but God's.” His teachers know that this is so and have learned that | everything but this is magic. All belief in magic is maintained by |
M:17.9 | not exist. The fear of God is causeless. But His love is Cause of | everything beyond all fear and thus forever real and always true. |
M:20.2 | contrast first perceived has merely gone. Quiet has reached to cover | everything. |
M:20.5 | death ends life. Forgive the world, and you will understand that | everything which God created cannot have an end, and nothing He did |

C:9.7 | pleasure and pain, violence and gentleness. A desire to know | everything but only through its own effort, a desire to see |
C:9.7 | to know everything but only through its own effort, a desire to see | everything but only through its own eyes, a desire to be known but |
C:9.26 | strive to do—is a situation set up to provide relationship. Like | everything else you have remembered of creation and made in its |
C:9.44 | proper place in our discussion here. Look at patterns of abuse, in | everything from drugs and alcohol to physical or emotional |
C:10.9 | your brother. You will stay until you realize that God has given | everything already to everyone. |
C:10.10 | but state your willingness. A willingness to believe that you have | everything you need despite the “fact” that it does not seem so. Your |
C:10.27 | aware of your surroundings, and more aware that your body is part of | everything that is happening. There is your body and six more |
C:10.27 | all the “others” traveling it with you. You will feel more a part of | everything rather than less, and be surprised by this feeling. |
C:11.9 | matter to you that it is insane to think that He who has given you | everything seeks to take anything away from you. While you still view |
C:11.9 | for others. Yes, perhaps this God you think you know has given you | everything, but He can also take it all away, and in the end He |
C:12.1 | that a benign energy had been found that proved your connection to | everything in the universe, and gave it some fancy name, you would |
C:12.11 | flow and desert sands countless in number are blown endlessly about. | Everything seems to be what it is and what it has always been, but |
C:12.24 | within it. The son could not create unlike the Father who created | everything by extension of Himself. Neither the Father's extension, |
C:14.15 | Everything that you consider valuable you want to keep. This makes | |
C:14.15 | of your world is fear. Were the foundation of your world love, | everything that you consider valuable you could not wait to share. |
C:14.16 | your effort would dissolve. This universe is yourself and you are | everything in it. Do you not believe that were you to perish |
C:14.17 | not a description of a universe? What is a universe but itself and | everything in it? Nothing would seem to exist outside of it, and so |
C:14.17 | Nothing would seem to exist outside of it, and so it must be unique. | Everything that would happen within the universe would depend upon it. |
C:14.21 | the greatest fear of all is that of loss of love. You who have given | everything to be alone and separate fear most of all that which you |
C:14.21 | to be alone and separate fear most of all that which you have given | everything to attain. For what is loss of love but confirmation of |
C:16.10 | mind would call reason—a world in which there are two sides to | everything and two sides that oppose each other. How can this be |
C:16.14 | your safety, and even if you cannot guarantee your safety against | everything all of the time, you believe you can guarantee your safety |
C:17.6 | of dreaming during the time of sleep. Some may claim they know | everything there is to know about sleep and dreaming, being married, |
C:17.7 | phenomenon, you do not. You still make your plans and rail against | everything that interferes with them, even knowing in advance that |
C:18.2 | to go from here to there, instead of enclosing and encompassing | everything. The separation assumes that you can break the chain. This |
C:18.8 | awareness now abides, seemingly trapped upon the screen, viewing | everything from the two eyes of the one projected there. Again, this |
C:19.14 | the instant they become needs, which is why there are no needs. If | everything you need has been provided, having needs makes no sense. |
C:20.47 | your view, you deem that expansion unrealistic. You cannot do | everything. You cannot effect world peace. You can barely keep your |
C:22.9 | Yet it is the passing through that creates the intersection. | Everything within your world and your day must pass through you in |
C:22.9 | you in order to gain reality. While you might think of this as | everything outside of yourself, please, when thinking of this, use |
C:22.9 | please, when thinking of this, use the words I have provided: | everything within your world. In the act of pass-through you assign |
C:22.9 | within your world. In the act of pass-through you assign meaning to | everything within your world. The meaning you assign becomes the |
C:22.10 | Further, it is the part of you through which | everything within your world passes and your awareness of it that |
C:22.10 | are much more like unto the layers of the onion than the globe, with | everything within your world needing to pass through layers with a |
C:22.16 | Imagine yourself brought to such a halt and examined apart from | everything else within your world. Anyone wanting to learn anything |
C:22.17 | You have made of yourself a laboratory where you bring | everything for examination, categorization, testing, and filing away. |
C:22.17 | and filing away. This is the scenario that separates you from | everything else within your world. Everything has meaning only |
C:22.17 | scenario that separates you from everything else within your world. | Everything has meaning only according to what it means to you and not |
C:22.20 | if you are shirking some primal responsibility to assign meaning to | everything. Rather than resisting this, strive to cease giving |
C:24.1 | weepiness and what you would term emotionalism. You may feel as if | everything makes you want to cry because everything will touch you, |
C:24.1 | You may feel as if everything makes you want to cry because | everything will touch you, each lesson will feel tender. Unlearning |
C:25.18 | you might expect to happen will happen. While you may expect that | everything will take on greater importance, the reverse will at first |
C:31.19 | to remember your Self, you need a means of learning who you are. | Everything that has ever happened in your life has happened as a |
C:31.23 | is the means through which the holy relationship you have with | everything is revealed in truth. This truth lies within everything |
C:31.23 | have with everything is revealed in truth. This truth lies within | everything that exists, as it lies within you. As you learn that who |
C:32.2 | oneness of the Trinity. The same is true of all relationship with | everything. The way in which you experience relationship with each |
T1:4.16 | and love. It is always available. It is the gift given in | everything you look upon and see without the obstacle of the |
T1:4.17 | with your own views. Others of you feel it necessary to interpret | everything on your own. Without further discussion, you would see |
T1:5.6 | A part of you is aware of this and as fearful of the all of | everything as of the void of nothing. You feel as if you are headed |
T1:5.8 | you must move into a state that is real. Nothing is as real as | everything, and is what some of you will or have experienced as a |
T2:3.1 | with the one mind and one heart, in union, in other words, with God. | Everything you have ever wanted to be is. Everything you have ever |
T2:3.1 | in other words, with God. Everything you have ever wanted to be is. | Everything you have ever thought or imagined is and is reflected in |
T2:3.2 | the place or realm of one heart and one mind. It is the place where | everything already exists fully realized. It is like a trunk full of |
T2:3.7 | that brought life into existence. The seeds of creation exist in | everything and provide for continuing creation. Thus the seeds of all |
T3:6.1 | become like unto a plague among you. While many of you see it not, | everything you do is based upon desire for reward. This is your |
T3:6.4 | of a self the ego is not. Thus has the ego had a self to blame for | everything, including your very existence. This blame is as old as |
T3:9.4 | within the universe of truth and that the universe of truth contains | everything within its benevolent embrace. No one stands beyond the |
T3:10.1 | it with meaning rather than allowing the meaning that exists in | everything to be remembered or known. Thus are more practical lessons |
T3:13.5 | laws that were made to perpetuate the idea that you must pay for | everything, or earn everything that you would care to make your own, |
T3:13.5 | to perpetuate the idea that you must pay for everything, or earn | everything that you would care to make your own, and then that you |
T3:16.12 | detriment to your new beginning. These temptations relate to | everything you fear to do because of the consequences your actions |
T4:1.25 | They are in the desperate throes of wanting to experience | everything before they allow themselves to directly experience the |
T4:2.21 | with what it brings. The power to observe what is relates to | everything that exists with you, including the days that make up your |
T4:3.4 | Original intent has | everything to do with the nature of things for original intent is |
T4:3.8 | of love, many of you will make one final judgment in which you find | everything to be good and full of love. Once all has been judged with |
T4:5.3 | of this one Source of energy, and thus this one energy existing in | everything, and creating the life in everything, is |
T4:5.3 | this one energy existing in everything, and creating the life in | everything, is Christ-consciousness. It is also what we have been |
T4:5.6 | God can thus be seen as the All of | everything and life, or the Body of Christ, as all that makes up the |
T4:5.6 | as all that makes up the seemingly individual parts of the All of | everything. Christ-consciousness is your awareness of this. |
T4:8.5 | Creation in form had a starting point. This is the nature of | everything that lives in form. It has a starting point from which it |
T4:8.14 | is synonymous with creation? You like to think that God knows | everything, and God surely knows everything that is. But |
T4:8.14 | You like to think that God knows everything, and God surely knows | everything that is. But consciousness of what is, the |
T4:8.16 | consistent with your true nature and your purpose here. To learn | everything there is to know about even one subject, and to call that |
T4:10.3 | along your self-centered path of learning, you have come to see | everything in your life as exactly what it has been—a means of |
T4:12.36 | Make no mistake that what is asked of us is | everything. What is asked is our total willingness to abandon the |
T4:12.36 | the new. But also make no mistake that what is given to us is | everything. All the power of creation is released onto us. Let us |
D:1.24 | now must come to see only as a representation of your Self. You are | everything and everyone. All that you see is you. You stand not |
D:4.12 | patterns include the observable forms that make up your world, | everything from the planet on which you exist to the stars in the |
D:4.23 | What has this to do with structure and parameters? | Everything. You cannot deny the old and remain in the prison of the |
D:5.9 | Thus must it be now with | everything in your world. Everywhere you look the lie of false |
D:5.10 | previously have thought of as inconsequential in the light of truth. | Everything given represents the truth. |
D:5.11 | You will not arrive at the truth through thinking about what | everything means. This is the old way that led to so much |
D:5.13 | for such is a desire to think through once again the meaning of | everything and to have a tool to help you do so. This would assume |
D:5.22 | call, to acceptance. See the importance of this acceptance to | everything that is still to come. Hesitate no longer. Let your |
D:6.6 | —and it is—it is not perhaps as you have previously seen it, for | everything that exists in form is of the same Source. Even those |
D:6.6 | call the seeds of the truly real, or the energy of creation, in | everything that exists in form. |
D:6.27 | The self of form, as form, could never truly experience the All of | Everything that is the natural state of the formless. But the true |
D:6.27 | the state of Christ-consciousness, sharing in unity, the All of | Everything. So these two states, the state of form and the state of |
D:7.27 | shared consciousness, the circle of unity. In truth, this circle is | everything, the All of All, the universe, God. But just as the Earth |
D:7.27 | will not always be aware of this circle of the Self as the All of | Everything, and it will, in fact, be helpful as we begin, to imagine |
D:7.29 | shared consciousness, rather than with consciousness of the All of | Everything. This territory we will call the territory of your |
D:7.29 | may be, it will still at times give way to awareness of the All of | Everything. |
D:11.11 | you are, is your thoughts—thoughts that need an explanation for | everything, and an explanation that makes sense in terms of the world |
D:12.19 | as I am not other than you. Union includes you, just as the All of | Everything, the whole of wholeness, the one of oneness, include you. |
D:13.5 | be given in a state of wholeness. You have previously learned of | everything in parts and details and particulars. While you are |
D:14.5 | Questions such as, “What might this situation look like if I forgot | everything I have previously known about similar situations, and |
D:16.11 | for these principles of creation not to be constantly occurring in | everything that lives because all that lives, lives because of |
D:Day3.13 | The idea of nothing being truly free. Not you, and not your gifts. | Everything coming with a price. Abundance comes, even to those |
D:Day4.17 | Let me assure you of what you already know, that | everything about my life was purposeful. That challenge was meant |
D:Day4.44 | this in parts. Once full access has been revealed, what is yours is | everything. But you will be different. |
D:Day5.22 | claim ownership. Effort, as translated by the ego, was about turning | everything that was given into what “you” could only work hard to |
D:Day11.6 | relationship is All because it is all that is knowable. The All of | Everything cannot be known any more than can nothingness. The All of |
D:Day11.6 | Everything cannot be known any more than can nothingness. The All of | Everything is unknowable. Thus you are the knowable of God. You are |
D:Day11.6 | of All with Its Self. Separation is as unknowable as the All of | Everything. To be separate in truth would be to not exist. To be the |
D:Day11.6 | To be separate in truth would be to not exist. To be the All of | Everything would be to not know existence. Only what exists in |
D:Day11.6 | exists in relationship knows that it exists. Thus relationship is | everything. Relationship is the truth. Relationship is consciousness. |
D:Day11.7 | man. It is the relationship that allows the awareness that God is | everything. It has been called wisdom, Sophia, spirit. It is that |
D:Day12.4 | The space of the One Self is | everything. Space is neither divided nor separated nor occupied by |
D:Day13.6 | and apparent in this boundary-less Self of form. This Self is | everything and everyone. Because it is everything and everyone it is |
D:Day13.6 | Self of form. This Self is everything and everyone. Because it is | everything and everyone it is also the self of the void, the void of |
D:Day14.1 | Self. Acceptance is necessary because escape is not possible. | Everything that is, is with us, which is why we are the accomplished |
D:Day15.1 | the dialogue. When you fully realize that you are in-formed by | everything and everyone in creation, you will have entered the |
D:Day15.2 | To inform is to make known. Thus you can be made known by | everything and everyone in creation just as everything and everyone |
D:Day15.2 | you can be made known by everything and everyone in creation just as | everything and everyone in creation can be made known by you. We have |
D:Day15.2 | you to come to know it. The unknown and the known exist together in | everything and everyone. Thus your willingness to be made known and |
D:Day15.21 | because entering the dialogue is an all-encompassing state in which | everything and everyone interacts with you through the exchange of |
D:Day16.1 | Everything that can't be seen but is, is consciousness. Accepting | |
D:Day16.1 | Everything that can't be seen but is, is consciousness. Accepting | everything that can't be seen, including the unknown, is full |
D:Day16.11 | This relates to | everything, not only your response to sickness or crisis situations, |
D:Day16.14 | thus does not include either love or fear. This is because love is | everything and fear is nothing. |
D:Day16.15 | feeling and all thought, all of which were of love because love is | everything. All feeling and all thoughts of love extended into the |
D:Day16.16 | them with love, the spacious Self will be whole, for it will embrace | everything—as love, which is everything—embraces it. This is |
D:Day16.16 | will be whole, for it will embrace everything—as love, which is | everything—embraces it. This is paradise re-found. |
D:Day17.2 | nor man but the relationship that allows the awareness that God is | everything. You have been told Christ-consciousness has also been |
D:Day17.3 | God, the All of All. God is only the all-knowing because God is in | everything and everyone. Consciousness itself is not knowing but |
D:Day18.2 | represent God and Christ-consciousness, the extension of God. God is | everything in heaven and on earth and is in everything on heaven and |
D:Day18.2 | extension of God. God is everything in heaven and on earth and is in | everything on heaven and on earth. Thus, God represents the world |
D:Day20.7 | One Self in its many expressions. You are the known and the unknown. | Everything is both the known and the unknown. |
D:Day21.6 | in union as a channel of the divine life force that exists in | everything and everyone. There is nothing channeled to one that isn't |
D:Day22.3 | another indicator of the uniqueness of channeling. The universal is | everything. The channel is what, from among everything, is allowed |
D:Day22.3 | The universal is everything. The channel is what, from among | everything, is allowed reception and expression. Some will find many |
D:Day22.8 | you awaiting your expression. Awareness of union with God exists in | everything. It is there in every tree and every flower, in every |
D:Day26.7 | It is the culmination of all that has come before, the All of | Everything realized in a single heartbeat, a single instant of |
D:Day32.18 | be the consciousness we all share? Could not God's relationship to | everything be what differentiates God from us and us from God? So |
D:Day32.19 | own? Could you see that God's power stems from His relationship to | everything rather than from His being? This is the easiest way to say |
D:Day32.20 | is powerful—in relationship. Because God is in relationship with | everything, God is All Powerful. Because you are in a state of |
D:Day33.7 | whole, and that whole is love. In other words, every relationship, | everything that comes to you, every event, every situation, is of |
D:Day33.15 | we become powerful. To realize that you are in relationship with | everything and everyone all of the time, is to realize the full |
D:Day33.15 | of your power. You cannot realize that you are in relationship with | everything and everyone all of the time and retain the desire to use |
D:Day33.15 | is impossible. The realization that you are in relationship with | everything and everyone all of the time is the realization of oneness |
D:Day34.2 | the same. In relationship, the difference between all and nothing is | everything. So too is it with creation and destruction. Without |
D:Day34.2 | In relationship, the difference between creation and destruction is | everything. |
D:Day34.3 | is needed to create difference. However, relationship with | everything creates sameness—or the very oneness in being that we |
D:Day35.1 | relationship to God, who is your being, you can know relationship to | everything, because in this one relationship, you are in relationship |
D:Day35.3 | relationship, relationship is also God. God is the relationship of | everything to everything. |
D:Day35.3 | relationship is also God. God is the relationship of everything to | everything. |
D:Day35.4 | God, that others are one with you, that God is the relationship of | everything to everything, or that you are the relationship of |
D:Day35.4 | are one with you, that God is the relationship of everything to | everything, or that you are the relationship of everything to God. |
D:Day35.4 | of everything to everything, or that you are the relationship of | everything to God. Everything that is shared with God is shared with |
D:Day35.4 | everything, or that you are the relationship of everything to God. | Everything that is shared with God is shared with all because God is |
D:Day35.4 | with God is shared with all because God is in relationship with | everything. It has been said that when you reach awareness of the |
D:Day35.5 | unaware of your being that you were not sharing the relationship of | everything with God? As long as you have known that you are a self, |
D:Day35.17 | creation is continuous and ongoing. It is continuous and ongoing in | everything that has been created, including you. This does not mean, |
D:Day35.21 | of the All of All. How can you choose when what you create is | everything? |
D:Day36.7 | When you start over, knowing that what you have been given is | everything, your creatorship of your experience is a totally |
D:Day36.10 | and nothing without relationship. In relationship, the difference is | everything. This same difference is what is meant when it is said |
D:Day36.10 | your awareness of unity and relationship, it was as if God was | everything and you were nothing, or as if you were everything and God |
D:Day36.10 | was as if God was everything and you were nothing, or as if you were | everything and God was nothing. But just as with all and nothing, |
D:Day36.11 | being—simply existing at the opposite end of the continuum of | everything that is creation. |
D:Day36.14 | or instinctively—has always been yours. The power to create— | everything from weapons of mass destruction to cathedrals of towering |
D:Day37.4 | household, in a city, in a state, in a country, in a world, wherein | everything has a separate name and purpose. In a sense, this is the |
D:Day37.9 | you want to believe that there is a compassionate being in charge of | everything, looking out for you, there to help when you are in need. |
D:Day37.14 | yourself, God, and fate to be benevolent, or you may believe that | everything, including yourself, works against you. You may rely more |
D:Day37.21 | God is being in unity and relationship with | everything. Thus God knows you. God is one in being with you because |
D:Day37.21 | you. God is one in being with you because you are one aspect of | everything. As one being in unity and relationship with everything |
D:Day37.21 | aspect of everything. As one being in unity and relationship with | everything God is one with every thought and every feeling. God is |
D:Day39.14 | the big bang, the explosion of creation. It is all at once. All of | Everything. Yet in relationship. |
D:Day39.46 | rest. But you will still know all of these. You will know the All of | Everything and the emptiness of nothing and our relationship will |
D:Day39.47 | another. We create from the field of the possible which must include | everything. |
D:Day40.13 | man. It is the relationship that allows the awareness that God is | everything. It has been called wisdom, Sophia, spirit. It is that |
D:Day40.27 | Does it become less difficult if you remember who I Am? That I Am | everything being love? This is not the same as saying you are who you |
E.10 | You can do | everything you did before, or nothing you did before, all with the |
E.11 | You will not realize that | everything has changed until you “realize” or “make real” that |
E.12 | that you have chosen nothing until and unless you realize that | everything has not changed. Let this realization come too if it must. |
E.14 | to give up this thinking will be paramount to your realization that | everything has changed or that nothing has changed. |
E.16 | into your own being. The cooperative relationship of all with | everything abides within you now. You do not, and cannot decide what |
E.23 | long, however, to overcome, for once you have begun to realize that | everything is different, you will not desire to turn back, not even |

C:1.3 | as essential to your being as the heart to the body. You would not | exist without love. It is there even if you are as unaware of it as |
C:1.3 | Self even though you do not realize that without love you would not | exist. |
C:1.4 | creating. Because of the extension of God's thought of love, you | exist. I exist with you in this selfsame thought. You do not |
C:1.4 | Because of the extension of God's thought of love, you exist. I | exist with you in this selfsame thought. You do not understand this |
C:1.15 | existence in a world apart from your Creator. This world does not | exist. And you do not exist apart from your Creator. Your yearning |
C:1.15 | apart from your Creator. This world does not exist. And you do not | exist apart from your Creator. Your yearning for love is what tells |
C:2.19 | you are what you have learned, there is no room in which the ego can | exist and, banished from the home you made for it, it slowly dies. |
C:3.2 | attempting to learn what they are. They are the same as you. All | exist within you. You are the universe itself. |
C:3.3 | disappear, or cease to be. There is no human condition that does not | exist in all humans. It is completely impossible for one to have what |
C:5.17 | outside and is illusion, for what is not one with you does not | exist. |
C:6.2 | Your brother does not | exist apart from you, nor you from your brother. This is reality. |
C:6.8 | you cannot be separate, all these factors that oppose your reality | exist only in opposition to it. This is what you chose to create when |
C:6.13 | hurry on to where the challenge of a new success and new reason to | exist awaits. The carrot of fulfillment you hold before yourself when |
C:6.14 | a choice to renounce illusion, these are the only real choices that | exist, and they do not extend into your illusions but only into |
C:6.20 | In honesty will you admit an envy, an awareness that they still | exist, but without the pain and burden of the body, without the |
C:7.16 | you when saved for yourself alone as they would be if they did not | exist. They bring you not to truth or happiness, nor can they buy you |
C:8.12 | no goal but your only reality, the natural state in which you would | exist but for your decision to reject your reality and your true |
C:8.13 | and realize the unity that is your home? Were it possible to | exist in unity and still withhold, unity would be a mockery. Who |
C:9.4 | you. In your memory of creation you have remembered that all things | exist in relationship, and that all things happen in relationship. |
C:9.12 | hold. The memories of your heart are the strongest and purest that | exist, and their remembrance will help to still your mind and reveal |
C:9.15 | easy to see that neither the desire to control nor to protect would | exist without the layer of fear that comes before it. |
C:10.3 | What you truly do not understand is wholeness. All things | exist in wholeness, including the thought system that you made to |
C:10.3 | of yourself—has no thought system separate from your own and must | exist in the reality where you think you are. |
C:10.4 | but in the eternal wholeness in which God and you together | exist in truth. |
C:10.16 | You have not been told that the body does not | exist, only that it is not you. Like all tools you made, it is |
C:11.18 | You | exist, quite simply, because of your relationship with love. Love is |
C:12.15 | What this Course is saying is that at some point that does not | exist in time, God's son made the choice for separation. Whether |
C:12.17 | many that you could never keep track of them all, and yet they still | exist within you and do not splinter off and become something on |
C:12.20 | the concept of fear, and realized that without fear they would not | exist, so too is it with the external aspect of life. Without the |
C:12.20 | original idea of separation, the external aspect of life would not | exist. Just as fear is not real although it seems to be, separation |
C:12.21 | occurring to you. Just as an idea of yours, once born, continues to | exist, so too, did this idea of separation. But just as your ideas do |
C:12.23 | He knows it not, and because He knows it not, it does not | exist. Because He knows it not, He has not been hurt by it. He knows |
C:13.12 | leveled any hurts on you or anyone else. No reason for guilt will | exist within this memory. No shame or fear is here, and no grievances |
C:14.5 | order to gain life? What creator would create a world not meant to | exist in harmony? Harmony is life. What creator would create a |
C:14.16 | be meant to be because you are, and you cannot fathom that you would | exist at all if there were not a reason for you to do so. |
C:14.17 | is a universe but itself and everything in it? Nothing would seem to | exist outside of it, and so it must be unique. Everything that would |
C:14.18 | for the maintenance of your body, because without it you would not | exist. And when you cease to exist, so does your universe. The lights |
C:14.18 | body, because without it you would not exist. And when you cease to | exist, so does your universe. The lights will be turned out upon it |
C:15.1 | world you see but reflects this desire. Love's opposite would not | exist but for your invitation of it. All hate, guilt, shame, and envy |
C:18.4 | changed the nature of the universe and made it possible for life to | exist separately and alone with no relationship, no connection, no |
C:18.8 | that cannot take you away from the internal world where you | exist in wholeness, a link in the chain of creation. Imagine again |
C:18.10 | is to alter what you experience. The state in which you now | exist was not only unbelievable but also inconceivable to you in your |
C:18.16 | where then is the mind? The center is but the Source in which all | exist as one mind. To say this to you before we loosened some of your |
C:19.1 | the whole range of experiences available to a separate being would | exist. |
C:20.2 | world, the universe, the all of all in whose embrace you literally | exist. Feel the gentleness and the love. Drink in the safety and the |
C:20.12 | We | exist in the embrace of love like the layers of light that form a |
C:20.17 | The world does not | exist apart from you, and so you must realize your compassionate |
C:20.17 | you, sharing the one heartbeat. The heartbeat of the world does not | exist apart from God. The heartbeat of the world is thus alive and |
C:20.20 | possible to have a concept of wholeness, of all, and for it not to | exist? And how could it exist apart from you? Oneness with Christ, |
C:20.20 | of wholeness, of all, and for it not to exist? And how could it | exist apart from you? Oneness with Christ, dear brother and sister, |
C:20.21 | air, the ocean and her surf, all live by the universal heartbeat and | exist within the embrace. Is not all you can imagine holy when you |
C:20.22 | exists within the embrace. How could you be less than sacred? You | exist in holiness. |
C:22.7 | examples, the partnership creates something that did not previously | exist by providing a function and a purpose for each. In the case of |
C:23.2 | it is your nature to seek for more, it is also the nature of life to | exist in relationship and to become known through relationship. This |
C:27.10 | and who God is? Is it such a huge leap to go from saying you only | exist in relationship to you only exist as relationship? You think it |
C:27.10 | leap to go from saying you only exist in relationship to you only | exist as relationship? You think it is, and feel yourself further |
C:31.35 | You do not | exist outside of relationship, just as your mind does not exist |
C:31.35 | You do not exist outside of relationship, just as your mind does not | exist outside of oneness. Your experience here is but an extension of |
T1:2.8 | often throughout A Course of Love, an alternative exists. It did not | exist when you knew not of it and so your attempts at learning have |
T1:2.10 | thoughts of your ego-mind were ruled by the nature of the body. To | exist as creatures whose only thoughts are of survival of the body is |
T1:2.10 | as creatures whose only thoughts are of survival of the body is to | exist in a lower order. The laws of the body have thus subjected you |
T1:4.6 | gifts as being given to all. This is thus a call to realize that you | exist in relationship, that your relationship calls for a response, |
T1:5.9 | that make the in-between state of the illusion in which you now | exist seem real. I must make a distinction here, between the |
T1:5.9 | Your heart as we have defined it many times within this Course, must | exist in the thought system that is real to you. The thought system |
T1:6.2 | in another way, prayer reproduces the truth and allows the truth to | exist as it is. Prayer does this because it is the act of consciously |
T1:7.2 | chosen a form, and more accurately put a “lesser” form in which to | exist, and that that choice includes the choice to suffer. This |
T1:7.2 | and on the other hand there is light. One or the other must | exist at a given time, but never both. Thus the absence of good |
T1:7.2 | does not accept that there is only one reality and that it must | exist where you are. |
T1:8.10 | serve what you would have come to be. The separated self could not | exist in separation and so created a way in which other separated |
T1:9.2 | about this union and the separation of male and female continues to | exist only in form. |
T1:9.9 | resurrect into a new form, you would also; that this new form would | exist within you; that you would become the Body of Christ and giving |
T2:2.9 | willingness is necessary. Only in your own willingness does anything | exist because only in your willingness is the power of creation |
T2:3.7 | of love that brought life into existence. The seeds of creation | exist in everything and provide for continuing creation. Thus the |
T2:3.7 | for continuing creation. Thus the seeds of all that you can express | exist “within” you, in the creation that is you. The power of |
T2:4.9 | While two sets of thoughts and feelings | exist, the only way to come to peace with them is through an |
T2:6.8 | fully accomplished within its seed and yet grows and changes, you | exist fully accomplished within the seed that is the Christ in you |
T2:6.8 | form and action of all kinds are but expressions of what already | exist within the seed of the already accomplished. |
T2:6.9 | your recognition of the state of unity. It is a recognition that you | exist in unity outside of the pattern of time. Miracles create an |
T2:6.10 | As I have already said that your heart must | exist where you think you are, you can begin to see that this change |
T2:6.10 | heart join in unity in the present, in the here and now, so that you | exist—even within form—as the only Son of God, the Christ, the |
T2:7.5 | from you. The relationship is the source of your unity. That you | exist in relationship with all is a belief that you must now |
T2:11.5 | by untruth. The truth simply exists as love exists and as you | exist. When we say something is, this is what it is of which we |
T2:11.12 | Separate things must still | exist in relationship. This is the key to understanding the truth of |
T2:11.12 | ego has put forth would have been a true image. But as life cannot | exist apart from relationship, this choice was not available and did |
T2:11.13 | as a state that exists rather than as a state that does not | exist. If you exist as a separate being but your being is contingent |
T2:11.13 | state that exists rather than as a state that does not exist. If you | exist as a separate being but your being is contingent upon |
T2:11.13 | Is this not similar to saying that a living human body does not | exist without its heart? Is not what is essential to a living body a |
T2:11.13 | While this illustration is not attempting to say that life does not | exist apart from the body, it is attempting to reveal, in an easily |
T2:11.15 | the ego is real, you will feel as if there are two identities that | exist within you and you will see yourself as doing battle in |
T2:11.15 | between Christ and the ego, but you will perceive that such battles | exist. You will be prone to calling upon the Christ as your higher |
T2:13.5 | Gratitude is the recognition of the state of grace in which you | exist here and remain forever beyond all time and the passing of all |
T2:13.5 | but is given and received in equal exchange by all who in creation | exist together in oneness eternal. |
T3:1.1 | This is the only way in which the personal self will continue to | exist following the completion and the integration of this Course. |
T3:1.6 | became an ego-self or an unreal self. An unreal self cannot help but | exist in an unreal reality. It is as if you have been an actor upon a |
T3:1.8 | this is the only way in which the personal self will now continue to | exist. This statement implies and acknowledges your previous belief |
T3:1.10 | To say that the personal self will now | exist only as the self you present to others is to say that the |
T3:2.1 | What purpose would it seem to serve to have anything | exist only as a representation? We might think of this in terms of |
T3:3.7 | new thought system must be wholehearted. They cannot be beliefs that | exist only in your mind, a new philosophy to be applied to life. They |
T3:3.7 | only in your mind, a new philosophy to be applied to life. They must | exist in your heart. And how can they exist in the heart of an |
T3:3.7 | be applied to life. They must exist in your heart. And how can they | exist in the heart of an unlovable self? |
T3:5.1 | While you have just been told that you now | exist in a state of emptiness, this is not a state to be feared. Yet |
T3:6.4 | is as old as time itself and the cause of bitterness being able to | exist, even within your hearts. |
T3:6.5 | While the untrue cannot | exist with the true, what I am calling here bitterness is all that |
T3:6.6 | the bitter herbs of scripture illustrated. Many rights and rituals | exist for the purification of the unclean but I assure you that you |
T3:9.1 | It is an idea that says all that love would not create does not | exist. It is an idea that says that if you live from love and within |
T3:9.3 | Ideas of love, or the truth, are joined in unity and | exist in relationship. All of the ideas within the house of illusion |
T3:10.16 | of illusion still exists, you will continue to encounter those who | exist within it. While you continue to encounter those who exist in |
T3:10.16 | those who exist within it. While you continue to encounter those who | exist in the house of illusion you will continue to encounter |
T3:11.1 | is an illusionary self. This could be further stated as those who | exist in the house of illusion are aware of the personal self alone |
T3:11.10 | those living in illusion or their reality. Their reality does not | exist. Believing in the reality of illusion will never make it the |
T3:11.12 | think of yourself as different than your brothers and sisters. All | exist in the House of Truth. The house of illusion exists within the |
T3:11.15 | of course, continue to be aware that very few realize that they | exist in the House of Truth. You will, in truth, for quite some time, |
T3:12.2 | You | exist within the time of consciousness of the personal self. Thus we |
T3:12.2 | time, they are eternal, eternal levels of consciousness that still | exist and have always existed. |
T3:12.3 | Temptations of the human experience | exist only in time. What we are about to do is move the human |
T3:12.5 | already been stated, in order to remove the limits that continue to | exist, we must remove all time-bound temptations. |
T3:12.7 | even dared to dream of is a state in which only God's laws of love | exist even within the realm of physicality. What this means is that |
T3:13.1 | and our new purpose, that of the miracle that will allow you to | exist as who you are in human form, we may proceed unencumbered by |
T3:14.1 | from the new thought system. The new thought system will still | exist within your mind and heart, as nothing can now take this memory |
T3:16.15 | behind you is the idea of the holy relationship in which all | exist in unity and within the protection of love's embrace. If you |
T3:17.1 | but there was a need for the Self to have an observable form and to | exist in relationship with others with observable forms. This was |
T3:17.3 | As soon as spirit took on form, man began to | exist in time because there became a need for a beginning and an |
T3:17.5 | of untruth in the mechanism of time, to the world in which you now | exist. It may seem ridiculous to say that the untrue can be learned, |
T3:18.3 | to serve our new purpose of the miracle that will allow you to | exist as who you are in human form. See what perfect sense this makes |
T3:19.12 | beliefs and ideas led to the old reality, a reality that will still | exist for some even after it changes completely for you. |
T3:20.1 | Illusion has at its base a false cause and so no effects that | exist in truth. Now, your every thought and action will have effect, |
T3:21.5 | Your real Self exists in truth. It does not | exist in illusion. |
T3:21.7 | The only means for the personal self and the true Self to | exist together is for the truth to be lived in time. In order for the |
T3:21.11 | to certainty as you have been capable, simply because you could not | exist without an identity. You might think of this as being certain |
T3:21.15 | interconnection of these ideas you hold about yourself or not, they | exist. Your world-view, and your view of your personal self, are |
T3:21.17 | Even while your belief system has changed and you believe that you | exist in unity, all the things we have enumerated above will act to |
T3:21.18 | of this Treatise is complete, the personal self will continue to | exist only as the self you present to others. It will be a |
T3:21.19 | our new purpose, the purpose of the miracle that will allow you to | exist as who you are in human form. How, you might rightly ask, can |
T3:22.13 | what is into existence. You believe that what does not appear to | exist with you in the here and now is not, and place it in a separate |
T4:1.28 | This is the truth of the state of the world in which you | exist today. |
T4:2.7 | not become aware of their true nature does not mean that it did not | exist; that there are others living among you in this time who will |
T4:2.7 | not become aware of their true nature does not mean that it does not | exist within them. You are no more accomplished than anyone has been |
T4:2.28 | of consciousness we are calling Christ-consciousness, allowed me to | exist in union and relationship with all, I could see my brothers and |
T4:2.30 | relation to the whole. You are beginning to see the connections that | exist and this is the beginning. |
T4:2.32 | first and foremost of revelation. It is believing that you | exist in relationship and union with all, and that each encounter is |
T4:2.32 | and purpose—purpose that will be revealed to you because you | exist in union with the Source and Cause of revelation. |
T4:3.6 | of being. Both states of being—the natural and the unnatural— | exist in relationship. While relationship is what has kept you |
T4:3.12 | be. There is a reason why the original nature of your being cannot | exist in a form unnatural to love. A form whose nature is fear cannot |
T4:4.16 | of the personal self with the true Self in the reality in which you | exist now. Remember, the heart must abide in the reality where you |
T4:4.16 | mind's acceptance of your new reality has the heart been freed to | exist in the new reality that is the state of unity and relationship. |
T4:5.2 | are God's harmony, God's expression, God's melody. You, and all that | exist with you, form the orchestra and chorus of creation. You might |
T4:5.4 | for your body to live, this one Energy had to enter your form and | exist where you think you are. This is the Energy of Love, the Energy |
T4:5.5 | you and It surrounds and It encompasses you. It is you and all who | exist with you. It is the body of Christ. It is like unto what the |
T4:6.7 | one truth of God's law of love, can find many expressions. You can | exist in Christ-consciousness, as have many others of the past, and |
T4:6.8 | You have the unequalled opportunity now, because you | exist in the Time of Christ, to directly share Christ-consciousness |
T4:7.5 | to you through a heart and mind joined in unity, your body too will | exist or abide within this natural state. It cannot help to, as it, |
T4:7.6 | body have joined in alignment to bring this learning about. They now | exist in harmony. Your mind and heart in union have brought harmony |
T4:11.3 | need only for the sustainability of Christ-consciousness in which we | exist together as creators in unity and relationship. |
T4:12.12 | of learning for you to move on to. There is no reason for you not to | exist in continual contentment. Continual contentment will not stunt |
T4:12.24 | You now | exist within a shared consciousness. The pattern of a shared |
T4:12.33 | before us. Because you are a being still existing in form, you still | exist in the realm of time and space. Yet time and space no longer |
D:1.15 | These Dialogues are for everyone because we | exist in unity with everyone. No one will be forced to join our |
D:1.27 | what can only be received in the love and unity in which we truly | exist together, as one body, one Christ, one Self. |
D:2.22 | Within is where the real world and all your brothers and sisters | exist in the unity of Christ-consciousness. Change within effects |
D:4.12 | that make up your world, everything from the planet on which you | exist to the stars in the sky, from the body you seem to inhabit to |
D:4.13 | patterns, the internal and the external, were created together to | exist in a complementary fashion. Both of these divine patterns are |
D:5.11 | of the truth, returns you to the reality of the truth where you | exist in oneness. |
D:5.12 | and the loving patterns given in the time of learning are all that | exist in all you see. But what now will become of these patterns that |
D:5.20 | of your environment, your mind, and time as a prison, how can it | exist in perfect harmony with the universe? As you can see, you are |
D:6.6 | nothing. There is not one thing that you have made that does not | exist as some variation of what was originally created. Because, and |
D:6.11 | your ideas about the body and the systems of the world in which you | exist. If you are no longer living in an “if this, then that” world, |
D:6.12 | of relationships, relationships without end, relationships that | exist in harmony and cooperation. This is a harmony and cooperation |
D:6.26 | Now that your Self has joined the elevated Self of form, you | exist together both in time and outside of time. Remember, the |
D:7.7 | a particular time in history. Now you are called to discover how to | exist in form without being defined by this time-bound particularity. |
D:7.8 | it as “bound” by the particularity of time and space. It may still | exist in a particular time and place, but this is simply the nature |
D:7.18 | of creation, because they are related to particular forms as they | exist in time. Time is not an aspect of eternity or of unity. Time is |
D:7.27 | and space. It is not a circle that can be drawn around where you | exist so as to define, perhaps, a mile of space and say that this is |
D:9.12 | learning, ideas are also discoveries that you make, discoveries that | exist apart from learning. Ideas “come to you.” They are given and |
D:9.14 | the dot of the body; and if you accept that these ideas that already | exist were able to pass through you in order to gain expression in |
D:12.1 | through which thought can enter your mind. You believe thoughts | exist in your mind and are themselves the product of your brain, |
D:14.9 | that naturally extend from the state of unity in which all | exist along with you, was advanced by the idea of acceptance you took |
D:16.2 | to join with the accomplishment and wholeness that already | exist in unity. Creation occurs in each of us, seemingly one at a |
D:16.9 | movement, being, and expression. You can choose, in other words, to | exist without allowing spirit to move you, without allowing yourself |
D:16.9 | self-expression. You might think that you can be simply because you | exist and that as long as you exist in form you are being because you |
D:16.9 | that you can be simply because you exist and that as long as you | exist in form you are being because you are being something. You are |
D:16.15 | and the time of being the elevated Self of form; that times still | exist in which you are not wholly present as who you are. |
D:Day1.14 | I not called you to a new time in which the conditions of learning | exist no more? In which the suffering and death that have obscured |
D:Day3.41 | is the idea of a responsive relationship with unity that does not | exist only within the mind of the wholehearted. |
D:Day4.46 | the individual is gone, and the self of union all that continues to | exist. It will mean peace, certainty, safety, and joy with no price. |
D:Day6.21 | to know what to look for, they would find it. It is being created to | exist both within the body and beyond the body. It is, in truth, the |
D:Day7.7 | into nothingness. Time is replaced by presence, by your ability to | exist in the here and now in acceptance and without fear. |
D:Day7.8 | those I have yet to speak of, are also in an in-between state. They | exist along with the new you. They exist in acceptance and union. |
D:Day7.8 | also in an in-between state. They exist along with the new you. They | exist in acceptance and union. They do not exist in learning and |
D:Day7.8 | with the new you. They exist in acceptance and union. They do not | exist in learning and separation. They exist in love. They do not |
D:Day7.8 | and union. They do not exist in learning and separation. They | exist in love. They do not exist in fear. As with |
D:Day7.8 | exist in learning and separation. They exist in love. They do not | exist in fear. As with Christ-consciousness, you are moving from a |
D:Day11.2 | through a seeming separation from the oneness in which we | exist. This is the great paradox that unites the world of form and |
D:Day11.6 | as the All of Everything. To be separate in truth would be to not | exist. To be the All of Everything would be to not know existence. |
D:Day13.6 | the void of the loveless self exists within the spacious Self, they | exist in harmony. It is only in attempting to eject the loveless self |
D:Day13.7 | ineffective. It is only in this way that you realize that all | exist within. It is only in this way that you become completely |
D:Day14.6 | your power. Your power is the power of the many and the one that | exist in wholeness within the spacious Self. |
D:Day15.2 | it in order for you to come to know it. The unknown and the known | exist together in everything and everyone. Thus your willingness to |
D:Day16.4 | is not sickness but rejected feelings. The rejected feelings | exist as separate and forgotten physical manifestations until they |
D:Day16.16 | The expelled feelings that seemed to cause this duality still | exist in consciousness. Once these expelled feelings are returned to |
D:Day17.4 | simple awareness to knowing. You have always been aware that you | exist and always been in search of an answer as to why you exist. You |
D:Day17.4 | that you exist and always been in search of an answer as to why you | exist. You have always been aware of the world around you and always |
D:Day18.9 | for a functioning body, mind and heart in separation could not truly | exist and allow for a functioning state of life or consciousness. |
D:Day21.7 | of giving and receiving as one. No intermediary is needed when you | exist in union. It is recognized that the knowledge, wisdom, |
D:Day22.7 | would bring this state into existence in the reality in which you | exist. |
D:Day24.2 | It is as natural to you as it is to all of creation. It does not | exist only once potential is realized or made manifest, but always in |
D:Day27.9 | Looking in another, you might see the dawning of light. Opposites | exist only as different aspects of one whole. Different aspects exist |
D:Day27.9 | exist only as different aspects of one whole. Different aspects | exist only as different levels of experience. |
D:Day27.16 | the experience of the separate self, have always been variables that | exist within the constant of wholeness. What you have experienced, |
D:Day28.17 | Thought patterns | exist within thought systems that have been externalized and are part |
D:Day29.3 | wholeness—to who you truly are—in the reality in which you truly | exist. |
D:Day29.4 | bringing forward what already exists into the reality in which you | exist. Another way of saying this is bringing who you are into |
D:Day30.2 | to be found, more than one (fraction, part, or variable) must | exist. The purpose of finding a common denominator is to translate |
D:Day30.3 | fractious are the separate selves, commonality and wholeness always | exist and have always existed. |
D:Day30.4 | or more are needed in order for wholeness to be known and thus to | exist as a state of conscious awareness. |

D:Day6.2 | if you have truly taken leave of the everyday world of your “normal” | existence and feel fully present on the holy mountain. This is not a |
D:Day11.6 | be to not exist. To be the All of Everything would be to not know | existence. Only what exists in relationship knows that it exists. |
D:Day11.7 | Christ-consciousness is the awareness of | existence through relationship. It is not God. It is not man. It is |
D:Day17.1 | story. We have spoken of Christ-consciousness as the awareness of | existence through relationship. We have spoken of life-consciousness |
D:Day19.9 | nor isolated, nor confined to a specific community. It is a way of | existence in which relationship is paramount. It is not listening to |
D:Day22.7 | an aware and conscious state, that you would bring this state into | existence in the reality in which you exist. |
D:Day24.2 | exists in every cell, in each of every smallest particle of | existence. Wholeness exists in you. Nothing can take wholeness from |
D:Day29.4 | which can be interpreted both as bringing all that you are into | existence and as bringing all that you are into existence in union. |
D:Day29.4 | that you are into existence and as bringing all that you are into | existence in union. |

D:Day30.3 | stating simply the existence of what was named or denominated. | Existence and wholeness are the same. Thus your existence, the |
D:Day30.3 | or denominated. Existence and wholeness are the same. Thus your | existence, the existence of the self, is, or can be, a common |
D:Day30.3 | Existence and wholeness are the same. Thus your existence, the | existence of the self, is, or can be, a common denominator of |
D:Day35.5 | that you are a self, as long as you have been aware of your own | existence, you have been aware of God. Your awareness of Self is God. |
D:Day36.2 | This was the way in which you created your experience of a separate | existence. |
D:Day36.12 | What we have called illusion is this simple nothingness of | existence without relationship to God, and thus existence without |
D:Day36.12 | nothingness of existence without relationship to God, and thus | existence without relationship to the power of creation. The illusion |

T4:3.6 | being that is joyful, effortless, and full of love. For every being | existing in time there is also an unnatural state of being. Both |

D:7.1 | Just as when you were a being | existing in the shared consciousness of unity you couldn't know what |
D:7.7 | You have been told that you are time-bound only as a particular self, | existing as man or woman in a particular time in history. Now you are |
D:7.27 | be seen as your home, although you are rarely consciously aware of | existing in this “larger” home, you will not always be aware of this |
D:8.7 | like the home in which you reside, the idea that you have an already | existing awareness of the Source of unity beyond the body will |
D:15.10 | work of creation? Would this not even be consistent with spirit | existing in every living form from the beginning of time until the |
D:16.9 | apart from Love, apart from Creation, you cannot. But you can, while | existing in time and form, choose to stand apart from movement, |
D:Day4.23 | your identity. You needed to first know yourself as a being | existing in union before you could know anything else with the |
D:Day4.47 | The old challenges, the old reasons for | existing will be gone. All that will be left to do will be the |
D:Day10.11 | It works for you in that you do not have to resist and reject an | existing trust as you do with the thoughts of the mind you call |

D:Day19.16 | Thus it is realistic to see the two ways as intertwined circles | existing in support and harmony with one another. As those given |
D:Day21.2 | to learn, the source of wisdom, even though you may have seen it as | existing outside of yourself, had to function as what it was—a |

C:5.5 | Relationship | exists apart from particulars. This is what you can't conceive of and |
C:5.5 | the specific details or forms of your world. You think relationship | exists between one body and another, and while you think this is so, |
C:5.6 | Relationship is what | exists between one thing and another. It is not one thing or another |
C:5.6 | separate, a third something. You realize that a relationship | exists between your hand and a pencil when you go to write something |
C:5.6 | you take so completely for granted that you have forgotten that it | exists. All truth lies in relationship, even one so simple as this. |
C:5.6 | is a statement that describes the truly real, the only reality that | exists. It is the joining that is real and that causes all creation |

C:5.22 | wanting to believe all effort is in vain or that a simple solution | exists. A simple solution within your world, a solution that requires |
C:6.1 | so. You have to forgive yourself for being what you are, a being who | exists only in relationship. You have to forgive all others for being |
C:6.2 | that is the center of your being is the center of everything that | exists. This is reality. None of these things make you less than what |
C:6.8 | Spirit. Contrast demonstrates only to reveal the relationship that | exists between truth and illusion. When you chose to deny |
C:7.17 | or one that is specific and not generalizable. All relationship | exists in wholeness. The small examples used earlier were meant to |
C:7.20 | from this center that you will come to understand that relationship | exists in wholeness. We have begun to dislodge your idea that you |
C:7.22 | toss it to the wind and ask for an alternative. An alternative | exists. Not in dreams of fantasy but in truth. Not in changing form |
C:8.10 | recognition that something other than what appears on the surface | exists. |
C:9.13 | definition of your entire problem: You do not allow anything that | exists in your world, including yourself, to be what it is. |
C:9.21 | hungry and you prepare a feast for him fit to serve a king. This one | exists in the violence you would keep outside your doors, and from |
C:10.2 | never really ceased to be, but as long as you do not realize that it | exists its benefits are unavailable to you. As much as I would like |
C:10.6 | be ready, just as having lost something does not mean it no longer | exists. Yet your separated self would cite all evidence of its |
C:12.12 | day and in a lovely place you can see that creation's paradise still | exists, but nowhere can you find the being God created in His image. |
C:13.8 | that are your own, memories that are of your own Self. For no spirit | exists that is not part of you, or you of it. If you find yourself |
C:14.7 | reason try to fit the unfitable without seeing that an alternative | exists. |
C:14.18 | and if it depends on you that it is you? Only what you are aware of | exists in the universe that is you. Only what happens to you affects |
C:14.21 | to fear, and those who would not, would still believe that love | exists despite fear's claim upon it, and think that they are lucky to |
C:17.3 | And yet you know you cannot claim that you are aware of all that | exists within the universe, or even that you fully know your own |
C:18.14 | Once an idea is born, it | exists in relationship to its creator. All that remains now is a |
C:19.4 | self lies the world that was created for your learning, and that so | exists in truth. It is not the only world by any means, but it is |
C:19.17 | any other number. Yet, on the other hand, when only one of anything | exists it is highly prized. God is thus “God” due, at least in part, |
C:19.24 | The Holy Spirit | exists in your right mind, and is the bridge to exchanging perception |
C:20.12 | all beginnings, the kernel and the wholeness of all life. The whole | exists untroubled by what it will be. It is. |
C:20.19 | Are your tears not shed for what lives and breathes and | exists along with you? And is the you who shed such tears a personal |
C:20.22 | Sanctity is all that | exists within the embrace. How could you be less than sacred? You |
C:20.30 | or uniformity. You are a unique expression of the selfsame love that | exists in all creation. Thus your expression of love is as unique as |
C:20.48 | thought. It is not wisdom but the truth. The truth is that which | exists. The false is illusion. Love is all that matters because love |
C:21.2 | existing apart from particulars. I repeat that relationship | exists between one thing and another and that it is in the |
C:21.8 | easy to see in extreme circumstances, but it is a situation that | exists constantly and in every instance until unity is achieved. |
C:22.13 | illness, or accidents, while in the “beyond meaning” category | exists the relationship that broke your heart, grief, poverty, war, |
C:22.23 | will allow you to see your “self” as an integral part of all that | exists within your world rather than as the small and insignificant |
C:27.8 | know God through relationship. Christ is the holy relationship that | exists between all and God, providing the bridge that spans the very |
C:27.10 | relationship rather than singular objects and bodies, as all that | exists, and thus who you are and who God is? Is it such a huge leap |
C:29.16 | this manner of functioning, but it did not create it. Life | exists in service to itself. This could also be stated thus: Life |
C:29.16 | exists in service to itself. This could also be stated thus: Life | exists in relationship. Relationship is the interaction within which |
C:29.17 | The universe | exists in reciprocal relationship or holy relationship, rather than |
C:29.20 | wholehearted, for it is in wholeheartedness that the power of choice | exists. A split mind and heart can prevent you from utilizing the |
C:29.24 | with God achieve the state of unity. Only the state of unity | exists. |
C:29.27 | No chance to learn or grow is ever missed. Each still | exists, though not in time. Each still exists, but in the present. |
C:29.27 | is ever missed. Each still exists, though not in time. Each still | exists, but in the present. Can you replace your attention to the |
C:31.23 | is revealed in truth. This truth lies within everything that | exists, as it lies within you. As you learn that who you are is love, |
C:32.2 | all the rest that the difference you so prize as your uniqueness | exists. And only there. Only in relationship are you uniquely you. |
C:32.2 | there. Only in relationship are you uniquely you. Only relationship | exists. For Love is relationship. |
T1:2.8 | as was stated often throughout A Course of Love, an alternative | exists. It did not exist when you knew not of it and so your attempts |
T1:3.3 | order. Because of all of this, it cannot experience the truth and so | exists in illusion. |
T1:4.9 | of God. Your thoughts are released from their concentration on what | exists outside of you as your responsibility is placed where it |
T1:4.19 | feelings has given them their meaning—think again. Their meaning | exists already and is not up to you to determine. This is not your |
T1:7.2 | peace in relation to chaos, love in relation to fear. This belief | exists in the in-between, where on the one hand there is darkness, |
T1:8.5 | it returned me to you in the form of the resurrected Christ who | exists in all of you, bringing resurrection even unto your forms. I |
T1:9.6 | something does not come from nothing and that nothing is all that | exists without relationship. |
T1:10.8 | many references that have been made to God not seeing suffering. God | exists with you in peace. When you feel peace, you feel the Peace of |
T2:1.3 | the first sense is, first and foremost, something that you believe | exists and have defined as being of value. As this Treatise is not |
T2:1.13 | put a brush to a canvas. But it does mean that the treasure | exists without these “things” and that the treasure is already a |
T2:3.1 | life is already an act of creation. It was created. All of it. It | exists, fully realized within you. Your work here is to express it. |
T2:3.2 | desire for expression. Life is the desire to express outwardly what | exists within. What I refer to so often here as being within, as if |
T2:3.2 | of one heart and one mind. It is the place where everything already | exists fully realized. It is like a trunk full of treasure. Like a |
T2:3.3 | Your mind | exists in unity. Your heart exists where you think you are, thus |
T2:3.3 | Your mind exists in unity. Your heart | exists where you think you are, thus providing the means for union |
T2:3.7 | easier to explain. If the ability to create beautiful music already | exists within you, you do not have to learn what beautiful music is, |
T2:5.7 | that dependency is a matter of the interdependency of all that | exists in relationship. Thus, all the calls that come to you in the |
T2:6.6 | you will be someone other than who you are in the present. Unity | exists only in the here and now of the present. There is no will be |
T2:6.8 | of what is already accomplished that needs adjustment now. As a tree | exists fully accomplished within its seed and yet grows and changes, |
T2:6.9 | reality outside of the pattern of ordinary time. Although this state | exists as the already accomplished, it is up to you to create it for |
T2:7.14 | includes accepting that you have needs. That you are a being who | exists in relationship is the same as saying you are a being who |
T2:9.14 | to arrive. As has already been said, you have arrived and rest | exists only in the state of unity. |
T2:10.10 | back to your united mind and heart. This is the knowing that already | exists, the memory that is swatted away by the ego. |
T2:10.13 | by ending the separated state which is the state in which the ego | exists. The end of the separated state or the ego, is the beginning |
T2:11.1 | were told within the pages of A Course of Love, you are a being who | exists in relationship. This is how you were created and how you |
T2:11.1 | is to show you how to integrate the belief that you are a being who | exists in relationship into the living of your life. |
T2:11.5 | protection. The truth is not threatened by untruth. The truth simply | exists as love exists and as you exist. When we say something is, |
T2:11.5 | truth is not threatened by untruth. The truth simply exists as love | exists and as you exist. When we say something is, this is what it is |
T2:11.7 | in unity that is inherent in the acceptance that you are a being who | exists in relationship. Separation is all that opposes relationship, |
T2:11.12 | existence of relationship and it is in relationship that union still | exists. If you had been able to choose separation without |
T2:11.13 | separation in a new way. Let us speak of separation as a state that | exists rather than as a state that does not exist. If you exist as a |
T2:11.13 | is this not the same thing as saying that you are a being who | exists in relationship? Is this not similar to saying that a living |
T2:11.16 | An alternative to this insanity | exists. The alternative is removing all faith from your belief in the |
T2:12.8 | being, are not called upon to also call forth the treasure that | exists around you? When you call to those whom you meet in |
T2:12.10 | cultivates her garden. The gardener knows that although the plant | exists fully realized within its seed, it also needs the relationship |
T2:12.12 | This cultivation then, of the all-encompassing holy relationship that | exists within you and without you, both in all you are and all you |
T3:1.1 | The personal self | exists as the self you present to others. This is the only way in |
T3:1.8 | I began this Treatise by saying that the personal self | exists as the self you present to others and that this is the only |
T3:2.5 | beliefs have shaped your dualistic view of the world and all that | exists with you within it. For every “glory,” gift, or success you |
T3:6.3 | reward given in another, is the cause of much of the bitterness that | exists within your hearts. |
T3:6.5 | abode of Christ, this bridge between the human and the divine. It | exists not in some but in all, as the ego has existed not in some but |
T3:10.1 | to encounter the truth, you must realize that while meaninglessness | exists within your mind, you will be working still to replace it with |
T3:10.1 | to replace it with meaning rather than allowing the meaning that | exists in everything to be remembered or known. Thus are more |
T3:10.15 | because they will realize that the memory of this language | exists within them as well. It will come naturally to you to welcome |
T3:10.16 | among those in human form. While the house of illusion still | exists, you will continue to encounter those who exist within it. |
T3:11.1 | of the self but are unaware that the self of illusion, the self that | exists in illusion, is an illusionary self. This could be further |
T3:11.9 | learning is no longer that the Kingdom of God or the House of Truth | exists, but how to live within it. The question of how to live within |
T3:11.12 | and sisters. All exist in the House of Truth. The house of illusion | exists within the House of Truth because it is where your brothers |
T3:11.12 | chosen heaven. Choice and the awareness of the power of choice that | exists within is all that differentiates one from the other. |
T3:12.9 | and strife only because the physical or personal self forgot that it | exists in relationship and believed itself to be separate and alone. |
T3:15.11 | The Good News is that you have no need to learn the truth. The truth | exists within you and you are now aware of its reality. |
T3:18.10 | and happiness. You can observe this within yourself because it | exists within your Self. What exists within you is shared by all. |
T3:18.10 | this within yourself because it exists within your Self. What | exists within you is shared by all. This is the relationship of the |
T3:21.5 | Your real Self | exists in truth. It does not exist in illusion. |
T3:21.6 | Your personal self | exists in illusion. It is called a personal self because it is |
T3:21.17 | of your personal self. As your true identity is that of a Self who | exists in unity and the identity of your personal self is that of a |
T3:21.17 | unity and the identity of your personal self is that of a self who | exists in separation, this would seem impossible. Even while your |
T3:21.23 | said that anyone should, or will, remain blind to the unity that | exists beyond all barriers of seeming differences such as those of |
T3:22.12 | now to what I spoke of earlier as creative tension, the tension that | exists between accepting what is and desiring what will be. Linking |
T3:22.12 | dualistic world in which you have lived, a world wherein a lag time | exists between what is and what will be. You may have, upon reading |
T3:22.13 | is not, and place it in a separate category, a category that only | exists in the dualistic world of illusion where here and now is |

T4:1.16 | for blame exists. No cause to look back exists at all, for the truth | exists in the present. This is the same as saying the truth exists |
T4:1.16 | truth exists in the present. This is the same as saying the truth | exists within you. It is in this way that time is not real and will |
T4:2.21 | it brings. The power to observe what is relates to everything that | exists with you, including the days that make up your life in time |
T4:2.23 | A Course of Love as your inability to realize the relationship that | exists with the unseen and even the seen. You have moved through life |
T4:2.25 | point of what I have revealed to you. A new relationship now | exists between the physical and spiritual. It is not an indirect |
T4:2.25 | It is not an indirect relationship but a direct relationship. It | exists and you are becoming aware of its existence. You will |
T4:3.10 | Vision will allow you to see the nature of the world and all that | exists within it truly. Observation will allow you to elevate the |
T4:3.13 | and at the same time to hang on to life; not realizing that what | exists in form does not have to be separate and alone; not realizing |
T4:5.3 | expressions in form. The same life-force courses through all that | exists in matter in the form of this energy. Awareness of this one |
T4:5.4 | that is known as God. Since you are clearly alive, this Energy | exists within you as it exists in all else that lives. It is one |
T4:5.4 | Since you are clearly alive, this Energy exists within you as it | exists in all else that lives. It is one Energy endlessly able to |
T4:5.5 | been created. You are the substance of the universe. The same energy | exists in the stars of the heavens and the waters of the ocean that |
T4:5.5 | exists in the stars of the heavens and the waters of the ocean that | exists in you. This energy is the form and content of the embrace. It |
T4:5.5 | like unto what the water of the ocean is to the living matter that | exists within it. The living matter that exists within the ocean has |
T4:5.5 | to the living matter that exists within it. The living matter that | exists within the ocean has no need to search for God. It lives in |
T4:7.5 | this natural state. It cannot help to, as it, just like your heart, | exists in the state or reality in which you think you are. The only |
T4:12.8 | of the non-intermediary nature of this dialogue is that it | exists in unity. It is given and received in unity. Intermediary |
D:1.23 | This is akin to thinking of a god who | exists outside or apart from yourself. If you fully accepted your |
D:3.12 | source, thus giving and receiving is an idea, as are all ideas, that | exists apart from form. Giving and receiving are thus one within the |
D:3.17 | “other” than your Self rather than seeking the awareness that | exists within. |
D:3.19 | It is this difference that | exists between the Self and the elevated Self of form that makes of |
D:3.19 | within this Course as unique expressions of the selfsame love that | exists in all. |
D:3.21 | aware of the truth of giving and receiving being one. This awareness | exists within you and you cannot any longer claim to be unaware of it |
D:4.11 | believe in a divine design without accepting that a divine design | exists and that you are part of it. Remember that our goal here is to |
D:4.11 | asked to accept is that existence is purposeful, that the universe | exists in divine order, and that your life is part of that divine |
D:4.12 | from the body you seem to inhabit to the animal and plant life that | exists around you. From the daintiest and most intricately laced |
D:4.14 | upon which how you live arises. The truth is a system of thought. It | exists in wholeness and has always been available. |
D:5.21 | that seems inconsistent with your being, while still in a form that | exists within a form, within a world that seems inconsistent with |
D:6.6 | body, as all else you see among the living, is, in fact, living. It | exists as living form. And so we begin with a distinction between |
D:6.6 | as living form. And so we begin with a distinction between what | exists as living form, and what exists as inanimate or non-living |
D:6.6 | with a distinction between what exists as living form, and what | exists as inanimate or non-living form. While you might think this is |
D:6.6 | is not perhaps as you have previously seen it, for everything that | exists in form is of the same Source. Even those things you have made |
D:6.6 | of the truly real, or the energy of creation, in everything that | exists in form. |
D:6.27 | The elevated Self of form, however, being a form that still | exists in time, must realize the consciousness of the true Self in |
D:7.5 | of unity and places you outside of time. In this state, no duality | exists. Doing and being are one. |
D:7.8 | nature of one aspect of what you are. The nature of form is that it | exists as matter, it occupies space and is perceptible to the senses. |
D:7.18 | eternity or of unity. Time is thus what has separated the self that | exists in form from the Self that exists in union or the state of |
D:7.18 | what has separated the self that exists in form from the Self that | exists in union or the state of Christ-consciousness. By becoming one |
D:7.26 | now as you begin to imagine the “more” that you are, the “more” that | exists beyond the body's boundary and beyond the boundary of time and |
D:7.27 | a mile of space and say that this is all you. No, the circle that | exists around you is the circle of shared consciousness, the circle |
D:7.29 | who live and work nearby. This territory of conscious awareness | exists within the larger consciousness of unity, just as the |
D:7.29 | larger consciousness of unity, just as the territory of your body | exists within the larger territory of the planet Earth. We will begin |
D:8.5 | this as an idea is to imagine this “given” Self as the Self that | exists beyond the boundary we have described as the dot of the body. |
D:9.12 | as a cause for talent, but what is heredity but that which already | exists within you? So too is it with an idea. An idea already exists |
D:9.12 | exists within you? So too is it with an idea. An idea already | exists within you, but is awaiting its birth through you. |
D:9.13 | now come to see your form; it is that through which what already | exists, what is already accomplished, comes or passes through by |
D:10.4 | of unity, your expression of these givens, since that expression | exists in the realm of time and space and involves the work and time |
D:10.4 | realize that the bringing forth of the accomplishment that already | exists in unity is your new work, the work of the Self of union, the |
D:12.13 | and unusual as it may sound, that this access and entryway already | exists within you, and that you have already benefited from moments |
D:13.6 | you can come to understand it. What comes of union is a knowing that | exists in relationship. Once you have attained a state of being able |
D:16.15 | To realize the state of becoming is to realize that an in-between | exists between the time of learning and the time of being the |
D:Day3.39 | felt the reality of union, you have felt the place in which no want | exists. You felt this through the responsiveness of the relationship |
D:Day4.13 | You have been told that in unity a “place” | exists that is your natural state, a state free from want, a state |
D:Day4.13 | from learning, a state free from death. To be told that such a place | exists is no more comforting than consoling words if you do not feel |
D:Day4.26 | is both access and the place to which you desire access. As all that | exists in truth, union is means and end. |
D:Day4.27 | To know the basic truth of who you are—that you are a being who | exists in unity rather than in separation—is thus the first step to |
D:Day4.27 | And learning is not the way to the access that you seek. As all that | exists in truth, the truth of who you are is means and end as well. |
D:Day4.30 | of its training. Thus, a major key to your discovery of all that | exists within you in the state of unity, is an end to thinking as you |
D:Day4.32 | Access simply | exists within your natural state, much like breathing is simply a |
D:Day4.35 | this portal to all that lies beyond time and space, to all that | exists in the place of unity. |
D:Day4.40 | back at form and matter? Or do you turn and look up where no form | exists? Do you believe you can choose the formless and still return |
D:Day5.8 | Thus, access too is the same. It | exists. It is there for you. It is given. It cannot be denied unless |
D:Day6.1 | To realize the state of becoming is to realize that an in-between | exists between the time of learning and the time of being the |
D:Day6.9 | In all stages of its creation, the piece of music | exists in relationship to its creator. Be it only an idea, a |
D:Day6.9 | work that will qualify more as practice than as art, the piece | exists. In each stage of creation it is what it is. Only when it is a |
D:Day6.19 | and manifestation without the accomplishment that already | exists. |
D:Day10.2 | confidence of the self of form? Certainty is knowing that this power | exists. Confidence is the expression of your reliance upon it. To |
D:Day10.2 | upon it. To rely on your own power is to rely on the connection that | exists between the self of form and the Self of union and to, through |
D:Day10.35 | aware of them. So is every other living thing because all that lives | exists in relationship. What I have often referred to as the urgency |
D:Day10.35 | aspects of urgency are converging. When your reliance on all that | exists apart from your Self—your reliance on science and technology |
D:Day11.4 | The One Self | exists within the many in order to know Its Self through sharing in |
D:Day11.6 | be the All of Everything would be to not know existence. Only what | exists in relationship knows that it exists. Thus relationship is |
D:Day11.6 | not know existence. Only what exists in relationship knows that it | exists. Thus relationship is everything. Relationship is the truth. |
D:Day13.6 | void of the loveless self. As long as the void of the loveless self | exists within the spacious Self, they exist in harmony. It is only in |
D:Day13.7 | the suffering self. A suffering self, held within the spacious Self, | exists in harmony with the spacious Self. Attempts to eject the self |
D:Day13.8 | relationship is not only possible but inevitable. True relationship | exists naturally in the state of harmony that is the spacious Self. |
D:Day15.2 | and everyone. Thus your willingness to be made known and to know | exists alongside your willingness to embrace the unknown. |
D:Day15.23 | has always existed within you in the realm of the unknown that also | exists within you. |
D:Day16.2 | Because all that is not physical | exists only in consciousness, it simply exists. It is simply “there” |
D:Day16.2 | all that is not physical exists only in consciousness, it simply | exists. It is simply “there” within consciousness. All that you |
D:Day16.9 | time, wholeness, where all that is real and all that was ever real | exists. While the physical manifestations of all that you feared and |
D:Day16.10 | moment you remain within Christ-consciousness where all that is | exists in harmony. To embrace is the opposite of to escape. To hold |
D:Day16.13 | about. What you hold within the embrace is held in love and so | exists along with you in the spacious state of constant coming to |
D:Day21.1 | of any of the ideas that you may still have that an outside source | exists. There is no such thing as an outside source. There are no |
D:Day21.6 | that you receive in union as a channel of the divine life force that | exists in everything and everyone. There is nothing channeled to one |
D:Day22.7 | You realize that you have known a place where nothing but love | exists, where there is no suffering, no death, no pain nor sorrow, no |
D:Day22.8 | now within you awaiting your expression. Awareness of union with God | exists in everything. It is there in every tree and every flower, in |
D:Day22.8 | as if it is not. It is time to be a channel for the awareness that | exists in every tree and every flower, in each mountain stream and in |
D:Day22.8 | It is time to be a channel for the awareness of union with God that | exists in every living being. |
D:Day22.11 | Remember only the feeling that a place of union | exists in which you know God, in which you know love, in which you |
D:Day24.2 | remains unaltered despite its many manifestations. Wholeness | exists in every cell, in each of every smallest particle of |
D:Day24.2 | cell, in each of every smallest particle of existence. Wholeness | exists in you. Nothing can take wholeness from you. It is as natural |
D:Day24.3 | Potential is that which | exists. It exists as the power and energy, the spirit within you. It |
D:Day24.3 | Potential is that which exists. It | exists as the power and energy, the spirit within you. It does not |
D:Day24.3 | The choice is and is not yours. This power is a force of nature that | exists, not separately from you, but not separately from nature |
D:Day24.5 | that wholeness has always existed, that potential is that which | exists, or that potential does not await. |
D:Day24.8 | will realizes that you are the carrier of all the potential that | exists. An activated will releases the power that is potential. |
D:Day24.8 | the power that is potential. Remember potential is that which | exists, that which is. It is not that which is not, not that which is |
D:Day27.12 | The constant does not become variable because variability | exists. |
D:Day29.4 | talk of accomplishment is merely about bringing forward what already | exists into the reality in which you exist. Another way of saying |
D:Day31.2 | relationship but no realization of the unity in which relationship | exists. You “know” the experience because you have “had” the |
D:Day32.19 | and with all of creation. You are also, however, a being that | exists in relationship. The extent of your ability to be in |
D:Day33.1 | is to embrace an idea laden with conflict. The power of God | exists within everyone because all are one in being with God. And yet |
D:Day35.5 | of Self is God. God's awareness of you is Self. This awareness | exists in reciprocal relationship. |
D:Day35.14 | which is unity, because without this full realization the potential | exists for conditions other than love to exist. It should not take |
D:Day35.16 | Humankind's unawareness of the union and relationship in which it | exists has produced the idea of separation, while at the same time, |
D:Day37.3 | Thus the world does not exist without relationship—as nothing | exists without relationship. But relationship, like being and |
D:Day37.23 | God the Father is an idea that was created and thus | exists much as other ideas of God were created and thus exist. But |
D:Day37.26 | The only real difference that | exists or has ever existed between God and man is that man sees |
D:Day37.26 | relationship is to be God in form—to give expression to “all” that | exists in union and relationship through your being. |

Tx:8.105 | and know what it is. And if you do distort reality, you will | experience anxiety, depression, and ultimately panic, because you are |

Tx:15.89 | and the need your creations have to be with you forever, you would | experience the attraction of the eternal. No one can hear Him speak |
Tx:15.91 | of a body at all. In the holy instant there are no bodies, and you | experience only the attraction of God. Accepting it as undivided, you |
Tx:16.57 | yourself. Its whole thought system is a carefully contrived learning | experience designed to lead away from truth and into fantasy. Yet |

Tx:16.76 | you joined Him. The illusions you bring with you will weaken the | experience of Him for a while and will prevent you from keeping the |
Tx:16.76 | experience of Him for a while and will prevent you from keeping the | experience in your mind. Yet the holy instant is eternal, and your |
Tx:17.16 | are central to all unholy relationships is evident. Your own | experience has taught you this. But what you do not realize are all |
Tx:17.42 | As God ascends into His rightful place and you to yours, you will | experience again the meaning of relationship and know it to be |
Tx:17.43 | witnessed to by its results. The holy instant never fails. The | experience of it is always felt. Yet without expression, it is not |
Tx:17.43 | remembered. The holy relationship is a constant reminder of the | experience in which the relationship became what it is. And as the |

Tx:17.61 | way of looking, for the ego believes the situation brings the | experience. The Holy Spirit knows that the situation is as the goal |
Tx:17.63 | truth would bring. For fantasy solutions bring but the illusion of | experience, and the illusion of peace is not the condition in which |
Tx:18.30 | to make whole. Let not time worry you, for all the fear that you | experience is really past. Time has been readjusted to help us do |
Tx:18.46 | lie in the fact that it is now impossible for either of you to | experience fear alone or to attempt to deal with it alone. Never |
Tx:18.61 | self. In these instants of release from physical restrictions, you | experience much of what happens in the holy instant; the lifting of |
Tx:18.61 | instant; the lifting of the barriers of time and space, the sudden | experience of peace and joy, and, above all, the lack of awareness of |
Tx:20.31 | Those who choose freedom will | experience only its results. Their power is of God, and they will |
Tx:20.46 | Nothing can show the contrast better than the | experience of both a holy and an unholy relationship. The first is |
Tx:20.59 | sin to holiness should now be almost over. To the extent you still | experience it, you are refusing to leave the means to Him Who changed |
Tx:21.15 | I am responsible for what I see. I chose the feelings I | experience, and I decided on the goal I would achieve. And everything |
Tx:21.30 | truth. The source of sin is gone. You may imagine that you still | experience its effects, but it is not your purpose, and you no longer |
Tx:21.50 | that you will see yourself as tiny, vulnerable, and afraid. You will | experience depression, a sense of worthlessness, and feelings of |
Tx:21.90 | that could be always yours. Here is the constant peace you could | experience forever. Here is what denial has denied revealed to you. |
Tx:22.63 | the alternatives, this seems more natural and more in line with your | experience. And therefore it is necessary that you have other |
Tx:22.64 | of your holy relationship. For what one thinks the other will | experience with him. What can this mean except your minds are one? |
Tx:25.75 | in every circumstance that this is true. Nor need you look to your | experience within the world, which is but shadows of all that is |
Tx:27.10 | It has no life, but neither is it dead. It stands apart from all | experience of fear or love. For now it witnesses to nothing yet, its |
Tx:30.7 | have, the things you want to happen to you, and the things you would | experience and say, |
Tx:30.83 | labels change with other judgments made on different aspects of | experience. And then in looking back you think you see another |

W1:157.1 | of eternity are heard. This day is holy, for it ushers in a new | experience, a different kind of feeling and awareness. You have spent |
W1:157.2 | point in the curriculum. We add a new dimension now—a fresh | experience that sheds a light on all that we have learned already and |
W1:157.5 | you meet, and everyone you think of, or who thinks of you. For your | experience today will so transform your mind that it becomes the |
W1:157.6 | today, its only purpose being now to bring the vision of what you | experience this day to light the world. We cannot give experience |
W1:157.6 | of what you experience this day to light the world. We cannot give | experience like this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in our eyes |
W1:157.6 | which we can offer everyone that he may come the sooner to the same | experience in which the world is quietly forgot and Heaven is |
W1:157.7 | As this | experience increases and all goals but this become of little worth, |
W1:157.8 | dreamed for you this journey which you make and start today with the | experience this day holds out to you to be your own. |
W1:158.2 | today? Our lesson yesterday evoked a theme found early in the text. | Experience cannot be shared directly in the way that vision can. The |
W1:158.4 | appearances which does not change. The script is written. When | experience will come to end your doubting has been set. For we but |
W1:158.5 | The teacher does not give | experience because he did not learn it. It revealed itself to him at |
W1:158.6 | Here are all contradictions reconciled, for here the journey ends. | Experience, unlearned, untaught, unseen, is merely there. This is |
W1:169.3 | know and thus is ready to accept a state completely different from | experience with which it is familiarly at home. |
W1:169.4 | And yet we urge you to bear witness to the Word of God to hasten the | experience of truth and speed its advent into every mind which |
W1:169.7 | This is beyond | experience we try to hasten. Yet forgiveness, taught and learned, |
W1:169.11 | And now we ask for grace, the final gift salvation can bestow. | Experience that grace provides will end in time, for grace |
W1:169.11 | returned by you from holy instants you receive through grace in your | experience to all who see the light that lingers on your face. |
W1:169.13 | not far behind. Its coming is ensured. We ask for grace and for | experience that comes from grace. We welcome the release it offers |
W1:R5.12 | Let this review become a time in which we share a new | experience for you, yet one as old as time, and older still. Hallowed |
W1:R5.15 | to recall the mind as needed to its purpose. We place faith in the | experience that comes from practice, not the means we use. We wait |
W1:R5.15 | that comes from practice, not the means we use. We wait for the | experience and recognize that it is only here conviction lies. We use |
W1:I2.2 | convey the sense of liberation which their lifting brings. But the | experience of freedom and of peace that comes as you give up your |
W1:I2.3 | words by concentrating first on what impedes our progress still. | Experience of what exists beyond defensiveness remains beyond |
W1:181.2 | you held before. Remove your focus on your brother's sins, and you | experience the peace that comes from faith in sinlessness. This faith |
W1:181.10 | We look straight into the present. And we give our trust to the | experience we ask for now. Our sinlessness is but the Will of God. |
W1:183.10 | Today you can achieve a state in which you will | experience the gifts of grace. You can escape all bondage of the |
W1:183.12 | possibly convey, is peace eternal. In our Father's Name, we would | experience this peace today. And in His Name it shall be given us. |
W1:184.13 | No one can fail who seeks the meaning of the Name of God. | Experience must come to supplement the word. But first you must |
W1:186.5 | is so. The arrogant must cling to words, afraid to go beyond them to | experience which might affront their stance. Yet are the humble free |
W1:186.8 | day with welcome or with tears. Our very being seems to change as we | experience a thousand shifts in mood, and our emotions raise us high |
W1:194.4 | the future go and place it in God's hands. And you will see by your | experience that you have laid the past and present in His hands as |
W1:194.7 | hands of God? What can he suffer? What can cause him pain or bring | experience of loss to him? What can he fear? And what can he regard |
W2:I.1 | but as guides on which we do not now depend. For now we seek direct | experience of truth alone. The lessons which remain are merely |
W2:I.11 | will intersperse our daily lessons and the periods of wordless, deep | experience which should come afterwards. These special thoughts |

W2:310.1 | with You, as You have chosen all my days should be. And what I will | experience is not of time at all. The joy that comes to me is not of |
W2:327.1 | He will hear my call and answer me Himself. Let me but learn from my | experience that this is true, and faith in Him must surely come to |

C:17.6 | the loss of consciousness that it brings. Each of you has had the | experience of dreaming during the time of sleep. Some may claim they |
C:18.8 | your Self among those who comprise it, and imagine the life that you | experience now taking place much like that you would see projected on |

C:18.10 | only way to make the unbelievable believable is to alter what you | experience. The state in which you now exist was not only |
C:18.10 | unbelievable but also inconceivable to you in your natural state. | Experience was required in order to alter your belief system and is |
C:18.11 | The | experience of unity will alter your belief system and that of others, |
C:18.11 | you are currently learning from separation, however, each must | experience unity individually before their belief system can be |

C:18.13 | In order for your | experience base to change from that of learning in separation to that |
C:18.13 | of another's idea is not to give birth to it. You thus must each | experience the birth of the idea of learning from unity in order for |
C:18.13 | an idea of yours through your relationship with it. You need only to | experience this idea in your own way, from the desire to know from |
C:18.22 | the function of the body as a learning device. Your body seems to | experience both pleasure and pain, yet as a learning device, it is |
C:18.22 | and pain, yet as a learning device, it is neutral. It does not | experience, but only conveys that which can be experienced to you. |
C:18.22 | the perfect relationship for the purpose of learning, since both the | experience and the reaction to the experience can then be learned |
C:18.22 | of learning, since both the experience and the reaction to the | experience can then be learned from, and because the learner can |
C:18.22 | be in charge and to be both the experiencer and the interpreter of | experience. In addition, this misperception has allowed the body's |
C:18.22 | recognized the truth of what causes pain nor that you can reject the | experience of it. The same is true of pleasure. |
C:18.23 | you have not recognized this and have failed to learn that all you | experience as painful is the result of feelings of lack of love, and |
C:19.1 | sense. And yet in creating the perfect device from which you could | experience separation, all such problems were anticipated and |
C:19.1 | and corrective devices created alongside them. You could not fully | experience separation without a sense of self as separate, and you |
C:19.1 | without a sense of self as separate, and you could not fully | experience anything without your free will. A separate self with a |
C:19.1 | in an external world, as well as a spirit self desiring the | experience of separation, would naturally lead to a situation where |
C:19.2 | as all of creation was, it was also created to provide the desired | experience. Thus was fear born, for a separate self is a fearful self |
C:19.3 | You who have grown weary of this | experience rejoice, for you can choose a new experience. Your free |
C:19.3 | grown weary of this experience rejoice, for you can choose a new | experience. Your free will has not been taken from you, nor has the |
C:19.5 | however, expected to believe all I have told you on faith alone. | Experience is needed to change your beliefs and to place your faith |
C:19.5 | place your faith securely in them. The first step in leading you to | experience of another kind is your willingness to accept that you are |
C:19.10 | the language of the heart. This is why you have been asked to | experience the spirit of your brothers and sisters rather than simply |
C:19.15 | about other things. And, increasingly, you are willing to exchange | experience for second-hand knowledge and to believe you can come to |
C:19.15 | now—coming to know your own Self—it is obvious that another's | experience will not bring this knowledge to you, not even my |
C:19.15 | experience will not bring this knowledge to you, not even my | experience. If this were so, all of those who read of my life and |
C:19.15 | read of my life and words would have learned what I learned from my | experience. While many have learned much of others, this type of |
C:19.15 | others, this type of learning is but a starting point, a gateway to | experience. |
C:19.19 | It is a bit like traveling backward, or the review of life that some | experience after death. In order to remember unity you must, in a |
C:22.7 | others, where you encounter situations in your daily life, where you | experience those things that cause you to feel or believe in a |
C:23.10 | Understanding of this loving relationship can help you to | experience freedom of the body, which is an extension, in form, of |
C:23.24 | for a period of engagement with life. Many of you will have begun to | experience unlearning opportunities even while your study of this |
C:23.24 | to true conviction. True conviction cannot be attained without this | experience of unlearning and purging. |
C:24.1 | you learned to distrust, you will learn trust. And each learning | experience will be a learning experience because it will touch your |
C:24.1 | will learn trust. And each learning experience will be a learning | experience because it will touch your heart. It may be as simple as a |
C:25.24 | soon realize why this time of engagement with life is necessary. | Experience is necessary to complete the cycle of unlearning and |
C:26.17 | If you could truly succeed at doing this for one instant, you would | experience all that is holy and be forever new. |
C:26.18 | You may | experience disappointment at these words, and feel as if you have |
C:30.3 | to claim your learning for your Self. Learn who you are through each | experience rather than learning in order to find out who you are or |
C:31.26 | —or in other words, awaits the transfer of your feelings and | experience to truth, and thus to your mind. Only the truth abides |
C:31.34 | giving and receiving as one is called relationship. It allows you to | experience who you are and thus to know, or remember, who you are. It |
C:31.35 | just as your mind does not exist outside of oneness. Your | experience here is but an extension of mind into a realm in which |
C:31.35 | experience here is but an extension of mind into a realm in which | experience can occur. Your ego has made of this something different |
C:31.35 | something different than it is. Rather than extension of mind, your | experience has become a projection of ego. This can change. |
C:32.2 | that regardless of this truth you will not, in coming to know and | experience this, lose your Self. The way in which you experience |
C:32.2 | to know and experience this, lose your Self. The way in which you | experience relationship with each aspect of the Trinity is different |
C:32.2 | is true of all relationship with everything. The way in which you | experience relationship with each aspect of creation is different |
T1:1.4 | that once was but transform that reality into a present moment | experience. It is in the present-moment experience memory provides |
T1:1.4 | into a present moment experience. It is in the present-moment | experience memory provides that truth rather than illusion can now be |
T1:1.4 | can now be experienced and learned from. It is in the present-moment | experience that you will receive the blessing of being able to |
T1:1.5 | you for this. As each situation that re-enacts a previous learning | experience arises, you will, if you trust your heart, be perfectly |
T1:1.10 | the thoughts of a mind joined in union will be unparalleled in your | experience here. “Ah,” you will say with a relief and joy that knows |
T1:1.10 | with a relief and joy that knows no bounds, “this is what it is to | experience and know the truth. This is what it is to create, for this |
T1:1.10 | joined in union will now, more and more, recognize only truth and | experience only the truly real. |
T1:1.12 | is called upon. Be willing now to apply the art of thought to the | experience of truth. |
T1:2.3 | To | experience the truth and apply to that experience the thoughts of the |
T1:2.3 | To experience the truth and apply to that | experience the thoughts of the ego-mind, the same thoughts that were |
T1:2.13 | rays, perhaps to feel the warmth or chill of an evening. The whole | experience might include the sound of birds or traffic, the rhythm of |
T1:2.13 | the ocean, or the pounding of your own heart. It might be a shared | experience, one in which you share the feeling of awe inspired by |
T1:2.16 | The sunset is part of your human | experience. In the lower order of that experience it speaks to your |
T1:2.16 | sunset is part of your human experience. In the lower order of that | experience it speaks to your survival needs. It may signal many |
T1:2.17 | Yet to rise above this lower order of | experience is to receive and to give back. First the sunset is |
T1:2.17 | world and the eternal. It binds you to all those who have and will | experience the sunset by being a shared experience. It is there not |
T1:2.17 | all those who have and will experience the sunset by being a shared | experience. It is there not for you alone, but in listening to its |
T1:2.18 | Finally, the sunset becomes, through your | experience of it, an opportunity to apply the art of thought. |
T1:2.19 | Thus, these are the basic rules of the art of thought: First, to | experience what is and to acknowledge what is, both as a fact of your |
T1:2.19 | the Creator. Second, to acknowledge the relationship inherent in the | experience, the call for a response, and the nature of all gifts as |
T1:2.21 | To | experience what is and to acknowledge what is, one must be present, |
T1:2.21 | acknowledge what is, one must be present, present as human being. To | experience what is and to acknowledge what is as being a gift of God |
T1:2.21 | a gift of God is to be present as a divine being having a human | experience. No part of being is negated. All senses and feelings of |
T1:3.1 | the art of thought to be applied relate to memory in terms of your | experience here. In other words they will relate to the |
T1:3.2 | Seeing how different from the | experience of illusion is the experience of truth is the same as |
T1:3.2 | Seeing how different from the experience of illusion is the | experience of truth is the same as seeing how different the art of |
T1:3.3 | it cannot see the higher order. Because of all of this, it cannot | experience the truth and so exists in illusion. |
T1:3.4 | The | experience of truth dispels illusion and thus the ego-mind. The art |
T1:4.19 | Interpretation but gives you opinions about those things that you | experience. Response reveals the truth to you because it reveals the |
T1:4.21 | to re-experience the lessons your life has brought you. You will | experience the same lessons in the same way, rather than in a new |
T1:4.27 | a God of love, this revelation has not been reconciled with your | experience here. This is what we will now seek to do by putting an |
T1:5.2 | the art of thought. One aspect of this fear has to do with the human | experience, the other aspect with the divine experience. |
T1:5.2 | to do with the human experience, the other aspect with the divine | experience. |
T1:5.3 | has gone wrong within it, this fear in relation to the human | experience is of what it was I spoke. The choice for suffering that |
T1:5.8 | In order to | experience the truth, you must move into a state that is real. |
T1:5.9 | system has kept you from this freedom is the seeming difficulty you | experience in learning this course of study and the reason, when you |
T1:5.10 | The body, and thus the “you” whom you think you are, would not | experience anything without the presence of the heart. The heart is |
T1:5.10 | the presence of the heart. The heart is the only cause of your | experience here. When released from the ego thought system, the heart |
T1:5.10 | the ego thought system, the heart becomes the determiner of what you | experience since you know it as the cause. This is what is meant by |
T1:5.11 | The “here” that you | experience is the experience dictated by the ego-mind, and this |
T1:5.11 | The “here” that you experience is the | experience dictated by the ego-mind, and this experience is all that |
T1:5.11 | you experience is the experience dictated by the ego-mind, and this | experience is all that makes you believe you are other than who you |
T1:5.12 | manner in which you would be once and finally convinced. You must | experience the reality of the new thought system or it will remain |
T1:5.12 | of fear on which the old thought system was built in order to | experience the new. |
T1:5.13 | The art of thought invites the | experience of the new thought system by being willing to replace the |
T1:6.6 | memory and transforming that divine memory into a present moment | experience. |
T1:6.7 | perception. If perception were all that were available to you, each | experience would begin and end and have no ability to relate to |
T1:6.7 | experiences without relating to them in the same way. It is the way | experience is related to, through memory, which shapes the different |
T1:9.13 | a few brief examples. These I ask you to cull from your own recent | experience. What has caused the ego to become more apparent to you as |
T1:10.2 | of extremes in your feelings and want to bring them back. You will | experience this loss of extremes as a lack. You will think something |
T1:10.2 | is wrong. You will feel this particularly when others around you | experience extremes. A friend is experiencing feelings on an extreme |
T1:10.2 | same reason, the reason of wanting to be fully engaged in the human | experience. |
T1:10.3 | Here is this | experience you have created and how often have you been fully engaged |
T1:10.3 | human of ways. You will cry and laugh for the poignancy of the human | experience. This is the known that you will be tempted not to give |
T1:10.4 | This is temptation. The temptation of the human | experience. This is what you continue to choose over the Peace of |
T1:10.5 | You used your free will to choose the human | experience. Now are you willing to use it to choose the Peace of God |
T1:10.6 | These extremes of the human | experience have been learning devices. They have cracked open hearts |
T1:10.6 | while you may continue to read for a lifetime. You can continue to | experience life and still carry the Peace of God within you. As you |
T1:10.8 | the Peace of God is all the joy of what you have known as the human | experience and none of the sorrow. |
T1:10.9 | Each of you will have an | experience you look back on, an experience of profound joy or grief |
T1:10.9 | Each of you will have an experience you look back on, an | experience of profound joy or grief that also became an experience of |
T1:10.9 | back on, an experience of profound joy or grief that also became an | experience of profound learning. You will think that you would not be |
T2:1.1 | it will begin to be regarded as an ability. And finally, through | experience, it will become your identity. We will begin by discussing |
T2:3.4 | between the ego-self that previously was the self of learning and | experience, and the Christ-Self that is now the Self of learning and |
T2:3.4 | experience, and the Christ-Self that is now the Self of learning and | experience. You must take on the mantle of your new identity, your |
T2:7.21 | this belief builds on the belief of the already accomplished through | experience. As you experience giving and receiving being one in |
T2:7.21 | on the belief of the already accomplished through experience. As you | experience giving and receiving being one in truth, your belief will |
T2:9.18 | accept need and dependency is necessary only as a learning ground of | experience on which trust can grow. Once this trust is realized you |
T2:10.7 | told that you can no longer believe that what you know is related to | experience, you are not being told that you have exactly the same |
T2:10.7 | same knowledge as does every person of every variety and level of | experience. Yet no one can know more of the truth than another, and |
T2:11.13 | way, that there is a condition under which you are here and able to | experience life as a separate being. That condition is relationship |
T2:13.2 | and I, as your teacher, have all but discounted the personal self I | experience in relationship with you. Now, in unity, we are ready to |
T2:13.6 | not who you truly are, but forget not also to be in joy in your | experience here. Remember that the seriousness with which you once |
T3:1.7 | you are now to play. There is not one of you who has not begun to | experience the transformation that is, in truth, occurring, although |
T3:7.4 | you are and remain endlessly who you are, even here within the human | experience. This is the idea that is beyond compare as you are beyond |
T3:7.5 | The only thing within the human | experience that made you incapable of representing who you are in |
T3:7.5 | who you are in truth was the ego. The only thing within the human | experience that deprived the human experience of meaning was the ego. |
T3:7.5 | The only thing within the human experience that deprived the human | experience of meaning was the ego. Thus, with the ego gone, you are |
T3:8.4 | is an idea intrinsically tied to the personal self and the | experience of the personal self. Whether you believe the personal |
T3:10.16 | of illusion you will continue to encounter temptations of the human | experience. These are what we will now address. |
T3:11.5 | The house of illusion is the stage on which the drama of the human | experience has been acted out. |
T3:11.11 | Thus we begin to address the temptations of the human | experience. Two are spoken of in tandem here: The temptation to judge |
T3:11.16 | This first lesson on the temptation of the human | experience comes in truth as a warning against righteousness. It |
T3:11.16 | this and all such reminders regarding the temptations of the human | experience are necessary. |
T3:12.3 | Temptations of the human | experience exist only in time. What we are about to do is move the |
T3:12.3 | exist only in time. What we are about to do is move the human | experience out of the realm of time. For this to happen, we must |
T3:12.3 | to happen, we must remove the time-bound temptations of the human | experience of the personal self. |
T3:12.4 | of Truth. How then can the personal self begin to realize the human | experience outside of time? The answer is thus: by changing the |
T3:12.7 | realm of physicality. What this means is that all that in this human | experience has come of love will be retained. All that will be lost |
T3:12.8 | Let's return a moment to the choice that was made for the human | experience, the choice to express who you are in the realm of |
T3:13.2 | We proceed by further defining the temptations of the human | experience. In “A Treatise on the Art of Thought,” we spoke of these |
T3:13.2 | we spoke of these temptations in regards to extremes of the human | experience, saying that these things that draw you from the peace of |
T3:13.2 | of who you are, and so cause you to be aware only of a self of human | experience, or a personal self. While you may still feel a connection |
T3:13.2 | but memories to you while your reality remains that of the physical | experience and the personal self. In such times you can conceive only |
T3:13.2 | of a God outside of yourself and trust not in the benevolence of the | experience, whether it be an extreme experience of pain or of |
T3:13.2 | not in the benevolence of the experience, whether it be an extreme | experience of pain or of pleasure. You begin to fear that pleasure |
T3:14.1 | these patterns of fear remain as deterrents to action, you will not | experience the freedom of living from the new thought system. The new |
T3:14.1 | mind and heart, as nothing can now take this memory from you, but to | experience the new thought system as thought alone will not bring |
T3:14.1 | changes you would so desire to have come about within your physical | experience. You may live a more peaceful and meaningful life, but you |
T3:14.2 | flirting with illusion is like unto the temptations of the human | experience and would not occur were the temptations gone from you. |
T3:15.1 | Some of you have had more | experience with new beginnings than others. For most mature adults, |
T3:15.2 | What hampers new beginnings of all kinds within the human | experience are ideas that things cannot be different than they once |
T3:16.6 | this change has to do with the time-bound temptations of the human | experience. All of these temptations relate to the beliefs set forth |
T3:16.8 | to be other than who you are in truth is a temptation of the human | experience. It will come in many forms, all of which will be related |
T3:16.10 | you do not give. The belief in lack is a temptation of the human | experience. This will relate to all situations in which you feel you |
T3:16.12 | to have no fear. Fear of loss is a great temptation of the human | experience. If it were not for this fear of loss, you would not find |
T3:16.14 | in regards to special relationships are temptations of the human | experience. These temptations will relate to any issues that you |
T3:17.3 | there became a need for a beginning and an ending to the chosen | experience. Thus each self of form is born into time and each self of |
T3:17.3 | always existed as choices, as beginnings and endings to the finite | experience of time. It is the nature of what is finite to begin and |
T3:17.4 | is a measurement of the “time” it takes for learning to occur. A new | experience was chosen—the experience of existing within the realm |
T3:17.4 | it takes for learning to occur. A new experience was chosen—the | experience of existing within the realm of physicality. As such, it |
T3:17.5 | and separate from the self. While it was important to the desired | experience to learn the lessons of what was observable within the |
T3:17.5 | but this is exactly what has been learned during the time of your | experience in physical form. Since your true Self could not learn the |
T3:18.3 | Because this was part of the original choice for the physical | experience, it is a natural choice to serve our new purpose of the |
T3:18.3 | made for a new purpose. It is the perfect ending for the desired | experience, as it was the goal of the desired experience. |
T3:18.3 | ending for the desired experience, as it was the goal of the desired | experience. |
T3:19.4 | For ages physical reality has been linked to temptations of the human | experience. Let us now dispel this link. The physical form has been |
T3:19.9 | thought, one goal. That goal is the original thought that began the | experience in physical form, the thought of expressing the Self in |
T3:19.10 | body behind and see it not as the source of temptations of the human | experience. The true source of these temptations has been revealed to |
T3:21.10 | known what is you have never been able to be certain. You have no | experience with certainty other than—and this is a crucial other |
T3:21.10 | self. Thus your personal self is the only place in which you have | experience that can now be used for a new purpose. |
T3:21.11 | Even while this | experience is experience of an ego-self, it is still an experience as |
T3:21.11 | Even while this experience is | experience of an ego-self, it is still an experience as near to |
T3:21.11 | while this experience is experience of an ego-self, it is still an | experience as near to certainty as you have been capable, simply |
T4:1.17 | and learning through observation and direction communication or | experience. The same truth has always existed, but the choice of a |
T4:1.24 | people of the world have been demanding to learn directly, through | experience, and saying “no more” to the lessons of the |
T4:1.24 | demanding to learn through observation and direct communication or | experience. Many not yet grown to maturity have been born into the |
T4:1.25 | of consciousness in which they have lived. Others do not wish to | experience the truth directly, but only to experience experience. |
T4:1.25 | Others do not wish to experience the truth directly, but only to | experience experience. They are in the desperate throes of wanting to |
T4:1.25 | do not wish to experience the truth directly, but only to experience | experience. They are in the desperate throes of wanting to experience |
T4:1.25 | experience. They are in the desperate throes of wanting to | experience everything before they allow themselves to directly |
T4:1.25 | to experience everything before they allow themselves to directly | experience the truth, thinking still that the experience of the truth |
T4:1.25 | themselves to directly experience the truth, thinking still that the | experience of the truth will exclude much that they would want to try |
T4:1.25 | into its pull and settle there. But all have become aware that a new | experience awaits and that they stand at the threshold of choice. |
T4:1.27 | them directly through observation and direct communication or | experience. It means that the last generation born into the time of |
T4:2.15 | the Self expresses was among the original reasons for this chosen | experience. Observe now the expressions of the self you are and have |
T4:2.22 | relationship with God, or the possibility that your life is a direct | experience of the pattern of unity or oneness that is creation. |
T4:2.29 | what shared vision will mean, and do not yet recognize it when you | experience it. This is why you can still think of observance of what |
T4:3.4 | intent is synonymous with cause. The original intent of this chosen | experience was the expression of the Self of love in observable form. |
T4:4.18 | in form because this goal but reflected the desire for a temporary | experience. The temporary experience has been elongated because of |
T4:4.18 | but reflected the desire for a temporary experience. The temporary | experience has been elongated because of the appeal of the physical |
T4:4.18 | experience has been elongated because of the appeal of the physical | experience. What this Treatise is saying to you is that if the |
T4:4.18 | What this Treatise is saying to you is that if the physical | experience appeals to you, and if you create the union of the human |
T4:7.3 | and even art and literature. Those who allow themselves to | experience revelation will enter Christ-consciousness. |
T4:7.8 | choose to continue to learn through the full variety of the human | experience even after it is unnecessary. Why? Because it is a choice, |
T4:8.1 | in time chose to express love in physical form, and so began this | experience of human life. You are now beginning to be able to |
T4:8.7 | that ensued. If your reality had been like unto the reality you | experience in dreams, can you not see that you would have to learn to |
T4:10.2 | than studying, and yet you will quickly see that you merely think of | experience as learning through a different means than studying. |
T4:10.11 | was what was necessary in order to allow you to fulfill the desired | experience of expressing the Self of love in form. No longer learning |
T4:12.9 | enjoyed learning through gatherings of students, gather still, and | experience sharing directly. If a time arrives when you no longer |
T4:12.13 | relate to our earlier discussion of temptations of the human | experience. Are you willing to leave them behind? Are you willing, |
T4:12.15 | impatient or desirous of a return to journeying before you begin to | experience the joy of sharing and the new challenges of creating the |
T4:12.16 | cause of learned wisdom. It became part of the nature of the human | experience by becoming so consistent within you that it came, through |
T4:12.16 | within you that it came, through the passing down of the human | experience, to be integral to your nature. Have you not always been |
T4:12.17 | has wrought. This is a necessary end point of your review of your | experience here so that you do not continue to advance learned |
T4:12.19 | have questions, dear brothers and sisters. I know that you will | experience times of not knowing how to proceed. I know that you will |
D:2.14 | system, such as that of government, the more likely you are to | experience desired outcomes. Either way, control is seen as a |
D:4.19 | structure that will provide you with parameters in which to begin to | experience your new freedom. It is your questions and concerns that |
D:4.19 | freedom at all, let us simply speak of a place and a way to begin to | experience it, and of a place and a way to begin to create the new. |
D:5.7 | painful rather than pleasurable, if you did not lose yourself and | experience completion, you would not desire it. Sex, experienced for |
D:6.26 | however, that there are portions of your Self missing from this new | experience in form you now enter into, but that the elevated Self of |
D:6.27 | The self of form, as form, could never truly | experience the All of Everything that is the natural state of the |
D:6.27 | the natural state of the formless. But the true Self cannot cease to | experience its natural state, the state of Christ-consciousness, |
D:7.1 | in the shared consciousness of unity you couldn't know what the | experience of form would be like without entering into it, you cannot |
D:7.1 | of form would be like without entering into it, you cannot know the | experience of unity without entering into it. To “enter” into the |
D:7.1 | experience of unity without entering into it. To “enter” into the | experience of form is something you can picture in your mind, and |
D:7.1 | because you are aware of the self of form. To “enter” into the | experience of unity is something more difficult to imagine, and |
D:7.4 | Experiences of form take place in time because | experience, too, was designed for learning. Now experience is needed |
D:7.4 | in time because experience, too, was designed for learning. Now | experience is needed in time to aid your total acceptance of what you |
D:7.4 | to aid your total acceptance of what you have learned. In order to | experience the new you must answer the call to let revelation and |
D:7.4 | and discovery, rather than learning, be what you gain from | experience. |
D:7.21 | of matter upon matter, and of the creature's perception of its own | experience in time. This time-bound evolution is really adaptation. |
D:8.2 | are too used to thinking of yourself as a learning being to truly | experience the freedom of not being bound by this constraint. In all |
D:10.6 | increase. To be content with personal or individual understanding or | experience of what is given is to not complete the cycle of giving |
D:14.13 | it will begin to be regarded as an ability. And finally, through | experience, it will become your identity.” That treasure is the new |
D:Day2.6 | is not as strong as it once was, and you are very unlikely to still | experience guilt or shame; but the hurts you have done others may |
D:Day3.20 | that abundance is a favor of God and, as such, those who do not | experience abundance have done something wrong. We will return to |
D:Day3.21 | constant “takers,” unafraid to ask for a “hand out” or free lunch, | experience these same emotions, the buildup of anger, resentment, and |
D:Day3.52 | to money, or abundance, each stage is experienced and felt. This | experience has only one combined value, one combined purpose, the |
D:Day4.1 | the temptations of these arguments, these temptations of the human | experience. |
D:Day4.2 | to show you this: That on one side are the temptations of the human | experience, which is just another way of saying all that you have |
D:Day4.2 | that will incite you to leave behind the temptations of the human | experience. |
D:Day4.3 | you feel as if you have a choice when the temptations of the human | experience are the only choices that have been known to you? Thus you |
D:Day4.34 | that you are here to fast from want. You know that you are here to | experience both the old temptations and the new. You realize that |
D:Day4.42 | tales of your experiences here and be made special because of this | experience you can recount? |
D:Day4.45 | this place and tempted to leave behind the temptations of the human | experience. |
D:Day4.56 | the kind of discourse that can only be had without fear. To truly | experience relationship. It is from this beginning that you will come |
D:Day4.60 | to you and put behind us forever the temptations of the human | experience. |
D:Day6.14 | be there if only you could be truly “taken away” from it all and | experience nothing but our relationship, focus on nothing but your |
D:Day6.20 | moment to the temptations associated with the mountain top of my own | experience. They were temptations of the world, of the normal, daily |
D:Day6.20 | of elevation I knew I had attained. The temptations of the human | experience are the same now as they were then. They are the same on |
D:Day6.23 | when the teacher steps aside, and the apprentice is able to gain | experience, that the apprentice is in a position to be able to begin |
D:Day9.2 | Allow yourself, now, to | experience your arrival, your return to your true home, your return |
D:Day10.3 | the apostles, let your conviction spring from your willingness to | experience its cause and its effect. I am asking you now to be |
D:Day10.26 | ideal self you left much room for feelings of the type you currently | experience. This is why we have recently spoken of anger and of those |
D:Day13.3 | You are thus not meant to lose the | experience of the self of form but to integrate it so that you are |
D:Day15.23 | Practice is the merging of the known and the unknown through | experience, action, expression, and exchange. It alters the known |
D:Day18.9 | of separation that was able to occur to allow for a certain type of | experience. Now a new degree of union is occurring to allow for a new |
D:Day18.9 | Now a new degree of union is occurring to allow for a new type of | experience. |
D:Day21.9 | You began your mountain top | experience with a companion who had offered himself as a teacher in |
D:Day27.2 | form within you but will not come into its fullness except through | experience. This certainty has only been able to begin to form within |
D:Day27.2 | to form within you because you have agreed to this mountain top | experience while remaining engaged in life. You have thus begun to |
D:Day27.2 | experience while remaining engaged in life. You have thus begun to | experience on two levels. This has been a goal of the time we have |
D:Day27.3 | Experiencing life without the insight of spirit was to | experience external life. Life itself showed you the way, pointed you |
D:Day27.3 | taught you what you needed to know. This was the external | experience of life. Most of you have had well-examined external |
D:Day27.5 | have practiced during our mountain top time together the ability to | experience on two levels. |
D:Day27.6 | Coming to know is a quality of inner-sight, of wholehearted human | experience combined with spiritual experience. You are and always |
D:Day27.6 | of wholehearted human experience combined with spiritual | experience. You are and always have been both human and spirit, both |
D:Day27.6 | within you the ability to combine both levels of being through the | experience of life. You have already been doing this. You are, in |
D:Day27.9 | The two levels of | experience which you have been participating in are the joint |
D:Day27.9 | as dualistic in nature can be experienced as different levels of | experience of one whole. You might consider this by again picturing |
D:Day27.9 | of one whole. Different aspects exist only as different levels of | experience. |
D:Day27.10 | To be able to hold onto, apprehend, and carry with you the ability to | experience both levels of experience, the internal and the external, |
D:Day27.10 | and carry with you the ability to experience both levels of | experience, the internal and the external, the form and the content, |
D:Day27.12 | you might think for a moment, just as an illustration, of your | experience of separation always taking place at a certain number of |
D:Day27.12 | cold. Yet the perfect temperature always existed, you just did not | experience it. You were, in other words, separate from it because of |
D:Day27.12 | you chose. Because you never chose union, or wholeness, you did not | experience lack of body temperature or the effects of weather, but it |
D:Day27.13 | is a constant and an aspect of wholeness. The variability of how you | experience who you are is also a constant within the aspect of |
D:Day27.13 | the aspect of separation. Merge the two, however, into one level of | experience and the whole formula changes. |
D:Day27.14 | is what we move toward as we practice participating in two levels of | experience simultaneously. We practice experiencing the constant and |
D:Day27.14 | and the variable together. We practice in order to move toward an | experience of variability within wholeness rather than within |
D:Day27.15 | Life is oneness extended into separation and variability through | experience. The elevated Self of form will be the expression of new |
D:Day27.15 | of new life lived within the constant of wholeness but continuing to | experience the variability of separation. This is what you practice |
D:Day27.16 | Separation, as well as the variability of the | experience of the separate self, have always been variables that |
D:Day27.16 | What you have experienced, however, has not been wholeness or the | experience of wholeness, but the experience of separation. What we |
D:Day27.16 | has not been wholeness or the experience of wholeness, but the | experience of separation. What we are speaking of now is being able |
D:Day27.16 | of separation. What we are speaking of now is being able to | experience wholeness and the variability of experience that has come |
D:Day27.16 | of now is being able to experience wholeness and the variability of | experience that has come through the separated self of form. This is |
D:Day27.16 | to do through your practice. Your proficiency will change your | experience, and your experience will change the world. |
D:Day27.16 | practice. Your proficiency will change your experience, and your | experience will change the world. |
D:Day28.1 | Moving from an externally directed to an internally directed | experience of life creates unlimited choices. The unlimited choices |
D:Day28.1 | unlimited choices. The unlimited choices of internally directed | experience are what you must begin to face as we begin our descent |
D:Day28.3 | through life. Many people, especially young adults, have little | experience other than this. Their lives are directed almost totally |
D:Day28.5 | avenues to explore at times open up, leading to the next level of | experience: That of external movement toward a chosen type of life. |
D:Day28.8 | the reality of wholeness that is new. The reality of being able to | experience the variability of separation from within the state of |
D:Day28.18 | can only take place within time because only within time is the | experience of separation possible, and experience is where the power |
D:Day28.18 | only within time is the experience of separation possible, and | experience is where the power of transformation lies. This |
D:Day28.18 | transformation will, however, take you beyond time, because once | experience is moved out of the realm of separation and into the realm |
D:Day28.19 | change, the transformation, we have been working on by changing your | experience of time to one of experiencing two levels of “time.” Our |
D:Day28.20 | to occur, however. What will create the shift is the ability to | experience “time outside of time” and “time” simultaneously. Thus is |
D:Day28.22 | To move to internally directed | experience is to make the move into wholeness that will cause the |
D:Day28.22 | the move into wholeness that will cause the “shift of the ages,” the | experience of variability within wholeness. |
D:Day28.23 | This is what our time on the mountain has provided you with: The | experience required in order to realize a new possibility. |
D:Day28.25 | Separation is desired no longer, but | experience is. Your will and God's are one and thus it is being made |
D:Day29.1 | have already realized the ability to participate in two levels of | experience simultaneously and that duality is really just a matter of |
D:Day29.1 | and that duality is really just a matter of different levels of | experience. If you can be having the experience of the mountain top |
D:Day29.1 | a matter of different levels of experience. If you can be having the | experience of the mountain top and the experience of level ground |
D:Day29.1 | If you can be having the experience of the mountain top and the | experience of level ground simultaneously, then you can also have the |
D:Day29.1 | of level ground simultaneously, then you can also have the | experience of all other “opposites” in this same, simultaneous way. |
D:Day29.1 | If you can integrate all that opposes wholeness into one level of | experience, you will be able to experience life from within the |
D:Day29.1 | opposes wholeness into one level of experience, you will be able to | experience life from within the reality of wholeness rather than from |
D:Day29.5 | a part of the process that has allowed you access to two levels of | experience. It is your access to two levels of experience—the |
D:Day29.5 | to two levels of experience. It is your access to two levels of | experience—the experience of wholeness and the experience of |
D:Day29.5 | of experience. It is your access to two levels of experience—the | experience of wholeness and the experience of separation. While you |
D:Day29.5 | to two levels of experience—the experience of wholeness and the | experience of separation. While you may have seen it as access to |
D:Day29.6 | your spacious self has also been part of the process and part of the | experience of merging wholeness and separation. While you may have |
D:Day29.7 | and where you are, for who you are and where you find yourself, and | experience yourself, are your reality. This is why experience has |
D:Day29.7 | yourself, and experience yourself, are your reality. This is why | experience has needed to find a place in which it could become the |
D:Day29.7 | the common denominator between wholeness and separation. Once you | experience yourself in wholeness and find yourself in union, you have |
D:Day29.7 | union, you have made of yourself the common denominator upon which | experience can find anchor in wholeness and union. |
D:Day30.2 | The two levels of | experience we have spoken of might be seen as the process, much like |
D:Day30.5 | Now let us consider this in terms of | experience. As knower and known are one, experience and experiencer |
D:Day30.5 | consider this in terms of experience. As knower and known are one, | experience and experiencer are one. In other words, one must |
D:Day30.5 | one, experience and experiencer are one. In other words, one must | experience in order to know. It follows then that what is experienced |
D:Day30.5 | is experienced is what is known. It also follows then, that to not | experience joining is to not experience wholeness. Stated another |
D:Day30.5 | It also follows then, that to not experience joining is to not | experience wholeness. Stated another way, the self cannot know the |
D:Day30.5 | with the Self. The Self must be the knower and the known, the | experience and the experiencer. The quest to join with God is this |
D:Day30.5 | God is this quest. The quest to be the knower and the known, the | experience and the experiencer. The culmination of this quest then, |
D:Day31.1 | relationship. Let us consider this by considering the two levels of | experience—that of the mountain top experience—and that of the |
D:Day31.1 | considering the two levels of experience—that of the mountain top | experience—and that of the experience on level ground. |
D:Day31.1 | experience—that of the mountain top experience—and that of the | experience on level ground. |
D:Day31.2 | While you have been immersed in one level of | experience you have been either knower or known. This is why |
D:Day31.2 | of experience you have been either knower or known. This is why | experience has seemed to exist apart from you. You say, “I had this |
D:Day31.2 | apart from you. You say, “I had this experience” or “I had that | experience,” as if you have “had” contact and interaction with |
D:Day31.2 | of the unity in which relationship exists. You “know” the | experience because you have “had” the experience. The truth that you |
D:Day31.2 | exists. You “know” the experience because you have “had” the | experience. The truth that you are the experience escapes you. |
D:Day31.2 | because you have “had” the experience. The truth that you are the | experience escapes you. |
D:Day31.3 | What the mountain top | experience is helping you to see is that you are the experience. The |
D:Day31.3 | mountain top experience is helping you to see is that you are the | experience. The mountain top experience did not happen to you or |
D:Day31.3 | helping you to see is that you are the experience. The mountain top | experience did not happen to you or happen separately from you. It |
D:Day31.3 | from you. It has happened and is happening within you. You are the | experience and the experiencer, the knower and the known. This |
D:Day31.3 | the knower and the known. This joining is the point of the | experience and the key to experiencing wholeness. |
D:Day31.5 | To have experienced only separation is to have known only half of any | experience, to have seen every experience in only one dimension—in |
D:Day31.5 | is to have known only half of any experience, to have seen every | experience in only one dimension—in short, to have seen experience |
D:Day31.5 | seen every experience in only one dimension—in short, to have seen | experience as happening to you rather than as you. By realizing the |
D:Day31.5 | than as you. By realizing the unity of the relationship in which | experience becomes manifest, you not only realize oneness, but |
D:Day31.6 | All | experience is a product of knower and knowee. It is the One Self |
D:Day31.7 | Joining is differentiated from union only by | experience. Union is the realm of the One. Joining is where the realm |
D:Day31.7 | is the One—the common denominator. By knowing the One in the many, | experience can be achieved within wholeness. |
D:Day31.8 | Self. Notice the link here of knowing and experiencing. To know | experience as the Self is to know the Self as creator, or in other |
D:Day31.8 | is to join the two. The two are thus joined in the relationship of | experience. Experience is not known separately from the Self. Self |
D:Day31.8 | the two. The two are thus joined in the relationship of experience. | Experience is not known separately from the Self. Self and God are |
D:Day31.8 | and experiencing together in wholeness. For the individuated Self to | experience separately from God is to negate the purpose of the |
D:Day31.8 | to experience separately from God is to negate the purpose of the | experience of the Self which is God. To negate is to deny what is. |
D:Day31.8 | The acceptance of what is is the Source of union and the ability to | experience in wholeness. |
D:Day32.1 | The | experience of the Self is God. It is not from God. It is not of God. |
D:Day32.2 | If all of life is the oneness that is God and God has chosen to | experience that oneness through relationship, then you are also that |
D:Day32.2 | experience that oneness through relationship, then you are also that | experience and are in relationship with God through that experience. |
D:Day32.2 | also that experience and are in relationship with God through that | experience. |
D:Day32.18 | Self, and the means that have been used—such as the two levels of | experience you have achieved during the days and nights of our time |
D:Day34.4 | wholehearted desire that is upon you now is the desire to know and | experience this oneness of being in relationship rather than the |
D:Day34.6 | This is your world and your | experience. This is your life and your experience of life. Now you |
D:Day34.6 | This is your world and your experience. This is your life and your | experience of life. Now you must believe that you are its creator and |
D:Day34.7 | If you do not make real your power, you will | experience yourself as powerless. If you experience your being as |
D:Day34.7 | real your power, you will experience yourself as powerless. If you | experience your being as powerless, you are negating the power of God |
D:Day34.8 | to draw to the close of our time together by asking each other to | experience our power—the power of sameness of being. Are you |
D:Day34.8 | our power—the power of sameness of being. Are you willing to | experience the power of God? To let it flow through you? Realize how |
D:Day35.6 | to be of practical benefit to you as you leave the mountain top | experience behind? This question has been asked in this way in order |
D:Day35.6 | will return to level ground, you will also retain the mountain top | experience. As was said before, the mountain came to you. You will |
D:Day35.6 | You will thus always have the power to call upon the mountain top | experience and the view of wholeness we have achieved here. You will |
D:Day35.15 | of creation, which is life in relationship, life in harmony, the | experience and the expression of the one in, and within, the many. |
D:Day36.1 | The exercise of your power is in the creation of your | experience. |
D:Day36.2 | As an ego-self, you created an | experience for yourself that was separate from all others. You made |
D:Day36.2 | You did so continuously. This was the way in which you created your | experience of a separate existence. |
D:Day36.3 | and see its form. You could write an autobiography describing every | experience you encountered between your earliest memory and the |
D:Day36.5 | those that would move the story of your life along as a “personal” | experience rather than as experience itself. Even experiences |
D:Day36.5 | story of your life along as a “personal” experience rather than as | experience itself. Even experiences dictated by “fate” were of |
D:Day36.7 | what you have been given is everything, your creatorship of your | experience is a totally different exercise. You realize that your |
D:Day36.8 | Can you not see that if you can create your | experience you can create a new reality—a new world? Can you not |
D:Day36.8 | a “given” set of circumstances in a “given” world and creating your | experience as a creator who has realized oneness and unity—who has |
D:Day36.9 | a new set of circumstances and a new world by creating it as your | experience. This is starting over with the realization that you are |
D:Day36.9 | over with the realization that you are now the creator of your | experience. You have always been creating because you have always |
D:Day36.10 | power of being because you were a being who existed, but you did not | experience being powerful. |
D:Day36.15 | a challenging choice. A god-like choice. A choice for a new kind of | experience that has led to the creation of an unreal reality so |
D:Day36.17 | of All, but God is also now the Creator of One, the Creator of the | experience of one life, or many lives, the experience and the |
D:Day36.17 | One, the Creator of the experience of one life, or many lives, the | experience and the experiencer of life. Through differentiation, God |
D:Day36.19 | of a new heaven and a new earth. The only way to create it is to | experience it. The only way to experience it is to create it. All |
D:Day36.19 | The only way to create it is to experience it. The only way to | experience it is to create it. All that stands in the way of your |
D:Day37.3 | with movement. Being is only being in relationship. Movement nor | experience exist without relationship. Thus the world does not exist |
D:Day37.3 | exists without relationship. But relationship, like being and | experience, does not differentiate or individuate you in separation |
D:Day37.3 | around you. Since you see yourself as separate from it, all that you | experience with your being is separation. All that you represent with |
D:Day37.4 | You were not alone in this story, and yet you were taught to | experience only in separation from the being you were being. And |
D:Day40.9 | individuation that will occur now, will hold all the power of your | experience as well as all the power of your longing for return. This |

T1:10.2 | this human who has caught your attention is fully engaged and fully | experiencing the moment. You will think this is what you want. And I |
T2:3.4 | have felt the peace and love of the embrace. You know that you are | experiencing something real and learning something that is of |

C:20.28 | possible until you know who you are. To know who you are and not to | express who you are with your full power is the result of fear. To |

T2:3.1 | of it. It exists, fully realized within you. Your work here is to | express it. You are far more than your life here. You created your |
T2:3.1 | you are living and the life you want lies in your willingness to | express who you are. |
T2:3.2 | if there had been no desire for expression. Life is the desire to | express outwardly what exists within. What I refer to so often here |
T2:3.2 | Your heart tells you of the already accomplished and bids you to | express it with your physicality, thus uniting the two realms through |
T2:3.7 | you, you do not have to learn what beautiful music is, only how to | express it. If you see beauty within, you do not have to learn what |
T2:3.7 | beauty within, you do not have to learn what beauty is, only how to | express it. Expression and creation are not synonymous. Creation is a |
T2:3.7 | provide for continuing creation. Thus the seeds of all that you can | express exist “within” you, in the creation that is you. The power of |
T2:3.7 | of creation is released through your choice, your willingness to | express that aspect of creation. It is quite literally true that the |
T2:7.17 | You have done so out of a desire to be truthful, a desire to not | express thoughts and feelings unworthy of your real Self. You may |
T2:7.19 | honesty in relationships. Does this mean that you are required to | express every thought and feeling that comes your way? No, but this |
T2:7.19 | with truth and illusion separated, you develop the discipline to | express your true Self, as you are now. This is the only way the Self |
T2:12.11 | hang on to what is already accomplished within you, never to let it | express, through relationship, all that it is. As valuable as the ego |

T3:12.10 | step in all of creation than a physical self able to choose to | express the Self within the laws of love? A physical self, able to |
T3:12.10 | express the Self within the laws of love? A physical self, able to | express itself from within the House of Truth in ways consistent with |
T3:17.1 | to obscure the truth? As we have already shown, to have chosen to | express the Self in physical form was a choice consistent with the |
T3:19.11 | who you believed yourself to be. Thus those continuing to | express themselves in harmful ways are deeply entrenched in false |
T4:3.5 | the original intent remained within you and caused you to attempt to | express a Self of love despite your fear, fear has thwarted your |
T4:3.5 | continued the cycle of fear. To have to try to be who you are and to | express who you are is the result of the displacement of the nature |
T4:5.2 | that you can once again be in harmony with creation. So that you can | express yourself within the relationship of unity that is the whole |
T4:5.8 | might say that your finger does not, then, have free will. It cannot | express itself independently of the whole. |
T4:5.9 | The same is true of you! You cannot | express yourself independently of the whole! It is as impossible as |
T4:8.1 | or some species without form who at some point in time chose to | express love in physical form, and so began this experience of human |
T4:8.6 | Each expression of God's love, being of God, continued to | express love through expression of its nature, which was of God. What |
T4:8.6 | true nature, which in turn caused a disconnect in your ability to | express love, which in turn caused a disconnect in your ability to |
T4:8.9 | needed in order to come into the time of fullness of a being able to | express itself in form, never realizing that this just delayed the |
T4:8.13 | God. What other purpose would God ever have had for wanting to | express the Love that is Himself in form, if it were not for the |
T4:10.11 | was what was necessary in order to know who you are and how to | express who you are. No longer learning, or being accomplished, is |
T4:10.11 | is synonymous with knowing who you are and the ability to | express who you are in truth. |
T4:12.10 | difference the release of this idea will make in your capacity to | express who you are. As long as you continue to invite learning, you |
D:3.19 | form and content and the difference in the way separate forms | express content. It will be challenging to become aware that |
D:7.20 | of form. As your awareness grows, you will begin to expand and | express in new ways. Those ways thus now include the form of your |
D:8.10 | and the true expression of the Self. Thus where you have desired to | express yourself in the past is very likely linked to the natural |
D:10.3 | that the use you put these givens to, what you do with them, how you | express them in the world, is your unique and individual |
D:10.3 | allows expression of what is given to truly come through you and | express the Self, because joyous expression expresses the Self of |
D:13.11 | to be. All this means is that while you may feel unable to share or | express all that comes to you from unity, and while you may feel |
D:13.11 | comes to you from unity, and while you may feel unable to share or | express the authority and truth you know it represents, you will, by |

D:Day3.54 | share it. “If I had a great idea,” I would accept and receive it, | express it and share it. And yet you continue to think that if you |
D:Day3.54 | that if you had money or abundance, you would accept and receive it, | express it and share it. |
D:Day5.14 | will come to wholeness and you will be fully who you are and able to | express love fully. |

Tx:22.7 | vision would, of course, render this quite unnecessary. Yet if your | eyes are closed and you have called upon this thing to lead you, |

Tx:22.31 | error. The form it takes cannot conceal its emptiness from reason's | eyes. |
Tx:22.32 | and does not know if it is there or not. Everything which the body's | eyes can see is a mistake, an error in perception, a distorted |
Tx:22.33 | is a mistake, the form cannot prevent correction. The body's | eyes see only form. They cannot see beyond what they were made to |
Tx:22.34 | These | eyes, made not to see, will never see. For the idea they |
Tx:22.34 | What was its maker's goal but not to see? For this the body's | eyes are perfect means, but not for seeing. See how the body's eyes |
Tx:22.34 | eyes are perfect means, but not for seeing. See how the body's | eyes rest on externals and cannot go beyond. Watch how they stop at |
Tx:22.36 | would show you your forgiveness, be kept from you by what the body's | eyes can see. Let your awareness of your brother not be blocked by |
Tx:22.41 | you saw beyond the veil which you will bring to light the tired | eyes of those as weary now as once you were. How thankful will they |
Tx:22.49 | weight, solidity, and firmness of foundation. Yes, to the body's | eyes it looks like an enormous solid body, immovable as is a |
Tx:22.53 | end as easy as is the shift from hate to gratitude before forgiving | eyes. You will be sanctified by one another, using your bodies only |
Tx:22.58 | You will see your value through each other's | eyes, and each one is released as he beholds his savior in place of |
Tx:23.33 | must be seen as sanity. And fear, with ashen lips and sightless | eyes, blinded and terrible to look upon, is lifted to the throne of |
Tx:24.23 | but offers treachery to giver and receiver. Not one glance from | eyes it veils but looks on sight of death. Not one believer in its |
Tx:24.32 | 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 you might look on |
Tx:24.42 | Identify with Him, and what has He that you have not? He is your | eyes, your ears, your hands, your feet. How gentle are the sights He |
Tx:24.43 | your brother first, nor hated him before it hated you. The sin its | eyes behold in him and love to look upon, it saw in you and looks |
Tx:24.43 | with flesh already loosened from the bone and sightless holes for | eyes, is like yourself? |
Tx:24.44 | Rejoice you have no | eyes with which to see, no ears to listen, and no hands to hold nor |
Tx:24.46 | His brothers in Himself. He gives them vision for their sightless | eyes and sings to them of Heaven that their ears may hear no more the |
Tx:24.54 | It is His sinlessness that | eyes which see can look upon. It is His loveliness they see in |
Tx:24.54 | Him in Whom your brother lives and you along with him. Let not your | eyes be blinded by the veil of specialness that hides the face of |
Tx:24.59 | need of nothing, and unjoined with anything beyond the body. In its | eyes, you are a separate universe with all the power to hold itself |
Tx:24.70 | yourself. It is the means to make your wish come true. It gives the | eyes with which you look on it, the hands that feel it, and the ears |
Tx:24.71 | within its sight. Its course is sure when seen through its own | eyes. It grows and withers, flourishes and dies. And you cannot |
Tx:25.12 | Is it not evident that what the body's | eyes perceive fills you with fear? Perhaps you think you find a hope |
Tx:25.30 | between you and His gentleness. It is not there in His forgiving | eyes. And therefore it need not be there in yours. Sin is the fixed |
Tx:25.34 | where peace abides. This world you bring with you to all the weary | eyes and tired hearts that look on sin and beat its sad refrain. From |
Tx:25.38 | both each time you look on one another. He has not gone because your | eyes are closed. But what is there to see by searching for your |
Tx:25.38 | to see by searching for your savior, seeing Him through sightless | eyes? |
Tx:25.43 | The grace of God rests gently on forgiving | eyes, and everything they look on speaks of Him to the beholder. He |
Tx:25.44 | Eyes become used to darkness, and the light of brilliant day seems | |
Tx:25.44 | to darkness, and the light of brilliant day seems painful to the | eyes grown long accustomed to the dim effects perceived at twilight. |
Tx:25.44 | and more obscure seems easier to look upon; less painful to the | eyes than what is wholly clear and unambiguous. Yet this is not what |
Tx:25.44 | eyes than what is wholly clear and unambiguous. Yet this is not what | eyes are for. And who can say that he prefers the darkness and |
Tx:25.44 | to see? The wish to see calls down the grace of God upon your | eyes and brings the gift of light that makes sight possible. |
Tx:25.55 | But sin is equally insane within the sight of love, whose gentle | eyes would look beyond the madness and rest peacefully on truth. Each |
Tx:25.82 | miracles depend on justice. Not as it is seen through this world's | eyes, but as God knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight |

Tx:26.7 | he sees it not. You who would make a sacrifice of life and make your | eyes and ears bear witness to the death of God and of His holy Son, |

Tx:27.3 | upon God's Son. You hold a picture of your crucifixion before his | eyes that he may see his sins are writ in Heaven in your blood and |
Tx:27.6 | in love. And he will look on his forgiveness there and with healed | eyes will look beyond it to the innocence that he beholds in you. |
Tx:27.15 | can suffer. He holds not the proof of sin before his brother's | eyes. And thus he must have overlooked it and removed it from his |
Tx:27.34 | be. Forgiveness vanishes and symbols fade, and nothing which the | eyes have ever seen or ears have heard remains to be perceived. |
Tx:27.47 | saved it but stepped back because he was afraid of being healed? The | eyes of all the dying bring reproach, and suffering whispers, “What |
Tx:27.48 | blessing. Life is given you to give the dying world. And suffering | eyes no longer will accuse, but shine in thanks to you who blessing |
Tx:27.48 | you who blessing gave. The holy instant's radiance will light your | eyes and give them sight to see beyond all suffering and see Christ's |

Tx:28.51 | and other sights which can be seen and heard and understood. For | eyes and ears are senses without sense, and what they see and hear |
Tx:28.51 | make a witness to the world you want. Let not the body's ears and | eyes perceive these countless fragments seen within the gap which you |

Tx:31.64 | your world salvation will undo and let you see another world your | eyes could never find. Be not concerned how this could ever be. You |
Tx:31.66 | fit the picture as it was perceived before will change the world for | eyes that learn to see, because the concept of the self has |

W1:14.2 | The exercises for today are to be practiced with | eyes closed throughout. The mind searching period should be short, a |
W1:14.4 | With | eyes closed, think of all the horrors in the world that cross your |
W1:15.1 | “seeing” was made. This is the function you have given your body's | eyes. It is not seeing. It is image-making. It takes the place of |
W1:15.3 | Do not be afraid of them. They are signs that you are opening your | eyes at last. They will not persist, because they merely symbolize |
W1:15.4 | it to whatever you see around you, using its name and letting your | eyes rest on it as you say: |
W1:16.4 | the idea for today, search your mind for a minute or so, with | eyes closed, and actively seek not to overlook any “little” thought |
W1:17.2 | In applying today's idea, say to yourself, with | eyes open: |
W1:19.3 | searching which today's exercises require are to be undertaken with | eyes closed. The idea is to be repeated first, and then the mind |
W1:21.2 | periods, begin by repeating the idea to yourself. Then close your | eyes and search your mind carefully for situations past, present or |
W1:22.3 | at least five times today, for at least a minute each time. As your | eyes move slowly from one object to another, from one body to |
W1:23.6 | about you, repeat the idea slowly to yourself and then close your | eyes and devote about a minute to searching your mind for as many |
W1:24.4 | repeating today's idea, followed by searching the mind with closed | eyes for unresolved situations about which you are currently |
W1:25.6 | far, “important” or “unimportant,” “human” or “unhuman.” With your | eyes resting on each subject you so select, say, for example: |
W1:25.8 | Say this quite slowly, without shifting your | eyes until you have completed the statement. Then move on to the next |
W1:26.3 | that you are vulnerable, their effect is to weaken you in your own | eyes. Thus they have attacked your perception of yourself. And |
W1:26.6 | should begin with repeating the idea for today, then closing your | eyes and reviewing the unresolved situations whose outcomes are |
W1:28.8 | the applications should include the name of the subject which your | eyes happen to light on, and you should rest your eyes on it while |
W1:28.8 | subject which your eyes happen to light on, and you should rest your | eyes on it while saying: |
W1:30.4 | by space and distance, but it does not depend on the body's | eyes at all. The mind is its only source. |
W1:30.5 | devote several practice periods to applying today's idea with your | eyes closed, using whatever subjects come to mind and looking within |
W1:31.2 | slowly while repeating the idea two or three times. Then close your | eyes and apply the same idea to your inner world. You will escape |
W1:32.3 | around at the world you see as outside yourself. Then close your | eyes and look around your inner world. Try to treat them both as |
W1:33.2 | around the world you perceive as outside yourself, then close your | eyes and survey your inner thoughts with equal casualness. Try to |
W1:33.5 | quietly and repeat the idea to yourself several times. Closing your | eyes will probably help in this form of application. |
W1:34.2 | conducive to readiness. All applications should be done with your | eyes closed. It is your inner world to which the applications of |
W1:35.2 | What you see while you believe you are in it is seen through the | eyes of the image. This is not vision. Images cannot see. |
W1:35.4 | begin by repeating today's idea to yourself and then close your | eyes and search your mind for the various kinds of descriptive terms |
W1:35.4 | are equally unreal because you do not look upon yourself through the | eyes of holiness. |
W1:35.11 | occurs to you, merely repeat the idea to yourself with closed | eyes. |
W1:36.3 | First, close your | eyes and repeat the idea for today several times slowly. Then open |
W1:36.3 | and repeat the idea for today several times slowly. Then open your | eyes and look quite slowly about you, applying the idea specifically |
W1:36.5 | Several times during these practice periods, close your | eyes and repeat the idea to yourself. Then open your eyes and |
W1:36.5 | close your eyes and repeat the idea to yourself. Then open your | eyes and continue as before. |
W1:36.6 | For the shorter exercise periods, close your | eyes and repeat the idea; look about you as you repeat it again; and |
W1:36.6 | you repeat it again; and conclude with one more repetition with your | eyes closed. All applications should, of course, be made quite |
W1:37.6 | Then close your | eyes and apply the idea to any person who occurs to you, using his |
W1:37.8 | You may continue the practice period with your | eyes closed; you may open your eyes again and apply the idea for |
W1:37.8 | the practice period with your eyes closed; you may open your | eyes again and apply the idea for today to your outer world if you so |
W1:37.8 | period should conclude with a repetition of the idea with your | eyes closed and another following immediately with your eyes open. |
W1:37.8 | with your eyes closed and another following immediately with your | eyes open. |
W1:38.4 | to last a full five minutes, repeat the idea for today, close your | eyes, and then search your mind for any sense of loss or unhappiness |
W1:39.6 | as usual by repeating today's idea to yourself. Then with closed | eyes search out your unloving thoughts in whatever form they appear— |
W1:40.2 | You need not close your | eyes for the exercise periods, although you will probably find it |
W1:40.2 | may be in a number of situations during the day when closing your | eyes would not be appropriate. Do not miss a practice period because |
W1:41.5 | up if possible, sit quietly for some three to five minutes with your | eyes closed. At the beginning of the practice period, repeat today's |
W1:41.8 | use today's idea often, repeating it very slowly and preferably with | eyes closed. Think of what you are saying; what the words mean. |
W1:42.4 | Begin the practice period by repeating the idea for today slowly with | eyes open, looking about you. Then close your eyes and repeat the |
W1:42.4 | for today slowly with eyes open, looking about you. Then close your | eyes and repeat the idea again, quite slowly. After this, try to |
W1:42.7 | at all seem to come to mind. If such interferences occur, open your | eyes and repeat the thought once more while looking slowly about; |
W1:42.7 | repeat the thought once more while looking slowly about; close your | eyes, repeat the idea once more, and then continue to look for |
W1:42.8 | period alternating between slow repetitions of the idea with | eyes open, then closed, then open, and so on, than it is to strain in |
W1:43.5 | of these practice periods, repeat the idea to yourself with | eyes open. Then glance around you for a short time, applying the idea |
W1:43.8 | For the second and longer phase of the exercise period, close your | eyes, repeat today's idea again, and then let whatever relevant |
W1:43.9 | I see through the | eyes of forgiveness. I see the world as blessed. The world can show |
W1:43.11 | idea, or if you seem to be unable to think of anything, open your | eyes, repeat the first phase, and then try the second phase again. Do |
W1:44.5 | speaking, this is the release from hell. Perceived through the ego's | eyes, it is loss of identity and a descent into hell. |
W1:44.7 | Begin the practice period by repeating today's idea with your | eyes open and close them slowly, repeating the idea several times |
W1:44.9 | in any form, pause long enough to repeat today's idea, keeping your | eyes closed unless you are aware of fear. In that case, you will |
W1:44.9 | In that case, you will probably find it more reassuring to open your | eyes briefly. Try, however, to return to the exercises as soon as |
W1:44.11 | Throughout the day, repeat the idea often with | eyes open or closed as seems better to you at the time. Do not |
W1:45.6 | exercises for today by repeating the idea to yourself, closing your | eyes as you do so. Spend a fairly short period in thinking a few |
W1:46.3 | periods by repeating today's idea to yourself, as usual. Close your | eyes as you do so and spend a minute or two in searching your mind |
W1:47.4 | today, and longer and more frequent ones are urged. Close your | eyes and begin as usual by repeating today's idea. Then spend a |
W1:48.2 | repeat the idea as often as possible. You can use it with your | eyes open at any time and in any situation. It is strongly |
W1:48.2 | that you take a minute or so whenever possible to close your | eyes and repeat the idea slowly to yourself several times. It is |
W1:49.5 | Do not forget to repeat today's idea very frequently. Do so with your | eyes open when necessary, but closed when possible. And be sure that |
W1:49.5 | and repeat the idea for today slowly whenever you can, closing your | eyes on the world and realizing that you are inviting God's Voice to |
W1:R1.4 | and the related comments, the exercises should be done with your | eyes closed and when you are alone in a quiet place if possible. This |
W1:54.2 | from my thinking errors, so will the real world rise before my | eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My thoughts cannot be neither |
W1:58.2 | the innocence that is the truth about me. Seen through understanding | eyes, the holiness of the world is all I see, for I can picture only |
W1:59.3 | God is my strength. Vision is His gift. Let me not look to my own | eyes to see today. Let me be willing to exchange my pitiful illusion |
W1:59.4 | from Him. It is these I choose when I try to see through the body's | eyes. Yet the vision of Christ has been given me to replace them. It |
W1:60.6 | As I listen to God's Voice, I am sustained by His Love. As I open my | eyes, His love lights up the world for me to see. As I forgive, His |
W1:61.7 | think about these statements for a short while, preferably with your | eyes closed if the situation permits. Let a few related thoughts come |
W1:62.5 | As often as you can, closing your | eyes if possible, say to yourself: |
W1:63.5 | If you can close your | eyes, you will probably find it easier to let related thoughts come |
W1:64.1 | Son, taking on a physical appearance. It is this which the body's | eyes look upon. |
W1:64.2 | Nothing the body's | eyes seem to see can be anything but a form of temptation, since this |
W1:64.9 | once devote ten or 15 minutes to reflecting on this with closed | eyes. Related thoughts will come to help you if you remember the |
W1:64.11 | practice periods are required. At times, do the exercises with your | eyes closed, trying to concentrate on the thoughts you are applying. |
W1:64.11 | on the thoughts you are applying. At other times keep your | eyes open after reviewing the thoughts and look slowly and |
W1:65.5 | period, begin by reviewing the idea for today. Then close your | eyes, repeat the idea to yourself once again, and watch your mind |
W1:65.14 | Sometimes close your | eyes as you practice, and sometimes keep them open and look about |
W1:69.4 | Very quietly now, with your | eyes closed, try to let go of all the content which generally |
W1:70.10 | Then devote a few minutes with your | eyes closed to reviewing some of the external places where you have |
W1:72.14 | not listened to His Voice. We have used our grievances to close our | eyes and stop our ears. Now we would see and hear and learn. “What is |
W1:72.20 | Then wait a minute or so in silence, preferably with your | eyes closed, and listen for His answer. |
W1:74.11 | After you have cleared your mind in this way, close your | eyes and try to experience the peace to which your reality entitles |
W1:74.15 | to find what you are seeking. A minute or two every half-hour, with | eyes closed if possible, would be well spent on this today. |
W1:75.11 | there is a new beginning. Without the darkness of the past upon your | eyes, you cannot fail to see today. And what you see will be so |
W1:77.4 | quite confidently that you are entitled to miracles. Closing your | eyes, remind yourself that you are asking only for what is rightfully |
W1:78.1 | the miracle it would conceal. And as you raise it up before your | eyes, you will not see the miracle beyond. Yet all the while it waits |
W1:78.2 | wait before the shield of hate, but lay it down and gently lift our | eyes in silence to behold the Son of God. |
W1:78.10 | The body's | eyes are closed, and as you think of him who grieved you, let your |
W1:79.12 | all judgment about what the problem is. If possible, close your | eyes for a moment and ask what it is. You will be heard and you will |
W1:80.5 | let the peace that your acceptance brings be given you. Close your | eyes and receive your reward. Recognize that your problems have been |
W1:R2.2 | them over slowly, several times if you wish, and then close your | eyes and listen. Repeat the first phase if you find your mind |
W1:91.3 | to see what is not there instead. You do not doubt that the body's | eyes can see. You do not doubt the images they show you are reality. |
W1:91.7 | Miracles are seen in light. The body's | eyes do not perceive the light. But I am not a body. What am I? |
W1:91.13 | because Their strength is yours. Their strength becomes your | eyes that you may see. |
W1:91.15 | Miracles are seen in light. Let me not close my | eyes because of this. |
W1:92.1 | your idea of what seeing means is tied up with the body and its | eyes and brain. This is why you believe that you can change what you |
W1:92.1 | by putting little bits of glass or other clear material before your | eyes held in a frame or placed against the eye. |
W1:92.2 | beliefs that come from the conviction you are a body and the body's | eyes can see. You also believe the body's brain can think. If you but |
W1:92.2 | let it go. Yet this is no more foolish than to believe the body's | eyes can see, the brain can think. |
W1:92.3 | your weakness. It is your weakness that sees through the body's | eyes, peering about in darkness to behold the likeness of itself— |
W1:92.3 | sad, the poor, the starving, and the joyless. These are seen through | eyes which cannot see and cannot bless. |
W1:92.8 | and none who enters its abode can leave without a miracle before his | eyes and strength and light abiding in his heart. |
W1:92.9 | your seeing, so you do not dwell on idle shadows that the body's | eyes provide for self-deception. Strength and light unite in you, and |
W1:92.10 | today, and we will practice seeing in the light, closing the body's | eyes and asking truth to show us how to find the meeting place of |
W1:93.14 | Then try to devote at least a minute or so to closing your | eyes and realizing that this is a statement of the truth about you. |
W1:95.14 | Then close your | eyes and tell yourself again, slowly and thoughtfully, attempting to |
W1:105.10 | So tell yourself “God's peace and joy are mine,” and close your | eyes a while, and let His Voice assure you that the words you speak |
W1:108.2 | light which makes true vision possible is not the light the body's | eyes behold. It is a state of mind which has become so unified that |
W1:108.10 | Then close your | eyes, and for five minutes think of what you would hold out to |
W1:109.3 | it cannot solve. And no appearance but will turn to truth before the | eyes of you who rest in God. |
W1:109.6 | You rest today. And as you close your | eyes, sink into stillness. Let these periods of rest and respite |
W1:121.4 | no mistakes, but only sins. It looks upon the world with sightless | eyes and shrieks as it beholds its own projections rising to attack |
W1:121.11 | Now close your | eyes and see him in your mind and look at him a while. Try to |
W1:122.2 | All this forgiveness offers you, and more. It sparkles in your | eyes as you awake and gives you joy with which to meet the day. It |
W1:122.3 | which hides the face of Christ from those who look with unforgiving | eyes upon the world. It lets you recognize the Son of God and clears |
W1:122.8 | Open your | eyes today, and look upon a happy world of safety and of peace. |
W1:122.8 | take the place of hell. In quietness it rises up to greet your open | eyes and fill your heart with deep tranquility as ancient truths, |
W1:123.4 | in gratitude we lift our hearts above despair and raise our thankful | eyes, no longer looking downward to the dust. We sing the song of |
W1:124.4 | We feel Him in our hearts. Our minds contain His thoughts; our | eyes behold His loveliness in all we look upon. Today we see only the |
W1:124.11 | joy too deep for you to comprehend, a sight too holy for the body's | eyes to see, and yet you can be sure someday, perhaps today, perhaps |
W1:125.9 | above the thinking of the world and free your vision from the body's | eyes. Only be still and listen. You will hear the Word in which the |
W1:126.10 | In silence close your | eyes upon the world which does not understand forgiveness and seek |
W1:127.5 | not found in darkness and in death. Yet it is perfectly apparent to | eyes that see and ears that hear its Voice. |
W1:127.9 | the past behind us, never more to be remembered. And we raise our | eyes upon a different present, where a future shines unlike the past |
W1:128.7 | Give it ten minutes rest three times today. And when your | eyes are opened afterwards, you will not value anything you see as |
W1:129.9 | Then close your | eyes upon the world you see, and in the silent darkness watch the |
W1:129.10 | eyelids as you rest beyond the world of darkness. Here is light your | eyes cannot behold. And yet your mind can see it plainly and can |
W1:130.10 | For though it is perception, it is not the kind of seeing that your | eyes alone have ever seen before. And you will know God's strength |
W1:130.12 | Accept a little part of hell as real, and you have damned your | eyes and cursed your sight, and what you will behold is hell indeed. |
W1:131.14 | For several minutes watch your mind and see, although your | eyes are closed, the senseless world you think is real. Review the |
W1:134.7 | shrieks of sinners mad with guilt. It looks on them with quiet | eyes and merely says to them, “My brother, what you think is not the |
W1:137.4 | truth and always will remain exactly as it has forever been. Yet | eyes accustomed to illusions must be shown that what they look upon |
W1:138.12 | Before we close our | eyes in sleep tonight, we reaffirm the choice that we have made each |
W1:R4.10 | two ideas assigned to you to be reviewed that day. Then close your | eyes and say them slowly to yourself. There is no hurry now, for you |
W1:151.2 | see. You do not really question what is shown you through the body's | eyes. Nor do you ask why you believe it, even though you learned a |
W1:151.3 | you judge the world you see? You place pathetic faith in what your | eyes and ears report. You think your fingers touch reality and close |
W1:151.7 | He will not tell you that your brother should be judged by what your | eyes behold in him, nor what his body's mouth says to your ears, nor |
W1:155.1 | though you smile more frequently. Your forehead is serene; your | eyes are quiet. And the ones who walk the world as you do recognize |
W1:155.6 | that they hear you speak of nor illusion which you bring their | eyes to look on and their minds to grasp. Now can the truth, which |
W1:157.6 | give experience like this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in our | eyes which we can offer everyone that he may come the sooner to the |
W1:158.11 | likeness shines with its immortal love. We practice seeing with the | eyes of Christ today. And by the holy gifts we give, Christ's vision |
W1:161.7 | there is no death. Fear is insatiable, consuming everything its | eyes behold, seeing itself in everything, compelled to turn upon |
W1:161.9 | This do the body's | eyes behold in one whom Heaven cherishes, the angels love, and God |
W1:161.11 | you will not be willing to accept the witnesses your body's | eyes call forth. What you will see will sing to you of ancient |
W1:161.14 | Give me your blessing, holy Son of God. I would behold you with the | eyes of Christ, and see my perfect sinlessness in you. |
W1:163.2 | in its blighting grasp. All goals perceived but in its sightless | eyes. The frail, the helpless, and the sick bow down before its |
W1:163.9 | Our Father, bless our | eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we would look upon the |
W1:164.1 | to look upon what is forever there—not in our sight, but in the | eyes of Christ. He looks past time and sees eternity as represented |
W1:164.5 | in His judgment will a world unfold in perfect innocence before your | eyes. Now will you see it with the eyes of Christ. Now is its |
W1:164.5 | in perfect innocence before your eyes. Now will you see it with the | eyes of Christ. Now is its transformation clear to you. |
W1:165.5 | sight proves that you have exchanged your blindness for the seeing | eyes of Christ; your mind has come to lay aside denial and accept the |
W1:166.7 | is not you. You heed them not. You go on your appointed way, with | eyes cast down lest you might catch a glimpse of truth and be |
W1:167.10 | life is not as we imagine it. Who changes life because he shuts his | eyes or makes himself what he is not because he sleeps and sees in |
W1:170.12 | to a new world unburdened by its weight; beheld not in its sightless | eyes but in the vision that your choice restored to you. |
W1:170.13 | Now do your | eyes belong to Christ, and He looks through them. Now your voice |
W1:R5.11 | the words I speak and give them to the world. You are my voice, my | eyes, my feet, my hands, through which I save the world. The Self |
W1:181.5 | occur to us, our narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn our | eyes upon our own mistakes, which we will magnify and call our “sins.” |
W1:181.9 | when this is all we seek for in the name of true perception, are the | eyes of Christ inevitably ours. And the love He feels for us becomes |
W1:187.2 | For it is sure that if you give a finite thing away, your body's | eyes will not perceive it yours. Yet we have learned that things but |
W1:188.1 | wait for Heaven? Those who seek the light are merely covering their | eyes. The light is in them now. Enlightenment is but a recognition, |
W1:188.6 | Sit quietly and close your | eyes. The light within you is sufficient. It alone has power to give |
W1:189.1 | There is a light in you the world cannot perceive. And with its | eyes you will not see this light, for you are blinded by the world. |
W1:189.1 | not see this light, for you are blinded by the world. Yet you have | eyes to see it. It is there for you to look upon. It was not placed |
W1:189.3 | reveals. It is so different from the world you see through darkened | eyes of malice and of fear that one belies the other. Only one can be |
W1:191.12 | Then let the Son of God awaken from his sleep, and opening his holy | eyes return again to bless the world he made. In error it began. But |
W1:192.3 | so close to waking that the light of day already shines in them. And | eyes already opening behold the joyful sights their offerings contain. |
W1:192.7 | We are lost in mists of shifting dreams and fearful thoughts, our | eyes shut tight against the light, our minds engaged in worshipping |
W1:193.11 | an unforgiveness hiding in the mind which sees the pain through | eyes the mind directs. |
W1:200.3 | seek and seek again for hell, when you have but to look with open | eyes to find that Heaven lies before you, through a door that opens |
W1:200.10 | underfoot. And you look up and on toward Heaven, with the body's | eyes but serving for an instant longer now. Peace is already |
W1:R6.6 | a shorter path to the serenity and peace of God. We merely close our | eyes and then forget all that we thought we knew and understood. For |
W1:218.1 | me. My condemnation keeps my vision dark, and through my sightless | eyes I cannot see the vision of my glory. Yet today I can behold this |
W2:I.6 | given us by You. We look not backward now. We look ahead and fix our | eyes upon the journey's end. Accept these little gifts of thanks from |
W2:237.2 | Christ is my | eyes today, and His the ears which listen to the Voice of God today. |
W2:WIW.2 | born, for knowledge could not cause such insane thoughts. But | eyes deceive, and ears hear falsely. Now mistakes become quite |
W2:WIW.5 | must save the world. For we who made it must behold it through the | eyes of Christ, that what was made to die be restored to Everlasting |
W2:WIS.1 | where the truth should be and where it really is. Sin gave the body | eyes, for what is there the sinless would behold? What need have they |
W2:263.2 | of Heaven, let us look on all we see through holy vision and the | eyes of Christ. Let all appearances seem pure to us that we may pass |
W2:270.1 | Your gift to me, and it has power to translate all that the body's | eyes behold into the sight of a forgiven world. How glorious and |
W2:270.2 | hearts, and through them peace will come to everyone. Christ is our | eyes today. And through His sight, we offer healing to the world |
W2:WIC.2 | and dreams are over. He remains untouched by anything the body's | eyes perceive. For though in Him His Father placed the means for your |
W2:290.1 | I look upon what is not there, my present happiness is all I see. | Eyes that begin to open see at last. And I would have Christ's vision |
W2:WIRW.1 | for what is opposite to what you made. Your world is seen through | eyes of fear and brings the witnesses of terror to your mind. The |
W2:WIRW.1 | to your mind. The real world cannot be perceived except through | eyes forgiveness blesses, so they see a world where terror is |
W2:WIRW.2 | The real world shows a world seen differently, through quiet | eyes and with a mind at peace. Nothing but rest is there. There are |
W2:WIRW.4 | of sin and guilt is over and God's Son no longer sleeps. His waking | eyes perceive the sure reflection of his Father's Love, the certain |
W2:293.2 | from all past mistakes. And I would see only this world before my | eyes today. |
W2:295.1 | Christ asks that He may use my | eyes today and thus redeem the world. He asks this gift that He may |
W2:295.2 | a gift of me, and one I give that it be given me. Help me to use the | eyes of Christ today and thus allow the Holy Spirit's love to bless |
W2:WISC.5 | Second Coming will be soon, but do not rest with that. It needs your | eyes and ears and hands and feet. It needs your voice. And most of |
W2:301.1 | only what You will. Let me today behold it uncondemned through happy | eyes forgiveness has released from all distortion. Let me see Your |
W2:302.1 | Father, our | eyes are opening at last. Your holy world awaits us, as our sight is |
W2:304.1 | outward. I would bless the world by looking on it through the | eyes of Christ. And I will look upon the certain signs that all my |
W2:313.1 | love will come wherever it is asked. This vision is Your gift. The | eyes of Christ look on a world forgiven. In His sight are all its |
W2:WIM.3 | Forgiveness is the home of miracles. The | eyes of Christ deliver them to all they look upon in mercy and in |
W2:WAI.4 | Ours are the | eyes through which Christ's vision sees a world redeemed from every |
W2:352.1 | and judges not. Through this I come to You. Judgment will bind my | eyes and make me blind. Yet love, reflected in forgiveness here, |
W2:E.6 | we would love him, and He teaches us how to behold him through His | eyes and love him as He does. You do not walk alone. God's angels |
M:4.1 | teachers are not at all alike. They do not look alike to the body's | eyes, they come from vastly different backgrounds, their experiences |
M:8.1 | standards completely upsets the mental balance. What the body's | eyes behold is only conflict. Look not to them for peace and |
M:8.3 | in the world outside. Yet it is surely the mind that judges what the | eyes behold. It is the mind that interprets the eyes' messages and |
M:8.3 | that judges what the eyes behold. It is the mind that interprets the | eyes' messages and gives them “meaning.” And this meaning does not |
M:8.3 | hierarchy of values is projected outward, and it sends the body's | eyes to find it. The body's eyes will never see except through |

M:8.6 | The body's | eyes will continue to see differences, but the mind which has let |

C:P.40 | you could not see the transformation take place “with your own two | eyes,” you would not believe that the two seemingly disparate |
C:P.41 | It is a nice fairytale, an acceptable myth, but until your body's | eyes can behold the proof, this is what it will remain. This is the |
C:P.41 | not to awaken from. It is as if you have said, I will not open my | eyes until someone proves to me that they will see when they are |

C:2.1 | to see love where it already exists. The body's eyes are not the | eyes with which love can be recognized. Christ's vision is. For only |
C:2.10 | is the Christ in you. How could it be anything but love, or see with | eyes other than those of love? Would you expect any decent human |
C:2.10 | Yet the Christ in you does not weep, for the Christ in you sees with | eyes of love. The difference is the eyes of love see not the misery |
C:2.10 | for the Christ in you sees with eyes of love. The difference is the | eyes of love see not the misery or despair. They are not there! This |
C:3.4 | love and God are there, but they are not the form that your body's | eyes see. Just as these words you see upon this page are symbols only |
C:3.5 | your deepest imaginings. Yet you persist in wanting only what your | eyes can see and hands can hold. You call these things real and all |
C:3.5 | You call these things real and all else unreal. You can close your | eyes and believe that you are in the dark, but you will not believe |
C:3.5 | but you will not believe that you are no longer real. Close your | eyes on all that you have become accustomed to seeing. And you will |
C:3.6 | In the light that comes only to | eyes that no longer see, you will find the Christ who abides in you. |

C:3.14 | is where this learning enters and will stay. Your heart is now your | eyes and ears. Your mind can remain within your concept of the brain, |
C:5.7 | of things unseen before but visible to your heart if not your | eyes. Your heart knows love without a vision of it. You give it form |
C:5.15 | of yourself, making it possible to look upon it with your body's | eyes. The one you do not see and do not believe in is the one you |
C:8.6 | senses. Thus, the sight of a lovely sunset can bring tears to your | eyes. The slightest contact between your hand and the skin of a baby |
C:8.28 | creation can be so opposite to it? How can memory so deceive the | eyes, and yet fail to deceive the heart? |
C:8.29 | This is the truth of your existence, an existence in which your | eyes deceive you but your heart believes not in the deception. Your |
C:8.29 | the deception. Your days are but evidence of this truth. What your | eyes behold will one day deceive you while what your heart beholds |
C:9.6 | transmitter of information yet it carries additional tools such as | eyes and ears to enhance its communication and to control what goes |
C:9.7 | its own effort, a desire to see everything but only through its own | eyes, a desire to be known but only through what it would choose to |
C:9.15 | the surface of your self. Peel back the first level of what your | eyes allow you to observe and you will find fear lurking there. The |
C:10.14 | proof available would say that you are wrong. All the proof of your | eyes and ears, as well as that of science, would say you are your |
C:10.27 | You will soon develop an ability to see without your body's | eyes. This, too, will seem like a silly game at first, a trick of |
C:10.30 | body. Like the thoughts you neither see nor hear with your body's | eyes or ears, these feelings too will not depend upon your body's |
C:14.12 | the world you have made if you are but willing to look at it with | eyes that truly see. It is the magnifying glass that will allow you |
C:16.4 | innocence in which they were created and remain, but with the | eyes of judgment. That you have judged and found the ones you love |
C:18.8 | seemingly trapped upon the screen, viewing everything from the two | eyes of the one projected there. Again, this is but what this |
C:20.2 | and the love. Drink in the safety and the rest. Close your | eyes and begin to see with an imagination that is beyond thought and |
C:20.3 | naming. No “I” resides here. You have given up the vision of your | eyes and the “I” of your ego. You are loosed of bounds, no longer a |
C:20.8 | And now we begin to see with the | eyes of our heart. We are no longer looking out but looking in. All |
C:21.3 | thing and another. You thus can begin to quit relying on your body's | eyes to distinguish the true from the false, the real from the unreal. |
T1:5.3 | is illusion, you cannot still your fear of it nor tear your | eyes away from it or remove from it the feelings of your heart. While |
T2:4.19 | heart alone can hear. As I have said, your heart has now become your | eyes and ears. Your heart hears only one call, one voice, the |
T3:14.5 | life. As you begin to dwell in the House of Truth and see with the | eyes of love, you will see far less about the life you lead that you |
T3:14.6 | As you see newly with the | eyes of love, you will be much more likely to see love everywhere |
T3:18.9 | will now be instructed by the thought system of the truth. Thus your | eyes will learn to observe only the truth, even unto seeing what |
T3:18.10 | a reflection of the internal world. Thus you can observe with your | eyes closed as easily as you can observe with your eyes open. You can |
T3:18.10 | observe with your eyes closed as easily as you can observe with your | eyes open. You can observe by having an idea of another's health, |
T3:22.8 | to observe. The act of observation that you are able to do with your | eyes closed is the observation of what is. This will relate to the |
T4:2.8 | of awareness. You must realize that if you were to see into the | eyes and hearts of any human from any time with true vision, you |
T4:2.30 | You expect yourself to still see with the | eyes of separation rather than with the shared vision of which I |
T4:2.31 | you will know with an inner knowing that will aid the sight of your | eyes? |
T4:2.32 | seeing relationship and union. It is the opposite of seeing with the | eyes and the attitude of separation. It is seeing with an expectation |
T4:5.11 | the choice to be who you are. You are shown in ways that the body's | eyes were unable to see, the glory of your true nature. You are given |
