W1:66.4  practice period today has as its purpose your acceptance of the  fact that not only is there a very real connection between the
W1:71.12  to your willingness to hear His Voice. Refuse not to hear. The very  fact that you are doing the exercises proves that you have some
W1:72.2 The ego's fundamental wish is to replace God. In  fact, the ego is the physical embodiment of this wish. For it is this
W1:72.6  body's apparent reality makes this view of God quite convincing. In  fact, if the body were real, it would be difficult indeed to escape
W1:77.5  done. In doing this, you do not really ask for anything. You state a  fact that cannot be denied.
W1:77.6  Holy Spirit cannot but assure you that your request is granted. The  fact that you accepted must be so. There is no room for doubt and
W1:77.6  real question at last. The answer is a simple statement of a simple  fact. You will receive the assurance that you seek.
W1:77.7  will be frequent and will also be devoted to a reminder of a simple  fact. Tell yourself often today:

M:17.5  this can hardly be a fact is obvious. Yet that it can be believed as  fact is surely so. And herein lies the birthplace of guilt. Who

M:17.9  there, yet is the anger certain witness that you do believe in it as  fact. Now is escape impossible until you see you have responded to

Tx:17.67  because your faith in one another was so limited and little. Your  faith must grow to meet the goal that has been set. The goal's
Tx:17.67  goal's reality will call this forth, for you will see that peace and  faith will not come separately. What situation can you be in
Tx:17.67  will not come separately. What situation can you be in without  faith and remain faithful to each other?

Tx:17.73 You call for  faith because of Him Who walks with you in every situation. You are
Tx:17.73  set apart from loneliness because the truth has come. Its call for  faith is strong. Use not your faithlessness against it, for it calls
Tx:17.74  the same suspension of faithlessness, withheld and left unused, that  faith might answer to the call of truth. The holy instant is the
Tx:17.74  of every relationship and every situation, seen as a whole.  Faith has accepted every aspect of the situation, and faithlessness
Tx:17.75  Let it encompass every situation and bring you peace. Not even  faith is asked of you, for truth asks nothing. Let it enter, and it
Tx:17.75  Let it enter, and it will call forth and secure for you the  faith you need for peace. But rise you not against it, for against

Tx:19.5  rise between them. Faithlessness is wholly dedicated to illusions;  faith wholly to truth. Partial dedication is impossible. Truth is the
Tx:19.9  which seems to be justified by its results. For by withholding  faith, you see what is unworthy of it and cannot look beyond the
Tx:19.10 To have  faith is to heal. It is the sign that you have accepted the Atonement

Tx:19.12  seen already forgiven, free of all the guilt he laid upon himself.  Faith sees him only now because it looks not to the past to judge
Tx:19.12  witnesses unto its coming and to return their messages to you.  Faith is as easily exchanged for knowledge as is the real world. For
Tx:19.12  Faith is as easily exchanged for knowledge as is the real world. For  faith arises from the Holy Spirit's perception and is the sign you

Tx:19.13 Your holy relationship, with its new purpose, offers you  faith to give unto each other. Your faithlessness had driven you

Tx:19.15  will keep your little kingdoms barren and separate, so will  faith help the Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the most holy
Tx:19.15  the ground for the most holy garden which He would make of it. For  faith brings peace, and so it calls on truth to enter and make lovely

Tx:21.26  what you have made can tell you what you see and feel and place your  faith in its ability to do so, you are denying your Creator and

Tx:21.32  sees. And when you wander, He reminds you there is but one. His  faith and His belief and vision are all for you. And when you have

Tx:21.33  Faithlessness is not a lack of faith, but faith in nothing.  Faith given to illusions does not lack power, for by it does the Son

Tx:21.35  Faith and belief become attached to vision, as all the means that

Tx:24.34 Specialness is a lack of trust in anyone except yourself.  Faith is invested in yourself alone. Everything else becomes your

Tx:11.60  into it, and the Spirit of God's Son shines in the Mind of the  Father and becomes one with it. Very gently does God shine upon

Tx:11.76  for myself alone? And would eternal life have been given me of the  Father unless He had also given it to you? When you learn to make
Tx:11.77 Do you really believe that you can kill the Son of God? The  Father has hidden His Son safely within Himself and kept him far away
Tx:11.77  far away from your destructive thoughts, but you know neither the  Father nor the Son because of them. You attack the real world every
Tx:11.78 God's Son is as safe as his  Father, for the Son knows his Father's protection and cannot fear.
Tx:11.78  you chose to attack him, and he disappeared from your sight into his  Father. He did not change, but you did. For a split mind and all
Tx:11.78  did. For a split mind and all its works were not created by the  Father and could not live in the knowledge of Him.
Tx:11.82  all of it. He has remembered you because He forgot not the  Father.
Tx:11.84  The Atonement is but the way back to what was never lost. Your  Father could not cease to love His Son.

Tx:11.87  drove him out of paradise. For in that belief, the knowledge of the  Father was lost, since only those who do not understand Him could
Tx:11.89  wills to remove all guilt from his mind that he may remember his  Father in peace. For peace and guilt are antithetical, and the Father
Tx:11.89  his Father in peace. For peace and guilt are antithetical, and the  Father can be remembered only in peace. Love and guilt cannot

Tx:12.9  no dark cloud will remain between you and the remembrance of your  Father, for you will remember His guiltless Son, who did not die
Tx:12.12  by removing the dark cloud that obscures it, your love for your  Father would impel you to answer His call and leap into Heaven. You
Tx:12.18  so dear, is your real call for help. For you call for love to your  Father as your Father calls you to Himself. In that place which you
Tx:12.18  real call for help. For you call for love to your Father as your  Father calls you to Himself. In that place which you have hidden, you

Tx:12.20  for the request was alien to Him, and you could not ask this of a  Father Who truly loved His Son. Therefore you made of Him an unloving
Tx:12.20  peace of God's Son was shattered, for he no longer understood his  Father. He feared what he had made, but still more did he fear his
Tx:12.20  He feared what he had made, but still more did he fear his real  Father, having attacked his own glorious equality with Him.
Tx:12.21  to his demands except by departing in peace and returning to the  Father? If the Son did not wish to remain in peace, he could not
Tx:12.39 Little children, would you offer this to your  Father? For if you offer it to yourself, you are offering it to
Tx:12.40  worlds, for as we are united, so would we unite with them. The  Father welcomes all of us in gladness, and gladness is what we
Tx:12.42  you, and He would extend it. And He will not return unto the  Father until He has extended your perception even unto Him. And there
Tx:12.42  Him. And there perception is no more, for He has returned you to the  Father with Him.
Tx:12.43  vision He beholds Himself. And seeing what He is, He knows His  Father. Beyond your darkest dreams, He sees God's guiltless Son
Tx:12.43  Him, for His vision is His gift of love to you, given Him of the  Father for you.

Tx:12.55  you have given it. And here will everything remind you of your  Father and His Holy Son. Light is unlimited and spreads across this
Tx:12.57  given you the gifts He gave. God's Son is still as loving as his  Father. Continuous with his Father, he has no past apart from Him.
Tx:12.57  God's Son is still as loving as his Father. Continuous with his  Father, he has no past apart from Him. So he has never ceased to be
Tx:12.67  is your awakening to what you have not lost. Praise, then, the  Father for the perfect sanity of His most holy Son.
Tx:12.68 Your  Father knoweth that you have need of nothing. In Heaven this is so,
Tx:12.76  how to remember you. Thus does the Son of God give thanks unto his  Father for his purity.
Tx:13.4 Apart from the  Father and the Son, the Holy Spirit has no function. He is not
Tx:13.6  and equal in their holiness. And He will offer them unto His  Father as they were offered unto Him. There is one miracle, as
Tx:13.6  was is God's most holy Son, created in the One Reality that is his  Father. Christ's vision is His gift to you. His Being is His Father's
Tx:13.7  are part of it and all of it, need only realize that it is of the  Father, not of you. Your role in the redemption leads you to it by
Tx:13.8  time will be over, and we will all unite in the eternity of God the  Father. The holy light you saw outside yourself in every miracle you
Tx:13.8  in you, your creations will be there with you, as you are in your  Father.
Tx:13.11 Guilt remains the only thing that hides the  Father, for guilt is the attack upon His Son. The guilty always
Tx:13.17  the Atonement, shining in quiet and in peace upon the altar to your  Father.
Tx:13.19 Within you is the holy sign of perfect faith your  Father has in you. He does not value you as you do. He knows Himself
Tx:13.24  is welcome to you as you would have yourself be welcome to your  Father, you will see no guilt in you. For you will have accepted the
Tx:13.27  within and seen the radiance there, he will remember how much his  Father loves him. And it will seem incredible that he has ever
Tx:13.27  loves him. And it will seem incredible that he has ever thought his  Father loved him not and looked upon him as condemned. The moment
Tx:13.28  to the holy place where you will see the light. The altar to your  Father is as pure as He Who raised it to Himself. Nothing can keep
Tx:13.29  fear in love, for love is guiltless. You who have always loved your  Father can have no fear for any reason to look within and see your
Tx:13.31  be still. In quiet look upon his holiness and offer thanks unto his  Father that no guilt has ever touched him.
Tx:13.32  for what you see will banish guilt forever. I thank You,  Father, for the purity of Your most holy Son, whom You have created
Tx:13.33  I offer unto it. My faith in you is strong as all the love I give my  Father. My trust in you is without limit and without the fear that
Tx:13.33  limit and without the fear that you will hear me not. I thank the  Father for your loveliness and for the many gifts that you will let
Tx:13.34 Praise be unto you who make the  Father one with His own Son. Alone we are all lowly, but together we
Tx:13.34  will be so purified that it is fitting as a hymn of praise unto your  Father. See only praise of Him in what He has created, for He will
Tx:13.40  and only this. Fear not the Holy Spirit will fail in what your  Father has given Him to do. The Will of God can fail in nothing.
Tx:13.52  by the capricious and unholy whim of death and murder that your  Father shared not with you. You have set yourselves the task of
Tx:13.67  manifest and sharing it. Let me bring peace to God's Son from his  Father.
Tx:13.79  of God's Son, whom He created holy, for to do so is to evaluate his  Father and judge against Him. And you will feel guilty for this
Tx:13.81  alone without you. And so He gives you what is yours because your  Father would have you share it with Him. In everything be led by Him
Tx:13.86  first in time means nothing, but the First in eternity is God the  Father, Who is both First and One. Beyond the First, there is no
Tx:13.88  your most holy mind be undone for you and stand in grace before your  Father, He will give Himself to you as He has always done. Giving
Tx:13.91  attempt, which cheats you of the joy of living with your God and  Father, and awaking gladly to His love and holiness, which join
Tx:14.1  for knowing Him. Accepting His Son as guilty is denial of the  Father so complete that knowledge is swept away from recognition in
Tx:14.2  for Him and for yourselves. You cannot understand how much your  Father loves you, for there is no parallel in your experience of the
Tx:14.3 The Children of Heaven live in the light of the blessing of their  Father because they know that they are sinless. The Atonement was
Tx:14.3  of the Son of God. It does not teach you what you are or what your  Father is. The Holy Spirit, Who remembers this for you, merely
Tx:14.7 Blessed Son of a wholly blessing  Father, joy was created for you. Who can condemn whom God has
Tx:14.8  separation slip away and full communication be restored between the  Father and the Son.
Tx:14.13  are you who teach with me. Our power comes not of us but of our  Father. In guiltlessness we know Him, as He knows us guiltless. I
Tx:14.20  means which you have made for breaking your communication with your  Father. The Holy Spirit reinterprets it as a means of reestablishing
Tx:14.32  Whom He would save for glory is saved for it. He has promised the  Father that through Him you would be released from littleness to
Tx:14.33  with the one promise given unto Him to lay upon the altar to your  Father and His Son. No altar stands to God without His Son. And
Tx:14.33  worthy of both but will be replaced by gifts wholly acceptable to  Father and to Son. Can you offer guilt to God? You cannot, then,
Tx:14.34  be divided cannot cease. The holy meeting place of the unseparated  Father and His Son lies in the Holy Spirit and in you. All
Tx:14.34  here. Unbroken and uninterrupted love flows constantly between the  Father and the Son, as both would have it be. And so it is.
Tx:14.36  and by His creations. In the holy meeting place are joined the  Father and His creations, and the creations of His Son with them
Tx:14.37 The link with which the  Father joins Himself to those He gives the power to create like Him
Tx:14.37  together with the gift of God, and only what is worthy of the  Father will be accepted by the Son, for whom it was intended. To whom
Tx:14.38  is the Holy Spirit's only function. Keep not your making from your  Father, for hiding it has cost you knowledge of Him and of
Tx:14.47  only perception the Son of God accepts. And thus, remembrance of his  Father dawns on him, and he can no longer be satisfied with anything
Tx:14.55  no thought you hold is for yourself. If you would remember your  Father, let the Holy Spirit order your thoughts and give only the
Tx:14.63  but one thing: you think you do not will for God's Son what His  Father wills for him. Every dark lesson teaches this in one form or
Tx:14.63  you do not accept and hide, teaches you that you will with the  Father unto His Son.
Tx:14.67  has been provided for you. God's Son can make no needs His  Father will not meet if he but turn to Him ever so little. Yet He
Tx:14.71  here, and you will remember that you have always created like your  Father. The miracle of creation has never ceased, having the holy
Tx:15.14  enough to transcend all of the ego's making and ascend unto your  Father.
Tx:15.26  without His Son, and His Son cannot be content with less than his  Father has given him. We asked you once before, “Would you be hostage
Tx:15.28  then, with littleness, in the name of Christ, eternal Host unto His  Father.
Tx:15.31  is not of this world because it is in you. And you are of your  Father. Let us join in honoring you, who must remain forever beyond
Tx:15.32 Decide with me, who have decided to abide with you. I will as my  Father wills, knowing His Will is constant and at peace forever with
Tx:15.32  no less, remembering that everything I learned is yours. What my  Father loves, I love as He does, and I can no more accept it as what
Tx:15.38  you learn how perfect and immaculate is the holy altar on which your  Father has placed Himself? This you will recognize in the holy
Tx:15.46  For to experience yourself as alone is to deny the oneness of the  Father and his Son and thus to attack reality.
Tx:15.59  What you find difficult to accept is the fact that, like your  Father, you are an idea. And like Him, you can give yourself
Tx:15.63  ideas minds can communicate. If you would give yourself as your  Father gives His Self, you will learn to understand Selfhood. And
Tx:15.65  and always obscured by it is the powerful attraction of the  Father for His Son. There is no other love that can satisfy you,
Tx:15.81  never leave. The loneliness of God's Son is the loneliness of his  Father. Refuse not the awareness of your completion and seek not to
Tx:15.82  are joined in God through Christ, where they become like to their  Father. For Christ knows of no separation from His Father, Who is His
Tx:15.82  like to their Father. For Christ knows of no separation from His  Father, Who is His one relationship, in which He gives as His Father
Tx:15.82  His Father, Who is His one relationship, in which He gives as His  Father gives to Him.
Tx:15.90  weak and dim and limited, for you have attempted to separate the  Father from the Son and limit their communication. Seek not Atonement
Tx:15.92 It is in your power in time to delay the perfect union of the  Father and the Son. For in this world, the attraction of guilt does
Tx:15.101  to protect yourself from where it is not. Your brothers and your  Father have become very fearful to you. And you would bargain with
Tx:15.103  our relationship, which is as innocent as our relationship with our  Father, and as powerful. Pain will be brought to us and disappear in
Tx:15.104  of your relationship with God. Through guilt you exclude your  Father and your brothers from yourself. Through peace you invite them
Tx:15.108  Christ, which I give you that you may give it and return it to the  Father, Who gave it to me. For in the time of Christ, communication
Tx:15.109  Wholeness as we welcome Him into ourselves. Those who receive the  Father are one with Him, being host to Him Who created them. And by
Tx:15.109  created them. And by allowing Him to enter, the remembrance of the  Father enters with Him, and with Him they remember the only
Tx:16.27  will learn His power and strength and purity, and love Him as His  Father does. His Kingdom has no limits and no end, and there is
Tx:16.39  your own sense of completion and thus denies the wholeness of your  Father. Every fantasy, be it of love or hate, deprives you of
Tx:16.41 Your  Father can no more forget the truth in you than you can fail to
Tx:16.81 Forgive us our illusions,  Father, and help us to accept our true relationship with You in which
Tx:17.7  which the Holy Spirit loves to look upon and which He thanks the  Father for. He was created to see this for you until you learn to
Tx:17.42  and know it to be true. Let us ascend in peace together to the  Father by giving Him ascendance in our minds. We will gain
Tx:17.79  for your relationship, you became givers of peace as surely as your  Father gave peace to you. For the goal of peace cannot be accepted
Tx:18.49  of Heaven is the dwelling-place of the Son of God, who left not his  Father and dwells not apart from Him. Heaven is not a place nor a
Tx:19.11  the gracious acknowledgment of everyone as a Son of your most loving  Father, loved by Him like you and therefore loved by you as yourself.
Tx:19.12  offer to the Son of God through Him, and wholly acceptable to his  Father as to him. And therefore offered you.
Tx:19.20  is this doctrine which replaces the reality of the Son of God as his  Father created him and willed that he be forever. Is this humility?
Tx:19.23  present, and his future. For he has somehow managed to corrupt his  Father and changed His Mind completely. Mourn, then, the death of
Tx:19.39  gently before His Creator in the name of His most holy Son. And the  Father will accept them in His Name. What need is there of seeing in
Tx:19.63  fear. You want salvation, not the pain of guilt. And you want your  Father, not a little mound of clay, to be your home. In your holy
Tx:19.66  itself. Salvation flows from deep within the home you offered to my  Father and to me. And we are there together in the quiet communion in
Tx:19.66  to me. And we are there together in the quiet communion in which the  Father and the Son are joined. Oh come ye faithful to the holy union
Tx:19.66  and the Son are joined. Oh come ye faithful to the holy union of the  Father and Son in you! And keep you not apart from what is offered
Tx:19.76  the Holy Spirit, too, is a communication medium, receiving from the  Father and offering His messages unto the Son. Like the ego, the Holy
Tx:19.85  against the ego's savage wish to kill. My brothers, children of our  Father, this is a dream of death. There is no funeral, no dark
Tx:19.90  held no attraction for you? Very simply, you would remember your  Father. The Creator of life, the Source of everything that lives, the
Tx:19.90  The Creator of life, the Source of everything that lives, the  Father of the universe and of the universe of universes and of
Tx:19.93  lifted so you could look upon the face of Christ and join Him in His  Father.
Tx:19.107  of God's Son and let him rise again to glad remembrance of his  Father, Who knows no sin, no death, but only life eternal.
Tx:19.108  you offer to the Son of God in thanks for what he is and what his  Father created him to be.
Tx:19.110  and place the Son of God safely within the sure protection of his  Father. Here is the only purpose that gives this world and the long
Tx:20.27  see God within His Son and look unto the Son to lead them to the  Father. And where else would they go but where they will to be? Each
Tx:20.27  where they will to be? Each of you now will lead the other to the  Father as surely as God created His Son holy and kept him so. In your
Tx:20.37  in a holy relationship. There he begins to find the certainty his  Father has in him. And there he finds his function of restoring his
Tx:20.40  want except his offering? His worth has been established by his  Father, and you will recognize it as you receive his Father's gift
Tx:20.44  to him and know it rests in safety? He looks upon himself not as his  Father knows him. And yet it is impossible the confidence of God
Tx:20.45  the Son of God invented an unholy relationship between him and his  Father. His real relationship is one of perfect union and unbroken
Tx:20.45  broken into fragments, and full of fear. The one created by his  Father is wholly self-encompassing and self-extending. The one he
Tx:20.54  reflects the true relationship the Son of God has with his  Father in reality. The Holy Spirit rests within it in the certainty
Tx:20.57  can they long withhold the memory of their relationship with their  Father from themselves and keep remembrance of His love apart from
Tx:20.70  not. And as you look upon each other, you will see an altar to your  Father, holy as Heaven, glowing with radiant purity and sparkling
Tx:21.11  of God, whom you know well. Here is the sight of him who knows his  Father. Here is the memory of what you are—a part of this, with all
Tx:21.11  to you as is this ancient hymn [of love] the Son of God sings to his  Father still.
Tx:21.26  has power to make you what it wills, you are confusing Son and  Father, effect and Source.
Tx:21.28 Yet the truth is you were both created by a loving  Father Who created you together and as one. See what “proves”
Tx:21.28  between you, keeping you from each other and separate from your  Father, you made in secret, and the instant of release has come to
Tx:21.64  by your choice that he is damned—separate from you and from his  Father forever and without a hope of safe return. You teach him this,
Tx:21.68  blessing. The gratitude he offers you reminds you of the thanks your  Father gives you for completing Him. And here alone does reason tell
Tx:21.68  does reason tell you that you can understand what you must be. Your  Father is as close to you as is your brother. Yet what is there that
Tx:22.15  other as His chosen home, for here you will with Him and with His  Father. This is your Father's Will for you, and yours with His. And
Tx:22.47  and what can separate whom He has joined as one with Him? It is your  Father Whom you would defend against. Yet it remains impossible to
Tx:22.54  than the sun which lights the sky you see, is chosen of your  Father as a means for His own plan. Be thankful that it serves yours
Tx:22.59 What can it be but universal blessing to look on what your  Father loves with charity? Extension of forgiveness is the Holy
Tx:22.61 Who can attack the Son of God and not attack his  Father? How can God's Son be weak and frail and easily destroyed
Tx:22.61  can God's Son be weak and frail and easily destroyed unless his  Father is? You do not see that every sin and every condemnation which
Tx:22.61  condemnation which you perceive and justify is an attack upon your  Father. And that is why it has not happened nor could be real. You
Tx:22.61  real. You do not see that this is your attempt because you think the  Father and the Son are separate. And you must think that they are
Tx:22.62  attack a part of the creation without the whole, the Son without the  Father, and to attack another without yourself or hurt yourself
Tx:23.11  is not himself and not his Father's Son. For this, the memory of his  Father must be forgotten. It is forgotten in the body's life, and
Tx:23.15  be crowned as real, the other vanquished and despised. Here will the  Father never be remembered. Yet no illusion can invade His home and
Tx:23.23 Think what this seems to do to the relationship between the  Father and the Son. Now it appears that they can never be one again.
Tx:23.49  extension, and what is His must be His Son's as well. Either the  Father and the Son are murderers or neither is. Life makes not
Tx:23.53  battle still are gone and not perceived. The body stands between the  Father and the Heaven He created for His Son because it has no
Tx:24.8  that will not hurt you? Your brother is your friend because his  Father created him like you. There is no difference. You have been
Tx:24.10  are alike. You have no purpose that is not the same and none your  Father does not share with you. For your relationship has been made
Tx:24.14  Here is the self-made “savior,” the “creator” who creates unlike the  Father and which made His Son like to itself and not like unto Him.
Tx:24.17 The shining radiance of the Son of God—so like his  Father that the memory of Him springs instantly to mind. And with
Tx:24.17  the Son remembers his own creations, as like to him as he is to his  Father. And all the world he made and all his specialness and all the
Tx:24.31  the universe, the Source of life, of love and holiness, the perfect  Father of a perfect Son, for your illusions of your specialness. Here
Tx:24.33  of them. The print of nails are on your hands as well. Forgive your  Father. It was not His Will that you be crucified.
Tx:24.37  what comfort has ever been in them that you would keep the gift your  Father asks from Him and give it there instead? Given to Him, the
Tx:24.40  what He sees because He knows that it is one with Him and with His  Father. Specialness, too, takes joy in what it sees, although it is
Tx:24.49  before his holiness. See in him God's creation. For in him, his  Father waits for your acknowledgment that He created you as part of
Tx:24.50  there would be a lack in God, a Heaven incomplete, a Son without a  Father. There could be no universe and no reality. For what God wills
Tx:24.50  he has is yours because you are not separate from him nor from his  Father.
Tx:24.52  by the world, by time, and all appearances, you will not know the  Father nor yourself. For you will use the world for what is not its
Tx:24.61  know. To Him this judgment makes no sense at all, for only what His  Father wills is possible, and there is no alternative for Him to see.
Tx:24.62  reverence. This is your son, beloved of you as you are to your  Father. Yet it stands in place of your creations, who are son to
Tx:24.66 The  Father keeps what He created safe. You cannot touch it with the false
Tx:24.68 A co-creator with the  Father must have a Son. Yet must this Son have been created like
Tx:25.4  aspects of His holiness, which meet and join and raise Him to His  Father, whole and pure and worthy of His everlasting Love.
Tx:25.8  you to join the truth may reach to you through what you understand.  Father and Son and Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join
Tx:25.8  as One, as all your brothers join as one in truth. Christ and His  Father never have been separate, and Christ abides within your
Tx:25.9  where the error lies. Because His purpose still is one with both the  Father and the Son, He knows the Will of God and what you really
Tx:25.20  His praise of what He loves? God cherishes creation as the perfect  Father that He is. And so His joy is made complete when any part of
Tx:25.21  your brother, and you cannot separate yourself from him nor from his  Father. You need no forgiveness, for the wholly pure have never
Tx:25.21  what He has given you that you may see His Son as one and thank his  Father as He thanks you. Nor believe that all His praise is given not
Tx:25.21  His gift to you. And give the Holy Spirit what He offers unto the  Father and the Son alike. Nothing has power over you except His Will
Tx:25.53  Son because the Son is mad, and sanity must lie apart from both the  Father and the Son. This you believe. Think not that this belief
Tx:25.53  of reason believes this to be true. Sin is not real because the  Father and the Son are not insane. This world is meaningless
Tx:25.55  eternal truth of what you are. And each reflects a view of what the  Father and the Son must be to make that viewpoint meaningful and sane.
Tx:25.58  without a special function in the hope of peace than could the  Father overlook His Son and pass him by in careless thoughtlessness.
Tx:25.76  to them both, since they are equal in the Holy Spirit's sight. Their  Father gave the same inheritance to both. Who would have more or less
Tx:26.4  could be demanded than that God's Son perceive himself without his  Father? And his Father be without His Son? Yet every sacrifice
Tx:26.4  than that God's Son perceive himself without his Father? And his  Father be without His Son? Yet every sacrifice demands that they be
Tx:26.27  in its place. Who could behold the face of Christ and not recall His  Father as He really is? Who could fear love and stand upon the ground
Tx:26.38  can only be unreal. Such is the justice your ever-loving  Father has ensured must come to you. And from your own unfairness to
Tx:26.61  will he know himself nor recognize his will.] He has forsworn his  Father and himself and made them both his enemies in hate.
Tx:26.63  again. In every wish to hurt, he chooses death instead of what his  Father wills for him. Yet every instant offers life to him because

Tx:26.91 By this do I deny the Presence of the  Father and the Son. And I would rather know of Them than see

Tx:28.16  there is no cause. The cause a cause is made by its effects; the  Father is a father by His Son. Effects do not create their cause, but
Tx:28.23 The separation started with the dream the  Father was deprived of His effects and powerless to keep them since
Tx:28.35  was. And in your storehouse it will make a place of welcome for your  Father and your Self. The door is open that all those may come who
Tx:28.36  Them. And no one is deprived or can deprive. Here is a feast the  Father lays before His Son and shares it equally with him. And in
Tx:28.43  not his dream, has left the space between them vacant. And the  Father comes to join His Son the Holy Spirit joined.
Tx:28.44  left clean of all the seeds of sickness and of sin. And here the  Father will receive His Son, because His Son was gracious to himself.
Tx:28.45 I thank you,  Father, knowing you will come to close each little gap that lies

Tx:31.67  does not matter if you think you are in earth or Heaven. What your  Father wills for you can never change. The truth in you remains as

W1:45.11  it as you would an altar dedicated in Heaven itself to God the  Father and God the Son. For such is the place you are trying to
W1:50.4  Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. Such is the resting place where your  Father has placed you forever.
W1:56.5  Beyond all my insane wishes is my will united with the Will of my  Father. God is still everywhere and in everything forever. And we who
W1:58.6  suffer any loss or deprivation or pain because of who I am. My  Father supports me, protects me, and directs me in all things. His
W1:67.8  that tells you this. This is the Voice for God reminding you of your  Father and of your Self. This is the Voice of truth replacing
W1:69.8 Have confidence in your  Father today. And be certain that He has heard you and has answered
W1:72.12 What is salvation,  Father? I do not know. Tell me, that I may understand.
W1:72.14  our ears. Now we would see and hear and learn. “What is salvation,  Father?” Ask and you will be answered. Seek and you will find.
W1:72.16 What is salvation,  Father? I do not know. Tell me, that I may understand.
W1:72.19  plan for salvation. Let me accept it instead. What is salvation,  Father?
W1:73.3  a world have been created by the will the Son of God shares with his  Father? Did God create disaster for His Son? Creation is the will of
W1:73.10  you unwillingly. It is the one purpose here on which you and your  Father are in perfect accord.
W1:76.11  saw. Then listen further. He will tell you more. About the love your  Father has for you. About the endless joy He offers you. About His
W1:76.14  all danger and all tyranny. It is our acknowledgment that God is our  Father and that His Son is saved.
W1:77.2  in the truth of what you are. It is implicit in what God your  Father is. It was ensured in your creation and guaranteed by the laws
W1:95.17  Son of God, united with your brothers in this Self, united with your  Father in His Will.
W1:95.20  of peace. Your own acknowledgment you are One Self, united with your  Father, is a call to all the world to be at one with you. To everyone
W1:99.9  what you say, for these are words in which your freedom lies. Your  Father loves you. All the world of pain is not His Will. Forgive
W1:99.15  your completeness, unity, and peace. You cannot lose the gifts your  Father gave. You do not want to be another self. You have no function
W1:100.1 Just as God's Son completes his  Father, so your part in it completes your Father's plan. Salvation
W1:106.2 Listen and hear your  Father speak to you through His appointed Voice, Which silences the
W1:106.5  voice to speak to them, for who could reach God's Son except his  Father calling through your Self?
W1:107.8  will give you yours. You were not meant to suffer and to die. Your  Father wills these dreams be gone. Let truth correct them all. We do
W1:107.10  of life to Him as well. He is your brother and so like to you your  Father knows that you are both the same. It is your Self you ask to
W1:117.3  truth. Love is my heritage and with it joy. These are the gifts my  Father gave to me. I would accept all that is mine in truth.
W1:120.3  God's Son. Today I lay aside all sick illusions of myself and let my  Father tell me Who I really am.
W1:122.3  clears your memory of all dead thoughts so that remembrance of your  Father can arise across the threshold of your mind.
W1:123.2  gifts you have received. Be glad today in loving thankfulness your  Father has not left you to yourself, nor let you wander in the dark
W1:123.8  He gave His Son that he might rise above the world remembering his  Father and his Self.
W1:124.7  have accepted and we now would give, for we would keep the gifts our  Father gave. Today we would experience ourselves at one with Him, so
W1:124.7  experience the world is freed; as we deny our separation from our  Father, it is healed along with us.
W1:125.1 Let this day be a day of stillness and of quiet listening. Your  Father wills you hear His Word today. He calls to you from deep
W1:125.4 Hear, holy Son of God, your  Father speak. His Voice would give to you His holy Word to spread
W1:125.8  and purpose, with no separation nor division in the single Mind of  Father and of Son. In quiet listen to your Self today, and let Him
W1:127.3  is the power holding everything as one, the link between the  Father and the Son which holds them both forever as the same.
W1:127.8 Call to your  Father, certain that His Voice will answer. He Himself has promised
W1:132.13  Himself. What He creates is not apart from Him, and nowhere does the  Father end, the Son begin as something separate from Him.
W1:132.14  because it is a thought apart from God and made to separate the  Father and the Son and break away a part of God Himself and thus
W1:132.15  They cannot be there—no more than we. For we are in the home our  Father set for us along with them. And we who are as He created us
W1:136.10  opposed by a decision stronger than His Will. His Son is dust, the  Father incomplete, and chaos sits in triumph on His throne.
W1:140.8  to find the source of healing, which is in our minds because our  Father placed it there for us. It is not further from us than
W1:140.11  to make them different and thus delay the time when we can hear our  Father speak to us. We hear Him now. We come to Him today.
W1:140.13 Only salvation can be said to cure. Speak to us,  Father, that we may be healed.
W1:R4.4 This is a fact and represents the truth of what you are and what your  Father is. It is this thought by which the Father gave creation to
W1:R4.4  you are and what your Father is. It is this thought by which the  Father gave creation to the Son, establishing the Son as co-creator
W1:R4.4  to the Son. For in his mind no thoughts can dwell but those his  Father shares. Lack of forgiveness blocks this thought from his
W1:R4.11  happiness and rest and endless quiet, perfect certainty, and all our  Father wills that we receive as the inheritance we have of Him.
W1:142.1 [123] I thank my  Father for His gifts to me.
W1:151.9  reality. What can the body mean to Him Who knows the glory of the  Father and the Son? What whispers of the ego can He hear? What could
W1:152.8  take the place of self-deceptions made but to usurp the altar to the  Father and the Son.
W1:152.15  Self. God's Voice will answer, for He speaks for you and for your  Father. He will substitute the peace of God for all your frantic
W1:153.13 You who have played that you are lost to hope, abandoned by your  Father, left alone in terror in a fearful world made mad by sin and
W1:154.4 It is this joining through the Voice of God of  Father and of Son that sets apart salvation from the world. It is
W1:158.2  shared directly in the way that vision can. The revelation that the  Father and the Son are one will come in time to every mind. Yet is
W1:159.4  in His sight the sinless are as one. Their holiness was given by His  Father and Himself.
W1:160.8  assure you, quietly and sure, that you are not a stranger to your  Father, nor is your Creator stranger made to you. Whom God has joined
W1:163.4  love and Heaven's perfect, changeless constancy. Here is the Will of  Father and of Son defeated finally and laid to rest beneath the
W1:163.7  over His, and so eternal life gave way to death. And with the  Father died the Son as well.
W1:163.9 Our  Father, bless our eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we would
W1:165.1  and death obscure the perfect happiness and the Eternal Life your  Father wills for you? And what could hide what cannot be concealed
W1:167.1  an opposite to God does not exist. There is no death because the  Father and the Son are one.
W1:168.7 Your grace is given me. I claim it now.  Father, I come to You. And You will come to me who asks. I am the Son
W1:169.4  appeared to contradict our statement that the revelation of the  Father and the Son as one has been already set. But we have also said
W1:169.6  holy face of Christ. The Son of God has merely disappeared into His  Father, as his Father has in him. The world has never been at all.
W1:169.6  The Son of God has merely disappeared into His Father, as his  Father has in him. The world has never been at all. Eternity remains
W1:R5.2 Steady our feet, our  Father; let our doubts be quiet and our holy minds be still, and
W1:R5.6  love, and never changes from Its constant state of union with Its  Father and Itself.
W1:R5.11  not a way we walk alone. In him I walk with you and you with me. Our  Father wills His Son be one with Him. What lives but must not then be
W1:182.5 It is this Child in you your  Father knows as His own Son. It is this Child Who knows His Father.
W1:182.5  you your Father knows as His own Son. It is this Child Who knows His  Father. He desires to go home so deeply, so unceasingly, His voice
W1:183.11  His Father's Thoughts become his own. He makes his claim to all his  Father gave, is giving still, and will forever give. He calls on Him
W1:183.12  universe consists of nothing but the Son of God who calls upon his  Father. And his Father's Voice gives answer in his Father's holy
W1:186.3  quite sobering until you see its meaning. All it says is that your  Father still remembers you and offers you the perfect trust He holds
W1:187.10  for fear has gone. And here, before the altar to one God, one  Father, one Creator and one thought, we stand together as one Son of
W1:188.6  their home. And they point surely to their Source where God the  Father and the Son are one.
W1:189.8  all obstacles that you have interposed between the Son and God the  Father to be quietly removed forever. God will do His part in joyful
W1:190.3  The body is the Son of God, corruptible in death, as mortal as the  Father he has slain.
W1:193.20  hold the key that opens Heaven's gate and brings the Love of God the  Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to Heaven. God will take
W1:195.4  only be sincere if it is joined to love. We offer thanks to God our  Father that in us all things will find their freedom. It will never
W1:195.6 We thank our  Father for one thing alone—that we are separate from no living
W1:196.5  of God is real. And what is that but hell? Who could believe his  Father is his deadly enemy, separate from him and waiting to destroy
W1:196.11  can call on Him to save you from illusions in His Love, calling Him  Father and yourself His Son. Pray that the instant may be soon—
W1:197.7  come, for everyone must live and breathe in Him. His Being in His  Father is secure because Their will is one. Their gratitude to all
W1:198.3  It is a dream in which the Son of God awakens to his Self and to his  Father, knowing They are one.
W1:198.7  all are one—a place where death is offered to God's Son and to his  Father. You may think They have accepted, but if you will look again
W1:198.12  dream. This is the gift the Holy Spirit holds for you from God your  Father. Let today be celebrated both on earth and in your holy home
W1:198.14  is, that to behold the Son is to perceive no more and only know the  Father? In this vision of the Son, so brief that not an instant
W1:200.9  desert His Son in need, nor let him stray forever from his home. The  Father calls; the Son will hear. And that is all there is to what
W1:200.1  my brother. I am blessed with oneness with the universe and God, my  Father, One Creator of the whole that is my Self, forever one with
W1:219.1  upon this. And then return to earth without confusion as to what my  Father loves forever as His Son. I am not a body. I am free. For I
W2:I.2  merely a beginning. For we wait in quiet expectation for our God and  Father. He has promised He will take the final step Himself. And we
W2:I.3  have given God. We say some simple words of welcome and expect our  Father to reveal Himself as He has promised. We have called on Him,
W2:I.5  For now we cannot fail. Sit silently and wait upon your  Father. He has willed to come to you when you have recognized it is
W2:I.6 I am so close to you we cannot fail.  Father, we give these holy times to You in gratitude to Him Who
W2:I.7  which are Your will to keep. We will with You in asking this. The  Father and the Son, Whose holy will created all that is, can fail in
W2:221.1  the deep recesses of my mind, I wait and listen for Your Voice. My  Father, speak to me today. I come to hear Your Voice in silence and
W2:223.2 Our  Father, let us see the face of Christ instead of our mistakes. For we
W2:224.1  it to give it light. It lights the world as well. It is the gift my  Father gave me, the one as well I give the world. There is no gift
W2:224.2 My Name, oh  Father, still is known to You. I have forgotten it and do not know
W2:224.2  not know where I am going, who I am, or what it is I do. Remind me,  Father, now, for I am weary of the world I see. Reveal what You would
W2:227.1  be removed forever from my mind. This is my holy instant of release.  Father, I know my will is one with Yours.
W2:228.1 My  Father knows my holiness. Shall I deny His knowledge and believe in
W2:229.1  attests the truth of the Identity I sought to lose, but which my  Father has kept safe for me.
W2:230.1  remain. It is not given me to change my Self. How merciful is God my  Father, that when He created me He gave me peace forever. Now I ask
W2:WS.5  almost over, and God's Son has but an instant more to wait until his  Father is remembered, dreams are done, eternity has shined away the
W2:231.1 What can I seek for,  Father, but Your Love? Perhaps I think I seek for something else—a
W2:231.2  And you share this will with me, and with the One as well Who is our  Father. To remember Him is Heaven. This we seek. And only this is
W2:232.1 Be in my mind, my  Father, when I wake and shine on me throughout the day today. Let
W2:232.2  be. Today practice the end of fear. Have faith in Him Who is your  Father. Trust all things to Him. Let Him reveal all things to you,
W2:234.1  as one. Nothing has ever happened to disturb the peace of God the  Father and the Son. This we accept as wholly true today.
W2:234.2 We thank You,  Father, that we cannot lose the memory of You and of Your Love. We
W2:237.1  I bring the world the tidings of salvation that I hear as God my  Father speaks to me. And I behold the world that Christ would have me
W2:237.2  eyes today, and His the ears which listen to the Voice of God today.  Father, I come to You through Him Who is Your Son and my true Self as
W2:238.2 And so again today we pause to think how much our  Father loves us. And how dear His Son, created by His Love, remains
W2:239.1  by a false humility. Let us instead be thankful for the gifts our  Father gave us. Can we see in those with whom He shares His glory any
W2:239.2 We thank You,  Father, for the light that shines forever in us. And we honor it
W2:241.2  have forgiven one another now, and so we come at last to You again.  Father, Your Son, who never left, returns to Heaven and his home. How
W2:245.1 Your peace surrounds me,  Father. Where I go, Your peace goes there with me. It sheds its light
W2:245.1  or think they are bereft of hope and happiness. Send them to me, my  Father. Let me bring Your peace with me. For I would save Your Son as
W2:246.1  Let me not try to hurt God's Son and think that I can know his  Father or my Self. Let me not fail to recognize myself and still
W2:246.1  recognize myself and still believe that my awareness can contain my  Father, or my mind conceive of all the love my Father has for me and
W2:246.1  can contain my Father, or my mind conceive of all the love my  Father has for me and all the love which I return to Him.
W2:246.2 I will accept the way You choose for me to come to You, my  Father. For in that will I succeed because it is Your Will. And I
W2:248.2  love for You returns and lets me love Your Son again as well.  Father, I am as You created me. Now is Your Love remembered and my
W2:250.2 He is Your Son, my  Father. And today I would behold his gentleness instead of my
W2:WIS.4  with but a little life that ends in death. But all the while his  Father shines on him and loves him with an everlasting Love which his
W2:251.2 And for that peace, our  Father, we give thanks. What we denied ourselves You have restored,
W2:255.1  in the peace of Heaven. In his name I give today to finding what my  Father wills for me, accepting it as mine and giving it to all my
W2:255.2 And so, my  Father, would I pass this day with You. Your Son has not forgotten
W2:256.2 And so, our  Father, would we come to You in Your appointed way. We have no goal
W2:260.1  not left my Source, remaining part of What created me. Your Son, my  Father, calls on You today. Let me remember You created me. Let me
W2:261.2 Let me not seek for idols. I would come, my  Father, home to You today. I choose to be as You created me and find
W2:262.1  Name, for You created him. Let me not see him as a stranger to his  Father, nor as stranger to myself. For he is part of me and I of him,
W2:264.1  creation or without the Love Which holds all things within Itself.  Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We come to You in Your own Name
W2:267.2 Let me attend Your Answer, not my own.  Father, my heart is beating in the peace the Heart of Love created.
W2:270.1  can give. The world forgiven signifies Your Son acknowledges his  Father, lets his dreams be brought to truth, and waits expectantly
W2:WIC.2  by anything the body's eyes perceive. For though in Him His  Father placed the means for your salvation, yet does He remain the
W2:WIC.2  means for your salvation, yet does He remain the Self Who, like His  Father, knows no sin.
W2:271.1  death. For nothing that He looks on but must live, remembering the  Father and the Son; Creator and creation unified.
W2:274.2 A special blessing comes to us today from Him Who is our  Father. Give this day to Him and there will be no fear today because
W2:275.2  what words to give the world. The safety that I bring is given me.  Father, Your Voice protects all things through me.
W2:276.1  “My Son is pure and holy as Myself.” And thus did God become the  Father of the Son He loves, for thus was he created. This the Word
W2:276.1  Love, and we deny our Self, to be unsure of who we are, of who our  Father is, and for what purpose we have come. And yet we need but to
W2:277.1 Your Son is free, my  Father. Let me not imagine I have bound him with the laws I made to
W2:278.1  in which all things that seem to live appear to die, then is my  Father prisoner with me. And this do I believe when I maintain the
W2:278.1  and cannot be escaped. If I am bound in any way, I do not know my  Father or my Self. And I am lost to all reality. For truth is free,
W2:279.2 I will accept Your promises today and give my faith to them. My  Father loves the Son Whom He created as His own. Would You withhold
W2:280.1  God but is forever pure. Can I lay limits on the Son of God, whose  Father willed that he be limitless and like Himself in freedom and in
W2:280.2  let me give honor to Your Son, for thus alone I find the way to You.  Father, I lay no limits on the Son You love and You created
W2:WIHS.3 If you but knew how much your  Father yearns to have you recognize your sinlessness, you would not
W2:281.2 I will not hurt myself today. For I am far beyond all pain. My  Father placed me safe in Heaven, watching over me. And I would not
W2:282.1  decision not to be insane and to accept myself as God Himself, my  Father and my Source, created me. This the determination not to be
W2:283.1  Your creation is unchangeable. Let me not worship idols. I am He my  Father loves. His holiness remains the light of Heaven and the Love
W2:283.2 Now are we one in shared Identity, with God our  Father as our only Source and everything created part of us. And so
W2:287.2 You are my goal, my  Father. What but You could I desire to have? What way but that which
W2:290.2  today while I but seek to do Your Will. You cannot fail to hear me,  Father. What I ask have You already given me, and I am sure that I
W2:291.2  myself. I do not know the way to You. But You are wholly certain.  Father, lead Your Son along the quiet path that ends in You. Let my
W2:292.2 We thank You,  Father, for Your guarantee of only happy outcomes in the end. Help us
W2:294.2 My body,  Father, cannot be Your Son. And what is not created cannot be sinful
W2:295.2 My  Father, Christ has asked a gift of me, and one I give that it be
W2:298.2  and escape from everything that would obscure my love for God, my  Father, and His holy Son.
W2:299.1  is far beyond my own ability to understand or know. Yet God my  Father, Who created it, acknowledges my holiness as His. Our will
W2:WISC.4  which all Sons of God acknowledge that they all are one. And God the  Father smiles upon His Son, His one creation and His only joy.
W2:301.1  all the tears I shed will be forgotten, for their source is gone.  Father, I will not judge Your world today.
W2:303.2 Your Son is welcome,  Father. He has come to save me from the evil self I made. He is the
W2:304.2  and thus receive salvation for the world. It is Your gift, my  Father, given me to offer to Your holy Son that he may find again the
W2:306.2 And so, our  Father, we return to You, remembering we never went away, remembering
W2:308.2 Thanks for this instant,  Father. It is now I am redeemed. This instant is the time You have
W2:309.2 The step I take today, my  Father, is my sure release from idle dreams of sin. Your altar stands
W2:310.1 This day, my  Father, would I spend with You, as You have chosen all my days should
W2:WILJ.5  and forever pure. Therefore awaken and return to Me. I am your  Father and you are My Son.”
W2:312.2  upon a liberated world, set free from all the judgments I have made.  Father, this is Your will for me today, and therefore it must be my
W2:315.2 I thank You,  Father, for the many gifts that come to me today and every day from

C:12.24  nor the Son's, lessened Father or Son in any way. Replace the word  Father with the word Creation and see if this does not help to make

Tx:25.53 To justify one value that the world upholds is to deny your  Father's sanity and yours. For God and His beloved Son do not think
Tx:25.53  believe one thought opposed to truth, he has decided he is not his  Father's Son because the Son is mad, and sanity must lie apart from

Tx:4.17  without the investment in fear. Your investment is great now because  fear is a witness to the separation, and your ego rejoices when you
Tx:4.47  call of the body. That is why the basic conflict between love and  fear is unconscious; the ego cannot tolerate either and represses
Tx:4.70  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 does
Tx:4.70  of God is at least logical, since this idea does dispel the ego.  Fear of dissolution from the Higher Source, then, makes some sense

Tx:5.46  which I have repeatedly asked you to do, is always a way out of  fear. This does not mean that you can safely fail to acknowledge
Tx:5.60  it is whole. Guilt is always disruptive. Anything that engenders  fear is divisive because it obeys the law of division. If the ego is
Tx:5.61  you respond to your ego, you will experience guilt and you will  fear punishment. The ego is quite literally a fearful thought.

Tx:6.6  Projection means anger, anger fosters assault, and assault promotes  fear. The real meaning of the crucifixion lies in the apparent

Tx:6.65  shared. Yet this is not so real as it sounds. Those who communicate  fear are promoting attack, and attack always breaks communication,
Tx:6.70 All the separated ones have a basic  fear of retaliation and abandonment. This is because they believe

Tx:8.26  everything. It is therefore an illusion of isolation, maintained by  fear of the same loneliness which is its illusion. I have told you
Tx:8.40 Ours is simply the journey back to God, Who is our home. Whenever  fear intrudes anywhere along the road to peace, it is always
Tx:8.82  awakening. They are attempts to reinforce unconsciousness out of  fear of consciousness. This is a pathetic way of trying not to
Tx:8.84 Healing is release from the  fear of waking and the substitution of the will to wake. The will
Tx:8.84  to wake is the will to love, since all healing involves replacing  fear with love. The Holy Spirit cannot distinguish among degrees of
Tx:8.86  followers and also its translators to be entirely literal about  fear and its effects but not about love and its results. Thus,
Tx:8.90  Fear of the Will of God is one of the strangest beliefs that the

Tx:8.92 The association of truth and  fear, which would be highly artificial at most, is particularly

Tx:8.101 The energy which you withdraw from creation you expend on  fear. This is not because your energy is limited but because you
Tx:8.104  make the unreal, because the absence of reality is fearful, and  fear cannot be created. As long as you believe that fear is

Tx:8.109  given by the Holy Spirit will ever be one which would increase  fear. It is possible that His answer will not be heard at all. It is
Tx:9.13  which are eternal. Forgiveness that is learned of me does not use  fear to undo fear. Nor does it make real the unreal and then
Tx:9.13  Forgiveness that is learned of me does not use fear to undo  fear. Nor does it make real the unreal and then destroy it.
Tx:9.17  literally lives on borrowed time, and its days are numbered. Do not  fear the Last Judgment, but welcome it and do not wait, for the ego's
Tx:9.22  condemnation onto God, they make Him appear retaliative and  fear His retribution. What they have done is merely to identify
Tx:9.24  usually does note, even in its confusion. If the way to counteract  fear is to reduce the importance of the fearer, how can this build
Tx:9.69  up the dissociation of reality brings more than merely lack of  fear. In this decision lie joy and peace and the glory of creation.
Tx:9.83  is not due to illusions, for to honor them is to honor nothing. Yet  fear is not due them either, for nothing cannot be fearful. You have
Tx:9.83  due them either, for nothing cannot be fearful. You have chosen to  fear love because of its perfect harmlessness, and because of this
Tx:9.83  fear love because of its perfect harmlessness, and because of this  fear, you have been willing to give up your own perfect helpfulness
Tx:10.14  it is not yours. This belief is your whole sickness and your whole  fear. Every symptom of sickness and fear arises here because this is
Tx:10.14  whole sickness and your whole fear. Every symptom of sickness and  fear arises here because this is the belief that makes you want not
Tx:10.26  which God knows nothing. That way is hard indeed and very lonely.  Fear and grief are your guests, and they go with you and abide with
Tx:10.40  therefore, for what you will be looking at is the source of  fear, but you have surely learned by now that fear is not real. We
Tx:10.41 Do not be afraid, then, to look upon  fear, for it cannot be seen. Clarity undoes confusion by
Tx:10.43  but delusions. We can surely regard a delusional system without  fear, for it cannot have any effects if its source is not true. Fear
Tx:10.43  fear, for it cannot have any effects if its source is not true.  Fear becomes more obviously inappropriate if one recognizes the ego's
Tx:10.47  realize is that you are afraid of it. For if the ego gives rise to  fear, it is diminishing your independence and weakening your
Tx:10.48  uninvolved, and even desperate, but not really afraid. Minimizing  fear but not its undoing is the ego's constant effort and is indeed
Tx:10.48  How can it preach separation without upholding it through  fear, and would you listen to it if you recognized this is what it
Tx:10.49  recognition that whatever seems to separate you from God is only  fear, regardless of the form it takes and quite apart from how the
Tx:10.49  a false idea of independence, you will not accept the cost of  fear if you recognize it. Yet this is the cost, and the ego
Tx:10.49  if you overlook love, you are overlooking yourself, and you must  fear unreality because you have denied yourself. By believing that
Tx:10.50  could be defeated, and this is impossible. Only by learning what  fear is, can you finally learn to distinguish the possible from the
Tx:10.51  [only] brought you fear, and it becomes difficult to maintain that  fear is happiness.
Tx:10.52 Upheld by  fear, this is what the ego would have you believe. Yet God's Son is
Tx:10.52  it, and he will not accept it. For only the insane would choose  fear in place of love, and only the insane could believe that love
Tx:10.80  one is many. Realize that you are afraid of His specificity for  fear of what you think it will demand of you. Yet only by asking
Tx:10.83 Blessed are you who will ask the truth of God without  fear, for only thus can you learn that His answer is the release
Tx:10.83  for only thus can you learn that His answer is the release from  fear. Beautiful Child of God, you are asking only for what I promised
Tx:10.88  willing to let their interpretations go in favor of reality, their  fear goes with them. When a child is helped to translate his “ghost”
Tx:10.88  into a dream, he is no longer afraid and laughs happily at his own  fear. You, my children, are afraid of your brothers and of your
Tx:10.89  you too will laugh at your fears and replace them with peace. For  fear lies not in reality, but in the minds of children who do not
Tx:11.9  His criteria are equally applicable to you. For to recognize  fear is not enough to escape from it, although the recognition is
Tx:11.9  must still translate it into truth. If you were left with the  fear, having recognized it, you would have taken a step away from
Tx:11.9  it. Yet we have repeatedly emphasized the need to recognize  fear and face it without disguise as a crucial step in the undoing
Tx:11.10  to perceive attack as a call for love. We have learned surely that  fear and attack are inevitably associated. If only attack produces
Tx:11.10  fear and attack are inevitably associated. If only attack produces  fear and if you see attack as the call for help that it is, the
Tx:11.10  you see attack as the call for help that it is, the unreality of  fear must dawn upon you. For fear is a call for love in
Tx:11.10  help that it is, the unreality of fear must dawn upon you. For  fear is a call for love in unconscious recognition of what has been
Tx:11.11  Fear is a symptom of your deep sense of loss. If when you perceive it
Tx:11.11  it in others you learn to supply the loss, the basic cause of  fear is removed. Thereby you teach yourself that fear does not exist
Tx:11.11  basic cause of fear is removed. Thereby you teach yourself that  fear does not exist in you, for you have in yourself the means
Tx:11.11  the means for removing it and have demonstrated this by giving it.  Fear and love are the only emotions of which you are capable. One is
Tx:11.12 By interpreting  fear correctly as a positive affirmation of the underlying belief it

Tx:11.12  raise what fear conceals to clear-cut, unequivocal predominance,  fear becomes meaningless. You have denied its power to conceal love,

Tx:11.21 There is no  fear in perfect love. We will but be making perfect to you what is

Tx:11.22  Would you not exchange this awareness for the awareness of your  fear? When we have overcome fear—not by hiding it, not by
Tx:11.22  awareness for the awareness of your fear? When we have overcome  fear—not by hiding it, not by minimizing it, not by denying its

Tx:12.33 We have said that you have but two emotions, love and  fear. One is changeless but continually exchanged, being offered by
Tx:12.37  what he loves and recoils from what he fears. And you react with  fear to love and draw away from it. Yet fear attracts you, and
Tx:12.37  he fears. And you react with fear to love and draw away from it. Yet  fear attracts you, and believing it is love, you call it to

Tx:13.17  of what you would see there, but it is not there. The thing you  fear is gone. If you would look within, you would see only the
Tx:13.27  wholly unjustified, and wholly without reason, you will not  fear to look upon the Atonement and accept it wholly.
Tx:13.28  peace within you is the perfect purity in which you were created.  Fear not to look upon the lovely truth in you. Look through the

Tx:13.29  love is guiltless. You who have always loved your Father can have no  fear for any reason to look within and see your holiness. You
Tx:13.33  I give my Father. My trust in you is without limit and without the  fear that you will hear me not. I thank the Father for your
Tx:13.40  to help you realize that this is what you want, and only this.  Fear not the Holy Spirit will fail in what your Father has given Him
Tx:13.67  I will make manifest. If I am guiltless, I have nothing to  fear. I choose to testify to my acceptance of the Atonement, not
Tx:13.70  to heal is another opportunity to replace darkness with light and  fear with love. If he refuses it, he binds himself to darkness

Tx:14.10  to Heaven and to the peace of God. There is no pain, no trial, no  fear that teaching this can fail to overcome. The power of God

Tx:14.18  As guardians of darkness and of ignorance, look to them only for  fear, for what they keep obscure is fearful. But let them go, and
Tx:14.25  it becomes unreal to you because you hid it and surrounded it with  fear. Under each cornerstone of fear on which you have erected your
Tx:14.25  you hid it and surrounded it with fear. Under each cornerstone of  fear on which you have erected your insane system of belief, the
Tx:14.25  truth lies hidden. Yet you cannot know this, for by hiding truth in  fear, you see no reason to believe the more you look at fear, the
Tx:14.25  truth in fear, you see no reason to believe the more you look at  fear, the less you see it, and the clearer what it conceals
Tx:14.27  and equal in their reality. Their joining thus becomes the source of  fear, for if they meet, acceptance must be withdrawn from one of
Tx:14.28  Truth does not struggle against ignorance, and love does not attack  fear. What needs no protection does not defend itself. Defense is of
Tx:14.41  and loss with the immortal assurance of their Father's Love. There,  fear of death will be replaced with joy of living. For God is Life,

Tx:14.69  solve by offering you a miracle. Miracles are for you. And every  fear or pain or trial you have has been undone. He has brought all
Tx:15.4  it unsatisfied. No one who follows the ego's teaching is without the  fear of death. Yet if death were thought of merely as an end to pain,
Tx:15.4  but never so clearly as here. For the ego must seem to keep  fear from you to keep your allegiance. Yet it must engender fear in
Tx:15.4  keep fear from you to keep your allegiance. Yet it must engender  fear in order to maintain itself.

Tx:15.8  the ego would make the present useless. There is no escape from  fear in the ego's use of time. For time, according to its teaching,
Tx:15.9 The Holy Spirit would undo all of this now.  Fear is not of the present but only of the past and future, which
Tx:15.9  but only of the past and future, which do not exist. There is no  fear in the present when each instant stands clear and separated from
Tx:15.10  wherein holiness was born again, you will go forth in time without  fear and with no sense of change with time.
Tx:15.17 Do not be concerned with time and  fear not the instant of holiness which will remove all fear. For

Tx:15.48 Because of guilt, all special relationships have some elements of  fear in them. And this is why they shift and change so frequently.
Tx:15.48  They are not based on changeless love alone. And love where  fear has entered cannot be depended on because it is not perfect. In
Tx:15.49  them may be, He can translate them into holiness by removing as much  fear as you will let Him. You can place any relationship under His

Tx:15.95  is always fear and nothing else. It is not necessary to follow  fear through all the circuitous routes by which it burrows
Tx:15.96  is attack, not love. If you would accept but this one idea, your  fear of love would vanish. Guilt cannot last when the idea of
Tx:15.98  love demands sacrifice and is therefore inseparable from attack and  fear. And that guilt is the price of love, which must be paid by
Tx:15.98  fear. And that guilt is the price of love, which must be paid by  fear. How fearful, then, has God become to you, and how great a
Tx:15.101  Fear not to recognize the whole idea of sacrifice as solely of your
Tx:15.102  Presence of Holiness creates the holiness which surrounds it. No  fear can touch the host who cradles God in the time of Christ, for

Tx:16.16  who bring you the glad tidings He has come. It is true, just as you  fear, that to acknowledge Him is to deny all that you think you
Tx:16.29  than you think, and your foot is planted firmly on it. Have no  fear that the attraction of those who stand on the other side and

Tx:16.40 Would you not go through  fear to love? For such the journey seems to be. Love calls, but hate
Tx:16.40  For love is wholly without illusion and therefore wholly without  fear. Whom God remembers must be whole. And God has never forgotten
Tx:16.50  offered him to interfere with Heaven. Yet if all illusions are of  fear, and they can be of nothing else, the illusion of Heaven is
Tx:16.50  the illusion of Heaven is nothing more than an “attractive” form of  fear in which the guilt is buried deep and rises in the form of
Tx:16.64  in which a sense of actual disorientation seems to occur. But  fear it not, for it means nothing more than that you have been

Tx:18.17  seems to be. And yet the dream cannot escape its origin. Anger and  fear pervade it, and in an instant, the illusion of satisfaction is
Tx:18.20  the first change, before dreams disappear, is that your dreams of  fear are changed to happy dreams. That is what the Holy Spirit does

Tx:18.25  But you will advance because your goal is the advance from  fear to truth. You know this. The goal which you accepted is the
Tx:18.25  the goal of knowledge, for which you signified your willingness.  Fear seems to live in darkness, and when you are afraid, you have
Tx:18.26 If you knew Who walks beside you on this way which you have chosen,  fear would be impossible. You do not know because the journey into
Tx:18.26  which you have surrounded it. When you retreat to the illusion, your  fear increases, for there is little doubt that what you think it

Tx:19.11 Faith is the opposite of fear, as much a part of love as  fear is of attack. Faith is the acknowledgment of union. It is the
Tx:19.25  sin, not error. Sin will be repeated because of this attraction.  Fear can become so acute that the sin is denied the acting out, but
Tx:19.25  an avenger with a mind unlike your own could stamp it out through  fear.
Tx:19.26 The ego does not think it possible that love, not  fear, is really called upon by sin and always answers. For the ego

Tx:19.49 The attraction of guilt produces  fear of love, for love would never look on guilt at all. It is the

Tx:19.50  and return with messages of love and gentleness. The messengers of  fear are harshly ordered to seek out guilt and cherish every scrap of

Tx:19.52  their savage pangs of hunger. For they are frantic with the pain of  fear and would avert the punishment of him who sends them forth by

Tx:19.62  pleasure; it has no hope of pleasure. But neither can it bring you  fear of pain. Pain is the only “sacrifice” the Holy Spirit asks, and
Tx:19.63  will and its accomplishment? You want communion, not the feast of  fear. You want salvation, not the pain of guilt. And you want your

Tx:19.77  No one can die unless he chooses death. What seems to be the  fear of death is really its attraction. Guilt, too, is feared and

Tx:19.86 The  fear of death will go as its appeal is yielded to love's real

Tx:19.92  God seems quite forgotten; the cleavage of your Self from you—the  fear of God, the final step in your dissociation.

Tx:19.95  delicate appeal of guilt, the “holy” waxen image of death, and the  fear of vengeance of the ego you swore in blood not to desert, all
Tx:19.96  this. No mad desire, no trivial impulse to forget again, no stab of  fear, nor the cold sweat of seeming death can stand against your

Tx:20.2  not the crown of thorns; the gift of love and not the “gift” of  fear. You stand beside each other, thorns in one hand and lilies in
Tx:20.11  you to see no thorns, no strangers, and no obstacles to peace. The  fear of God is nothing to you now. Who is afraid to look upon
Tx:20.12  and freed from all the terror that kept it hidden. There is no  fear in love. The song of Easter is the glad refrain the Son of God
Tx:20.12  God was never crucified. Let us lift up our eyes together, not in  fear, but faith. And there will be no fear in us, for in our vision

Tx:20.13  looks upon the lilies and brings you joy. We go beyond the veil of  fear, lighting each other's way. The holiness that leads us is
Tx:20.14  untouched by guilt and perfectly protected from the cold chill of  fear and withering blight of sin alike. Your gift has saved him from
Tx:20.15  the hands that gave it to each other shall both of you be led past  fear to love.
Tx:20.26  is Heaven but union, direct and perfect, and without the veil of  fear upon it? Here are we one, looking with perfect gentleness upon
Tx:20.27  then, this faith with me and know that it is justified. There is no  fear in perfect love because it knows no sin and it must look on
Tx:20.27  on others as on itself. Looking with charity within, what can it  fear without? The innocent see safety, and the pure in heart see
Tx:20.27  of your immortality. See him as sinless, and there can be no  fear in you.

Tx:20.39  is inestimable clearly cannot be evaluated. Do you recognize the  fear that rises from the meaningless attempt to judge what lies so
Tx:20.45  made is partial, self-centered, broken into fragments, and full of  fear. The one created by his Father is wholly self-encompassing and
Tx:20.50  here kept “safe” from Him. But what you do not realize is what you  fear within your brother and would not see in him is what makes God
Tx:20.51  and overlook the body, as it will surely do, and they retreat in  fear, feeling the seeming firm foundation of their temple begin to
Tx:20.51  to shake and loosen. Brothers, you tremble with them. Yet what you  fear is but the herald of escape. This place of darkness is not your
Tx:20.57  like unto each other. Idolatry is past and meaningless. Perhaps you  fear each other a little yet; perhaps a shadow of the fear of God
Tx:20.57  Perhaps you fear each other a little yet; perhaps a shadow of the  fear of God remains with you. Yet what is that to those who have been
Tx:20.66  as you ask, forget not that his sinlessness is your escape from  fear. Salvation is the Holy Spirit's goal. The means is vision. For
Tx:21.35  and whom you try to limit to the body you hate because you  fear. In your refusal to forgive him, you would condemn him to the
Tx:21.35  holiness would set your brother free, removing hatred by removing  fear, not as a symptom, but at its source.
Tx:21.36 Those who would free their brothers from the body can have no  fear. They have renounced the means for sin by choosing to let all
Tx:21.41  the sin you think is there. This you would not be fearful to admit.  Fear in association with sin the ego deems quite appropriate and
Tx:21.41  the ego deems quite appropriate and smiles approvingly. It has no  fear to let you feel ashamed. It doubts not your belief and faith in
Tx:21.41  that it be there to see. This merely seems to be the source of  fear.
Tx:21.42  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 claims it is—
Tx:21.42  frantic proclamation, the ego is not certain it is so. Beneath your  fear to look within because of sin is yet another fear and one which

Tx:22.5  uneasiness, your sense of being disconnected, and your haunting  fear of lack of meaning in yourself arise? It is as though you
Tx:22.8  that need be hidden as a sin. But a mistake indeed! Let not your  fear of sin protect it from correction, for the attraction of guilt
Tx:22.8  sin protect it from correction, for the attraction of guilt is only  fear. Here is the one emotion that you made, whatever it may seem to
Tx:22.14  that calls on truth, for to deny illusions is to recognize that  fear is meaningless. Into the holy home, where fear is powerless,
Tx:22.14  is to recognize that fear is meaningless. Into the holy home, where  fear is powerless, love enters thankfully, grateful that it is one
Tx:22.18  sure indeed that any seeming happiness that does not last is really  fear. Joy does not turn to sorrow, for the eternal cannot change. But
Tx:22.25  but look on it with the decision that it must be healed and not with  fear. Nothing you made has any power over you unless you still would
Tx:22.46  you from the truth? And what would you be saved from but what you  fear? Belief in sin needs great defense and at enormous cost. All
Tx:22.48 How weak is  fear—how little and how meaningless! How insignificant before the

Tx:22.64  him. What can this mean except your minds are one? Look not with  fear upon this happy fact and think not that it lays a heavy burden
Tx:22.65  And in Him is all creation joined. Would you regret you cannot  fear alone when your relationship can also teach the power of love is
Tx:22.65  can also teach the power of love is there, which makes all  fear impossible? Do not attempt to keep a little of the ego with this
Tx:23.1  is strength, and nothing else is strong. The sinless cannot  fear, for sin of any kind is weakness. The show of strength attack
Tx:23.2  think that you succeeded and attack again. It is as certain you will  fear what you attack as it is sure that you will love what you
Tx:23.2  love shows him. For love walks with him there, protecting him from  fear. And he will see only the sinless, who can not attack.
Tx:23.3 Walk you in glory with your head held high, and  fear no evil. The innocent are safe because they share their
Tx:23.3  harmful now stands shining in their innocence, released from sin and  fear, and happily returned to love. They share the strength of love
Tx:23.8  with this belief, but never will it be more than madness. And  fear will reign in madness and will seem to have replaced love there.
Tx:23.14  anything but love. Conflict is fearful, for it is the birth of  fear. Yet what is born of nothing cannot win reality through battle.
Tx:23.18  looking on itself, extends itself. War is the condition in which  fear is born and grows and seeks to dominate. Peace is the state
Tx:23.23  not to join. One becomes weak, the other strong by his defeat. And  fear of God and of each other now appears as sensible, made real by
Tx:23.25 See how the  fear of God is reinforced by this third principle. Now it becomes
Tx:23.33  perceived as real. Their goal of madness must be seen as sanity. And  fear, with ashen lips and sightless eyes, blinded and terrible to
Tx:23.33  its substitute, the savior from salvation. How lovely do the laws of  fear make death appear! Give thanks unto the hero on love's throne,

Tx:23.41  what form of murder serves to cover the massive guilt and frantic  fear of punishment the murderer must feel? He may deny he is a
Tx:23.46  in cowering hope because the guns are stilled an instant and the  fear that haunts the place of death is not apparent, that it will not

Tx:23.47 The fear of God is  fear of life and not of death. Yet He remains the only place of
Tx:23.47  the form it takes conceals the same intent. And it is this you  fear and not the form. What is not love is murder. What is not loving
Tx:24.10 The  fear of God and of each other comes from each unrecognized belief in
Tx:24.20 —too far to falter now. Just one step more and every vestige of the  fear of God will melt away in love. Your brother's specialness and
Tx:24.21  not given to His Son but kept for Him alone. And it is this you  fear, for if He is not special, then He willed His Son be like Him,
Tx:24.45  and blessing all the way. His love for God replaces all the  fear you thought you saw within yourself. His holiness shows you
Tx:24.49  in the darkness of the night. He is your savior from the dreams of  fear. He is the healing of your sense of sacrifice and fear that what

Tx:24.54  that hides the face of Christ from him, and you as well. And let the  fear of God no longer hold the vision you were meant to see from you.
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 of satisfaction there.
Tx:25.13  world you see? In no respect at any time or place has anything but  fear and guilt been your reward. How long is needed for you to
Tx:25.43  of Him to the beholder. He can see no evil, nothing in the world to  fear, and no one who is different from himself. And as he loves them,
Tx:25.68  vengeance that their own belief in justice must entail. And so they  fear the Holy Spirit and perceive the “wrath” of God in Him. [They
Tx:25.68  hell and are afraid of love. And deep suspicion and the chill of  fear comes over them when they are told that they have never sinned.
Tx:25.77  what justice must accord the Son of God. Let love decide and never  fear that you in your unfairness will deprive yourself of what God's
Tx:25.79  are willing it be given you. God's justice warrants gratitude, not  fear. Nothing you give is lost to you or anyone, but cherished and
Tx:26.27  face of Christ and not recall His Father as He really is? Who could  fear love and stand upon the ground where sin has left a place for
Tx:26.58  he has sought to find. And he could only be afraid of it. Is  fear a treasure? Can uncertainty be what you want? Or is it a
Tx:26.70  you. In this form is the error still obscured that is the source of  fear. Salvation would wipe out the space you see between you still
Tx:26.70  you still and let you instantly become as one. And it is here you  fear the loss would lie. Do not project this fear to time, for time
Tx:26.70  And it is here you fear the loss would lie. Do not project this  fear to time, for time is not the enemy that you perceive. Time is as
Tx:26.71  it be overlooked except within the present. Future loss is not your  fear. But present joining is your dread. Who can feel desolation
Tx:26.71  cause as yet has no effects. And therefore must it be that if you  fear, there is a present cause. And it is this that needs
Tx:26.72  yet no 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  had been caused and judged disastrous now? Belief in sin arouses  fear and, like its cause, is looking forward, looking back but
Tx:26.72  in present grace, within the only interval of time which sin and  fear have overlooked but which is all there is to time. The working
Tx:26.73  They can be looked at now. Why wait till they unfold in time and  fear they may not come, although already there? You have been told
Tx:27.1  unity of what can never join? Walk you the gentle way, and you will  fear no evil and no shadows in the night. But place no terror symbols
Tx:27.6  attack can ever touch him with the poisoned and relentless sting of  fear. Attest his innocence and not his guilt. Your healing is his
Tx:27.10  life, but neither is it dead. It stands apart from all experience of  fear or love. For now it witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose being
Tx:27.33  Yet in the learning interval it has a use which now you  fear, but yet will love.
Tx:27.35  Its own. There is no choice of function anywhere. The choice you  fear to lose you never had. Yet only this appears to interfere with
Tx:27.45  you. The only thing that is required for a healing is a lack of  fear. The fearful are not healed and cannot heal. This does not mean
Tx:27.47  the dying bring reproach, and suffering whispers, “What is there to  fear?” Consider well its question. It is asked of you on your behalf.
Tx:27.51  with laws which have been properly perceived but never violated.  Fear you not the way that you perceive them. You are wrong, but there
Tx:27.58  brings the miracle perceived them all as one and called by name of  fear. As fear is witness unto death, so is the miracle the witness
Tx:27.58  the miracle perceived them all as one and called by name of fear. As  fear is witness unto death, so is the miracle the witness unto life.
Tx:27.72  little gap you do not even see, the birthplace of illusions and of  fear, the time of terror and of ancient hate, the instant of
Tx:27.73  waken to reality without the sweat of terror and a scream of mortal  fear unless a gentler dream preceded his awaking and allowed his
Tx:27.73  preceded his awaking and allowed his calmer mind to welcome, not to  fear, the Voice that calls with love to waken him. [A gentler dream,
Tx:27.73  he waken gently and with joy. And gave him means to waken without  fear. Accept the dream He gave instead of yours. It is not difficult
Tx:27.74  dreams to take the place of those you dreamed in terror and in  fear of death. He brings forgiving dreams in which the choice is not
Tx:27.82  cause. And we will see the grounds for laughter, not a cause for  fear. Let us return the dream he gave away unto the dreamer who

Tx:28.13  And what is now remembered is not fear, but rather is the cause that  fear was made to render unremembered and undone. The stillness speaks

Tx:28.22  No one is afraid of them when he perceives he made them up. The  fear was held in place because he did not see that he was author of
Tx:28.22  offered him to show him that his wishes have been done. Thus does he  fear his own attack but sees it at another's hands. As victim, he
Tx:28.24  the call to wakening be heard, because it seems to be the call to  fear.
Tx:28.26 The miracle returns the cause of  fear to you who made it. But it also shows that, having no effects,
Tx:28.28  the dream. When you accept a miracle, you do not add your dream of  fear to one that is already being dreamed. Without support, the dream
Tx:28.31 The end of dreaming is the end of  fear, and love was never in the world of dreams. The gap is little.
Tx:28.37  of just one thing—that you are evil, for you share in dreams of  fear.
Tx:28.38  you would unite, but never with the dream. It is the dream you  fear and not the mind. You see them as the same because you think
Tx:28.40  him, merely by your claim on brotherhood and not on dreams of  fear. Let him acknowledge who he is by not supporting his illusions
Tx:28.40  released, and you are kept in bondage to his dream. And dreams of  fear will haunt the little gap, inhabited but by illusions which you
Tx:28.47  from good and keeping evil in. God is the alternate to dreams of  fear. Who shares in them can never share in Him. But who withdraws
Tx:28.48  makes them real. Unshared, they are perceived as meaningless. The  fear is gone from them because you did not give them your support.
Tx:28.48  is gone from them because you did not give them your support. Where  fear has gone, there love must come because there are but these
Tx:28.53  of sin that you will see within yourself when you have lost the  fear of recognizing love.
Tx:28.56 The thing you hate and  fear and loathe and want, the body does not know. You send it forth
Tx:28.65  sense in seeking to be safe in what was made for danger and for  fear? Why burden it with further locks and chains and heavy anchors
Tx:29.2 Here is the  fear of God most plainly seen. For love is treacherous to those who

Tx:29.2  plainly seen. For love is treacherous to those who fear, since  fear and hate can never be apart. No one who hates but is afraid of
Tx:29.3 The  fear of God! The greatest obstacle that peace must flow across has
Tx:29.6  take command of when to “love” and when to shrink more safely into  fear. It will be sick because you do not know what loving means. And

Tx:29.7  But fear demands the sacrifice of love, for in love's presence  fear cannot abide. For hate to be maintained love must be feared
Tx:29.8  variable goals you hold and force the body to maintain. You do not  fear its weakness, but its lack of strength or weakness. Would you
Tx:29.8  that the body is not real. And there are overtones of seeming  fear around the happy message, “God is love.”
Tx:29.9  peace eternal. Nothing more than that, and nothing less. Without the  fear of God, what could induce you to abandon Him? What toys or
Tx:29.12  sin and pain. For pain and sin are one illusion, as are hate and  fear, attack and guilt but one. Where they are causeless, their
Tx:29.26  you think you like would hold you back as much as those in which the  fear is seen. For every dream is but a dream of fear, no matter
Tx:29.26  those in which the fear is seen. For every dream is but a dream of  fear, no matter what the form it seems to take. The fear is seen

Tx:29.26  in pleasant form. But never is it absent from the dream, for  fear is the material of dreams from which they all are made. Their
Tx:29.26  allowed you still to be afraid because you did not recognize the  fear. You would not then be willing to awake, for which the miracle
Tx:29.27  or assault must be the theme of every dream, for they are made of  fear. The thin disguise of pleasure and of joy in which they may be
Tx:29.27  in which they may be wrapped but slightly veils the heavy lump of  fear which is their core. And it is this the miracle perceives, and
Tx:29.29  of this. The core of dreams the Holy Spirit gives is never one of  fear. The coverings may not appear to change, but what they mean
Tx:29.37 Such is the core of  fear in every dream that has been kept apart from use by Him Who sees
Tx:29.42  the world whose purpose is forgiveness of God's Son! How free from  fear, how filled with blessing and with happiness! And what a joyous
Tx:29.46  outside yourself. The search implies you are not whole within and  fear to look upon your devastation and prefer to seek outside
Tx:29.50  minds are altars unto God, and where He is, no idols can abide. The  fear of God is but the fear of loss of idols. It is not the fear of
Tx:29.50  God, and where He is, no idols can abide. The fear of God is but the  fear of loss of idols. It is not the fear of loss of your reality.

Tx:30.5  then another answer cannot but produce confusion and uncertainty and  fear.
Tx:30.6  may not resolve the problem as you saw it first. This leads to  fear because it contradicts what you perceive, and so you feel
Tx:30.9  practiced well, will serve to let you be directed without  fear, for opposition will not first arise and then become a problem
Tx:30.14  your opposition. For you have already gotten angry, and your  fear of being answered in a different way from what your version of
Tx:30.28  practice in the rules which will protect you from the ravages of  fear. When this has been achieved, the sorry dream of judgment has
Tx:30.35  love. For thus was hatred born into the world, and thus the rule of  fear established there. Now hear God speak to you through Him Who is
Tx:30.35  reminding you that it is not your will to hate and be a prisoner to  fear, a slave to death, a little creature with a little life. Your
Tx:30.47  of birth and death that here are dreamed, the myriad of forms that  fear can take; quite undisturbed, the Thought God holds of you
Tx:30.53  not on them in any form. They but obscure reality, and they bring  fear because they hide the truth. Do not attack what you have made
Tx:30.56  And even in illusions it but asks forgiveness be the substitute for  fear. Such is the only rule for happy dreams. The gap is emptied of
Tx:30.56  is the only rule for happy dreams. The gap is emptied of the toys of  fear, and then its unreality is plain. Dreams are for nothing. And

Tx:30.60  real world has a purpose still beneath creation and eternity. But  fear is gone because its purpose is forgiveness, not idolatry. And so
Tx:30.63 When brothers join in purpose in the world of  fear, they stand already at the edge of the real world. Perhaps they

Tx:30.64  is everything you need to walk with perfect confidence away from  fear forever and to go straight on and quickly reach the gate of
Tx:30.65  hate is passing from the world. And with it goes all hatred and all  fear. Look back no longer, for what lies ahead is all you ever wanted
Tx:30.68  confidence with happy hearts that beat in hope and do not pound in  fear.
Tx:30.70  justified. Attack has no foundation. It is here escape from  fear begins and will be made complete. Here is the real world given
Tx:30.72  that lets the real world rise to take the place of dreams of terror.  Fear cannot arise unless attack is justified, and if it had a real
Tx:30.73  is just, it seems impossible His pardon could be real. Thus is the  fear of God the sure result of seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who
Tx:30.73  pardon as unmerited. No one who sees himself as guilty can avoid the  fear of God. But he is saved from this dilemma if he can forgive. The
Tx:30.84  constant flux and make allowance for stability of meaning anywhere.  Fear is a judgment never justified. Its presence has no meaning but
Tx:30.84  script and are afraid accordingly. But not because the thing you  fear has fearful meaning in itself.
Tx:30.88  with what you really are. This is a state so seemingly unsafe that  fear must rise. Do not continue thus, my brothers. We have one
Tx:30.93  that change and offer them to you to see in happy form, devoid of  fear. It will be given you to look upon your brother thus. But not
Tx:30.94  is not free if you would have him be but what he is. Why should you  fear to see the Christ in him? You but behold your Self in what you
Tx:31.8  lesson that God's Son is guiltless is a world in which there is no  fear and everything is lit with hope and sparkles with a gentle
Tx:31.9  love. But only if His Son is innocent can He be Love. For God were  fear indeed if he whom He created innocent could be a slave to guilt.
Tx:31.10 The  fear of God results as surely from the lesson that His Son is guilty
Tx:31.10  be remembered when he learns his innocence. For hate must father  fear and look upon its father as itself. How wrong are you who fail
Tx:31.30 —a place where nothing can find mercy or survive the ravages of  fear except in murder and in death. For here are you made sin, and
Tx:31.47  was made to teach. It is a lesson in a terrible displacement and a  fear so devastating that the face which smiles above it must forever
Tx:31.49  from feverish imaginations, hot with hatred and distortions born of  fear. What is a concept but a thought to which its maker gives a
Tx:31.58  in many forms. And each will seem to be accusing you. Yet have no  fear it will not be undone.
Tx:31.74  imaginings that come from guilty thoughts and concepts born of  fear. And what you see is hell, for fear is hell. All that is given
Tx:31.74  thoughts and concepts born of fear. And what you see is hell, for  fear is hell. All that is given you is for release—the sight, the
Tx:31.76 The veil across the face of Christ, the  fear of God and of salvation, and the love of guilt and death, they
Tx:31.81  dreams and no remaining hope except to die and end the dream of  fear. This is temptation, nothing more than this. Can this be
Tx:31.91  God and that can never fail. And thus are miracles as natural as  fear and agony appeared to be before the choice for holiness was
Tx:31.93  everyone who wanders in the world uncertain, lonely, and in constant  fear. For it is given you to join with him, and through the Christ in
W1:5.1  in whatever term seems accurate to you. The upset may seem to be  fear, worry, depression, anxiety, anger, hatred, jealousy, or any
W1:6.1  ones. Again, it is necessary to name both the form of upset (anger,  fear, worry, depression, and so on) and the perceived source very

W1:23.1 The idea for today contains the only way out of  fear that will ever succeed. Nothing else will work; everything else

C:2.4 Love is the name you give to much you  fear. You think that it is possible to choose it as a means to buy
C:2.4  safety and security. You thus have defined love as a reaction to  fear. This is why you can understand love as fear's opposite. This is

C:9.14  It is your language that gives emotion its place, one step behind  fear, in your battle to control or protect what you have made.
C:9.15  Fear always lies one step beneath the surface of a situation because

C:9.19  a child truthfully there is no cause for fear. Age has not taken  fear from any of you nor made your dream of life any less of a
C:9.19  a child's nightmare, you see no way to dispel your own. You hide  fear beneath the surface, and behind each alternative label you would
C:9.19  you would give it, in a desperate attempt to see it not. To live in  fear is, indeed, a curse, and one that you would try to tell yourself
C:9.19  torn by war or neighborhoods steeped in violence. There is cause for  fear, you say. But not here.

C:9.38  out of different aspects of yourself protects your assets. You  fear “putting all your eggs in one basket.” You seek to balance the

C:9.49  not created for separation but for union? To begin to let go of your  fear of joining, and as you do let go of use as well?
C:10.14 A similar  fear strikes your heart when you consider giving up your belief in
C:10.22 The separated self is so ensconced in  fear that the known fears of its existence seem preferable to the
C:10.22  of existence. That an option could be chosen that leaves no room for  fear at all does not occur to it, for the absence of fear is
C:10.22  no room for fear at all does not occur to it, for the absence of  fear is something it has never known.
C:10.23 If the body is the surface aspect of your existence and  fear lies beneath the surface, see the advantage of this exercise:
C:10.31  begin to feel the effects of the experiment you will also encounter  fear, especially if you take the game too seriously. There will be
C:11.4  exercises to a simple few that will stay with you when all hurrying,  fear of failing, and earnest attempts at trying hard have long been

C:11.18  over unity, you but chose fear over love. When you let go of  fear and invite unity to return, you but send out an invitation to

C:14.15  makes perfect sense to you because the foundation of your world is  fear. Were the foundation of your world love, everything that you
C:14.15  desire to keep things for yourself stems from something other than  fear. You might call this desire pride or security, or even accept

T1:3.9  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 came to be, you would

T1:3.12  urgency for the return to unity, the urgency of the need to leave  fear behind. Can you not, from this one example of your fear of
T1:3.12  to leave fear behind. Can you not, from this one example of your  fear of miracles, see the glaring reality of all you still would fear?
T1:3.12  fear of miracles, see the glaring reality of all you still would  fear?

T1:3.13  How can you leave behind all you fear without seeing all you  fear for what it is and choosing to lay it aside?
T1:3.14 This does not have to be done right now if your  fear is mightier than your willingness. But hold this thought within
T1:3.14  you will be asked to make this final choice, this choice to leave  fear behind for good and to become who you are.
T1:3.22 You  fear as well that you do not know what miracles are and thus cannot
T1:3.23  more fears might prevail upon you, we will consider only one further  fear, the fear of making the wrong choice in your choice of miracles.
T1:3.23  might prevail upon you, we will consider only one further fear, the  fear of making the wrong choice in your choice of miracles. This is

T1:4.2 Thus we must dispel, along with the illusion of  fear, the illusion of specificity. You have not been asked to request
T1:4.26 As was said within A Course of Love, all  fear is doubt about your self. Now we must expand upon this thought,
T1:4.26  Source of Love, you have, in your doubt, made of God the source of  fear. Pause a moment here and let the enormity of this confusion sink
T1:4.26  rest. Because of this confusion you have responded to Creation with  fear. Is it no wonder a new response is asked of you?
T1:4.27  the word or idea of awe has been confused with the word or idea of  fear. A Course in Miracles told you that awe is the providence of God
T1:4.27  become an aspect of yourself as human being. From time immemorial,  fear has been associated with God. This was the thinking I came to
T1:4.27  here. This is what we will now seek to do by putting an end to  fear and ushering in, with this ending, the beginning of a time of
T1:5.1  in so many forms since then that they remain forever countless, has  fear of God remained? The only answer possible is because fear of the
T1:5.1  has fear of God remained? The only answer possible is because  fear of the Self has remained.
T1:5.2 This is a two-fold  fear that must be looked at carefully now and with all the power of
T1:5.2  now and with all the power of the art of thought. One aspect of this  fear has to do with the human experience, the other aspect with the
T1:5.3  while creation is perfect, something has gone wrong within it, this  fear in relation to the human experience is of what it was I spoke.
T1:5.3  While I can tell you suffering is illusion, you cannot still your  fear of it nor tear your eyes away from it or remove from it the

T1:5.4  of the divine. A part of this fear of the divine is related to the  fear of the human condition. How can you not be fearful of creation
T1:5.4  occurs within it? But there is another aspect that relates to the  fear of union we spent much time discussing within A Course of Love.
T1:5.4  union we spent much time discussing within A Course of Love. It is a  fear of the human mind that cannot comprehend the all or the
T1:5.4  has been described often as insanity, this is the insanity you would  fear that may actually grow stronger as you get closer to the truth.
T1:5.5 This  fear of all and nothingness is fear of God, fear of Life, fear of
T1:5.5 This fear of all and nothingness is  fear of God, fear of Life, fear of Creation, fear of Self. For there

T1:5.12  remain forever theoretical. You must let go of the foundation of  fear on which the old thought system was built in order to experience
T1:6.5  of the wholehearted. Prayers such as these emanate from the state of  fear that is the reality of the separated self.
T1:6.6 To pray out of  fear is not to pray at all, because such prayer chooses not the union
T1:6.6  chooses not the union that is the prerequisite. To pray out of  fear is to ask from an unreal state of lack for what is seen as
T1:7.2  in relation to good, peace in relation to chaos, love in relation to  fear. This belief exists in the in-between, where on the one hand
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 treasures that

T2:1.6  ceased and peace has triumphed over chaos, love has triumphed over  fear.
T2:4.5  as forgetting where you are, or as complex as a sudden panic or  fear brought on by any number of factors. Either way, the result
T2:7.2  is not returned, the withholding of things you deem important. This  fear that you feel in relation to others is as true of those you hold
T2:7.5  relationship, where is the negativity? Where is the cause for  fear? What is the hidden source of your feelings of lack or
T2:9.10  prone to make in special relationships are but the symptoms of your  fear.
T2:9.15  cease to be fed by these concerns. What is food for the ego-mind is  fear and the removal of these final fears will quite literally starve
T2:9.17  comfortably hold your breath. Release your breath and release this  fear and move from special to holy relationship.
T2:13.6  in love, to share love. This is not such a frightening task. Let  fear go and walk with me now. Our journey together is just beginning
T3:1.5  the untrue has been repeatedly discussed as the ability to separate  fear from love, further guidelines are needed.

T3:10.4  had feared. But just as you have, from recognizing what it is you  fear, been able to bring those concerns to love, you can now do so
T3:10.11  gentle or full of love. Its voice will hold the unmistakable edge of  fear.

T3:12.7  of love will be retained. All that will be lost is what has come of  fear.
T3:12.8  experiences ensued. Some of these experiences were the result of  fear, some the result of love. The choice to express who you are in
T3:12.8  to express who you are in physical terms was not a choice made of  fear but made of love. A physical self is not inconsistent with the
T3:12.9  in relationship and believed itself to be separate and alone. In its  fear, it made an ego-self which, because it sprang from fear, was not
T3:12.9  In its fear, it made an ego-self which, because it sprang from  fear, was not consistent with the laws of Love or of creation.

T3:13.2  begin to fear that pleasure will end or that pain will not end. Once  fear has entered, doubt and guilt are never far behind.
T3:13.4  system is simple to learn. What is of love is truth. What is of  fear is illusion. The temptation is to see love where it is not and
T3:13.4  The temptation is to see love where it is not and to not see  fear where it is. But your ability to distinguish between love and
T3:13.4  fear where it is. But your ability to distinguish between love and  fear as cause is all that is important now as you will create the new
T3:13.10  have accepted this new idea. Choose an act that will cause you no  fear to begin with. For instance, you might tell yourself something
T3:13.12  ideas have suggested. You must birth the idea of having no reason to  fear these consequences, no matter what they may be. You must, in
T3:14.1  system of the truth. The thought system of the ego was based on  fear. In this time of translation from one thought system to the
T3:14.1  and yet significant change is the change from the foundation of  fear, the basis of the ego thought system, to a foundation of love,
T3:14.1  the basis of the thought system of truth. While the foundation of  fear, like the ego, will have left you now, a pattern of behaving
T3:14.1  a deterrent to new ideas and to action. As long as these patterns of  fear remain as deterrents to action, you will not experience the
T3:14.5  behind patterns of behavior based on the old thought system of  fear. Despite the foundation of fear upon which your old thought
T3:14.5  based on the old thought system of fear. Despite the foundation of  fear upon which your old thought system was based, you still would
T3:14.5  the life you lead that you would change than you would imagine. You  fear where all your new ideas might take you, and for some great
T3:14.8 It is only your old uncertainty that will make you  fear the matters of choice that lie before you. But this choice is
T3:14.8  but let go the old, and with it the patterns of behavior caused by  fear, the new will reveal to you all that you would keep and all that
T3:14.9  see all of the choices that throughout your life were caused by  fear and how little consequence they had in truth. These fearful
T3:16.4  that you are more content and happy, more peaceful and free of  fear than you have ever been. While your life may not have changed in
T3:16.12  but only gain within the laws of love, you are being told to have no  fear. Fear of loss is a great temptation of the human experience. If
T3:16.12  gain within the laws of love, you are being told to have no fear.  Fear of loss is a great temptation of the human experience. If it
T3:16.12  a great temptation of the human experience. If it were not for this  fear of loss, you would not find it difficult to live by the thought
T3:16.12  find it difficult to live by the thought system of the truth. This  fear relates very strongly to your ideas of change and as such is the
T3:16.12  to your new beginning. These temptations relate to everything you  fear to do because of the consequences your actions might bring.
T3:16.16  that was used to hold together the house of illusion was only your  fear.
T3:19.1 You must not  fear the changes that will occur within your physical form as it
T3:19.1  of the truth rather than the thought system of illusion. You will  fear these changes less if you realize that all that has come of love
T3:19.1  all that has come of love will be kept and that all that has come of  fear will fall away. You have no need to fear that the end of the
T3:19.1  that all that has come of fear will fall away. You have no need to  fear that the end of the special relationship will separate you from
T3:19.1  will separate you from your loved ones. You have no need to  fear that the joys you have shared with others will be no more. You
T3:19.1  have shared with others will be no more. You have no more need to  fear the loss of physical joys than you have to fear the loss of
T3:19.1  have no more need to fear the loss of physical joys than you have to  fear the loss of mental and spiritual joys.
T3:19.4  form has been blamed for choices made from lust and greed, hate and  fear, vengeance and retribution. These things have always had as
T3:19.5  acting out cause harm to other bodies, is the cause for blame and  fear of the body. So too is it with actions linked with survival
T3:19.7  I will mention sexual union specifically here to put behind you any  fear that you may have that an end to sexual union may be called for.
T3:19.8  distinction that need be made: what comes of love and what comes of  fear. All expressions of love are of maximal benefit to everyone.
T3:19.8  not see that all that are not expressions of love are expressions of  fear, I assure you this is the case. Thus any behavior, including
T3:19.8  any behavior, including sexual behavior that is not of love, is of  fear. All that comes of fear is nothing. What this means is that
T3:19.8  sexual behavior that is not of love, is of fear. All that comes of  fear is nothing. What this means is that cause and effect are not
T3:19.8  means is that cause and effect are not influenced by what comes of  fear. You may still think that suffering and “bad” behavior have had

T4:1.8  may be a choice made regarding means or content, a choice made from  fear or made from love. But there is, in other words, no lack of
T4:1.11  are the only two choices, the choices between truth and illusion,  fear and love, unity and separation, now and later. What you must
T4:1.13  a fickle universe. What a perverse God. If an end to suffering and  fear has been possible, and is possible, why has it not come to be?
T4:1.14  a likely answer and one to assuage your guilt and uncertainty, your  fear of believing in yourself and in this time as the time to end all
T4:1.22  purpose. It is what has caused you to finally be ready to still your  fear, a fear that once prevented the direct and observable learning
T4:1.22  It is what has caused you to finally be ready to still your fear, a  fear that once prevented the direct and observable learning that now
T4:2.4  the state of the forgotten self, could not know God because of their  fear. I revealed a God of Love and the Holy Spirit provided for
T4:2.29  yourself into believing that you see love where there is cause for  fear. You must remember that you are now called to see without
T4:2.29  aware that you can only see in one of two ways—with love or  fear.
T4:3.4  intent can be simply stated as the displacement of love with  fear. It is as simple as that. Yet the way in which each of you have
T4:3.5 You may not feel that you have ever intended to live in  fear. But the displacement of the original intent was so complete
T4:3.5  of the original intent was so complete that each life has begun with  fear and proceeded from this beginning continually reacting to fear.
T4:3.5  with fear and proceeded from this beginning continually reacting to  fear. While the original intent remained within you and caused you to
T4:3.5  you and caused you to attempt to express a Self of love despite your  fear, fear has thwarted your every effort and caused the very effort
T4:3.5  caused you to attempt to express a Self of love despite your fear,  fear has thwarted your every effort and caused the very effort that
T4:3.5  effort and caused the very effort that has continued the cycle of  fear. To have to try to be who you are and to express who you are is
T4:3.5  result of the displacement of the nature of love with the nature of  fear. What we now are about is reversing this displacement and
T4:3.6  forever unable to return to your natural state of being. The  fear that was birthed along with the erroneously inherited idea that
T4:3.6  beyond it, including God, weighed and balanced against the idea of  fear.
T4:3.7  as we reverse this set of circumstances, and replace the world of  fear with a world of love, there can be no more weighing of love

Tx:5.46  not fail to help you reinterpret everything that you perceive as  fearful and teach you that only what is loving is true. Truth is

Tx:7.103  What else, then, can this decision mean except that you want to be  fearful? The Holy Spirit never asks for sacrifice, but the ego

Tx:15.98  that guilt is the price of love, which must be paid by fear. How  fearful, then, has God become to you, and how great a sacrifice do
Tx:15.99  only of yourself. Yet the demand of sacrifice is so savage and so  fearful that you cannot accept it where it is. But the real price
Tx:15.101  from where it is not. Your brothers and your Father have become very  fearful to you. And you would bargain with them for a few special
Tx:15.104  your invitation bids them be. What you excluded from yourself seems  fearful, for you endowed it with fear and tried to cast it out though
Tx:16.52  as a triumph over God, would you want it? Let us not think of its  fearful nature nor of the guilt it must entail nor of the sadness and
Tx:16.53  you grant unlimited power to what you think you have attacked? So  fearful has the truth become to you that unless it is weak and

Tx:17.2 It is, then, only your wish to change reality that is  fearful, because by your wish you think you have accomplished what
Tx:17.40  to each other. The dark picture brought to light is not perceived as  fearful, but the fact that it is just a picture is brought home at
Tx:18.5  to emerge. What else could come of it? Its fragmented aspects are  fearful enough, as you begin to look at them. But nothing you have
Tx:18.17  prefer is terrifying. Your attempts to blot out reality are very  fearful, but this you are not willing to accept. And so you

Tx:18.26  for there is little doubt that what you think it means is  fearful. Yet what is that to us who travel surely and very swiftly

Tx:19.77  fear of death is really its attraction. Guilt, too, is feared and  fearful. Yet it could have no hold at all except on those who are

Tx:19.101  You do not know him, and your interpretation of him is very  fearful. And you attack him still, to keep what seems to be
Tx:20.19  frightened, and those who kill fear death. All these are but the  fearful thoughts of those who would adjust themselves to a world made
Tx:20.19  thoughts of those who would adjust themselves to a world made  fearful by their adjustments. And they look out in sorrow from what
Tx:20.20  world is merciless, and were it outside you, you should indeed be  fearful. Yet it was you who made it merciless, and now if

Tx:21.24  fit the goal of madness. The goal of sin induces the perception of a  fearful world to justify its purpose. What you desire you will see.
Tx:21.41  that you are sinful. Errors He will correct, but this makes no one  fearful. You are indeed afraid to look within and see the sin you
Tx:21.41  within and see the sin you think is there. This you would not be  fearful to admit. Fear in association with sin the ego deems quite
Tx:21.64  you choose he be is but your choice for you. Yet think not this is  fearful. That you are joined to him is but a fact, not an

Tx:26.72  and now its cause must be if its effects already have been judged as  fearful. And in overlooking this, is it protected and kept separate
Tx:27.45  The only thing that is required for a healing is a lack of fear. The  fearful are not healed and cannot heal. This does not mean the
Tx:27.47  feared. But if you shrink from blessing will the world indeed seem  fearful, for you have withheld its peace and comfort, leaving it to
Tx:27.73  world of dreams. No other cause it has, nor ever will. Nothing more  fearful than an idle dream has terrified God's Son and made him think
Tx:27.73  lost his innocence, denied his Father, and made war upon himself. So  fearful is the dream, so seeming real, he could not waken to reality

Tx:30.73  right as much as his. Nor will you think that God intends for you a  fearful judgment which your brother does not merit. For it is the

W1:134.11  what he thought he saw was never there. And now he cannot  feel that all escape has been denied to him.
W1:136.19  you will recognize you practiced well by this—the body should not  feel at all. If you have been successful, there will be no sense of
W1:137.2  one self apart from all the rest to suffer what the others do not  feel. It gives the body final power to make the separation real and

C:10.11  you are pretending you are not a body, you can pretend you do not  feel the pain of a headache or the cold of a winter day, and this
C:10.11  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 attempt to
C:10.12  And to believe in something that you do not understand makes you  feel peculiar at the least and delusional at the worst. You want to
C:10.27  open sky above, of all the “others” traveling it with you. You will  feel more a part of everything rather than less, and be surprised by
C:10.30  self giving way to the expanded vision of the unified Self. As you  feel this happening, you will begin to be aware of feelings too that

C:11.4  that the ideas of both success and failure are detrimental here. To  feel you have achieved success in learning what love is all about is

C:12.2  You feel a little chastised to be told you know love not. You  feel a little deceived to think that love may not be limited to what
C:13.1  will never fully understand what unity means, but you will come to  feel what unity means, and this I promise you. This is what we work
C:13.3  spirit. Just let impressions come to you, and when they make you  feel like smiling know that you are feeling memory return. If, when
C:13.4 While you may desire to put what you  feel into words, this exercise is not about putting words on feelings
C:13.5  with it. While the feeling of love that washes over you from one may  feel like courage, and from another like gentleness, and while this
C:13.5  gentleness, and while this is all part of what you are encouraged to  feel, it is simply asked that you let the feelings come and with them
C:13.7  of spirit and to allow this awareness to abide within you. If you  feel resistance to attempting this exercise, remember that you
C:14.2 Is it not true that you have made an enemy of creation? Do you  feel part of it and at one with all within it? If not, you have made
C:14.10  love loves you in return, and if this attention is not provided you  feel you have cause for claiming wounds that cannot be healed and
C:14.13  could not. What makes this relationship stand out in your mind and  feel so painful in your memory of it is that it was quite real in a
C:14.13  sure of a relationship's value to you. Anything that could make you  feel so joyous, so safe and warm and loved, could not help but hold a
C:14.13  In this you were correct. It was no illusion that caused you to  feel this way. This was not the love that passes for love in this
C:14.19  existing separately, but close enough that you can gaze upon it and  feel the benefit of its warmth because of its proximity. More than
C:14.28  love. Fear is always strongest when you value something that you  feel may be threatened. Love threatens most your specialness. Before
C:15.4  If within the small sphere of those they love they cannot be made to  feel special—and you along with them—then what is the point of
C:15.5  group, and your choices might affect your ability to make others  feel special in the way in which they have become accustomed to your
C:19.20  than ever before. To talk of going “back” will undoubtedly make you  feel impatient, but this is not a going back that will in any way
C:20.1  different from that which you have felt before. Your heart may even  feel as if it is stretching outward, straining heavenward, near to
C:20.1  its desire for union, a desire you do not understand but can surely  feel.
C:20.2  the universe, the all of all in whose embrace you literally exist.  Feel the gentleness and the love. Drink in the safety and the rest.
C:20.10  at last. With love surrounding you in arms that hold you close, you  feel the heartbeat of the world just beneath your resting head. It
C:20.23  this holiness is forgetting. Let yourself forget that you do not  feel holy and that the world does not appear to be sacred. Let your

C:21.3  concept, even while having a seeming structure that your heart can  feel. Concepts that cannot be felt with your heart are of no use to
C:21.3  for comparisons, for there is no need to compare what your heart can  feel. When your heart can feel, you need no judgment to tell you the
C:21.3  is no need to compare what your heart can feel. When your heart can  feel, you need no judgment to tell you the difference between one
C:22.7  your daily life, where you experience those things that cause you to  feel or believe in a certain way—and it is at this point of
C:22.12 In contrast, the layered approach to intersection causes you to  feel as if external forces are bombarding you. These forces must pass
C:22.23  and have a wonderful part to play in a grand design. You will not  feel cheated by losing your separated self. You will feel free.
C:22.23  You will not feel cheated by losing your separated self. You will  feel free.
C:23.23  unlearn your beliefs. As you begin the process of unlearning you may  feel tested. You are not being tested but given opportunities for
C:23.25  keep your mind engaged and less resistant to unlearning. When you  feel resistance—and of course your mind will resist unlearning what
C:23.26  will lead to the conviction you have so long sought, you will indeed  feel tested and will try to take control of the learning situation.
C:24.1  be a time of weepiness and what you would term emotionalism. You may  feel as if everything makes you want to cry because everything will
C:24.1  you want to cry because everything will touch you, each lesson will  feel tender. Unlearning has no harshness about it. If you simply
C:25.3  You have faked confidence when you are uncertain, interest where you  feel indifference, knowledge of things about which you know nothing.
C:25.5 How can love always be present when you can undeniably  feel each and every absence of love? The problem is in the perceiver
C:25.5  problem is in the perceiver rather than the perceived. Each time you  feel a lack of love, it comes from within yourself. This lack of
C:25.5  aware that you want something, you are also becoming aware that you  feel you lack something. All feelings of lack are synonymous with
C:25.6 When you  feel a lack of love in others, you have projected your fear onto
C:25.6  your fear onto them. Only when you cease to do this will you  feel true devotion.
C:25.7 When you  feel lack of love, you feel as if the “other” gives you nothing. Yet
C:25.7 When you feel lack of love, you  feel as if the “other” gives you nothing. Yet it is your lack of

C:25.13  It is simply your reality. During the time of tenderness you may  feel vulnerable. But the time of tenderness is a time of healing, and
C:25.13  seen disappointment as attack or hopelessness as hurt, but you do  feel these emotions as wounds. While you think you can remain
C:25.19 This is unlearning taking place. It may  feel frustrating and be tinged with anxiety, anger, confusion,
C:25.21 This will be a time of discernment. You may  feel it as a time of decision making, but the less you attempt to
C:25.22  that does not necessarily require action on your part, you will  feel some relief.
C:25.23  of discernment. You will know you have succeeded when you truly  feel as if you have “turned the question or concern over” and allowed
C:26.1  or influential friends. We have talked before of the tragedy you  feel when anyone dies young. You each have some notion of what you
C:26.6 Do you  feel beautiful and prized and worthy? Then so shall you be.
C:26.7  imaginings. You are thus caught in a double bind, living a life you  feel is devoid of meaning and letting fear keep you from seeking the
C:26.7  fear keep you from seeking the meaning you would give it. You  feel no inherent sense of purpose, no grace, no meaning beyond what
C:26.18 You may experience disappointment at these words, and  feel as if you have been waiting to be invited to a party and that
C:26.25  attempt to control what you do not believe you created, and what you  feel deprived of creating. As a being birthed by a thought of God,
C:27.10  relationship to you only exist as relationship? You think it is, and  feel yourself further diminished and lacking in identity just by
C:27.20  you are living in relationship? You will know by the certainty you  feel. If you do not feel this certainty, what can you do?
C:27.20  relationship? You will know by the certainty you feel. If you do not  feel this certainty, what can you do?
C:28.11  know and worry not of what to do. This is a difficult stage as you  feel obligated and inspired to act and yet awkward in your actions.
C:28.12 Again, as when you  feel the need to convince others of your belief, the need to give
C:31.2  to you as the idea of sharing one mind. Your thoughts, you  feel, are your own, private and sacrosanct. These highly guarded and

T1:1.3  a failing of this Course or of yourself. That your learning does not  feel complete is the result of forgetfulness, which is the opposite
T1:2.13  to see the play of clouds among the descending rays, perhaps to  feel the warmth or chill of an evening. The whole experience might
T1:3.9  you request a small miracle and it comes true, how awful you would  feel that you had not requested a bigger miracle. You will almost
T1:3.9  feel that you had not requested a bigger miracle. You will almost  feel panic at the thought of such a choice being put before you. If

T1:4.17  you time, or seems in accord with your own views. Others of you  feel it necessary to interpret everything on your own. Without
T1:5.6  as fearful of the all of everything as of the void of nothing. You  feel as if you are headed toward “something” from somewhere but
T1:5.6  headed toward “something” from somewhere but neither here nor there  feel completely real to you. The lucky among you have made of this
T1:5.7  This in-between place is your comfort zone and, although you  feel compelled to push at its edges, this pushing simply leaves the
T1:9.15  way through, argue, manipulate, or chastise another so that you  feel better in relationship to the other in the situation or event.
T1:9.15  reaction might be one of self-pity, of making oneself or another  feel guilty, or of experiencing a sense of diminished self-esteem or
T1:9.15  a sense of diminished self-esteem or worthiness. The first will  feel like an intellectual position. The second like a feeling
T1:10.2  of extremes as a lack. You will think something is wrong. You will  feel this particularly when others around you experience extremes. A
T1:10.3  the most profound sorrow or the most all-encompassing joy, you will  feel inhuman. You will think that this cannot be where you are meant
T1:10.3  that this cannot be where you are meant to be, what you are meant to  feel. You will wonder what is wrong with you.
T1:10.7  is no reason not to take joy in observing another's happiness or to  feel compassion at another's suffering. But you need not partake and
T1:10.8  to God not seeing suffering. God exists with you in peace. When you  feel peace, you feel the Peace of God. There is no other peace. There
T1:10.8  suffering. God exists with you in peace. When you feel peace, you  feel the Peace of God. There is no other peace. There is no other
T2:1.8  to be viewed as a place at which you can arrive. Like peace, it may  feel like a bubble of protection, something that sets you apart from
T2:2.2  a calling is spoken of in lofty terms. Few outside of those who  feel they have a calling for something beyond their ordinary,
T2:2.9  than a division between mind and heart. Some of you would say you  feel no calling, or that you feel many. Others would cite practical
T2:2.9  and heart. Some of you would say you feel no calling, or that you  feel many. Others would cite practical reasons for doing other than
T2:2.9  Others would cite practical reasons for doing other than what they  feel called to do. All of these ideas illustrate your belief that
T2:4.11  concerning calling as you apply them to yourself. Whether you  feel that you a have a specific calling, no calling, or many
T2:4.12  but are rather asked to listen from within that peace to what you  feel called to do. This is not about the past and all those things
T2:4.14 Now you may  feel as if this Treatise has led around in a circle, bringing you
T2:4.18  not have to “wait” to hear your calling even though some of you may  feel as if you are in a time of waiting for you hear no such call.
T2:5.1  in a call to action. We have talked heretofore about a calling you  feel from within, as if you are listening to a new voice that would
T2:7.1  of dependency that you consider its opposite. To be independent, you  feel as if you must rely only on yourself. Thus the connotation of
T2:7.2  the withholding of things you deem important. This fear that you  feel in relation to others is as true of those you hold most dear to
T2:7.7  pattern of behavior will be quick to assert itself and you will  feel resentment and claim that the situation is unfair. You will be
T2:7.13  dependence. You will not accept giving and receiving as one if you  feel able only to give or as if “others” have nothing you would
T2:8.2  Remember now that there is no loss but only gain, or you will  feel threatened by what you will imagine to be loss. Remember too the
T2:9.4  of a need to a person or system or organization. You as often  feel indebted as you feel grateful for the meeting of needs. When

T2:9.4  met, you begin to want to hang on to the relationships that you  feel met these needs because of their ability to meet them. When your
T2:9.5  you identify “having” in regards to possessions, you but continue to  feel as if you “have” needs even long after they have been met. Since
T2:9.11 As soon as you are content or self-satisfied, or, in other words,  feel your needs are met, the desire to hang on to what you have
T2:10.3  or an attempt to recall a specific event. At such times, you often  feel as if, just as the memory is about to return to you, it is
T2:10.3  has this information gone and what keeps it from you? You might  feel frustrated with your memory at such a time and even say
T2:10.18  subject matter. When life does not go as you have planned, you  feel as if your chosen path has been denied to you. You often feel a
T2:10.18  you feel as if your chosen path has been denied to you. You often  feel a sense of loss and rarely one of gain. Unless life goes the way
T2:10.18  Unless life goes the way you have intended for it to go, you do not  feel gifted or blessed even when you may have looked back often on
T2:11.15  ego is real. As long as you believe that the ego is real, you will  feel as if there are two identities that exist within you and you
T2:12.5 While you continue to  feel as if you do not understand miracles, you will be reluctant to
T2:12.14  without you, in all you are and all you are in relationship with.  Feel the embrace and the love that is this unity and know that it is
T3:8.4  before it. These beliefs hold the seeds of bitterness, the angst you  feel towards God and brothers and sisters both alive and dead.
T3:8.6  blame them for their illness? Do you not look upon all suffering and  feel bitter at your own inability to relieve it? And do you not thus
T3:10.10 You will  feel for a while as if constant certainty is impossible. This feeling
T3:11.2 Those existing within the House of Truth also  feel an awareness of Self. Without necessarily being able to put it
T3:11.2  Without necessarily being able to put it into words, they no longer  feel the statement of “I am” as a statement of the personal self or
T3:13.2  a self of human experience, or a personal self. While you may still  feel a connection to God during such times, you will not be dwelling
T3:13.10  something such as this: “I have an idea that if I sleep as long as I  feel I need to sleep in the morning, I will awake refreshed and ready
T3:14.2  or stature of some others, accept your current status and begin to  feel more peace and joy within it. If you are not well, you may cope

T3:14.11  If these regrets and blame have to do with yourself you may not  feel as if you have the right to let them go. If you do not feel as
T3:14.11  may not feel as if you have the right to let them go. If you do not  feel as if you have the right to let them go, you are choosing to
T3:15.13  in order to return you to your Self. Despite whatever method you  feel you used to learn what you have learned, what this Course did
T3:16.4 Although you may still  feel confused and lacking in ability to do what I am asking of you, I
T3:16.4  confused and lacking in ability to do what I am asking of you, I  feel confident in also saying that you are more content and happy,
T3:16.4  has been instilled within you, a hope for the very changes that you  feel you need in order to reflect, within your daily life, the new
T3:16.10  human experience. This will relate to all situations in which you  feel you have something to gain from some “other.” Again, this will
T3:16.10  others having more than you have, or to desires that you may  feel have gone unfulfilled. While you may think that this means you
T3:19.10  will be different in many ways, none of which will lead you to  feel that you have lost anything of value to you.
T3:20.6  is the most common observance in such a circumstance. You might  feel called to tears, to words that acknowledge how “bad” the illness
T3:20.6  you would think, could not be seen as anything but “bad.” You cannot  feel anything but “sorry” for the one suffering. Yet you are always
T3:21.11  experiences of your lifetime are the things upon which you draw to  feel the certainty you feel about your personal self. You identify
T3:21.11  are the things upon which you draw to feel the certainty you  feel about your personal self. You identify yourself as male or
T3:21.15  and ideas about the world you live in and the “type” of person you  feel you have chosen to be within that world. Whether you have given
T3:22.2  leaders to amass followers, I do not mean to dissuade any of you who  feel a call to represent this Course and the teachings of this Course
T3:22.2  and the teachings of this Course with your lives and work. Those who  feel this call are surely needed. And each of you will find the
T3:22.2  of ways to share what you have learned. You will almost certainly  feel eagerness to share it and joy whenever and wherever you are able
T4:1.13 And yet, as many of you have come instinctively to  feel, something is different now. You are beginning to become excited
T4:1.23  been so clearly able to see the contrast between good and evil and  feel now as if these distinctions have become more and more obscure.
T4:2.11  man into space and the one who desires to best a sporting record may  feel no desire to follow the first man into space and vice versa, and
T4:2.23  that develop with acquaintances or strangers, connections that  feel real with like-minded associates for brief periods of time, but
T4:2.29  still think of observance of what is as a game of make believe and  feel that you will have to trick yourself into believing that you see
T4:3.5 You may not  feel that you have ever intended to live in fear. But the
T4:12.9  experience sharing directly. If a time arrives when you no longer  feel drawn to these modes of sharing, share anew in ever-wider
T4:12.19  sharing in unity in order to realize some bit of knowledge that you  feel is necessary before you can go on. But I ask you to try to
D:1.17  and reviewed again. They can be used as continuing lessons until you  feel that learning is fully accomplished. They can serve as reminders
D:1.19  or transcriber, of this Dialogue, this Dialogue may, in truth,  feel like a dialogue, an exchange, a conversation, and wonder how
D:1.19  a conversation, and wonder how you, as a reader of these words, can  feel that same way. You can feel that same way by realizing that you
D:1.19  how you, as a reader of these words, can feel that same way. You can  feel that same way by realizing that you are, as you read these
D:1.22  teacher is available for none is needed. And yet many of you still  feel what you would describe as a need for continued learning and a
D:2.5  or engineer—and to begin to live that new identity. To continue to  feel a need to learn rather than realizing that the time of learning
D:3.21  that this is just the first step revealed and that many of you will  feel already as if you are being asked to learn again and not only
D:4.2  you saw during the time of learning, differences that made you  feel as if each being stood separate and alone, you are now called to
D:4.12  your belief. Despite the differences in what you see, think, and  feel, there is but one external divine pattern that created the
D:4.20  Do not long for its old structure or the false security you came to  feel at times within it. Do not look for a new structure with barred
D:4.22  for your newfound freedom. A hungry ex-prisoner may soon come to  feel the three meals a day provided in the prison were gifts indeed.
D:4.22  indeed. So too are the gifts many of you have desired and still  feel as if you need. If you have imprisoned yourself in order to earn
D:4.24  and received. Become the author of your own life. Live it as you  feel called to live it.
D:4.26  may find that it is attitude more so than circumstance, or you may  feel as if the walls that imprison you are so sturdy and so long
D:4.31  and sisters in Christ, I hear your protests and the reasons that you  feel must prevent you from the acceptance I call you to. Yet as you
D:8.13  surprised, however, if no shaft of light descends upon you, if you  feel as if you have taken that step and yet remain unchanged. When
D:9.7 As we continue, you may  feel as if contradictory things are being said, such as being called
D:10.4  reality, is not of union but of the individual self. You may  feel that to think of this in any other way will leave you with no
D:13.5  natural to you, it will seem so foreign at times that you will  feel “blinded” by the light of knowing. You will realize that you
D:13.11  and who you know others to be. All this means is that while you may  feel unable to share or express all that comes to you from unity, and
D:13.11  share or express all that comes to you from unity, and while you may  feel unable to share or express the authority and truth you know it
D:15.21  behind the conditions of learning, a step from which you at times  feel as if you are still reeling.
D:16.9  you are being something. You are alive. You have form. You think and  feel. You have even been told that you would cease to be without the
D:16.12  thought that even though you may be done with learning, you don't  feel quite complete, or possibly even feel as if learning has not
D:16.12  done with learning, you don't feel quite complete, or possibly even  feel as if learning has not quite been accomplished in you. This is
D:16.14  being, and expression of unity, you are whole and complete, you  feel no lack, no uncertainty, no doubt. You are confident in what you
D:16.16  patterns of the time of learning, all of the moments in which you  feel an inability to join in union, and in which you recognize still
D:17.7  too has caused your arms to raise as if of their own accord. You  feel the power of giving and receiving as one, for this is what this
D:17.15  have now turned to your heart, instead of to your thinking, that you  feel both fulfillment and desire. But my earlier questions seemed to
D:17.19  desire has passed and been replaced by reverence. To revere is to  feel awe, which, it has been stated, is due nothing and no one but
D:Day2.8  that causes your fear of falling. It is the depths to which you  feel you once descended that calls forth your fear here.
D:Day3.6  This is the area that you call money and that I call abundance.  Feel your body's reaction to this statement. Some of you will feel
D:Day3.6  Feel your body's reaction to this statement. Some of you will  feel excitement at the idea of this issue being finally discussed;
D:Day3.7  a spiritual context for your life can change your life, make you  feel more peaceful, give you comfort of a non-physical nature. These
D:Day3.18  yet envied. This resentment and envy fills you with anger. If you  feel any anger now, pay attention to its effect on you. You can feel,
D:Day3.18  you feel any anger now, pay attention to its effect on you. You can  feel, perhaps, the strain and tension in your stomach, back and neck.
D:Day3.19  than that of your brothers and sisters. A few of you will not  feel this, and if you are among those few, do not skip past this
D:Day3.20  heartaches or mistaken actions is any greater than the shame those  feel who feel no abundance, who suffer a lack of money. There is
D:Day3.20  or mistaken actions is any greater than the shame those feel who  feel no abundance, who suffer a lack of money. There is still a
D:Day3.21  and general fretting are done, but only to the degree in which you  feel you are in the same circumstances of those to whom you complain.
D:Day3.21  who has less might open the door for a request for what you do not  feel you have to give. To reach a position in which you feel you need
D:Day3.21  you do not feel you have to give. To reach a position in which you  feel you need to ask for money from others, even from a bank, is seen
D:Day3.26 Do not  feel dejected that you have not learned these things. They were
D:Day3.29  And those of you who scoff at these remarks, because you  feel you have learned the secret of money, the secret of success:
D:Day3.30  are not any of you, those who have money or those who have none, who  feel that your financial “health” is any more secure than the
D:Day3.31  and an eye upon the bank account? Even those of you who would  feel prepared to let it bring you joy would err in thinking that it
D:Day3.34  to address you in an in-between tone, one that will not cause you to  feel spoken down to or incite your hostility. One that will not only
D:Day3.48 These words are just what you may have expected to hear, and you may  feel a return of feelings of anger here. But we have said that there
D:Day3.50  may have many good and even inspired ideas within this time. You may  feel as if you are on the right track, that through the planning out
D:Day4.3 How can you  feel as if you have a choice when the temptations of the human
D:Day4.13  exists is no more comforting than consoling words if you do not  feel you have access to this place. It is like being told that all of
D:Day4.25  still available to you, even within your religious institutions. You  feel, perhaps, that you did not try hard enough, or pay enough
D:Day4.43  you have once again become a glutton of want, when you once again  feel the lack that you would pray for? Surely this you can do, for I
D:Day4.52  of denial contrary to the denial asked of you, or because you still  feel like bargaining with God. These things are only reactions to
D:Day4.58  to the old, the attachments that cause some of you to continue to  feel sadness, anger, depression, or nostalgia for the way things
D:Day5.5  heart, or some mid-point just beyond the body. It may, for some,  feel like a connection that arises from the earth and as if it is
D:Day5.5  and as if it is just below the form of the physical body. Some could  feel it in their hands and others as if it comes directly from their
D:Day5.12  remains the case, you may desire to give others what you have and  feel unable to do so. Yet, like love, unity is known through its
D:Day5.16 A “healer” for instance, might, thus,  feel her access point as being the hands and express what is gained
D:Day6.2  you know this is the focus of our time together, few, if any of you,  feel as if you have truly taken leave of the everyday world of your
D:Day6.2  taken leave of the everyday world of your “normal” existence and  feel fully present on the holy mountain. This is not a second-best
D:Day6.18  or will be changing the very fabric of your daily life. Changes you  feel called to make are not discouraged here. The point being made is
D:Day6.26  know this or you would not be here. You know this or you would not  feel the devotion to me and to what we do here that you do. And
D:Day6.26  to me and to what we do here that you do. And what's more, you  feel the eagerness of your brothers and sisters. If you felt our goal
D:Day6.26  would elevate only a few and leave all others behind, you would not  feel this devotion. You know our task is holy and incomparable. You
D:Day6.29  this seeming paradox. You have been told to do only what you can  feel peaceful doing, to do only what allows you to be yourself, and
D:Day6.30 Do you need to  feel desire for what you do in order to do it peacefully? Do you need
D:Day7.5  of acceptance. I say this because so many of you still do not  feel supported in your daily life. You may feel supported in your
D:Day7.5  many of you still do not feel supported in your daily life. You may  feel supported in your spiritual life, in your progress toward full
D:Day7.5  self of form, but as in the discussion of abundance, you may still  feel unsupported in form. Realize now, that this makes no sense when
D:Day8.2  to remove yourself from life. All those frustrations you currently  feel have a purpose: To move you through them and beyond them—to
D:Day8.3  “normal life?” Called to accept those conditions that have made you  feel unhappy? No! You are being called to an acceptance of new
D:Day8.4  you don't like. Then, and only then—when you have accepted how you  feel—can you respond truly. Only when you have accepted how you
D:Day8.4  feel—can you respond truly. Only when you have accepted how you  feel do you quit labeling good or bad; only then can you deal with
D:Day8.12  love, leads to acceptance of others. Knowing this aspect of how you  feel, what we are here calling your dislikes, is but a first step in
D:Day8.16  predetermine either your likes or dislikes. Being aware of how you  feel in the present moment is the only way to certainty. Thus to say
D:Day8.20  where the true Self will be more evolved, evolved enough not to  feel the anger or hurt, the bitterness or guilt that you do not like.
D:Day9.4 You who do not  feel confident in your feelings, who do not feel confident in your
D:Day9.4 You who do not feel confident in your feelings, who do not  feel confident in your ability to respond, who do not as yet feel the
D:Day9.4  do not feel confident in your ability to respond, who do not as yet  feel the freedom of the new, allow yourself now, to do so. Allow
D:Day9.6  can block the freedom of what your mind would think or heart would  feel. But take away the ability to express what the mind would think
D:Day9.6  away the ability to express what the mind would think or heart would  feel, and freedom is no more. Yet it is not an outward source that
D:Day10.14  look for reassurances and proof that you are “right” before you  feel confidence and the ability to act. To “know” before you act is
D:Day10.15  and consider our need for a distinction between the certainty you  feel from unity and the confidence you need to feel in the self of
D:Day10.15  the certainty you feel from unity and the confidence you need to  feel in the self of form. Reflect further on your idea of certainty
D:Day10.23  of this as the wisdom of an outside source, if you can hear it and  feel it and think of it as a true dialogue, a true sharing in
D:Day10.29  the many situations there are to dislike in the world? Do they not  feel for the suffering? Do they not dislike poverty? Are they not
D:Day10.39  to give and give newly now, to you. Blessed brother and sister, we  feel the same love, the same compassion, the same tenderness for each
D:Day12.6  yourself that space has replaced what was once your self of form.  Feel the love of the space that is you. All obstacles will vanish.
D:Day15.13  power even though you have been told it cannot be misused? Do you  feel unworthy and seek to keep your unworthiness hidden? Do you still
D:Day15.16  that Christ-consciousness is a form of “group think.” Never will you  feel more like an individual than when you are made known through the
D:Day15.17  dialogue is. Many resist this stage of development because they  feel they have achieved inner knowing. They may still consider
D:Day15.17  still consider themselves to be capable of growing and changing, but  feel, in a certain sense, that it is unnecessary. They have achieved
D:Day16.10  really saying is that there are but two ways to respond to what you  feel—with love or with fear. If you respond with fear you expel,
D:Day16.10  are bad. You embrace sadness, grief, anger, and all else that you  feel because these feelings are part of who you are in the present
D:Day16.11  “decision” rather than your “feeling” is only confirmed. When you  feel uneasy or uncomfortable about a situation, you determine that
D:Day16.12 When you  feel an “intuition” you respond differently than you do to unwanted
D:Day18.4  the way for those who desire to bring expression to a calling they  feel within to “do” something. It is the way for those whose

D:Day19.1  function-less and purposeless at times, while at other times, you  feel as if you are being exactly as you are meant to be.
D:Day22.6  put it into words, make it into images, tell it in a story? You will  feel as if you will burst if you cannot share the union that you
D:Day28.15 Most people  feel at least some combination of these two attitudes, but will find
D:Day32.12 Yet to believe that God is everyone can still make you  feel as if you are not God. How can this be? This can be only because
D:Day35.6  we have achieved here. You will carry it within you, and when you  feel not its power, you will be able to call it forth simply by
D:Day35.21  of having at least some role in the creation of your life. You may  feel that at times God has intervened, or that at times you have been
D:Day36.14  power—this power of being—has always been yours. The power to  feel—love, hate, anger, compassion, greed, humility, and longing—
D:Day37.16  somewhat like your relationship with a deceased relative in that you  feel a bond, a link between heaven and earth, and even some
D:Day37.18  like an individuated being, a unique being. You “feel” love and you  feel pain, and both feel quite unmistakably like “your” love and
D:Day37.18  being, a unique being. You “feel” love and you feel pain, and both  feel quite unmistakably like “your” love and “your” pain and no one
D:Day37.18  unmistakably like “your” love and “your” pain and no one else's. You  feel like a “you.” This too is “who” you have been being, because as
D:Day37.18  “you.” This too is “who” you have been being, because as a being you  feel. But here again, you have felt only as a being in separation can
D:Day37.18  But here again, you have felt only as a being in separation can  feel. You know that despite how often someone says they “know how you
D:Day37.18  you are not them. You can join in relationship with others who  feel similarly and can find great joy in feeling “as if” someone
D:Day37.18  and can find great joy in feeling “as if” someone knows how you  feel and who you are. But you have felt doomed to never being known
D:Day37.18  felt doomed to never being known and to never really sharing how you  feel.

D:Day38.2  of love, but now it is time to return to love. Do you know, can you  feel as yet, how much I love you? How full of love I am for you?
D:Day38.3  attention, I ask you to be attentive, to the relationship that you  feel with God.
D:Day39.48  is what we do and who we are? That we are creators? That we think,  feel, know, and create. Creation is the manifestation of all we
D:Day39.48  know, and create. Creation is the manifestation of all we think,  feel, know and come to know. Because we are constantly creating, we

E.2  make no sense to you. They already have far less power. Can you not  feel it? The questions remain only as questions of the old patterns
A.9 Now you may  feel quite compelled to share your experience of the Course with
A.15  ego mind and back to wholeheartedness or Christ-mind. “How do you  feel?” is a more appropriate question than, “What do you think?” The

Tx:5.95  not to be wholly joyous if that is how you feel. Therefore, the  first step in the undoing is to recognize that you actively decided
Tx:6.10  to teach it to our brothers in the name of the Kingdom of God, but  first believe that it is true for you, or you will teach amiss.
Tx:6.45  Holy Spirit is the Answer, not the question. The ego always speaks  first because it is capricious and does not mean its maker well.
Tx:6.46  are separate and outside the Mind of God. The ego, then, raised the  first question that was ever asked, but one which it can never
Tx:6.47  fact that the ego does not know. The Holy Spirit does not speak  first, but He always answers. Everyone has called upon Him for help
Tx:6.51  you are is perfectly certain. There is no doubt there because the  first question was never asked. Having finally been wholly answered,
Tx:6.69  than take the next step towards its resolution. Having taken the  first step, however, they will be helped. Once they have chosen
Tx:6.71  at that level. Strengthening motivation for change is their  first and foremost goal. It is also their last and final one.
Tx:6.72  produce fundamental change, because the mind is fundamental. The  first step in the reversal or undoing process, then, is the undoing
Tx:6.72  the undoing of the getting concept. Accordingly, the Holy Spirit's  first lesson was “to have, give all to all.” We said that this
Tx:6.73  “having” appears to be the opposite of “being.” Therefore, the  first lesson seems to contain a contradiction since it is being
Tx:6.73  their motivation. This is the real reason why in many respects the  first lesson is the hardest to learn. Still strongly aware of the ego
Tx:6.74 Upside-down as always, the ego perceives the  first lesson as insane. In fact this is its only alternative here
Tx:6.79  are still not equated. It is, however, more advanced than the  first step, which is really only a thought reversal. The second
Tx:6.81  progress is intermittent, but the second step is easier than the  first because it follows. The very fact that you have accepted
Tx:6.86  you must be vigilant against. It has advanced far from the  first lesson, which was primarily a reversal and also from the
Tx:6.86  step, which follows from the second as the second follows from the  first, emphasizes the dichotomy between the desirable and the
Tx:6.87 While the  first step seems to increase conflict and the second step still
Tx:6.90 You learn  first that having rests on giving and not on getting. Next you
Tx:7.7  the word “first” as applied to Him is not a time concept. He is  first in the sense that He is the first in the Holy Trinity itself.
Tx:7.7  Him is not a time concept. He is first in the sense that He is the  first in the Holy Trinity itself. He is the Prime Creator, because He
Tx:7.12  can seem to be interpersonal, but it must be intrapersonal  first.
Tx:8.6 The  first change that must be introduced is a change in direction. A
Tx:8.57  You have attacked him, but you must have attacked yourself  first. Do not see him this way for your own salvation, which must
Tx:9.17  This is the Second Coming, which was made for you as the  First was created. The Second Coming is merely the return of sense.
Tx:9.36  of giving acceptance and receiving it. In time, the giving comes  first, though they are simultaneous in eternity, where they cannot
Tx:9.92  create. Yet in the returning, the little light must be acknowledged  first, for the separation was a descent from magnitude to littleness.
Tx:10.16 If sickness is separation, the will to heal and be healed is the  first step toward recognizing what you truly want. Every attack is
Tx:10.34  there is a strong tendency to harbor it within. It is difficult at  first to realize that this is exactly the same thing, for there
Tx:10.39  of the ego will be our lesson for a while, for we must look  first at this to look beyond it since you have made it real. We
Tx:11.25  to your notion of salvation. The question is always two-fold— first, what is to be saved, and second, how can it be saved?
Tx:11.45  out all reinforcement is in yourself. For you are always the  first point of your attack, and if this has never been, it has no
Tx:11.73  and within, for you will see it without because you saw it  first within. Everything you behold without is a judgment of what you
Tx:12.35  own private world. And thus it is that you must attack yourself  first, for what you attack is not in others. Its only reality is in
Tx:12.67 You will  first dream of peace and then awaken to it. Your first exchange of
Tx:12.67 You will first dream of peace and then awaken to it. Your  first exchange of what you made for what you want is the exchange of
Tx:13.48  you have not. If, then, you offer blessing, it must have come  first to yourself. And you must also have accepted it as yours, for
Tx:13.54  happily accomplished. You who are steadfastly devoted to misery must  first recognize that you are miserable and not happy. The Holy
Tx:13.86  Yet truth is offered first to be received, even as God gave it  first to His Son. The first in time means nothing, but the First in
Tx:13.86  first to be received, even as God gave it first to His Son. The  first in time means nothing, but the First in eternity is God the
Tx:13.86  gave it first to His Son. The first in time means nothing, but the  First in eternity is God the Father, Who is both First and One.
Tx:13.86  nothing, but the First in eternity is God the Father, Who is both  First and One. Beyond the First, there is no other, for there is no
Tx:13.86  in eternity is God the Father, Who is both First and One. Beyond the  First, there is no other, for there is no order, no second or third
Tx:13.86  for there is no order, no second or third and nothing but the  First.
Tx:13.87 You who belong to the  First Cause, created by Him like unto Himself and part of Him, are

Tx:15.50  have also judged against both. Yet you had judged against yourself  first, or you would never have imagined that you needed them as they
Tx:15.69  know, but you will become willing to find out if you are willing,  first, to perceive what you have made of them.
Tx:16.13  with it. When two minds join as one and share one idea equally, the  first link in the awareness of the Sonship as one has been made. When
Tx:16.43 In looking at the special relationship, it is necessary  first to realize that it involves a great amount of pain. Anxiety,
Tx:16.47  how it is accomplished. The Holy Spirit knows that completion lies  first in union and then in the extension of union. To the ego,
Tx:17.23  the past to Him Who can change your mind about it for you. But  first be sure you fully realize what you have made the past to
Tx:17.44  abruptly shifted to the exact opposite of what it was. This is the  first result of offering the relationship to the Holy Spirit to use
Tx:17.58 In any situation in which you are uncertain, the  first thing to consider, very simply, is, “What do I want to come of
Tx:18.6 That was the  first projection of error outward. The world arose to hide it and
Tx:18.20  You would have used them to remain asleep. We once said that the  first change, before dreams disappear, is that your dreams of fear
Tx:18.35  not make the learner, nor can you make him different. Would you  first make a miracle yourself and then expect one to be made for
Tx:18.36  God's. Atonement cannot come to those who think that they must  first atone, but only to those who offer it nothing more than simple
Tx:19.38  will you do. Yet the peace which already lies deeply within must  first expand and flow across the obstacles you placed before it. This
Tx:19.40 The  first obstacle that peace must flow across is your desire to get
Tx:19.41  remnant of attack you cherish still against each other that is the  first obstacle the peace in you encounters in its going forth. This
Tx:19.59 We said that peace must  first surmount the obstacle of your desire to get rid of it. Where
Tx:19.59  obstacle that peace must flow across, and closely related to the  first, is the belief that the body is valuable for what it offers.
Tx:19.63  flows across all else. The second obstacle is no more solid than the  first. For you will neither to get rid of peace nor limit it. What
Tx:19.83  the power to release from corruption. What better way to teach the  first and fundamental principle in a course on miracles than by
Tx:19.83  you the one which seems to be the hardest can be accomplished  first? The body can but serve your purpose. As you look upon it, so
Tx:19.97  eyes, you will be ready to look on terror with no fear at all. But  first lift up your eyes and look upon each other in innocence born of
Tx:20.8  forgiven and you may look upon the Son of God as whole. But look you  first upon the altar in your chosen home and see what you have laid
Tx:20.18  or it to them. And so they saw that it was in them, not deciding  first where they would have it be. Their looking merely asked a
Tx:20.46  than the experience of both a holy and an unholy relationship. The  first is based on love and rests on it, serene and undisturbed. The
Tx:20.67 Vision will come to you at  first in glimpses, but they will be enough to show you what is given
Tx:21.18  because you want it. Yet for this, the power of your wanting must  first be recognized. You must accept its strength and not its
Tx:21.36  far beyond the body, supporting vision, not obstructing it. But  first they chose to recognize how much their faith had limited their
Tx:21.47  part hears as the sweetest music—the song it longed to hear since  first the ego came into your minds. The ego's weakness is its
Tx:21.70  in it. Enormity has no appeal save to the little. And only those who  first believe that they are little could see attraction there.
Tx:21.74  would surely bid him seek no longer what is not there to find. Yet  first he must be willing to perceive a world where it is not. It is
Tx:21.76 You have already answered the  first three questions but not yet the last. For this one still seems
Tx:22.14 Here is the  first direct perception that you have made. You made it through
Tx:22.39 It is but the  first few steps along the right way that seem hard, for you have
Tx:23.20 The  first chaotic law is that the truth is different for everyone. Like
Tx:23.21 Think how this seems to interfere with the  first principle of miracles. For this establishes degrees of truth
Tx:23.22  deserves attack and death. This principle, closely related to the  first, is the demand that errors call for punishment and not
Tx:24.34  of destruction, it must kill, and you are drawn to it to kill it  first. And such is guilt's attraction. Here is death enthroned as
Tx:24.43  but to destruction? Yet think not that it looked upon your brother  first, nor hated him before it hated you. The sin its eyes behold in
Tx:24.45  there to see and hear and love and follow home? He looked upon you  first but recognized that you were not complete. And so He sought for
Tx:25.82  be vengeance, which at best can bring another problem added to the  first, in which the murder is not obvious. The Holy Spirit's problem
Tx:25.84  and attack. No one can be unjust to you, unless you have decided  first to be unjust. And then must problems rise to block your way
Tx:26.32  the way to nothingness was made. The tiny tick of time in which the  first mistake was made, and all of them within that one mistake, held
Tx:26.32  the Correction for that one and all of them that came within the  first. And in that tiny instant time was gone, for that was all it
Tx:27.14  truth. Good cannot be returned for evil, for forgiveness does not  first establish sin and then forgive it. Who can say and mean, “My
Tx:27.32  for more than everything? Yet true undoing must be kind. And so the  first replacement for your picture is another picture of another kind.
Tx:27.43  the answers merely raise another question, though they leave the  first unanswered. In the holy instant, you can bring the question to
Tx:27.52  to you by all the many different witnesses it finds. Your brother  first among them will be seen, but thousands stand behind him, and
Tx:27.67  seen a need for evil in the world. And this is where your guilt was  first beheld. In separation from your brother was the first attack
Tx:27.67  your guilt was first beheld. In separation from your brother was the  first attack upon yourself begun. And it is this the world bears
Tx:27.81  for the part you see is but the second part, whose cause lies in the  first. No one asleep and dreaming in the world remembers his attack
Tx:28.23  dreamer could not be the maker of the dream. Effect and cause are  first split off and then reversed, so that effect becomes a cause;
Tx:28.24  of what has gone before, appearing as a cause. The miracle is the  first step in giving back to cause the function of causation, not
Tx:28.28  is not our concern. For you have barely started to allow your  first uncertain steps to be directed up the ladder separation led you
Tx:29.20  beyond his dreams is his reality. But he must learn he is a savior  first, before he can remember what he is. And he must save who would
Tx:30.6  do. And what you hear may not resolve the problem as you saw it  first. This leads to fear because it contradicts what you perceive,
Tx:30.6  There are rules by which this will not happen. But it does occur at  first, while you are learning how to hear.
Tx:30.9  serve to let you be directed without fear, for opposition will not  first arise and then become a problem in itself.
Tx:30.28  rules for its undoing. Let us, then, consider once again the very  first of the decisions which are offered here.
Tx:30.29  is with what you choose to make them. That is really all. The  first rule, then, is not coercion but a simple statement of a simple
Tx:30.57  as they really are. And it is recognized that all things must be  first forgiven, and then understood.
Tx:30.63  forgiveness to the love of God. Yet is the love of Christ accepted  first. And then will come the knowledge They are One.
Tx:30.74  can not be overlooked. For if there were, it would be necessary  first there be some sin which stands beyond forgiveness. There would
Tx:31.4  suited you. And every lesson that makes up the world arises from the  first accomplishment of learning—an enormity so great the Holy
Tx:31.14  of what you are. For there are steps in its relinquishment. The  first is a decision that you make. But afterwards the truth is
Tx:31.26  to make a choice that will result in different outcomes, there is  first one thing that must be overlearned. It must become a habit of
Tx:31.26  of response so typical of everything you do that it becomes your  first response to all temptation and to every situation that occurs.
Tx:31.44  to serve two purposes, but one of which the mind can recognize. The  first presents the face of innocence, the aspect acted on. It is
Tx:31.45  to those who would be generous and good. This aspect never makes the  first attack. But every day a hundred little things make small
Tx:31.54  of [the] perceiver's mind. Yet who was it that did the choosing  first? If you are what you chose your brother be, alternatives were
Tx:31.54  be, alternatives were there to choose among, and someone must have  first decided on the one to choose and let the others go.
Tx:31.55  view. The main advantage of the shifting to the second from the  first is that you somehow entered in the choice by your decision.
Tx:31.75  holy ones especially entrusted to his care. And this he learns when  first he looks upon one brother as he looks upon himself and sees
W1:I.3  in the world. The workbook is divided into two sections, the  first dealing with the undoing of what you see now and the second
W1:2.1 The exercises with this idea are the same as those for the  first one. Begin with the things that are near you, and apply the
W1:4.3  time in somewhat different form. The aim here is to train you in the  first steps toward the goal of separating the meaningless from the
W1:4.3  the goal of separating the meaningless from the meaningful. It is a  first attempt in the long-range purpose of learning to see the
W1:4.5  pointlessly preoccupied. Further, since these exercises are the  first of their kind, you may find the suspension of judgment in
W1:5.1  the day. Applying the same idea to each of them separately is the  first step in ultimately recognizing they are all the same.
W1:5.4  this should not be substituted for practice periods in which you  first search your mind for “sources” of upset in which you believe
W1:5.8  perceived sources of upset than to others. If this occurs, think  first of this:
W1:7.1 This idea is particularly difficult to believe at  first. Yet it is the rationale for all of the preceding ones.
W1:7.8  it. Yet that is precisely why you need new ideas about time. This  first time idea is not really so strange as it may sound at first.
W1:7.8  This first time idea is not really so strange as it may sound at  first. Look at a cup, for example.
W1:8.3  rather than believing that it is filled with real ideas, is the  first step to opening the way to vision.
W1:11.1 This is the  first idea we have had which is related to a major phase of the
W1:13.8  any signs of overt or covert fear which it may arouse. This is our  first attempt at stating an explicit cause and effect relationship of
W1:15.4 In practicing the idea for today, repeat it  first to yourself, and then apply it to whatever you see around you,
W1:16.5 In the practice periods,  first repeat the idea, and then as each one crosses your mind, hold
W1:17.1  you have no neutral thoughts. It is always the thought that comes  first, despite the temptation to believe that it is really the other
W1:19.2  fact that minds are joined. This is rarely a wholly welcome idea at  first, since it seems to carry with it an enormous sense of
W1:19.3  are to be undertaken with eyes closed. The idea is to be repeated  first, and then the mind should be carefully searched for the
W1:20.2 This is our  first attempt to introduce structure. Do not misconstrue it as an
W1:23.5  you see, because its cause can be changed. This change requires,  first, that the cause be identified and then let go, so that it can
W1:23.5  cause be identified and then let go, so that it can be replaced. The  first two steps in this process require your cooperation. The final
W1:23.5  one does not. Your images have already been replaced. By taking the  first two steps, you will see that this is so.
W1:26.7  First, name the situation:
W1:28.7  practice periods today in which the idea for the day is stated  first and then applied to whatever you see in looking about you. Not
W1:36.3  First, close your eyes and repeat the idea for today several times
W1:37.1 This idea contains the  first glimmerings of your true function in the world or why you are
W1:39.10  thinking of anything. Sustained concentration is very difficult at  first. It will become much easier as your mind becomes more
W1:41.4  and obscuring, yet representing all you see? Today we will make our  first real attempt to get past this dark and heavy cloud and to go
W1:41.7  is possible. This exercise can bring very startling results even the  first time it is attempted. And sooner or later, it is always
W1:43.11  seem to be unable to think of anything, open your eyes, repeat the  first phase, and then try the second phase again. Do not allow any
W1:43.11  which you become preoccupied with irrelevant thoughts. Return to the  first phase of the exercises as often as necessary to prevent this.
W1:46.6 The purpose of the  first phase of today's practice is to put you in the best position to
W1:R1.1  will cover five of the ideas already presented, starting with the  first and ending with the fiftieth. There will be a few short
W1:R1.6  suggested then. We are now emphasizing the relationships among the  first fifty of the ideas we have covered and the cohesiveness of the
W1:61.9  As a bringer of salvation, this is obviously necessary. This is the  first of a number of giant steps we will take in the next few weeks.
W1:64.10  about them and about nothing else. This will be difficult at  first particularly, since you are not proficient in the mind
W1:65.6 At  first, make no attempt to concentrate only on thoughts related to the
W1:66.7  even if you do not yet accept the conclusion. It is only if the  first two thoughts are wrong that the conclusion could be false. Let
W1:66.8 The  first premise is that God gives you only happiness. This could be
W1:66.8  definition of Him which you are believing if you do not accept the  first premise.
W1:71.9  become depressed or angry at the second part; it is inherent in the  first. And in the first is your full release from all your own insane
W1:71.9  or angry at the second part; it is inherent in the first. And in the  first is your full release from all your own insane attempts and mad
W1:76.1  are not bound by them. Yet to understand that this is so, you must  first realize salvation lies not there. While you would seek for it
W1:78.7  will see him in this role. We will attempt to hold him in our mind,  first as you now consider him. We will review his faults, the
W1:R2.2  times if you wish, and then close your eyes and listen. Repeat the  first phase if you find your mind wandering, but try to spend the
W1:90.5  only because I am misusing time. I believe that the problem comes  first, and time must elapse before it can be worked out. I do not see
W1:93.8  periods today, which would be most profitable if done for the  first five minutes of every waking hour, we will begin by stating the
W1:93.12 You may not be willing or even able to use the  first five minutes of each hour for these exercises. Try, however, to
W1:94.3 Today we will again devote the  first five minutes of each waking hour to the attempt to feel the
W1:94.7 If you do not meet the requirement of practicing for the  first five minutes of every hour, at least remind yourself hourly:
W1:95.4 The use of the  first five minutes of every waking hour for practicing the idea for
W1:95.7  for a while and urge you to omit as few as possible. Using the  first five minutes of the hour will be particularly helpful since it
W1:95.11  a mistake to continue is to make additional mistakes based on the  first and reinforcing it. It is this process that must be laid aside,
W1:97.3  use of time but is not ruled by it. Salvation is a miracle, the  first and last; the first that is the last, for it is one.
W1:97.3  is not ruled by it. Salvation is a miracle, the first and last; the  first that is the last, for it is one.
W1:106.7  you. The Bringer of all miracles has need that you receive them  first and thus become the joyous giver of what you received. Thus

W1:R3.5  are assigned. Read over the ideas and comments which are written  first in each day's exercise. And then begin to think about them
W1:R3.8 We emphasize the benefits to you if you devote the  first five minutes of the day to your review and also give the last
W1:124.5  as well, restoring them to life. All this we see because we saw it  first within ourselves.
W1:124.8  a half an hour to the thought that you are one with God. This is our  first attempt at an extended period for which we give no rules nor
W1:133.7  First, if you choose a thing that will not last forever, what you
W1:134.5  view their sins are real are pitifully mocked and twice condemned— first by themselves for what they think they did and once again by
W1:135.5 Let us consider  first what you defend. It must be something that is very weak and
W1:R4.12 Each day of practicing, as we review, we close as we began, repeating  first the thought that made the day a special time of blessing and of
W1:152.3  heard before, but may not yet accept both parts of it. Without the  first, the second has no meaning, but without the second is the first
W1:152.3  the first, the second has no meaning, but without the second is the  first no longer true. Truth cannot have an opposite. This cannot be
W1:154.6  the world appoints. The messages which they deliver are intended  first for them. And it is only as they can accept them for themselves
W1:154.6  they did not write the messages they bear, but they become their  first receivers in the truest sense, receiving to prepare themselves
W1:159.1 No one can give what he has not received. To give a thing requires  first you have it in your own possession. Here the laws of Heaven and
W1:161.12  one brother, symbol of the rest, and ask salvation of him. See him  first as clearly as you can in that same form to which you are
W1:168.4  now to give the means by which this world will disappear, and vision  first will come with knowledge but an instant later. For in grace you
W1:170.5  way, you will perceive the premises on which the idea stands.  First, it is obvious ideas must leave their source. For it is you who
W1:170.5  must leave their source. For it is you who make attack and must have  first conceived of it. Yet you attack outside yourself and separate
W1:I2.3 And so we start our journey beyond words by concentrating  first on what impedes our progress still. Experience of what exists
W1:181.3 Therefore in practicing today, we  first let all such little focuses give way to our great need to let
W1:184.13  of the Name of God. Experience must come to supplement the word. But  first you must accept One Name for all reality, and realize the many
W1:187.1  make it hard to credit is not this. No one can doubt that you must  first possess what you would give. It is the second phase on which
W1:187.3 Ideas must  first belong to you before you give them. If you are to save the
W1:187.3  to you before you give them. If you are to save the world, you  first accept salvation for yourself. But you will not believe that
W1:187.8  and correction must be made. Your blessing will correct it. Given  first to you, it now is yours to give as well. No form of sacrifice
W1:196.2 Perhaps at  first you will not understand how mercy, limitless and with all
W1:196.7 To question it at all, its form must  first be changed at least as much as will permit fear of retaliation
W2:I.11  one of the holy and blessed instants in the day. We give the  first of these instructions now.
W2:284.1  suffering of any kind is nothing but a dream. Such is the truth—at  first to be but said and then repeated many times and next to be
W2:288.1  I cannot come to You without my brother. And to know my Source, I  first must recognize what You created one with me. My brother's is
W2:WILJ.1  never changed. And this the judgment is in which perception ends. At  first you see a world which has accepted this as true, projected from
W2:326.2 Let us today behold earth disappear, at  first transformed, and then, forgiven, fade entirely into God's holy
W2:328.1 What seems to be the second place is  first, for all things we perceive are upside-down until we listen to
W2:336.1  for perception's ending. Knowledge is restored after perception  first is changed and then gives way entirely to what remains forever
W2:WIM.4 The miracle is taken  first on faith because to ask for it implies the mind has been made
W2:357.1  house in which I think I live. Your holy Son is pointed out to me,  first in my brother, then in me. Your Voice instructs me patiently to

C:P.2  in this course in miracles. All are in need of miracles. This is the  first step in miracle readiness: asking for all to be included in
C:P.44 This time we take a direct approach, an approach that seems at  first to leave behind abstract learning and the complex mechanisms of
C:3.10  a conception. Everything that has been manifested in your world was  first conceived within the mind. While you know this is true, you
C:5.20 The  first and only exercise for your mind within this Course has already

C:9.15  it lies one step beneath the surface of your self. Peel back the  first level of what your eyes allow you to observe and you will find
C:9.15  the surface aspect of your self, and if beneath that surface what is  first encountered is fear, it is from fear that all the rest
C:9.35  that you believe you have undergone, your desire to be forgiven is a  first step away from your belief that you can fix things by yourself
C:10.1  First let us consider what it is the body would use. Although you
C:10.24 Your  first realization of significance will be that all you hear does not
C:10.24  not seem to have originated in your head. You may realize for the  first time or in a different way that you have always heard your
C:10.27  without your body's eyes. This, too, will seem like a silly game at  first, a trick of your imagination. You will, at first, observe only
C:10.27  a silly game at first, a trick of your imagination. You will, at  first, observe only that which you can “see”—your arms and legs,
C:10.27  will 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
C:11.1  separated from it. There are but a few reasons for this method. The  first is your attitude toward instruction, and the fact that you do
C:13.1  takes this one step further, and is merely an extension of the  first. In this exercise you will begin to realize that your brothers

C:13.8 While you will not realize it at  first, because you have no experience but only memory of feeling
C:17.17  now we begin to integrate your learning as we move to wholeness. The  first move toward wholeness is but to understand this: heart and mind
C:18.16  is to briefly change your orientation from mind to heart. This is a  first step in what will seem now like an attempt to balance two

C:20.23 The  first step in remembering this holiness is forgetting. Let yourself
C:22.1 We will talk much more of imagining now, and you may, at  first, be resistant to this instruction. To imagine is too often
C:22.18 Obviously two kinds of meaning are being talked about. The  first we talked of earlier as the finding of truth. The second is
C:22.20  tell stories without the use of the “I” pronoun. This will seem, at  first, as if it is depersonalizing the world and making it less
C:22.22 This removal of the personal “I” is but a  first step to returning you to the consciousness of unity, a first
C:22.22  but a first step to returning you to the consciousness of unity, a  first step in going beyond meaning as definition to meaning as truth.
C:22.22  to meaning as truth. As odd and impersonal as it will seem at  first, I assure you the feeling of impersonality will be replaced
C:25.1  to ask for all to be included in what you do. Devotion is thus our  first lesson in learning how to be engaged in life during the time of
C:25.15  of making social contributions, pure joining is its objective. The  first joining comes from within and it is putting into practice the
C:25.16 This  first joining is a choice made from love without regard for the
C:25.18  that everything will take on greater importance, the reverse will at  first be true. You will see little in what you do that matters. You
C:26.3  is an axiom for such lives. Fear of the “fall” is a primal fear, the  first fear, the fear behind all such axioms.
C:26.8  I am with you and will not leave your side. I say we because your  first involvement is involvement with Christ, an involvement that
C:28.10  allows your conviction to grow. Because you believe it, this is, at  first, quite true. But now it is no longer the time to rely on
C:29.8 While this goal may at  first appear to be one of selfish intent and individual gain, it is
C:30.5  universal consciousness, though you will not know it when it is at  first achieved. For universal consciousness is knowing Self, while

T1:1.3 The  first instruction I give to you is to seek no more. All that you are
T1:1.5  is love. All that illusion provided you with was nothing. Thus your  first task as you remember and re-experience is that of separating
T1:1.11  how grand its outcome and even in spite of your recognition, at  first in mere fleeting moments, that it is a change you would welcome.
T1:2.11  in truth. The implications of this statement are far broader than at  first might seem indicated. All of these implications have been
T1:2.13 This response needs to at  first be seen in two parts. An example illustrates. To look at a
T1:2.13  or gaze from an office window. It might be a deathbed vision or the  first sunset of which a young child is aware. It might be a scene
T1:2.14 The sunset is a gift of God. It is what it is. This is the  first part of this example.
T1:2.17  above this lower order of experience is to receive and to give back.  First the sunset is experienced for what it is. It is acknowledged.
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
T1:2.20  relation to a sunset, its application to all areas of life will at  first seem quite demanding. But what is elementary remains elementary
T1:3.1 The  first opportunities for the art of thought to be applied relate to
T1:3.17  First you will say you have no objections to miracles, only to having
T1:3.22  miracles are and thus cannot perform them. You want a definition  first. What is an appropriate miracle? For whom should they be
T1:4.4  have identified serve to bring about the miracle that you are? The  first means identified was that of experiencing what is and
T1:4.10  responsible for and this lesson will become more clear. While your  first thoughts will automatically go to a lengthy list of those
T1:4.21 As was already stated, the  first opportunities for you to learn the art of thought will be
T1:4.21  interpretation but response. Response was what was required in the  first place and your inability to respond need not be repeated. You

T1:9.7 Yet you have not remembered that the  first union is of mind and heart. The first union is union with the
T1:9.7  have not remembered that the first union is of mind and heart. The  first union is union with the Self. This union with the Self is
T1:9.14  is that the one that is most comfortable and that is likely your  first reaction, is cognizant with your old pattern, or the pattern of
T1:9.15 One  first reaction might be to puff oneself up with pride, bolster one's
T1:9.15  in relationship to the other in the situation or event. Another's  first reaction might be one of self-pity, of making oneself or
T1:9.15  of experiencing a sense of diminished self-esteem or worthiness. The  first will feel like an intellectual position. The second like a
T1:9.15  position to one of feeling will most readily and quickly solve the  first. The second will be most readily and quickly overcome by a turn
T1:9.16 What “was” is being thrown out and the  first step in this is embracing what you heretofore have not

T2:1.14 This is a  first step in the change in thinking that needs to occur. It is an
T2:4.6 A  first step then in learning to recognize when you are acting upon
T2:4.10 Thus a  first step in our work with regard to calling is recognizing the

T2:8.3 While your dedication to the goal of being who you are may at  first seem selfish, it will soon be revealed to be the most sincere
T2:10.2  is akin to another belief that has been replaced. This belief was  first expressed in A Course in Miracles by the saying resign as your
T2:10.13  Thus the union of mind and heart is, as was stated previously, the  first union, the union that must proceed all the rest. You are in a
T2:10.13  the state of union in which all that you learn is shared,  first by mind and heart, and then in unity with your brothers and
T2:11.1  this truth. This forgiveness has now extended in two distinct ways.  First in forgiving your Creator for creating you in such a way, and

T3:4.7  great abuse when a second ego personality is developed to save the  first. The ego has also been dismantled and rebuilt over time and
T3:9.3  a completely new reality beyond its walls. You might think, at  first, that you are in a place so foreign that you must immediately
T3:9.3  to you and requires no new learning at all. You will be tempted, at  first, to see things that are like unto those within the house of
T3:10.2 The  first lesson is offered as an exercise in forgetting. As often as is
T3:10.3 The  first thing I ask you to forget is your need to find a place where
T3:10.9 The  first step in being able to forget such thoughts is in recognizing
T3:10.12  to dwell in this new house, but you will need to learn what will at  first seem to you a foreign thought system. This thought system

T3:14.13  be written, that which follows the first page will be based upon the  first page.
T3:14.14 We are writing a new  first page, a new Genesis. It begins now. It begins with the rebirth
T3:15.2  of birth and death. This is something we will return to, but  first let us look at other types of new beginnings and all that would
T3:18.8 It will seem at  first as if you are asked to deny the facts that you see before you
T3:20.4  as a learning device. This learning device had two aspects. The  first was to reveal to you your fears concerning the miracle so that
T3:20.8 You will see it as quite difficult at  first to respond to such situations in a new way, but all situations
T4:2.11 Being  first does not mean being better. That I was the first to demonstrate
T4:2.11 Being first does not mean being better. That I was the  first to demonstrate what you can be does not mean I am better than
T4:2.11  is applauded, and soon a new record replaces that record-setting  first; just as someone had to be “first” to fly a plane or land on
T4:2.11  someone had to be “first” to fly a plane or land on the moon, being  first implies only that there will be a second and a third. That
T4:2.11  second and a third. That attention and respect is given to those who  first achieve anything of merit is but a way of calling all others to
T4:2.11  One may desire to best a sporting record and another to follow the  first man into space and the one who desires to best a sporting
T4:2.11  desires to best a sporting record may feel no desire to follow the  first man into space and vice versa, and yet, what one achieves but
T4:2.11  Even those who did not desire to fly in a plane when this feat was  first accomplished have since flown in planes.
T4:2.12  to achieve their desired end, most who so achieve and become the  first to set records, discover, or invent the new, are not aware of
T4:2.22  effect of the cause of a heart and mind joined in unity. This  first joining in unity, the joining of heart and mind, joins the
T4:2.32  and the attitude of separation. It is seeing with an expectation  first and foremost of revelation. It is believing that you exist in
T4:10.2  up learning you will meet resistance and realize, for perhaps the  first time, that learning is what your entire life has been about.
T4:10.10 The  first accomplishment of your learning about your Self was the return
T4:12.5 Two changes of enormous proportions are upon you. The  first is the end of learning, the ramifications of which will only
D:1.19  read these words, as much a “receiver” of this Dialogue as she who  first hears these words and transfers them to paper.
D:1.20  be one of thousands or millions who hear it? Does it matter who is  first to hear the music? This is, in truth, a dialogue between me and
D:1.21  to teach the truth. In order for the truth to be truly learned, you  first had to enter a state in which this learning could occur, a
D:3.6  conditions of learning are no longer necessary. Thus one of your  first acts of acceptance is the acceptance of the end of the
D:3.7 Our  first action in understanding what we are called together to do is to
D:3.8  an idea for you to carry forward with you into the new. This is the  first of many ideas that were previously taught that I would like to
D:3.21 Now I realize that this is just the  first step revealed and that many of you will feel already as if you
D:4.24 Let this acceptance of your own internal authority be your  first “act” of acceptance rather than learning. Turn to this as the
D:4.29  given is available. You accept and you receive. You realize that the  first order of creation of the new is restoration of the original
D:4.30  Invite this simply by inviting what brings you joy. Invite yourself  first to this new world, but leave not your brothers and sisters
D:5.9  once again. As was said earlier, this seeing of the truth is the  first step as it is the step necessary for the restoration of divine
D:6.23 The  first example of the body we presented newly was that of the perfect
D:7.28 You might begin by imagining  first your actual, physical, home, then your neighborhood, community,
D:8.2 Imagine this  first as a place where no learning is needed. Ah, you might say now,
D:8.2  idea of no longer needing to learn has intrigued you since it was  first mentioned, and yet it seems too impossible, too “good” to be
D:8.3  ability it may represent. We concentrate on this idea as the  first parameter of the territory of your conscious awareness as you
D:8.7  will increase your comfort level, and will help establish it as the  first parameter in the territory of your conscious awareness.
D:8.12  of your Self is the doorway. Step through that doorway. Take the  first step outside of the known reality of your conscious awareness,
D:12.2 You may have pictured the person who  first received these words as receiving them either through her
D:12.7  read, be a sign to you. Keep this in mind as you consider how the  first receiver of these words can “hear” these words as thoughts.
D:12.11  I am about to make the two main points of this discussion: The  first is that thinking, with or without the ego, is a pattern of the
D:12.11  joined in unity. These are thoughts you did not “think,” just as the  first receiver of these words received them as thoughts she did not
D:13.3 The  first is that what you will be discovering, what you will be coming
D:13.3  as you have known it thus far. These reversals will be among the  first revelations and will seem quite simple and pleasing as they
D:13.6  know that this knowing must be shared. And yet, you will not, at  first, fully realize that this sharing is not needed so much as a
D:14.11  so without. An explorer seeking a new continent to “discover”  first became aware “within” of the possibility of the discovery of
D:15.2 The  first principle of creation is that of movement. Rigor mortis, or the
D:15.7  signifier of movement as rigor mortis is of lack of movement, is the  first element mentioned in this particular creation story. This first
D:15.7  the first element mentioned in this particular creation story. This  first mention of movement is literally present in all creation
D:15.8  was there light. Light might be seen, in this example, as the  first act of creation.
D:15.9  story, the formless wasteland, the earth and the water that the wind  first swept across and upon which the light first descended, is an
D:15.9  the water that the wind first swept across and upon which the light  first descended, is an interesting omission, made by many. What were
D:16.20  these images in your mind and heart. It is a time of letting them  first cease to affect you, and then of letting them go entirely, for
D:Day2.27 This is why you  first needed to accept me. To accept me is to accept the end of
D:Day3.1  this final surrender, there are stages through which one moves. The  first is denial, the second is anger. We have already spoken of
D:Day3.5 So our  first point of discussion in the realm of anger is that no matter
D:Day3.20  abundance have done something wrong. We will return to this, but  first let's continue with the denial of money's effect.
D:Day3.27  that we are headed even beyond desire, and know that desire must  first be met before you can be taken beyond it.
D:Day3.39  pattern of learning through the mind, you can perhaps see why these  first revelations of union would come to you in a way associated with
D:Day3.54  not planted. But the gift of the great idea, the great talent, must  first be seen and recognized, acknowledged and accepted, before it
D:Day3.56  lead you to this belief and, finally, to this acceptance. Acceptance  first that you do not believe. And then acceptance itself.
D:Day4.4 Real choice is the  first new temptation.
D:Day4.11 This is the new choice, the  first new temptation.
D:Day4.23  of A Course of Love: Establishing your identity. You needed to  first know yourself as a being existing in union before you could
D:Day4.24 What many forgot, after the passing of the  first of my disciples, was that they had access to this treasure.
D:Day4.27  a being who exists in unity rather than in separation—is thus the  first step to the access that you seek. Without knowing this, without
D:Day4.41  Why is this suddenly a choice between one or the other? It is the  first choice of the new temptations, the first real choice of
D:Day4.41  one or the other? It is the first choice of the new temptations, the  first real choice of Christ-consciousness, of the time beyond
D:Day4.54  you to fully know the Self of unity. You are about to achieve your  first glimpse of wholeness, of oneness with God. To know the truth of

D:Day5.3 For many of you, “thoughts you did not think” are among your  first experiences of unity. Thus, just as when you might look up when
D:Day5.12 Access to unity will seem, at  first, a quite individual accomplishment, something one may have and
D:Day6.15  many reasons not to make it so. And so, abundance will have to come  first, lack of cause for worry will have to come first, an ability to

Tx:15.31  you are of your Father. Let us join in honoring you, who must remain  forever beyond littleness.

Tx:15.81  beyond failure, and nothing that he wills can be denied. You are  forever in a relationship so holy that it calls to everyone to escape
Tx:15.89  love of God for you and the need your creations have to be with you  forever, you would experience the attraction of the eternal. No one
Tx:16.38  Only there is the completion of God and of His Son established  forever. Seek not for this in the bleak world of illusion, where
Tx:16.42  to the Heart of God. At its center, and only there, you are safe  forever because you are complete forever. There is no veil the love
Tx:16.42  and only there, you are safe forever because you are complete  forever. There is no veil the love of God in us together cannot lift.
Tx:17.1  and all his “sins” are but his own imagining. His reality is  forever sinless. He need not be forgiven, but awakened. In his
Tx:17.27  His relationship with you, the function of relationships became  forever “to make happy.” And nothing else. To fulfill this
Tx:17.79  accepted what can never change. And nothing that it needs to be  forever changeless can you now withhold from it. Your release is
Tx:18.24  you sought a blackness so complete that you could hide from truth  forever in complete insanity. What you forgot was simply that God
Tx:18.27  You will succeed only in frightening yourselves. The gift is given  forever, for God Himself received it. You cannot take it back. You
Tx:18.29  when the darkness in them is offered to the light and is removed  forever. My need for you, joined with me in the holy light of your
Tx:18.31 Not one light in Heaven but goes with you. Not one ray that shines  forever in the Mind of God but shines on you. Heaven is joined with
Tx:18.57  of reality, only some of which were love. Yet love must be  forever like itself, changeless forever and forever without
Tx:18.57  of which were love. Yet love must be forever like itself, changeless  forever and forever without alternative. And so it is. You cannot put
Tx:18.57  love. Yet love must be forever like itself, changeless forever and  forever without alternative. And so it is. You cannot put a barrier
Tx:18.95  Nor is there any need for us to try to speak of what must  forever lie beyond words. We need remember only that whoever attains
Tx:18.96  all learning that everything you learned is meaningless, replaced  forever by the knowledge of love and its one meaning.
Tx:18.98  every perception has been cleansed and purified and finally removed  forever. Forgiveness removes only the untrue, lifting the shadows
Tx:19.6  in the same place. To dedicate yourself to both is to set up a goal  forever impossible to attain, for part of it is sought through the

Tx:19.17  not bodies, can attack. And thus the mind is guilty and will  forever so remain unless a mind not part of it can give it
Tx:19.20  of the Son of God as his Father created him and willed that he be  forever. Is this humility? Or is it, rather, an attempt to wrest
Tx:19.25  Sin is an idea of evil that cannot be corrected and will be  forever desirable. As an essential part of what the ego thinks you
Tx:19.30  different. Yet in your mind is One Who knows it is unbroken and  forever changeless. This One can teach you how to look on time
Tx:19.33 If sin were real, it would  forever be beyond the hope of healing. For there would be a power
Tx:19.38  relationship the gift of holiness, without which it would have been  forever impossible to appreciate each other.
Tx:19.66  you witness of the end of sin and shows you that its power is gone  forever. Where can guilt be, when the belief in sin is gone? And
Tx:19.68  Who is our home is homeless with us. Is this your will? Would you  forever be a wanderer in search of peace? Would you invest your hope
Tx:19.69 Faith in the eternal is always justified, for the eternal is  forever kind, infinite in its patience, and wholly loving. It will
Tx:19.92  secret bargain made with the ego to keep what lies beyond the veil  forever blotted out and unremembered. Here is your promise never to
Tx:19.94  as you could never love the body. And the appeal of death is lost  forever as love's attraction stirs and calls to you. From beyond each
Tx:19.95  you look on this and let the veil be lifted, they will be gone  forever. All of your “friends,” your “protectors,” and your “home”
Tx:19.96  raise your eyes. Yet all that will occur is you will leave the world  forever. This is the reestablishment of your will. Look upon it
Tx:20.37  what was lost. Only in time can anything be lost, and never lost  forever. So do the parts of God's Son gradually join in time, and
Tx:20.45  but there is nothing else. And this is wholly loving and  forever. Yet has the Son of God invented an unholy relationship
Tx:20.54  The Holy Spirit rests within it in the certainty it will endure  forever. Its firm foundation is eternally upheld by truth, and love
Tx:20.54  Arms. Love's arms are open to receive you and give you peace  forever.
Tx:21.3  is unknown to them. They must infer what could be seen from evidence  forever indirect and reconstruct their inferences as they stumble and
Tx:21.10  all. The light expands and covers everything, extending to infinity,  forever shining and with no break or limit anywhere. Within it
Tx:21.21  of God's replacement for his will, a mad revolt against what must  forever be. This is the statement that he has the power to make God
Tx:21.64  choice that he is damned—separate from you and from his Father  forever and without a hope of safe return. You teach him this, and
Tx:21.90  be always yours. Here is the constant peace you could experience  forever. Here is what denial has denied revealed to you. For here
Tx:22.27  light which reaches it from the bright endless circle that extends  forever is your holy relationship, beloved of God Himself. How still
Tx:22.43  of what they have received. And so they learn that it is theirs  forever. All barriers disappear before their coming, as every
Tx:22.48  of praise to its Creator which every heart throughout the universe  forever sings as one? Which is the stronger? Is it this tiny mouse or
Tx:22.53  of means and end so easily in what God loves and would have free  forever. But be you rather grateful that you can be the means to
Tx:22.59  that He cannot use, but offer Him the tiny gifts He can extend  forever. He will take each one and make of it a potent force for
Tx:23.15  no illusion can invade His home and drive Him out of what He loves  forever. And what He loves must be forever quiet and at peace
Tx:23.15  drive Him out of what He loves forever. And what He loves must be  forever quiet and at peace because it is His home. And you who are
Tx:23.44  you lose sight of it? It can be kept shining before your vision,  forever clear and never out of sight if you defend it not.
Tx:23.54  the light they love is in awareness, and only love shines upon them  forever. It is their past, their present, and their future always the
Tx:23.54  no touch of doubt can ever mar your certainty? And that will last  forever?
Tx:24.3  smallest gift is not to know love's purpose. Love offers everything  forever. Hold back but one belief, one offering, and love is gone
Tx:24.17  Is it a sacrifice to give up nothing and to receive the love of God  forever?
Tx:24.22  could never be divided and kept separate from what it is and must  forever be. You are your brother's; part of love was not denied to
Tx:24.25  all your misery and the awareness that your plan has failed and will  forever fail to bring you peace and joy of any kind? Through this
Tx:24.29  is safe from its attack, and it is safe from nothing. It will  forever more be unforgiving, for that is what it is—a secret vow
Tx:24.29  God wants for you will never be and that you will oppose His Will  forever. Nor is it possible the two can ever be the same while
Tx:24.31  the depths of hell, you have forgiven Him Whose Will it is you rest  forever in the arms of peace in perfect safety and without the heat
Tx:24.51  that God created has He failed to lay before you lovingly as yours  forever. And no thought within His Mind is absent from your own. It
Tx:24.55  holiness? And where is God Himself but in that part of Him He set  forever in your brother's holiness that you might see the truth about
Tx:25.12  For only thus will you be willing to relinquish it and have it gone  forever.
Tx:25.17  it. Yet God has set His masterpiece within a frame that will endure  forever when yours has crumbled into dust. But think you not the
Tx:25.24  could be sure His sanity went there with him so he could not be lost  forever in the madness of his wish.
Tx:25.30  cannot change. What has been damned is damned and damned  forever, being forever unforgivable. If then it is forgiven, sin's
Tx:25.30  change. What has been damned is damned and damned forever, being  forever unforgivable. If then it is forgiven, sin's perception must

Tx:25.78  And what could this mean except that they are sins and not mistakes,  forever uncorrectable, and to be met with vengeance not with justice?
Tx:26.8  is in Heaven, so must he be eternally and everywhere. He is the same  forever—born again each instant, untouched by time, and far beyond
Tx:26.16  and worth no more than just a tiny sigh before they disappear, to be  forever undone and unremembered. What seemed once to be a special
Tx:26.17  because He knows that everything that is belongs to Him and will  forever be as He created it. Nothing He loves but must be sinless and
Tx:26.37  he really is? The unforgiven is a voice that calls out from a past  forever more gone by. And everything which points to it as real is
Tx:26.39  Love. And how can he be kept in chains long since removed and gone  forever from his mind?
Tx:26.50  because they are reversals of the laws of truth. The laws of truth  forever will be true and cannot be reversed, yet can be seen as
Tx:26.52  Yet the belief that it is real has made some errors seem  forever past the hope of healing and the lasting grounds for hell. If
Tx:26.62  is different, you but deceive yourself. What God calls one will be  forever one, not separate. His Kingdom is united—thus it was
Tx:26.64  Son of God from crucifixion and from hell and death, all glory be  forever. For you have power to save the Son of God because his Father
Tx:26.73 Yet the acceptance of the working out can seem to take  forever. The change of purpose the Holy Spirit brought to your
Tx:26.79  ancient hate has gone, and all the blight and withering have passed  forever from the land where They have come.
Tx:26.84  do God the Father and the Son return to what is Theirs and will  forever be. Now is the Holy Spirit's purpose done. For They have

Tx:27.45  healed and cannot heal. This does not mean the conflict must be gone  forever from your mind. For if it were, there'd be no need for
Tx:27.53  the instant which love entered in without attack will stay with you  forever. Your healing will be one of its effects, as will your
Tx:28.9  and could never be effects. The miracle reminds you of a Cause  forever present, perfectly untouched by time and interference—never

Tx:28.17  Purity is not confined. It is the nature of the innocent to be  forever uncontained, without a barrier or limitation. Thus is purity

Tx:29.41  to die. It must be life's extension, that it be as one forever and  forever without end.
Tx:29.57  slaves of time. Here does the changeless change, the peace of God,  forever given to all living things, give way to chaos, and the Son of
Tx:29.58  has no place to be. An idol is beyond where God has set all things  forever and has left no room for anything to be except His Will.
Tx:29.66 There is a time when childhood should be passed and gone  forever. Seek not to retain the toys of children. Put them all away,

Tx:30.43 Nothing that God knows not exists. And what He knows exists  forever, changelessly. For thoughts endure as long as does the mind
Tx:30.43  there are no separate parts in what exists within God's Mind. It is  forever one, eternally united and at peace.
Tx:30.45 The Thoughts of God are far beyond all change and shine  forever. They await not birth. They wait for welcome and remembering.
Tx:30.46  knows this light, for He is the eternal sky which holds it safe,  forever lifted up, and anchored sure. Its perfect purity does not
Tx:30.54  wants to be deceived. And you can make a simple choice that will  forever place you far beyond deception. You need not concern yourself
Tx:30.64  everything you need to walk with perfect confidence away from fear  forever and to go straight on and quickly reach the gate of Heaven
Tx:30.69 The Will of God  forever lies in those whose hands are joined. Until they joined, they

Tx:18.93  shadow of guilt upon it. Here are you forgiven, for here you have  forgiven everyone. Here is the new perception, where everything is
Tx:18.94  different. Here is the Source of light—nothing perceived,  forgiven, nor transformed, but merely known.
Tx:19.12  But through the eyes of faith, the Son of God is seen already  forgiven, free of all the guilt he laid upon himself. Faith sees him
Tx:19.56 I am made welcome in the state of grace, which means you have at last  forgiven me. For I became the symbol of your sin, and so I had to die

Tx:24.26 Forgiveness is the end of specialness. Only illusions can be  forgiven, and then they disappear. Forgiveness is release from all
Tx:24.26  that he gave it so. And thus his secret guilt would disappear,  forgiven by himself.

Tx:23.22  the one who makes the error places him beyond correction and beyond  forgiveness. What he has done is thus interpreted as an irrevocable

Tx:24.30 God asks for your  forgiveness. He would have no separation, like an alien will, rise
Tx:24.33  Look on the print of nails upon his hands that he holds out for your  forgiveness. God asks your mercy on His Son and on Himself. Deny them
Tx:24.42 Where could your peace arise but from  forgiveness? The Christ in you looks only on the truth and sees no
Tx:24.42  looks only on the truth and sees no condemnation that could need  forgiveness. He is at peace because He sees no sin. Identify with

Tx:25.47  he learns the gift was given to himself, and so they must be one.  Forgiveness is the only function meaningful in time. It is the means
Tx:25.47  Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness from sin into salvation.  Forgiveness is for all. But when it rests on all, it is complete and
Tx:25.85  can never be received because another could receive it not. Only  forgiveness offers miracles. And pardon must be just to everyone.
Tx:25.86  with vengeance justified and mercy lost, condemns you as unworthy of  forgiveness. The unforgiven have no mercy to bestow upon another.
Tx:25.86  upon another. That is why your sole responsibility must be to take  forgiveness for yourself. The miracle that you receive, you give.
Tx:26.25  Forgiveness is this world's equivalent of Heaven's justice. It
Tx:26.25  total lack of limits lies. Nothing in boundless love could need  forgiveness. And what is charity within the world gives way to simple
Tx:26.25  believed in sin and still believes that he has much to be forgiven.  Forgiveness thus becomes the means by which he learns he has done
Tx:26.25  becomes the means by which he learns he has done nothing to forgive.  Forgiveness always rests upon the one who offers it until he sees
Tx:26.25  And thus is he returned to his real function of creating, which his  forgiveness offers him again.
Tx:26.26  Forgiveness turns the world of sin into a world of glory, wonderful
Tx:26.28  Forgiveness brings no little miracles to lay before the gate of
Tx:26.45  His grace and majesty from you and keeps His friendship and  forgiveness from your welcoming embrace. Without Him you are
Tx:26.53  have no witnesses and no effects. Who looks on them is but deceived.  Forgiveness is the only function here and serves to bring the joy
Tx:26.53  Son where sin was thought to rule. Perhaps you do not see the role  forgiveness plays in ending death and all beliefs that rise from
Tx:26.54  this symbol represents is but your wish to be apart and separate.  Forgiveness takes away what stands between your brother and
Tx:26.56  the world you see with Heaven, wholly perfect and complete. What is  forgiveness but a willingness that truth be true? What can remain
Tx:26.64  laid, for healing is not needed where there is no pain or suffering.  Forgiveness is the answer to attack of any kind. So is attack
Tx:26.69  separate. From this perception you cannot conceive of gaining what  forgiveness offers now. The interval you think lies in between the

Tx:27.16  Forgiveness is not real unless it brings a healing to your brother

Tx:27.33  Reality is ultimately known without a form, unpictured and unseen.  Forgiveness is not yet a power known as wholly free of limits. Yet it

Tx:30.72  it must uphold the guilt you would “forgive.” Unjustified  forgiveness is attack. And this is all the world can ever give. It
Tx:30.72  remains aware that they have sinned. And so they do not merit the  forgiveness that it gives.
Tx:30.73 This is the false  forgiveness which the world employs to keep the sense of sin alive.

Tx:30.75  are harder to look past than others are. It always means you think  forgiveness must be limited. And you have set a goal of partial
Tx:30.75  limited escape from guilt for you. What can this be except a false  forgiveness of yourself and everyone who seems apart from you?

Tx:31.5  skill the Holy Spirit sees in all the world. His simple lessons in  forgiveness have a power mightier than yours because they call from
Tx:31.17  death. But if he calls for death or calls for life, for hate or for  forgiveness and for help, is not the same in outcome. Hear the one,
Tx:31.48  eternally. For what you are has now become his sin. For this is no  forgiveness possible. No longer does it matter what he does, for your
Tx:31.69  But should one brother dawn upon your sight as wholly worthy of  forgiveness, then your concept of yourself is wholly changed.
Tx:31.71  not perceived to be yourself, it has been given you. For your  forgiveness, offered unto him, has been accepted now for both of
Tx:31.72  offered you. Hold out your hand that you may have the gift of kind  forgiveness which you offer one whose need for it is just the same as

W1:43.9  I see through the eyes of  forgiveness. I see the world as blessed. The world can show me
W1:46.1  He has never condemned. And there must be condemnation before  forgiveness is necessary. Forgiveness is the great need of this
W1:46.1  And there must be condemnation before forgiveness is necessary.  Forgiveness is the great need of this world, but that is because it

W1:46.2 Although God does not forgive, His love is nevertheless the basis of  forgiveness. Fear condemns, and love forgives. Forgiveness thus
W1:46.2  the basis of forgiveness. Fear condemns, and love forgives.  Forgiveness thus undoes what fear has produced, returning the mind to
W1:46.2  returning the mind to the awareness of God. For this reason,  forgiveness can truly be called salvation. It is the means by which
W1:55.4  else. Without attack thoughts I could not see a world of attack. As  forgiveness allows love to return to my awareness, I will see a world
W1:57.6  within myself. The world I look upon has taken on the light of my  forgiveness and shines forgiveness back at me. In this light, I begin
W1:57.6  I look upon has taken on the light of my forgiveness and shines  forgiveness back at me. In this light, I begin to see what my

W1:60.5  There is not a moment in which God's Voice ceases to call on my  forgiveness to save me. There is not a moment in which His Voice
W1:62.1 It is your  forgiveness that will bring the world of darkness to the light. It is
W1:62.1  that will bring the world of darkness to the light. It is your  forgiveness that lets you recognize the light in which you see.
W1:62.1  your forgiveness that lets you recognize the light in which you see.  Forgiveness is the demonstration that you are the light of the world.
W1:62.1  the demonstration that you are the light of the world. Through your  forgiveness does the truth about yourself return to your memory.
W1:62.1  the truth about yourself return to your memory. Therefore in your  forgiveness lies your salvation.
W1:62.2 Illusions about yourself and the world are one. That is why all  forgiveness is a gift to yourself. Your goal is to find out who you
W1:62.2  how to remember the truth. For this, attack must be replaced by  forgiveness so that thoughts of life may replace thoughts of death.
W1:62.3  strength of Christ in you. Do you not then begin to understand what  forgiveness will do for you? It will remove all sense of weakness,
W1:63.4 The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my  forgiveness. I am the means God has appointed for the salvation of
W1:64.1  The purpose of the world you see is to obscure your function of  forgiveness and provide you with a justification for forgetting it.
W1:64.4 The world's salvation awaits your  forgiveness, because through it does the Son of God escape from all
W1:73.5  Grievances darken your mind, and you look out on a darkened world.  Forgiveness lifts the darkness, reasserts your will, and lets you
W1:75.3  shadows from the past remain to darken our sight and hide the world  forgiveness offers us. Today we will accept the new world as what we
W1:75.4  practice periods will be devoted to looking at the world which our  forgiveness shows us. This is what we want to see, and only this. Our
W1:75.9 Realize that your  forgiveness entitles you to vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit
W1:75.11  Give thanks for mercy and the Love of God. Rejoice in the power of  forgiveness to heal your sight completely. Be confident that on this
W1:78.8  him a different way and see our savior shining in the light of true  forgiveness given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God and of
W1:81.5 [62]  Forgiveness is my function as the light of the world. It is through
W1:81.5  on my recognizing what my function is, for I do not yet understand  forgiveness. Yet I will trust that in the light I will see it as it
W1:81.7 Let this help me learn what  forgiveness means. Let me not separate my function from my will.
W1:82.2 [63] The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my  forgiveness. My forgiveness is the means by which the light of the
W1:82.2  of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. My  forgiveness is the means by which the light of the world finds
W1:82.2  by which the light of the world finds expression through me. My  forgiveness is the means by which I become aware of the light of the
W1:82.2  means by which I become aware of the light of the world in me. My  forgiveness is the means by which the world is healed, together with
W1:82.4  I share the light of the world with you, [name]. Through my  forgiveness I can see this as it is.
W1:90.2  is a miracle. And I invite the solution to come to me through my  forgiveness of the grievance and my welcome of the miracle which
W1:92.6  may bring to all the miracle in which they will unite in purpose and  forgiveness and in love.
W1:92.7 Weakness, which looks in darkness, cannot see a purpose in  forgiveness and in love. It sees all others different from itself and
W1:99.1 Salvation and  forgiveness are the same. They both imply that something has gone
W1:99.2  for both have happened. The impossible becomes the thing you need  forgiveness for, salvation from. Salvation is the borderland between
W1:99.13 Salvation is my only function here. Salvation and  forgiveness are the same.
W1:99.15  that is not of God. Forgive yourself the one you think you made.  Forgiveness and salvation are the same. Forgive what you have made,
W1:99.20 Thus do you lay  forgiveness on your mind and let all fear be gently laid aside that
W1:121.4  parody of life. It wants to live, yet wishes it were dead. It wants  forgiveness, yet it sees no hope. It wants escape, yet can conceive
W1:121.6  Forgiveness is acquired. It is not inherent in a mind which cannot
W1:121.6  in a mind which cannot sin. As sin was an idea you taught yourself,  forgiveness must be learned by you as well, but from a Teacher other
W1:121.7  do you become your own. The unforgiving mind must learn through your  forgiveness that it has been saved from hell. And as you teach
W1:121.8  in the morning and at night another ten to learning how to give  forgiveness and receive forgiveness too.
W1:121.8  at night another ten to learning how to give forgiveness and receive  forgiveness too.
W1:121.13 Do not forget throughout the day the role  forgiveness plays in bringing happiness to every unforgiving mind,
W1:122.1 What could you want  forgiveness cannot give? Do you want peace? Forgiveness offers it. Do
W1:122.1 What could you want forgiveness cannot give? Do you want peace?  Forgiveness offers it. Do you want happiness, a quiet mind, a
W1:122.2 All this  forgiveness offers you, and more. It sparkles in your eyes as you
W1:122.2  again, it offers you another day of happiness and peace. All this  forgiveness offers you, and more.
W1:122.3  Forgiveness lets the veil be lifted up which hides the face of Christ
W1:122.4 What would you want  forgiveness cannot give? What gifts but these are worthy to be
W1:122.4  or transient promise never to be kept can hold more hope than what  forgiveness brings? Why would you seek an answer other than the
W1:122.8  your eyes today, and look upon a happy world of safety and of peace.  Forgiveness is the means by which it comes to take the place of hell.
W1:122.8  What you will remember then can never be described. Yet your  forgiveness offers it to you.
W1:122.9 Remembering the gifts  forgiveness gives, we undertake our practicing today with hope and
W1:122.11  of the answer brings. Today it will be given you to feel the peace  forgiveness offers and the joy the lifting of the veil holds out to
W1:122.12  been held in store for us since time began, kept waiting for today.  Forgiveness offers everything you want. Today all things you want are
W1:126.1  you believed this statement, there would be no problem in complete  forgiveness, certainty of goal, and sure direction. You would
W1:126.3  him beneath a true equality with you. He has no claim on your  forgiveness. It holds out a gift to him but hardly to yourself.
W1:126.4 Thus is  forgiveness basically unsound—a charitable whim, benevolent yet
W1:126.5 If this be true,  forgiveness has no grounds on which to rest dependably and sure. It
W1:126.6 You do not understand  forgiveness. As you see it, it is but a check upon overt attack,
W1:126.7  as worthy of His Son? Salvation is a better gift than this, and true  forgiveness, as the means by which it is attained, must heal the mind
W1:126.9  the attempt to understand today's idea. It is the thought by which  forgiveness takes its proper place in your priorities. It is the
W1:126.9  It is the thought that will release your mind from every bar to what  forgiveness means and let you realize its worth to you.
W1:126.10 In silence close your eyes upon the world which does not understand  forgiveness and seek sanctuary in the quiet place where thoughts are
W1:134.1  and undeserved, and a complete denial of the truth. In such a view,  forgiveness must be seen as mere eccentric folly, and this course
W1:134.2 This twisted view of what  forgiveness means is easily corrected when you can accept the fact
W1:134.3 The major difficulty that you find in genuine  forgiveness on your part is that you still believe you must forgive
W1:134.4  For it is impossible to think of sin as true and not believe  forgiveness is a lie. Thus is forgiveness really but a sin, like all
W1:134.4  think of sin as true and not believe forgiveness is a lie. Thus is  forgiveness really but a sin, like all the rest. It says the truth is
W1:134.6 It is sin's unreality that makes  forgiveness natural and wholly sane, a deep relief to those who offer
W1:134.7  Forgiveness is the only thing that stands for truth in the illusions
W1:134.9 Now are you free to follow in the way your true  forgiveness opens up to you. For if one brother has received this
W1:134.9  to yourself. There is a very simple way to find the door to true  forgiveness and perceive it open wide in welcome. When you feel that
W1:134.10  which would condemn. In truth is innocence the only thing there is.  Forgiveness stands between illusions and the truth, between the world
W1:134.13  Forgiveness must be practiced, for the world cannot perceive its
W1:134.14 Today we practice true  forgiveness that the time of joining be no more delayed. For we would
W1:134.15  today and spend it with the Guide Who understands the meaning of  forgiveness and was sent to us to teach it. Let us ask of Him:
W1:134.16 Let me perceive  forgiveness as it is.
W1:134.19  Forgiveness should be practiced through the day, for there will be so
W1:134.20 Let me perceive  forgiveness as it is. Should I accuse myself of doing this? I will
W1:137.5  of sickness in the name of truth but not in truth itself. Just as  forgiveness overlooks all sins that never were accomplished, healing
W1:137.7 Just as  forgiveness shines away all sin and the real world will occupy the
W1:137.9 Healing,  forgiveness, and the glad exchange of all the world of sorrow for a
W1:140.3  of the world, where one can merely dream he is awake. The dreams  forgiveness lets the mind perceive do not induce another form of
W1:R4.4  his mind no thoughts can dwell but those his Father shares. Lack of  forgiveness blocks this thought from his awareness. Yet it is forever
W1:R4.5  with some understanding of the many forms in which the lack of true  forgiveness may be carefully concealed. Because they are illusions,
W1:141.1 [121]  Forgiveness is the key to happiness.
W1:141.2 [122]  Forgiveness offers everything I want.
W1:147.2 [134] Let me perceive  forgiveness as it is.
W1:158.6  the intangible. Here is a quiet place within the world made holy by  forgiveness and by love. Here are all contradictions reconciled, for
W1:158.9  for Christ has vision which has power to overlook them all. In His  forgiveness, they are gone. Unseen by One, they merely disappear
W1:159.2 You understand that you are healed when you give healing. You accept  forgiveness as accomplished in yourself when you forgive. You
W1:159.5  you safely trust to carry you from this world into one made holy by  forgiveness. Things which seem quite solid here are merely shadows
W1:159.8 Christ's vision is the holy ground in which the lilies of  forgiveness set their roots. This is their home. They can be brought
W1:168.4  Heaven be delayed an instant longer? What remains undone when your  forgiveness rests on everything?
W1:169.6  be conceived. It lies beyond salvation—past all thought of time,  forgiveness, and the holy face of Christ. The Son of God has merely
W1:169.7 This is beyond experience we try to hasten. Yet  forgiveness, taught and learned, brings with it the experiences which
W1:169.7  in that what you will offer was concealed from Him Who teaches what  forgiveness means. All learning was already in His Mind, accomplished
W1:169.10  each uncertain heart that does not beat as yet in tune with God.  Forgiveness is the central theme which runs throughout salvation,
W1:186.14  never can deceive, although they come from Formlessness Itself.  Forgiveness is an earthly form of love which as it is in Heaven has
W1:189.3  at all. The other one is wholly meaningless. A world in which  forgiveness shines on everything and peace offers its gentle light to
W1:190.7  Your thoughts of death envelop it in fear, while in your kind  forgiveness does it live.
W1:191.10  lost, to save the helpless, and to give the world the gift of his  forgiveness. Who could see the world as dark and sinful when God's
W1:192.2  Forgiveness represents your function here. It is not God's creation,
W1:192.3  cannot even be conceived of in the world. It has no meaning here.  Forgiveness is the closest it can come to earth. For being
W1:192.4  Forgiveness gently looks upon all things unknown in Heaven, sees them
W1:192.4  of God can now replace the senseless symbols written there before.  Forgiveness is the means by which the fear of death is overcome
W1:192.5  Forgiveness lets the body be perceived as what it is—a simple
W1:192.6 Only  forgiveness can relieve the mind of thinking that the body is its
W1:192.6  can relieve the mind of thinking that the body is its home. Only  forgiveness can restore the peace that God intended for His holy Son.
W1:192.6  can restore the peace that God intended for His holy Son. Only  forgiveness can persuade the Son to look again upon his holiness.
W1:192.7  But we have indeed been given everything by God. Yet do we need  forgiveness to perceive that this is so. Without its kindly light we
W1:193.3 God offers no  forgiveness, for He knows no sin is possible. And yet He let His holy
W1:193.4  He redirects each lesson you would teach in hate to one in which  forgiveness enters, and returns the hate to love, so that the fear is
W1:193.16  time today, and in the days to come, in practicing the lesson in  forgiveness in the form established for the day. And try to give it
W1:195.8  yet retain some other things still locked away as sins. When your  forgiveness is complete, you will have total gratitude, for you will
W1:197.1  force pitted against your own. You make attempts at kindness and  forgiveness. Yet you turn them to attack again unless you find
W1:197.6  think that what is given you has been withdrawn. But learn to let  forgiveness take away the sins you think you see outside yourself,
W1:198.2  them a while as if they had. Illusion makes illusion. Except one.  Forgiveness is illusion that is answer to the rest.
W1:198.3  Forgiveness sweeps all other dreams away, and though it is itself a
W1:198.3  one must multiply a thousand fold. But this is where illusions end.  Forgiveness is the end of dreams because it is a dream of waking. It
W1:198.4  Forgiveness is the only road that leads out of disaster, past all
W1:198.8  like these, and unaware of any condemnation which could need  forgiveness. Dreams of any kind are strange and alien to the truth.
W1:198.10 Only my condemnation injures me. Only my own  forgiveness sets me free.
W1:198.11  to hide an unforgiving thought. Nor can there be a form of pain  forgiveness cannot heal.
W1:198.14  him gifts when everything is his? And who could dream of offering  forgiveness to the Son of Sinlessness Itself, so like to Him Whose
W1:199.4  for what the mind must do. It thus becomes a vehicle which helps  forgiveness be extended to the all-inclusive goal that it must reach
W1:200.6 What does  forgiveness do? In truth it has no function and does nothing, for it
W2:WF.1  Forgiveness recognizes what you thought your brother did to you has
W2:WF.1  your sins forgiven. What is sin except a false idea about God's Son?  Forgiveness merely sees its falsity and therefore lets it go. What
W2:WF.4  Forgiveness, on the other hand, is still and quietly does nothing. It
W2:WF.5 Do nothing, then, and let  forgiveness show you what to do through Him Who is your Guide, your
W2:WS.3  holy Name of God whereon His Word is written, with the gifts of your  forgiveness laid before it and the memory of God not far behind.
W2:WIW.1  When the thought of separation has been changed to one of true  forgiveness will the world be seen in quite another light, and one
W2:WIW.5  has joined our changed perception. Let us not be satisfied until  forgiveness has been made complete. And let us not attempt to change
W2:247.1  is the symbol of attack. Behold it anywhere, and I will suffer. For  forgiveness is the only means whereby Christ's vision comes to me.
W2:249.1  Forgiveness paints a picture of a world where suffering is over, loss
W2:256.1 The way to God is through  forgiveness here. There is no other way. If sin had not been
W2:256.1  and it is this we choose to dream today. God is our goal;  forgiveness is the means by which our minds return to Him at last.
W2:257.2 Father,  forgiveness is Your chosen means for our salvation. Let us not forget
W2:267.1  thought. Peace fills my heart and floods my body with the purpose of  forgiveness. Now my mind is healed, and all I need to save the world
W2:WIC.4  the final dream which God appointed as the end of dreams. For when  forgiveness rests upon the world and peace has come to every Son of
W2:WIHS.1  and sounds forever laid aside. And where they were perceived before,  forgiveness has made possible perception's tranquil end.
W2:WIHS.4  where He has been placed by God, the Holy Spirit calls to you to let  forgiveness rest upon your dreams and be restored to sanity and peace
W2:WIHS.4  your dreams and be restored to sanity and peace of mind. Without  forgiveness will your dreams remain to terrify you. And the memory of
W2:283.2  to all things, uniting lovingly with all the world, which our  forgiveness has made one with us.
W2:285.2 Father, my holiness is Yours. Let me rejoice in it and through  forgiveness be restored to sanity. Your Son is still as You created
W2:289.1  seeing but what is not there. How can I then perceive the world  forgiveness offers? This the past was made to hide, for this 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 impossible
W2:WIRW.2  no cries of pain and sorrow heard, for nothing here remains outside  forgiveness. And the sights are gentle. Only happy sights and sounds

W2:291.2  Father, lead Your Son along the quiet path that ends in You. Let my  forgiveness be complete, and let the memory of You return to me.
W2:297.1  Forgiveness is the only gift I give because it is the only gift I
W2:298.1  I restored to my reality at last. All that intruded on my holy sight  forgiveness takes away. And I draw near the end of senseless
W2:WISC.1  to God's Word to take illusion's place, the willingness to let  forgiveness rest upon all things without exception and without

Tx:22.57  hidden what mistake can there be anywhere you cannot overlook? What  form of suffering could block your sight, preventing you from seeing
Tx:22.62  believe attack of any kind means anything. It is unjustified in any  form because it has no meaning. The only way it could be justified
Tx:23.12  from each other. Both are not true. And so it matters not what  form they take. What made them is insane, and they remain part of
Tx:23.17  forms are different. And they do battle only to establish which  form is true.
Tx:23.35 How can some forms of murder not mean death? Can an attack in any  form be love? What form of condemnation is a blessing? Who makes
Tx:23.35  Who makes his savior powerless and finds salvation? Let not the  form of the attack on him deceive you. You cannot seek to harm him
Tx:23.35  from attack by turning on himself? How can it matter what the  form this madness takes? It is a judgment that defeats itself,
Tx:23.35  what it says it wants to save. Be not deceived when madness takes a  form you think is lovely. What is intent on your destruction is not
Tx:23.36  Brothers, you do believe them. For how else could you perceive the  form they take with content such as this? Can any form of this be
Tx:23.36  you perceive the form they take with content such as this? Can any  form of this be tenable? Yet you believe them for the form they
Tx:23.36  Can any form of this be tenable? Yet you believe them for the  form they take and do not recognize the content. It never changes.
Tx:23.38  bring fear because of the beliefs that they imply, not for their  form. And lack of faith in love in any form attests to chaos as
Tx:23.38  they imply, not for their form. And lack of faith in love in any  form attests to chaos as reality.
Tx:23.39  do follow neatly from their starting point. Each is a different  form in the progression of truth's reversal, leading still deeper
Tx:23.40  the rest for what they are. And they will follow. Attack in any  form has placed your foot upon the twisted stairway that leads from
Tx:23.41  some of the forms attack can take? If it is true attack in any  form will hurt you and will do so just as much as in another form
Tx:23.41  in any form will hurt you and will do so just as much as in another  form which you do recognize, then it must follow that you do not
Tx:23.41  that you do not always recognize the source of pain. Attack in any  form is equally destructive. Its purpose does not change. Its sole
Tx:23.41  Its purpose does not change. Its sole intent is murder, and what  form of murder serves to cover the massive guilt and frantic fear of
Tx:23.41  guilt the thought entails. If the intent is death, what matter the  form it takes?
Tx:23.42 Is death in any  form, however lovely and charitable it may seem to be, a blessing and
Tx:23.44  Would you not want to recognize assault upon your peace in any  form, if only thus does it become impossible that you lose sight of
Tx:23.47  only place of safety. In Him is no attack, and no illusion in any  form stalks Heaven. Heaven is wholly true. No difference enters, and
Tx:23.47  against your wish to murder. But you are asked to realize the  form it takes conceals the same intent. And it is this you fear and
Tx:23.47  conceals the same intent. And it is this you fear and not the  form. What is not love is murder. What is not loving must be an
Tx:23.50  complete as yet, and so it cannot be extended to all creation. Each  form of murder and attack that still attracts you and that you do not
Tx:23.50  in it no more. This is your part—to realize that murder in any  form is not your will. The overlooking of the battleground is now
Tx:24.27 Whatever  form of specialness you cherish, you have made sin. Inviolate it
Tx:24.41 There is no dream of specialness—however hidden or disguised the  form; however lovely it may seem to be; however much it delicately
Tx:25.15  it is gone within your mind to darken what is there. Take not the  form for content, for the form is but a means for content. And the
Tx:25.15  mind to darken what is there. Take not the form for content, for the  form is but a means for content. And the frame is but a means to
Tx:25.23  from this, to hold it up and offer it support. This is perception's  form adapted to this world of God's more basic law that love creates
Tx:25.26  the law itself upholds the universe as God created it, but in some  form adapted to the need the Son of God believes he has. Corrected
Tx:25.36  state nor time. Nothing beyond nor nearer. Nothing else. In any  form. This can you bring to all the world and all the thoughts that
Tx:25.39  Nor do you hear his plaintive call, unchanged in content in whatever  form the call is made, that you unite with him and join with him in
Tx:25.47 Here, where the laws of God do not prevail in perfect  form, can he yet do one perfect thing and make one perfect
Tx:25.48  it, he made it for himself. His wish was not denied but changed in  form to let it serve his brother and himself and thus become a
Tx:25.53  Son. This you believe. Think not that this belief depends upon the  form it takes. Who thinks the world is sane in any way, is
Tx:25.53  way, is justified in anything it thinks, or is maintained by any  form of reason believes this to be true. Sin is not real because
Tx:25.56 Your special function is the special  form in which the fact that God is not insane appears most sensible
Tx:25.56  most sensible and meaningful to you. The content is the same. The  form is suited to your special needs and to the special time and
Tx:25.56  God did not will. Yet if His Will is seen as madness, then the  form of sanity which makes it most acceptable to those who are insane
Tx:25.57  chose insanity as his salvation. To this One is given the choice of  form most suitable to him; one which will not attack the world he
Tx:25.58 Now must he question this because the  form of the alternative is one which he cannot deny nor overlook nor
Tx:25.60  were true, then God is mad indeed! But what is this belief except a  form of the more basic tenet, “Sin is real and rules the world”? For
Tx:25.66  should lack for what another has. For that is vengeance in whatever  form it takes. Justice demands no sacrifice, for any sacrifice is
Tx:26.10  approach. The aspects which need solving do not change, whatever  form the problem seems to take. A problem can appear in many forms,
Tx:26.10  lasts. It serves no purpose to attempt to solve it in a special  form. It will recur and then recur again and yet again until it has
Tx:26.10  it has been answered for all time and will not rise again in any  form. And only then are you released from it.
Tx:26.11  have. They are the same to Him because each one, regardless of the  form it seems to take, is a demand that someone suffer loss and make
Tx:26.12 This one mistake in any  form has one correction. There is no loss; to think there is, is
Tx:26.16  for all your problems. You will not keep one, for pain in any  form you will not want. And you will see each little hurt resolved
Tx:26.61  in its effects as is the whole idea of sacrifice. If loss in any  form is possible, then is God's Son made incomplete and not himself.
Tx:26.62  were made another purpose that would justify a miracle, whatever  form they took. In every miracle all healing lies, for God gave
Tx:26.70  its purpose is made yours and its effects will come to you. In this  form is the error still obscured that is the source of fear.
Tx:26.73  from God. And yet it seems as if this is not so. Good in disaster's  form is difficult to credit in advance. Nor is there really sense in
Tx:26.74 Why should the good appear in evil's  form? And is it not deception if it does? Its cause is here if it
Tx:26.74  disaster strikes, to be perceived as “good” some day but now in  form of pain. This is a sacrifice of now, which could not be the
Tx:26.75  mind. And this illusion is but one effect which it engenders and one  form in which its outcome is perceived. This interval in time, when
Tx:26.75  This interval in time, when retribution is perceived to be the  form in which the “good” appears, is but one aspect of the little
Tx:26.76  have cause for freedom now. What profits freedom in a prisoner's  form? Why should deliverance be disguised as death? Delay is
Tx:26.76  And do not let it be disguised as time and so preserved because its  form is changed and what it is cannot be recognized. The Holy
Tx:26.85  If it occurs at all, it will be total. And its presence, in whatever  form, will hide Their Presence. They are known with clarity or not at
Tx:26.87  You cannot be unfairly treated. The belief you are is but another  form of the idea you are deprived by someone not yourself. Projection
Tx:27.5 Sickness is but a “little” death; a  form of vengeance not yet total. Yet it speaks with certainty for
Tx:27.7  paint the picture in which sin is justified, is sickness in whatever  form it takes.
Tx:27.33  is no symbol for totality. Reality is ultimately known without a  form, unpictured and unseen. Forgiveness is not yet a power known as

Tx:27.86  this: that you are doing this unto yourself. No matter what the  form of the attack, this still is true. Whoever takes the role of

Tx:29.54 An idol is a false impression or a false belief—some  form of anti-Christ which constitutes a gap between the Christ and
Tx:29.54  Christ and what you see. An idol is a wish made tangible and given  form and thus perceived as real and seen outside the mind. Yet it is
Tx:29.54  a thought and cannot leave the mind that is its source. Nor is its  form apart from the idea it represents. All forms of anti-Christ

Tx:29.69 Whenever you feel fear in any  form—and you are fearful if you do not feel a deep content, a

Tx:30.74  There would be an error that is more than a mistake—a special  form of error which remains unchangeable, eternal, and beyond
Tx:30.89  before, and now you think it real again. Reality is thus reduced to  form and capable of change. Reality is changeless. It is this that

Tx:31.24  you want and needs the same as you. It takes perhaps a different  form in him, but it is not the form you answer to. He asks and you
Tx:31.24  you. It takes perhaps a different form in him, but it is not the  form you answer to. He asks and you receive, for you have come with

W1:5.1  not true. However, until you learn that form does not matter, each  form becomes a proper subject for the exercises for the day. Applying
W1:5.2  the idea for today for a specific perceived cause of an upset in any  form, use both the name of the form in which you see the upset and
W1:5.2  perceived cause of an upset in any form, use both the name of the  form in which you see the upset and the cause which you ascribe to
W1:5.9 I cannot keep this  form of upset and let the others go. For the purposes of these
W1:6.1  to the preceding ones. Again, it is necessary to name both the  form of upset (anger, fear, worry, depression, and so on) and the
W1:6.7 I cannot keep this  form of upset and let the others go. For the purposes of these
W1:10.2 This is the second time we have used this kind of idea. The  form is only slightly different. This time the idea is introduced
W1:11.1  world you see. Be glad indeed to practice the idea in this initial  form, for in this idea is your release made sure. The key to
W1:13.1 Today's idea is really another  form of the preceding one, except that it is more specific as to the
W1:13.8 You may find it difficult to avoid resistance in one  form or another to this concluding statement. Whatever form such
W1:13.8  in one form or another to this concluding statement. Whatever  form such resistance may take, remind yourself that you are really
W1:16.7  of a particular thought which arouses uneasiness. The following  form is suggested for this purpose:
W1:21.2  or anticipated, which arouse anger in you. The anger may take the  form of any reaction ranging from mild irritation to rage. The degree
W1:21.6  this aspect. If your perception of the person is suffering from this  form of distortion, say:
W1:22.4  see nothing that will last. What I see is not real. What I see is a  form of vengeance.
W1:24.5  as possible that you would like to be met in its resolution. The  form of each application should be roughly as follows:
W1:26.6  whose outcomes are causing you concern. The concern may take the  form of depression, worry, anger, a sense of imposition, fear,
W1:31.1  and the world you see within. In applying the idea, we will use a  form of practice which will be used more and more, with changes as
W1:31.1  more and more, with changes as indicated. Generally speaking, the  form includes two aspects, one in which you apply the idea on a more
W1:31.5  for today is a particularly useful one to use as a response to any  form of temptation. It is a declaration that you will not yield to it
W1:33.5  yourself several times. Closing your eyes will probably help in this  form of application.
W1:34.5  protect yourself from temptation throughout the day. If a specific  form of temptation arises in your awareness, the exercise should take
W1:34.5  temptation arises in your awareness, the exercise should take this  form:
W1:34.7 If the inroads on your peace of mind take the  form of more generalized adverse emotions, such as depression,
W1:34.7  such as depression, anxiety, or worry, use the idea in its original  form. If you find you need more than one application of today's idea
W1:35.11  the idea for today to them, adding the idea to each of them in the  form stated above. If nothing particular occurs to you, merely repeat
W1:36.2  throughout the day. The longer practice periods should take this  form:
W1:38.3  of your holiness to all problems, difficulties, or suffering in any  form that you happen to think of in yourself or someone else. We will
W1:38.4  specifically and also the name of the person concerned. Use this  form in applying the idea for today:
W1:38.9 In the frequent shorter applications, apply the idea in its original  form unless a specific problem concerning you or someone else arises
W1:38.9  else arises or comes to mind. In that event, use the more specific  form of application.
W1:39.6  Then with closed eyes search out your unloving thoughts in whatever  form they appear—uneasiness, depression, anger, fear, worry,
W1:39.6  anger, fear, worry, attack, insecurity, and so on. Whatever  form they take, they are unloving and therefore fearful. And so it is
W1:39.11  free to introduce variety into your practice periods in whatever  form appeals to you. Do not, however, change the idea itself in
W1:39.12 End each practice period by repeating the idea in its original  form once more, and adding:
W1:39.14  or preferably both. If temptations arise, a particularly helpful  form of the idea is:
W1:43.12 In applying today's idea in the shorter practice periods, the  form may vary according to the circumstances and situations in which
W1:43.14 This  form is equally applicable to strangers and to those you know well.
W1:43.15  distress you in any way. For this kind of application, use this  form:
W1:43.17  itself to your awareness, merely repeat the idea in its original  form.
W1:44.3  to attempt to reach that light. For this purpose, we will use a  form of practice which has been suggested before and which we will
W1:44.3  which we will utilize increasingly. It is a particularly difficult  form for the undisciplined mind and represents a major goal of mind
W1:44.4  the time merely slipping by with little or no sense of strain. The  form of exercise we will use today is the most natural and easy one
W1:44.5  mind is no longer wholly untrained. You are quite ready to learn the  form of exercise we will use today, but you may find that you will
W1:44.5  resistance. The reason is very simple. While you practice in this  form, you leave behind everything that you now believe and all the
W1:44.8 While no particular  form of approach is advocated, what is needful is a sense of the
W1:44.9 If resistance rises in any  form, pause long enough to repeat today's idea, keeping your eyes
W1:45.4  five-minute practice periods for today will take the same general  form that we used in applying yesterday's idea. We will attempt to
W1:45.12 In using the shorter  form for applying today's idea, try to remember how important it is
W1:46.10 The  form of the applications may vary considerably, but the central idea
W1:46.13  a repetition of the idea for today in the original or in a related  form as you prefer. Be sure, however, to make more specific
W1:R1.6  purposes the ideas are not always given in quite their original  form of statement. Use them as they are given here. It is not
W1:54.4  Even the mad idea of separation had to be shared before it could  form the basis of the world I see. Yet that sharing was a sharing of
W1:55.3 [22] What I see is a  form of vengeance. The world I see is hardly the representation of
W1:64.2 Nothing the body's eyes seem to see can be anything but a  form of temptation, since this was the purpose of the body itself.
W1:64.6  Can such a simple decision really be difficult to make? Let not the  form of the decision deceive you. Complexity of form does not imply
W1:64.6  to make? Let not the form of the decision deceive you. Complexity of  form does not imply complexity of content. It is impossible that any
W1:65.12  periods, which should be undertaken at least once an hour, use this  form in applying today's idea:
W1:66.14  which would be most helpful today if undertaken twice an hour, this  form of the application is suggested:
W1:68.11  periods should include a quick application of today's idea in this  form, whenever any thought of grievance arises against anyone,
W1:68.13 In addition, repeat the idea several times an hour in this  form:
W1:70.1 All temptation is nothing more than some  form of the basic temptation not to believe the idea for today.
W1:71.13  temptation to hold grievances today, and respond to them with this  form of today's idea:
W1:73.17  hour. It is most important, however, to apply today's idea in this  form immediately you are tempted to hold a grievance of any kind.
W1:79.6  could recognize that your only problem is separation, no matter what  form it takes, you could accept the answer because you would see its
W1:79.10 Be not deceived by the  form of problems today. Whenever any difficulty seems to rise, tell
W1:R2.2 The longer practice periods will follow this general  form: take about 15 minutes for each of them, and begin by thinking
W1:R2.3  to waver in the face of distracting thoughts. Realize that, whatever  form such thoughts may take, they have no meaning and no power.
W1:R2.5  in the shorter practice periods as well, using the original  form of the idea for general application and a more specific form
W1:R2.5  form of the idea for general application and a more specific  form when needed. Some specific forms will be included in the
W1:90.2  can be solved. Let me realize today that the problem is always some  form of grievance which I would cherish. Let me also understand that
W1:91.14  in light. Also, be sure to meet temptation with today's idea. This  form would be helpful for this special purpose:
W1:95.6  terms of time is not the ideal requirement for the most beneficial  form of practice in salvation. It is advantageous, however, for those
W1:99.7  along with Him. He has one answer to appearances regardless of their  form, their size, their depth, or any attribute they seem to have:
W1:101.2  and it will seek them out and find them somewhere, sometime, in some  form which evens the account they owe to God. They would escape Him
W1:101.4  If sin is real, its offering is death and meted out in cruel  form to match the vicious wishes in which sin is born. If sin is

W1:R3.11  think of it again. These practice periods are planned to help you  form the habit of applying what you learn each day to everything you
W1:121.10  despise or merely try to overlook. It does not matter what the  form your anger takes. You probably have chosen him already. He will
W1:130.12  would show to you. All you need say to any part of hell, whatever  form it takes, is simply this:
W1:132.8  lesson now. Their readiness will bring the lesson to them in some  form which they can understand and recognize. Some see it suddenly on
W1:133.7  no offering to him who chooses it. He is deceived by nothing in a  form he thinks he likes.
W1:134.9  When you feel that you are tempted to accuse someone of sin in any  form, do not allow your mind to dwell on what you think he did, for
W1:138.2  in God's creation cannot enter here unless it is reflected in some  form the world can understand. Truth cannot come where it could only
W1:138.6 In this insanely complicated world, Heaven appears to take the  form of choice rather than merely being what it is. Of all the
W1:140.1  illusion for illusion. One belief in sickness takes another  form, and so the patient now perceives himself as well.
W1:140.3  The dreams forgiveness lets the mind perceive do not induce another  form of sleep, so that the dreamer dreams another dream. His happy
W1:140.4  Sickness where guilt is absent cannot come, for it is but another  form of guilt. Atonement does not heal the sick, for that is not a
W1:140.6  by its size, its seeming gravity, or anything that is related to the  form it takes. It merely focuses on what it is and knows that no
W1:140.10  our charms and medicines, our chants and bits of magic in whatever  form they took. We will be still and listen for the Voice of healing
W1:153.4  all the prices which the ego would exact. In them lies madness in a  form so grim that hope of sanity seems but to be an idle dream,
W1:153.15 Today we practice in a  form we will maintain for quite a while. We will begin each day by
W1:157.8 The time will come when you will not return in the same  form in which you now appear, for you will have no need of it. Yet

W1:161.7  must be a thing to be attacked. An enemy must be perceived in such a  form he can be touched and seen and heard and ultimately killed. When

W1:163.6 It is impossible to worship death in any  form and still select a few you would not cherish and would yet avoid
W1:163.8  them this today. There is no death, and we renounce it now in every  form for their salvation and our own as well. God made not death.
W1:163.8  their salvation and our own as well. God made not death. Whatever  form it takes must therefore be illusion. This the stand we take
W1:167.4  own origin, apart from it in kind as well as distance, time, and  form.
W1:167.7 The opposite of life can only be another  form of life. As such, it can be reconciled with what created it
W1:167.7  with what created it because it is not opposite in truth. Its  form may change; it may appear to be what it is not. Yet mind is
W1:167.10  dreams an opposite to what he is? We will not ask for death in any  form today. Nor will we let imagined opposites to life abide even an

W1:186.14  they come from Formlessness Itself. Forgiveness is an earthly  form of love which as it is in Heaven has no form. Yet what is needed
W1:186.14  is an earthly form of love which as it is in Heaven has no  form. Yet what is needed here is given here as it is needed. In this
W1:186.14  form. Yet what is needed here is given here as it is needed. In this  form, you can fulfill your function even here, although what love
W1:187.2  give ideas away, you strengthen them in your own mind. Perhaps the  form in which the thought seems to appear is changed in giving. Yet
W1:187.2  changed in giving. Yet it must return to him who gives. Nor can the  form it takes be less acceptable. It must be more.
W1:187.4  thought you did not have is thereby proven yours. Yet value not its  form. For this will change and grow unrecognizable in time, however
W1:187.4  unrecognizable in time, however much you try to keep it safe. No  form endures. It is the thought behind the form of things that lives
W1:187.4  try to keep it safe. No form endures. It is the thought behind the  form of things that lives unchangeable.
W1:187.5  both must gain in this exchange, for each will have the thought in  form most helpful to him. What he seems to lose is always something
W1:187.8  correct it. Given first to you, it now is yours to give as well. No  form of sacrifice and suffering can long endure before the face of
W1:187.9  look. The blessedness you will behold will take away all thought of  form and leave instead the perfect gift forever there, forever to
W1:187.11  everything we see. For where we see it, it will be returned to us in  form of lilies we can lay upon our altar, making it a home for
W1:189.2  you came, and sings your praises as it keeps you safe from every  form of danger and of pain. It offers you a warm and gentle home in
W1:190.1 Pain is a wrong perspective. When it is experienced in any  form, it is a proof of self-deception. It is not a fact at all. There
W1:190.1  is a proof of self-deception. It is not a fact at all. There is no  form it takes which will not disappear if seen aright. For pain
W1:190.1  aright. For pain proclaims God cruel. How could it be real in any  form? It witnesses to God the Father's hatred of His Son, the
W1:190.8 Pain is the thought of evil taking  form and working havoc in your holy mind. Pain is the ransom you have
W1:192.3  the closest it can come to earth. For being Heaven-borne, it has no  form at all. Yet God created One Who has the power to translate into
W1:192.3  form at all. Yet God created One Who has the power to translate into  form the wholly formless. What He makes are dreams, but of a kind so
W1:193.3  no sin is possible. And yet He let His holy law of Love be given  form in which it could be offered to the world. And He created One
W1:193.3  be offered to the world. And He created One Who could perceive what  form this law should take, to be received by every mind which had
W1:193.5  Each lesson has a central thought, the same in all of them. The  form alone is changed, with different circumstances and events, with
W1:193.7  to be but unforgiveness. Yet that is the content underneath the  form. It is this sameness which makes learning sure because the

W1:196.6 Such is the  form of madness you believe if you accept the fearful thought you can
W1:196.6  thought you can attack another and be free yourself. Until this  form is changed, there is no hope. Until you see that this, at least,
W1:196.7 To question it at all, its  form must first be changed at least as much as will permit fear of
W1:198.11 Do not forget today that there can be no  form of suffering that fails to hide an unforgiving thought. Nor can
W1:198.11  that fails to hide an unforgiving thought. Nor can there be a  form of pain forgiveness cannot heal.

C:3.4  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 form. To truly
C:3.4  even in the form of Christ, is to seek for what is forever without  form. To truly see is to begin to see the formless. To begin to see
C:3.6  to love, as you do here as well. But love did not attach itself to  form and say, “This is what I am.” How can anything have a form
C:3.6  itself to form and say, “This is what I am.” How can anything have a  form except in symbols? A family crest, a mother's ring, a wedding

C:3.7  the form as it is but only as what it will do for you. You imprison  form within your meaning, and still your meaning is truer than its

C:8.18  you stand back and observe your body, this is what you will see: a  form moving through time and place. You may be more aware than ever
C:9.2  you deem under yours. But remember now how like to creation in  form if not in substance what you have made is. Creation needs no
C:9.23  to fulfill your needs. For most of you, this trying takes on the  form of work and you spend your entire life working to meet your
C:9.43 Use, in any  form, leads to bondage, and so to perceive a world based on use is to
C:10.2  indeed ridiculous. Joining happens in relationship, not in physical  form. Joining is not the obliteration of one thing to make another—
C:10.15  you believe that I was the Son of God before I was born into human  form, during the time I existed in human form, and after I rose
C:10.15  I was born into human form, during the time I existed in human  form, and after I rose again? This is rightly called the mystery of
C:10.23  observer. As you watch your hands go about their work or the shadow  form on the ground as you walk to and fro, you will be learning the
C:10.29 This body that you claim to be your “self” is but a  form—how can it be that you can see it not?
C:12.12  countless ages. Perhaps you believe that long ago you evolved from a  form different than that which you inhabit now; but certainly within

C:16.13 This  form of forgiveness seems impossible to you because you look upon an
C:16.24  time that was, and yet you repeat the same history but in different  form. If a talented physician were to give up his power to heal you
C:18.2  one link in the chain were to be removed, the chain would no longer  form a circle but would fall, each end suspended in space. The chain

C:19.2  was, in the instant of creation, anticipated and provided in a  form consistent with creation's laws. While this world was created
C:19.8  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 your brothers and
C:19.17 Your only concept of oneness is of a single  form, a single entity. There is either one chair or two. One table or
C:20.4 “Thingness” is over, and your identity no longer stands in  form but flows from life itself. Your beauty is the gathering of the
C:20.8  no longer looking out but looking in. All landscapes and horizons  form within the embrace. All beauty resides there. All light is fused
C:20.12 We exist in the embrace of love like the layers of light that  form a rainbow, indivisible and curved inward upon each other. Love

C:21.2  of your particularity. Particularity has to do with mass, substance,  form. Your being is far beyond your imagined reliance on the

C:21.3 The holy relationship in its broadened  form is eternity, the eternity of the embrace. If the embrace is the

C:23.10  body politic. A body of knowledge. Belief fostered the form and the  form was meant to foster the belief. Thus belief and form have a
C:23.10  form and the form was meant to foster the belief. Thus belief and  form have a symbiotic relationship. Understanding of this loving

C:23.11  required. Belief fostered the union of atoms and cells into the  form required by the belief in the separated self. Belief of another
C:23.11  separated self. Belief of another kind can foster the creation of  form of another kind.
C:23.12 If  form is an extension of belief you can see why what you believe is
C:23.12  you can see why what you believe is critical to how you live with  form. We are speaking here of ways of thinking similar to those which
C:23.12  have most often begun with an alteration of beliefs regarding  form. Here we have taken an opposite approach, beginning with
C:23.12  your identity and concluding with exercises to alter your belief in  form. This is consistent with our primary focus on learning from the

C:23.19  spark is inspiration, the infusion of spirit. Taking the creation of  form backward, it leads to this conclusion: Spirit precedes
C:23.19  imagination, imagination precedes belief, and belief precedes  form.
C:23.20  link with the one Source. Spirit is directly from the Source, while  form is a by-product of spirit. Thus form is once removed, or further
C:23.20  directly from the Source, while form is a by-product of spirit. Thus  form is once removed, or further away from the Source. Again working
C:23.20  further away from the Source. Again working backward, however, the  form you have created is still a step necessary in the return to the
C:23.20  return to the Source. The necessary step is that of moving beyond  form—recognizing and acknowledging form for what it is and then
C:23.20  step is that of moving beyond form—recognizing and acknowledging  form for what it is and then continuing on, working backward to
C:23.21 You then can move forward again, taking  form beyond its given parameters and becoming a miracle worker.
C:23.22  The purging of old beliefs frees space for the new. It allows your  form to reflect what and who you are now in terms that coincide with
C:26.20  inviolate? The answer that only you can hear. There is no mold, no  form, no stock answer. This is why all answers have disappointed you
C:26.22  is known about you. God's idea of you is perfect, and until now your  form has been but an imperfect representation of God's idea. In God's
C:26.24 This is not a place of physical  form but a place of holiness, an integral place in the pattern that

C:28.12  others of your belief, the need to give form to what is beyond  form misses the point of what you have gained. You may be asking now,
C:30.8  being and no present in matter. In matter, being must be attached to  form. In the sense of time described by the word present, there is no
C:30.13  of love and its location is your own heart. Think now of the created  form, the body. When the heart stops beating, life is seen to be
C:30.13  over. Are you thus your heart? Or can you not see that the created  form was made in God's own image, as was all creation. You are God's
C:30.13  in God's own image, as was all creation. You are God's image given  form, as is all creation. We, all of us together, are the heartbeat
C:31.5  illustrate, while all bodies are the same, they are also different.  Form but imitates content.

T1:4.22  on the maturity required to reinterpret previous lessons. To  form a new opinion about something gives you a feeling of
T1:7.2  This acceptance is due to the belief that spirit has chosen a  form, and more accurately put a “lesser” form in which to exist, and
T1:7.2  that spirit has chosen a form, and more accurately put a “lesser”  form in which to exist, and that that choice includes the choice to
T1:8.2  and the life.” What I was in life was the manifestation, in  form, of the Will of God. Thus too have you been. God is the giver of
T1:8.5  separation. Even though the resurrection returned not life to the  form I once occupied, it returned me to you in the form of the
T1:8.5  not life to the form I once occupied, it returned me to you in the  form of the resurrected Christ who exists in all of you, bringing
T1:8.8  the proof required, much as proof has been offered to you now in the  form of miracles. How could one rise from the dead and others not
T1:8.13  resurrected. It is through the Blessed Virgin Mary's resurrection in  form that the new pattern of life is revealed.
T1:8.14 The new pattern of life is the ability to resurrect in  form. The ability to resurrect in life. The ability to resurrect now.
T1:8.16  male and female is but union of the parts of yourself expressed in  form and story, expressed, in other words, in a visual pattern that
T1:9.2  and the separation of male and female continues to exist only in  form.
T1:9.3 However, we are talking now, in a certain sense, of an elevation of  form. While this is actually an elevation beyond form, it must begin
T1:9.3  of an elevation of form. While this is actually an elevation beyond  form, it must begin in the reality where you think you are. In other
T1:9.3  reality where you think you are. In other words, it must begin with  form. You cannot await some changed state but must create the changed
T1:9.9  to make it known that while I would die and resurrect into a new  form, you would also; that this new form would exist within you; that
T1:9.9  die and resurrect into a new form, you would also; that this new  form would exist within you; that you would become the Body of Christ
T2:1.8  that 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
T2:1.8  aid. But you are ready now to begin to think without the need for  form.
T2:1.9  as hoping to develop into abilities, are given a structure and  form in your thinking of them. A desire to paint, in your thoughts
T2:1.9  scenes of things and places, or in other words, of the external, of  form.
T2:1.10 Thinking without  form is a harbinger of unity. Form is a product of the separation.
T2:1.10 Thinking without form is a harbinger of unity.  Form is a product of the separation. Thought “forms” are the product
T2:3.2 There would be no need for  form if there had been no desire for expression. Life is the desire
T2:5.1  you, as in a call to be a minister, nor that it will come in but one  form, as in a call to action. We have talked heretofore about a
T2:5.3 The call that comes in the  form of an announcement is the call that carries with it no
T2:5.3  you that it is time to act. This might be considered the highest  form of call, the call from the already accomplished to the already
T2:5.5 Calls that seem to come in the  form of demands are often calls that come to you from within the

T2:5.6  that appears in the form of a sign and the call that comes in the  form of a demand, are about specifics in a way that the call that
T2:5.7  exists in relationship. Thus, all the calls that come to you in the  form of signs or demands will be calls that assist you in integrating
T2:6.8  Christ in you even while you continue to grow and change. Physical  form and action of all kinds are but expressions of what already
T2:6.10  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 flesh.
T2:8.3  first seem selfish, it will soon be revealed to be the most sincere  form of relationship. Relationship based on anything other than who
T2:8.4  to act on this knowing. These are calls to truth and but take the  form of honesty for a brief time as the truth of who you are is
T2:8.6  of who you are has not changed and you are as you were created.  Form and behavior are, however, subject to change, as are your
T2:9.13  drive that has become instinctual to you. As a being existing in  form, you have honed certain instincts over millennia, such as the
T2:9.13  such as the instinct to survive, in order to carry on in physical  form.
T2:11.4  will, in a sense, be forever with you, much as the body that is your  form will remain with you until your death. But while your perception
T2:11.4  as your identity and your home has given way to an idea of it as a  form that can be of service to you and your expression, there is no
T2:11.15  ego acting as devil and defender of evil. This is nonsense, or but a  form of the insanity that is prevalent still, even in your thinking.
T2:13.5  exist here and remain forever beyond all time and the passing of all  form. It is an attitude of praise and thankfulness that flows between

T3:1.13  only place where such work can be done. We work with what we have, a  form fully able to represent the truth and, in so doing, we bring the
T3:2.3  to share yourself in a new way. The choice to represent your Self in  form was a choice for separation but not because separation itself
T3:2.3  you started out to achieve—that of a new way of expression in a  form that would expand awareness, through relationship, of self and
T3:2.11  to believe that you left a paradise in order to live a while in a  form that would cause you much suffering and strife, for the sole
T3:5.7  worthy of God's son, the crucifixion would have ended life in  form and returned the sons of man to the formless. Instead, the sons
T3:8.5  only choice that has been made is that of attachment to the human  form as the self. The choice that hasn't been made is the choice to

T3:10.16  your human form remains, you will be dwelling among those in human  form. While the house of illusion still exists, you will continue to

T3:13.4  now, giving you the beginnings of a vision of a life in physical  form that will not include the very temptations we are beginning to
T3:13.14 To  form your own ideas is to be creative. Forming your own ideas happens
T3:13.14  action on your ideas forms a relationship between your physical  form and your Self as your physical self represents, in form, the

T3:15.1  start. Deaths of loved ones and the births of new family members  form new configurations in a life. Nature begins anew each spring.
T3:15.16  these beliefs is the idea that these beliefs can be represented in  form. These beliefs can, with the help of the new thought system,
T3:16.16  the truth is all encompassing. Illusion is made of parts that do not  form real connections but that only seem to have the ability to build
T3:17.1  have already shown, to have chosen to express the Self in physical  form was a choice consistent with the laws of love. There was no need
T3:17.1  to be so, but there was a need for the Self to have an observable  form and to exist in relationship with others with observable forms.
T3:17.3 As soon as spirit took on  form, man began to exist in time because there became a need for a
T3:17.3  beginning and an ending to the chosen experience. Thus each self of  form is born into time and each self of form dies out of time. Both
T3:17.3  Thus each self of form is born into time and each self of  form dies out of time. Both birth and death have always existed as
T3:17.4  a thought system that was not needed before there was physical  form. The creation story of Adam and Eve, as well as many other
T3:17.5  what has been learned during the time of your experience in physical  form. Since your true Self could not learn the untrue, a new self,
T3:18.2  the Self expresses, was part of the original choice for physical  form. The word observance has rightly been linked with divine worship

T3:18.10 We also now link observance and ideas. Ideas  form in the mind. You are used to thinking that what you observe

T3:21.12  most materialistic among you rarely count what you have acquired in  form as part of your identity. What you have acquired that is not of
T3:21.12  form as part of your identity. What you have acquired that is not of  form, you have, however, added to the few ideas that you hold
T3:21.17  being called to accept your true identity even while you retain the  form of your personal self. As your true identity is that of a Self
T3:21.18  things about your personal self must be accepted as aspects of your  form and cease to be accepted as aspects of your identity. This will

T3:22.1  question in your mind and heart. While you may be beginning to  form ideas of what it means to live by the truth, these ideas may not
T3:22.17  sight of your true Self is to call your true Self into observable  form. Calling the true Self forth into observable form is the end of
T3:22.17  into observable form. Calling the true Self forth into observable  form is the end of the old and the beginning of the new.
T4:3.2  Observation is the means of seeing this binding pattern in physical  form.
T4:3.4  experience was the expression of the Self of love in observable  form. This original intent or cause formed the true nature of the
T4:3.11  is the natural means of sharing what is known in physical  form.
T4:3.12 The physical  form is not the natural or original form of the created. Vision is
T4:3.12 The physical form is not the natural or original  form of the created. Vision is the means by which the original nature
T4:3.12  the original nature of the created can newly be seen in physical  form. Once the original nature of the created becomes observable in
T4:3.12  the original nature of the created becomes observable in physical  form, physical form will surpass what it once was and become the new
T4:3.12  nature of the created becomes observable in physical form, physical  form will surpass what it once was and become the new nature of the
T4:3.12  nature of your being cannot become a being the nature of which is  form if you so choose it to be. There is a reason why the original
T4:3.12  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 house the
T4:3.12  nature of your being cannot exist in a form unnatural to love. A  form whose nature is fear cannot house the creation of love.
T4:3.13  beginning of time to be done with the separated state of a being of  form, and at the same time to hang on to life; not realizing that
T4:3.13  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 that what
T4:3.13  realizing that what lives does not have to die. That the nature of  form can change. That the nature of matter is one of change. That the
T4:3.13  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 unity and
T4:3.14 The idea of everlasting life in  form has seemed a curse to some, a miracle to others. Death comes as
T4:3.14  is but your choice. Your attachment to life has kept you alive in  form. Your attachment to death has kept your form subject to the
T4:3.14  has kept you alive in form. Your attachment to death has kept your  form subject to the cycle of decay and rebirth. There is another
T4:4.2 The pattern of life-everlasting is one of changing  form. It is one that is revealed on Earth by birth and death, decay
T4:4.5 This is one of the reasons that I came in the  form of the “son of God.” In the time in which I lived, the idea of
T4:4.8 Changing  form is part of the pattern of life-everlasting. The change in the
T4:4.8  form is part of the pattern of life-everlasting. The change in the  form you now occupy, the change I have spoken of as that of elevation
T4:4.12  you to everlasting consciousness even while you still abide in  form. To be cognizant or aware of everlasting consciousness while you
T4:4.12  or aware of everlasting consciousness while you still abide in  form is to be fully aware that you have life everlasting.
T4:4.14  to unity through death. Once the return to unity has occurred in  form, the decision to continue in form or to not continue in form
T4:4.14  return to unity has occurred in form, the decision to continue in  form or to not continue in form will be yours.
T4:4.14  in form, the decision to continue in form or to not continue in  form will be yours.
T4:4.15  divine and thus eternal. If you can abide in unity while in human  form, you will have no cause, save your own choice, to leave human
T4:4.15  form, you will have no cause, save your own choice, to leave human  form. To abide in unity is to abide in your natural state, a state of
T4:4.16  are mortal is to believe that you must die to the personal self of  form in order to be reborn as a true Self. This is an old way of
T4:4.18  will death serve when your true Self has joined with your physical  form? You will see it simply as the transformation it has always
T4:4.18  transformation from singular consciousness to Christ-consciousness.  Form has been but a representation of singular consciousness. As form
T4:4.18  Form has been but a representation of singular consciousness. As  form becomes a representation of Christ-consciousness, it will take
T4:4.18  my life was the example life. To sustain Christ-consciousness in  form is creation of the new. My one example life could not sustain
T4:4.18  This union will take you beyond the goal of expressing your Self in  form because this goal but reflected the desire for a temporary
T4:5.1 Life-everlasting in  form is not your only choice. As many of you believed that I was the
T4:5.2  God's expression, God's melody. You, and all that exist with you,  form the orchestra and chorus of creation. You might think of your
T4:5.3  The one body is one energy given many expressions in  form. The same life-force courses through all that exists in matter
T4:5.3  The same life-force courses through all that exists in matter in the  form of this energy. Awareness of this one Source of energy, and thus
T4:5.4 In order 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,
T4:5.4  to dematerialize and rematerialize in an inexhaustible variety of  form. But form does not contain It and is not required for Its
T4:5.4  and rematerialize in an inexhaustible variety of form. But  form does not contain It and is not required for Its existence or
T4:5.4  It and is not required for Its existence or expression. How could  form contain God? How could form contain the Energy of Creation?
T4:5.4  Its existence or expression. How could form contain God? How could  form contain the Energy of Creation?
T4:5.5 Your  form does not contain your heart, or the energy of creation, or God.
T4:5.5  does not contain your heart, or the energy of creation, or God. Your  form is but an extension of this energy, a representation of it. You
T4:5.5  and the waters of the ocean that exists in you. This energy is the  form and content of the embrace. It is within you and It surrounds
T4:5.11  make this 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
T4:5.11  automatic to you in human form or even upon the death of your human  form. When you die, you do not die to who you are or who you think
T4:5.11  of death you are assisted in ways not formerly possible to you in  form, to make the choice to be who you are. You are shown in ways
T4:6.3  unites us all will but continue life as it has been but in different  form. The realization of unity is the binding realization that will
T4:8.1  realize that it was not some separate “you” or some species without  form who at some point in time chose to express love in physical
T4:8.1  form who at some point in time chose to express love in physical  form, and so began this experience of human life. You are now
T4:8.5 Creation in  form had a starting point. This is the nature of everything that
T4:8.5  had a starting point. This is the nature of everything that lives in  form. It has a starting point from which it grows into its time of
T4:8.7  without any need for you to “do” anything, and then becoming a  form where expressing yourself depended upon what you could “do” with
T4:8.9  come into the time of fullness of a being able to express itself in  form, never realizing that this just delayed the learning that had to
T4:8.12  creation. Your rebellion against the constraints of your nature in  form thus became part of the pattern of creation because it was the
T4:8.13  God ever have had for wanting to express the Love that is Himself in  form, if it were not for the expansion and enrichment it would add to
T4:10.11  to fulfill the desired experience of expressing the Self of love in  form. No longer learning is the revelation that the time of
T4:10.11  accomplishment is upon you and the expression of the Self of love in  form is what you are now ready to do. Learning was what was necessary
T4:10.12 Expression of the Self of love in  form is not something that can be learned. It is something that can
T4:12.22  There has never been a sustained Christ-consciousness in  form. The Christ-consciousness that has always existed, a
T4:12.22  not a learned state, as was the singular consciousness of the human  form. It is your innate consciousness, a consciousness far too vast
T4:12.31 This is a prelude to but one  form of these dialogues. Sharing in unity is automatic. It is the
T4:12.32  of the personal self and the living of Christ-consciousness in  form are yet to be revealed and shared. This is the time that is
T4:12.33 This time is before us. Because you are a being still existing in  form, you still exist in the realm of time and space. Yet time and
T4:12.35  one body, one mind, one heart. Because it is the new future of a new  form joined in unity and relationship, the only guarantees that are
D:1.2  Self you are and the Self you hope to represent with your physical  form. I come to you today not as a personal self who is “other” than
D:1.3  as it did before. You do not “see” the new, the new Self of elevated  form or the true Self of divine union. You “see” the separated self
D:1.11  The body of Christ becomes real through this indwelling of Christ in  form.
D:1.12  release of the old and the acceptance of the new. This occurs in one  form or another in the sacraments you have known as Baptism,
D:1.13  heart and allow your true identity to be what is, even within your  form. You are in grace and union with the Source and Cause of unity.
D:2.15  now for the integration of your true identity into the self of  form, or the elevation of the personal self, new patterns are needed.
D:2.22  remaining question; that of how to sustain Christ-consciousness in  form.
D:3.1  that will allow for the sustainability of Christ-consciousness in  form.
D:3.8  the art of thought begun to integrate them into the elevated Self of  form. These are really not new ideas, however, but rather ideas of
D:3.8  but rather ideas of who you truly are birthed within the self of  form so that the Self and the elevated Self of form are able to work
D:3.8  within the self of form so that the Self and the elevated Self of  form are able to work with ideas birthed from the same source.
D:3.11  not senseless, however, when that shared consciousness is occupying  form.
D:3.12  and receiving is an idea, as are all ideas, that exists apart from  form. Giving and receiving are thus one within the shared
D:3.12  however, requires that this giving and receiving as one be shared in  form. Yet the elevated form, which now represents the shared
D:3.12  this giving and receiving as one be shared in form. Yet the elevated  form, which now represents the shared consciousness of the Self, is
D:3.12  and receiving as one is now the nature of the elevated Self of  form, and what we work toward through this dialogue is your full
D:3.13  Acceptance is easily achieved through willingness. Full awareness in  form of what has previously been hidden by the mists of illusion is
D:3.14 Giving and receiving as one has become one in  form as well as one in idea. What this means, simply stated once
D:3.15 What might this mean to the elevated Self of  form? Using this dialogue as an example will serve to explain. This
D:3.15  being shared. So too is it with you. You, as the elevated Self of  form, are a continual representation of what is continuously being
D:3.16  of the separated self, would not sustain Christ-consciousness in  form.
D:3.18  to convey any division between the Self and the elevated Self of  form, but to demonstrate that there is a difference in form between
D:3.18  Self of form, but to demonstrate that there is a difference in  form between the Self and the elevated Self of form. The Self was and
D:3.18  is a difference in form between the Self and the elevated Self of  form. The Self was and will always remain more than the body. The
D:3.19  difference that exists between the Self and the elevated Self of  form that makes of us creators of the new, because the elevated Self
D:3.19  that makes of us creators of the new, because the elevated Self of  form is new. The Self is eternal. Your Self of elevated form is newly
D:3.19  Self of form is new. The Self is eternal. Your Self of elevated  form is newly birthed, just as I was once newly birthed even though
D:3.19  things we will be seeing as we proceed is the difference between  form and content and the difference in the way separate forms express
D:3.21  concept of giving and receiving, and that for the elevated Self of  form it is simply a shared quality of oneness. It is not in need of
D:4.2  above the level of the organism as you become aware of unity of  form.
D:4.6  as are the actual prison systems that developed when shape and  form was given to what you fear and what you believe will protect you.
D:4.12 Divine patterns are the patterns that made your existence in  form possible as well as the patterns that have made your return to
D:5.6 When two bodies join and joy results from this joining, this is  form mimicking content—form representing what “is.” The form was
D:5.6  and joy results from this joining, this is form mimicking content— form representing what “is.” The form was created in order to show—
D:5.6  this is form mimicking content—form representing what “is.” The  form was created in order to show—to teach—that joining is the
D:5.11  will be what is, in its representation. Simply put, this means that  form will never be all that you are, but will return to being as it
D:5.15  of the Self as God created the Self—to the living of this Self in  form. This is an acceptance that recognizes that while the Self that
D:5.15  that while the Self that God created is eternal and the self of  form as ancient as the sea and stars, the elevated Self of form is
D:5.15  self of form as ancient as the sea and stars, the elevated Self of  form is new and will create a new world.
D:5.19  being what you represent in truth. We discuss the elevation of  form. And what we have discussed thus far is the acceptance of form
D:5.19  of form. And what we have discussed thus far is the acceptance of  form as what it is. This is the new reality you have desired. To live
D:5.19  This is the new reality you have desired. To live as who you are in  form. To not wait for death's release but to find release while still
D:5.19  wait for death's release but to find release while still living in  form. Thus we begin with the true content of the form you occupy. We
D:5.19  still living in form. Thus we begin with the true content of the  form you occupy. We return the form you occupy to its natural state.
D:5.19  we begin with the true content of the form you occupy. We return the  form you occupy to its natural state. Only then can we proceed to
D:5.21  it is going to be possible to live as your new Self while still in  form, while still in a form that seems inconsistent with your being,
D:5.21  to live as your new Self while still in form, while still in a  form that seems inconsistent with your being, while still in a form
D:5.21  in a form that seems inconsistent with your being, while still in a  form that exists within a form, within a world that seems
D:5.21  with your being, while still in a form that exists within a  form, within a world that seems inconsistent with your being. You
D:6.2  stated and stated again. But as we enter this new time of elevated  form, these same ideas—ideas that many of you attached to form
D:6.2  elevated form, these same ideas—ideas that many of you attached to  form rather than to your perception of form—must be rejected.
D:6.2  that many of you attached to form rather than to your perception of  form—must be rejected.
D:6.4  given your choice to return to who you truly are while still in  form, continues, while the ego, of course, does not. Your belief in
D:6.4  identify more intimately with the Self you truly are, the self of  form is likely to grow more and more foreign to you and less and less
D:6.5  about the end of the time of learning. But now your body—your  form—must be seen in a new way. It is thus with new ideas about the
D:6.5  will begin the final thought reversal that will allow you to live in  form as who you truly are.
D:6.6  you see among the living, is, in fact, living. It exists as living  form. And so we begin with a distinction between what exists as
D:6.6  And so we begin with a distinction between what exists as living  form, and what exists as inanimate or non-living form. While you
D:6.6  exists as living form, and what exists as inanimate or non-living  form. While you might think this is an easily drawn distinction—and
D:6.6  as you have previously seen it, for everything that exists in  form is of the same Source. Even those things you have made you have
D:6.6  truly real, or the energy of creation, in everything that exists in  form.
D:6.22  It is what it is in terms of flesh and bone, and it is also the  form that is now serving to represent the truth of who you are. How
D:6.25  extended life span came extended reasons for fear, and a physical  form that you came to believe needed greater and greater resources to
D:6.26  you may remember that change occurs in time. Outside of time and  form your Self has always existed in the perfect harmony in which it
D:6.26  it was created. Now that your Self has joined the elevated Self of  form, you exist together both in time and outside of time. Remember,
D:6.26  both in time and outside of time. Remember, the elevated Self of  form will never be all that you are. This does not imply however,
D:6.26  there are portions of your Self missing from this new experience in  form you now enter into, but that the elevated Self of form is now
D:6.26  experience in form you now enter into, but that the elevated Self of  form is now able to join with the Self in the unity of shared
D:6.26  the unity of shared consciousness. You are whole once again and your  form will merely represent one aspect of your wholeness in the field
D:6.27 The self of  form, as form, could never truly experience the All of Everything
D:6.27 The self of form, as  form, could never truly experience the All of Everything that is the
D:6.27  in unity, the All of Everything. So these two states, the state of  form and the state of unity, are both in existence right now. In the
D:6.27  of unity, your true Self is fully aware of the elevated Self of  form and is fully participating in its experiences and feelings. The
D:6.27  participating in its experiences and feelings. The elevated Self of  form, however, being a form that still exists in time, must realize
D:6.27  and feelings. The elevated Self of form, however, being a  form that still exists in time, must realize the consciousness of the
D:6.27  the true Self in time. What this means is that the elevated Self of  form may still need “time” to come to know the changes that only
D:6.28  Form and time go together. Yet you have been told time is a
D:7.1  consciousness of unity you couldn't know what the experience of  form would be like without entering into it, you cannot know the
D:7.1  of unity without entering into it. To “enter” into the experience of  form is something you can picture in your mind, and that you have
D:7.1  you have language to represent, because you are aware of the self of  form. To “enter” into the experience of unity is something more
D:7.3  that collapse time. This integration of levels is the integration of  form and unity. When Christ-consciousness is sustained, time will
D:7.4 Experiences of  form take place in time because experience, too, was designed for
D:7.6 Action is the bridge between  form and the formless because action is the expression of the self in
D:7.6  and the formless because action is the expression of the self in  form. “Right” action comes from the unity in which doing and being
D:7.6  is being all you are. Being all you are is what the elevated Self of  form represents.
D:7.7  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 That you are living  form does not require you to be defined by particularity. You can
D:7.8  is simply the nature of one aspect of what you are. The nature of  form is that it exists as matter, it occupies space and is
D:7.8  to the senses. You have previously seen this one aspect of  form as separating it from mind, heart, and spirit—those aspects
D:7.12  what you do not yet know about how to live as the elevated Self of  form.
D:7.16  you have been called to observe what is, what you are observing in  form are the representations of what is in time. Your envisioning too
D:7.17  desire, like observation and vision, is still related to the self of  form. It is a step toward full acceptance and awareness of who you
D:7.17  you are now and what this means as you become the elevated Self of  form.
D:7.18  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 —you have accepted existence as a new Self, the Self of elevated  form. You just do not yet understand what this means.
D:7.20  creation, rather than only with the time-bound field of creation of  form. As your awareness grows, you will begin to expand and express
D:7.20  to expand and express in new ways. Those ways thus now include the  form of your body without being limited to creation of, and in, form.
D:7.20  the form of your body without being limited to creation of, and in,  form. The body has thus joined creation in a non-time-bound way.
D:7.25  in time and proceed to an awareness of how the elevated Self of  form can replace the laws of evolution in time with the laws of
D:8.3  of you containing a natural ability or talent that existed in some  form prior to the time of learning. We concentrate on this idea
D:9.13 This is how you must now come to see your  form; it is that through which what already exists, what is already
D:9.13  comes or passes through by means of the expression of your  form and the interaction of your form with all you are in
D:9.13  by means of the expression of your form and the interaction of your  form with all you are in relationship with.
D:9.14  exist were able to pass through you in order to gain expression in  form; then you are beginning to see, on a small scale, the action
D:10.1  in the wider circle of unity is timeless. What comes to you in the  form of natural abilities or talents, as ideas, as imagination, as
D:10.3  of unity rather than the self of separation, the Self of elevated  form rather than the personal self.
D:10.4  the realm of time and space and involves the work and time of your  form in your form's separate reality, is not of union but of the
D:10.5  what is and the expression of what is by the elevated Self of  form, that the new is created. What is becomes new by becoming
D:10.5  that the new is created. What is becomes new by becoming sharable in  form—or in other words, what is continues to become through the
D:10.5  becomes the goal and the accomplishment of the elevated Self of  form, the means through which the Self of union is known even in the
D:10.6 The goal and relationship of the elevated Self of  form is thus timeless, for it draws from the realm of unity and
D:11.9  we have been having about the body and the elevation of the self of  form? How might this relate to your desire to make a contribution and
D:11.14 In other words, the elevated Self of  form does not remain contained within the dot of the body but draws
D:11.15  the contribution, the unique contribution of each elevated Self of  form? The contribution becomes a contribution from the well of
D:11.15  its expression, its unique expression, through the elevated Self of  form. Why would you retain your desire to make an individual
D:11.18  the expression, the right-minded action of the elevated Self of  form, arises. Unity is the Source of these words. So is it said. So
D:12.4  While you think these words come to you through the written  form of this book, by means of your eyes and the decoding mechanism
D:12.8  what it is they have to say. You “hear” their thoughts through the  form of the spoken word. They do not then become “your” thoughts, but
D:12.12  Christ consciousness and live in the world as the elevated Self of  form.
D:13.1  especially as what you know grows beyond the realm of mind and body,  form and time.
D:13.3  be coming to know is already known to you, it will still come in the  form of a surprising discovery, a joyous discovery of the previously
D:13.5  You will realize that you know something you did not know before in  form, that it is important, monumental even; but you will be unable
D:13.11  you will, by living according to what you know to be the truth,  form the very relationships and union that will allow the truth to be
D:14.4  participate in the discovery that lies beyond the body and mind,  form and time. You will need to put into practice the suspension of
D:14.12 Becoming is all about a movement into  form or manifestation. You already are manifest in form, and so the
D:14.12  a movement into form or manifestation. You already are manifest in  form, and so the idea of becoming that has been with humankind
D:14.12  forms are complete in the physical sense of sustaining life. Your  form was birthed and you have celebrated many birth “days” since your
D:14.13  comes of unity and that extends and expresses itself through your  form, thus elevating the self of form. It is awareness, acceptance,
D:14.13  and expresses itself through your form, thus elevating the self of  form. It is awareness, acceptance, and discovery of what is beyond
D:14.13  form. It is awareness, acceptance, and discovery of what is beyond  form that allows the beginning of the transformation of what is
D:14.13  that allows the beginning of the transformation of what is beyond  form into expression in form. Awareness, acceptance, and discovery
D:14.13  of the transformation of what is beyond form into expression in  form. Awareness, acceptance, and discovery are, in short, what allow
D:14.13  form. Awareness, acceptance, and discovery are, in short, what allow  form to become the more it has so long been seeking to become.
D:14.15 This reality begins with awareness of what is beyond body and mind,  form and time. It proceeds to this awareness being accepted, adopted
D:14.15  we have spoken of, to the act of becoming the elevated Self of  form. You are thus entering the time of becoming, the time of
D:14.17 This wholeness of being is what lies beyond body and mind,  form and time. Becoming the elevated Self of form is becoming whole,
D:14.17  beyond body and mind, form and time. Becoming the elevated Self of  form is becoming whole, and will be the way in which source and cause
D:14.17  will be the way in which source and cause transform body and mind,  form and time.
D:15.3 Life and the movement of being into  form is what occurred when God “spoke” and the Word came into being.
D:15.9  made by many. What were the earth and water if they were not  form?
D:15.10 They were barren  form. Form unable to create or bear fruit. Form was simply barren
D:15.10 They were barren form.  Form unable to create or bear fruit. Form was simply barren form
D:15.10 They were barren form. Form unable to create or bear fruit.  Form was simply barren form before movement swept across it and
D:15.10  form. Form unable to create or bear fruit. Form was simply barren  form before movement swept across it and animated it with the
D:15.10  to the forms of the not yet elevated? What if the existence of  form was seen to predate the animation of that form with life and
D:15.10  if the existence of form was seen to predate the animation of that  form with life and spirit? Would this not be consistent with what we
D:15.10  this not even be consistent with spirit existing in every living  form from the beginning of time until the end of time?
D:15.11  begins and ends. Time is what began when life took on existence in  form and space. It is temporal rather than eternal. Alongside it, in
D:15.11  eternal life, not temporal life. There are no degrees of life. One  form is not more alive than another. All that lives contains the
D:15.13  when it is allowed pass-through, so too can spirit endlessly empower  form when it is allowed pass-through.
D:16.1  of wholeness that will be expressed in the elevated Self of  form.
D:16.2  or expression of that identity into the creation of wholeness in  form.
D:16.3  the perceived condition of lack. It is the belief that what animated  form with life did not remain. The belief that in the passing
D:16.3  The belief that in the passing through, a relationship did not  form. But as can be easily seen, the earth is no longer a formless

D:16.9  from Creation, you cannot. But you can, while existing in time and  form, choose to stand apart from movement, being, and expression. You

D:16.9  are being because you are being something. You are alive. You have  form. You think and feel. You have even been told that you would
D:16.11  Becoming is movement. Movement is given and becomes movement in  form. Being is given and becomes being in form. Expression is given

D:16.13  new you can create a new world. The new you is the elevated Self of  form who you are in the process of becoming. This time of becoming is
D:16.13  unity, and your sustainability of Christ-consciousness or unity, in  form. In your time of directly experiencing the movement, being, and

D:Day1.29  about the second coming of Christ and the elevation of the Self of  form.
D:Day2.1  for the final merging of the two into one Self, the elevated Self of  form.
D:Day2.21 You have accounts of my actions that begin with the appearance of my  form in the world, but that mainly occur during my time of maturity.
D:Day3.3 In the area of the body came another  form of learning about which you saw yourself as having little
D:Day3.42  place of unity is a place that does not interact with the place of  form. It is interacting with the world of form through you.
D:Day3.42  interact with the place of form. It is interacting with the world of  form through you.
D:Day3.44  state. What you are being asked to do here, is to open the self of  form to the place of unity, thus allowing this divine flow of union
D:Day3.44  thus allowing this divine flow of union into the elevated Self of  form.
D:Day3.47  believe the truth of the situation to be the reality of physical  form and of what you have or have not within the confines of that
D:Day3.47  form and of what you have or have not within the confines of that  form. This would be like still seeing the mind as the only source of
D:Day3.54  this is true. A great idea or great talent that is not brought into  form, that is not expressed, that is not shared, is no greater than a
D:Day3.54  recognized, acknowledged and accepted, before it can be brought into  form, expressed, and shared. What good would it do you to say “if I
D:Day3.60  resurrection you await. You prevent the elevation of the self of  form.
D:Day4.33  however, have applied a different kind of focus upon breathing as a  form of meditation. In doing so, they let the natural serve the
D:Day4.38  brothers and sisters, love of the natural world, of the world of  form that is, love of the idea of the new world that can be, all of
D:Day4.40  up to the portal of access to unity? Do you turn and look back at  form and matter? Or do you turn and look up where no form exists? Do
D:Day4.40  look 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
D:Day4.40  choices? From where else could you so clearly see the choice between  form and the formless?
D:Day4.41 But what, you might ask, of the elevated Self of  form? Why is this suddenly a choice between one or the other? It is
D:Day4.42  think of yourself in this elevated place. You are still the self of  form despite the truth that you are literally with me in a place of
D:Day4.42  of high elevation. Is this what you choose to remain? A self of  form elevated by circumstance? A self of form on a high mountain? Or
D:Day4.42  choose to remain? A self of form elevated by circumstance? A self of  form on a high mountain? Or do you wish to carry this elevation back
D:Day4.42  back with you when you return? Do you wish to return the self of  form who once visited an altered state, this state of high elevation?
D:Day4.43 Or do you wish to go back transformed into the elevated Self of  form? Do you want to know this place of access and carry it within
D:Day4.51  You may have thought separation was the cause, but separation into  form, had it occurred within the realization of continuing
D:Day5.4 As we said yesterday, our  form of meditation, a meditation that is not a tool but a function of
D:Day5.4  feels natural to you. We give access a focal point in the realm of  form.
D:Day5.5  connection that arises from the earth and as if it is just below the  form of the physical body. Some could feel it in their hands and
D:Day5.21  to the world. This is the relationship you have with unity while in  form—a relationship of intersection and pass-through.
D:Day5.22  access to what you are given. We are speaking here of letting your  form serve union and union serve your form. This service is
D:Day5.22  speaking here of letting your form serve union and union serve your  form. This service is effortless for it is the way of creation.
D:Day6.1  unity, and your sustainability of Christ-consciousness, or unity, in  form. As was said earlier: To realize the state of becoming is to
D:Day6.1  the time of learning and the time of being the elevated Self of  form. This is what our time on this holy mountain is largely
D:Day6.16  know it. We are, after all, speaking of the elevation of the self of  form. This elevation must occur in life, in your life as it is,
D:Day7.5  your progress toward full awareness and the elevation of the self of  form, but as in the discussion of abundance, you may still feel
D:Day7.5  as in the discussion of abundance, you may still feel unsupported in  form. Realize now, that this makes no sense when our goal is the
D:Day7.5  now, that this makes no sense when our goal is the elevation of  form. If for no other reason, begin to accept this support of form
D:Day7.5  of form. If for no other reason, begin to accept this support of  form because it makes sense. It is logical. And realize further that
D:Day7.6  rather than from fear will have a major transformative effect on  form in this time of acceptance. Regeneration is a condition of the
D:Day7.10  own little world and created its own universe. The elevated Self of  form will expand into the world and create a new universe. This
D:Day7.14  the life of the Self, and will come to sustain the elevated Self of  form in a way as natural to you as breathing.
D:Day7.17  stage following the time of acceptance in which the elevated Self of  form will be created and come into full manifestation.
D:Day8.13  intolerant only of illusion and that this intolerance will take the  form of seeing only the truth rather than attempting to combat
D:Day8.17  are and be able to allow the Self of unity to merge with the self of  form, thus elevating the self of form. You will also, only in this
D:Day8.17  of unity to merge with the self of form, thus elevating the self of  form. You will also, only in this way, come to true expression of the
D:Day8.17  only in this way, come to true expression of the elevated Self of  form. Access and expression are both conditions of the present.
D:Day8.23  always that we work now to unite the Self of union with the self of  form. The self of form cannot be denied now. This is a continuation
D:Day8.23  now to unite the Self of union with the self of form. The self of  form cannot be denied now. This is a continuation of the reversal of
D:Day8.25 Non-acceptance in any  form is separating.
D:Day9.5  must precede true certainty in this time of elevation of the self of  form. The certainty that arises from unity is different from this
D:Day9.5  arises from unity is different from this confidence in the self of  form and they must be realized together for the elevation of the self
D:Day9.5  and they must be realized together for the elevation of the self of  form to take place. What good will be the certainty of unity if the
D:Day9.5  take place. What good will be the certainty of unity if the self of  form has no confidence in its ability to express it? Expression of
D:Day9.5  Expression of the certainty of unity is what the elevated Self of  form is all about. Certainty of mind and heart has been realized by
D:Day9.5  heart has been realized by many. The expression of that certainty in  form has not.
D:Day9.10  The image of the ideal self you hold in your mind, no matter what  form it takes, is still an image, and must now be done without if you
D:Day9.11  An ideal image is an idol. It is symbolic rather than real. It has  form only within your mind and has no substance. To work toward, or
D:Day9.25  release the beauty of expression in all its forms. You have a given  form that is perfect for your expression of the beauty and truth of
D:Day9.27  the beauty and truth of who you are. You came into the world of  form incapable of not expressing the beauty and truth of who you are.
D:Day9.33  Trust in your own abilities—the abilities of the self of  form joined with the Self of union—will be your confidence. Only
D:Day10.1  to harness the cause and effect power of love. It is a quality of  form as well as a quality of union. Form is the ultimate expression
D:Day10.1  of love. It is a quality of form as well as a quality of union.  Form is the ultimate expression of the power of creation. The power
D:Day10.1  of the power of creation. The power of creation, harnessed by  form in the service of form is the next step in the expansion of the
D:Day10.1  creation. The power of creation, harnessed by form in the service of  form is the next step in the expansion of the power of creation. It
D:Day10.1  of the power of creation. It is the power of the elevated Self of  form.
D:Day10.2  of union must be combined with the confidence of the self of  form? Certainty is knowing that this power exists. Confidence is the
D:Day10.2  power is to rely on the connection that exists between the self of  form and the Self of union and to, through this reliance, tie the two
D:Day10.6  seems to come from a place “other than” or beyond the self of  form, you will instinctively have greater trust in it. You will
D:Day10.6  believe it comes from a place “other than” or beyond the self of  form because it comes in the form of certainty.
D:Day10.6  “other than” or beyond the self of form because it comes in the  form of certainty.
D:Day10.12 Feelings come from the innate knowing of the self of  form—in short, from the body. The body is the “given” form and
D:Day10.12  the self of form—in short, from the body. The body is the “given”  form and while it was the perfect vehicle for learning in the time of
D:Day10.12  into the perfect vehicle for the realization of the elevated Self of  form. During this transformation, we work with what is as well as
D:Day10.12  you to become aware of and accept than the confidence in the self of  form that must accompany it. In developing the confidence of the self
D:Day10.12  that must accompany it. In developing the confidence of the self of  form, we work with what has been in a new way, and as you all know
D:Day10.15  feel from unity and the confidence you need to feel in the self of  form. Reflect further on your idea of certainty coming from a place
D:Day10.19  the consciousness that we truly share. I came to you in the  form of the consciousness of the man I once was because you were,
D:Day10.19  of the individual and the universal, is what the elevated Self of  form must encompass.
D:Day10.20  but to accept that the man Jesus was simply a representation, in  form, of Christ-consciousness. I do, however, ask you to give up your
D:Day10.20  that this is the voice that will now animate the elevated Self of  form, or in other words, you.
D:Day10.26  would have no place within the ideal self or the elevated Self of  form.
D:Day10.27  an idea as I can give you of how to imagine the elevated Self of  form, as not much different than you are now, but peaceful and free
D:Day10.28  it? And do you not, in all honesty, think that even in whatever  form or lack of form they now occupy, they do not like it, even now,
D:Day10.28  you not, in all honesty, think that even in whatever form or lack of  form they now occupy, they do not like it, even now, even beyond the
D:Day11.2  which we exist. This is the great paradox that unites the world of  form and the world of spirit, the world of separation with the world
D:Day11.2  means to see past the world of illusion to the truth of the union of  form and spirit, separate selves and the One Self.
D:Day11.3 The elevation of the self of  form is nothing but the recognition of the One Self within the Self.
D:Day11.5  or the observed. This is as true of God as it is of the self of  form. God is the oneness and the separation. Life is the
D:Day11.7  Because it is that which differentiates, it is that which has taken  form as well as that from which form arose. It is the expression of
D:Day11.7  it is that which has taken form as well as that from which  form arose. It is the expression of oneness in relationship with Its
D:Day11.8 Life is the connecting tissue of the web of  form with the divine All. Life is consciousness. Christ-consciousness
D:Day12.2 Imagine the air around you being visible and your  form an invisible space within the visible surroundings. This is the
D:Day12.2  of Christ-consciousness. Consciousness may seem to be embodied by  form but the reverse is true and has always been true. The body is
D:Day12.3 The merging of  form with Christ-consciousness is this merging of the Self with the
D:Day12.4  everything. Space is neither divided nor separated nor occupied by  form. Space is all that is. Christ-consciousness is the space of all
D:Day12.5  is now a feeling, conscious space, unhindered by any obstacles of  form.
D:Day12.6 When an obstacle of  form, be it human or material in nature, seems to present itself, all
D:Day12.6  remind yourself that space has replaced what was once your self of  form. Feel the love of the space that is you. All obstacles will
D:Day12.7 All obstacles of  form are only real in the world of form, a world that is perceived
D:Day12.7 All obstacles of form are only real in the world of  form, a world that is perceived rather than known.
D:Day12.7  than known. Christ-consciousness replaces perception with knowing,  form with space.
D:Day12.9  not been made solid by perception. A seeming obstacle of non-human  form is easily enfolded in the space of the One Self and can be moved
D:Day13.1 Once the One Self became  form and knew Its Self, it knew separate thought. The separate
D:Day13.1  thought. The separate thoughts of the one self, rather than the  form of the one self, allowed for the knowing of the self that
D:Day13.2 The “one” self of  form is the self you were born into. The one self of form comes to
D:Day13.2  “one” self of form is the self you were born into. The one self of  form comes to know the One Self through relationship with other
D:Day13.2  with other selves experiencing oneness through being selves of  form.
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 both the many and the one.
D:Day13.5  creates formidable obstacles, or in other words, obstacles of solid  form that contain no spaciousness. Solid form is actually a void, a
D:Day13.5  words, obstacles of solid form that contain no spaciousness. Solid  form is actually a void, a substance devoid of spaciousness, a form
D:Day13.5  Solid form is actually a void, a substance devoid of spaciousness, a  form that is form only. These forms are still encompassed by the
D:Day13.5  actually a void, a substance devoid of spaciousness, a form that is  form only. These forms are still encompassed by the loving space of
D:Day13.6 Imagine the spacious Self as an invisible Self, a Self whose  form is transparent. Through this transparency, the reality of the
D:Day13.6  all, is apparent. The spaciousness of love, the lovely complexity of  form, the awesome majesty of nature, all are visible within the One
D:Day13.6  Self because of the invisibility of the one boundary-less Self of  form. All of creation is present and apparent in this boundary-less
D:Day13.6  of creation is present and apparent in this boundary-less Self of  form. This Self is everything and everyone. Because it is everything
D:Day13.7  fearless and totally spacious, for fear is part of the density of  form, being a lack of love.
D:Day14.9  to all. Relationship is the invisible reality only expressed through  form.
D:Day14.12 Your acceptance of these words is a  form of acceptance of the unknown and as such a means of coming to
D:Day14.14  the means of sharing your access to unity, the manifestation, in  form, of the healed and whole and thus spacious Self.
D:Day15.4  or knowing. You do this by taking what is into your spacious  form rather than observing it as separate from you.
D:Day15.6  mass of the forms you observed. Yet it is the spirit that animates  form that is real. Informing could be understood as making the spirit
D:Day15.6  Informing could be understood as making the spirit known in the  form of physicality. It is not simply the bringing of spirit into
D:Day15.6  form of physicality. It is not simply the bringing of spirit into  form but the making known of spirit in form. What you made known
D:Day15.6  the bringing of spirit into form but the making known of spirit in  form. What you made known through judgment-free observation was but
D:Day15.7 The difference between simply bringing spirit into  form and making spirit known through form is the difference for which
D:Day15.7  simply bringing spirit into form and making spirit known through  form is the difference for which the time has come. The observation
D:Day15.8 The animation of  form with spirit is an ongoing aspect of creation. It is thus not
D:Day15.8  of the body and then cease to be. It is not about life and making  form alive but about spirit and informing spirit. It is about making
D:Day15.8  and informing spirit. It is about making spirit known through the  form of physicality.
D:Day15.10 This is the new realm of power that few in physical  form have practiced and that has never been practiced by many at one
D:Day15.16  that may have remained within them that Christ-consciousness is a  form of “group think.” Never will you feel more like an individual
D:Day15.28  now debunked your myths about your true identity being an idealized  form of the self. Now are you ready, through your ability to view
D:Day16.3 What is of  form comes and goes and is impermanent. What is of spirit, or
D:Day16.4  became physical. What is not of consciousness is of physical  form. The rejected feelings that became physical were made separate
D:Day16.4  feelings are those for which you blame yourself. Sickness is the  form of manifestation of rejected feelings. These manifestations come
D:Day16.5  These manifest in your interactions with the world, taking on  form in the actions of others, in instances where acts of nature or
D:Day17.1  as the merging of the human and the divine into observable  form. Thus there must be a difference between life-consciousness and
D:Day17.2  identity. Christ is the “I Am” of God, the expression of “I Am” in  form, the animator and the animated, the informer and the informed,
D:Day17.2  being, and expression of creation. Christ is that which anointed  form with the “I Am” of God. In many religious traditions, life is
D:Day17.5  Those like Jesus, who fully expressed Christ-consciousness in  form, did so as individuals, by not negating their being as they
D:Day17.7  coming of Christ but the first coming—the movement of being into  form. This being was fully expressed by Jesus Christ, who
D:Day17.7  This being was fully expressed by Jesus Christ, who represented, in  form, the first coming and who began the movement from maintenance to
D:Day17.8  Representation of the power of Christ-consciousness in human  form was necessary to complete the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth.
D:Day17.9  Christ-consciousness and full expression of Christ-consciousness in  form. Each did so in individual ways, ways that revealed the choices
D:Day17.10  with the world, demonstrating the myth of duality, the death of  form, the resurrection of spirit. The way of Mary represented
D:Day17.10  through relationship, demonstrating the truth of union, the birth of  form, and the ascension of the body. Both ways were necessary. Both
D:Day18.2  be essential for the birth of the new and in truth symbolizes it in  form and process. As within, so without. Mary represents the
D:Day18.4  known by, and to, the many. It is full acceptance of the Self in a  form that can be distinguished, or individuated from the rest. It is
D:Day18.6  and divine and thus accomplished the resurrection of the eternal in  form. Your virgin state, the state unaltered by the separation, has
D:Day18.10 The new visual pattern is that of spirit resurrected in  form. It is the ascension of the body, or elevation of the self of
D:Day18.10  form. It is the ascension of the body, or elevation of the self of  form. You are called to demonstrate this pattern. The choice is to
D:Day19.1  called to something, and something important, but it does not have a  form within your mind and so you see not how it can become manifest
D:Day19.14  of this way is not discovered through the passing on of knowledge in  form but through relationship. Those following the way of Mary become
D:Day19.14  knowing through relationship. This occurs through the one Self of  form.
D:Day22.5  through which your awareness of unity passes through your self of  form. It is clear, when looked at in terms of process, that there is
D:Day24.1  many Selves as well as one Self. You are a Self with many forms. The  form you occupy contains all of your potential manifestations as the
D:Day24.1  form you occupy contains all of your potential manifestations as the  form of the caterpillar contains all of its potential manifestations.
D:Day24.7  cocoon, and the butterfly have always been one and remain one. Each  form is but a different stage in the becoming of the spirit. Without
D:Day24.7  becoming of the spirit. Without release, it must die to its present  form in order to begin again. Thus spirit is always becoming, even
D:Day27.2  before believed you were capable of. This certainty is beginning to  form within you but will not come into its fullness except through
D:Day27.2  through experience. This certainty has only been able to begin to  form within you because you have agreed to this mountain top
D:Day27.6  experience. You are and always have been both human and spirit, both  form and content. Now you contain within you the ability to combine
D:Day27.10  both levels of experience, the internal and the external, the  form and the content, the human and the divine, is to elevate the
D:Day27.10  and the content, the human and the divine, is to elevate the self of  form, or, in other words, to be what you have always been: Whole.
D:Day27.15  separation and variability through experience. The elevated Self of  form will be the expression of new life lived within the constant of
D:Day27.16  of experience that has come through the separated self of  form. This is what you are beginning to do through your practice.
D:Day28.24  that we have talked about will begin to fit together. A whole will  form within your mind much as if you have been following a thread and
D:Day33.3  in truth. This is the divine marriage, the divine relationship of  form and being.
D:Day36.3 —all of them. You can look back on your life and see its  form. You could write an autobiography describing every experience
D:Day36.17 God remains God who is one in being with all, and God also is given  form, or is, in other words, differentiated. God is All in All. And
D:Day37.26  creation. To differentiate in union and relationship is to be God in  form—to give expression to “all” that exists in union and
D:Day37.29 Like heart, mind, and body is to your  form, being, union, and relationship is to God's “form.”
D:Day39.3  and be in relationship. You are an extension of I Am into  form. Through your extension, you can become who you are to me,
D:Day39.18  is a projection that you have made, a world that has the shape and  form, the character and value, the image and meaning, that you would
D:Day39.35  is creation's genesis, the unattributable given the attributes of  form.
D:Day39.38  laden being. Between the one being of love and the many beings of  form, between love's extension and form's projection.
D:Day40.5  attributes of being in relationship. You came into the world, into  form, as a being in relationship. The application of your being to
D:Day40.7 When I created, I extended my being, a being of love, into  form. Through that extension, I became I Am. I became instantly
D:Day40.8  you create, you create as my relation. You extend your being into  form. That form then becomes. It becomes who you are. Both beings and
D:Day40.8  you create as my relation. You extend your being into form. That  form then becomes. It becomes who you are. Both beings and thus both
D:Day40.10  took on attributes, as all creations do once they are extended into  form and time. This is the nature of creation. Creation is about
D:Day40.10  Creation is about giving attributes to the attributeless. Giving  form to the formless. An artist might be moved to her art by a
D:Day40.10  to express it—she knows as she begins that she but tries to bring  form to the formless. Why? Because the nature of a being of love is
D:Day40.10  of love is to extend. The nature of a being of love is to bring  form to the formless—to bring love into form.
D:Day40.10  being of love is to bring form to the formless—to bring love into  form.
D:Day40.11 Love has no attributes, no  form, no conditions, no nature. It simply is. It was said earlier
D:Day40.13  Because it is that which differentiates, it is that which has taken  form as well as that from which form arose. It is the expression of
D:Day40.13  it is that which has taken form as well as that from which  form arose. It is the expression of oneness in relationship with Its
E.17  how to just be, and this is why, in a sense, this dialogue, in this  form, must come to an end. The dialogue you will carry forward with

T3:2.4  has been built around this system. Now, along with the beliefs put  forth in “A Treatise on Unity,” you are asked to accept a new belief
T3:7.2  is not needed for the truth. Thus you can see that the beliefs put  forth in “A Treatise on Unity” are necessary only to return you to
T3:16.6  human experience. All of these temptations relate to the beliefs set  forth in “A Treatise on Unity.”
T3:22.1  take you, for surely your life must change. The very precepts put  forth within this Course, precepts that say that the internal affects
T3:22.17  really the observation of a Self beyond the personal self. To call  forth observance is to call forth the sight of your true Self. To
T3:22.17  a Self beyond the personal self. To call forth observance is to call  forth the sight of your true Self. To call forth the sight of your
T3:22.17  observance is to call forth the sight of your true Self. To call  forth the sight of your true Self is to call your true Self into
T3:22.17  to call your true Self into observable form. Calling the true Self  forth into observable form is the end of the old and the beginning of

D:1.2  you. In our union we bear the sameness of the Son of God. In going  forth with the vision of unity you become as I was during life. You
D:1.3  “see” such visions, you “see” the pattern of the personal self going  forth much as it did before. You do not “see” the new, the new Self

D:8.8  Course and the Treatises, all of what you needed to learn was put  forth. What we are now doing is discussing what was taught from the

D:10.2  of learning. Notice the inability of teaching or learning to call  forth talents, ideas, imagination, inspiration, instinct, intuition,
D:10.4  to call your own. You thus must begin to realize that the bringing  forth of the accomplishment that already exists in unity is your new
D:10.6  of unity. This is an expression of the Biblical injunction to “Go  forth and multiply.” It is about increase. To be content with
D:11.13  unity. In our union we bear the sameness of the Son of God. In going  forth with the vision of unity you become as I was during life. You
D:11.13  do not think your way through life, but instead draw your knowing  forth from the well of spirit, from the shared consciousness from
D:14.13 Again, these ideas can be likened to the ideas put  forth in “A Treatise on Unity and Its Recognition” when it was said

D:Day1.11  from another. You may think that, as long as the power is called  forth, it matters not the name by which it is called. You may think
D:Day2.8  It is the depths to which you feel you once descended that calls  forth your fear here.

D:Day3.14  too. They are what prevent you from believing that the ideas set  forth in this Course, when practiced, are capable of making a
D:Day8.22  that you are involved in a situation or relationship that has called  forth that feeling. It is in the expression of that feeling that who
D:Day32.5  of God as you think of yourself. When thinking of the ideas put  forth here, you might think of God deciding to know Himself. You

Tx:3.71  circular reasoning involved in his position would be quite apparent.  Free will must lead to freedom. Judgment always imprisons because

Tx:5.22  are choices which you must make. In the holy state, the will is  free in the sense that its creative power is unlimited, but choice
Tx:5.43  to learning. You have not made truth, but truth can still set you  free. Look as the Holy Spirit looks, and understand as He
Tx:5.49  you the foundation, so your own thoughts can make you really  free. You have carried the burden of the ideas you did not share and
Tx:5.71  changed your belief in your status. Yet your election is both  free and alterable. You do not belong in time. Your place is only
Tx:5.72  and pain for peace. My role is only to unchain your will and make it  free. Your ego cannot accept this freedom and will oppose your free

Tx:6.8  equality can be demonstrated only through joint decision. You are  free to perceive yourselves as persecuted if you choose. You might

Tx:7.84  that it can free you of conflict, lest you give the ego up and  free yourself. The ego, using its own warped version of the laws of
Tx:8.10 The ego cannot teach you anything as long as your will is  free, because you will not listen to it. It is not your will to
Tx:8.10  it. It is not your will to be imprisoned, because your will is  free. That is why the ego is the denial of free will. It is never
Tx:8.10  because your will is free. That is why the ego is the denial of  free will. It is never God who coerces you because He shares His
Tx:8.11  your own freedom and makes you afraid of your will because it is  free. The Holy Spirit opposes any imprisoning of the will of a Son
Tx:8.31  our joint will, but my will alone cannot help you. Your will is as  free as mine, and God Himself would not go against it. I cannot
Tx:8.33  This means that you have imprisoned yours and have not let it be  free. Of yourselves you can do nothing, because of yourselves you
Tx:8.33  is His Will for all His Sons. By offering freedom, you will be  free.
Tx:8.52  You who are beloved of God are wholly blessed. Learn this of me, and  free the holy will of all those who are as blessed as you are.
Tx:8.68  not allow yourselves to suffer from the results of what is not true.  Free your minds from the belief that this is possible. In its

Tx:12.48  not allowing the miracle, which could intervene between them, to  free you to be born again.
Tx:12.49  and unless you bring them with you, you will see that you are  free of them.

Tx:13.8  as yourself, you will be released to knowledge, having learned to  free yourself of Him Who knows of freedom. Unite with me under the
Tx:13.11  the future and the past, the laws of God must intervene if you would  free yourselves. Atonement stands between them like a lamp that
Tx:13.16  of your own guilt. If you would have the Holy Spirit make you  free of it, accept His offer of Atonement for all your brothers. For
Tx:13.24  one each day be born again. A minute, even less, will be enough to  free you from the past and give your mind in peace over to the
Tx:13.62  knowledge in the Kingdom. All this lies in the Holy Spirit's plan to  free you from the past and open up the way to freedom for you. For
Tx:13.64  The guiltless learner learns so easily because his thoughts are  free. Yet this entails the recognition that guilt is interference,
Tx:13.68  and cannot both be true. You are guilty or guiltless, bound or  free, happy or unhappy.
Tx:13.69  right, attesting to your happiness that comes from choosing to be  free of guilt. Everyone you offer healing to returns it. Everyone you
Tx:13.70  it, he binds himself to darkness because he did not choose to  free his brother and enter light with him. By giving power to
Tx:13.77  friend. He is the strong protector of your innocence, which sets you  free. And it is His decision to undo everything that would obscure
Tx:14.9  suffering of every kind lie in it. Who is there but wishes to be  free of pain? He may not yet have learned how to exchange his guilt
Tx:14.63  by which to recognize if what you learned is true. If you are wholly  free of fear of any kind, and if all those who meet or even think of
Tx:14.70 He Who has freed you from the past would teach you are  free of it. He would but have you accept His accomplishments as
Tx:14.70  for you. And because he did, they are yours. He has made you  free of what you made. You can deny Him, but you cannot call on Him
Tx:15.9  And the present extends forever. It is so beautiful and so clean and  free of guilt that nothing but happiness is there. No darkness is
Tx:15.10  and it is here that you are completely absolved, completely  free, and wholly without condemnation. From this holy instant
Tx:15.23  there is no form of littleness that can ever content you. You are  free to try as many as you wish, but all you will be doing is to
Tx:15.53  Holy Spirit's timelessness lies only here. For in the holy instant,  free of the past, you see that love is in you, and you have no need
Tx:15.61  that he be bound or limited in any way. In this instant, he is as  free as God would have him be. For the instant he refuses to be
Tx:15.83 The Holy Spirit is God's attempt to  free you of what He does not understand. And because of the Source of

Tx:15.91  be no interference in communication, and your thoughts will be as  free as God's. As you let the Holy Spirit teach you how to use the
Tx:16.22 You have taught freedom, but you have not learned how to be  free. We once said, “By their fruits ye shall know them, and they
Tx:16.77  receive it not, because He gave it. When He willed that His Son be  free, His Son was free. In the holy instant is His reminder that
Tx:16.77  He gave it. When He willed that His Son be free, His Son was  free. In the holy instant is His reminder that His Son will always be
Tx:17.9  remains still bound by them, and by your own forgiveness, you are  free to see. Yet what you see is only what you have made, with the
Tx:17.38  picture that is the gift. And only on this basis are you really  free to choose. Look at the pictures. Both of them. One is a tiny
Tx:17.56  of the holy instant and use them to correct all your mistakes and  free you from their results. And learning this, you will have also
Tx:17.72  you enter or will ever enter. And every situation was thus made  free of the past, which would have made it purposeless.
Tx:17.76  aside unused. And then the power of the Holy Spirit's purpose is  free to use instead. This power instantly transforms all situations
Tx:19.2  from every demand your ego would make of him. Thus do you see him  free, and in this vision does the Holy Spirit share. And since He
Tx:19.12  the eyes of faith, the Son of God is seen already forgiven,  free of all the guilt he laid upon himself. Faith sees him only now
Tx:19.16  all along with his Creator. You can enslave a body, but an idea is  free, incapable of being kept in prison or limited in any way except
Tx:19.70 Here is your choice, and it is  free. But all that lies in it will come with it, and what you think
Tx:19.74  of peace, it urges you to send out all your messages of hate and  free yourself. And to convince you this is possible, it bids the
Tx:19.85  to which the body leads you. Ask not release of it. But  free it from the merciless and unrelenting orders you laid upon it
Tx:19.104  you to give each other, and thus receive it. Whom you forgive is  free, and what you give you share. Forgive the sins your brother
Tx:19.106  of freedom that I gave the Holy Spirit for both of you. And be you  free together, as you offer to the Holy Spirit this same gift. And
Tx:19.107  Free your brother here, as I freed you. Give him the self-same gift,
Tx:20.7  and you are crucified. Offer him lilies and it is yourself you  free.
Tx:20.14  is risen from the past and has awakened to the present. Now is he  free, unlimited in his communion with all that is within him. Now are
Tx:20.14  gift has saved him from the thorns and nails, and his strong arm is  free to guide you safely through them and beyond. Walk with him now
Tx:20.15  and your friend, released from crucifixion through your vision and  free to lead you now where he would be. He will not leave you nor
Tx:20.25  not the light, do not leap up in joy the instant they are made  free. It takes a while for them to understand what freedom is. You
Tx:20.26  become impossible. You who were prisoners in separation are now made  free in Paradise. And here would I unite with you, my friends, my
Tx:20.28  and gives no power to their seeming source. Thus would He keep you  free of them. Being without illusion of what you are, the Holy Spirit
Tx:20.30  this that you would see within your savior from insanity? He is as  free from this as you are, and in the freedom that you see in him,
Tx:20.32  given, whose special function here is to release him and so to  free himself. In the world of separation, each is appointed
Tx:20.66  upon is sinless. No one who loves can judge, and what he sees is  free of condemnation. And what he sees he did not make, for it was
Tx:20.68  exchange your doubts for certainty? Would you not willingly be  free of misery and learn again of joy? Your holy relationship offers
Tx:21.2  If you see holiness and hope, you joined the Will of God to set him  free. There is no choice that lies between these two decisions. And
Tx:21.23 Be willing for an instant to leave your altars  free of what you placed upon them, and what is really there you
Tx:21.35  has your faith and your belief. But holiness would set your brother  free, removing hatred by removing fear, not as a symptom, but at its
Tx:21.36 Those who would  free their brothers from the body can have no fear. They have
Tx:21.45  time began. And it desired nothing but to join with him and to be  free again, as once it was. It has been waiting for the birth of
Tx:21.53  for you and has your freedom as the purpose given it, you must be  free to find it.
Tx:21.69  attests to it. Where could his freedom lie but in himself if he be  free already? And who could bind him but himself if he deny his
Tx:21.69  at his own mercy. And where he chooses to be merciful, there is he  free. But where he chooses to condemn instead, there is he held a
Tx:21.69  held a prisoner, waiting in chains his pardon on himself to set him  free.
Tx:22.53  the role of means and end so easily in what God loves and would have  free forever. But be you rather grateful that you can be the means
Tx:23.32  Here do the laws of sin appear to hold love captive and let sin go  free.
Tx:24.33 The slaves of specialness will yet be  free. Such is the Will of God and of His Son. Would God condemn
Tx:25.41  be when you perceive it! And how great will be your joy, when he is  free to offer you the gift of sight God gave to him for you! He has
Tx:25.42  from the pain of hell. But in the love he shows himself is God made  free to let His Will be done. In each of you, you see the picture
Tx:25.56  and place in which you think you find yourself and where you can be  free of place and time and all that you believe must limit you. The
Tx:25.56  be made by the insane, whose problem is their choices are not  free and made with reason in the light of sense.
Tx:25.70  are wholly innocent in truth. In justice, He is bound to set them  free and give them all the honor they deserve and have denied
Tx:26.40 The Son that God created is as  free as God created him. He was reborn the instant that he chose to
Tx:26.65  use of what He gave to answer all His Son's mistakes and set him  free. But it is arrogant to lay aside the power that He gave and
Tx:27.2  suffer now belongs to him, and when it rests on him are you set  free. Wish not to make yourself a living symbol of his guilt, for you
Tx:27.10  witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose being open and the mind made  free again to choose what it is for. Now is it not condemned, but
Tx:27.11  empty space, from which the goal of sin has been removed, is Heaven  free to be remembered. Here its peace can come and perfect healing
Tx:27.21  of guilt he suffers serves to prove that he is slave but they are  free. The constant pain they suffer demonstrates that they are free
Tx:27.21  are free. The constant pain they suffer demonstrates that they are  free because they hold him bound. And sickness is desired to
Tx:27.27  of you. It cannot leave mistakes in one unhealed and set the other  free. That is divided purpose which cannot be shared, and so it
Tx:27.33  and unseen. Forgiveness is not yet a power known as wholly  free of limits. Yet it sets no limits you have chosen to impose.
Tx:27.34  remains unknown but is not canceled out. And thus is God left  free to take the final step Himself. [For this you need no pictures
Tx:27.41  asks what the response should be. But no one in a conflict state is  free to ask this question, for he does not want an honest answer
Tx:27.70  two states, but one of which is clearly recognized? Who could be  free to choose between effects when only one is seen as up to him?
Tx:27.86  it is your dream. This single lesson learned will set you  free from suffering, whatever form it takes.
Tx:27.89  is recognized! When you forgive the world your guilt, you will be  free of it. Its innocence does not demand your guilt, nor does
Tx:28.27  is not done to me, but I am doing this.” And thus the mind is  free to make another choice instead. Beginning here, salvation will
Tx:28.37  be turned instead on you. Thus have they no effects. And you are  free of dreams of pain because you let him be. Unless you help him,
Tx:28.42  because you let them be. But if you took your own away would he be  free of them and of his own as well. Your dreams are witnesses to
Tx:28.48  made. And so he cannot be a part of yours, from which you both are  free. Forgiveness separates the dreamer from the evil dream and thus
Tx:29.10  you not perceive it as release from suffering to learn that you are  free? Why would you not acclaim the truth, instead of looking on it
Tx:29.12  must come wherever they are not. Why are you not rejoicing? You are  free of pain and sickness, misery and loss, and all effects of hatred
Tx:29.21  his reality. He must be savior from the dream he made, that he be  free of it. He must see someone else as not a body, one with him,
Tx:29.42  lovely is the world whose purpose is forgiveness of God's Son! How  free from fear, how filled with blessing and with happiness! And what
Tx:30.30  cannot be coercion here nor grounds for opposition that you may be  free. There is no freedom from what must occur. And if you think
Tx:30.34  be called by freedom's name. Unless you do your will, you are not  free. And would God leave His Son without what he has chosen for
Tx:30.34  to what he does not want. He joins with you in willing you be  free. And to oppose Him is to make a choice against yourself and
Tx:30.36  have you for anger in a world which merely waits your blessing to be  free? If you be prisoner, then God Himself could not be free. For
Tx:30.36  to be free? If you be prisoner, then God Himself could not be  free. For what is done to him whom God so loves is done to God
Tx:30.37  the freedom you will give when you have recognized that you are  free. But you will not forgive the world until you have forgiven Him
Tx:30.37  For it is by your will the world is given freedom. Nor can you be  free apart from Him Whose holy will you share. God turns to you to
Tx:30.54  believe an idol gives. For thus the Son of God declares that he is  free of idols. And thus is he free.
Tx:30.54  the Son of God declares that he is free of idols. And thus is he  free.
Tx:30.55  for the things you do not want. And you are asked to let yourself be  free of all the dreams of what you never were and seek no more to
Tx:30.65  let not your experiences here deceive in retrospect. They were not  free from bitter cost and joyless consequence.
Tx:30.69  their enemy. But when they joined and shared a purpose, they were  free to learn their will is one. And thus the Will of God must reach
Tx:30.94  you request a miracle instead. There is no pain from which he is not  free if you would have him be but what he is. Why should you fear to
Tx:30.94  but behold your Self in what you see. As he is healed are you made  free of guilt, for his appearance is your own to you.
Tx:31.12  your mind of anyone. Now do [you] know him not. But you are  free to learn of him and learn of him anew. Now is he born again to
Tx:31.12  the past that sentenced him to die, and you with him. Now is he  free to live, as you are free because an ancient learning passed away
Tx:31.12  him to die, and you with him. Now is he free to live, as you are  free because an ancient learning passed away and left a place for
Tx:31.15  choose between is not a choice and gives but the illusion it is  free, for it will have one outcome either way. Thus is it really not
Tx:31.30  For here are you made sin, and sin cannot abide the joyous and the  free, for they are enemies which sin must kill. In death is sin
Tx:31.59  no assumptions which would stand the light, then is the truth left  free to enter in its sanctuary, clean and free of guilt. There is no
Tx:31.59  then is the truth left free to enter in its sanctuary, clean and  free of guilt. There is no statement that the world is more afraid to
Tx:31.80 The savior's vision is as innocent of what your brother is as it is  free of any judgment made upon yourself. It sees no past in anyone at

W1:29.5 Your list of subjects should therefore be as  free of self-selection as possible. For example, a suitable list
W1:39.11 Meanwhile, you should feel  free to introduce variety into your practice periods in whatever form
W1:57.3  in which I see myself. All I need do is recognize this, and I am  free. I have deluded myself into believing it is possible to imprison
W1:57.3  this belief, which I no longer want. The Son of God must be forever  free. He is as God created him, and not what I would make of him. He
W1:57.4  must be, then, that the world is really a place where he can be set  free. I would look upon the world as it is, and see it as a place
W1:70.14  and nothing but your own thoughts can hamper your progress. You are  free from all external interference. You are in charge of your
W1:71.9  full release from all your own insane attempts and mad proposals to  free yourself. They have led to depression and anger. But God's plan
W1:73.9  it is the ego which stands powerless before your will. Your will is  free, and nothing can prevail against it. Therefore we undertake the

W1:110.2  any time or place. It is enough to heal the past and make the future  free. It is enough to let the present be accepted as it is. It is
W1:110.3  but just this one to let redemption come to light the world and  free it from the past.
W1:110.5  today's idea with gratitude. This is the truth that comes to set you  free. This is the truth that God has promised you. This is the Word
W1:110.13  this truth as often as we can. This is the Word of God that sets you  free. This is the key that opens up the gate of Heaven, and which
W1:125.2  means can save it, for God's plan is simply this: the Son of God is  free to save himself, given the Word of God to be his Guide, forever
W1:125.2  to lead him surely to his Father's house by his own will, forever  free as God's. He is not led by force, but only love. He is not

W1:127.10  thought was made in hate to be love's enemy. Now are they all made  free along with us. Now are they all our brothers in God's Love.
W1:128.5  go all thought of values we have given to the world. We leave it  free of purposes we gave its aspects and its phases and its dreams.

W1:128.6  will be grateful to be free a while. It knows where it belongs. But  free its wings, and it will fly in sureness and in joy to join its
W1:131.4  search unless you give it power to do so. Otherwise, you still are  free to choose a goal that lies beyond the world and every worldly
W1:132.2 Yet is salvation easily achieved, for anyone is  free to change his mind, and all his thoughts change with it. Now the
W1:132.3 You  free the past from what you thought before. You free the future from
W1:132.3 You free the past from what you thought before. You  free the future from all ancient thoughts of seeking what you do not
W1:132.3  now remains the only time. Here in the present is the world set  free. For as you let the past be lifted and release the future from
W1:132.11  of saying that to know your Self is the salvation of the world? To  free the world from every kind of pain is but to change your mind

W1:132.15 Today our purpose is to  free the world from all the idle thoughts we ever held about it and
W1:132.15  the world this day from every one of our illusions that we may be  free.
W1:134.9 Now are you  free to follow in the way your true forgiveness opens up to you. For

W1:136.15  a quarter of an hour twice to ask the truth to come to us and set us  free.
W1:137.8  is weakness overcome. And minds which were walled off within a body  free to join with other minds, to be forever strong.

W1:166.7  catch a glimpse of truth and be released from self-deception and set  free.
W1:170.14  them we find our peace. Holy are we because Your holiness has set us  free. And we give thanks. Amen.
W1:R5.12  seemed to claim the world. And we remind the world that it is  free of all illusions every time we say,

W1:190.8  in your holy mind. Pain is the ransom you have gladly paid not to be  free. In pain is God denied the Son He loves. In pain does fear
W1:190.11  Heaven. Let our gratitude unto our Teacher fill our hearts as we are  free to choose our joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin,
W1:191.4  one thing is folly to believe. In this one thought is everything set  free. In this one truth are all illusions gone. In this one fact is
W1:191.5  And from this place of safety and escape, you will return and set it  free. For he who can accept his true Identity is truly saved. And his

W1:191.6  use it cruelly and then perceive this savage need in it. You set it  free of your imprisonment. You will not see a devastating image of
W1:191.10  as dark and sinful when God's Son has come again at last to set it  free?
W1:191.13 They must await your own release. They stay in chains till you are  free. They cannot see the mercy of the world until you find it for

W1:192.8  Who could be set free while he imprisons anyone? A jailer is not  free, for he is bound together with his prisoner. He must be sure
W1:192.9  hold no one prisoner. Release instead of bind, for thus are you made  free. The way is simple. Every time you feel a stab of anger, realize
W1:192.9  And it will fall or be averted as you choose to be condemned or  free. Thus does each one who seems to tempt you to be angry represent
W1:193.13  has willed that laughter should replace each one and that His Son be  free again.

W1:194.5  world. Now is he free, and all his glory shines upon a world made  free with him to share his holiness.
W1:194.7  his perception may be faulty but will never lack correction. He is  free to choose again when he has been deceived, to change his mind
W1:195.7  find, the way is opening at last to us. An ancient door is swinging  free again; a long forgotten Word re-echoes in our memory and gathers
W1:196.1  that to attack another is but to attack yourself. You will be  free of the insane belief that to attack a brother saves yourself.
W1:196.6  if you accept the fearful thought you can attack another and be  free yourself. Until this form is changed, there is no hope. Until
W1:196.9  salvation. You are strong, and it is strength you want. And you are  free and glad of freedom. You have sought to be both weak and bound
W1:197.1 Here is the second step we take to  free your mind from the belief in outside force pitted against your

W1:198.1  have effects, and all it seemed to have will be undone. Then are you  free, for freedom is your gift, and you can now receive the gift you
W1:199.1  a body looks for it where it cannot be found. The mind can be made  free when it no longer sees itself as in a body, firmly tied to it
W1:199.4  it can be seen as what it is. Declare your innocence, and you are  free. The body disappears because you have no need of it except the
W1:199.7 Be  free today, and carry freedom as your gift to those who still believe
W1:199.7  to those who still believe they are enslaved within a body. Be you  free, so that the Holy Spirit can make use of your escape from
W1:199.7  that the Holy Spirit can make use of your escape from bondage to set  free the many who perceive themselves as bound and helpless and
W1:199.9 I am not a body. I am  free. I hear the Voice that God has given me, and it is only this my
W1:200.5  bound till all the world is seen by you as blessed and everyone made  free of your mistakes and honored as he is. You made him not; no more
W1:200.5  and honored as he is. You made him not; no more yourself. And as you  free the one, the other is accepted as he is.

W1:212.1  God would have me fill. I seek the function that would set me  free from all the vain illusions of the world. Only the function God
W1:212.1  I seek, and only this will I accept as mine. I am not a body. I am  free. For I am still as God created me.
W1:213.1  I made that hurt me. What I learn of Him becomes the way I am set  free. And so I choose to learn His lessons and forget my own. I am
W1:213.1  to learn His lessons and forget my own. I am not a body. I am  free. For I am still as God created me.
W1:214.1  but what He gives as what belongs to me. I am not a body. I am  free. For I am still as God created me.
W1:215.1  thanks to Him for showing me the way to go. I am not a body. I am  free. For I am still as God created me.
W1:216.1  if I forgive, salvation will be given me. I am not a body. I am  free. For I am still as God created me.
W1:217.1  I find the Self to Whom my thanks are due? I am not a body. I am  free. For I am still as God created me.
W1:218.1  today I can behold this glory and be glad. I am not a body. I am  free. For I am still as God created me.
W1:219.1 [199] I am not a body. I am  free. I am God's Son. Be still, my mind, and think a moment upon
W1:219.1  to what my Father loves forever as His Son. I am not a body. I am  free. For I am still as God created me.
W1:220.1  and peace is certain as the Love of God. I am not a body. I am  free. For I am still as God created me.

W2:224.1  secure, so lofty, sinless, glorious and great, wholly beneficent and  free from guilt that Heaven looks to it to give it light. It lights
W2:227.1 Father, it is today that I am  free because my will is Yours. I thought to make another will. Yet
W2:227.1  will. Yet nothing that I thought apart from You exists. And I am  free because I was mistaken and did not affect my own reality at all
W2:236.1  I thus direct my mind, which I alone can rule. And thus I set it  free to do the Will of God.
W2:240.2  Son to suffer? Give us faith today to recognize Your Son and set him  free. Let us forgive him in Your Name, that we may understand his
W2:241.1  pain is gone. The glory of salvation dawns today upon a world set  free. This is the time of hope for countless millions. They will be
W2:243.1  so. And so I am relieved of judgment which I cannot make. Thus do I  free myself and what I look upon, to be in peace as God created us.
W2:243.2 Father, today I leave creation  free to be itself. I honor all its parts, in which I am included. We
W2:268.2  today nor let our ears attend to lying tongues. Only reality is  free of pain. Only reality is free of loss. Only reality is wholly
W2:268.2  to lying tongues. Only reality is free of pain. Only reality is  free of loss. Only reality is wholly safe. And it is only this we
W2:277.1 Your Son is  free, my Father. Let me not imagine I have bound him with the laws I
W2:277.2  Yet what he is, is far beyond his faith in slavery or freedom. He is  free, because he is his Father's Son. And he cannot be bound unless
W2:278.1  my Father or my Self. And I am lost to all reality. For truth is  free, and what is bound is not a part of truth.
W2:280.1 Whom God created limitless is  free. I can invent imprisonment for him, but only in illusions, not
W2:289.2  own replacement in a present world the past has left untouched and  free of sin. Here is the end of guilt. And here am I made ready for

W2:308.1  from time is now. For in this instant has forgiveness come to set me  free. The birth of Christ is now, without a past or future. He has
W2:310.1  sign Your grace has come to me and that it is Your will that I be  free today.
W2:310.2  thankfulness and joy to Him Who gave salvation to us, and Who set us  free. We are restored to peace and holiness. There is no room in us
W2:WILJ.4  And the world awaits your glad acceptance, which will set it  free.
W2:312.2  have no purpose for today except to look upon a liberated world, set  free from all the judgments I have made. Father, this is Your will
W2:314.2  we were mistaken in the past and choose to use the present to be  free. Now do we leave the future in Your hands, leaving behind our
W2:321.1 I did not understand what made me  free nor what my freedom is nor where to look to find it. Father, I
W2:330.2  Identity we share with You. We would return to It today, to be made  free forever from all our mistakes and to be saved from what we
W2:332.2  it prisoner. And yet Your Love has given us the means to set it  free. Father, we would release it now. For as we offer freedom, it is
W2:340.1  directing him to find Christ's vision through forgiveness and be  free forever from all suffering. Thanks for today, my Father. I was
W2:343.2 The mercy and the peace of God are  free. Salvation has no cost. It is a gift that must be freely given
W2:350.1  my Father, I would turn to You. Only Your memory will set me  free. And only my forgiveness teaches me to let Your memory return to
W2:354.1  establishes me as Your Son, beyond the reach of time and wholly  free of every law but Yours. I have no self except the Christ in me.
W2:FL.1 Our final lessons will be left as  free of words as possible. We use them but at the beginning of our
M:2.3  thought, a fresh idea, a different approach. Because your will is  free, you can accept what has already happened at any time you
M:2.3  that it was always there. As the course emphasizes, you are not  free to choose the curriculum or even the form in which you will
M:2.3  the curriculum or even the form in which you will learn it. You are  free, however, to decide when you want to learn it. And as you accept
M:4.15  Who is their Source. And so their will, which always was His own, is  free to be itself.
M:10.5  down, not with regret but with a sigh of gratitude. Now are you  free of a burden so great that you could merely stagger and fall down
M:13.4  looks back on it with condemnation. Yet he must rejoice that he is  free of all the sacrifice which its value would demand of him. To
M:13.6  things that crucify God's Son. And it is the course's aim to set him  free. But do not be mistaken about what sacrifice means. It always
M:15.1  his sinlessness proclaimed around and around the world, setting it  free as God's Final Judgment on him is received. This is the judgment
M:15.1  in which salvation lies. This is the judgment that will set him  free. This is the judgment in which all things are freed with him.
M:15.2 Holy are you, eternal,  free, and whole, at peace forever in the Heart of God. Where is the
M:15.4  minds an instant longer. God's judgment waits for you to set you  free. What can the world hold out to you, regardless of your
M:18.2  ears and bring Christ's vision to the eyes that see. Now is He  free to teach all minds the truth of what they are, so they will
M:28.4  things is now at hand. There is no death. The Son of God is  free. And in his freedom is the end of fear. No hidden places now
M:28.5  beyond all purposes. Holy are we because His holiness has set us  free indeed, and we accept His holiness as ours, as it is. As God

C:11.12 It is true that your  free will is powerful as it is part, but only part, of what has

C:11.12  truly occur—you have chosen instead to do nothing at all with your  free will but make this one insane choice. Your willingness to make a
C:11.12  willingness to make a new choice is what will once again make your  free will like unto your Father's will, which is one with it in truth.
C:11.13 Your protectiveness of your  free will is why we must separate willingness from your perception of

C:13.1 You will never  fully understand what unity means, but you will come to feel what
C:17.3  are aware of all that exists within the universe, or even that you  fully know your own Self. What is fearful about the unknown is simply
C:17.5  of evidence. Yet, in your estimation, the unknown cannot be  fully good or worthy of your knowing because the reason that you use

C:18.14  not change from moment to moment. What you desired you experienced  fully with your whole being, making it one with you. That you keep
C:18.14  it one with you. That you keep yourself from desiring anything  fully here is what makes this existence so chaotic and erratic. A
C:18.14  mind and heart in conflict is what keeps you from desiring anything  fully, and thus from creating.
C:19.1  and corrective devices created alongside them. You could not  fully experience separation without a sense of self as separate, and
C:19.1  separation without a sense of self as separate, and you could not  fully experience anything without your free will. A separate self

T1:10.3 Here is this experience you have created and how often have you been  fully engaged in it? How often have you given yourself over to those
T2:1.5  of heaven and see peace as a state of being for those too weary to  fully live. Done with the adventures of living, you would deem
T2:1.8 The treasure that lies within that you do not yet  fully recognize is that of unity. As you have learned much of unity
T2:1.13  exists without these “things” and that the treasure is already a  fully realized creation. The treasure already is and it is already
T2:2.1  of calling. What is it in you that recognizes talents that lie  fully realized within? The practical mind is not the source of such
T2:3.1  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. You are
T2:3.2  heart and one mind. It is the place where everything already exists  fully realized. It is like a trunk full of treasure. Like a menu of
T2:3.4  even within the daily life you currently move through. Now you must  fully recognize the distinction between the ego-self that previously
T2:5.1 In order for you to more  fully understand the life that this Course calls you to, we must also

T2:5.7  you will not fully believe that needs are not lacks. Until you have  fully integrated the truth that giving and receiving are one, you

T2:6.8  accomplished within its seed and yet grows and changes, you exist  fully accomplished within the seed that is the Christ in you even
T2:8.6  as are your expressions of who you are. This distinction must be  fully realized here in order for you to accept the truth of who you

T3:1.13  place where such work can be done. We work with what we have, a form  fully able to represent the truth and, in so doing, we bring the
T3:3.6  in truth, replaced judgment with forgiveness, but you have not yet  fully forgiven yourself. This statement may sound incongruous, for
T3:3.6  does not mean that you are not loveable, only that you have not yet  fully recognized your true Self. Until you fully recognize your Self,
T3:3.6  that you have not yet fully recognized your true Self. Until you  fully recognize your Self, you cannot fully love yourself. Until you
T3:3.6  your true Self. Until you fully recognize your Self, you cannot  fully love yourself. Until you fully love, you do not love in truth.
T3:3.6  fully recognize your Self, you cannot fully love yourself. Until you  fully love, you do not love in truth.

T4:4.12  of everlasting consciousness while you still abide in form is to be  fully aware that you have life everlasting.
T4:4.13 Being  fully aware that you have life everlasting is totally different than

D:1.17  can be used as continuing lessons until you feel that learning is  fully accomplished. They can serve as reminders as you continue to
D:1.23  thinking of a god who exists outside or apart from yourself. If you  fully accepted your true identity, you would no longer look outside
D:1.26  who know things that you know not. This is not the case. When you  fully accept this, you will see that it is true. Like the acceptance
D:4.22  away. If you are tempted by a relationship in which you cannot be  fully yourself because of the security it will provide, you are but
D:4.31  feel must prevent you from the acceptance I call you to. Yet as you  fully accept that your right to your inheritance, your right to be

D:11.8  you to your idea of how these words have come to you, for if you can  fully accept the way in which these words have been given and
D:11.8  these words have been given and received, you will see that you can  fully accept the way of unity.
D:11.10  for answers when this has been accepted. Because you will know and  fully accept that the answers lie within.
D:13.6  that this knowing must be shared. And yet, you will not, at first,  fully realize that this sharing is not needed so much as a means of
D:14.4  remember your invulnerability in order to be a real explorer, and to  fully participate in the discovery that lies beyond the body and
D:14.12  what you are is not complete, has not yet become whole, has not been  fully birthed. Your forms are complete in the physical sense of
D:14.12  days of birthing new aspects of the self, all without becoming more  fully who you are.
D:16.14  no doubt. You are confident in what you know. You realize  fully that you are no longer a learning being and that you have no

D:16.20  letting them go, your presence is not wholly realized, you are not  fully here, not whole, not complete. You are at times who you are,
D:16.21  an image, is incapable of true joining in relationship. You must be  fully present in order to join in relationship. All of your images
D:17.14  reach a state of full acceptance of who you are, and in that state,  fully accept that your contribution is being made, will desire still
D:Day1.3  an ascended state. Without your acceptance of who I am, you will not  fully accept who you are. Without your willingness to achieve this
D:Day2.3  that you have not as yet developed the capacity to accept this  fully. For most of you, much of what you have considered your
D:Day2.17 For many of you the crucifixion is among the reasons you hesitate to  fully accept me. It is hard for you to believe that my suffering was
D:Day3.25  What you learned is insane. But to realize the truth you must now  fully reject the untruths that you learned. You must fully reject the
D:Day3.25  you must now fully reject the untruths that you learned. You must  fully reject the ideas that taught you that you do not have enough,
D:Day4.54  which is why it cannot remain with you as the way opens for you to  fully know the Self of unity. You are about to achieve your first
D:Day5.10  and this will be done as you come to know what unity is, and so more  fully come to know your Self and love.
D:Day5.14  of union that your Self will come to wholeness and you will be  fully who you are and able to express love fully.
D:Day5.14  wholeness and you will be fully who you are and able to express love  fully.
D:Day5.17  clones or one specific type of idealized holy person. Union is being  fully who you are and expressing fully who you are. This is the
D:Day5.17  holy person. Union is being fully who you are and expressing  fully who you are. This is the miracle, the goal, the accomplishment
D:Day5.20  to come to you to come. If you could indeed give in to this desire  fully, it would speed the transformation along quite nicely. So
D:Day5.26  relationship with unity. It is a constant exchange. When you are  fully aware of this is when full access is attained. So we will
D:Day6.2  leave of the everyday world of your “normal” existence and feel  fully present on the holy mountain. This is not a second-best
D:Day7.15  in-between time. You have always existed in unity and once this is  fully realized you will no more need access to unity than you need
D:Day7.16 When your natural state is  fully returned to you and sustained within Christ-consciousness, the
D:Day8.1  the conditions of the time of acceptance may not have cheered you  fully. Now, with the ideas of the conditions of the time of
D:Day8.10  will lead to action that is consistent with who you are when you are  fully comfortable in your acceptance of who you are. Understand,
D:Day10.15  still hold an image of me as “other than” yourself. You will never  fully rely upon your Self while you hold these images.
D:Day10.21  lost Jesus as your companion and helpmate but will only know more  fully the content of the man Jesus. As you join with
D:Day10.21  you will realize you have not lost your Self but will only know more  fully the content of your Self.
D:Day14.7 Once you  fully realize that you cannot escape, whatever remains that was
D:Day14.7  to a stop within you must pass through for the self to be the  fully invisible or spacious Self described earlier. What you once
D:Day15.1 When you  fully realize that sharing is necessary you will have entered the
D:Day15.1  is necessary you will have entered the dialogue. When you have  fully surrendered to the fact that you can't come to know on your own
D:Day15.1  to know on your own you will have entered the dialogue. When you  fully accept that the voice of the one can be heard in the voice of
D:Day15.1  the voice of the many you will have entered the dialogue. When you  fully realize that you are in-formed by everything and everyone in
D:Day15.3  is in all things and that is the great informer. As you are more  fully able to maintain Christ-consciousness you begin the movement
D:Day16.9  no escape, however, because in Christ-consciousness, you must become  fully aware of the present. The present is the time of no time,
D:Day17.5  their being gained movement and expression. Those like Jesus, who  fully expressed Christ-consciousness in form, did so as individuals,
D:Day17.7  the first coming—the movement of being into form. This being was  fully expressed by Jesus Christ, who represented, in form, the first
D:Day18.4 Only those who have  fully accepted who they are, are capable of being example lives.
D:Day18.5  without attachment to previous concerns, for in their renewal they  fully realize the necessity of what can be given only through
D:Day20.1  you have relied upon so that you begin to rely more and more  fully on the truth of this dialogue.
D:Day20.2  move beyond the known to the unknown. You are perhaps eager without  fully realizing that this eagerness symbolizes a true ending—an
D:Day22.7  nor sorrow, no separation or alienation. You sense that if you could  fully express this place of union, if you could abide there, if you
D:Day35.18  made. Your life as you know it is what you have made. You will only  fully realize the difference between what you have made and what you
D:Day35.19  create. The word distinction between made and create thus does not  fully do justice to the power you have always retained. But creating
D:Day35.20  does. It does not entail choice. It is a way of being. When you are  fully aware of your oneness of being and begin to create in unity and
D:Day38.10  owned and possessed by, and in, union and relationship, you have not  fully known love. To claim something as your own is simply to claim
D:Day40.10 Lest you do not  fully understand, this might be more easily grasped if we talk for

Tx:2.60 Before miracle workers are ready to undertake their  function in this world, it is essential that they fully understand
Tx:3.44  of ambiguity is clear perception. The mind returns to its proper  function only when it wills to know. This places it in the Soul's
Tx:3.46  or translation, which knowledge does not need. The interpretive  function of perception, actually a distorted form of creation, then
Tx:3.56  is a miracle. Miraculous creation was his Source and also his real  function.

Tx:4.91  you will be ready to hear God as you hear them. That is because the  function of love is one.
Tx:4.97  God created you by this and for this. The mind can distort its  function, but it cannot endow itself with functions it was not given.
Tx:5.38  the laws of God, for which He speaks. He can thus perform the  function of reinterpreting what the ego makes, not by destruction
Tx:5.67  thoughts, although you can believe in them. But you are wrong. The  function of thought comes from God and is in God. As part of His
Tx:5.82  of this in every passing moment of time, because it is His special  function to return you to eternity and remain to bless your
Tx:7.30  That is why the Holy Spirit never questions. His sole  function is to undo the questionable and thus lead to certainty.
Tx:7.68  you gently that you are sad because you are not fulfilling your  function as co-creators with God and are therefore depriving
Tx:7.93  His Being. The extension of God's Being is the Soul's only  function. Its fullness cannot be contained any more than can the
Tx:7.93  whole thought system blocks extension and thus blocks your only  function. It therefore blocks your joy, and that is why you perceive
Tx:7.94  is perfect peace in the Kingdom. Every Soul is fulfilling its  function, and only complete fulfillment is peace.
Tx:7.100 Yet the  function which God Himself gave your minds through His you may deny,
Tx:7.101  and are in fact very apt to confuse the two. The Holy Spirit's main  function is to teach you to tell them apart. However strange it may
Tx:7.108  a state of grace, he is out of his natural environment and does not  function well. Everything he does becomes a strain, because he was
Tx:8.16  was created [by unlimited Will in order] to teach. Knowing His  function perfectly, He wills to fulfill it perfectly, because that is
Tx:8.17  only joy and peace that can be fully known, because it is the only  function that can be fully experienced. When this is accomplished,
Tx:8.18  must be extended outward. You who belong in God have the holy  function of extending His Fatherhood by placing no limits upon it.
Tx:8.24  and everything belongs to Him. Giving of your self is the  function He gave you. Fulfilling it perfectly will teach you what you
Tx:8.35  is everything. Unless you take your place in It and fulfill your  function as part of It, It is as bereft as you are. No part of It
Tx:8.46  else but joy would you want? You made neither yourself nor your  function. You made only the decision to be unworthy of both. Yet
Tx:8.47 Your  function is to add to God's treasure by creating yours. His Will
Tx:8.47  because you do not understand Him. No one who does not know his  function can understand it, and no one can know his function unless
Tx:8.47  not know his function can understand it, and no one can know his  function unless he knows who he is. Creation is the Will of God.
Tx:8.48  of God's Son if they so choose. This choice does make the Son's  function unknown to him, but never to his Creator. And because
Tx:8.49  I asked it of Him and learned of what He had already given. Our  function is to function together, because apart from each other we

Tx:8.49  is to function together, because apart from each other we cannot  function at all. The whole power of God's Son lies in all of us, but
Tx:8.55  anything can have is the service it can render God on behalf of the  function He has given it.
Tx:8.65  the cause of all illness, because only extension is the mind's  function. The opposite of joy is depression. When your learning
Tx:8.69  incapable of true generalizations and equates what it sees with the  function it ascribes to it. It does not equate it with what it
Tx:8.69  The body's condition lies solely in your interpretation of its  function.
Tx:8.70 The reason why definitions in terms of  function are inferior is that they may well be inaccurate. Functions
Tx:8.74  nor does the Holy Spirit. We have said that judgment is the  function of the Holy Spirit and one which He is perfectly equipped to
Tx:8.75 It is still true that the body has no  function of itself, because it is not an end. The ego, however,
Tx:8.75  establishes it as an end because as such it will lose its true  function. This is the purpose of everything the ego does. Its sole
Tx:8.75  of everything the ego does. Its sole aim is to lose sight of the  function of everything. A sick body does not make any sense. It
Tx:8.76  the data are meaningless, there is no point in considering them. The  function of truth is to collect data which are true. There is no
Tx:8.79  and therefore heal you. Everything used in accordance with its  function as the Holy Spirit sees it cannot be sick. Everything used
Tx:8.84  be teaching that one error can be more real than another. His  function is to distinguish only between the false and the true,
Tx:8.93  available but cannot help you. When we said that the Holy Spirit's  function is to sort out the true from the false in your unconscious,
Tx:9.8 Do not undertake His  function, or you will forget yours. Accept only the function of
Tx:9.8  His function, or you will forget yours. Accept only the  function of healing in time, because that is what time is for. God
Tx:9.8  in time, because that is what time is for. God gave you the  function to create in eternity. You do not need to learn this, but
Tx:9.14  His teaching in forgiveness then, because forgiveness is His  function, and He knows how to fulfill it perfectly. That is what we
Tx:9.15  the fact that you do not know what it is. His work is not your  function, and unless you accept this, you cannot learn what your
Tx:9.15  function, and unless you accept this, you cannot learn what your  function is. The confusion of functions is so typical of the ego that
Tx:9.28  he is the Guide. The human therapist can only let Him fulfill His  function. He needs no help for this. He will tell you exactly what
Tx:9.28  also that the right one will. Trust Him, for help is His  function, and He is of God.
Tx:10.10  It can only be increased, and everything He creates has the  function of creating. Love does not limit, and what it creates is not
Tx:10.21 You will never rest until you know your  function and fulfill it, for only in this can your will and your
Tx:10.21  given Himself to you. You who have God must be as God, for His  function became yours with His gift. Invite this knowledge back
Tx:10.45  the independence of creation, not of autonomy. Your whole creative  function lies in your complete dependence on God, Whose function He
Tx:10.45  creative function lies in your complete dependence on God, Whose  function He shares with you. By His Willingness to share it, He
Tx:10.51  your autonomy by identifying with Him and fulfilling your  function as it exists in truth. The ego believes that to accomplish
Tx:10.51  its goal is happiness. But it is given you to know that God's  function is yours and happiness cannot be found apart from your
Tx:11.64  through you. Do the Holy Spirit's work, for you share in His  function. As your function in Heaven is creation, so your function on
Tx:11.64  Do the Holy Spirit's work, for you share in His function. As your  function in Heaven is creation, so your function on earth is healing.
Tx:11.64  in His function. As your function in Heaven is creation, so your  function on earth is healing. God shares His function with you in
Tx:11.64  is creation, so your function on earth is healing. God shares His  function with you in Heaven, and the Holy Spirit shares His with you
Tx:11.73  If it is your judgment, it will be wrong, for judgment is not your  function. If it is the judgment of the Holy Spirit, it will be right,
Tx:11.73  judgment of the Holy Spirit, it will be right, for judgment is His  function. You share His function only by judging as He does,
Tx:11.73  it will be right, for judgment is His function. You share His  function only by judging as He does, reserving no judgment at all
Tx:11.83  the attraction of love for love remains irresistible. For it is the  function of love to unite all things unto itself, and to hold all
Tx:12.23  on love because it is about you. You have been told that your  function in this world is healing, and your function in Heaven is
Tx:12.23  have been told that your function in this world is healing, and your  function in Heaven is creating. The ego teaches that your function on
Tx:12.23  and your function in Heaven is creating. The ego teaches that your  function on earth is destruction and that you have no function at all
Tx:12.23  that your function on earth is destruction and that you have no  function at all in Heaven. It would thus destroy you here and bury
Tx:12.30  as rendering the need for it unnecessary. Thus does He regard the  function of time as temporary, serving only His teaching function,
Tx:12.30  regard the function of time as temporary, serving only His teaching  function, which is temporary by definition. His emphasis is
Tx:12.31 The ego, on the other hand, regards the  function of time as one of extending itself in place of eternity,
Tx:12.32 You too will interpret the  function of time as you interpret yours. If you accept your function
Tx:12.32  the function of time as you interpret yours. If you accept your  function in the world of time as healing, you will emphasize only
Tx:12.32  extends the present rather than the past. But if you interpret your  function as destruction, you will lose sight of the present and hold
Tx:13.3  formulation of reality with no effect at all. The miracle, without a  function in Heaven, is needful here. Aspects of reality can still
Tx:13.4 Apart from the Father and the Son, the Holy Spirit has no  function. He is not separate from either, being in the mind of both
Tx:13.64  that guilt is interference, not salvation, and serves no useful  function at all.
Tx:13.88  real and visible to them that use it. On earth this is your only  function, and you must learn that it is all you want to learn.
Tx:13.89  form it takes, your guilt arises from your failure to fulfill your  function in God's Mind with all of yours. Can you escape this guilt
Tx:13.89  all of yours. Can you escape this guilt by failing to fulfill your  function here? You need not understand creation to do what must be
Tx:13.90  Holiness nor anyone unworthy of His perfect Love. Fail not in your  function of loving in a loveless place made out of darkness and
Tx:13.91  for yourself, remember that you have decided against your  function in Heaven and consider carefully whether you want to make
Tx:13.91  consider carefully whether you want to make decisions here. Your  function here is only to decide against deciding what you want in
Tx:13.91  do? Leave all decisions to the One Who speaks for God and for your  function as He knows it. So will He teach you to remove the awful
Tx:14.6  learns it, he will suffer the pain of dim awareness that his true  function remains unfulfilled in him. The burden of guilt is heavy,
Tx:14.23 The Holy Spirit's  function is entirely communication. He therefore must remove
Tx:14.38  of truth and illusion, of the ego to God, is the Holy Spirit's only  function. Keep not your making from your Father, for hiding it has
Tx:14.47  order of difficulty can occur. The miracle, therefore, has a unique  function and is motivated by a unique Teacher, Who brings the laws of
Tx:14.50  is to judge and to arrange by judgment. [Therefore, it is not your  function, but the Holy Spirit's.] It will seem difficult for you to
Tx:15.1  constitutes all your learning. He has not fulfilled His teaching  function until you have become such a consistent learner that you
Tx:15.24  you, and by limiting yourself, you will not be satisfied. For your  function is not little, and it is only by finding your function and
Tx:15.24  For your function is not little, and it is only by finding your  function and fulfilling it that you can escape from littleness.
Tx:15.25 There is no doubt about what your  function is, for the Holy Spirit knows what it is. There is no
Tx:15.48  has entered cannot be depended on because it is not perfect. In His  function as Interpreter of what you have made, the Holy Spirit uses
Tx:15.77  surely as damnation lies in guilt. It is the Holy Spirit's teaching  function to instruct those who believe that communication is
Tx:15.77  And guilt, whose only purpose is to disrupt communication, has no  function here.
Tx:15.84  what God cannot know and what you do not understand. It is His holy  function to accept them both, and by removing every element of
Tx:15.84  to join them into one. He will do this because it is His  function. Leave, then, what seems to you to be impossible to Him Who
Tx:15.92  season means anything in eternity. But here it is the Holy Spirit's  function to use them both, though not as the ego uses them. This is
Tx:16.8  them all to Him Whose function is to meet them. That is His  function and not yours. He will not meet them secretly, for He
Tx:16.9  Him is for the whole Sonship, not for part of it. Leave Him His  function, for He will fulfill it if you but ask Him to enter your
Tx:17.10  for everything that has been used for learning will have no  function. Nothing will ever change; no shifts nor shadings, no
Tx:17.27  can be real. The purpose God ascribed to anything is its only  function. Because of His reason for creating His relationship with
Tx:17.27  Because of His reason for creating His relationship with you, the  function of relationships became forever “to make happy.” And
Tx:17.27  became forever “to make happy.” And nothing else. To fulfill this  function, you relate to your creations as God to His. For nothing God
Tx:17.27  would extend happiness as its Creator did. Whatever fulfills this  function not cannot be real.
Tx:17.28  And by that all that is meant is that He will restore to them the  function given them by God. The function you have given them is
Tx:17.28  is that He will restore to them the function given them by God. The  function you have given them is clearly not to make happy. But the
Tx:18.13 You have been called together to the most holy  function that this world contains. It is the only one which has no
Tx:18.30 You who are now the bringers of salvation have the  function of bringing light to darkness. The darkness in you has
Tx:18.38  instant belongs to Him Who gives it. Release yourselves to Him Whose  function is release. Do not assume His function for Him. Give Him but
Tx:18.38  yourselves to Him Whose function is release. Do not assume His  function for Him. Give Him but what He asks, that you may learn how
Tx:18.42  tried to remove all fear and hatred from your mind. That is its  function. Never attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the
Tx:18.42  your guilt before you ask the Holy Spirit's help. That is His  function. Your part is only to offer Him a little willingness to
Tx:18.43  you plan for this? Or could you prepare yourselves for such a  function? Yet it is possible because God wills it. Nor will He change
Tx:18.45  Yet it is very useful to the Holy Spirit, Who has a special  function here. It will become the happy dream through which He can
Tx:18.45  who believe that love is fear, not happiness. Let Him fulfill the  function that He gave to your relationship by accepting it for you,
Tx:18.52  it through projection. And though it clearly can misperceive the  function of the body, it cannot change its function from what the
Tx:18.52  can misperceive the function of the body, it cannot change its  function from what the Holy Spirit establishes it to be. The body was
Tx:19.39  in you has been extended to encompass everyone, the Holy Spirit's  function here will be accomplished. What need is there for seeing
Tx:20.32  this earth in seeming solitude is a savior given, whose special  function here is to release him and so to free himself. In the world
Tx:20.33  them. Each holy relationship must enter here to learn its special  function in the Holy Spirit's plan, now that it shares His purpose.
Tx:20.35  salvation that does not work. Once you accept His plan as the one  function that you would fulfill, there will be nothing else the Holy
Tx:20.37  to find the certainty his Father has in him. And there he finds his  function of restoring his Father's laws to what was held outside them
Tx:20.41  to him. When it is used only as the Holy Spirit teaches, it has no  function, for minds need not the body to communicate. The sight that
Tx:22.23  mercy condemnation. And vision cannot damn, but only bless. Whose  function is to save will save. How he will do it is beyond your
Tx:22.26  that has been given you? And would you not exchange in gratitude the  function of an executioner you gave him for the one he has in truth?
Tx:22.44  by receiving it, he learned it was not given him alone. Such is the  function of a holy relationship—to receive together and give as you
Tx:22.58  This is your part in bringing peace. For you have asked what is your  function here and have been answered. Seek not to change it nor to
Tx:22.59  loves with charity? Extension of forgiveness is the Holy Spirit's  function. Leave this to Him. Let your concern be only that you give
Tx:22.64 This is the  function of your holy relationship. For what one thinks the other
Tx:23.26  ego will enable you to find escape from what it wants. That is the  function of this course, which does not value what the ego cherishes.
Tx:23.32  What protects madness is the belief that it is true. It is the  function of insanity to take the place of truth. It must be seen as
Tx:23.34  it possible. Nor is it unfamiliar; we have seen how it appears to  function many times before. In truth it does not function, yet in
Tx:23.34  how it appears to function many times before. In truth it does not  function, yet in dreams, where only shadows play the major roles, it
Tx:23.49 God does not share His  function with a body. He gave the function to create unto His Son
Tx:23.49 God does not share His function with a body. He gave the  function to create unto His Son because it is His own. It is not
Tx:23.49  unto His Son because it is His own. It is not sinful to believe the  function of the Son is murder, but it is insanity. What is the same
Tx:23.49  but it is insanity. What is the same can have no different  function. Creation is the means for God's extension, and what is His
Tx:23.50  relationship is like the love of God. It cannot yet assume the holy  function God gave His Son, for your forgiveness of one another is not
Tx:24.13  as the gauge of littleness and be released from limits? You have a  function in salvation. Its pursuit will bring you joy. But the
Tx:24.18  to forgive you all the sins you think you placed between him and the  function of salvation given him for you. Nor will you change his
Tx:24.18  the function of salvation given him for you. Nor will you change his  function, any more than you can change the truth in him and in
Tx:24.57  of any kind, is all the other choice can offer you. Futility of  function not fulfilled will haunt you while your brother lies asleep,
Tx:24.59 Specialness is the  function which you gave yourself. It stands for you alone, as
Tx:25.9  aware that it is one and so experienced. It is the Holy Spirit's  function to teach you how this oneness is experienced, what you
Tx:25.19  in him and sees only a frame of darkness, it is still your only  function to behold in him what he sees not. And in this seeing is the
Tx:25.40  you chose to have him be to you. If you decide against his proper  function, the only one he has in truth, you are depriving him of all
Tx:25.41  he be saved, for by his freedom will you gain your own. To let his  function be fulfilled is but the means to let yours be. And so you
Tx:25.41  does you do along with him. And as you see him, so do you define the  function he will have for you until you see him differently and let
Tx:25.45  be unrecognized by you. Nor does He will that he remain without the  function that He gave to him. Let him no more be lonely, for the
Tx:25.45  Let him no more be lonely, for the lonely ones are those who see no  function in the world for them to fill, no place where they are
Tx:25.46  what you made, to heal instead of harm. To each He gives a special  function in salvation he alone can fill—a part for only him. Nor is
Tx:25.46  for only him. Nor is the plan complete until he finds his special  function and fulfills the part assigned to him to make himself
Tx:25.47  given to himself, and so they must be one. Forgiveness is the only  function meaningful in time. It is the means the Holy Spirit uses to
Tx:25.47  is for all. But when it rests on all, it is complete and every  function of this world completed with it. Then is time no more.
Tx:25.49 The Holy Spirit needs your special  function that His may be fulfilled. Think not you lack a special
Tx:25.49  been and will remain in time and in eternity alike. This is the  function given each of you for one another. Take it gently then from
Tx:25.56 Your special  function is the special form in which the fact that God is not insane
Tx:25.58  overlook nor fail completely to perceive at all. To each his special  function is designed to be perceived as possible and more and more
Tx:25.58  everyone's escape. He can no more be left outside without a special  function in the hope of peace than could the Father overlook His Son
Tx:25.59  and so emerge from deepest mourning into perfect joy. Accept the  function that has been assigned to you in God's Own plan to show His
Tx:25.61  Spirit gives meaning and direction to the plan in which your special  function has a part. For here your special function is made whole
Tx:25.61  in which your special function has a part. For here your special  function is made whole because it shares the function of the whole.
Tx:25.72  as well that you cannot accept it for yourself. It is His special  function to hold out to you the gifts the innocent deserve. And
Tx:25.74  so justice may return to love and there be satisfied. Each special  function He allots is but for this—that each one learn that love
Tx:25.75  great and holy that He could not doubt His innocence. Your special  function is a call to Him that He may smile on you whose sinlessness
Tx:25.75  understanding will be yours. And so the Holy Spirit's special  function has been fulfilled. God's Son has found a witness unto his
Tx:25.77  Heaven knows, and all the Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your special  function shows you nothing else but perfect justice can prevail for
Tx:26.5  that gives it sense and makes it meaningful. Without your special  function has this world no meaning for you. Yet it can become a
Tx:26.9  within the rotting prison where he sees himself. It is your special  function to ensure the door be opened that he may come forth to shine
Tx:26.9  of freedom by receiving it of you. What is the Holy Spirit's special  function but to release the holy Son of God from the imprisonment he
Tx:26.9  the imprisonment he made to keep himself from justice? Could your  function be a task apart and separate from His Own?
Tx:26.15  preserved from sacrifice entirely. Consider once again your special  function. One is given you to see in him his perfect sinlessness.
Tx:26.17  Nothing He loves but must be sinless and beyond attack. Your special  function opens wide the door beyond which is the memory of His love
Tx:26.24 Is not this like your special  function, where the separation is undone by change of purpose in what
Tx:26.25  himself as needing it no more. And thus is he returned to his real  function of creating, which his forgiveness offers him again.
Tx:26.53  effects. Who looks on them is but deceived. Forgiveness is the only  function here and serves to bring the joy this world denies to every
Tx:26.57  is what you are. This is the miracle by which creation became your  function, sharing it with God. It is not understood apart from Him
Tx:26.89  you have laid on it by rendering it purposeless, without the  function that the Holy Spirit sees. And simple justice has been thus
Tx:27.10 Your  function is to [prove to] your brother that sin can have no cause.
Tx:27.10  must it be to see yourself a picture of the proof that what your  function is can never be! The Holy Spirit's picture changes not the
Tx:27.10  but waiting for a purpose to be given that it may fulfill the  function that it will receive.
Tx:27.12  but gave illusions of a purpose to a thing you made to hide your  function from yourself. This thing without a purpose cannot hide the
Tx:27.12  function from yourself. This thing without a purpose cannot hide the  function that the Holy Spirit gave. Let, then, its purpose and your
Tx:27.12  function that the Holy Spirit gave. Let, then, its purpose and your  function both be reconciled at last and seen as one.
Tx:27.22 [Correction is not your  function. It belongs to One Who knows of fairness, not of guilt. If
Tx:27.22  not of guilt. If you assume correction's role, you lose the  function of forgiveness. No one can forgive until he learns
Tx:27.22  are the same, and therefore is correction not of you. Identity and  function are the same, and by your function do you know yourself.
Tx:27.22  not of you. Identity and function are the same, and by your  function do you know yourself. And thus, if you confuse your function
Tx:27.22  your function do you know yourself. And thus, if you confuse your  function with the function of Another, you must be confused about
Tx:27.22  you know yourself. And thus, if you confuse your function with the  function of Another, you must be confused about yourself and who
Tx:27.22  and who you are. What is the separation but a wish to take God's  function from Him and deny that it is His? Yet if it is not His,
Tx:27.23  mind, identity must seem to be divided. Nor can anyone perceive a  function unified which has conflicting purposes and different ends.
Tx:27.23  correction as the one more innocent than he. This splits his  function off from yours and gives you both a different role. And so
Tx:27.23  role. And so you cannot be perceived as one and, with a single  function, that would mean a shared identity with but one end.
Tx:27.24 [Correction you would do must separate, because that is the  function given it by you. When you perceive correction is the
Tx:27.24  from the one you cherish and you think is yours. Thus does your  function seem divided, with a half in opposition to a half. And
Tx:27.25  is. From an idea of self as two, there comes a necessary view of  function split between the two. And what you would correct is only
Tx:27.26  it is the other half. And this He does by giving both of you a  function that is one, not different.
Tx:27.27 Correction is the  function given both, but neither one alone. And when it is
Tx:27.27  is divided purpose which cannot be shared, and so it cannot be the  function which the Holy Spirit sees as His. And you can rest assured
Tx:27.27  sees as His. And you can rest assured that He will not fulfill a  function He cannot understand and recognize as His. For only thus can
Tx:27.27  yours preserved intact, despite your separate views of what your  function is. If He upheld divided function, you were lost indeed. His
Tx:27.27  your separate views of what your function is. If He upheld divided  function, you were lost indeed. His inability to see His goal divided
Tx:27.27  for each of you preserves your Self from being made aware of any  function other than Its own. And thus is healing given both of you.

W1:37.1 This idea contains the first glimmerings of your true  function in the world or why you are here. Your purpose is to see the
W1:43.1  so changed and purified that it will lead to knowledge. That is its  function as the Holy Spirit sees it. Therefore, that is its function
W1:43.1  is its function as the Holy Spirit sees it. Therefore, that is its  function in truth.
W1:43.2 In God you cannot see. Perception has no  function in God and does not exist. Yet in salvation, which is the

W1:61.2  to insist that you cannot be the light of the world if that is the  function God assigned to you. It is only arrogance that would assert
W1:61.2  God assigned to you. It is only arrogance that would assert this  function cannot be for you, and arrogance is always of the ego.
W1:61.3  you it is true. This is a beginning step in accepting your real  function on earth. It is a giant stride toward taking your rightful
W1:61.6 I am the light of the world. That is my only  function. That is why I am here.
W1:61.8  it throughout the day, and turn to sleep as you reaffirm your  function and your only purpose here. These two practice periods may

W1:62.6  is my function as the light of the world. I would fulfill my  function that I may be happy.
W1:62.7 Then devote a minute or two to considering your  function and the happiness and release it will bring you.
W1:63.2 You are indeed the light of the world with such a  function. The Son of God looks to you for his redemption. It is yours
W1:63.2  purpose or meaningless desire in its place or you will forget your  function and leave the Son of God in hell. This is no idle request
W1:63.3 Recognizing the importance of this  function, we will be happy to remember it very often today. We will

W1:64.3 To review our last few lessons, your  function here is to be the light of the world, a function given you
W1:64.3  few lessons, your function here is to be the light of the world, a  function given you by God. It is only the arrogance of the ego that
W1:64.4  from all temptation. The Son of God is you. Only by fulfilling the  function given you by God will you be happy. That is because your
W1:64.4  function given you by God will you be happy. That is because your  function is to be happy by using the means by which happiness becomes
W1:64.5  way. Therefore every time you choose whether or not to fulfill your  function, you are really choosing whether to be happy or not. Let us
W1:64.8 Let me not forget my  function. Let me not try to substitute mine for God's. Let me forgive
W1:64.9  will come to help you if you remember the crucial importance of your  function to you and to the world.
W1:64.12 This is the world it is my  function to save.
W1:65.1  your commitment to salvation. It also reminds you that you have no  function other than this. Both of these thoughts are obviously
W1:65.1  still cherish others. The full acceptance of salvation as your only  function necessarily entails two phases: the recognition of salvation
W1:65.1  necessarily entails two phases: the recognition of salvation as your  function and the relinquishment of all the other goals you have
W1:65.1  world. This is the only way in which you can say and mean, “My only  function is the one God gave me.” This is the only way in which you
W1:65.7  thought reflects a goal that is preventing me from accepting my only  function.
W1:65.9 On this clean slate, let my true  function be written for me.
W1:65.13 My only  function is the one God gave me. I want no other and I have no other.
W1:66.1  our recent lessons on the connection between fulfilling your  function and achieving happiness. This is because you do not really
W1:66.2  battle with the Holy Spirit on the fundamental question of what your  function is. So does it do constant battle with the Holy Spirit about
W1:66.2  ego attacks and the Holy Spirit does not respond. He knows what your  function is. He knows that it is your happiness.
W1:66.3  this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the truth about your  function. We will not engage in ceaseless arguments about what it is.
W1:66.4  the fact that not only is there a very real connection between the  function God gave you and your happiness, but that they are actually
W1:66.4  are actually identical. God gives you only happiness. Therefore the  function He gave you must be happiness, even if it appears to be
W1:66.6 God gives me only happiness. He has given my  function to me. Therefore my function must be happiness.
W1:66.6  me only happiness. He has given my function to me. Therefore my  function must be happiness.
W1:66.9 The second premise is that God has given you your  function. We have seen that there are only two parts of your mind.
W1:66.10 Thus it must be that your  function is established by God through His Voice or is made by the
W1:66.10  you have made to replace Him. Which is true? Unless God gave your  function to you, it must be the gift of the ego. Does the ego really
W1:66.11  today. Think also about the many forms which the illusion of your  function has taken in your mind and the many ways in which you tried
W1:66.15 My happiness and  function are one because God has given me both.
W1:69.3  is our only need. There is no other purpose here and no other  function to fulfill. Learning salvation is our only goal. Let us end
W1:R2.4  are dedicated to salvation. Be determined each day not to leave your  function unfulfilled.
W1:81.2  I am the light of the world. How holy am I, who have been given the  function of lighting up the world! Let me be still before my
W1:81.5 [62] Forgiveness is my  function as the light of the world. It is through accepting my
W1:81.5  my function as the light of the world. It is through accepting my  function that I will see the light in me. And in this light will my
W1:81.5  function that I will see the light in me. And in this light will my  function stand clear and perfectly unambiguous before my sight. My
W1:81.5  my sight. My acceptance does not depend on my recognizing what my  function is, for I do not yet understand forgiveness. Yet I will
W1:81.7  this help me learn what forgiveness means. Let me not separate my  function from my will. I would not use this for an alien purpose.
W1:82.5 [64] Let me not forget my  function. I would not forget my function because I would remember my
W1:82.5 [64] Let me not forget my function. I would not forget my  function because I would remember my Self. I cannot fulfill my
W1:82.5  my function because I would remember my Self. I cannot fulfill my  function by forgetting. And unless I fulfill my function, I will not
W1:82.5  I cannot fulfill my function by forgetting. And unless I fulfill my  function, I will not experience the joy that God intends for me.
W1:82.7 Let me not use this to hide my  function from me. I would use this as an opportunity to fulfill my
W1:82.7  function from me. I would use this as an opportunity to fulfill my  function. This may threaten my ego but cannot change my function in
W1:82.7  fulfill my function. This may threaten my ego but cannot change my  function in any way.
W1:83.2 [65] My only  function is the one God gave me. I have no function but the one God
W1:83.2 [65] My only function is the one God gave me. I have no  function but the one God gave me. This recognition releases me from
W1:83.2  to think. All doubt must disappear as I acknowledge that my only  function is the one God gave me.
W1:83.4 My perception of this does not change my  function. This does not give me a function other than the one God
W1:83.4  of this does not change my function. This does not give me a  function other than the one God gave me. Let me not use this to
W1:83.4  other than the one God gave me. Let me not use this to justify a  function God did not give me.
W1:83.5 [66] My happiness and my  function are one. All things that come from God are one. They come
W1:83.5  They come from Oneness and must be received as one. Fulfilling my  function is my happiness because both come from the same Source. And
W1:83.7 This cannot separate my happiness from my  function. The oneness of my happiness and my function remains
W1:83.7  my happiness from my function. The oneness of my happiness and my  function remains wholly unaffected by this. Nothing, including
W1:83.7  this, can justify the illusion of happiness apart from my  function.
W1:89.2  laws of God entitle me to have that I may use it on behalf of the  function He has given me.
W1:96.5  joy. Its power comes from Spirit, and it is fulfilling happily its  function here. Yet mind can also see itself divorced from Spirit and
W1:96.5  perceive itself within a body it confuses with itself. Without its  function then, it has no peace, and happiness is alien to its

W1:96.15  to you will tell you you are saved and that your mind has found the  function that it sought to lose. Your Self will welcome it and give

W1:98.5  you? Is it not worth five minutes hourly to recognize your special  function here? Is not five minutes of the hour but a small request to
W1:98.11  He will do the rest. He will enable you to understand your special  function. He will open up the way to happiness, and peace and trust
W1:98.11  say is true. And you will have conviction then of Him Who knows the  function that you have on earth as well as Heaven. He will be with
W1:99.6  not created by the only Source it knows. This is the thought whose  function is to save by giving you its function as your own.
W1:99.6  This is the thought whose function is to save by giving you its  function as your own.
W1:99.7 Salvation is your  function with the One to Whom the plan was given. Now are you
W1:99.8 Salvation is my only  function here. God still is Love, and this is not His Will.
W1:99.13 Salvation is my only  function here. Salvation and forgiveness are the same.
W1:99.14 Then turn to Him who shares your  function here, and let Him teach you what you need to learn to lay
W1:99.15  your Father gave. You do not want to be another self. You have no  function that is not of God. Forgive yourself the one you think you
W1:99.17 Salvation is my only  function here. God still is Love, and this is not His Will.
W1:99.18 Your only  function tells you you are one. Remind yourself of this between the
W1:99.19 Salvation is my only  function here.

W1:100.6 Today we will attempt to understand joy is our  function here. If you are sad, your part is unfulfilled and all the
W1:100.9  which proves to us and all the world God's Will for us. It is your  function that you find it here and that you find it now. For this you
W1:102.5 I share God's Will for happiness for me, and I accept it as my  function now.
W1:102.6 Then seek this  function deep within your mind, for it is there, awaiting but your
W1:102.7 Be happy, for your only  function here is happiness. You have no need to be less loving to
W1:102.7  to tell yourself that you have now accepted happiness as your one  function. And be sure that you are joining with God's Will in doing
W1:106.6  It is here and will today be given unto you. And you will learn your  function from the One Who chose it in your Father's Name for you.
W1:107.11  from Him. You speak to Him today and make your pledge to let His  function be fulfilled through you. To share His function is to share
W1:107.11  pledge to let His function be fulfilled through you. To share His  function is to share His joy. His confidence is with you, as you say:
W1:107.15 Do not forget your  function for today. Each time you tell yourself with confidence,
W1:114.3  I will accept my part in God's plan for salvation. What can my  function be but to accept the Word of God, Who has created me, for
W1:115.2 [99] Salvation is my only  function here. My function here is to forgive the world for all the
W1:115.2 [99] Salvation is my only function here. My  function here is to forgive the world for all the errors I have made.
W1:115.5 Salvation is my only  function here.
W1:123.3  changeless as Himself. Be grateful you are saved. Be glad you have a  function in salvation to fulfill. Be thankful that your value far
W1:135.14  is health assured. For everything the mind employs for this will  function flawlessly and with the strength that has been given it and
W1:135.27  or magical beliefs can still have value when you have received your  function from the Voice of God Himself?
W1:137.6 Yet think not healing is unworthy of your  function here. For anti-Christ becomes more powerful than Christ to
W1:137.13 We will remember, as the hour strikes, our  function is to let our minds be healed that we may carry healing to
W1:137.16  sick and offer blessing where there was attack. Nor will we let this  function be forgot as every hour of the day slips by, remembering our
W1:137.16  be forgot as every hour of the day slips by, remembering our  function with this thought:

W1:154.2  appointed role may be, it was selected by the Voice for God, Whose  function is to speak for you as well. Seeing your strengths exactly
W1:154.3  at last there is One Voice in you. And that One Voice appoints your  function and relays it to you, giving you the strength to understand
W1:154.15  how they have changed our minds about ourselves and what our  function is. For as we prove that we accept no will we do not share,
W1:184.9  world, forgetting them forever; yet were asked to take a teaching  function. You have need to use the symbols of the world a while. But
W1:186.1  from every mind. Here is the thought of true humility which holds no  function as your own but that which has been given you. It offers
W1:186.2 Let us not fight our  function. We did not establish it. It is not our idea. The means are
W1:186.4  to us what He would have us do. We do not doubt our adequacy for the  function He will offer us. We will be certain only that He knows our
W1:186.8 And so we find our peace. We will accept the  function God has given us, for all illusions rest upon the weird

W1:186.14  is given here as it is needed. In this form, you can fulfill your  function even here, although what love will mean to you when

W1:197.9  Earn now the gratitude you have denied yourself when you forgot the  function God has given you. But never think that He has ever ceased
W1:200.6 What does forgiveness do? In truth it has no  function and does nothing, for it is unknown in Heaven. It is only
W1:200.6  It is only hell where it is needed and where it must serve a mighty  function. Is not the escape of God's beloved Son from evil dreams

C:27.18  that you will have power that is not of this world? Will you see the  future and the past, be cognizant of destiny and of fate? You do have
C:29.26  this unbroken chain of giving and receiving. All your worry over the  future and the past is but a worry about the return of gifts given.

C:30.2  means for getting there. All learning is seen as preparation for the  future, or for some eventual outcome, rather than for your being. You
C:30.4  that relates to time. You think of present time, past time,  future time. We have spoken of these modes of keeping time as well,
C:31.15  your past, your shame, your guilt; on the other that you are your  future, your glory, your potential. You neither want to share your

T2:6.5  your mind projects what you desire to accomplish onto an unknown  future time is what would seem to keep you from accomplishment. I say
T2:6.6  I am rather than I will be. I will be is a statement that presumes a  future in which you will be someone other than who you are in the
T3:1.11  the present and that the self of the present made up the self of the  future. The personal self you presented to others in the past was a
T3:1.11  another, than you did in defining a past self, a present self and a  future self. The greatest distinction of all was that between the
T3:14.12  to take place. The past is no more and neither the present nor the  future can be built upon it. This is why we have spent so much time
T3:14.13  no cause to prolong it. The past is but a starting point for the  future. Just as we talked of the consequences of blame and how you
T3:15.7  has been represented by the past. You must forget the idea that the  future cannot be different than the past.
T3:16.6  would seem to make all that we speak of here a blueprint for some  future reality. All that would keep this lag in time a constant, and
T3:20.6  to be. You look ahead, and in your mind's eye you “observe” the  future as a repetition of the present or as a long war with little

T3:22.8  eyes closed is the observation of what is. This will relate to the  future pattern of creating that we will speak of more in the next

T4:2.19  think in terms of evangelizing or convincing, you think in terms of  future outcome rather than in terms of what already is. This type of

T4:11.2 The  future depends on you who are willing to leave learning behind and
T4:11.2  to accept your new roles as creators of the new—creators of the  future.

T4:12.35 What will the  future hold? It is up to us dear brothers and sisters. It is up to us
T4:12.35  us creating as one body, one mind, one heart. Because it is the new  future of a new form joined in unity and relationship, the only
