Tx:6.74 | as always, the ego perceives the first lesson as insane. In | fact this is its only alternative here since the other one, which |

Tx:9.84 | Him. You can give up the god of sickness for your brothers; in | fact, you would have to do so if you give him up for yourself. For |
Tx:9.96 | This was his alternative to joy, because he would not accept the | fact that, although he was a creator, he had been created. Yet the |
Tx:10.34 | of the dawn of light. Remember also that the denial of this simple | fact takes many forms, and these you must learn to recognize and to |
Tx:10.40 | surely learned by now that fear is not real. We have accepted the | fact already that its effects can be dispelled merely by denying |
Tx:10.41 | by understanding that the term itself does not mean anything. In | fact, it contains exactly the contradiction in terms which makes it |
Tx:10.64 | it is the symbol of joy. Its whole compelling power lies in the | fact that it represents what you want to be. The freedom to leave |
Tx:11.2 | own ability to understand what you perceive. This is shown by the | fact that you react to your interpretations as if they were correct |
Tx:11.13 | you learn of Him how to replace your dream of separation with the | fact of unity. For the separation is only the denial of union and, |

Tx:13.1 | is the only therapist. He teaches that the past does not exist, a | fact which belongs to the sphere of knowledge and which therefore no |

Tx:14.28 | You cannot have them both, for each denies the other. Apart, this | fact is lost from sight, for each in a separate place can be |

Tx:14.54 | for truth, the ego can no longer defend its lack of content. The | fact of union tells them it is not true. |
Tx:14.67 | which only guiltlessness can bring and thus establishes the | fact that guiltlessness must be. |
Tx:15.23 | too poor a gift to satisfy you. It is essential that you accept the | fact, and accept it gladly, that there is no form of littleness that |
Tx:15.57 | so little faith in yourself because you are unwilling to accept the | fact that perfect love is in you. And so you seek without for what |

Tx:15.87 | to give up every use the ego has for the body and to accept the | fact that the ego has no purpose you would share with it. For the |
Tx:15.96 | You see no other alternatives, for you cannot accept the | fact that sacrifice gets nothing. Sacrifice is so essential to your |
Tx:16.2 | proof that empathy as the ego uses it is destructive lies in the | fact that it is applied only to certain types of problems and in |
Tx:16.5 | is strength in this sense only—to recognize and accept the | fact that you do not know is to recognize and accept the fact that |
Tx:16.5 | the fact that you do not know is to recognize and accept the | fact that He does know. You are not sure that He will do His part |
Tx:16.23 | Does not the | fact that you have not learned what you have taught show you that you |
Tx:16.33 | Love is not an illusion. It is a | fact. Where disillusionment is possible, there was not love but hate. |
Tx:16.56 | Salvation lies in the simple | fact that illusions are not fearful because they are not true. They |
Tx:17.40 | dark picture brought to light is not perceived as fearful, but the | fact that it is just a picture is brought home at last. And what |
Tx:17.57 | Spirit's purpose is extremely simple, but it is unequivocal. In | fact in order to be simple, it must be unequivocal. The simple is |
Tx:17.62 | Spirit sees the situation as a whole. The goal establishes the | fact that everyone involved in it will play his part in its |

Tx:26.21 | This is not your decision. It is but a simple statement of a simple | fact. But in this world, there are no simple facts because what is |
Tx:26.36 | a hindrance can this dream be to where he really is? For this is | fact and does not change whatever dreams he has. Yet can he still |

W1:43.14 | equally applicable to strangers and to those you know well. Try, in | fact, not to make distinctions of this kind at all. |

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 |

W1:77.6 | 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:4.3 | their function rests. Perception is the result of learning. In | fact, perception is learning, because cause and effect are never |
M:4.10 | fully reflected. From here the way to Heaven is open and easy. In | fact, it is here. Who would “go” anywhere if peace of mind is already |

M:6.3 | would have the gift. Trust is an essential part of giving; in | fact, it is the part that makes sharing possible, the part that |
M:10.3 | in the usual sense is impossible. This is not an opinion, but a | fact. In order to judge anything rightly, one would have to be fully |
M:11.1 | if His promises are to be accepted. What the world is, is but a | fact. You cannot choose what this should be. But you can choose how |
M:13.2 | It takes great learning both to realize and to accept the | fact that the world has nothing to give. What can the sacrifice of |

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 |

Tx:17.66 | with that. The error does not matter. Faithlessness brought to | faith will never interfere with truth. But faithlessness used |
Tx:17.66 | truth. But faithlessness used against truth will always destroy | faith. If you lack faith, ask that it be restored where it was lost |

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:17.75 | 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 | would interpose illusions between the Son of God and his Creator; | faith would remove all obstacles that seem to rise between them. |
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:19.10 | accepted the Atonement for yourself and would therefore share it. By | faith you offer the gift of freedom from the past, which you |
Tx:19.10 | self and his and seeing them as one. And in that one you see your | faith is fully justified. There is no justification for |
Tx:19.10 | fully justified. There is no justification for faithlessness, but | faith is always justified. |
Tx:19.11 | Faith is the opposite of fear, as much a part of love as fear is of | |
Tx:19.11 | the opposite of fear, as much a part of love as fear is of attack. | Faith is the acknowledgment of union. It is the gracious |
Tx:19.11 | Christ in him, and he was healed because you looked on what makes | faith forever justified in everyone. |
Tx:19.12 | Faith is the gift of God, through Him Whom God has given you. | |
Tx:19.12 | God and judges him unworthy of forgiveness. But through the eyes of | faith, the Son of God is seen already forgiven, free of all the |
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:19.12 | the Holy Spirit's perception and is the sign you share it with Him. | Faith is a gift you offer to the Son of God through Him, and wholly |
Tx:19.13 | Your holy relationship, with its new purpose, offers you | faith to give unto each other. Your faithlessness had driven you |
Tx:19.13 | you apart, and so you did not recognize salvation in each other. Yet | faith unites you in the holiness you see, not through the body's |
Tx:19.13 | And be you healed by grace together, that you may heal through | faith. |
Tx:19.14 | see the miracle of your relationship as it was made again through | faith. And there it is that you will realize that there is nothing |
Tx:19.14 | faith. And there it is that you will realize that there is nothing | faith cannot forgive. No error interferes with its calm sight, which |
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:19.15 | lovely what has already been prepared for loveliness. Truth follows | faith and peace, completing the process of making lovely which they |
Tx:19.15 | peace, completing the process of making lovely which they begin. For | faith is still a learning goal, no longer needed when the lesson has |
Tx:19.22 | a mistake, it must be brought to truth. It is impossible to have | faith in sin, for sin is faithlessness. Yet it is possible to |
Tx:19.22 | in sin, for sin is faithlessness. Yet it is possible to have | faith that a mistake can be corrected. |
Tx:19.35 | Heaven gave you. Forget what you have seen and raise your eyes in | faith to what you now can see. The barriers to heaven will |
Tx:19.48 | it is nothing in itself and stood for nothing when you had greater | faith in its protection. Would you not rather greet the summer sun |
Tx:19.69 | Faith in the eternal is always justified, for the eternal is forever | |
Tx:19.70 | never be apart from it. The body is the great seeming betrayer of | faith. In it lies disillusionment and the seeds of faithlessness, but |
Tx:19.70 | And the correction of your mistake will give you grounds for | faith. |
Tx:19.75 | has dedicated the body to the goal of sin and places in it all its | faith that this can be accomplished. Its sad disciples chant the |
Tx:19.97 | forgiveness of each other's illusions and through the eyes of | faith, which sees them not. |
Tx:19.98 | purpose given in a holy instant has led you. And let us join in | faith that He Who brought us here together will offer you the |
Tx:19.100 | and you do share in it until you look upon each other with perfect | faith and love and tenderness. Before complete forgiveness, you still |
Tx:19.101 | in madness or in Heaven together. And you will raise your eyes in | faith together or not at all. |
Tx:19.106 | Give each other | faith, for faith and hope and mercy are yours to give. Into the hands |
Tx:19.106 | Give each other faith, for | faith and hope and mercy are yours to give. Into the hands that give |
Tx:19.110 | one undertakes to do what he believes is meaningless. What you had | faith in still is faithful and watches over you in faith so gentle |
Tx:19.110 | What you had faith in still is faithful and watches over you in | faith so gentle yet so strong that it would lift you far beyond the |
Tx:20.12 | 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 will be |
Tx:20.27 | Share, then, this | faith with me and know that it is justified. There is no fear in |
Tx:20.42 | with means and end in perfect harmony already. Here is the perfect | faith that you will one day offer to each other already offered |
Tx:20.43 | the gift, and yet he knows it not. No more do you. And yet, have | faith that He Who sees the gift in both of you will offer and receive |
Tx:20.73 | and murder and destroy themselves, are wholly unreal? Could you have | faith in what you see if you accepted this? And would you see it? |
Tx:21.21 | you worship. And anything which threatens this seems to attack your | faith, for here is it invested. Think not that you are faithless, for |
Tx:21.22 | The Holy Spirit can give you | faith in holiness and vision to see it easily enough. But you have |
Tx:21.23 | is not your task, but it is up to you to welcome it or not. | Faith and desire go hand in hand, for everyone believes in what he |
Tx:21.24 | is no better demonstration of the power of wanting, and therefore of | faith, to make its goals seem real and possible. Faith in the unreal |
Tx:21.24 | and therefore of faith, to make its goals seem real and possible. | Faith in the unreal leads to adjustments of reality to make it fit |
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:21.30 | accepts. This it will follow, grimly or happily, but always with | faith and with the persistence that faith inevitably brings. The |
Tx:21.30 | or happily, but always with faith and with the persistence that | faith inevitably brings. The power of faith is never recognized if |
Tx:21.30 | and with the persistence that faith inevitably brings. The power of | faith is never recognized if it is placed in sin. But it is |
Tx:21.31 | Why is it strange to you that | faith can move mountains? This is indeed a little feat for such a |
Tx:21.31 | move mountains? This is indeed a little feat for such a power. For | faith can keep the Son of God in chains as long as he believes he |
Tx:21.31 | it will be simply because he no longer believes in them, withdrawing | faith that they can hold him and placing it in his freedom instead. |
Tx:21.31 | placing it in his freedom instead. It is impossible to place equal | faith in opposite directions. What faith you give to sin you take |
Tx:21.31 | It is impossible to place equal faith in opposite directions. What | faith you give to sin you take away from holiness. And what you |
Tx:21.32 | Faith and belief and vision are the means by which the goal of | |
Tx:21.32 | leads you to the real world and away from all illusions where your | faith was laid. This is His direction, the only one He ever sees. 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:21.32 | instead of yours, you will have need of them no longer. For | faith and vision and belief are meaningful only before the state of |
Tx:21.33 | It is impossible that the Son of God lack | faith, but he can choose where he would have it be. Faithlessness |
Tx:21.33 | choose where he would have it be. Faithlessness is not a lack of | faith, but faith in nothing. Faith given to illusions does not lack |
Tx:21.33 | he would have it be. Faithlessness is not a lack of faith, but | faith in nothing. Faith given to illusions does not lack power, for |
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:21.33 | that he is powerless. Thus is he faithless to himself, but strong in | faith in his illusions about himself. For faith, perception, and |
Tx:21.33 | himself, but strong in faith in his illusions about himself. For | faith, perception, and belief you made as means for losing |
Tx:21.33 | and finding sin. This mad direction was your choice, and by your | faith in what you chose, you made what you desired. |
Tx:21.34 | holy relationship is all you want to see. Then will you give your | faith to holiness, desiring and believing in it because of your |
Tx:21.35 | Faith and belief become attached to vision, as all the means that | |
Tx:21.35 | because the means for sin are dear to you. And so the body has your | faith and your belief. But holiness would set your brother free, |
Tx:21.36 | to look upon their brothers in holiness, the power of belief and | faith goes far beyond the body, supporting vision, not obstructing |
Tx:21.36 | not obstructing it. But first they chose to recognize how much their | faith had limited their understanding of the world, desiring to place |
Tx:21.36 | given them. The miracles which follow this decision are also born of | faith. For all who choose to look away from sin are given vision and |
Tx:21.37 | at hand. Join your awareness to what has been already joined. The | faith you give each other can accomplish this. For He Who loves the |
Tx:21.38 | Your | faith in sacrifice has given it great power in your sight, except you |
Tx:21.40 | light of vision, it is looked upon quite differently. You can have | faith in it to serve the Holy Spirit's goal and give it power to |
Tx:21.40 | to see. But in their seeing, they look past it, as do you. The | faith and the belief you gave it belongs beyond. You gave |
Tx:21.40 | you gave it belongs beyond. You gave perception and belief and | faith from mind to body. Let them now be given back to what produced |
Tx:21.41 | has no fear to let you feel ashamed. It doubts not your belief and | faith in sin. Its temples do not shake because of this. Your faith |
Tx:21.41 | and faith in sin. Its temples do not shake because of this. Your | faith that sin is there but witnesses to your desire that it be |
Tx:21.44 | to look on much of your insanity and recognize its madness. Your | faith is moving inward, past insanity and on to reason. And what your |
Tx:21.50 | For this will be your faith. But never believe because it is your | faith it makes reality. |
Tx:21.51 | your freedom lies awaiting but your choice. And if you place your | faith in them, you will perceive another Self in you. This other Self |
Tx:21.56 | Faith and perception and belief can be misplaced and serve the great | |
Tx:21.56 | no place at all in madness, nor can it be adjusted to fit its end. | Faith and belief are strong in madness, guiding perception toward |
Tx:21.58 | You have come very close to this. | Faith and belief have shifted, and you have asked the question which |
Tx:21.58 | come from something that you do not know but must belong to you? | Faith and belief, upheld by reason, cannot fail to lead to changed |
Tx:21.74 | Yet hate must have a target. There can be no | faith in sin without an enemy. Who that believes in sin would dare |
Tx:22.4 | can teach! Here is belief in differences undone. Here is the | faith in differences shifted to sameness. [And here is sight of |
Tx:22.5 | You can indeed believe this, and you do. And you have | faith in this and see much evidence on its behalf. And where, you |
Tx:22.7 | at all. Think, then, what happened. Denying what you are and firm in | faith that you are something else, this “something else” which you |
Tx:22.15 | protected from attack. And here can He return in confidence, for | faith in one another is always faith in Him. You are indeed correct |
Tx:22.15 | here can He return in confidence, for faith in one another is always | faith in Him. You are indeed correct in looking on each other as His |

Tx:22.21 | they can be used. And through their use will you gain | faith in them. Yet to the ego this must be impossible, and no one |
Tx:22.21 | is no point in trying to avoid this one decision. It must be made. | Faith and belief can fall to either side, but reason tells you that |
Tx:22.41 | you come among them, offering Christ's forgiveness to dispel their | faith in sin. |
Tx:22.59 | by Him Who knows the light and lays it gently in each quiet smile of | faith and confidence with which you bless each other. |
Tx:23.38 | of the beliefs that they imply, not for their form. And lack of | faith in love in any form attests to chaos as reality. |
Tx:23.39 | From the belief in sin, the | faith in chaos must follow. It is because it follows that it seems |
Tx:23.46 | will shelter you. Not one illusion of protection stands against the | faith in murder. Here stands the body, torn between the natural |
Tx:24.5 | cherished as a hidden belief, to be defended though unrecognized, is | faith in specialness. This takes many forms but always clashes with |
Tx:24.34 | Specialness is a lack of trust in anyone except yourself. | Faith is invested in yourself alone. Everything else becomes your |
Tx:24.40 | for you. Nor is it possible that you can wish for something and lack | faith that it is so. Wishing makes real, as surely as does will |
Tx:25.55 | that everything that meets this one demand is worthy of your | faith. But nothing else. What is not love is sin, and either one |
Tx:25.61 | Here is sanity restored. And on this single rock of truth can | faith in God's eternal saneness rest in perfect confidence and |
Tx:25.64 | is the only principle salvation needs. Nor is it necessary that your | faith in it be strong, unswerving, and without attack from all |
Tx:25.64 | one divided still against himself would find impossible. Have little | faith that wisdom could be found in such a state of mind. But be you |
Tx:25.64 | found in such a state of mind. But be you thankful that only little | faith is asked of you. What but a little faith remains to those |
Tx:25.64 | that only little faith is asked of you. What but a little | faith remains to those who still believe in sin? What could they know |
Tx:27.3 | of yourself you offer him you show yourself and give it all your | faith. The Holy Spirit offers you to give to him a picture of |
Tx:28.40 | him acknowledge who he is by not supporting his illusions by your | faith, for if you do, you will have faith in yours. With faith in |
Tx:28.40 | supporting his illusions by your faith, for if you do, you will have | faith in yours. With faith in yours, he will not be released, and |
Tx:28.40 | by your faith, for if you do, you will have faith in yours. With | faith in yours, he will not be released, and you are kept in |
Tx:30.76 | within and find escape from every idol there. Salvation rests on | faith there cannot be some forms of guilt which you cannot forgive. |

Tx:8.73 | It is hard to perceive sickness as a | false witness, because you do not realize that it is entirely out |

W1:152.9 | Today we practice true humility, abandoning the | false pretense by which the ego seeks to prove it arrogant. Only the |
W1:152.11 | well that all self-concepts have been laid aside and recognized as | false. Their arrogance has been perceived. And in humility the |

W1:161.5 | needs no symbols, being true. But fear attaches to specifics, being | false. |
W1:163.6 | one thought entirely cannot be true unless its opposite is proven | false. |
W1:167.9 | power which it does not have, a foreign state it cannot enter, or a | false condition not within its Source, it merely seems to go to sleep |
W1:170.3 | inescapable. Lay down your arms, and only then do you perceive it | false. |

W1:190.1 | Can such projections be attested to? Can they be anything but wholly | false? |
W1:200.3 | To ask for what you have already must succeed. To ask that what is | false be true can only fail. Forgive yourself for vain imaginings, |
W1:200.10 | further. You have come to where the road is carpeted with leaves of | false desires, fallen from the trees of hopelessness you sought |
W2:WF.1 | And in this view are all your sins forgiven. What is sin except a | false idea about God's Son? Forgiveness merely sees its falsity and |
W2:228.1 | makes impossible? Shall I accept as true what He proclaims as | false? Or shall I take His Word for what I am since He is my Creator |
W2:239.1 | Let not the truth about ourselves today be hidden by a | false humility. Let us instead be thankful for the gifts our Father |
W2:WIW.1 | The world is | false perception. It is born of error, and it has not left its |

T1:7.2 | rather than a punishment, but it still, in its acceptance of a | false notion, invites suffering. This belief accepts learning through |

Tx:4.1 | The Bible says that you should go with a brother twice as | far as he asks. It certainly does not suggest that you set him back |

Tx:4.19 | of Heaven is the right of the Soul, whose beauty and dignity are | far beyond doubt, beyond perception, and stand forever as the mark of |
Tx:4.21 | devoted teachers who share my aim of healing the mind. The Soul is | far beyond the need of your protection or mine. Remember this: |
Tx:4.37 | and not validity. “Reliable behavior” is a meaningful perception as | far as ego thinking goes. However, “valid behavior” is an expression |

Tx:4.95 | imply being. The ego is thus against communication except in so | far as it is utilized to establish separateness rather than to |
Tx:6.33 | guarantee their ultimate meeting. This convergence seems to be | far in the future only because your mind is not in perfect alignment |
Tx:6.86 | there is something you must be vigilant against. It has advanced | far from the first lesson, which was primarily a reversal and also |
Tx:8.36 | nothing, but together our wills fuse into something whose power is | far beyond the power of its separate parts. By not being separate, |
Tx:9.20 | The ego's plan for forgiveness is | far more widely used than God's. This is because it is undertaken by |
Tx:9.38 | to obtain it. Your brothers are everywhere. You do not have to seek | far for salvation. Every minute and every second gives you a chance |
Tx:10.19 | Holy Spirit, whose message is wholeness. He will enable you to go | far beyond the healing you would undertake, for beside your small |
Tx:10.20 | trust His patience, for He cannot leave a part of God. Yet you need | far more than patience. |
Tx:11.77 | The Father has hidden His Son safely within Himself and kept him | far away from your destructive thoughts, but you know neither the |
Tx:11.78 | perfect peace, and needing nothing, he asks for nothing. Yet he is | far from you whose Self he is, for you chose to attack him, and he |
Tx:13.7 | and who are seeking you and where to find them. Knowledge is | far beyond your individual concern. You, who are part of it and all |
Tx:15.2 | takes time, and that the results of the Holy Spirit's teaching are | far in the future. This is not so. For the Holy Spirit uses time in |

Tx:15.7 | insistence that the past and future be the same is hidden a | far more insidious threat to peace. The ego does not advertise its |
Tx:15.12 | salvation? He asks no more, for He has no need of more. It takes | far longer to teach you how to be willing to give Him this than for |
Tx:15.16 | when all the obstacles to learning it have been removed? Truth is so | far beyond time that all of it happens at once. For as it was created |

Tx:16.65 | The period of disorientation which precedes the actual transition is | far shorter than the time it took to fix your minds so firmly on |

Tx:17.57 | you can more safely look beyond each situation in an understanding | far broader than you now possess. |
Tx:17.70 | set in you in whom the Holy Spirit's goal has been established is so | far beyond your little conception of the infinite that you have no |

Tx:25.71 | your confusion you have much to give? You are not asked to trust Him | far. No further than what you see He offers you and what you |

Tx:26.58 | Here does the Son of God ask not too much but | far too little. He would sacrifice his own identity with everything |
Tx:27.18 | before the ancient clarion call of life. This call has power | far beyond the weak and miserable cry of death and guilt. The ancient |
Tx:27.53 | multiplied effects. Yet all the witnesses that you behold will be | far less than all there really are. Infinity cannot be understood by |

Tx:9.97 | you need be troubled by nothing. Your gods are nothing, because your | Father did not create them. You cannot make creators who are unlike |
Tx:9.99 | Your | Father has not denied you. He does not retaliate, but He does call |
Tx:9.101 | punished otherwise. It is merely because your acknowledgment of your | Father is the acknowledgment of yourself as you are. Your Father |
Tx:9.101 | of your Father is the acknowledgment of yourself as you are. Your | Father created you wholly without sin, wholly without pain, and |
Tx:9.103 | created for him and what he himself had created in the Name of his | Father. Heaven waits for his return, for it was created as the |
Tx:10.4 | you will also have looked upon ours. I come to you from our | Father to offer you everything again. Do not refuse it in order to |
Tx:10.4 | You will not take this journey alone. I will lead you to your true | Father, Who hath need of you as I have. Will you not answer the call |
Tx:10.6 | from the universe or from God, Who is the universe? I and my | Father are one with you, for you are part of us. Do you really |
Tx:10.11 | on your willingness to give as He gives. Your fatherhood and your | Father are one. God willed to create, and your will is His. It |
Tx:10.13 | for himself. God's Son cannot will death for himself because His | Father is Life and His Son is like Him. Creation is your will |
Tx:10.15 | knowing. Blessed are you who learn that to hear the Will of your | Father is to know your own. For it is your will to be like Him, |
Tx:10.16 | every healing thought brings it closer. The Son of God has both | Father and Son because he is both Father and Son. To unite having |
Tx:10.16 | The Son of God has both Father and Son because he is both | Father and Son. To unite having and being is only to unite your will |
Tx:10.27 | so great that it can sweep you out of all darkness forever. For your | Father is your Creator, and you are like Him. |
Tx:10.30 | of the Son can be excluded if he would know the Wholeness of his | Father. In your mind, you can accept the whole Sonship and bless it |
Tx:10.30 | you can accept the whole Sonship and bless it with the light your | Father gave it. Then you will be worthy to dwell in the temple with |
Tx:10.32 | God homeless and know that you are at home? Can the Son deny the | Father without believing that the Father has denied him? God's |
Tx:10.32 | at home? Can the Son deny the Father without believing that the | Father has denied him? God's laws hold only for your protection, |
Tx:10.32 | and they never hold in vain. What you experience when you deny your | Father is still for your protection, for the power of your will |
Tx:10.35 | his voice in praise of his Creator, he will hear the Voice of his | Father. Yet the Creator cannot be praised without His Son, for |
Tx:10.36 | you be. But love yourself with the love of Christ, for so does your | Father love you. You can refuse to enter, but you cannot bar the |
Tx:10.38 | Blessed is the Son of God, whose radiance is of his | Father and whose glory he wills to share as his Father shares it with |
Tx:10.38 | radiance is of his Father and whose glory he wills to share as his | Father shares it with him. There is no condemnation in the Son, for |
Tx:10.38 | is no condemnation in the Son, for there is no condemnation in the | Father. Sharing the perfect love of the Father, the Son must share |
Tx:10.38 | is no condemnation in the Father. Sharing the perfect love of the | Father, the Son must share what belongs to Him, for otherwise he will |
Tx:10.38 | must share what belongs to Him, for otherwise he will not know the | Father or the Son. Peace be unto you who rest in God and in whom |
Tx:10.56 | but hardly to what it has denied! The ego looks straight at the | Father and does not see Him, for it has denied His Son. |
Tx:10.57 | Would you remember the | Father? Accept His Son, and you will remember Him. Nothing can |
Tx:10.57 | demonstration that His Son does not exist, yet where the Son is, the | Father must be. Accept what God does not deny, and He will |
Tx:10.57 | demonstrate nothing, for Christ speaks to them of Himself and of His | Father. They are silent because Christ speaks to them, and it is His |
Tx:10.59 | does rise above the ego and all its works and ascends to the | Father and His Kingdom. |
Tx:10.60 | or free them? Would you transcend your prison and ascend to the | Father? For these questions are all the same and are answered |
Tx:10.62 | what has been accomplished for you. For we ascend unto the | Father together, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall |
Tx:10.62 | now, and ever shall be, for such is the nature of God's Son as His | Father created him. |
Tx:10.64 | him without question as His own. Who, then, is your own? The | Father has given you all that is His, and He Himself is yours with |
Tx:10.68 | things are possible. And to Christ it is given to be like the | Father. |
Tx:10.69 | The world as you perceive it cannot have been created by the | Father, for the world is not as you see it. God created only the |
Tx:10.70 | eternal because they are loving. And being loving, they are like the | Father and therefore cannot die. The real world can actually be |
Tx:10.71 | establish your personal autonomy, you tried to create unlike your | Father, believing what you made to be capable of being unlike Him. |
Tx:10.82 | deprivation. Little Children of God, you do not understand your | Father. You believe in a world that takes, because you believe that |
Tx:10.83 | give to anyone who asks it of him. Ask anything of God's Son and His | Father will answer you, for Christ is not deceived in His Father, and |
Tx:10.83 | and His Father will answer you, for Christ is not deceived in His | Father, and His Father is not deceived in Him. |
Tx:10.83 | will answer you, for Christ is not deceived in His Father, and His | Father is not deceived in Him. |
Tx:10.84 | that his mind is split, you will heal yours. Accept him as his | Father accepts him and heal him unto Christ, for Christ is his |
Tx:10.84 | yours. Christ is the Son of God, who is in no way separate from His | Father, whose every thought is as loving as the Thought of His |
Tx:10.84 | His Father, whose every thought is as loving as the Thought of His | Father by which He was created. Be not deceived in God's Son, for |
Tx:10.84 | yourself. And being deceived in yourself, you are deceived in your | Father in Whom no deceit is possible. |
Tx:10.86 | deceived in God's Son, for he is one with himself and one with his | Father. Love him who is beloved of His Father, and you will learn of |
Tx:10.86 | with himself and one with his Father. Love him who is beloved of His | Father, and you will learn of the Father's love for you. |
Tx:10.88 | own fear. You, my children, are afraid of your brothers and of your | Father and of yourselves. But you are merely deceived in them. |
Tx:10.89 | are frightened. It is not the reality of your brothers or your | Father or yourself which frightens you. You do not know what they |
Tx:10.90 | real world in place of the false one you have made. And then your | Father will lean down to you and take the last step for you by |
Tx:11.7 | for the help of God, and you will recognize your own need for the | Father. |
Tx:11.8 | you answer in the name of Christ brings the remembrance of your | Father closer to your awareness. For the sake of your need, then, |
Tx:11.16 | what he really wants is to offer it unto yourself, for your | Father wills you to know your brother as yourself. Answer his |
Tx:11.16 | love and yours is answered. Healing is the love of Christ for His | Father and for Himself. |
Tx:11.19 | way of love, for nothing can withstand the love of Christ for His | Father or His Father's love for Him. |
Tx:11.20 | my help, for I did not walk alone, and I will walk with you as our | Father walked with me. Did you not know that I walked with Him in |
Tx:11.33 | You were willing to accept even death to deny your | Father. Yet He would not have it so, and so it is not so. You still |
Tx:11.39 | He will never deceive God's Son, whom He loves with the love of the | Father. |
Tx:11.41 | Behold the Guide your | Father gave you that you might learn you have eternal life. For death |
Tx:11.41 | Father's Will nor yours, and whatever is true is the Will of the | Father. You pay no price for life, for that was given you, but you |
Tx:11.54 | Remembering you always, He cannot let you forget your worth. For the | Father never ceases to remind Him of His Son, and He never ceases to |
Tx:11.54 | remind Him of His Son, and He never ceases to remind His Son of the | Father. God is in your memory because of Him. You chose to forget |
Tx:11.54 | God is in your memory because of Him. You chose to forget your | Father, but you did not will to do so, and therefore you can decide |
Tx:11.57 | you the real world because God gave you Heaven. Through Him your | Father calls His Son to remember. The awakening of His Son begins |
Tx:11.57 | he will learn to reinvest in himself. For reality is one with the | Father and the Son, and the Holy Spirit blesses the real world in |
Tx:11.58 | blessing. For the Holy Spirit will lead everyone home to his | Father, where Christ waits as his Self. |
Tx:11.59 | as Christ's is in God. Christ's love for you is His love for His | Father, which He knows because He knows His Father's love for Him. |
Tx:11.59 | the Holy Spirit has at last led you to Christ at the altar to His | Father, perception fuses into knowledge because perception has become |
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:11.71 | of the mind which created us. For we are there in the peace of the | Father, Who wills to project His peace through you. |
Tx:11.75 | a traitor to you who believe you have been treacherous to your | Father. That is why the undoing of guilt is an essential part of |
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:11.85 | denial but to hold on to it. For it is guilt that has obscured the | Father to you, and it is guilt that has driven you insane. |
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:11.92 | God has set himself is foolish indeed, but the journey on which his | Father sets him is one of release and joy. The Father is not cruel, |
Tx:11.92 | journey on which his Father sets him is one of release and joy. The | Father is not cruel, and His Son cannot hurt himself. The |
Tx:11.93 | judge him not, for his eternal guiltlessness is in the mind of his | Father, and protects him forever. |
Tx:11.94 | have always followed him, for he has always extended the love of his | Father. |
Tx:11.95 | awakening. The Son of God, who sleepeth not, has kept faith with his | Father for you. There is no road to travel on and no time to travel |
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:12.18 | In that place which you have hidden, you will only to unite with the | Father in loving remembrance of Him. You will find this place of |
Tx:12.19 | Save him from his illusions that you may accept the magnitude of your | Father in peace and joy. But exempt no one from your love, or 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:12.44 | they are. Because they saw the Son, they have risen in Him to the | Father. And all this will they understand because they looked within |
Tx:12.52 | shines forth from God's Son is the witness that his light is of his | Father. |
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:26.63 | wills for him. Yet every instant offers life to him because his | Father wills that he should live. |
Tx:26.64 | be forever. For you have power to save the Son of God because his | Father willed that it be so. And in your hands does all salvation |
Tx:26.84 | an ancient enmity that came to kill. In gentle gratitude do God the | Father and the Son return to what is Theirs and will forever be. Now |
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:27.1 | occur at all, it would entail the whole of God's creation and the | Father with the sacrifice of his beloved Son. |
Tx:27.18 | and miserable cry of death and guilt. The ancient calling of the | Father to His Son, and of the Son unto his own, will yet be the last |
Tx:27.73 | Son and made him think that he has lost his innocence, denied his | Father, and made war upon himself. So fearful is the dream, so |
Tx:27.76 | He represents his | Father, Whom you see as offering both life and death to you. Brother, |
Tx:27.76 | see as gifts your brother offers represent the gifts you dream your | Father gives to you. Let all your brother's gifts be seen in light of |
Tx:28.15 | where he can glimpse another shore which he can never reach. His | Father wills that he be lifted up and gently carried over. He has |
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:28.46 | dreams but join with him, and where you join His Son, the | Father is. Who seeks for substitutes when he perceives he has lost |
Tx:28.59 | God keeps His promises; His Son keeps his. In his creation did his | Father say, “You are beloved of Me and I of you forever. Be you |
Tx:28.60 | something he has not. A space where God is not, a gap between the | Father and the Son is not the will of either, who have promised to be |
Tx:28.66 | health, upon his happiness, his sinlessness, and everything his | Father promised him. No secret promise you have made instead has |
Tx:29.21 | Think you the | Father lost Himself when He created you? Was He made weak because He |
Tx:29.24 | gratitude and love. He is himself, but not himself alone. And as his | Father lost not part of Him in your creation, so the light in him is |
Tx:29.31 | still no sound except a hymn to Heaven rises up to gladden God the | Father and the Son. Where both abide are They remembered both. And |
Tx:29.34 | There is no gift the | Father asks of you but that you see in all creation but the shining |
Tx:29.34 | of His gift to you. Behold His Son, His perfect gift in whom his | Father shines forever and to whom is all creation given as his own. |
Tx:29.35 | house. Would you not want to be a friend to him, created by his | Father as His home? If God esteems him worthy of Himself, would you |
Tx:29.39 | cannot keep. The Son of Life cannot be killed. He is immortal as his | Father. What he is cannot be changed. He is the only thing in all the |
Tx:29.51 | chants of deep despair to idols of yourself. Seek not outside your | Father for your hope. For hope of happiness is not despair. |
Tx:29.57 | chaos, and the Son of God, as perfect, sinless and as loving as his | Father, come to hate a little while, to suffer pain, and finally to |
Tx:30.46 | Who knows the | Father knows this light, for He is the eternal sky which holds it |
Tx:30.48 | The mind of Heaven's Son in Heaven is, for there the mind of | Father and Son joined in creation which can have no end. You have not |
Tx:30.60 | be himself, and to remember that the Son of God knows everything his | Father understands and understands it perfectly with Him. |
Tx:30.63 | Whose hand they hold. The face of Christ is looked upon before the | Father is remembered. For He must be unremembered till His Son has |
Tx:30.79 | I thank you, | Father, for your perfect Son, and in his glory will I see my own. |
Tx:30.81 | a graven image and a sign of death. Is this your savior? Is his | Father wrong about His Son? Or have you been deceived in him who |
Tx:31.24 | love each other with a brother's love. And as a brother, must his | Father be the same as yours, as he is like yourself. |
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 |
Tx:31.95 | I thank You, | Father, for these holy ones who are my brothers as they are Your |
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 |

W2:318.2 | Let me today, my | Father, take the role You offer me in Your request that I accept |
W2:320.1 | no limits on his strength, his peace, his joy, or any attributes his | Father gave in his creation. What he wills with his Creator and |
W2:320.1 | Redeemer must be done. His holy will can never be denied because his | Father shines upon his mind and lays before it all the strength and |
W2:WICR.5 | Our | Father calls to us. We hear His Voice, and we forgive creation in the |
W2:321.1 | made me free nor what my freedom is nor where to look to find it. | Father, I have searched in vain until I heard Your Voice directing |
W2:321.1 | directs me. And the way to You is opening and clear to me at last. | Father, my freedom is in You alone. Father, it is my will that I |
W2:321.1 | opening and clear to me at last. Father, my freedom is in You alone. | Father, it is my will that I return. |
W2:321.2 | us. How glad are we to find our freedom through the certain way our | Father has established. And how sure is all the world's salvation |
W2:325.2 | Our | Father, Your Ideas reflect the truth, and mine apart from Yours but |
W2:328.1 | is sickness, suffering and loss, and death. This is not what our | Father wills for us, nor is there any second to His Will. To join |
W2:328.2 | eternally at peace. And happily I share that will which You, my | Father, gave as part of me. |
W2:329.1 | for all eternity. It cannot change and be in opposition to itself. | Father, my will is Yours. And I am safe, untroubled and serene in |
W2:331.1 | How foolish, | Father, to believe Your Son could cause himself to suffer! Could he |
W2:331.1 | and be left without a certain way to his release? You love me, | Father. You could never leave me desolate, to die within a world of |
W2:332.2 | 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 given |
W2:334.1 | I will not wait another day to find the treasures which my | Father offers me. Illusions must be vain and dreams are gone, even |
W2:336.2 | wipe away my dreams of separation and of sin. Then let me, | Father, look within and find Your promise of my sinlessness is kept; |
W2:337.1 | mine, to feel God's Love protecting me from harm, to understand my | Father loves His Son, to know I am the Son my Father loves. |
W2:337.1 | harm, to understand my Father loves His Son, to know I am the Son my | Father loves. |
W2:337.2 | mistaken when I thought I sinned, but I accept Atonement for myself. | Father, my dream is ended now. Amen. |
W2:338.2 | Your plan is sure, my | Father—only Yours. All other plans will fail. And I will have |
W2:340.1 | and be free forever from all suffering. Thanks for today, my | Father. I was born into this world but to achieve this day and what |
W2:340.2 | Be glad! There is no room for anything but joy and thanks today. Our | Father has redeemed His Son this day! Not one of us but will be saved |
W2:340.2 | will be saved today. Not one who will remain in fear, and none the | Father will not gather to Himself, awake in Heaven in the Heart of |
W2:342.1 | I thank You, | Father, for Your plan to save me from the hell I made. It is not |
W2:344.1 | This is Your law, my | Father, not my own. I have not understood what giving means and |
W2:345.1 | in just the form I need to help me with the problems I perceive. | Father, in Heaven it is different, for there, there are no needs. But |
W2:347.1 | will and do not want what is my will to have. Straighten my mind, my | Father. It is sick. But You have offered freedom, and I choose to |
W2:349.1 | be given me because I have chosen it as the gift I want to give. | Father, Your gifts are mine. Each one that I accept gives me a |
W2:349.2 | Our | Father knows our needs. He gives us grace to meet them all. And so we |
W2:350.1 | But what he looks upon is their direct result. Therefore, my | Father, I would turn to You. Only Your memory will set me free. And |
W2:351.1 | beside me, and my way secure and clear. Choose, then, for me, my | Father, through Your Voice. For He alone gives judgment in Your Name. |
W2:352.1 | I have within me both the memory of You and One Who leads me to it. | Father, I would hear Your Voice and find Your peace today. For I |
W2:354.1 | the Christ in me. I have no purpose but His own. And He is like His | Father. Thus must I be one with You as well as Him. For who is Christ |
W2:355.1 | Why should I wait, my | Father, for the joy You promised me? For You will keep Your Word You |
W2:355.1 | along with You. Your Son would be Himself and know You as his | Father and Creator and his Love. |
W2:358.1 | for me. And what You give me comes from God Himself. Your Voice, my | Father, then is mine as well, and all I want is what You offer me, in |
W2:FL.5 | We will not end this year without the gift our | Father promised to His holy Son. We are forgiven now. And we are |

M:23.5 | he sees in it an image of his Father. You become the symbol of his | Father here on earth. To you he looks for hope, because in you he |

C:8.24 | of the truth of God's creation and your desire to create like your | Father. It is the best, in your forgetfulness, that you could do; but |
C:9.34 | know. In this scenario God is like unto your banker rather than your | Father. You would prove to God that you can “make a go of it” before |
C:11.12 | While you could have used your free will to create like unto your | Father, by choosing to make yourself separate from Him—something |
C:11.13 | your mind about its need to be fought is what is desired by your | Father and this Course. |
C:12.15 | one mind, the mind of God's son joined in unity with that of his | Father. Many of you have been taught this mystery of faith. Father, |
C:12.15 | of his Father. Many of you have been taught this mystery of faith. | Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are One. If you had indeed learned what |
C:12.16 | These words, | Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, like the word love, are but symbols |
C:12.16 | representing ideas that represent what is. That you have made of the | Father a singular figure, somehow greater than the Son, and accepted |
C:12.21 | The | Father did not prevent the idea of separation from taking place, and |
C:12.24 | that is truly real within it. The son could not create unlike the | Father who created everything by extension of Himself. Neither the |
C:12.24 | of Himself. Neither the Father's extension, nor the Son's, lessened | Father or Son in any way. Replace the word Father with the word |
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 |
C:12.24 | make less of it than what it started out to be? What we call | Father is but creation's heavenly face, a personification of what |
C:12.25 | to division, and these word symbols are all that seem to separate | Father, Son, and Holy Spirit from Creation or from each other. |
C:13.12 | —and when memory of forgiveness returns to you, can memory of your | Father or your own Self be far behind? |
C:15.9 | you would call an act of treachery. To give your allegiance to your | Father and to the learning goals this Course has set is but an act of |
C:15.12 | choose for you. For in his choice you join with him and with your | Father. In this choice lies one united will for glory that knows |
C:20.32 | of your God-given authority via your free will. When I beseeched my | Father, saying, “They know not what they do,” I was expressing the |
C:26.26 | you are. When this occurs you are All in All, One in being with your | Father. |
C:27.1 | death as the only means by which to reach oneness with your | Father, knowing that such oneness is not compatible with the human |
C:30.1 | fully aware of your own being, you would be in oneness with Your | Father. |

C:32.2 | return you to the Source, which is Love. The difference between | Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is but the same difference of which we |
T2:13.4 | you and you will realize that we are truly one in being with our | Father. As you move into the world with the end of the time of |
T4:4.5 | of passing as well as an idea of continuity. What belonged to the | Father passed to the son and thereafter belonged to the son. What was |
T4:4.5 | to the son and thereafter belonged to the son. What was of the | Father continued with the son. |
T4:4.6 | and resurrection revealed the power of inheritance, the power of the | Father, as one of life-giving union. I called you then and I call you |

D:Day32.19 | know itself without relationship. You are one in being with your | Father, with God, with the Creator and with all of creation. You are |
D:Day36.11 | being and God in relationship. This is the example that the ideas of | Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as a trinity representing one God were |
D:Day36.11 | God. The Holy Spirit could only be God in relationship to God. The | Father could only be God in relationship to God. God could only be |
D:Day36.11 | could only be God in relationship to God. God could only be the | Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in relationship. Without relationship, |

Tx:22.15 | home, for here you will with Him and with His Father. This is your | Father's Will for you, and yours with His. And who is drawn to Christ |
Tx:22.24 | before. Only if it were possible the Son of God could leave his | Father's Mind, make himself different, and oppose His Will, would it |
Tx:23.11 | to teach the Son of God that he is not himself and not his | Father's Son. For this, the memory of his Father must be forgotten. |
Tx:23.54 | Think what is given those who share their | Father's purpose and who know that it is theirs! They want for |
Tx:24.72 | outside yourself, your own beloved son. The other rests within, His | Father's Son, within your brother as he is in you. Their difference |
Tx:24.72 | all aspects with a different purpose. The Son of God retains His | Father's Will. The son of man perceives an alien will and wishes it |
Tx:25.8 | abides within your understanding in the part of you that shares His | Father's Will. The Holy Spirit links the other part, the tiny mad |

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:25.62 | Son of God. He cannot lose, for if he could, the loss would be his | Father's, and in Him no loss is possible. And this is sane because |
Tx:26.8 | Could it be that you could make his sins reality and sacrifice his | Father's Will for him? |
Tx:26.17 | and locked will merely fall away and disappear. For it is not your | Father's Will that you should offer or receive less than He gave when |
Tx:26.28 | and none is cherished more than any other. Each reminds him of His | Father's love as surely as the rest. And each one teaches him that |
Tx:26.39 | God's Son entered an instant, to be instantly restored unto His | Father's perfect Love. And how can he be kept in chains long since |

Tx:1.39 | 29. Miracles are a way of earning release from | fear. |
Tx:1.40 | Revelation induces a state in which | fear has already been abolished. Miracles are thus a means, and |
Tx:1.40 | learning, working miracles is more important, because freedom from | fear cannot be thrust upon you. |
Tx:1.53 | all errors in this respect and thus uproots the real source of | fear. Whenever God's reassurances are experienced as threat, it is |
Tx:1.65 | The emptiness engendered by | fear should be replaced by love, because love and its absence are in |

Tx:2.4 | before the real meaning of the separation, or the “detour into | fear,” can be fully understood. |
Tx:2.15 | All | fear is ultimately reducible to the basic misperception that man has |
Tx:2.15 | this. In this fact lies the real justification for his escape from | fear. The escape is brought about by his acceptance of the Atonement, |
Tx:2.43 | disrupted, there is a period of real disorientation accompanied by | fear, guilt, and usually vacillations between anxiety and depression. |
Tx:2.46 | of the mind. Before the separation, the mind was invulnerable to | fear because fear did not exist. Both the separation and the fear |
Tx:2.46 | Before the separation, the mind was invulnerable to fear because | fear did not exist. Both the separation and the fear are |
Tx:2.46 | to fear because fear did not exist. Both the separation and the | fear are miscreations of the mind which must be undone. This is what |
Tx:2.52 | is irrelevant. Essentially, all healing is the release from | fear. To undertake this, you cannot be fearful yourself. You do not |
Tx:2.52 | yourself. You do not understand healing because of your own | fear. |
Tx:2.58 | that can help the non-right-minded, or the sick, is an increase in | fear. They are already in a fear-weakened state. If they are |
Tx:2.59 | expressed in a language which the recipient can understand without | fear. It does not follow by any means that this is the highest level |
Tx:2.60 | can be limited to the body. This was because of the much greater | fear that the mind can hurt itself. Neither error is really |
Tx:2.62 | any healing they might induce and, because egocentricity and | fear usually occur together, may be unable to accept the real Source |
Tx:2.64 | propensities are not functioning properly, it is always because | fear has intruded on your right-mindedness and has literally upset it |
Tx:2.67 | from the belief in physical sight. The reason this so often entails | fear is because man is afraid of what his Spiritual eye will see. We |
Tx:2.68 | Nothing the Spiritual eye perceives can induce | fear. Everything that results from accurate spiritual awareness is |
Tx:2.69 | The | fear of healing arises, in the end, from an unwillingness to accept |
Tx:2.72 | Christ-guidance can direct everything that does if you so choose. | Fear cannot be Christ-controlled, but it can be self-controlled. It |
Tx:2.73 | The reason I cannot control | fear for you is that you are attempting to raise to the mind level |
Tx:2.75 | at the symptom level, where it cannot work. The correction of | fear is your responsibility. When you ask for release from fear, |
Tx:2.75 | of fear is your responsibility. When you ask for release from | fear, you are implying that it is not. You should ask instead for |
Tx:2.75 | should ask instead for help in the conditions which have brought the | fear about. These conditions always entail a separated mind |
Tx:2.75 | in accord with mine. If you are sure that it is, there will be no | fear. |
Tx:2.76 | Fear is always a sign of strain, which arises whenever the will to | |
Tx:2.80 | Remember that whenever there is | fear, it is because you have not made up your mind. Your will is |
Tx:2.80 | second type of strain described above but will not obliterate the | fear. It is possible to reach a state in which you bring your will |
Tx:2.81 | repeat it, urging you to listen. Only your mind can produce | fear. It does so whenever it is conflicted in what it wills, thus |
Tx:2.82 | first corrective step is know first that this is an expression of | fear. Then say to yourself that you must somehow have willed not to |
Tx:2.82 | to yourself that you must somehow have willed not to love, or the | fear which arises from behavior-will conflict could not have arisen. |
Tx:2.83 | 1. Know first that this is | fear. |
Tx:2.84 | 2. | Fear arises from lack of love. |
Tx:2.87 | However, as soon as you remedy it, you have also abolished the | fear. This is how true healing occurs. |
Tx:2.88 | Everyone experiences | fear, and no one enjoys it. Yet it would take very little |
Tx:2.88 | it. Yet it would take very little right-thinking to realize why | fear occurs. Very few people appreciate the real power of the mind, |
Tx:2.88 | of it all the time. However, if anyone hopes to spare himself from | fear, there are some things he must realize and realize fully. The |
Tx:2.91 | behave contrary to it. He thus chooses only between homicide and | fear. The other possibility is that he depreciates the power of his |
Tx:2.93 | You who constantly complain about | fear still persist in creating it. I told you before that you cannot |
Tx:2.93 | it. I told you before that you cannot ask me to release you from | fear because I know it does not exist, but you do not. If I |

Tx:2.95 | cannot free the miracle worker from fear.] Both miracles and | fear come from thoughts, and if you were not free to choose one, you |
Tx:2.95 | to choose the other. By choosing the miracle, you have rejected | fear. You have been afraid of God, of me, of yourselves, and of |
Tx:2.96 | mind. This may well frighten you because it is the source of | fear. The unwatched mind is responsible for the whole content of the |
Tx:2.96 | contributes. This is the level at which he can readily introduce | fear and usually does. |
Tx:2.97 | of this difference, the basic conflict is one between love and | fear. |
Tx:2.98 | It has already been said that man believes he cannot control | fear because he himself created it. His belief in it seems to render |
Tx:2.98 | to resolve the basic conflict through the concept of mastery of | fear is meaningless. In fact it asserts the power of fear by the |
Tx:2.98 | mastery of fear is meaningless. In fact it asserts the power of | fear by the simple assumption that it need be mastered. The |
Tx:2.99 | one is believed in, the other has been denied. In the conflict | fear is really nothing, and love is everything. This is because |
Tx:2.104 | We have already attempted to correct the fundamental error that | fear can be mastered and have emphasized that only love can be |
Tx:2.107 | is essential, however, that these individuals free themselves from | fear sooner than would ordinarily be the case because they must |
Tx:2.111 | No one who lives in | fear is really alive. His own last judgment cannot be directed toward |
Tx:2.111 | When everything he retains is loveable, there is no reason for | fear to remain with him. This is his part in the Atonement. |
Tx:3.2 | a solid foundation is necessary is because of the confusion between | fear and awe to which we have already referred and which so many |
Tx:3.3 | these steps without careful preparation or awe will be confused with | fear, and the experience will be more traumatic than beatific. |
Tx:3.11 | is another point which must be perfectly clear before any residual | fear which may still be associated with miracles becomes entirely |
Tx:3.21 | Sacrifice is a notion totally unknown to God. It arises solely from | fear. This is particularly unfortunate because frightened people are |
Tx:3.30 | is an attribute of the space-time belief and is therefore subject to | fear or love. Misperceptions produce fear, and true perceptions |
Tx:3.30 | and is therefore subject to fear or love. Misperceptions produce | fear, and true perceptions produce love. Neither produces |
Tx:3.33 | or stasis. It is usually an attempt to counteract an underlying | fear that the future will be worse than the present, and this fear |
Tx:3.33 | fear that the future will be worse than the present, and this | fear inhibits the tendency to question at all. |

Tx:3.66 | holding onto judgment. You will also use the term with considerable | fear, believing that judgment will someday be used against you. To |
Tx:3.70 | everyone must decide is the fundamental question of authorship. All | fear comes ultimately and sometimes by way of very devious routes |
Tx:3.76 | by a tendency of the self to create an image of itself. Its | fear aspect is often ascribed to fear of retaliation by a “father |
Tx:3.76 | to create an image of itself. Its fear aspect is often ascribed to | fear of retaliation by a “father figure,” a particularly curious idea |
Tx:3.77 | inconceivable. That is why you cannot create and are filled with | fear about what you make. |
Tx:3.79 | you become so fearful. As you approach the beginning, you feel the | fear of the destruction of your thought system upon you, as if it |
Tx:3.79 | the destruction of your thought system upon you, as if it were the | fear of death. There is no death, but there is a belief in death. |
Tx:3.80 | system will stand corrected. It cannot stand otherwise. You who | fear salvation are willing death. Life and death, light and |
Tx:4.9 | the ego to the light of the Soul. This is the change the ego must | fear because it does not share my charity. My lesson was like yours, |
Tx:4.9 | you of your true creation, your egos cannot but respond with | fear. |
Tx:4.16 | God is not the author of | fear. You are. You have chosen, therefore, to create unlike Him, |
Tx:4.16 | You have chosen, therefore, to create unlike Him, and you have made | fear for yourselves. You are not at peace because you are not |
Tx:4.17 | protection from the ego and become totally without the investment in | fear. Your investment is great now because fear is a witness to the |
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:4.70 | from the Higher Source, then, makes some sense in ego-terms. But | fear of the body, with which the ego identifies so closely, is more |
Tx:4.82 | are the same, the ego decides that, since “all” is impossible, the | fear does not lie there. “A little,” however, is a scarcity concept, |
Tx:4.104 | The ego is likely to | fear broken bodies because it cannot tolerate them. The ego cannot |
Tx:5.2 | whole-heartedly. To be whole-hearted, you must be happy. If | fear and love cannot coexist and if it is impossible to be wholly |
Tx:5.35 | journey with the ego as guide. This is bound to produce | fear. |
Tx:5.45 | Spirit within you, and we know what God creates is eternal. What | fear has hidden still is part of you. |
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:5.62 | a part of Him has been torn away by you. The classic picture of | fear of retaliation from without then follows because the severity |
Tx:5.77 | and thus release their thoughts from the ability to produce | fear anywhere in the Sonship. “The wicked shall perish” is merely a |
Tx:5.78 | unsharing, it will be reinterpreted entirely to release you from | fear. The part of your thought which you have given to the ego will |
Tx:5.83 | understanding because he was afraid and, as you know all too well, | fear is incompatible with good judgment. Fear distorts thinking and |
Tx:5.83 | as you know all too well, fear is incompatible with good judgment. | Fear distorts thinking and therefore disorders thought. |
Tx:5.87 | of, he was too honest to deny more than was necessary to keep his | fear in tolerable bounds as he perceived the situation. Therefore, he |
Tx:6.4 | positive interpretation of the crucifixion which is wholly devoid of | fear and therefore wholly benign in what it teaches if it is properly |
Tx:6.5 | that the Sonship need take and that it should mean release from | fear to anyone who understands it. While we emphasized only the |
Tx:6.5 | to make to your own lives, and if you will consider it without | fear, it will help you understand your own role as teachers. |
Tx:6.6 | Projection means anger, anger fosters assault, and assault promotes | fear. The real meaning of the crucifixion lies in the apparent |
Tx:6.19 | love made them vulnerable to projection, and out of their own | fear they spoke of the “wrath of God” as His retaliatory weapon. Nor |
Tx:6.22 | time. I emphasize this only because I do not want you to allow any | fear to enter into the thought system toward which I am guiding you. |
Tx:6.48 | you will be afraid, because you are siding with an alliance of | fear. |
Tx:6.65 | communicating is sharing, it becomes communion. You might argue that | fear as well as love can be communicated and therefore can be shared. |
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:7.38 | Spirit in both of you, because it is a refusal to acknowledge | fear. Love needs only this invitation. It comes freely to all the |
Tx:7.45 | Love is incapable of any exceptions. Only if there is | fear does the idea of exceptions seem to be meaningful. Exceptions |
Tx:7.45 | to be meaningful. Exceptions are fearful, because they are made by | fear. The “fearful healer” is a contradiction in terms and is |
Tx:7.45 | only a conflicted mind could possibly perceive as meaningful. | Fear does not gladden. Healing does. Fear always makes |
Tx:7.45 | perceive as meaningful. Fear does not gladden. Healing does. | Fear always makes exceptions. Healing never does. Fear produces |
Tx:7.45 | does. Fear always makes exceptions. Healing never does. | Fear produces dissociation, because it induces separation. Healing |
Tx:7.49 | shows you an image, or better, an idol which you may worship out of | fear but which you will never love. The other shows you only truth, |
Tx:7.54 | If it is not relinquished entirely, it is not relinquished at all. | Fear and love are equally reciprocal. They make or create, depending |
Tx:7.58 | Mind always reproduces as it was produced. Produced by | fear, the ego reproduces fear. This is its allegiance, and this |
Tx:7.58 | reproduces as it was produced. Produced by fear, the ego reproduces | fear. This is its allegiance, and this allegiance makes it |
Tx:7.104 | to follow false guidance. Unable to follow this guidance without | fear, he associates fear with guidance and refuses to follow any |
Tx:7.104 | Unable to follow this guidance without fear, he associates | fear with guidance and refuses to follow any guidance at all. [If |
Tx:7.109 | peace and shine love upon him? Does it keep his heart untouched by | fear and allow him to give always without any sense of loss? Does it |
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:8.90 | and that is why the ego is against you. What seems to be the | fear of God is really only the fear of your own reality. |
Tx:8.90 | is against you. What seems to be the fear of God is really only the | fear of your own reality. |
Tx:8.92 | The association of truth and | fear, which would be highly artificial at most, is particularly |
Tx:8.94 | The only source of | fear in this whole process can only be what you think you lose. |
Tx:8.97 | and the martyr believes that God is crucifying him. Both really | fear abandonment and retaliation, but the atheist is more reactive |
Tx:8.99 | no unbelievers and no sacrifices. In the security of reality, | fear is totally meaningless. To deny what is can only seem to be |
Tx:8.99 | meaningless. To deny what is can only seem to be fearful. | Fear cannot be real without a cause, and God is the only Cause. God |
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:8.104 | fearful, and fear cannot be created. As long as you believe that | fear is possible, you will not create. Opposing orders of reality |
Tx:8.107 | does state, and repeatedly, that its purpose is the escape from | fear. |
Tx:8.108 | expression. In this case he is not really asking for release from | fear but for the removal of a symptom which he has selected. This |
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:11.12 | 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:11.13 | appeal for it by giving it? The Holy Spirit's interpretation of | fear does dispel it, for the awareness of truth cannot be |
Tx:11.13 | of truth cannot be denied. Thus does the Holy Spirit replace | fear with love and translate error into truth. And thus will you |
Tx:11.21 | There is no | fear in perfect love. We will but be making perfect to you what is |
Tx:11.21 | making perfect to you what is already perfect in you. You do not | fear the unknown, but the known. You will not fail in your |
Tx:11.22 | to banish love have not succeeded, but you who choose to banish | fear will succeed. The Lord is with you, but you know it not. Yet |
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:12.11 | You could look even upon the ego's darkest cornerstone without | fear if you did not believe that, without the ego, you would find |
Tx:12.11 | without the ego, you would find within yourself something you | fear even more. You are not afraid of crucifixion. Your real terror |

Tx:12.12 | Your fear of attack is nothing compared to your | fear of love. You would be willing to look even upon your savage wish |
Tx:12.17 | and search your minds carefully for any thoughts which you may | fear to uncover. For He will heal every little thought which you have |
Tx:12.19 | you will not be healed completely. Healing must be as complete as | fear, for love cannot enter where there is one spot of fear to mar |

Tx:12.20 | his Father. He feared what he had made, but still more did he | fear his real Father, having attacked his own glorious equality |
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:12.37 | it to yourself. Your private world is filled with the figures of | fear you have invited into it, and all the love your brothers offer |
Tx:12.42 | vision of Christ, Who looks on all in light. Your vision comes from | fear, as His from love. And He sees for you as your witness to the |
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 | has always loved His Son. And as His son loves Him. There is no | fear in love, for love is guiltless. You who have always loved your |
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:13.79 | not a source of guilt. What cannot happen can have no effects to | fear. Be quiet in your faith in Him Who loves you and would lead you |
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:14.14 | only guiltlessness, and in His gentleness, He would release from | fear and reestablish the reign of love. The power of love is in His |
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:14.63 | 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 you |
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:15.7 | hell, and always does. The only way in which the ego allows the | fear of hell to be experienced is to bring hell here, but always as |
Tx:15.8 | the Holy Spirit, Who knows only the present, uses it to undo the | fear by which the ego would make the present useless. There is no |
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:15.17 | time and fear not the instant of holiness which will remove all | fear. For the instant of peace is eternal because it is wholly |
Tx:15.17 | For the instant of peace is eternal because it is wholly without | fear. It will come, being the lesson God gives you through the |
Tx:15.21 | as timeless, is to begin to experience yourself as not separate. | Fear not that you will not be given help in this. God's Teacher and |
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:15.62 | into the light behind it can have faith in love without | fear. Yet the Holy Spirit gives you this faith because He offered |
Tx:15.62 | you this faith because He offered it to me and I accepted it. | Fear not the holy instant will be denied you, for I denied it not. |
Tx:15.73 | as the price of union. In their angry alliances, born of the | fear of loneliness and yet dedicated to the continuance of |
Tx:15.75 | own need to communicate. The Holy Spirit cannot teach through | fear. And how can He communicate with you while you believe that to |
Tx:15.77 | so holy and so strong that it can overcome even this without | fear. It is through the holy instant that what seems impossible is |
Tx:15.81 | of your completion and seek not to restore it to yourselves. | Fear not to give redemption over to your Redeemer's love. He will not |
Tx:15.95 | forms, it is always the same idea. What is not love is always | fear and nothing else. It is not necessary to follow fear through all |
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:15.104 | you excluded from yourself seems fearful, for you endowed it with | fear and tried to cast it out though it was part of you. Who can |
Tx:16.16 | with Him is real and has been demonstrated. Regard this not with | fear but with rejoicing. The One you called upon is with you. Bid |
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:16.33 | which it would gladly come quietly to them. And when they find the | fear of death is still upon them, the love relationship loses the |
Tx:16.33 | it is what it is not. For then the barricades against it are broken, | fear rushes in, and hatred triumphs. |
Tx:16.35 | is necessary to seek for what is false. Every illusion is one of | fear, whatever form it takes. And the attempt to escape from one |

Tx:16.38 | to be wholly like unto Him, completing Him by your completion. | Fear not to cross to the abode of peace and perfect holiness. Only |
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:16.65 | Fear not that you will be abruptly lifted up and hurled into reality. | |
Tx:17.25 | or the veil of ugliness, the real world or the world of guilt and | fear, truth or illusion, freedom or slavery—it is all the same. For |
Tx:17.77 | and pain, darkness and dim imaginings of terror, cold fantasies of | fear and fiery dreams of hell. And it was nothing but the intolerable |
Tx:18.3 | The one emotion in which substitution is impossible is love. | Fear involves substitution by definition, for it is love's |
Tx:18.3 | involves substitution by definition, for it is love's replacement. | Fear is both a fragmented and a fragmenting emotion. It seems to take |
Tx:18.3 | or rejection of suitability for acting out a special form of | fear. |
Tx:18.4 | You who believe that God is | fear made but one substitution. It has taken many forms because it |
Tx:18.6 | of the original error rise to frighten you, say only, “God is not | fear, but love,” and it will disappear. |
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 | from the truth, sometimes retreating to the lesser forms of | fear and sometimes to stark terror. But you will advance because |
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:18.26 | what is that to us who travel surely and very swiftly away from | fear? |
Tx:18.27 | to leave with me? In your relationship is this world's light. And | fear must disappear before you now. Be tempted not to snatch away |
Tx:18.30 | in our desire to make whole. Let not time worry you, for all the | fear that you experience is really past. Time has been readjusted to |
Tx:18.30 | together what your separate pasts would hinder. You have gone past | fear, for no two minds can join in the desire for love without love's |
Tx:18.38 | bring Atonement to it and make salvation fearful. And it is only | fear that you will add if you prepare yourself for love. The |
Tx:18.41 | For they are all but aspects of the plan to change your dreams of | fear to happy dreams from which you waken easily to knowledge. Put |

Tx:18.42 | is only to offer Him a little willingness to let Him remove all | fear and hatred and to be forgiven. On your little faith, joined |
Tx:18.45 | He can spread joy to thousands on thousands who believe that love is | fear, not happiness. Let Him fulfill the function that He gave to |
Tx:18.46 | instantly and offer the Holy Spirit your willingness in spite of | fear to let Him exchange this instant for the holy one which you |
Tx:18.46 | the fact that it is now impossible for either of you to experience | fear alone or to attempt to deal with it alone. Never believe that |
Tx:18.59 | you have given up the illusion of a limited awareness and lost your | fear of union. The love that instantly replaces it extends to what |
Tx:18.59 | of your Identity and would not limit it. You have escaped from | fear to peace, asking no questions of reality but merely accepting |
Tx:18.87 | You are severely tempted to abandon Him at the outside ring of | fear, but He would lead you safely through and far beyond. |
Tx:18.88 | The circle of | fear lies just below the level the body sees and seems to be the |
Tx:19.11 | Faith is the opposite of | fear, as much a part of love as fear is of attack. Faith is the |
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:19.43 | have you become. Peace could no more depart from you than from God. | Fear not this little obstacle. It cannot contain the Will of God. |
Tx:19.49 | The attraction of guilt produces | fear of love, for love would never look on guilt at all. It is the |
Tx:19.49 | it would unite in holy union and completion. As love must look past | fear, so must fear see love not. For love contains the end of guilt |
Tx:19.49 | in holy union and completion. As love must look past fear, so must | fear see love not. For love contains the end of guilt as surely as |
Tx:19.49 | fear see love not. For love contains the end of guilt as surely as | fear depends on it. [Love is attracted only to love.] Overlooking |
Tx:19.49 | attracted only to love.] Overlooking guilt completely, it sees no | fear. Being wholly without attack, it could not be afraid. Fear is |
Tx:19.49 | sees no fear. Being wholly without attack, it could not be afraid. | Fear is attracted to what love sees not, and each believes that what |
Tx:19.49 | and each believes that what the other looks upon does not exist. | Fear looks on guilt with just the same devotion that love looks on |
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:19.50 | asking for messages of different things in different languages. What | fear would feed upon, love overlooks. What fear demands, love cannot |
Tx:19.50 | different languages. What fear would feed upon, love overlooks. What | fear demands, love cannot even see. |
Tx:19.51 | The fierce attraction which guilt holds for | fear is wholly absent from love's gentle perception. What love would |
Tx:19.51 | gentle perception. What love would look upon is meaningless to | fear and quite invisible. Relationships in this world are the result |
Tx:19.51 | and they tremble when their master calls upon them to serve him. For | fear is merciless even to its friends. Its messengers steal guiltily |
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:19.53 | you love's messengers to send instead of those you trained through | fear. They are as eager to return to you what they hold dear as are |
Tx:19.54 | Spirit gives you, wanting no messages but theirs, you will see | fear no more. The world will be transformed before your sight, |
Tx:19.54 | of all guilt and softly brushed with beauty. The world contains no | fear which you laid not upon it. And none you cannot ask love's |
Tx:19.54 | what love sees. They have been given to replace the hungry dogs of | fear you sent instead. And they go forth to signify the end of fear. |
Tx:19.54 | of fear you sent instead. And they go forth to signify the end of | fear. |
Tx:19.61 | of Atonement as murder. Here is the source of the idea that love is | fear. The Holy Spirit's messengers are sent far beyond the body, |
Tx:19.62 | It is only the messengers of | fear that see the body, for they look for what can suffer. Is it a |
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:19.71 | with the body, which is the invitation to pain. For it invites | fear to enter and become your purpose. The attraction of guilt must |
Tx:19.71 | purpose. The attraction of guilt must enter with it, and whatever | fear directs the body to do is therefore painful. It will share the |
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:19.84 | Those who | fear death see not how often and how loudly they call to it and bid |
Tx:19.86 | The | fear of death will go as its appeal is yielded to love's real |
Tx:19.87 | can assail the wholly innocent? What can attack the guiltless? What | fear can enter and disturb the peace of sinlessness? What has been |
Tx:19.88 | When anything seems to you to be a source of | fear, when any situation strikes you with terror and makes your body |
Tx:19.88 | you with terror and makes your body tremble and the cold sweat of | fear comes over it, remember it is always for one reason—the ego |
Tx:19.88 | is always for one reason—the ego has perceived it as a symbol of | fear, a sign of sin and death. Remember then that neither sign nor |
Tx:19.90 | What would you see without the | fear of death? What would you feel and think if death held no |
Tx:19.91 | as streams of blood, fades in the blazing light beyond it when the | fear of death is gone. |
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:19.93 | in death would seem to “save” you. For if this is gone, what can you | fear but life? It is the attraction of death that makes life seem |
Tx:19.93 | in your secret alliance with them, you have agreed never to let the | fear of God be lifted so you could look upon the face of Christ and |
Tx:19.94 | that peace must flow across is surmounted in just the same way; the | fear that raised it yields to the love beneath, and so the fear is |
Tx:19.94 | way; the fear that raised it yields to the love beneath, and so the | fear is gone. And so it is with this. The desire to get rid of peace |
Tx:19.94 | by the power of the attraction of what lies beyond. Your wanting | fear seemed to be holding them in place. Yet when you heard the voice |
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:19.97 | you raise your 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 |
Tx:19.98 | No one can look upon the | fear of God unterrified unless he has accepted the Atonement and |
Tx:19.100 | To look upon the | fear of God does need some preparation. Only the sane can look on |
Tx:19.100 | insanity and raving madness with pity and compassion but not with | fear. For only if they share in it does it seem fearful, and you do |
Tx:19.100 | you still stand unforgiving. You are afraid of God because you | fear each other. Those you do not forgive you fear. And no one |
Tx:19.100 | Those you do not forgive you fear. And no one reaches love with | fear beside him. |
Tx:19.101 | it. And all the pity and forgiveness that would heal it gives way to | fear. Brothers, you need forgiveness of each other, for you will |
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:20.12 | up our eyes together, not in fear, but faith. And there will be no | fear in us, for in our vision will be no illusions—only a pathway |
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:20.33 | which sin can enter not, and where the Son of God can enter without | fear, and where he rests a while to forget imprisonment and to |
Tx:20.38 | Each herald of eternity sings of the end of sin and | fear. Each speaks in time of what is far beyond it. Two voices raised |
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:21.42 | so. Beneath your fear to look within because of sin is yet another | fear and one which makes the ego tremble. |
Tx:21.66 | are joined is your salvation—the gift of Heaven, not the gift of | fear. Does Heaven seem to be a burden to you? In madness, yes. And |
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:22.55 | you bring shines now on you. The means of sinlessness can know no | fear because they carry only love with them. |
Tx:22.60 | about, for here lies buried the heavy anchor that seems to keep the | fear of God in place, unmovable and solid as a rock. While this |
Tx:22.61 | are separate. And you must think that they are separate because of | fear. For it seems safer to attack another or yourself than to attack |
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:23.33 | thanks unto the hero on love's throne, who saved the Son of God for | fear and death! |
Tx:23.38 | witnessing or their results. Certain it is illusions will bring | fear because of the beliefs that they imply, not for their form. And |
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 |
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:24.49 | the dreams of fear. He is the healing of your sense of sacrifice and | fear that what you have will scatter with the wind and turn to dust. |
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:28.10 | against His Will. What your remembering would witness to is but the | fear of God. He has not done the thing you fear. No more have you. |
Tx:28.10 | witness to is but the fear of God. He has not done the thing you | fear. No more have you. And so your innocence has not been lost. You |
Tx:28.13 | How instantly the memory of God arises in the mind that has no | fear to keep the memory away. Its own remembering has gone. There is |
Tx:28.13 | the stillness, yet disturb it not. And what is now remembered is not | fear, but rather is the cause that fear was made to render |
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:28.14 | past or future. Its effects are changelessly eternal, beyond | fear, and past the world of sin entirely. |
Tx:28.15 | bridge, and it is He Who will transport His Son across it. Have no | fear that He will fail in what He wills. Nor that you be excluded |
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 | of God most plainly seen. For love is treacherous to those who | fear, since fear and hate can never be apart. No one who hates but is |
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 | It is not love that asks a sacrifice. But | fear demands the sacrifice of love, for in love's presence fear |
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 | but a dream of fear, no matter what the form it seems to take. The | fear is seen within, without, or both. Or it can be disguised in |
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:29.50 | The fear of God is but the fear of loss of idols. It is not the | fear of loss of your reality. But you have made of your reality an |
Tx:29.55 | is not a thing to make you tremble and to quail in | fear. Christ's enemy is nowhere. He can take no form in which he |
Tx:29.69 | Whenever you feel | fear in any form—and you are fearful if you do not feel a deep |
Tx:29.69 | all your sense of doom. Your self-betrayal must result in | fear, for fear is judgment, leading surely to the frantic search |
Tx:29.69 | your sense of doom. Your self-betrayal must result in fear, for | fear is judgment, leading surely to the frantic search for idols |
Tx:29.70 | the dream. And so they bring the dreamer full release from dreams of | fear. He does not fear his judgment, for he has judged no one, nor |
Tx:29.70 | they bring the dreamer full release from dreams of fear. He does not | fear his judgment, for he has judged no one, nor has sought to be |
Tx:30.1 | you from dreams of judgment to forgiving dreams and out of pain and | fear. They are not new to you, but they are more ideas than rules of |
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:30.57 | in which the only purpose of the world is seen to be forgiveness. | Fear is not its goal, and the escape from guilt becomes its aim. |
Tx:30.57 | are made of anyone or anything to twist and fit into the dream of | fear. Instead, there is a wish to understand all things created as |
Tx:30.59 | made perfect in himself. He has no wish for anything but this. And | fear has dropped away because he is united in his purpose with |
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 | and easy is the step across the narrow boundaries of the world of | fear when you have recognized Whose hand you hold! Within your hand |
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 |
W1:13.3 | that you learn to recognize the meaningless and accept it without | fear. If you are fearful, it is certain that you will endow the world |
W1:13.7 | A meaningless world engenders | fear because I think I am in competition with God. |
W1:13.8 | preposterous. Note carefully, however, any signs of overt or covert | fear which it may arouse. This is our first attempt at stating an |

W1:16.3 | every thought you have brings either peace or war, either love or | fear. A neutral result is impossible because a neutral thought is |
W1:16.3 | neutral thought is impossible. There is such a temptation to dismiss | fear thoughts as unimportant, trivial, and not worth bothering about |
W1:20.2 | distinguish between joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain, love and | fear. You are now learning how to tell them apart. And great indeed |
W1:22.2 | —everything that you hate and would attack and kill. All that you | fear does not exist. |
W1:23.1 | The idea for today contains the only way out of | fear that will ever succeed. Nothing else will work; everything else |
W1:26.2 | Because your attack thoughts will be projected, you will | fear attack. And if you fear attack, you must believe that you are |
W1:26.2 | attack thoughts will be projected, you will fear attack. And if you | fear attack, you must believe that you are not invulnerable. Attack |
W1:26.6 | take the form of depression, worry, anger, a sense of imposition, | fear, foreboding, or preoccupation. Any problem as yet unsettled |
W1:27.4 | If | fear of loss still persists, add further: |
W1:34.3 | for each of the longer practice periods. Search your mind for | fear thoughts, anxiety provoking situations, “offending” |
W1:39.6 | in whatever form they appear—uneasiness, depression, anger, | fear, worry, attack, insecurity, and so on. Whatever form they take, |
W1:41.1 | worry, a deep sense of helplessness, misery, suffering, and intense | fear of loss. The separated ones have invented many “cures” for what |

W1:46.2 | Fear condemns, and love forgives. Forgiveness thus undoes what | fear has produced, returning the mind to the awareness of God. For |

W1:47.4 | searching for situations in your life which you have invested with | fear, dismissing each one by telling yourself, |
W1:48.1 | illusions, but illusions are not facts. In truth there is nothing to | fear. It is very easy to recognize this. But it is very difficult to |
W1:48.3 | The presence of | fear is a sure sign that you are trusting in your own strength. The |

W1:60.4 | [48] There is nothing to | fear. How safe the world will look to me when I can see it! It will |
W1:60.4 | will recognize in everyone my dearest Friend. What could there be to | fear in a world which I have forgiven and which has forgiven me? |
W1:62.3 | weakness, strain, and fatigue from your mind. It will take away all | fear and guilt and pain. It will restore the invulnerability and |
W1:64.3 | arrogance of the ego that leads you to question this and only the | fear of the ego that induces you to regard yourself as unworthy of |
W1:66.9 | and no other outcomes possible as a result of your choice but the | fear which the ego always engenders and the love which the Holy |

W1:153.7 | is weakness. It proclaims you have denied the Christ and come to | fear His Father's anger. What can save you now from your delusion of |

W1:170.6 | Next are the attributes of love bestowed upon its “enemy.” For | fear becomes your safety and protector of your peace, to which you |

W1:170.10 | is the basic premise which enthrones the thought of fear as god. For | fear is loved by those who worship it, and love appears to be |
W1:170.11 | come from? Love has not confused its attributes with those of | fear. Yet must the worshipers of fear perceive their own confusion in |

W1:170.12 | this cruel god remain with you in still another form, and so the | fear of God returned with you. This time you leave it here. And you |
W1:170.13 | to you at last. The Call of God is heard and answered. Now has | fear made way for love, as God Himself replaces cruelty. |
W1:175.3 | [160] I am at home. | Fear is the stranger here. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
W1:182.8 | stillness, silent and at peace, beyond all words, untouched by | fear and doubt, sublimely certain that you are at home. |

W1:187.9 | fear to look upon such lovely holiness? The great illusion of the | fear of God diminishes to nothingness before the purity that you will |
W1:187.10 | Now are we one in thought, for | fear has gone. And here, before the altar to one God, one Father, one |
W1:189.2 | Who could feel | fear in such a world as this? It welcomes you, rejoices that you |
W1:189.3 | from the world you see through darkened eyes of malice and of | fear that one belies the other. Only one can be perceived at all. The |
W1:190.3 | in place of truth. It demonstrates God is denied, confused with | fear, perceived as mad, and seen as traitor to Himself. If God is |
W1:190.3 | is real, there is no God. For vengeance is not part of love. And | fear, denying love and using pain to prove that God is dead, has |
W1:190.7 | desires bring it evil dreams. Your thoughts of death envelop it in | fear, while in your kind forgiveness does it live. |
W1:190.8 | not to be free. In pain is God denied the Son He loves. In pain does | fear appear to triumph over love and time replace eternity and |
W1:190.9 | all things still at last. Lay down all thoughts of danger and of | fear. Let no attack enter with you. Lay down the cruel sword of |
W1:192.4 | symbols written there before. Forgiveness is the means by which the | fear of death is overcome because it holds no fierce attraction now, |
W1:192.5 | lost the source of all attack, the core of anguish, and the seat of | fear? |
W1:193.4 | which forgiveness enters, and returns the hate to love, so that the | fear is gone. And now guilt cannot enter, for its source has been |
W1:193.9 | These are the words which end the dream of sin and rid the mind of | fear. These are the words by which salvation comes to all the world. |

W1:194.7 | And what can he regard except with love? For he who has escaped all | fear of future pain has found his way to present peace and certainty |
W1:195.8 | lay comparisons aside. What more remains as obstacles to peace? The | fear of God is now undone at last, and we forgive without comparing. |
W1:196.5 | it seemed to be salvation. Yet it merely stood for the belief the | fear of God is real. And what is that but hell? Who could believe his |
W1:196.5 | to destroy his life and blot him from the universe, without the | fear of hell upon his heart? |
W1:196.6 | least, must be entirely impossible, how could there be escape? The | fear of God is real to anyone who thinks this thought is true. And he |
W1:196.7 | all, its form must first be changed at least as much as will permit | fear of retaliation to abate and the responsibility returned to some |
W1:196.7 | you cannot perceive that it is but your thoughts that bring you | fear and your deliverance depends on you. |
W1:196.8 | it is impossible that you be hurt except by your own thoughts, the | fear of God must disappear. You do not now believe that fear is |
W1:196.8 | the fear of God must disappear. You do not now believe that | fear is caused without. And God, Whom you had thought to banish, can |
W1:196.9 | can but be you you crucify, you did not hurt the world and need not | fear its vengeance and pursuit. Nor need you hide in terror from the |
W1:196.9 | vengeance and pursuit. Nor need you hide in terror from the deadly | fear of God projection hides behind. The thing you dread the most is |
W1:196.10 | quite hopeless. When you realize once and for all that it is you you | fear, the mind perceives itself as split. And this had been concealed |
W1:196.10 | from outside to within. It seemed to be an enemy outside you had to | fear. And thus a god outside yourself became your mortal enemy—the |
W1:196.10 | thus a god outside yourself became your mortal enemy—the source of | fear. |
W1:196.11 | in this instant is the time as well in which salvation comes. For | fear of God has disappeared. And you can call on Him to save you from |
W1:196.11 | His Son. Pray that the instant may be soon—today. Step back from | fear and make advance to love. |
W1:196.12 | instant and to go beyond it quickly, surely, and forever. When the | fear of God is gone, there are no obstacles that still remain between |
W1:197.7 | And with the end of this belief is | fear forever over. Thank your Self for this, for He is grateful only |
W1:199.2 | such a mind because it has been given to the Source of Love. And | fear can never enter in a mind that has attached itself to Love. It |
W1:200.6 | appears to be a choice to make between success and failure, love and | fear? |
W2:225.1 | and keeping it within its kindly light, inviolate—beloved, with | fear behind and only peace ahead. How still the way Your loving Son |
W2:232.2 | This is as every day should be. Today practice the end of | fear. Have faith in Him Who is your Father. Trust all things to Him. |
W2:240.1 | Fear is deception. It attests that you have seen yourself as you | |
W2:240.1 | Let us not be deceived today. We are the Son of God. There is no | fear in us, for we are each a part of Love Itself. |

W2:259.1 | of fear, obscuring God's creation, giving love the attributes of | fear and of attack? |
W2:WIB.3 | seems to picture happiness but can quite suddenly revert to | fear, where every dream is born. For only love creates in truth, and |
W2:WIB.3 | dream is born. For only love creates in truth, and truth can never | fear. Made to be fearful, must the body serve the purpose given it. |
W2:WIB.5 | you. Your safety lies in truth and not in lies. Love is your safety. | Fear does not exist. Identify with love, and you are safe. Identify |
W2:265.1 | in the celestial gentleness with which creation shines. There is no | fear in it. Let no appearance of my “sins” obscure the light of |
W2:272.2 | be chosen just as easily as hell and love will happily replace all | fear. |
W2:273.2 | Father, Your peace is mine. What need have I to | fear that anything can rob me of what You would have me keep? I |
W2:274.2 | Him Who is our Father. Give this day to Him and there will be no | fear today because the day is given unto Love. |
W2:278.2 | thoughts about myself and my creation and have brought a dream of | fear into my mind. Today I would not dream. I choose the way to You |
W2:278.2 | not dream. I choose the way to You instead of madness and instead of | fear. For truth is safe and only love is sure. |
W2:WIHS.2 | For sights and sounds must be translated from the witnesses of | fear to those of love. And when this is entirely accomplished, |
W2:282.2 | the truth be changed by merely giving it another name? The name of | fear is simply a mistake. Let me not be afraid of truth today. |

W2:WIRW.1 | is opposite to what you made. Your world is seen through eyes of | fear and brings the witnesses of terror to your mind. The real world |
W2:WIRW.1 | so they see a world where terror is impossible and witnesses to | fear cannot be found. |
W2:WIRW.2 | thought reflected in your world, a sure correction for the sights of | fear and sounds of battle which your world contains. The real world |
W2:293.1 | All | fear is past because its source is gone and all its thoughts gone |
W2:293.2 | the hymns of gratitude the world is singing underneath the sounds of | fear. There is a real world which the present holds safe from all |
W2:294.1 | die? And yet a neutral thing does not see death, for thoughts of | fear are not invested there, nor is a mockery of love bestowed upon |
W2:295.1 | the world is saved with me. For all of us must be redeemed together. | Fear appears in many different forms, but love is one. |
W2:298.1 | My gratitude permits my love to be accepted without | fear. And thus am I restored to my reality at last. All that intruded |
W2:298.1 | sure that in that alone I will be saved, sure that I go through | fear to meet my Love. |
W2:302.1 | us to look upon. Christ's vision changes darkness into light, for | fear must disappear when love has come. Let me forgive Your holy |
W2:305.1 | it and gently carries it to truth, no more to be the home of | fear. For Love has come and healed the world by giving it Christ's |
W2:306.1 | to me? Today I can forget the world I made. Today I can go past all | fear and be restored to love and holiness and peace. Today I am |
W2:309.1 | look within is but to find my will as God created it and as it is. I | fear to look within because I think I made another will which is not |
W2:310.2 | We are restored to peace and holiness. There is no room in us for | fear today, for we have welcomed love into our hearts. |
W2:WILJ.3 | freeing you from them and all effects they ever seemed to have. To | fear God's saving grace is but to fear complete release from |

W2:313.1 | there is a vision which beholds all things as sinless, so that | fear has gone and where it was is love invited in. And love will come |
W2:314.1 | of the present. Past mistakes can cast no shadows on it, so that | fear has lost its idols and its images, and being formless, it has no |
W2:322.2 | give has no reality. What loss can I anticipate except the loss of | fear and the return of Love into my mind? |

W2:331.1 | that Love has left Itself? There is no will except the will of Love. | Fear is a dream and has no will that can conflict with Yours. |
W2:332.2 | We would not bind the world again today. | Fear holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has given us the means to |
W2:338.1 | world. For in this single thought is everyone released at last from | fear. Now he has learned that no one frightens him and nothing can |
W2:338.1 | to him alone, he has the power to change them and exchange each | fear thought for a happy thought of love. He crucified himself. Yet |
W2:339.1 | spend this day in fearlessness, without confusing pain with joy or | fear with love. |
W2:340.2 | Not one of us but will be saved today. Not one who will remain in | fear, and none the Father will not gather to Himself, awake in Heaven |

W2:348.1 | peace and joy I share with You. What need have I for anger or for | fear? Surrounding me is perfect safety. Can I be afraid when Your |

M:27.3 | of death. Devouring is nature's “law of life.” God is insane, and | fear alone is real. |
M:27.4 | denied. No compromise in this is possible. There is either a god of | fear or One of Love. The world attempts a thousand compromises and |

M:27.5 | death of God if He is Love. And now His own creation must stand in | fear of Him. He is not Father but destroyer. He is not Creator but |
M:27.6 | be eternal. Do you not see that otherwise He has an opposite, and | fear would be as real as love? |
M:28.4 | no death. The Son of God is free. And in his freedom is the end of | fear. No hidden places now remain on earth to shelter sick illusions, |

A Course of Love (442) | ||
C:P.10 | you are still letting ego make your choice. This is not humility but | fear. |
C:P.11 | The further teachings of the original Course were designed to turn | fear into love. When you think you can go only so far and no further |
C:P.11 | truth of your Self as God created you, you are abdicating love to | fear. You are perhaps making this world a better place but you are |
C:P.12 | rejection but rejection of your Self? What is this rejection but | fear masquerading as humility? What is this rejection but rejection |

C:1.18 | are of love. All feelings you label painful or angry are of | fear. This is all there is. This is the world you make. Love or fear |

C:1.18 | that is real. A choice for love is a choice for heaven. A choice of | fear is hell. Neither are a place. They are a further reflection of |

C:2.3 | times and labeled it so many things you no longer recognize it as | fear. The same is true of love. |
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:2.4 | This is true enough. But because you have not properly recognized | fear as nothing, you have not properly recognized love as everything. |
C:2.4 | love as everything. It is because of the attributes you have given | fear that love has been given attributes. Only separate things have |
C:3.22 | believes they can have one without the other and so they live in | fear of love, all the while desiring it above all else. |
C:4.4 | not for your recognition, given witness by your longing, of what you | fear you are not, but surely are? |
C:4.5 | All | fear ends when proof of your existence is established. All fear is |
C:4.5 | All fear ends when proof of your existence is established. All | fear is based on your inability to recognize love and thus who you |
C:5.1 | and divine that ushers in love's presence, as all that caused you | fear and pain falls away and you recognize again what love is. It is |

C:6.14 | could be. For giving up is seen as failure, and here is what you | fear the most. To not succeed at life would indeed be a failure if it |
C:6.21 | to do to you? At best you see them as delusional. But what you | fear is disappointment. All that you have wished for and have not |
C:9.3 | is a desire that arises from distrust and is based totally on | fear. If there were no fear, what would there be to protect? Thus, |
C:9.3 | arises from distrust and is based totally on fear. If there were no | fear, what would there be to protect? Thus, all of your love—the |
C:9.3 | the love that you imagine you receive and give—is tainted by your | fear and cannot be real love. It is because you remember love as that |
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:9.15 | first level of what your eyes allow you to observe and you will find | fear lurking there. The next level, depending on your disposition, is |
C:9.15 | your self, and if beneath that surface what is first encountered is | fear, it is from fear that all the rest proceeds. Surely it is easy |
C:9.15 | beneath that surface what is first encountered is fear, it is from | fear that all the rest proceeds. Surely it is easy to see that |
C:9.15 | desire to control nor to protect would exist without the layer of | fear that comes before it. |
C:9.16 | Fear, like all the rest of your emotions, comes in many guises and is | |
C:9.16 | is given many names, but there are really only two emotions: one is | fear, the other love. Fear is thus the source of all illusion, love |

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:9.20 | have been able to see to bring relief to the nightmare of a life of | fear. You project fear outward and away from yourself, seeing not |

C:9.20 | keep that which you would project. Seeing not that outward signs of | fear are but reflections of what you keep within. |
C:9.21 | Think now of one of those you have identified as living the life of | fear you deny yourself. And imagine that you could bring this one in |
C:9.23 | had no needs to meet? What would you do with your life if you had no | fear? These questions are the same. |
C:9.24 | is the replacement of illusion with the truth, the replacement of | fear with love, the replacement of your separated self with your real |
C:9.25 | this insane idea's validity. It is your proof as well that a life of | fear is warranted. How could you not fear for the safety of a home as |
C:9.25 | proof as well that a life of fear is warranted. How could you not | fear for the safety of a home as fragile as the body? How could you |
C:9.27 | not alone that you realize your unity with me and begin to turn from | fear toward love. |
C:9.34 | what you were to ever again be worthy of your true inheritance. You | fear that this, too, you would squander and lay to ruin. The only |
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:9.39 | sought, you will not leave in deepest peace but in dark despair and | fear. You will have no hope for what lies beyond life, for you will |
C:9.42 | your idolatry their glory would be no more, and so they live in | fear no less than that of those who idolize them. |
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:11.15 | of heart, or a willingness but to, for a little while, withdraw your | fear and your protection from it. But what this willingness really |
C:11.18 | you seek. In having chosen separation over unity, you but chose | fear over love. When you let go of fear and invite unity to return, |
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:12.20 | of separation, the external aspect of life would not exist. Just as | fear is not real although it seems to be, separation is not real |
C:13.12 | else. No reason for guilt will exist within this memory. No shame or | fear is here, and no grievances of any kind. For here forgiveness is |
C:14.9 | gives reason its foundation. The foundation of your insane world is | fear. The foundation of Heaven, your true home, is love. The same |
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 |
C:14.15 | security, or even accept that it is vanity, before you would call it | fear. But fear is what it is. |
C:14.15 | or even accept that it is vanity, before you would call it fear. But | fear is what it is. |
C:14.16 | Only | fear breeds the feelings of lack that stand with it, the cornerstone |
C:14.19 | you have assigned yourself! It is no small wonder that you live in | fear when so much is dependent upon you. And no wonder that when you |
C:14.19 | but all with the same purpose in mind. What none realize is that | fear has replaced love. |
C:14.20 | afraid of losing love, and even speak of it and try to alleviate the | fear with official commitments, pledges and promises made. Others may |
C:14.20 | commitments, pledges and promises made. Others may deny their | fear, and say they trust in what they have and the faithfulness of |
C:14.20 | faith and trust, for their feelings remain strong despite their | fear. For even those who fear no deception must remain afraid of the |
C:14.20 | their feelings remain strong despite their fear. For even those who | fear no deception must remain afraid of the great deceiver. Whether |

C:14.21 | to shield them for a little while from all the other things they | fear. And yet the greatest fear of all is that of loss of love. You |

C:14.21 | loss of love. You who have given everything to be alone and separate | fear most of all that which you have given everything to attain. For |
C:14.22 | Loss of love comes from only one source. Call it | fear or call it separation but it is still the same. For in your |
C:14.24 | you have ascribed to anything proceeds from the foundation of | fear that built your world, each purpose is as senseless and as |
C:14.28 | of union have still done so when you have loved freely and without | fear. In this state your memory returns to you of who you are, and |

C:16.8 | A forgiven world is a world whose foundation has changed from | fear to love. Only from this world can your special function be |
C:16.9 | to your heart! Your heart does not want to see with judgment or with | fear. It calls to you to accept forgiveness that you may give it and |
C:16.10 | own apart from what your mind would bid it do, and this is why you | fear it even while you yearn for it. This is what the split mind |
C:16.21 | While you want those you have given power to protect you, you also | fear them, and they in turn fear the powerless who might take away |
C:16.21 | given power to protect you, you also fear them, and they in turn | fear the powerless who might take away their power or rise up against |
C:16.25 | This | fear but stems from what you have used your power for. You know your |
C:17.3 | of a consciousness beyond that which you are aware because of | fear. And yet you know you cannot claim that you are aware of all |
C:17.3 | Coming to know what was previously unknown to you can remove the | fear, if you will let it. |
C:17.4 | your perception of it. This is both what you desire and what you | fear just as you both desire and fear knowing yourself. |
C:17.4 | both what you desire and what you fear just as you both desire and | fear knowing yourself. |
C:17.14 | This space you can turn back to holds no judgment and no | fear, and so it is the repository of all that has proceeded from |
C:17.14 | become part of the whole along with you. All that has proceeded from | fear is nothing, and has no existence apart from your own thoughts. |
C:17.15 | and while you do not see this your thoughts remain based on | fear and fear thus remains your foundation. For judgment is but the |
C:17.15 | and while you do not see this your thoughts remain based on fear and | fear thus remains your foundation. For judgment is but the belief |
C:18.14 | the creator, and loved all that you created. You did not desire and | fear something at the same time, and your desires did not change from |
C:18.21 | your feelings of love from your feelings of lack of love or | fear. What we have as yet talked even less of, however, is what |
C:19.2 | was, it was also created to provide the desired experience. Thus was | fear born, for a separate self is a fearful self by its nature. How |
C:19.7 | Creator. This yearning must but be a pure yearning—untainted by | fear and judgment and approached with wholeheartedness—for it to be |
C:19.18 | your asking or prayer awaits is but your belief in the love without | fear that has always responded. |
C:20.28 | and not to express who you are with your full power is the result of | fear. To know the safety and love of the embrace is to know no cause |
C:20.28 | To know the safety and love of the embrace is to know no cause for | fear, and thus to come into your true power. True power is the power |

C:20.31 | is natural when fear has been rejected. You have long embraced | fear and rejected love. Now the reverse is true. This reversal of |
C:20.31 | of your universe and the laws by which it operates. The laws of | fear were laws of struggle, limits, danger, and competitiveness. The |
C:20.31 | from your actions and the results of your actions in a universe of | fear. You set the laws of the universe when you chose fear. The laws |

C:20.32 | I was expressing the nature of my brothers and sisters as caused by | fear. To accept your power and your God-given authority is to know |
C:20.32 | power and your God-given authority is to know what you do. Let the | fear be taken from this area of your thought so that you can see the |
C:20.32 | you can see the application of cooperative action. As long as you | fear your own ability to know what you do, you cannot be fully |
C:20.33 | universe, existing in a state of compassionate free will devoid of | fear, knows what it does. There are no opposing forces that are not |
C:20.34 | dance. You have not known what you do or what to do only because of | fear, only because you have been out of accord with the one |
C:20.36 | “if only” from those we have spoken of earlier—the “if onlys” of | fear. If you put half as much faith in these “if onlys” as you have |
C:20.36 | as much faith in these “if onlys” as you have in the “if onlys” of | fear, all the certainty I have spoken of will be yours. |
C:20.39 | All service is cooperative and depends on a belief in mutuality. All | fear that what is good for one may not be good for the whole is |
C:20.39 | his or her desires. Eachness replaces thingness but not oneness. All | fear that what one gets means that less is available for another is |
C:23.3 | life for you, rise to any occasion of your need, share your every | fear and joy. |

C:24.1 | you learned to hate, you will learn to love. Where you learned to | fear, you will learn safety. Where you learned to distrust, you will |

C:25.13 | you will realize you are no longer vulnerable to being wounded. | Fear of being wounded—physically, mentally, emotionally, and |

T1:3.22 | You | fear as well that you do not know what miracles are and thus cannot |

T1:3.23 | the wrong choice in your choice of miracles. This is the same as a | fear of scarcity. For surely the working of one miracle would be a |
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 | The second aspect of this | fear is fear of the divine. A part of this fear of the divine is |
T1:5.4 | The second aspect of this fear is | fear of the divine. A part of this fear of the divine is related to |
T1:5.4 | The second aspect of this fear is fear of the divine. A part of this | fear of the divine is related to the fear of the human condition. How |
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 |
T1:5.5 | This fear of all and nothingness is fear of God, | fear of Life, fear of Creation, fear of Self. For there is only all |
T1:5.5 | This fear of all and nothingness is fear of God, fear of Life, | fear of Creation, fear of Self. For there is only all and nothing. |
T1:5.5 | all and nothingness is fear of God, fear of Life, fear of Creation, | fear of Self. For there is only all and nothing. |
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 |
T2:1.4 | many observations within this Course regarding desire, you may still | fear your desire. Despite many exhortations that your purpose here is |
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. |
T3:3.3 | As much as you | fear disappointment for yourself and let this fear keep you from much |
T3:3.3 | As much as you fear disappointment for yourself and let this | fear keep you from much you would desire, you fear as much or more |
T3:3.3 | yourself and let this fear keep you from much you would desire, you | fear as much or more your ability to disappoint others or to “let |
T3:4.8 | is before you to do one of two things: to proceed toward love or | fear. If you proceed with fear you will assemble a new ego-self, an |
T3:4.8 | of two things: to proceed toward love or fear. If you proceed with | fear you will assemble a new ego-self, an ego-self that perhaps will |
T3:5.1 | state of emptiness, this is not a state to be feared. Yet it is this | fear of emptiness that has, in the past, made those who have |
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. |
T3:10.12 | to you a foreign thought system. This thought system recognizes no | fear or judgment, no uncertainty or doubt, no contrast and no |
T3:11.4 | meant to shield the personal self from all that it would | fear. The House of Truth is the dwelling place of those who no longer |
T3:11.4 | House of Truth is the dwelling place of those who no longer live in | fear and thus have no need for a structure of seeming protection. |
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. |
T3:12.9 | thus continuing, and being unable to find release from, the cycle of | fear. |
T3:13.2 | it be an extreme experience of pain or of pleasure. You begin to | fear that pleasure will end or that pain will not end. Once fear has |
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 |
T3:19.11 | in truth but only in illusion. To live in truth is to live without | fear of the meaningless acts of those living in illusion because they |
T4:1.1 | not be predictive. It will leave no one out. It will not appeal to | fear nor give you cause for fear. It will not be about tools or tell |
T4:1.1 | leave no one out. It will not appeal to fear nor give you cause for | fear. It will not be about tools or tell you that some have the tools |
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 |
T4:3.7 | with a world of love, there can be no more weighing of love against | fear. God did not create fear and will not be judged by it. All |
T4:3.7 | can be no more weighing of love against fear. God did not create | fear and will not be judged by it. All judgment is the cause of fear |
T4:3.7 | fear and will not be judged by it. All judgment is the cause of | fear and this effort to weigh love's strength against fear's |
T4:3.7 | you chose to believe and live in a world the nature of which was | fear, you could not know God. You could not know God because you |
T4:3.7 | could not know God because you judged God from within the nature of | fear, believing it to be your natural state. |
T4:3.12 | cannot exist in a form unnatural to love. A form whose nature is | fear cannot house the creation of love. |
T4:4.18 | yours. It will be a choice of your creation, a creation devoid of | fear. It will be a new choice. |
T4:7.4 | able to envision, imagine and desire without judgment and without | fear. |
T4:7.5 | This is why all | fear, including the fear of death, needs to be removed from you |
T4:7.5 | This is why all fear, including the | fear of death, needs to be removed from you despite the radical |
T4:7.5 | of life-everlasting. You cannot sustain Christ-consciousness while | fear remains in you, just as you cannot sustain Christ-consciousness |
T4:7.5 | nature of Christ, it is not in the nature of the Christ-Self to know | fear or judgment. What we are speaking of is abiding in your natural |
T4:7.5 | is abiding in your natural state. Your natural state is one free of | fear and judgment. This is all that makes up the difference between |
T4:7.5 | not accept the truth of your identity or the reality of love without | fear, it existed in a reality of fear and judgment, and bound heart |
T4:7.5 | or the reality of love without fear, it existed in a reality of | fear and judgment, and bound heart and body to this reality. Your |
T4:8.9 | saw and knew to be consistent with the nature of man, even while the | fear and struggle that this impatience generated was inconsistent |
T4:12.18 | not the idea of struggle take hold in the new. Let not the idea of | fear take hold in the new. Let not the idea of judgment take hold in |
T4:12.20 | yourself. You must constantly remember that doubt about yourself is | fear, and reject the instinct, so engrained into your singular |
T4:12.20 | You have no cause for self-doubt because you have no cause for | fear. To dwell in fear will end your ability to dwell within the love |
T4:12.20 | cause for self-doubt because you have no cause for fear. To dwell in | fear will end your ability to dwell within the love that is |
T4:12.26 | Realize this without | fear, for I am with you. This is akin to being stranded in a foreign |
T4:12.34 | behind of the old, a willingness that included the leaving behind of | fear and judgment and a separate will, was necessary to begin |
T4:12.35 | known to us is that it will be a future of love, a future without | fear, a future with unlimited freedom. For what more could we ask? |
D:3.6 | strong, right and wrong. You learned from the contrast of love and | fear, sickness and health, life and death. In this time of Christ, |
D:3.6 | accept goodness and deny evil or even that you accept love and deny | fear. How can this be? |
D:4.6 | systems that developed when shape and form was given to what you | fear and what you believe will protect you. |
D:4.7 | deterrent. The thought of time in prison fills the mind with | fear. And yet those who are imprisoned often become so acclimated to |
D:4.22 | If you are lured away from who you are by a drive to succeed, if you | fear doing what you want to do because you might fail, if you follow |
D:4.26 | to you to accept that your release is possible, to desire it without | fear, to call it into being. |
D:5.20 | As you can see, you are now approaching another thought reversal. | Fear not that your confusion will last, for with this thought |
D:6.2 | —I compared the real to the unreal, the false to the true, | fear to love—in order to point out the insanity of your perception |
D:6.15 | about what is is a false certainty, a learned certainty based on the | fear that caused you to order the world according to a set of facts |
D:6.25 | learning. And with the extended life span came extended reasons for | fear, and a physical form that you came to believe needed greater and |
D:7.24 | his environment will come to an abrupt and painful end. Some even | fear an evolutionary setback, and see any threat against civilization |
D:7.25 | These scenarios of | fear we leave behind as we abandon ideas of evolution in time and |
D:Day2.8 | mountain. It is not the height you have attained that causes your | fear of falling. It is the depths to which you feel you once |
D:Day2.8 | depths to which you feel you once descended that calls forth your | fear here. |
D:Day3.21 | have more than you, you would consider a shaming act. You would | fear that they might think you want something from them and you would |
D:Day3.23 | those who always has “just enough,” little do others know that your | fear is as great as theirs. That while you admit you have “enough,” |
D:Day3.29 | if you really believe this, or if you are merely covering over your | fear of not having enough with an incessant drive to prove it is not |
D:Day4.38 | You must realize that here is where | fear must be totally replaced by love. If you fear to go where the |
D:Day4.38 | that here is where fear must be totally replaced by love. If you | fear to go where the portal of access will take you, you will not go. |
D:Day4.38 | you, you will not go. Thus your desire needs to be greater than your | fear. Love needs to reign. Love of self and love of your brothers and |
D:Day4.38 | be, all of these must come together and be victors over the reign of | fear. |
D:Day4.39 | not made a choice of love? If you have not made the choice to reject | fear? If you have not made the choice for the new? If you are still |
D:Day4.46 | will be as I am. It means you will live from love rather than from | fear. It means that you will demonstrate what living from love is. It |
D:Day4.46 | to eternal life here and now. It means no turning back, no return to | fear or anger, no return to separation, no return to judgment. It |
D:Day4.51 | to dwell or to accept? All, all you cannot bring forward with you is | fear, for fear is the cause of the state of learning. You may have |
D:Day4.51 | to accept? All, all you cannot bring forward with you is fear, for | fear is the cause of the state of learning. You may have thought |
D:Day4.51 | of continuing relationship, would not have been cause for | fear in and of itself. Had you still known relationship, fear could |
D:Day4.51 | cause for fear in and of itself. Had you still known relationship, | fear could not have separated you from truth and you would not have |
D:Day4.51 | you are here coming to know once again, which is why the time of | fear, and along with it the time of learning, can cease to be. |
D:Day4.52 | I have not so directly linked | fear and the time of learning before, but now you need to see their |
D:Day4.52 | see their connection, for if you do not, you will not realize that | fear is all that needs to be left behind. You will still think you |
D:Day4.53 | to move you through the layers of illusion that have disguised your | fear, to move you beyond false learning to the truth that only needs |
D:Day4.53 | that only needs to be accepted. If you can move forward without | fear, you can move forward. If you can move forward without fear, you |
D:Day4.53 | without fear, you can move forward. If you can move forward without | fear, you will move forward only with love. If you move forward only |
D:Day4.53 | have realized there is nothing unacceptable about who you are except | fear. |
D:Day4.54 | you can wholeheartedly desire to move forward with love and without | fear and that there is still anything that can hold you back. This is |
D:Day4.54 | acceptance was meant to show you! Nothing can hold you back except | fear! You do not have to be perfect—perfect is but a label, and all |
D:Day4.54 | delay. You only have to be accepting. Accepting of all that you are. | Fear is not a part of what you are, which is why it cannot remain |
D:Day4.55 | behind the time of wandering, seeking, learning. To leave behind | fear for the embrace of the love and safety of your true home. |
D:Day4.56 | to heart. To have the kind of discourse that can only be had without | fear. To truly experience relationship. It is from this beginning |
D:Day7.2 | saw yourself as separate and alone, you could not help but suffer | fear, loneliness, and all the ills that came from the base emotion of |
D:Day7.2 | loneliness, and all the ills that came from the base emotion of | fear. Fear is degenerating. Nothing about fear is life giving. You |
D:Day7.2 | and all the ills that came from the base emotion of fear. | Fear is degenerating. Nothing about fear is life giving. You thus |
D:Day7.2 | from the base emotion of fear. Fear is degenerating. Nothing about | fear is life giving. You thus were given life only to have it become |
D:Day7.2 | You thus were given life only to have it become degenerated by | fear. |
D:Day7.3 | your Self. You are no longer denying unity. You have replaced | fear with love. Love is life giving and life supporting. There is |
D:Day7.5 | must accept, now, that the pattern of learning is an extension of | fear and be willing and vigilant in replacing it with a pattern of |
D:Day7.6 | Love replaces | fear and is life-generating rather than life-degenerating. Your |
D:Day7.6 | an attribute, but the effect of living from love rather than from | fear will have a major transformative effect on form in this time of |
D:Day7.7 | your ability to exist in the here and now in acceptance and without | fear. |
D:Day7.8 | in learning and separation. They exist in love. They do not exist in | fear. As with Christ-consciousness, you are moving from a place of |
D:Day7.9 | the body. Yet it was only your mind's acceptance of the condition of | fear that led the body to exhibit the conditions of fear in the time |
D:Day7.9 | the condition of fear that led the body to exhibit the conditions of | fear in the time of learning. Thus it is the mind's acceptance of |
D:Day8.12 | you will realize that the self of intolerance was the self of | fear. Acceptance of yourself, in love, leads to acceptance of others. |
D:Day8.13 | illusion, what would seem to be the “fact” of their gossip—to the | fear that feeds it, and beyond the fear to the love that will dispel |
D:Day8.13 | “fact” of their gossip—to the fear that feeds it, and beyond the | fear to the love that will dispel it. You are not called to walk away |
D:Day8.17 | of illusion would have been to accept the feelings generated by the | fear of the ego thought system or the bitterness of your heart. It |
D:Day8.21 | Now you must realize that you no longer have cause to | fear your feelings. They will no longer be the source of the |
D:Day9.6 | freedom is no more. Yet it is not an outward source that you must | fear or protect your freedom against. It is none other than yourself |
D:Day10.37 | causes, political causes. The cause of all these issues is | fear. The cause and effect of love is all that will replace these |
D:Day10.37 | cause and effect of love is all that will replace these causes of | fear with the means and end that will transform them along with you. |
D:Day13.6 | to the question of evil and the final lifting of the last veils of | fear. |
D:Day13.7 | The same is true of all you would | fear, such as the suffering self. A suffering self, held within the |
D:Day13.7 | way that you become completely fearless and totally spacious, for | fear is part of the density of form, being a lack of love. |
D:Day13.8 | Once | fear is gone, true relationship is not only possible but inevitable. |
D:Day14.2 | within. Thus, sickness is a rejection of feelings. All that causes | fear is rejection of feelings. All that causes loneliness is |
D:Day14.7 | those things that were held in a “holding pattern” were based on | fear. You feared them because you did not understand them and could |
D:Day15.13 | your readiness continue to persist, remember that doubt is caused by | fear. Examine what you fear. Is it really the stones within your |

D:Day16.10 | You have no feelings that are bad. | Fear is not a feeling but a response to a feeling. Emotions are |

C:1.18 | of fear. This is all there is. This is the world you make. Love or | fear is your reality by your choice. A choice for love creates love. |
C:1.18 | that is real. A choice for love is a choice for heaven. A choice of | fear is hell. Neither are a place. They are a further reflection of |
C:4.5 | All fear ends when proof of your existence is established. All | fear is based on your inability to recognize love and thus who you |
C:5.30 | God cannot be seen in illusion nor known to those who fear him. All | fear is fear of relationships and thus fear of God. You can accept |
C:6.21 | to do to you? At best you see them as delusional. But what you | fear is disappointment. All that you have wished for and have not |

C:9.25 | this insane idea's validity. It is your proof as well that a life of | fear is warranted. How could you not fear for the safety of a home as |
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:12.20 | of separation, the external aspect of life would not exist. Just as | fear is not real although it seems to be, separation is not real |
C:13.12 | else. No reason for guilt will exist within this memory. No shame or | fear is here, and no grievances of any kind. For here forgiveness is |
C:14.15 | or even accept that it is vanity, before you would call it fear. But | fear is what it is. |
C:14.28 | fear. Fear, through your own choice, replaces and discards love. | Fear is always strongest when you value something that you feel may |
C:17.14 | become part of the whole along with you. All that has proceeded from | fear is nothing, and has no existence apart from your own thoughts. |
C:25.5 | there is fear, love is hidden. Love is rejected when a choice for | fear is made. You cannot be without love, but you can reject love. |
C:26.7 | No | fear is greater than the fear of meaninglessness. And, as stated |

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 |
T3:19.8 | 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 |

D:Day4.52 | see their connection, for if you do not, you will not realize that | fear is all that needs to be left behind. You will still think you |

D:Day16.10 | You have no feelings that are bad. | Fear is not a feeling but a response to a feeling. Emotions are |

Tx:14.18 | what they keep obscure is fearful. But let them go, and what was | fearful will be so no longer. Without protection of obscurity, only |
Tx:14.23 | Him, and let His gentleness teach you that in the light they are not | fearful and cannot serve to guard the dark doors behind which |
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:16.56 | Salvation lies in the simple fact that illusions are not | fearful because they are not true. They but seem to be fearful to |
Tx:16.56 | are not fearful because they are not true. They but seem to be | fearful to the extent to which you fail to recognize them for what |
Tx:16.67 | and despair and see it thus. What guilt has wrought is ugly, | fearful, and very dangerous. See no illusion of truth and beauty |
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:18.17 | to accept. And so you substitute the fantasy that reality is | fearful, not what you would do to it. And thus is guilt made real. |
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:18.38 | from guilt has been to bring Atonement to it and make salvation | fearful. And it is only fear that you will add if you prepare |
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:19.100 | but not with fear. For only if they share in it does it seem | fearful, and you do share in it until you look upon each other with |
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:2.72 | under your will, where it does not belong. This means that you | feel responsible for it. The level confusion here is obvious. |
Tx:2.74 | When you are fearful, you have willed wrongly. This is why you | feel responsible for it. You must change your mind, not your |
Tx:2.93 | small part of the day and somewhat inconsistently even then. You may | feel at this point that it would take a miracle to enable you to do |
Tx:3.42 | in which attack is always possible. Man has every reason to | feel afraid as he perceives himself. This is why he cannot escape |
Tx:3.65 | When you | feel tired, it is merely because you have judged yourself as capable |
Tx:3.65 | idea of being more debased than they are. All of this does make you | feel tired because it is essentially disheartening. You are not |
Tx:3.71 | There is no man who does not | feel that he is imprisoned in some way. If this is the result of his |
Tx:3.79 | is why you become so fearful. As you approach the beginning, you | feel the fear of the destruction of your thought system upon you, as |
Tx:4.27 | the love that animals have for their own offspring and the need they | feel to protect them. This is because they regard them as part of |
Tx:4.49 | of yourself the will to separate, which conflicts with the love you | feel for what you made because you made it. No human love is |
Tx:4.61 | When you | feel guilty, know that the ego has indeed violated the laws of God, |
Tx:4.61 | your ego has hurt, the Atonement cannot release you. As long as you | feel guilty, your ego is in command because only the ego can |
Tx:5.68 | own thought and must therefore obey its orders. This makes them | feel responsible for their mind errors, without recognizing that by |
Tx:5.94 | the usual sense because this implies guilt. If you allow yourself to | feel guilty, you will reinforce the error rather than allow it to |
Tx:5.95 | have made a decision not to be wholly joyous if that is how you | feel. Therefore, the first step in the undoing is to recognize that |
Tx:5.96 | to decide otherwise, because I want to be at peace. I do not | feel guilty, because the Holy Spirit will undo all the consequences |
Tx:6.27 | separation going. It is solely a device of the ego to make you | feel different from your brothers and separated from them. The ego |
Tx:7.70 | Whenever you deny a blessing to a brother, you will | feel deprived. This is because denial is as total as love. It is as |
Tx:7.78 | did not value it and therefore did not want it. This makes you | feel deprived of it, and by projecting your own rejection, you |
Tx:8.25 | can disobey them. Yet if you do, and only if you do, you will | feel lonely and helpless, because you are denying yourself everything. |
Tx:8.77 | A learning device is not a teacher. It cannot tell you how you | feel. You do not know how you feel, because you have accepted the |
Tx:8.77 | It cannot tell you how you feel. You do not know how you | feel, because you have accepted the ego's confusion, and you |
Tx:8.77 | and you think that a learning device can tell you how you | feel. Sickness is merely another example of your insistence on asking |
Tx:8.77 | does not know the answer. The ego is incapable of knowing how you | feel. When we said that the ego does not know anything, we said the |
Tx:8.105 | panic, because you are trying to make yourself unreal. When you | feel these things, do not try to look beyond yourself for truth, |
Tx:9.66 | not remember being awake. When you hear the Holy Spirit, you merely | feel better because loving seems possible to you, but you do not |
Tx:9.104 | If God knows His Children to be wholly joyous, it is blasphemous to | feel depressed. All of these illusions and the many other forms which |
Tx:10.74 | This is a very simple course. Perhaps you do not | feel that a course which, in the end, teaches nothing more than that |
Tx:11.75 | an essential part of the Holy Spirit's teaching. For as long as you | feel guilty, you are listening to the voice of the ego, which tells |
Tx:11.85 | If you did not | feel guilty, you could not attack, for condemnation is the root of |
Tx:13.22 | guilt upon him or share it with him or perceive his own, you will | feel guilty. Nor will you find satisfaction and peace with him, |
Tx:13.79 | so is to evaluate his Father and judge against Him. And you will | feel guilty for this imagined crime, which no one in this world or |
Tx:13.87 | you do, you will still think that you are separate from Him. You can | feel His Presence next to you but cannot know that you are one with |
Tx:13.89 | You will | feel guilty till you learn this. For in the end, whatever form it |
Tx:15.74 | anger. All anger is nothing more than an attempt to make someone | feel guilty, and this attempt is the only basis which the ego |
Tx:15.75 | with a body is not communication. And if you think it is, you will | feel guilty about communication and will be afraid to hear the Holy |
Tx:16.44 | hate together, and even those who believe that hate is sin merely | feel guilty and do not correct it. |
Tx:18.46 | When you | feel the holiness of your relationship is threatened by anything, |
Tx:19.60 | this for which you would deny a home to peace. This “sacrifice” you | feel to be too great to make, too much to ask of you. |
Tx:19.82 | is useful for your holy purpose. The body no more dies than it can | feel. It does nothing. Of itself, it is neither corruptible nor |
Tx:19.90 | What would you see without the fear of death? What would you | feel and think if death held no attraction for you? Very simply, you |
Tx:20.44 | Be comforted and | feel the Holy Spirit watching over you in love and perfect confidence |
Tx:21.26 | And if you think 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 |
Tx:21.41 | quite appropriate and smiles approvingly. It has no fear to let you | feel ashamed. It doubts not your belief and faith in sin. Its temples |
Tx:22.50 | Forget not, when you | feel the need arise to be defensive about anything, you have |
Tx:22.50 | you have identified yourself with an illusion. And therefore | feel that you are weak because you are alone. This is the cost of |
Tx:23.40 | the stairs to Heaven or the way to hell? Quite easily. How do you | feel? Is peace in your awareness? Are you certain which way you go? |
Tx:23.41 | the massive guilt and frantic fear of punishment the murderer must | feel? He may deny he is a murderer and justify his savagery with |
Tx:24.6 | “beneath” the special one is “natural” and “just.” The special ones | feel weak and frail because of differences, for what would make |
Tx:24.70 | gone. Yet you are reassured that it is there because you still can | feel it with your hands and hear it move. Here is an image that you |
Tx:24.70 | true. It gives the eyes with which you look on it, the hands that | feel it, and the ears with which you listened to the sounds it makes. |
Tx:25.32 | Minds that are joined and recognize they are can | feel no guilt. For they cannot attack, and they rejoice that this is |
Tx:25.85 | were unjust to one with equal rights. Seek to deny, and you will | feel denied. Seek to deprive, and you have been deprived. A miracle |
Tx:26.59 | while cherishing attack. Its failure lies in that you still | feel guilty, though without understanding why. Effects are seen as |
Tx:26.71 | loss is not your fear. But present joining is your dread. Who can | feel desolation except now? A future cause as yet has no effects. |
Tx:27.57 | holds within. Nor could it tell a part of God Himself what it should | feel and what its function is. Yet must He love whatever you hold |
Tx:27.86 | truth. Whatever seems to be the cause of any pain and suffering you | feel, this is still true. For you would not react at all to figures |
Tx:28.54 | has no need to be competitive. It can be victimized but cannot | feel itself as victim. It accepts no role but does what it is told, |

W1:32.4 | a time when few distractions are anticipated and when you yourself | feel reasonably ready. |
W1:34.5 | The shorter applications are to be frequent and made whenever you | feel your peace of mind is threatened in any way. The purpose is to |
W1:34.7 | take several minutes and devote them to repeating the idea until you | feel some sense of relief. It will help you if you tell yourself |

W1:60.3 | I recognize His reflection on earth. I forgive all things because I | feel the stirring of His strength in me. And I begin to remember the |
W1:67.6 | you will do much today to bring that awareness nearer, whether you | feel you have succeeded or not. |

W1:91.9 | Spirit uses to replace the image of a body in your mind. You need to | feel something to put your faith in, as you lift it from the body. |

W1:94.3 | devote the first five minutes of each waking hour to the attempt to | feel the truth in you. Begin these times of searching with these |
W1:95.16 | Repeat this several times, and then attempt to | feel the meaning which the words convey. You are One Self, united and |
W1:95.18 | Feel this One Self in you, and let it shine away all your illusions | |
W1:95.18 | and His love forever yours. You are One Self, and it is given you to | feel this Self within you and to cast all your illusions out of the |
W1:107.2 | you imagine what a state of mind without illusions is? How it would | feel? Try to remember when there was a time—perhaps a minute, maybe |

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 |

W1:157.3 | Today it will be given you to | feel a touch of Heaven, though you will return to paths of learning. |
W1:161.5 | It seems to be the body that we | feel limits our freedom, makes us suffer, and at last puts out our |
W1:166.8 | You cower fearfully lest you should | feel Christ's touch upon your shoulder and perceive His gentle hand |

W1:182.1 | the Voice nor what it is the Voice reminds you of. Yet still you | feel an alien here, from somewhere all unknown. Nothing so definite |

W1:189.2 | Who could | feel fear in such a world as this? It welcomes you, rejoices that you |
W1:189.4 | is the world of hatred equally unseen and inconceivable to those who | feel God's Love in them. Their world reflects the quietness and peace |

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:10.31 | in it despite your determination not to do so. Once you begin to | feel the effects of the experiment you will also encounter fear, |
C:10.31 | you will welcome back your tunnel vision with gratitude. You will | feel relieved that your feet still touch the ground and that the |
C:11.3 | begin in order to keep from failing one more time. Even those who | feel the power of these words within their hearts and vow to go |
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:11.10 | flaunt them before God, is all that makes your little separated self | feel powerful at all. |
C:11.14 | choice, though a lasting choice will be required before you will | feel the shift of cause and quit worrying about effect. For now what |
C:11.16 | to you quickly on the wings of angels, a fluttering your heart will | feel, for angels too are one with you. It may feel like loneliness |
C:11.16 | your heart will feel, for angels too are one with you. It may | feel like loneliness compounded for the brief instant you await its |
C:11.16 | loneliness compounded for the brief instant you await its coming and | feel the emptiness that has been opened for its coming. |
C:12.2 | You | feel a little duped at being told love is the answer. You feel a |
C:12.2 | You feel a little duped at being told love is the answer. You | feel a little chastised to be told you know love not. You feel a |
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:20.29 | cannot be contained, and it is not within your power to limit it. To | feel the holiness of the embrace is to release its power. While |
C:20.41 | of your Father's perfect love for you. Look deep inside and | feel your heart's gladness. Your construction was no mistake. You are |
C:21.3 | is eternity itself. It is the face of love, its texture, taste, and | feel. It is love conceptualized. It is an abstract rather than a |
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:25.9 | have integrated the most basic teaching of this Course and no longer | feel duped by life. All of your contests of will are supported by |
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 |
C:31.19 | to help you remember who you are. Those things about which you | feel guilt and shame are simply the remnants of lessons unlearned. |
T1:1.3 | been provided within A Course of Love. That your learning does not | feel complete is not a failing of this Course or of yourself. That |
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 |
T1:4.10 | Think of all you now | feel responsible for and this lesson will become more clear. While |
T1:4.16 | response to who you are. What might such a response sound like? | Feel like? Look like? It is a response of pure appreciation and love. |
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 | person or system or organization. You as often feel indebted as you | feel grateful for the meeting of needs. When your life is running |
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 |
T3:14.2 | living a simple life. If you have felt a lack of respect you may | feel that what others think of you matters not and enjoy a heightened |
T3:14.2 | are held but not lived. Soon these fragile states would be sure to | feel threatened by some situation or person and judgment would return |
T3:14.10 | is the time to let them go. If you have read the paragraph above and | feel it is fine for some others not to regret their choices but not |
T3:14.10 | to leave this blaming of yourself behind, no matter what it is you | feel you have need to blame yourself for. You would not be here if |
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:Day3.29 | 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:Day18.4 | this. The universe is comprised of no superfluous elements. What you | feel called to is needed. |

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 | 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 | 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 |

C:8.6 | You think of the heart as the place of | feeling, and thus you associate emotions with your heart. Emotions, |
C:8.6 | situations either too many feelings are going on all at once or all | feeling is shut down all at once. As with everything else in this |

C:8.20 | You may begin by | feeling compassion toward this body that you have long viewed as your |
C:8.21 | is your natural home and heaven to your soul. On other days your | feeling will be quite the opposite, and you will wonder where you |
C:9.47 | in an instant. There will be no long remembering of regrets, no | feeling badly for all the years in which you saw this not. There will |

C:11.3 | than you now know, and why you begin each new course of learning by | feeling as if you have less. You then begin your attempts to acquire |
C:11.4 | success in learning what love is all about is as ridiculous as | feeling as if you have failed to learn what love is. Neither can |

C:20.16 | There is no longer cause for alienation, nor for the | feeling of abandonment so many of you have felt. You are now within |
C:20.44 | them. To serve rather than to use is an enormous change in thinking, | feeling, and acting. It will immediately make the world a kinder, |
C:22.22 | As odd and impersonal as it will seem at first, I assure you the | feeling of impersonality will be replaced quickly with an intimacy |
C:25.4 | imitations of love are immediately felt. You may choose to deny the | feeling, but you cannot prevent it from occurring. You can attempt to |
C:25.7 | nothing. Yet it is your lack of ability to receive that causes this | feeling. The practice of devotion is a means by which you can purify |
C:25.20 | a desire to create anew. At this stage, this desire will come from a | feeling of needing to reassert the self. This need will arise as you |
C:25.22 | Practice discernment by being still and awaiting wisdom. Your | feeling of being identity-less will make decision-making and choices |
C:25.22 | choices will seem to need to be made with increasing frequency. Your | feeling of needing to make new choices, while strong, will not |

T1:1.8 | a Course that left you with an erroneous impression that relying on | feeling alone would complete your learning would in actuality leave |
T1:2.13 | heart. It might be a shared experience, one in which you share the | feeling of awe inspired by this sight with one you love. It might be |
T1:4.22 | previous lessons. To form a new opinion about something gives you a | feeling of open-mindedness and growth. Lay aside your desire for |
T1:7.1 | Take away all, for the moment, that you would strive to be, and the | feeling of not being able to be accomplished or complete will still |
T1:9.12 | For females this has most often meant a turning away from the | feeling realm where their egos held most sway, toward the |
T1:9.13 | self-image? And did this threat occur at what you would call the | feeling level or at the intellectual level? Were your feelings hurt |
T1:9.15 | The first will feel like an intellectual position. The second like a | feeling position. Turning away from the intellectual position to one |
T1:9.15 | position. Turning away from the intellectual position to one of | feeling will most readily and quickly solve the first. The second |
T1:10.1 | that you can't quite imagine that it is what you are supposed to be | feeling. There is a core of peace at the center of your Self now and |
T2:1.4 | exploring your internal treasure is now unnecessary. You may well be | feeling a sense of relief in having learned that who you are right |
T2:7.19 | Does this mean that you are required to express every thought and | feeling that comes your way? No, but this does mean that you bring |
T2:9.7 | what needs to be done in order to survive is hardly the same as | feeling that one has a need. Needs are the domain of the thinking |
T2:10.14 | within it as who you are in truth. It releases you from the | feeling of needing to control or protect your treasure. It releases |

D:17.20 | been discussing. You recognize them because they are what you are | feeling. You may wonder still, however, how you can be told that you |
D:Day2.6 | And yet you cannot still some of your regrets. The | feeling is not as strong as it once was, and you are very unlikely to |

D:Day2.7 | This is the | feeling that will prevent you from receiving the secret of |
D:Day2.7 | the secret of succession. It is like the force of gravity, a | feeling that you will not be able to remain at this height long |
D:Day2.8 | Part of this | feeling arises from erroneous ideas that remain regarding your |
D:Day2.8 | ideas that remain regarding your unworthiness. Part of this | feeling arises from the erroneous idea that you can fail, even here. |
D:Day3.8 | that having a spiritual context for your life will assist you in | feeling more loved and possibly even assist you in finding some one |
D:Day3.8 | one to love. You may believe that this spirituality can help mend a | feeling of broken-heartedness, can cause you to extend forgiveness to |
D:Day3.8 | who hurt you, to make amends to those you hurt, or to simply quit | feeling guilty or bitter, shamed or rejected because of them. But you |

D:Day36.15 | To be a being of | feeling, thought, creativity and knowing or perception is to be one |
D:Day37.13 | you have power—the power of being which is the power of thought, | feeling, creating, and perceiving or knowing. |
D:Day37.16 | What is being said is that you are simply being. You are being a | feeling, thinking, creating, perceiving human being because this is |

Tx:4.56 | to the voice of your ego is demonstrated by your attitudes, your | feelings, and your behavior. Your attitudes are obviously conflicted, |
Tx:4.56 | and your behavior. Your attitudes are obviously conflicted, your | feelings have a narrow range on the negative side but are never |
Tx:4.64 | step away from them. Judge how well you have done this by your own | feelings, for this is the one right use of judgment. Judgment, like |
Tx:5.48 | that the real difference between neurotic and “healthy” guilt | feelings is that neurotic guilt feelings do not help anyone. This |
Tx:5.48 | between neurotic and “healthy” guilt feelings is that neurotic guilt | feelings do not help anyone. This distinction is wise though |
Tx:5.48 | Let us make the distinction a little sharper now. Neurotic guilt | feelings are a device of the ego for “atoning” without sharing and |
Tx:5.49 | the healing potential it holds. You made the distinction in terms of | feelings, which led to a decision not to repeat the error, which is |
Tx:5.68 | orders your thought because your thought was created by Him. Guilt | feelings are always a sign that you do not know this. They also show |
Tx:5.70 | to remain separated is the only possible reason for continuing guilt | feelings. We have said this before, but we did not emphasize the |
Tx:5.72 | Guilt | feelings are the preservers of time. They induce fears of future |
Tx:7.55 | itself as loving. This loses the awareness of being, induces | feelings of unreality, and results in utter confusion. Your own |
Tx:12.2 | but you are actually merely concealing it. You do experience guilt | feelings, but you have no idea why. On the contrary, you associate |
Tx:13.56 | the distortions you have made of nothing—all the strange forms and | feelings and actions and reactions that you have woven out of it. |
Tx:19.73 | And just as certainly, it has no feeling. It transmits to you the | feelings that you want. Like any communication medium, the body |
Tx:21.15 | I am responsible for what I see. I chose the | feelings I experience, and I decided on the goal I would achieve. And |
Tx:21.25 | by itself and capable of serving as a cause of the events and | feelings its maker thinks it causes. Long ago we spoke of your desire |
Tx:21.50 | You will experience depression, a sense of worthlessness, and | feelings of impermanence and unreality. You will believe that you are |
Tx:30.7 | for reflection, tell yourself again the kind of day you want, the | feelings you would have, the things you want to happen to you, and |
W1:3.1 | see may have emotionally-charged meaning for you. Try to lay such | feelings aside, and merely use these things exactly as you would |
W1:5.10 | name of both the source of the upset as you perceive it and of the | feelings as you experience it. Further examples are: |
W1:34.8 | I can replace my | feelings of depression, anxiety or worry [or my thoughts about this |
W1:47.6 | that any situation that causes you concern is associated with | feelings of inadequacy, since otherwise you would believe that you |

C:4.14 | of the aging. It is synonymous with passion and an overflow of | feelings that defy all common sense. To be in love is to be |
C:5.11 | the urges that you feel are real, and neither good nor bad. Your | feelings in truth come from love, your response to them is what is |
C:5.11 | from love, your response to them is what is guided by fear. Even | feelings of destruction and violence come from love. You are not bad, |
C:5.11 | and violence come from love. You are not bad, and you have no | feelings that can be labeled so. Yet you are misguided concerning |
C:5.11 | that can be labeled so. Yet you are misguided concerning what your | feelings mean and how they would bring love to you and you to love. |
C:5.23 | cost becomes quite real. Rather than feeling as if you have gained, | feelings of loss will now be what you fight to overcome. What have |
C:7.21 | senses are seen as suspect. And yet you accept many causes for your | feelings, from variations in the weather to unseen and unverifiable |
C:8.6 | or even a nervous breakdown. In these situations either too many | feelings are going on all at once or all feeling is shut down all at |
C:8.6 | beat at one steady pace, for one emotion to surface at a time, for | feelings that you can control. And yet you feel controlled by your |
C:8.6 | feelings that you can control. And yet you feel controlled by your | feelings, emotions that seem to have a life of their own, and a body |
C:8.7 | vengeance, pain for your remembering. It is to your emotions, those | feelings that you would say come from your own heart. |
C:9.2 | to protect your heart, or any of those bodies that you love, your | feelings would retain their innocence and could not hurt you in any |
C:9.13 | perception of your emotions and all that causes you to feel. In your | feelings, especially those you cannot name, lies your connection to |

C:9.14 | Feelings that on their own seem to rebel against this insane | |
C:9.14 | self. It is in the attempts of the separated self to interpret what | feelings would say that they become as distorted as all the rest. It |
C:9.14 | all the rest. It is the separated self that feels impelled to label | feelings good and bad, some worthy of acknowledgment and the rest |
C:10.1 | to tell you what you feel and bid you act in accordance with its | feelings, how can this be so? The body by itself is neutral. But as |
C:10.30 | Self. As you feel this happening, you will begin to be aware of | feelings too that are not bound to the body. Like the thoughts you |
C:10.30 | you neither see nor hear with your body's eyes or ears, these | feelings too will not depend upon your body's senses. |
C:13.4 | you feel into words, this exercise is not about putting words on | feelings or using them to describe spirit. It is best to leave words |
C:13.5 | what you are encouraged to feel, it is simply asked that you let the | feelings come and with them the realization that while no two spirits |

T1:4.19 | You who have thought that your interpretation of events and | feelings has given them their meaning—think again. Their meaning |

T1:9.13 | the intellectual level? Were your feelings hurt or your pride? Your | feelings called into question or your ideas? And what guise did the |
T1:10.2 | on occasion. You will wonder at the lack of extremes in your | feelings and want to bring them back. You will experience this loss |
T1:10.2 | when others around you experience extremes. A friend is experiencing | feelings on an extreme level and this will seem to tell you that this |

T2:4.8 | you who have not reacted to the idea of calling with two sets of | feelings and thoughts. One set of thoughts and feelings contain all |
T2:4.8 | with two sets of feelings and thoughts. One set of thoughts and | feelings contain all that one might attribute to the glad acceptance |
T2:4.8 | high value, or in other words, a treasure. One set of thoughts and | feelings contain all that one might attribute to the somewhat onerous |
T2:4.9 | While two sets of thoughts and | feelings exist, the only way to come to peace with them is through an |
T2:4.9 | to move through the conflict of two opposing sets of thoughts and | feelings to the place of unity. |
T2:4.10 | to calling is recognizing the dualistic nature of your thoughts and | feelings. A second step is willingness to move past both ambiguity |
T2:7.5 | Where is the cause for fear? What is the hidden source of your | feelings of lack or deprivation? What is the hidden source of your |
T2:7.17 | How often have you hidden thoughts and | feelings because you question whether they are legitimate thoughts |
T2:7.17 | because you question whether they are legitimate thoughts and | feelings? For some of you this answer has changed greatly over time. |
T2:7.17 | become less, rather than more forthcoming about your thoughts and | feelings since taking this Course. You have done so out of a desire |
T2:7.17 | out of a desire to be truthful, a desire to not express thoughts and | feelings unworthy of your real Self. You may have increasingly denied |
T2:7.17 | of your real Self. You may have increasingly denied thoughts and | feelings you would judge as negative or bad. Or you may have, in your |
T2:7.19 | your way? No, but this does mean that you bring the thoughts and | feelings that arise to the place within your heart that has been |
T3:8.3 | the ego has been to your mind. Thus bitterness has to do with your | feelings more so than your thoughts. The ego but played upon these |
T3:8.3 | feelings more so than your thoughts. The ego but played upon these | feelings, using them as building blocks for its thought system. As |
T3:8.3 | within you, you will remain in the house of illusion for your | feelings are as real to you as have been the thoughts of your |
T3:10.5 | thoughts that have formed a chain-reaction of situations and events, | feelings and behaviors that you had no realization were birthed from |
T3:19.5 | That these | feelings can be “acted out” by the body and in the acting out cause |
T3:20.6 | for the one suffering. Yet you are always drawn, despite these | feelings of the “badness” of the situation, to offer encouragement. |
D:6.21 | blaming you see as easily as that of blaming a friend for your hurt | feelings, or blaming the past for the present. And yet, what ridding |

D:14.14 | what becomes actualized through the expression of thoughts, | feelings, art, beauty, kind interactions, or miracles. What is real |
D:Day2.10 | Let me ask you now, are these | feelings—feelings that are attached to your belief that you have |
D:Day2.10 | Let me ask you now, are these feelings— | feelings that are attached to your belief that you have harmed others |
D:Day2.10 | that are attached to your belief that you have harmed others—not | feelings of sorrow? Are you not sorry for these actions? Have you not |
D:Day3.6 | the idea of this issue being finally discussed; but be aware of your | feelings as we proceed, for I tell you truly, here is where your |
D:Day3.15 | Yet how can you accept yourself when you have | feelings such as these? How can you accept the idea of inheritance |
D:Day3.48 | what you may have expected to hear, and you may feel a return of | feelings of anger here. But we have said that there is a function for |
D:Day5.5 | bypasses the realm of thought completely. Do not fight any of these | feelings or others that I have not named. Just consider them givens |
D:Day8.7 | —again, at least subconsciously—that your “real” Self has no | feelings of dislike, and in this confusion have been “trying” and |
D:Day8.9 | false ideas about acceptance may then have blocked your own true | feelings and true response. However, a simple acceptance that you do |
D:Day8.12 | and only of importance because of your intolerance of your own | feelings. |
D:Day8.14 | remnants of righteousness attached to it if you do not accept the | feelings generated by it. You may know that you dislike gossip only |
D:Day8.14 | been both a participant and a victim of it. It may still call up | feelings of shame or irritation. It may even still intrigue you if |
D:Day8.14 | from gossip, accepting that you do not like it without accepting the | feelings associated with it, will make of it a mental construct, a |
D:Day8.15 | will then act from a predetermined standard rather than feeling the | feelings associated with gossip in the present moment, you will soon |
D:Day8.17 | We have talked little of | feelings here, and there has been a reason for this discussion coming |
D:Day8.17 | this discussion coming so late in our time together. To accept the | feelings of the self of illusion would have been to accept the |
D:Day8.17 | the feelings of the self of illusion would have been to accept the | feelings generated by the fear of the ego thought system or the |
D:Day8.17 | or the bitterness of your heart. It would have been to accept the | feelings of a personal self who had not yet unlearned the lessons of |
D:Day8.18 | Another error can occur if you deny your | feelings in favor of the perceived higher path to enlightenment. In |
D:Day8.18 | of the perceived higher path to enlightenment. In denying your own | feelings you will tend also to deny the feelings of others. You will |
D:Day8.18 | In denying your own feelings you will tend also to deny the | feelings of others. You will think that you know the real from the |
D:Day8.18 | real from the unreal, truth from illusion, and so will disregard the | feelings of others as if they do not matter. This will only happen if |
D:Day8.18 | you allow yourself to deny and thus become distanced from your own | feelings. |
D:Day8.19 | the truth, to see beyond illusion, and then to be told to accept the | feelings of others? It should not. While true compassion sees only |
D:Day8.19 | true compassion sees only the truth, this does not mean it holds the | feelings of anyone—not those living in truth, or those living in |
D:Day8.19 | not living in the present. Distancing, or non-acceptance of your own | feelings, is not living in the present and will create an attitude |
D:Day8.19 | While you are prone to acceptance of that which you “like,” to those | feelings you think of as “good” feelings, you are still prone to |
D:Day8.19 | of that which you “like,” to those feelings you think of as “good” | feelings, you are still prone to non-acceptance of that which you do |
D:Day8.20 | true Self and the holiness of the true Self being expressed in the | feelings of a present moment situation, but see a future where the |
D:Day8.21 | Now you must realize that you no longer have cause to fear your | feelings. They will no longer be the source of the misdirection of |
D:Day8.21 | be the source of the misdirection of the past if you accept your | feelings in present time and begin to be aware of your natural |
D:Day8.21 | your natural ability to respond truly because you have accepted your | feelings in present time. This is a recognition that by being in the |
D:Day8.21 | This is a recognition that by being in the present you know your | feelings are of the truth. This is certainty. This is all that will |
D:Day8.21 | is certainty. This is all that will prevent you from “reacting” to | feelings out of your previous pattern. |
D:Day8.27 | that you do not like will pull you from union toward separation. All | feelings of non-acceptance lead to a feeling of needing to learn “how |
D:Day8.28 | no need to do this! How freeing it will be to accept all of your | feelings and not to puzzle over which are true and which are false! |
D:Day8.28 | true and which are false! To realize that you no longer have false | feelings. That your feelings are not misleading you but supporting |
D:Day8.28 | false! To realize that you no longer have false feelings. That your | feelings are not misleading you but supporting you! That they are but |
D:Day8.29 | Remove all thinking that says that you can err in following your | feelings. This is the thinking of the old thought system, not the |
D:Day8.29 | time-delay of the time of learning—of a time when you used your | feelings, opinions, and judgments interchangeably and either |
D:Day9.4 | You who do not feel confident in your | feelings, who do not feel confident in your ability to respond, who |
D:Day9.7 | is not quite true. You know that you censor your own thoughts and | feelings, accepting some and not others. You know you have repressed |
D:Day10.5 | were important to your self-confidence. These needs are tied to your | feelings and thus we will return to a discussion of feelings in |
D:Day10.5 | are tied to your feelings and thus we will return to a discussion of | feelings in connection with the ideas of confidence, reliance, and |
D:Day10.6 | Confidence in your | feelings will lead to confidence in your Self. While you think it is |
D:Day10.7 | The | feelings that lead you to either a state of confidence or to a state |
D:Day10.10 | to come more as thought than as feeling, but even so, it is your | feelings about such thoughts that will often determine how you act |
D:Day10.11 | thought, and intuition is different than rational thought, as are | feelings of all kinds. You think of feelings either as that which |
D:Day10.11 | than rational thought, as are feelings of all kinds. You think of | feelings either as that which comes to you through your five senses |
D:Day10.11 | your five senses or as emotions, and you have not trusted in these | feelings as much as you have trusted in rational thought. This lack |
D:Day10.11 | of the mind you call rational. It works against you because all | feelings are capable of providing what you have called intuitive |
D:Day10.12 | Feelings come from the innate knowing of the self of form—in short, | |
D:Day10.13 | of your personal self, you still hold inaccurate ideas about the | feelings of the personal self. This is because your image of the |
D:Day10.13 | because your image of the personal self is based on the past and the | feelings of the past. This is also because your image of the personal |
D:Day10.14 | Because you believe that your | feelings have misled you in the past, you now still doubt your |
D:Day10.14 | your feelings have misled you in the past, you now still doubt your | feelings. Because you have doubted yourself in the past, you now |
D:Day10.14 | To “know” before you act is wise. But to think that doubting your | feelings or seeking outside assurances of what you know will lead to |
D:Day10.25 | let me spend my final time with you as the man Jesus talking more of | feelings. |
D:Day10.26 | unlikely that in your image of an ideal self you left much room for | feelings of the type you currently experience. This is why we have |
D:Day10.26 | things which you dislike—why we have spoken, in short, of the | feelings you would think would have no place within the ideal self or |
D:Day10.29 | their feeling compassion and mercy, and of their acting upon those | feelings by championing the cause of good over that of evil or of the |
D:Day10.30 | act as these people have, but I am calling you to acknowledge that | feelings are involved at every level of every being you can imagine. |
D:Day10.30 | of, not about what you think. And you are very much aware of your | feelings. |
D:Day10.31 | If you are being called to acknowledge these | feelings, what are you being called to do with them? You are being |
D:Day10.32 | to and with. But this response will not be generated without the | feelings that precede them! When speaking of gossip we used a simple |
D:Day10.33 | any one side over another. Turn not to your thoughts but to your | feelings and go where they lead. And everywhere they lead you, |
D:Day10.37 | But these issues, when removed from | feelings, still remain issues. They remain social causes, |
D:Day10.38 | now, even in this final address to you as the man Jesus, to speak of | feelings without addressing the grand scheme of things. I want to |
D:Day10.38 | I want to tell you to be embraced by love and to let all the | feelings of love flowing through you now find their expression. I |
D:Day10.38 | you and what you want to hear. I know you have long waited for your | feelings to be addressed in a more personal way. But please remember |
D:Day10.38 | that none of the approaches that have been used to “address” your | feelings in the way you might desire have worked. This will work. |
D:Day12.1 | Now we listen to | feelings. Now we listen to feelings and understand what they have to |
D:Day12.1 | Now we listen to feelings. Now we listen to | feelings and understand what they have to say to us. Now we listen |
D:Day12.1 | of the heart. Now we recognize the thoughts that would censor our | feelings, calling them selfish, uncaring, or judgmental. We examine. |
D:Day12.1 | We examine. And we realize it is our thoughts and not our | feelings that are selfish, uncaring, or judgmental. We realize this |
D:Day12.2 | enclosed, surrounded, taken up, by consciousness. It is your | feelings that now will be the sense organs of this spaciousness. Not |
D:Day12.2 | feelings that now will be the sense organs of this spaciousness. Not | feelings of sight or sound, smell or touch, but feelings of love of |
D:Day12.2 | spaciousness. Not feelings of sight or sound, smell or touch, but | feelings of love of Self. Feelings of love of Self are now what hold |
D:Day12.2 | of sight or sound, smell or touch, but feelings of love of Self. | Feelings of love of Self are now what hold open the space of the |
D:Day14.2 | an extension of what is within. Thus, sickness is a rejection of | feelings. All that causes fear is rejection of feelings. All that |
D:Day14.2 | is a rejection of feelings. All that causes fear is rejection of | feelings. All that causes loneliness is rejection of feelings. All |
D:Day14.2 | is rejection of feelings. All that causes loneliness is rejection of | feelings. All that causes violence is rejection of feelings. |
D:Day14.2 | is rejection of feelings. All that causes violence is rejection of | feelings. |
D:Day14.3 | forgotten. The Spacious self no longer ejects or forgets because all | feelings are accepted as those of the One Self. |
D:Day14.4 | All | feelings are accepted as those of the many as well. It is by holding |
D:Day14.4 | are accepted as those of the many as well. It is by holding all | feelings of others within the spacious Self, by not forgetting that |
D:Day14.4 | the one and the many are the same, by willfully remembering that the | feelings of the many can be “held” and not projected into the world |
D:Day14.4 | violence, and so on, that acceptance occurs. It is in accepting all | feelings as the feelings of the many that the feelings of “others” |
D:Day14.4 | on, that acceptance occurs. It is in accepting all feelings as the | feelings of the many that the feelings of “others” are accepted as |
D:Day14.4 | It is in accepting all feelings as the feelings of the many that the | feelings of “others” are accepted as one's own and held within the |

D:Day16.4 | Sickness has been defined as rejected feelings, | feelings about which consciousness was not chosen. With this |

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:15.24 | must learn to remember all the time. The lesson will seem hard at | first, but you will learn to love it when you realize that it is true |
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 |
W1:108.4 | of one Thought Whose truth does not depend on which is seen as | first, nor which appears to be in second place. Here it is understood |
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 |
M:3.4 | teaching-learning situation and then appear to separate. As with the | first level, these meetings are not accidental, nor is what appears |
M:4.5 | First, they must go through what might be called “a period of | |
M:4.17 | agrees to look past them, he finds nothing was there. Slowly at | first, he lets himself be undeceived. But he learns faster as his |
M:5.4 | to me at all in this,” and he is healed. But to say this one must | first recognize certain facts. First, it is obvious that decisions |
M:5.4 | is healed. But to say this one must first recognize certain facts. | First, it is obvious that decisions are of the mind, not of the body. |
M:7.3 | worker because he gives the gifts he has received. Yet he must | first accept them. He need do no more, nor is there more that he |
M:7.4 | it seems to be just the opposite. It does appear unreasonable at | first to be told that continued concern is attack. It has all the |
M:9.1 | It is most unlikely that changes in his attitudes would not be the | first step in the newly-made teacher of God's training. There is |
M:13.1 | replaced by a corrective device, another illusion that replaces the | first, so both can finally disappear. The first illusion, which must |
M:13.1 | illusion that replaces the first, so both can finally disappear. The | first illusion, which must be displaced before another thought system |
M:17.1 | thus becomes a major lesson for the teacher of God to master. His | first responsibility in this is not to attack it. If a magic thought |
M:19.2 | is no inherent conflict between justice and truth; one is but the | first small step in the direction of the other. The path becomes |
M:20.2 | First, how can the peace of God be recognized? God's peace is | |
M:20.2 | how can the peace of God be recognized? God's peace is recognized at | first by just one thing—in every way it is totally unlike all |
M:20.2 | away and in its place is everlasting quiet. Only that. The contrast | first perceived has merely gone. Quiet has reached to cover |
M:29.1 | In some cases, it may be helpful for the pupil to read the manual | first. Others might do better to begin with the workbook. Still |

C:P.2 | To pray is to ask. But for what are you asking? This is the | first instruction in this course in miracles. All are in need of |
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:7.9 | and the world that seems to hold you separate. This is, indeed, the | first and most general lesson in regard to withholding: The world |
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:13.1 | where you belong. This seeming togetherness of bodies is just a | first step that will take you beyond the illusion of bodies to |
C:13.5 | you recall of spirit is love. You will want to give it many names at | first, and might not even recognize it as love, for it will come |
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:19.4 | world be what it is will begin the transformation. This requires the | first unification, the unification of mind and heart, after which |
C:19.5 | to change your beliefs and to place your faith securely in them. The | first step in leading you to experience of another kind is your |
C:19.23 | our ultimate goal is to move beyond perception to knowledge, a | first step in doing this is changing your means of perception to that |
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 |
C:32.1 | Let us | first consider the roles of teacher and learner. A teacher is first |
C:32.1 | Let us first consider the roles of teacher and learner. A teacher is | first and foremost anything that aids your remembering. Thus look not |
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 |
T1:5.13 | by being willing to replace the old with the new. While this will at | first be a learned activity, and as such have its moments of seeming |
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 |
T2:1.3 | Treasure in the | first sense is, first and foremost, something that you believe exists |
T2:1.3 | Treasure in the first sense is, | first and foremost, something that you believe exists and have |
T2:1.5 | end that is sought. No matter how peaceful this place of rest may at | first seem, it will soon become stagnant and unsatisfying. Left in |
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 |
T2:7.4 | First let us replace your idea of “others” with the idea of | |
T2:7.19 | has been prepared for them. You do not deny them. You bring them | first to your Self, to the Self joined in unity at the place of your |
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 |
T3:1.5 | As with much of our previous work, the | first step in advancing toward this goal is in developing an |
T3:3.7 | worked together to integrate into your thought system, are only a | first step, a step toward holy relationship. These new beliefs of |
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 |
T3:11.16 | This | first lesson on the temptation of the human experience comes in truth |
T3:14.13 | the past. Like a story yet to be written, that which follows the | first page will be based upon the first page. |
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:Day4.60 | needed to begin this movement. Followers will naturally succeed the | first although this will occur with no fanfare and no “one” to |
D:Day4.60 | although this will occur with no fanfare and no “one” to follow. The | first will create a series. Thus will the secret of succession be |
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 |
D:Day6.15 | will have to come first, lack of cause for worry will have to come | first, an ability to focus on other than daily life will have to come |
D:Day6.15 | an ability to focus on other than daily life will have to come | first. These are what these continuing dialogues will facilitate. |

D:Day15.5 | not be observed physically. This practice had two purposes. The | first purpose was the establishment of a new kind of interaction and |
D:Day15.13 | is to your own authority only that you must appeal for guidance. The | first step is to access your own readiness. Are you able to be a |
D:Day17.7 | Christ-consciousness is not the second coming of Christ but the | first coming—the movement of being into form. This being was fully |
D:Day17.7 | was fully expressed by Jesus Christ, who represented, in form, the | first coming and who began the movement from maintenance to |
D:Day20.3 | This is the | first transition, the transition in which you really “get it” that |
D:Day20.10 | Apply the art of thought to this idea and you will complete the | first transition. |
D:Day21.1 | The | first transition, as you have probably already realized, is about a |
D:Day21.8 | will make of you a creator. But it can only happen if you make the | first transition. |
D:Day21.10 | is the aim of our final time together. Concentrate on making the | first transition and on the reversal of thought that it requires. |
D:Day22.2 | is the way in which life itself can be seen as a channel. Since the | first transition involves realizing that you are the expression of |
D:Day28.3 | The | first stage of awareness is a stage of simple external movement |

Tx:13.51 | thoughts wholly of you, the thought system which you made would be | forever dark. The thoughts which the Mind of God's Son projects have |

Tx:14.46 | His Children and their own, the knowledge of creation must continue | forever. The reflections which you accept into the mirror of your |
Tx:14.57 | will recognize it. And God Himself, Who wills to be with His Son | forever, will bless each recognition of His Son with all the love He |
Tx:14.59 | for all of it to be undone, and be glad that you are not bound to it | forever. For you have taught yourselves how to imprison the Son of |
Tx:14.60 | Atonement teaches you how to escape | forever from everything that you have taught yourselves in the past |
Tx:15.8 | guilt until it becomes all-encompassing and demands vengeance | forever. |
Tx:15.9 | God emerges from the past into the present. And the present extends | forever. It is so beautiful and so clean and free of guilt that |

Tx:15.15 | of the eternal sanctity of God's creation, it is transformed into | forever. Give the eternal instant that eternity may be remembered |

Tx:15.18 | would have you? For you are where you have forever been and will | forever be. All that you have, you have forever. The blessed instant |
Tx:15.18 | have forever been and will forever be. All that you have, you have | forever. The blessed instant reaches out to encompass time, as God |
Tx:15.27 | Himself to you in your creation, He established you as host to Him | forever. He has not left you, and you have not left Him. All your |
Tx:15.29 | you. Far beyond your little world but still in you, He extends | forever. Yet He brings all his extensions to you as host to Him. |
Tx:15.31 | you are of your Father. Let us join in honoring you, who must remain | forever beyond littleness. |
Tx:15.32 | I will as my Father wills, knowing His Will is constant and at peace | forever with Itself. You will be content with nothing but His Will. |
Tx:15.34 | not that his call is yours, and answer him with me. God's power is | forever on the side of His host, for it protects only the peace in |
Tx:15.40 | You could live | forever in the holy instant, beginning now and reaching to |
Tx:15.42 | and am I wholly willing to let everything that interferes with it go | forever?” If the answer is no, then the Holy Spirit's readiness to |
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:19.8 | Truth and illusion have no connection. This will remain | forever true, however much you seek to connect them. But illusions |
Tx:19.11 | in him, and he was healed because you looked on what makes faith | forever justified in everyone. |
Tx:19.15 | longer needed when the lesson has been learned. Yet truth will stay | forever. |
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:25.35 | while, in twisted forms too far away for recognition and are gone | forever. And in the sunlight you will stand in quiet, in innocence, |
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:27.11 | represents. Let it receive the power to represent an endless life, | forever unattacked. And to your brother let its message be, “Behold |
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:28.15 | it with Himself. His memory has not gone by and left a stranded Son | forever on a shore where he can glimpse another shore which he can |
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 |

W1:41.2 | The idea for today has the power to end all this foolishness | forever. And foolishness it is, despite the serious and tragic forms |
W1:43.1 | Without this link with God, perception would have replaced knowledge | forever in your minds. With this link with God, perception will |
W1:49.2 | identify with the part of your mind where stillness and peace reign | forever. Try to hear God's Voice call to you lovingly, reminding you |
W1:50.3 | your faith in the Love of God within you, eternal, changeless and | forever unfailing. This is the answer to whatever confronts you |
W1:50.4 | Heaven. Such is the resting place where your Father has placed you | forever. |
W1:56.5 | the Will of my Father. God is still everywhere and in everything | forever. And we who are part of Him will yet look past all |
W1:56.6 | thoughts of separation and attack, is the knowledge that all is one | forever. I have not lost the knowledge of who I am because I have |
W1:57.3 | in 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 |
W1:58.6 | directs me in all things. His care for me is infinite and is with me | forever. I am eternally blessed as His Son. |
W1:73.9 | with an illusion of strength. Today let your will be done. And end | forever the insane belief that it is hell in place of Heaven that you |
W1:75.11 | what you see will be so welcome that you will gladly extend today | forever. Say, then: |
W1:76.2 | we will be glad you cannot prove it. For if you could, you would | forever seek where it is not and never find it. The idea for today |
W1:76.7 | we would hide. We realize instead it is a truth which keeps us free | forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of God set free. The light has |
W1:76.10 | substitutes, and nothing is replaced by something else. God's laws | forever give and never take. |
W1:76.12 | us, as well as of the joys of Heaven which His laws keep limitless | forever. We will repeat today's idea until we have listened and |
W1:92.8 | comes again. The light of strength is constant, sure as love, | forever glad to give itself away because it cannot give but to |
W1:93.7 | unalterable. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. You are and will | forever be exactly as you were created. Light and joy and peace abide |
W1:94.1 | and all the thoughts that this world ever held are wiped away | forever by this one idea. Here is salvation accomplished. Here is |
W1:95.18 | sinless as its Creator, with His strength within you and His love | forever yours. You are One Self, and it is given you to feel this |
W1:96.3 | nor can your Self be split in two and still be what it is and must | forever be. |
W1:99.4 | the separated mind and thoughts with Mind and thought which are | forever one? What plan could hold the truth inviolate, yet recognize |
W1:99.16 | for today which has the power to remove all forms of doubt and fear | forever from your mind. If you are tempted to believe them true, |
W1:105.5 | itself fulfill its aim of giving everything it has away, securing it | forever for itself. |
W1:106.4 | not fade when dreaming ends. They end the dream instead and last | forever, for they come from God to His dear Son, whose other name is |
W1:106.7 | is yours, and everything is given away, it will remain with you | forever. And the lesson has been learned. |
W1:107.4 | and they are nowhere. They cannot be found, for truth is everywhere | forever now. |
W1:108.1 | it will appear instead, to take its place. And now we are at peace | forever, for the dream is over now. |
W1:110.8 | the Son of God and brother to the world—the savior who has been | forever saved, with power to save whoever touches Him however |
W1:112.3 | [94] I am as God created me. I will remain | forever as I was, Created by the Changeless like Himself. And I am |
W1:114.3 | accept the Word of God, Who has created me, for what I am and will | forever be? |
W1:122.8 | eyes and fill your heart with deep tranquility as ancient truths, | forever newly born, arise in your awareness. What you will remember |
W1:123.3 | Give thanks that He has not abandoned you and that His Love | forever will remain shining on you, forever without change. Give |
W1:123.3 | abandoned you and that His Love forever will remain shining on you, | forever without change. Give thanks as well that you are changeless, |
W1:125.2 | God is free to save himself, given the Word of God to be his Guide, | forever in his mind and at his side to lead him surely to his |
W1:125.2 | his side 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 |
W1:125.4 | throne of God today, the quiet place within the mind where He abides | forever in the holiness which He created and will never leave. |
W1:127.3 | one, the link between the Father and the Son which holds them both | forever as the same. |
W1:129.3 | find a world instead where losing is impossible, where love endures | forever, hate cannot exist, and vengeance has no meaning? Is it loss |
W1:131.9 | Could he lose what the Eternal Will has given him to be his home | forever? Let us not try longer to impose an alien will upon God's |
W1:133.7 | First, if you choose a thing that will not last | forever, what you chose is valueless. A temporary value is without |
W1:137.4 | always was the simple truth and always will remain exactly as it has | forever been. Yet eyes accustomed to illusions must be shown that |
W1:137.8 | were walled off within a body free to join with other minds, to be | forever strong. |
W1:139.7 | can be asked of you, for what you are is certain. It is set | forever in the holy Mind of God and in your own. It is so far beyond |
W1:140.6 | It is merely an appeal to truth which cannot fail to heal and heal | forever. It is not a thought which judges an illusion by its size, |
W1:R4.4 | of forgiveness blocks this thought from his awareness. Yet it is | forever true. |
W1:R4.12 | His gratitude surrounds you in the peace wherein He wills you be | forever and are learning now to claim again as your inheritance. |
W1:153.13 | the toys of guilt and lock our quaint and childish thoughts of sin | forever from the pure and holy minds of Heaven's children and the Son |
W1:158.1 | The knowledge that you are a mind, in Mind and purely mind, sinless | forever, wholly unafraid because you were created out of Love. Nor |
W1:160.8 | Who He knows to be His Son belongs where He has set His Son | forever. He has answered you who ask, “Who is the stranger?” Hear His |
W1:160.8 | is your Creator stranger made to you. Whom God has joined remains | forever one, at home in Him, no stranger to Himself. |
W1:163.9 | with You and with all living things, to be like You and part of You | forever. We accept Your thoughts as ours, and our will is one with |
W1:164.1 | is. And so today, this instant, now, we come to look upon what is | forever there—not in our sight, but in the eyes of Christ. He looks |
W1:165.6 | lies there and nowhere else. Would God consent to let His Son remain | forever starved by his denial of the nourishment he needs to live? |
W1:167.8 | them. The thought of death is not the opposite to thoughts of life. | Forever unopposed by opposites of any kind, the thoughts of God |
W1:167.8 | unopposed by opposites of any kind, the thoughts of God remain | forever changeless with the power to extend forever changelessly but |
W1:167.8 | thoughts of God remain forever changeless with the power to extend | forever changelessly but yet within Themselves, for They are |
W1:167.11 | home we strive to keep today, as He established it and wills it be | forever and forever. He is Lord of what we think today. And in His |
W1:167.11 | to keep today, as He established it and wills it be forever and | forever. He is Lord of what we think today. And in His thoughts, |
W1:167.12 | minds which He created perfect. As we were, so are we now and will | forever be. A sleeping mind must waken as it sees its own perfection |
W1:168.1 | is no certainty but this, yet this suffices. He will love His Son | forever. When his mind remains asleep, He loves him still. And when |
W1:168.2 | of His Love, hope and despair would be impossible, for hope would be | forever satisfied; despair of any kind unthinkable. His grace His |
W1:169.8 | revelation is entirely irrelevant to what must be a constant state, | forever as it always was; forever to remain as it is now. We merely |
W1:169.8 | to what must be a constant state, forever as it always was; | forever to remain as it is now. We merely take the part assigned long |
W1:169.12 | instant back to bless the world? How could you finally attain to it | forever while a part of you remains outside, unknowing, unawakened, |
W1:170.13 | belongs to God and echoes His. And now your heart remains at peace | forever. You have chosen Him in place of idols, and your attributes, |
W1:R5.12 | as time, and older still. Hallowed your name. Your glory undefiled | forever. And your wholeness now complete, as God established it. You |
W1:182.4 | here. This Childhood is eternal, with an innocence that will endure | forever. Where this Child shall go is holy ground. It is His holiness |
W1:183.11 | He makes his claim to all his Father gave, is giving still, and will | forever give. He calls on Him to let all things he thought he made be |
W1:184.9 | were asked to go beyond all symbols of the world, forgetting them | forever; yet were asked to take a teaching function. You have need to |
W1:185.9 | Yet will God's peace come just as certainly and to remain with you | forever. It will not be gone with every twist and turning of the road |
W1:187.9 | take away all thought of form and leave instead the perfect gift | forever there, forever to increase, forever yours, forever given away. |
W1:187.9 | thought of form and leave instead the perfect gift forever there, | forever to increase, forever yours, forever given away. |
W1:187.9 | leave instead the perfect gift forever there, forever to increase, | forever yours, forever given away. |
W1:187.9 | the perfect gift forever there, forever to increase, forever yours, | forever given away. |
W1:188.3 | caress each living thing and leave a blessing with it which remains | forever and forever. What it gives must be eternal. It removes all |
W1:188.3 | living thing and leave a blessing with it which remains forever and | forever. What it gives must be eternal. It removes all thoughts of |
W1:189.8 | interposed between the Son and God the Father to be quietly removed | forever. God will do His part in joyful and immediate response. Ask |
W1:190.6 | is radiant in this holy joy, unchanged, unchanging, and unchangeable | forever and forever. And would you deny a little corner of your mind |
W1:190.6 | this holy joy, unchanged, unchanging, and unchangeable forever and | forever. And would you deny a little corner of your mind its own |
W1:191.4 | all illusions gone. In this one fact is sinlessness proclaimed to be | forever part of everything, the central core of its existence, and |
W1:192.1 | you complete Himself and that your Self shall be His sacred Son, | forever pure as He, of love created and in love preserved, extending |
W1:192.1 | created and in love preserved, extending love, creating in its name, | forever one with God and with your Self. Yet what can such a function |
W1:193.1 | the happiness His Son inherited of Him be undisturbed, eternal and | forever gaining scope, eternally expanding in the joy of full |
W1:193.2 | Who answers what His Son would contradict and keeps his sinlessness | forever safe. |
W1:193.7 | is so simple that it cannot be rejected in the end. No one can hide | forever from a truth so very obvious that it appears in countless |
W1:196.12 | help you reach that instant and to go beyond it quickly, surely, and | forever. When the fear of God is gone, there are no obstacles that |
W1:197.3 | they be a lasting offering of a thankful heart released from hell | forever. Is it this you would undo by taking back your gifts because |
W1:197.5 | never realize His gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, | forever giving out, extending love, and adding to your never-ending |
W1:197.7 | And with the end of this belief is fear | forever over. Thank your Self for this, for He is grateful only unto |
W1:198.13 | ever thought you made completely vanished from the mind which God | forever knows to be His only Son. |
W1:198.14 | itself, you see the vision of yourself and then you disappear | forever into God. |
W1:199.2 | The mind that serves the Holy Spirit is unlimited | forever, in all ways, beyond the laws of time and space, unbound by |
W1:199.8 | You are God's Son. In immortality you live | forever. Would you not return your mind to this? Then practice well |
W1:200.9 | our footsteps. He will not desert His Son in need, nor let him stray | forever from his home. The Father calls; the Son will hear. And that |
W1:200.1 | and God, my Father, One Creator of the whole that is my Self, | forever one with me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as |
W1:204.1 | unbound by laws which rule the world of sick illusions, free in God, | forever and forever one with Him. I am not a body. I am free. For I |
W1:204.1 | which rule the world of sick illusions, free in God, forever and | forever one with Him. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as |
W1:219.1 | 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 am still as |
W2:227.1 | them up and lay them down before the feet of truth, to be removed | forever from my mind. This is my holy instant of release. Father, I |
W2:230.1 | merciful is God my Father, that when He created me He gave me peace | forever. Now I ask but to be what I am. And can this be denied me, |
W2:230.1 | Now I ask but to be what I am. And can this be denied me, when it is | forever so? |
W2:234.1 | there was no lapse in continuity nor break in thoughts which are | forever unified as one. Nothing has ever happened to disturb the |
W2:235.1 | remember that His Love surrounds His Son and keeps his sinlessness | forever perfect to be sure that I am saved and safe forever in His |
W2:235.1 | his sinlessness forever perfect to be sure that I am saved and safe | forever in His arms. I am the Son He loves. And I am saved because |
W2:235.2 | Your holiness is mine. Your Love created me and made my sinlessness | forever part of You. I have no guilt or sin in me, for there is none |
W2:239.1 | And can it be that we are not among them when He loves His Son | forever and with perfect constancy, knowing he is as He created him? |
W2:239.2 | We thank You, Father, for the light that shines | forever in us. And we honor it because You share it with us. We are |
W2:244.2 | For what can come to threaten God Himself or make afraid what will | forever be a part of Him? |
W2:WIS.3 | the Son He loves, with but corruption to complete Himself, His Will | forever overcome by death, love slain by hate, and peace to be no |
W2:255.1 | truth of what He says. God's Son can have no cares and must remain | forever in the peace of Heaven. In his name I give today to finding |
W2:267.1 | of God, directed by His Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held | forever quiet and at peace within His loving arms. Each heartbeat |
W2:268.1 | as You created me. In Love was I created, and in Love will I remain | forever. What can frighten me when I let all things be exactly as |
W2:270.1 | waits expectantly the one remaining instant more of time, which ends | forever as Your memory returns to him. And now his will is one with |
W2:WIC.1 | nor lost the innocence in which He was created. He abides unchanged | forever in the Mind of God. |
W2:WIC.2 | that separation is no more than an illusion of despair. For hope | forever will abide in Him. Your mind is part of His and His of yours. |
W2:272.1 | accept no less than You have given me. I am surrounded by Your Love, | forever still, forever gentle, and forever safe. God's Son must be as |
W2:272.1 | than You have given me. I am surrounded by Your Love, forever still, | forever gentle, and forever safe. God's Son must be as You created |
W2:272.1 | me. I am surrounded by Your Love, forever still, forever gentle, and | forever safe. God's Son must be as You created him. |
W2:280.1 | Mind. No Thought of God is limited at all. No Thought of God but is | forever pure. Can I lay limits on the Son of God, whose Father willed |
W2:WIHS.1 | dispelled before the light of knowledge. There are sights and sounds | forever laid aside. And where they were perceived before, forgiveness |
W2:WIHS.3 | understands the means you made, by which you would attain what is | forever unattainable. And if you offer them to Him, He will employ |
W2:282.1 | not to be asleep in dreams of death while truth remains | forever living in the joy of life. And this the choice to recognize |
W2:293.1 | with it. Love remains the only present state, whose Source is here | forever and forever. Can the world seem bright and clear and safe and |

W2:322.2 | Father, to You all sacrifice remains | forever inconceivable. And so I cannot sacrifice except in dreams. As |
W2:326.1 | created in Your Mind, a holy thought that never left its home. I am | forever Your Effect, and You forever and forever are my Cause. As You |
W2:326.1 | thought that never left its home. I am forever Your Effect, and You | forever and forever are my Cause. As You created me, I have remained. |
W2:326.1 | never left its home. I am forever Your Effect, and You forever and | forever are my Cause. As You created me, I have remained. Where You |
W2:329.1 | one with You. And this I chose in my creation, where my will became | forever one with Yours. That choice was made for all eternity. It |

W2:330.2 | 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 thought we |
W2:WIE.3 | and attack when all there is surrounding him is everlasting peace, | forever conflict-free and undisturbed in deepest silence and |

W2:337.1 | ensures me perfect peace, eternal safety, everlasting love, freedom | forever from all thought of loss, complete deliverance from |
W2:340.1 | him to find Christ's vision through forgiveness and be free | forever from all suffering. Thanks for today, my Father. I was born |
W2:343.1 | as well as You. I too must give, and so all things are given unto me | forever and forever. As I was created, I remain. Your Son can make no |
W2:343.1 | I too must give, and so all things are given unto me forever and | forever. As I was created, I remain. Your Son can make no sacrifice, |

W2:359.1 | the holy Sons of God. What You created sinless so abides forever and | forever. Such are we. And we rejoice to learn that we have made |
W2:360.1 | is Your peace that I would give, receiving it of You. I am Your Son, | forever just as You created me, for the Great Rays remain forever |
W2:360.1 | Your Son, forever just as You created me, for the Great Rays remain | forever still and undisturbed within me. I would reach to them in |
M:I.5 | there would be no hope of salvation, for the world of sin would seem | forever “real.” The self-deceiving must deceive, for they must teach |
M:I.5 | more, although their thoughts remain a source of strength and truth | forever. Who are they? How are they chosen? What do they do? How can |
M:4.19 | to him. These he can give away in true generosity, protecting them | forever for himself. |
M:5.7 | With this idea is pain | forever gone. But with this idea goes also all confusion about |

M:12.1 | God's Will and bring His Thoughts to still deluded minds. He is | forever One, because He is as God created Him. He has accepted |
M:13.3 | Now has the mind condemned itself to seek without finding, to be | forever dissatisfied and discontented, to know not what it really |
M:14.1 | will cover it, hiding all evil, concealing all sin, and ending guilt | forever. So ends the world that guilt had made, for now it has no |
M:15.1 | Indeed yes! No one can escape God's Final Judgment. Who could flee | forever from the truth? But the Final Judgment will not come until it |

M:19.3 | has no place in such a scheme, for not one “sin” but seems | forever true. |

Tx:27.49 | one lesson which has perfectly been learned. And then when you | forget it will the world remind you gently of what you have taught. |
Tx:27.67 | play in salvaging the world from condemnation is your own escape. | Forget not that the witness to the world of evil cannot speak except |

Tx:29.64 | is in the minds of those who play with them. But they are eager to | forget that they made up the dream in which their toys are real, nor |
Tx:30.48 | than one. An idol or the Thought God holds of you is your reality. | Forget not, then, that idols must keep hidden what you are, not from |
Tx:30.49 | and so still in loving gentleness, were you aware of it you would | forget defensiveness entirely and rush to its embrace. The truth |

Tx:31.23 | step back and falling back when he would go ahead? For so do you | forget the journey's goal, which is but to decide to walk with him, |

T3:10.10 | Self has no cause for uncertainty. Thus you are called, as well, to | forget the uncertainty of the past. |
T3:10.11 | and that all that is from the past is what you are being called to | forget. Thus when uncertainty arises, you need but remind yourself |

W1:60.3 | It is through the strength of God in me, which I am remembering as I | forgive. As I begin to see, I recognize His reflection on earth. I |

W1:134.3 | genuine forgiveness on your part is that you still believe you must | forgive the truth and not illusions. You conceive of pardon as a vain |

W1:161.12 | —what you are seeing now conceals from you the sight of one who can | forgive you all your sins, whose sacred hands can take the nails |

W1:188.9 | in us and from us to all living things that share our life. We will | forgive them all, absolving all the world of what we thought it did |
W1:192.10 | Love for him belongs to you. Your function here on earth is only to | forgive him, that you may accept him back as your Identity. He is as |

Tx:22.41 | thankful will they be to see you come among them, offering Christ's | forgiveness to dispel their faith in sin. |
Tx:22.57 | When you have looked upon each other with complete | forgiveness from which no error is excluded and nothing kept hidden |
Tx:22.59 | to look on what your Father loves with charity? Extension of | forgiveness is the Holy Spirit's function. Leave this to Him. Let |
Tx:23.6 | in it. So will you come to understand all that is given you. In kind | forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine and everything you once |
Tx:23.16 | as one and not apart. Open the door of His most holy home and let | forgiveness sweep away all trace of the belief in sin that keeps God |
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:23.26 | and no escape. Atonement thus becomes a myth, and vengeance, not | forgiveness, is the Will of God. From where all this begins, there is |
Tx:23.42 | And neither the receiver nor the giver is long deceived. Withhold | forgiveness from your brother, and you attack him. You give him |
Tx:23.44 | is impossible cannot uphold a quiet, calm assurance it has come. | Forgiveness cannot be withheld a little. Nor is it possible to attack |
Tx:23.44 | is it possible to attack for this and love for that and understand | forgiveness. Would you not want to recognize assault upon your |
Tx:23.45 | perceive it lies within them. How could they know? Could they accept | forgiveness side by side with the belief that murder takes some forms |
Tx:23.50 | It cannot yet assume the holy function God gave His Son, for your | forgiveness of one another is not complete as yet, and so it cannot |
Tx:24.19 | and make you whole in mind and one with him. He waits for your | forgiveness only that he may return it unto you. It is not God Who |
Tx:24.26 | Forgiveness is the end of specialness. Only illusions can be | |
Tx:24.26 | Only illusions can be forgiven, and then they disappear. | Forgiveness is release from all illusions, and that is why it is |
Tx:24.26 | calls it “unforgivable” and makes it sin. How can he then give his | forgiveness wholly, when he would not receive it for himself? For it |
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:24.46 | from death, receiving from each one the gift of life that your | forgiveness offers to your Self. The sight of Christ is all there is |
Tx:25.21 | cannot separate yourself from him nor from his Father. You need no | forgiveness, for the wholly pure have never sinned. Give then what He |
Tx:25.26 | In His perception of the world, nothing is seen but justifies | forgiveness and the sight of perfect sinlessness. Nothing arises but |
Tx:25.26 | sinlessness. Nothing arises but is met with instant and complete | forgiveness. |
Tx:25.28 | altar where he can with equal ease and far more happiness bestow | forgiveness. And he will reinterpret all temptation as just another |
Tx:25.29 | has much to offer to your peace and many chances to extend your own | forgiveness. Such its purpose is to those who want to see peace and |
Tx:25.29 | Such its purpose is to those who want to see peace and | forgiveness descend on them and offer them the light. |
Tx:25.42 | of your own belief in what the Will of God must be for you. In your | forgiveness will you understand His love for you; through your attack |
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:26.70 | a little space between you still, you want a little time in which | forgiveness is withheld a little while. This makes the interval |
Tx:26.70 | a little while. This makes the interval between the time in which | forgiveness is withheld and given seem dangerous, with terror |
Tx:26.83 | entered in. Your footprints lighten up the world, for where you walk | forgiveness gladly goes with you. No one on earth but offers thanks |
Tx:27.6 | tear is wiped away in laughter and in love. And he will look on his | forgiveness there and with healed eyes will look beyond it to the |
Tx:27.14 | must be real because what it has done is there to see. | Forgiveness is not pity which but seeks to pardon what it knows to be |
Tx:27.14 | it knows to be the truth. Good cannot be returned for evil, for | forgiveness does not first establish sin and then forgive it. Who |
Tx:27.15 | their brothers and themselves as well. For no one in whom true | forgiveness reigns can suffer. He holds not the proof of sin before |
Tx:27.15 | And thus he must have overlooked it and removed it from his own. | Forgiveness cannot be for one and not the other. Who forgives is |
Tx:27.16 | Forgiveness is not real unless it brings a healing to your brother | |
Tx:27.16 | unless his sins have no effect to warrant guilt? Sins are beyond | forgiveness just because they would entail effects which cannot be |
Tx:27.17 | speak with power greater than a thousand tongues. For here is his | forgiveness proved to him. A miracle can offer nothing less to him |
Tx:27.22 | guilt. If you assume correction's role, you lose the function of | forgiveness. No one can forgive until he learns correction is but |
Tx:27.28 | Correction must be left to One Who knows correction and | forgiveness are the same. With half a mind, this is not understood. |
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:27.33 | free of limits. Yet it sets no limits you have chosen to impose. | Forgiveness is the means by which the truth is represented |
Tx:27.34 | ultimately take the place of every learning aid will merely be. | Forgiveness vanishes and symbols fade, and nothing which the eyes |
Tx:27.35 | Yet no other kind can be at all. Give welcome to the Power beyond | forgiveness and beyond the world of symbols and of limitations. He |
Tx:27.59 | of sin. The miracle forgives because it stands for what is past | forgiveness and is true. How foolish and insane it is to think a |
Tx:28.35 | And sickness will be seen without a cause. The dream of healing in | forgiveness lies and gently shows you that you never sinned. The |
Tx:28.48 | 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:29.23 | be lifted from your mind. When light has come to him through your | forgiveness, he will not forget his savior, leaving him unsaved. For |
Tx:29.35 | If you but knew the glorious goal that lies beyond | forgiveness, you would not keep hold on any thought, however light |
Tx:29.38 | and misery and pain? These questions are the same in different form. | Forgiveness is your peace, for herein lies the end of separation |
Tx:29.39 | appointed not his destiny nor set the hour of his birth and death. | Forgiveness will not change him. Yet time waits upon forgiveness that |
Tx:29.39 | and death. Forgiveness will not change him. Yet time waits upon | forgiveness that the things of time may disappear because they have |
Tx:29.41 | in time and change that time might be preserved, excepting one. | Forgiveness does not aim at keeping time but at its ending when it |
Tx:29.42 | as what you see it for. How lovely is the world whose purpose is | forgiveness of God's Son! How free from fear, how filled with |
Tx:29.68 | remembers, though he has not heard it since before all time began. | Forgiveness, once complete, brings timelessness so close the song of |
Tx:30.56 | It asks for nothing in reality. And even in illusions it but asks | forgiveness be the substitute for fear. Such is the only rule for |
Tx:30.57 | state of mind in which the only purpose of the world is seen to be | forgiveness. Fear is not its goal, and the escape from guilt |
Tx:30.57 | its goal, and the escape from guilt becomes its aim. The value of | forgiveness is perceived and takes the place of idols which are |
Tx:30.59 | Not yet is Heaven quite remembered, for the purpose of | forgiveness still remains. Yet everyone is certain he will go beyond |
Tx:30.59 | forgiveness still remains. Yet everyone is certain he will go beyond | forgiveness, and he but remains until it is made perfect in himself. |
Tx:30.59 | with him. For thus is he made ready for the step in which is all | forgiveness left behind. |
Tx:30.60 | creation and eternity. But fear is gone because its purpose is | forgiveness, not idolatry. And so is Heaven's Son prepared to be |
Tx:30.62 | And all that stood between your image of yourself and what you are, | forgiveness washes joyfully away. Yet God need not create His Son |
Tx:30.63 | For He must be unremembered till His Son has reached beyond | forgiveness to the love of God. Yet is the love of Christ accepted |
Tx:30.70 | real world given in exchange for dreams of terror. For it is on this | forgiveness rests and is but natural. You are not asked to offer |
Tx:30.71 | you would be asked to sacrifice your rights when you return | forgiveness for attack. But you are merely asked to see forgiveness |
Tx:30.71 | you return forgiveness for attack. But you are merely asked to see | forgiveness as the natural reaction to distress which rests on error |
Tx:30.71 | reaction to distress which rests on error and thus calls for help. | Forgiveness is the only sane response. It keeps your rights from |
Tx:30.72 | have none. The real world is achieved when you perceive the basis of | forgiveness is quite real and fully justified. While you regard it as |
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:30.73 | itself. If you can see your brother merits pardon, you have learned | forgiveness is your right as much as his. Nor will you think that God |
Tx:30.74 | Forgiveness recognized as merited will heal. It gives the miracle its | |
Tx:30.74 | it would be necessary first there be some sin which stands beyond | forgiveness. There would be an error that is more than a mistake—a |
Tx:30.75 | than a belief there are some forms of sickness and of joylessness | forgiveness cannot heal. This means that you prefer to keep some |
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:30.77 | what is whole can have no missing parts that have been kept outside. | Forgiveness rests on recognizing this and being glad there cannot be |
Tx:30.88 | lets us speak to all our brothers and to understand with them | forgiveness has been given to us all, and thus we can communicate |
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 |
Tx:31.82 | cannot see until he looks on them with seeing eyes and offers them | forgiveness with his own. Can you to whom God says, “Release My Son!” |
W1:11.1 | initial form, for in this idea is your release made sure. The key to | forgiveness lies in it. |
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 |
W1:46.1 | thus releasing themselves from illusions, while those who withhold | forgiveness are binding themselves to them. As you condemn only |
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 |
W1:60.2 | those who have accepted their innocence see nothing to forgive. Yet | forgiveness is the means by which I will recognize my innocence. It |
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 |

Tx:7.15 | changes the meaning. In fact, his whole purpose is to change the | form so that the original meaning is retained. The Holy Spirit is |
Tx:7.16 | and in all languages. Therefore, He opposes differences in | form as meaningful, emphasizing always that these differences do not |

Tx:22.18 | believers. The form in which they are accepted is irrelevant. No | form of misery in reason's eyes can be confused with joy. Joy is |

Tx:22.32 | Only the | form of error attracts the ego. Meaning it does not recognize and |
Tx:22.32 | that the whole would give. And yet mistakes, regardless of their | form, can be corrected. Sin is but error in a special form the ego |
Tx:22.32 | of their form, can be corrected. Sin is but error in a special | form the ego venerates. It would preserve all errors and make them |

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:23.39 | 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:27.38 | asks and answers, both attesting the same thing in different | form. |
Tx:27.39 | escape from all the pain of which this world is made?” Whatever | form the question takes, its purpose is the same. It asks but to |
Tx:27.39 | is the same. It asks but to establish sin is real and answers in the | form of preference. “Which sin do you prefer? That is the one which |
Tx:27.40 | answer even as it asks. Thus is all questioning within the world a | form of propaganda for itself. Just as the body's witnesses are but |
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:27.86 | single lesson learned will set you free from suffering, whatever | form it takes. |
Tx:27.87 | lesson of deliverance until it has been learned, regardless of the | form of suffering that brings you pain. Whatever hurt you bring to |
Tx:27.87 | simple truth. For this one answer takes away the cause of every | form of sorrow and of pain. The form affects His answer not at all, |
Tx:27.87 | takes away the cause of every form of sorrow and of pain. The | form affects His answer not at all, for He would teach you but the |
Tx:27.87 | teach you but the single cause of all of them, no matter what their | form. And you will understand that miracles reflect the simple |
Tx:28.31 | The gap is little. Yet it holds the seeds of pestilence and every | form of ill because it is a wish to keep apart and not to join. And |
Tx:28.38 | here and now. Refuse to be a part of fearful dreams whatever | form they take, for you will lose identity in them. You find |
Tx:28.63 | of sickness are immune because the choice cannot be made in terms of | form. The choice of sickness seems to be a form, yet it is one, as |
Tx:28.63 | be made in terms of form. The choice of sickness seems to be a | form, yet it is one, as is its opposite. And you are sick or well |
Tx:29.26 | seen. For every dream is but a dream of fear, no matter what the | form it seems to take. The fear is seen within, without, or both. Or |
Tx:29.26 | is seen within, without, or both. Or it can be disguised in pleasant | form. But never is it absent from the dream, for fear is the material |
Tx:29.26 | fear is the material of dreams from which they all are made. Their | form can change, but they cannot be made of something else. The |
Tx:29.27 | In simplest | form it can be said attack is a response to function unfulfilled as |
Tx:29.30 | love. For at its center is His love for you, which lights whatever | form it takes with love. |
Tx:29.36 | it was made for hate and will continue in death's services. Each | form it takes in some way calls for death. And those who serve the |
Tx:29.38 | and misery and pain? These questions are the same in different | form. Forgiveness is your peace, for herein lies the end of |
Tx:29.45 | does not understand the idol that he seeks is but his death. Its | form appears to be outside himself. Yet does he seek to kill God's |
Tx:29.47 | its lifelessness is really death, conceived as real and given living | form. Yet each must fail and crumble and decay because a form of |
Tx:29.47 | living form. Yet each must fail and crumble and decay because a | form of death cannot be life, and what is sacrificed cannot be whole. |
Tx:29.52 | is. Idols are made that he may be replaced, no matter what their | form. And it is this which never is perceived and recognized. Be it a |
Tx:29.53 | Let not their | form deceive you. Idols are but substitutes for your reality. In some |
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:29.55 | one blade of grass from something living to a sign of death. Its | form is nowhere, for its source abides within your mind, where God |
Tx:29.55 | and to quail in fear. Christ's enemy is nowhere. He can take no | form in which he ever will be real. |
Tx:29.57 | has been set by the idea this power and place and time are given | form and shape the world where the impossible has happened. Here the |
Tx:29.69 | Whenever you feel fear in any | form—and you are fearful if you do not feel a deep content, a |
Tx:30.2 | with a little practice with the ones you recognize, a set begins to | form which sees you through the rest. It is not wise to let yourself |
Tx:30.31 | permits all things to happen. Nothing can be caused without some | form of union, be it with a dream of judgment or the Voice for God. |
Tx:30.38 | But your will is universal, being limitless. And so it has no | form nor is content for its expression in the terms of form. Idols |
Tx:30.38 | so it has no form nor is content for its expression in the terms of | form. Idols are limits. They are the belief that there are forms |
Tx:30.39 | It is not | form you seek. What form can be a substitute for God the Father's |
Tx:30.39 | It is not form you seek. What | form can be a substitute for God the Father's love? What form can |
Tx:30.39 | seek. What form can be a substitute for God the Father's love? What | form can take the place of all the love in the divinity of God the |
Tx:30.39 | will not bestow on you the gift you seek. When you decide upon the | form of what you want, you lose the understanding of its purpose. So |
Tx:30.39 | So you see your will within the idol, thus reducing it to a specific | form. Yet this could never be your will because what shares in all |
Tx:30.40 | for every idol lies the yearning for completion. Wholeness has no | form because it is unlimited. To seek a special person or a thing to |
Tx:30.40 | to you to make yourself complete can only mean that you believe some | form is missing. And by finding this, you will achieve completion in |
Tx:30.40 | is missing. And by finding this, you will achieve completion in a | form you like. This is the purpose of an idol—that you will not |
Tx:30.41 | but God's Will, and this is given you by being His. God knows not | form. He cannot answer you in terms which have no meaning. And your |
Tx:30.42 | If there were change in him, if he could be reduced to any | form and limited to what is not in him, he would not be as God |
Tx:30.42 | asked for cannot be denied. Your will is granted. Not in any | form that would content you not, but in the whole completely lovely |
Tx:30.53 | they are appearances and not reality. Dwell not on them in any | form. They but obscure reality, and they bring fear because they |
Tx:30.58 | there, for guilt is understood as the sole cause of pain in any | form. No one is tempted by its vain appeal, for suffering and death |
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:30.89 | and keeps it separate from all appearances. It must transcend all | form to be itself. It cannot change. |
Tx:30.90 | you perceive as his reality. The happy dream about him takes the | form of the appearance of his perfect health, his perfect freedom |
Tx:30.90 | The miracle is proof he is not bound by loss or suffering in any | form because it can so easily be changed. This demonstrates that it |
Tx:30.93 | to heal all things 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 |
Tx:31.3 | which you went to practice and repeat the lessons endlessly in every | form you could conceive of them could ever doubt the power of your |
Tx:31.10 | the dying world! You do not understand Who calls to you beyond each | form of hate, each call to war. Yet you will recognize Him as you |
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 |
Tx:31.26 | hate your brother for his sins, but only for your own. Whatever | form his sins appear to take, it but obscures the fact that you |
Tx:31.38 | learning that the world can offer but one choice, no matter what its | form may be, is the beginning of acceptance that there is a real |
Tx:31.69 | but will not see them as meaningless. And so they come in fearful | form, with content still concealed, to shake your sorry concept of |
Tx:31.79 | Whatever | form temptation seems to take, it always but reflects a wish to be a |
Tx:31.92 | and in hell. Yield not to this, and you will see all pain in every | form wherever it occurs but disappear as mists before the sun. A |
W1:4.3 | and will be repeated from time to time in somewhat different | form. The aim here is to train you in the first steps toward the goal |
W1:5.1 | as different. This is not true. However, until you learn that | form does not matter, each form becomes a proper subject for the |
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 |
W1:107.5 | or change to something else. It does not shift and alter in its | form, nor come and go and go and come again. It stays exactly as it |
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 |
W1:158.9 | lies beyond them comes to take their place. It matters not what | form they took nor how enormous they appeared to be nor who seemed to |
W1:161.5 | at last puts out our life. Yet bodies are but symbols of a concrete | form of fear. Fear without symbols calls for no response, for symbols |
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 |
W1:161.9 | his reality. And in Christ's vision is his loveliness reflected in a | form so holy and so beautiful that you could scarce refrain from |
W1:161.11 | Today we practice in a | form we have attempted earlier. Your readiness is closer now, and you |
W1:161.12 | salvation of him. See him first as clearly as you can in that same | form to which you are accustomed. See his face, his hands and feet, |
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 |

W1:186.14 | 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 |

W1:187.9 | 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 |

W1:190.1 | 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 |
W1:193.16 | in the days to come, in practicing the lesson in forgiveness in the | form established for the day. And try to give it application to the |
W1:193.20 | To every apprehension, every care, and every | form of suffering, repeat these selfsame words. And then you hold 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. |

W2:240.1 | Not one thing in this world is true. It does not matter what the | form in which it may appear. It witnesses but to your own illusions |

W2:358.1 | is mine as well, and all I want is what You offer me, in just the | form You chose that it be mine. Let me remember all I do not know, |
M:1.3 | There is a course for every teacher of God. The | form of the course varies greatly. So do the particular teaching aids |

M:2.1 | as he has answered the Call. They were chosen for him, because the | form of the universal curriculum that he will teach is best for them |
M:2.3 | emphasizes, you are not free to choose the curriculum or even the | form in which you will learn it. You are free, however, to decide |
M:5.3 | his Father over him. It represents the ultimate defiance in a direct | form which the Son of God is forced to recognize. It stands for all |
M:5.5 | is. Special agents seem to be ministering to him, yet they but give | form to his own choice. He chooses them to bring tangible form to his |
M:5.5 | but give form to his own choice. He chooses them to bring tangible | form to his desires. And it is this they do, and nothing else. They |
M:5.5 | up without their aid and say, “I have no use for this.” There is no | form of sickness that would not be cured at once. |
M:7.4 | because of the appearance of continuing symptoms is a mistake in the | form of lack of trust. As such, it is an attack. Usually it seems to |
M:7.4 | coexist. And hate must be the opposite of love, regardless of the | form it takes. Doubt not the gift, and it is impossible to doubt its |
M:7.5 | there is a guilty embarrassment stemming from false humility. The | form of the mistake is not important. What is important is only the |
M:7.6 | The mistake is always some | form of concern with the self to the exclusion of the patient. It is |
M:17.1 | in this is not to attack it. If a magic thought arouses anger in any | form, God's teacher can be sure that he is strengthening his own |
M:17.4 | too mild to be even clearly recognized. Or it may also take the | form of intense rage accompanied by thoughts of violence, fantasized |

C:2.2 | While you look for a God with a physical | form you will not recognize God. Everything real is of God. Nothing |

C:3.4 | You are not | form, nor is your real world. You seek the face of God in form as you |
C:3.4 | You are not form, nor is your real world. You seek the face of God in | form as you seek for love in form. Both love and God are there, but |

C:3.4 | for love in form. Both love and God are there, but they are not the | form that your body's eyes see. Just as these words you see upon this |
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:3.6 | band are all the same: They but represent what they symbolize in | form. |
C:3.7 | There is no | form that is not thus. A form is but a representation. You see a |
C:3.7 | There is no form that is not thus. A | form is but a representation. You see a thousand forms a day with |
C:3.7 | place in relationship to yourself, and so you do not even see the | form as it is but only as what it will do for you. You imprison form |
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:3.7 | form within your meaning, and still your meaning is truer than its | form. You give all meaning to everything, and thus you populate your |

C:5.7 | your eyes. Your heart knows love without a vision of it. You give it | form and say, “I love this one” or “I love that,” yet you know that |
C:6.20 | placed upon those who remain? You imagine them still in bodily | form, perhaps, yet you imagine them happy and at peace. Even those |
C:7.11 | in contempt and righteousness. You are unaware that you choose this | form of withholding, sometimes dozens or even hundreds of times a |
C:7.14 | pieces of relationships for yourself. This withholding is not of the | form of grievances but of the form of specialness. You withhold in |
C:7.14 | This withholding is not of the form of grievances but of the | form of specialness. You withhold in order to make yourself special, |

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:12.15 | God's son made the choice for separation. Whether God's son had one | form or many at that time matters not, for one form or many, there |
C:12.15 | God's son had one form or many at that time matters not, for one | form or many, there was still one mind, the mind of God's son joined |
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:18.5 | hold for you, as you held mine when I entered the world in physical | form. Even if it is just an illustration, it illustrates that none of |
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 | are time-bound. You can realize the eternal even in your temporary | form if you can let go of your particularity. Particularity has to do |
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:21.2 | through the embrace, to the holy relationship but in a broadened | form. |
C:21.3 | The holy relationship in its broadened | form is eternity, the eternity of the embrace. If the embrace is the |
C:22.2 | we have not as yet discussed how this relationship is provided in | form. Now we will do so. |
C:22.20 | the world without the emphasis on your personal self. Begin to | form sentences and eventually to tell stories without the use of the |
C:23.9 | They are not necessary, as is seen by the reality that they only | form after the fact. The belief fosters the form and the form is then |
C:23.9 | reality that they only form after the fact. The belief fosters the | form and the form is then meant to foster the belief. |
C:23.9 | they only form after the fact. The belief fosters the form and the | form is then meant to foster the belief. |
C:23.10 | be clear. The body politic. A body of knowledge. Belief fostered the | form and the form was meant to foster the belief. Thus belief and |
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:23.10 | you to experience freedom of the body, which is an extension, in | form, of your belief in the personal “I.” |
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:23.13 | I repeat: Belief of another kind can foster the creation of | form of another kind. A wholehearted belief in the truth about your |
C:23.16 | Freeing your perception from your nearly immutable belief in | form will allow for all changes in form required by the miracle. Form |
C:23.16 | your nearly immutable belief in form will allow for all changes in | form required by the miracle. Form is not a constant but a result. |
C:23.16 | in form will allow for all changes in form required by the miracle. | Form is not a constant but a result. While you believe that belief is |
C:23.16 | but a result. While you believe that belief is the result of | form, it is not. Form is the result of belief. Thus belief is not |
C:23.16 | While you believe that belief is the result of form, it is not. | Form is the result of belief. Thus belief is not only capable of |
C:23.16 | is the result of belief. Thus belief is not only capable of changing | form but also is necessary in order to do so. |
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:28.11 | are you of an impending challenge to action, of some necessary | form to be given to what you carry within. |
C:28.12 | feel the need to convince others of your belief, the need to give | form to what is beyond form misses the point of what you have gained. |
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. |
C:31.7 | that which is both you and beyond your understanding of you. | Form mimics content. Form mimics the truth, but does not replace it. |
C:31.7 | both you and beyond your understanding of you. Form mimics content. | Form mimics the truth, but does not replace it. |
C:32.1 | foremost anything that aids your remembering. Thus look not at the | form in which a teacher arrives. It can truly be said that all of |
C:32.1 | help you to remember who you are. As we have stated repeatedly, the | form of your world in many ways reflects the content of who you are. |
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. |

T2:3.2 | 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 | These last two calls, the call that appears in the | form of a sign and the call that comes in the form of a demand, are |
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 |
T2:13.6 | in “A Treatise on the Art of Thought:” that of the elevation of | form. |
T3:1.9 | in which it was hidden and to be represented in truth by the | form you occupy and have previously seen as the reality of yourself. |
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 | translated into the language of the body as well. While your human | form remains, you will be dwelling among those in human form. While |
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 |
T3:12.4 | Matter or | form is bound by time. Spirit is not. The House of Truth cannot be |
T3:13.1 | of the miracle that will allow you to exist as who you are in human | form, we may proceed unencumbered by any doubt you might have had |
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 |
T3:13.14 | physical form and your Self as your physical self represents, in | form, the thought or image produced within the Self. Ideas, in the |
T3:15.1 | with new beginnings than others. For most mature adults, some | form of new beginning has taken place or been offered. Often, those |
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 |
T3:18.3 | of the miracle that will allow you to exist as who you are in human | form. See what perfect sense this makes as your human form is an |
T3:18.3 | are in human form. See what perfect sense this makes as your human | form is an observable form. It is thus from observable form that the |
T3:18.3 | what perfect sense this makes as your human form is an observable | form. It is thus from observable form that the final learning will |
T3:18.3 | as your human form is an observable form. It is thus from observable | form that the final learning will take place. This is the perfect |
T3:18.4 | Expressing who you are in physical | form will return remembrance to the minds of those who observe your |
T3:18.9 | In this way, you will join the mechanisms of your physical | form to the new thought system of the truth. Your body, as has been |
T3:18.9 | system of the truth. Your body, as has been often said, is a neutral | form that will serve you in the manner in which you choose to have it |
T3:18.10 | We also now link observance and ideas. Ideas | form in the mind. You are used to thinking that what you observe |
T3:19.1 | You must not fear the changes that will occur within your physical | form as it begins to be guided by the thought system of the truth |
T3:19.2 | joy that is limited to the physical—no joy felt by the physical | form alone—the joy that comes of things physical can certainly |
T3:19.4 | of the human experience. Let us now dispel this link. The physical | form has been blamed for choices made from lust and greed, hate and |
T3:19.4 | cause and effect are one, there is no effect to be seen in physical | form without a corresponding cause birthed in the ego thought system |
T3:19.9 | goal is the original thought that began the experience in physical | form, the thought of expressing the Self in observable form. |
T3:19.9 | in physical form, the thought of expressing the Self in observable | form. |
T3:19.11 | temptations. Although you will now represent who you are in physical | form in a new way, you can still see that your actions of the past |
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 |
T3:21.19 | of the miracle that will allow you to exist as who you are in human | form. How, you might rightly ask, can you cease to identify yourself |
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:16.3 | as can be easily seen, the earth is no longer a formless wasteland. | Form was animated with spirit and entered a state of becoming. You |
D:16.7 | Love is the spirit of the wind that animates all | form. Love is spirit, is God, is creation. Love is a description of |
D:16.7 | are all that remained in union, in eternal completion, when | form came into being. |
D:16.8 | extension of wholeness—into the seemingly separate identities of | form. The way of that extension was the way of the unified principles |
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 | you can be simply because you exist and that as long as you exist in | form you are being because you are being something. You are alive. |
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:16.11 | and becomes movement in form. Being is given and becomes being in | form. Expression is given and becomes expression in form. Since you |
D:16.11 | becomes being in form. Expression is given and becomes expression in | form. Since you were conceived in form, you were in movement. Since |
D:16.11 | is given and becomes expression in form. Since you were conceived in | form, you were in movement. Since you were conceived in form, you |
D:16.11 | conceived in form, you were in movement. Since you were conceived in | form, you were being. Since you were conceived in form, you were |
D:16.11 | were conceived in form, you were being. Since you were conceived in | form, you were expressing. It would be impossible for these |
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:16.15 | the time of learning and the time of being the elevated Self of | form; that times still exist in which you are not wholly present as |
D:17.1 | It comes in a never ending series rather than in singular | form. It is not true succession if there is a break in the chain or |
D:17.3 | this? Are you willing to claim it? Are you willing to claim it in | form and time? |
D:17.4 | Can you understand that what you claim in | form and time was always yours? |
D:17.24 | hero's journey returns him home. To where he started from. In story | form, this takes place with movement. Years are spent traveling many |
D:Day1.2 | is. Acceptance is not belief, it is not prayer. I care not in what | form of the truth you believe, nor to what god you believe you send |
D:Day1.2 | your prayers; although if you do not believe in your Self above a | form of truth, and if you continue to send your prayers to a god who |
D:Day1.12 | of here. The power of the god man. The power of God brought into | form. The power of who we are rather than the power of who God is. |
D:Day1.18 | creation of man and woman. Adam and Eve represent your birth into | form. I represent your birth into what is beyond form. Adam and Eve |
D:Day1.18 | your birth into form. I represent your birth into what is beyond | form. Adam and Eve represent what occurred within you at the |
D:Day1.19 | As within, so without. In each of you is Adam and Eve represented in | form. In each of you am I represented in form. |
D:Day1.19 | Adam and Eve represented in form. In each of you am I represented in | form. |
D:Day1.24 | realization of paradise and of your true Self and true home, in a | form that will take you beyond time to eternity. |
D:Day1.25 | completion. It is a story whose completion cannot occur in singular | form, but as with any true inheritance only in a series, only in a |
D:Day1.26 | of events of creation include, thus far, the movement of being into | form and the movement of being beyond form. What will be realized |
D:Day1.26 | the movement of being into form and the movement of being beyond | form. What will be realized through the secret of succession is the |
D:Day1.26 | be realized through the secret of succession is the elevation of | form. |
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:Day13.6 | 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: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 | 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: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 |

Tx:15.95 | like many, but it is all the same. For though the ego takes many | forms, it is always the same idea. What is not love is always |
Tx:15.95 | by which it burrows underground and hides in darkness, to emerge in | forms quite different from what it is. Yet it is necessary to |
Tx:18.3 | both a fragmented and a fragmenting emotion. It seems to take many | forms, and each seems to require a different form of acting out for |
Tx:18.4 | that God is fear made but one substitution. It has taken many | forms because it was the substitution of illusion for truth, of |
Tx:18.19 | in dreaming. Your sleeping and your waking dreams have different | forms, and that is all. Their content is the same. They are your |
Tx:18.25 | shrinking from the truth, sometimes retreating to the lesser | forms of fear and sometimes to stark terror. But you will advance |
Tx:18.91 | all there. Figures stand out and move about, actions seem real, and | forms appear and shift from loveliness to the grotesque. And back and |
Tx:22.35 | Only mistakes have different | forms, and so they can deceive. You can change form because it is |

Tx:23.34 | No one who thinks that one of them is true sees what it says. Some | forms it takes seem to have meaning, and that is all. |
Tx:23.35 | How can some | forms of murder not mean death? Can an attack in any form be |
Tx:23.37 | yet perceived as an eternal barrier to Heaven. Illusions are but | forms. Their content is never true. |
Tx:23.38 | The laws of chaos govern all illusions. Their | forms conflict, making it seem quite possible to value some above the |
Tx:23.38 | a certain witness that these laws are true. The seeming gentler | forms of the attack are no less certain in their witnessing or their |
Tx:23.41 | Is it not true you do not recognize some of the | forms attack can take? If it is true attack in any form will hurt you |
Tx:23.45 | forgiveness side by side with the belief that murder takes some | forms by which their peace is saved? Would they be willing to accept |
Tx:23.51 | is not real and easily escaped. Bodies may battle, but the clash of | forms is meaningless. And it is over when you realize it never was |
Tx:23.52 | and murderous, remember you can see the battle from above. Even in | forms you do not recognize, the signs you know. There is a stab of |
Tx:24.5 | though unrecognized, is faith in specialness. This takes many | forms but always clashes with the reality of God's creation and with |
Tx:25.35 | the light. They linger for a while, a little while, in twisted | forms too far away for recognition and are gone forever. And in the |
Tx:25.77 | can prevail for you. And you are safe from vengeance in all | forms. The world deceives, but it cannot replace God's justice with a |
Tx:26.10 | form the problem seems to take. A problem can appear in many | forms, and it will do so while the problem lasts. It serves no |
Tx:26.48 | It cannot be perceived, but only known. What is perceived takes many | forms, but none has meaning. Brought to truth, its senselessness is |
Tx:26.49 | God given answer to the world of sickness which applies to all its | forms. God's answer is eternal, though it operates in time where it |
Tx:26.61 | of effect without the cause can merely shift effects to other | forms. And this is not release. God's Son could never be content |
Tx:26.68 | separate. For time and space are one illusion which takes different | forms. If it has been projected beyond your minds, you think of it as |
Tx:26.86 | What does it mean if you perceive attack in certain | forms to be unfair to you? It means that there must be some forms in |

Tx:27.78 | The dreaming of the world takes many | forms, because the body seeks in many ways to prove it is autonomous |
Tx:27.79 | change nor will its purpose. Though the dream itself takes many | forms and seems to show a great variety of places and events wherein |
Tx:27.83 | a separate brother as an enemy; a mind within a body, all are | forms of circularity whose ending starts at its beginning, ending at |
Tx:27.89 | Bring, then, all | forms of suffering to Him Who knows that every one is like the rest. |
Tx:28.45 | recognized as being part of the completed picture of God's Son! The | forms the broken pieces seem to take mean nothing. For the whole is |
Tx:28.53 | in fog, and misty pictures rise to cover it with vague, uncertain | forms and changing shapes, forever unsubstantial and unsure. Yet in |
Tx:28.63 | are based upon this choice and given you the instant it is made. No | forms of sickness are immune because the choice cannot be made in |
Tx:29.54 | its source. Nor is its form apart from the idea it represents. All | forms of anti-Christ oppose the Christ and fall before His face like |
Tx:29.59 | with hope of finding more of something else. Be not deceived by | forms the “something” takes. An idol is a means for getting more. |
Tx:29.67 | forgiving dreams can enter here, for time is almost over. And the | forms which enter in the dream are now perceived as brothers, not in |
Tx:30.38 | terms of form. Idols are limits. They are the belief that there are | forms which will bring happiness and that, by limiting, is all |

Tx:30.90 | the appearance of his perfect health, his perfect freedom from all | forms of lack, and safety from disaster of all kinds. The miracle is |
Tx:30.91 | be the wish that no reality be so. Yet it is an assertion that some | forms of idols have a powerful appeal which makes them harder to |

W1:21.3 | This is not so. It is merely an example of the belief that some | forms of attack are more justified than others. |
W1:21.4 | As you search your mind for all the | forms in which attack thoughts present themselves, hold each one in |
W1:41.2 | forever. And foolishness it is, despite the serious and tragic | forms it may take. Deep within you is everything that is perfect, |

W1:R4.5 | Let us begin our preparation with some understanding of the many | forms in which the lack of true forgiveness may be carefully |
W1:163.1 | Death is a thought which takes on many | forms, often unrecognized. It may appear as sadness, fear, anxiety, |
W1:163.1 | faithlessness, and lack of trust; concern for bodies, envy, and all | forms in which the wish to be as you are not may come to tempt you. |
W1:167.2 | call it death. Yet we have learned that the idea of death takes many | forms. It is the one idea which underlies all feelings that are not |
W1:170.9 | make another idol to replace it? For the god of cruelty takes many | forms. Another can be found. |
W1:185.9 | with every twist and turning of the road to reappear unrecognized in | forms which shift and change with every step you take. |

W1:187.7 | as what it is. The thought of sacrifice gives rise to all the | forms that suffering appears to take. And sacrifice is an idea so mad |
W1:193.7 | forever from a truth so very obvious that it appears in countless | forms and yet is recognized as easily in all of them if one but wants |
W1:193.9 | your tribulations, all your pain, all suffering regardless of its | forms. These are the words with which temptation ends and guilt, |
W1:200.4 | You have not found your happiness in foreign places and in alien | forms which have no meaning to you, though you sought to make them |
W1:R6.6 | We will attempt to get beyond all words and special | forms of practicing for this review. For we attempt this time to |
W2:262.1 | today. He is Your one creation. Why should I perceive a thousand | forms in what remains as one? Why should I give this one a thousand |
W2:268.1 | attempt to interfere with Your creation and distort it into sickly | forms. Let me be willing to withdraw my wishes from its unity and |
W2:293.1 | with all my past mistakes oppressing it and showing me distorted | forms of pain? Yet in the present, love is obvious and its effects |
W2:295.1 | all of us must be redeemed together. Fear appears in many different | forms, but love is one. |
M:1.4 | form of the universal course. There are many thousands of other | forms, all with the same outcome. They merely save time. Yet it is |
M:5.5 | the body is the basis of healing. And this is so for healing in all | forms. A patient decides that this is so, and he recovers. If he |
M:5.10 | Not once do the advanced teachers of God consider the | forms of sickness in which their brother believes. To do this is to |
M:7.5 | for only such a self can be doubted. This illusion can take many | forms. Perhaps there is a fear of weakness and vulnerability. Perhaps |
M:12.2 | from each other? What does it matter if they then appear in many | forms? Their minds are one; their joining is complete. And God works |
M:16.9 | this goal nearer to recognition. For magic of any kind, in all its | forms, simply does nothing. Its powerlessness is the reason it can be |
M:16.11 | every minute and second, must God's teachers learn to recognize the | forms of magic and perceive their meaninglessness. Fear is withdrawn |
M:22.4 | but it is rarely, if ever, consistently applied to all specific | forms of sickness, both in the individual's perception of himself and |
M:22.6 | circumstances. And in it is the power to heal all individuals of all | forms of sickness. Not to believe this is to be unfair to God and |

Tx:27.11 | of death. Let it have healing as its purpose. Then will it send | forth the message it received and by its health and loveliness |
Tx:27.44 | that it can begin. Accept the miracle of healing, and it will go | forth because of what it is. It is its nature to extend itself the |
Tx:27.49 | from you who let yourself be healed that it might live. It will call | forth its witnesses to show the face of Christ to you who brought the |

Tx:27.59 | And they attest to different sufferings. Yet to the One Who sends | forth miracles to bless the world, a tiny stab of pain, a little |

Tx:29.23 | There, in its place, God's Witness has set | forth the gentle way of kindness to God's Son. Whom you forgive is |
Tx:30.92 | beyond the hope of change is that the miracle cannot come | forth from you consistently. For you have asked it be withheld from |

Tx:31.97 | the only Source it has. Clear in Your Likeness does the Light shine | forth from everything that lives and moves in You. For we have |

W1:76.9 | Perhaps you even think that there are laws which set | forth what is God's and what is yours. Many “religions” have been |

M:22.4 | as well. Nor is it at this level that the teacher of God calls | forth the miracle of healing. He overlooks the mind and body, seeing |

T1:9.16 | is embracing what you heretofore have not embraced. You are pulling | forth sides of your selves that were previously undervalued rather |
T2:4.7 | within your life. Let us look now at your reaction to the idea put | forth earlier of having a calling. |
T2:10.8 | Just beyond your mind's ability to call it | forth lies the truth that you and all other beings know. The access |
T2:11.12 | without relationship, then the image of yourself the ego has put | forth would have been a true image. But as life cannot exist apart |
T2:12.3 | but the culmination and the integration of the beliefs we have put | forth here. The miracle I am offering you here is the service I offer |
T2:12.7 | a learning device, so you must come to see your own ability to call | forth intercession as a gift and treasure you are able to give in |
T2:12.8 | you, as a miracle-minded being, are not called upon to also call | forth the treasure that exists around you? When you call to those |
T2:12.13 | Let the beliefs we have set | forth become one with you so that they enable you to live and express |
T2:13.1 | The final call of this Treatise is, in contrast to those put | forth previously, a personal call from me to you. By now you have |
T2:13.4 | taking place around you, practice the beliefs that have been put | forth in this Treatise. Know that, in the time of unity, the truth |
T2:13.6 | journey together is just beginning as we return to the premise put | forth in “A Treatise on the Art of Thought:” that of the elevation of |
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 |
T3:22.18 | embraces you. The new is but the truth that has always existed. Go | forth and live the truth with impatience only for the truth. Hold |
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:9.9 | The same is true of the beliefs set | forth in “A Treatise on the Nature of Unity and Its Recognition”. |
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:14.13 | become your identity.” That treasure is the new way of thought put | forth in “A Treatise on the Art of Thought”, the thought that is the |
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:Day2.21 | with the recognition of who I am. This is symbolic of the idea put | forth here that until you are aware of who you are, your life has not |

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 |

W1:127.5 | as well. Seek not within the world to find your Self. Love is not | found in darkness and in death. Yet it is perfectly apparent to eyes |
W1:128.4 | and doubt. The worthless offer nothing. Certainty of worth cannot be | found in worthlessness. |
W1:129.2 | all things that you have cherished for a while. No lasting love is | found, for none is here. This is the world of time, where all things |
W1:130.4 | be valued but remain unreal. They can be sought, but they cannot be | found. |
W1:130.5 | not seek for them nor waste this day in seeking not what cannot be | found. It is impossible to see two worlds which have no overlap of |
W1:132.5 | waiting for your thoughts to give it meaning. Yet in truth you | found exactly what you looked for when you came. There is no world |

W1:165.3 | abandoning all else as worthless in comparison with them? And having | found them, would he not make sure they stay with him and he remains |

W1:194.4 | And so you are not asked to understand the lack of sequence really | found in time. You are but asked to let the future go and place it in |
W1:194.7 | except with love? For he who has escaped all fear of future pain has | found his way to present peace and certainty of care the world can |
W1:195.10 | goes hand in hand with love, and where one is, the other must be | found. For gratitude is but an aspect of the love which is the Source |
W1:196.2 | limitless and with all things held in its sure protection, can be | found in the idea we practice for today. It may in fact appear to be |

W2:251.1 | I sought for many things and | found despair. Now do I seek but one, for in that one is all I need |
W2:262.2 | unity. For there is peace, and nowhere else can peace be sought and | found. |
W2:275.1 | things are protected. And in this the healing of the Voice of God is | found. |

Tx:3.13 | It is unwise to accept any concept if you have to turn a whole | frame of reference around in order to justify it. This procedure is |
Tx:3.27 | that he is not in his right mind. This is hardly a miracle-based | frame of reference. It also has the disastrous effect of denying the |

Tx:1.101 | Believe this and you will be | free. Only God can establish this solution, and this faith is His |

Tx:3.71 | circular reasoning involved in his position would be quite apparent. | Free will must lead to freedom. Judgment always imprisons because |
Tx:4.3 | you can accept it as your own last foolish journey, you are also | free to join my resurrection. Human living has indeed been needlessly |

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:5.72 | it free. Your ego cannot accept this freedom and will oppose your | free decision at every possible moment and in every possible way. And |
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:6.77 | You are not asked to make insane decisions, although you are | free to think you are. It must, however, be insane to believe |
Tx:7.13 | he perceives himself as a mind can [he overcome this]. Then he is | free to use terms like “intramental” and “intermental” without |

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:8.78 | louder without violating your will, which the Holy Spirit seeks to | free but never to command. |
Tx:9.89 | You are not | free to give up freedom, but only to deny it. You cannot do what |
Tx:9.101 | creating worlds, but it can also deny what it creates because it is | free. |
Tx:9.102 | interfere with you, because He would not know His Son if he were not | free. To interfere with you would be to attack Himself, and God is |

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:15.90 | with his release and what the Holy Spirit must undo to set him | free. For his belief in limits has imprisoned him. |
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 |
Tx:31.94 | hear, and you will choose again. And in this choice is everyone made | free. |
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 |
W1:76.7 | which we would hide. We realize instead it is a truth which keeps us | free forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of God set free. The |
W1:76.7 | keeps us free forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of God set | free. The light has come because there are no laws but His. |
W1:78.10 | be denied. Your savior has been waiting long for this. He would be | free and make his freedom yours. The Holy Spirit leans from him to |
W1:78.10 | seeing no separation in God's Son. And what you see through Him will | free you both. |
W1:79.3 | to be no end to them. There is no time in which you feel completely | free of problems and at peace. |
W1:79.7 | to it. We will not assume that we already know. We will try to | free our minds of all the many different kinds of problems that we |
W1:80.5 | problems have been solved. Recognize that you are out of conflict, | free, and at peace. Above all, remember that you have one problem and |
W1:80.8 | not to collect grievances today. Let us be determined to be | free of problems that do not exist. The means is simple honesty. Do |
W1:88.5 | in them. They have no real effect on me at all. I am perfectly | free of the effects of all laws save God's. And His are the laws of |
W1:96.7 | the release of His dear Son bring pain to him and fail to set him | free? |
W1:96.10 | you about your Self, and what your mind can do, restored to it and | free to serve its will. |
W1:97.9 | of all limits, safe and healed and whole, free to forgive, and | free to save the world. |
W1:101.7 | the Will of God. But turn to it in confidence that it will set you | free from all the consequences sin has wrought in feverish |
W1:102.2 | in existence like itself. You have been slave to nothing. Be you | free today to join the happy Will of God. |
W1:105.9 | yourself to recognize God's gifts to you and let your mind be | free of all that would prevent success today. Now are you ready to |
W1:106.10 | by you. It will begin the ministry for which you came and which will | free the world from thinking giving is a way to lose. And so the |
W1:107.15 | the world and Him Who would release the world as He would set you | free. |
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 |
W1:125.9 | your practicing today lift you above the thinking of the world and | free your vision from the body's eyes. Only be still and listen. You |
W1:127.6 | Today we practice making | free our minds of all the laws you think you must obey, of all the |
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 | the level where it finds itself at home. It will be grateful to be | free a while. It knows where it belongs. But free its wings, and it |
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 |
W1:132.12 | were created, so it is your thoughts which made it and must set it | free that you may know the thoughts you share with God. |
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 |
W1:134.10 | in terms which render choosing meaningful and keep your mind as | free of guilt and pain as God Himself intended it to be and as it is |
W1:135.14 | mind sets up to save itself must make the body sick. It is not | free to be a means of helping in a plan which far exceeds its own |
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. |
W1:154.14 | I am grateful that I have the means by which to recognize that I am | free. |
W1:161.10 | destroy itself? Or would you have it be revealed to you and set you | free? |
W1:161.13 | Ask this of him that he may set you | free: |
W1:166.6 | needs but realize Who walks with him and open up his treasures to be | free? |
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, |
W1:177.2 | [163] There is no death. The Son of God is | free. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
W1:186.5 | to experience which might affront their stance. Yet are the humble | free to hear the Voice which tells them what they are and what to do. |
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 | One holy thought like this, and you are | free: you are the holy Son of God Himself. And with this holy |
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 |
W1:191.13 | are the holy Son of God Himself. Remember this and all the world is | free. Remember this and earth and Heaven are one. |
W1:192.8 | forgiven everyone he sees or thinks of or imagines? Who could be set | free while he imprisons anyone? A jailer is not free, for he is bound |
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. |
W1:193.16 | to the happenings the hour brought, so that the next one is | free of the one before. The chains of time are easily unloosened in |
W1:194.5 | was kept hidden in God's Son is freed to bless the world. Now is he | free, and all his glory shines upon a world made free with him to |
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 |
W1:197.9 | Give thanks as you receive it. Be you | free of all ingratitude to anyone who makes your Self complete. And |
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:R6.4 | I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
W1:200.1 | whole that is my Self, forever one with me. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
W1:202.1 | has given me His Voice to call me home? I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
W1:203.1 | of sin, because it is my own as well as His. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
W1:204.1 | to time, unbound by laws which rule the world of sick illusions, | free in God, forever and forever one with Him. I am not a body. I |
W1:204.1 | in God, forever and forever one with Him. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
W1:205.1 | life while I abide where I am not at home. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
W1:206.1 | give His gifts where He intended them to be. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
W1:207.1 | away as I accept His boundless Love for me. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |

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 | 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: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 |

Tx:18.20 | not as a source of pain and guilt, but as a source of joy and | freedom. It will not be for you alone, for therein lay its misery. As |
Tx:18.58 | beyond himself. This feeling of liberation far exceeds the dream of | freedom sometimes experienced in special relationships. It is a sense |
Tx:18.62 | of limit lifted for you, to welcome you to openness of mind and | freedom. Come to this place of refuge, where you can be yourself in |
Tx:19.10 | and would therefore share it. By faith you offer the gift of | freedom from the past, which you received. You do not use anything |

Tx:20.25 | they are made free. It takes a while for them to understand what | freedom is. You groped but feebly in the dust and found each |
Tx:20.25 | your eyes unto your strong companion, in whom the meaning of your | freedom lies. He seemed to be crucified beside you. And yet his |

Tx:20.31 | Those who choose | freedom will experience only its results. Their power is of God, and |
Tx:20.31 | sharing their power according to the Will of God. And thus their | freedom is established and maintained. It is upheld through all |

Tx:21.47 | into your minds. The ego's weakness is its strength. The song of | freedom, which sings the praises of another world, brings to it hope |
Tx:21.51 | There is another vision and another Voice in which your | freedom lies awaiting but your choice. And if you place your faith in |
Tx:21.53 | it must be so, it must exist. And if it exists for you and has your | freedom as the purpose given it, you must be free to find it. |

Tx:22.52 | Where | freedom of the body has been chosen, the mind is used as means whose |
Tx:22.52 | value lies in its ability to contrive ways to achieve the body's | freedom. Yet freedom of the body has no meaning, and so the mind is |
Tx:22.52 | in its ability to contrive ways to achieve the body's freedom. Yet | freedom of the body has no meaning, and so the mind is dedicated to |

Tx:24.32 | are all asleep, surrounded by a world of loveliness they do not see. | Freedom and peace and joy stand there beside the bier on which they |
Tx:24.53 | whole reversal of the laws that seem to rule this world. See in his | freedom yours, for such it is. Let not his specialness obscure the |
Tx:25.41 | It is no sacrifice that he be saved, for by his | freedom will you gain your own. To let his function be fulfilled is |
Tx:25.41 | gave to him for you! He has no need but this—that you allow him | freedom to complete the task God gave to him. Remembering but this— |
Tx:26.9 | that he may come forth to shine on you and give you back the gift of | freedom by receiving it of you. What is the Holy Spirit's special |
Tx:26.76 | has no meaning and is not your just reward. For you have cause for | freedom now. What profits freedom in a prisoner's form? Why should |
Tx:26.76 | your just reward. For you have cause for freedom now. What profits | freedom in a prisoner's form? Why should deliverance be disguised as |
Tx:26.77 | how holy he must be when in him sleeps your own salvation with his | freedom joined! However much you wish he be condemned, God is in him. |
Tx:26.80 | when They have come. What hatred claimed is given up to love, and | freedom lights up every living thing and lifts it into Heaven, where |
Tx:29.23 | is given power to forgive you your illusions. By your gift of | freedom is it given unto you. Make way for love, which you did not |
Tx:30.30 | here nor grounds for opposition that you may be free. There is no | freedom from what must occur. And if you think there is, you must be |
Tx:30.34 | How wonderful it is to do your will! For that is | freedom. There is nothing else that ever should be called by |
Tx:30.37 | This world awaits the | freedom you will give when you have recognized that you are free. |
Tx:30.37 | gave your will to you. For it is by your will the world is given | freedom. Nor can you be free apart from Him Whose holy will you |
Tx:30.37 | that he learn death has no power over him because he shares your | freedom as he shares your will. It is your will to heal him, and |
Tx:30.58 | as things not wanted and not striven for. The possibility of | freedom has been grasped and welcomed, and the means by which it can |
Tx:30.90 | takes the form of the appearance of his perfect health, his perfect | freedom from all forms of lack, and safety from disaster of all |
Tx:30.92 | you would heal, and He Who gives all miracles has not been given | freedom to bestow His gifts upon God's Son. When he is tempted, he |

W1:11.3 | possible. It contains the foundation for the peace, relaxation, and | freedom from worry that we are trying to achieve. On concluding the |
W1:31.4 | you are making a declaration of independence in the name of your own | freedom. And in your freedom lies the freedom of the world. |
W1:31.4 | of independence in the name of your own freedom. And in your | freedom lies the freedom of the world. |
W1:31.4 | in the name of your own freedom. And in your freedom lies the | freedom of the world. |
W1:57.4 | world as it is, and see it as a place where the Son of God finds his | freedom. |
W1:57.5 | could see peace instead of this. When I see the world as a place of | freedom, I will realize that it reflects the laws of God instead of |
W1:73.8 | not want to do so. Salvation is for you. Above all else you want the | freedom to remember who you really are. |
W1:76.3 | Think of the | freedom in the recognition that you are not bound by all the strange |
W1:76.14 | as subject to other laws throughout the day. It is our statement of | freedom from all danger and all tyranny. It is our acknowledgment |
W1:78.10 | savior has been waiting long for this. He would be free and make his | freedom yours. The Holy Spirit leans from him to you, seeing no |
W1:80.1 | been solved. One problem—one solution. Salvation is accomplished. | Freedom from conflict has been given you. Accept that fact, and you |
W1:88.5 | I am under no laws but God's. Here is the perfect statement of my | freedom. I am under no laws but God's. I am constantly tempted to |
W1:88.5 | free of the effects of all laws save God's. And His are the laws of | freedom. |
W1:99.9 | the strength in what you say, for these are words in which your | freedom lies. Your Father loves you. All the world of pain is not His |
W1:125.8 | as He speaks to you. It is your Word He speaks. It is the Word of | freedom and of peace, of unity of will and purpose, with no |
W1:128.5 | we wish it were. Thus do we lift the chains which bar the door to | freedom from the world and go beyond all little values and diminished |
W1:128.6 | Let it rest in its Creator, there to be restored to sanity, to | freedom, and to love. |
W1:130.9 | God offers me and see no value in this world that I may find my | freedom and deliverance. |
W1:130.13 | It is impossible to see two worlds. I seek my | freedom and deliverance, and this is not a part of what I want. |
W1:132.1 | It is but when their source is raised to question that the hope of | freedom comes to him at last. |
W1:132.20 | Throughout the day, increase the | freedom sent through your ideas to all the world, and say whenever |
W1:134.14 | of joining be no more delayed. For we would meet with our reality in | freedom and in peace. Our practicing becomes the footsteps lightening |
W1:134.18 | all the thoughts you had of sin in him. And now you are prepared for | freedom. If you have been practicing thus far in willingness and |
W1:137.8 | Healing is | freedom. For it demonstrates that dreams will not prevail against the |
W1:R4.7 | to learn what each idea you will review that day can offer you in | freedom and in peace. Open your mind and clear it of all thoughts |
W1:161.5 | It seems to be the body that we feel limits our | freedom, makes us suffer, and at last puts out our life. Yet bodies |
W1:164.8 | it in the light in which our Savior looks on us and offer it the | freedom given us through His forgiving vision, now our own. Open the |
W1:170.1 | of cruelty. You mean that you believe to hurt another brings you | freedom. And you mean that to attack is to exchange the state in |
W1:I2.2 | of liberation which their lifting brings. But the experience of | freedom and of peace that comes as you give up your tight control of |
W1:192.8 | world in which the jailer lives, along with him. And it is on his | freedom that the way to liberty depends for both of them. |
W1:192.10 | deserves your mercy. It is he who asks that you accept the way to | freedom now. Deny him not. His Father's Love for him belongs to you. |
W1:194.2 | imprisonment by loosening the heavy chains that locked the door to | freedom on it. You are saved, and your salvation thus becomes the |
W1:195.4 | offer thanks to God our Father that in us all things will find their | freedom. It will never be that some are loosed while others still are |
W1:196.4 | one step we take in leading us from bondage to the state of perfect | freedom. Let us take this step today that we may quickly go the way |
W1:196.9 | strong, and it is strength you want. And you are free and glad of | freedom. You have sought to be both weak and bound because you feared |
W1:196.9 | to be both weak and bound because you feared your strength and | freedom. Yet salvation lies in them. |
W1:197.2 | your strength until guilt and salvation are not seen as one, and | freedom and salvation are perceived as joined, with strength beside |
W1:198.1 | 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 gave. |
W1:198.2 | rules perception. It is not a law that knowledge understands, for | freedom is a part of knowledge. To condemn is thus impossible in |
W1:198.9 | Today we practice letting | freedom come to make its home with you. The truth bestows these words |
W1:199.1 | Freedom must be impossible as long as you perceive a body as | |
W1:199.1 | perceive a body as yourself. The body is a limit. Who would seek for | freedom in a body looks for it where it cannot be found. The mind can |
W1:199.5 | will not gain in added gifts to you as well. We sound the call of | freedom round the world with this idea. And would you be exempt from |
W1:199.6 | The Holy Spirit is the home of minds that seek for | freedom. In Him they find what they have sought. The body's purpose |
W1:199.6 | and unequivocal response to mind with but the thought of | freedom as its goal, the body serves, and serves its purpose well. |
W1:199.6 | well. Without the power to enslave, it is a worthy servant of the | freedom which the mind within the Holy Spirit seeks. |
W1:199.7 | Be free today, and carry | freedom as your gift to those who still believe they are enslaved |
W1:199.7 | calls to you to make this gift to Him. For He would give you perfect | freedom, perfect joy, and hope that finds its full accomplishment in |
W1:200.5 | Freedom is given you where you beheld but chains and iron doors. For | |
W1:200.8 | Now the way is easy, sloping gently toward the bridge where | freedom lies within the peace of God. |
W1:R6.6 | then forget all that we thought we knew and understood. For thus is | freedom given us from all we did not know and failed to understand. |
W1:R6.8 | When you are tempted, hasten to proclaim your | freedom from temptation, as you say: |
W1:R6.11 | for the way each practice period can best become a loving gift of | freedom to the world. |
W1:212.1 | illusions of the world. Only the function God has given me can offer | freedom. Only this I seek, and only this will I accept as mine. I |
W2:WS.5 | The song of our rejoicing is the call to all the world that | freedom is returned, that time is almost over, and God's Son has but |
W2:277.2 | idols nor believe in any laws idolatry would make to hide the | freedom of the Son of God. He is not bound except by his beliefs. Yet |
W2:277.2 | his beliefs. 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 |

W2:279.1 | dreams are gone, with truth established in their place. And now is | freedom his already. Should I wait in chains which have been severed |
W2:279.1 | chains which have been severed for release, when God is offering me | freedom now? |
W2:280.1 | of God, whose Father willed that he be limitless and like Himself in | freedom and in love? |
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 have searched in |
W2:321.1 | no more. For I have neither made nor understood the way to find my | freedom. But I trust in You. You Who endowed me with my freedom as |
W2:321.1 | to find my freedom. But I trust in You. You Who endowed me with my | freedom as Your holy Son will not be lost to me. Your Voice directs |
W2:321.1 | And the way to You is opening and clear to me at last. Father, my | freedom is in You alone. Father, it is my will that I return. |
W2:321.2 | which will be freed along with us. How glad are we to find our | freedom through the certain way our Father has established. And how |

T4:2.8 | I belabor this point because you literally cannot proceed to | full awareness while ideas such as more and better remain in you. As |

D:7.17 | vision, is still related to the self of form. It is a step toward | full acceptance and awareness of who you are now and what this means |
D:11.6 | just as learning now no longer serves you? If you reach a state of | full acceptance of who you are, and in that state, fully accept that |
D:11.10 | well of spirit from which true answers are drawn. Your heart is a | full well, a wellspring from which you can continually draw with no |
D:13.9 | of unity alone. Why then would you think that you could come to | full expression of what you have come to know without sharing in |
D:16.3 | To be barren is to be empty. Empty is the opposite of | full, the opposite of wholeness. It is the perceived condition of |
D:17.9 | would hope to best. It simply is what it is: A moment of presence | full of both desire and fulfillment. |
D:17.14 | just as learning now no longer serves you? If you reach a state of | full acceptance of who you are, and in that state, fully accept that |
D:17.15 | Your heart is a | full well. It is because you have now turned to your heart, instead |

D:Day2.1 | Self is acceptance of your inheritance. Now is the time to come into | full acceptance of the human self as well as the Self of unity. It is |
D:Day4.7 | same way that you do. Early man had no language. His mind was not | full of thoughts. Early man and early childhood can thus be linked as |
D:Day4.44 | it all, accept it all—for you cannot have of this in parts. Once | full access has been revealed, what is yours is everything. But you |
D:Day4.49 | I can make you aware of until you have made your choice and have | full realization of your access to unity. You will be able, of |
D:Day4.51 | To be called to make a new choice before | full acceptance of what is would be confusing. You who are thinking |
D:Day4.51 | You who are thinking that you have not moved through the stages to | full acceptance answer now as to what is stopping you. Do you choose |
D:Day4.53 | As we move into | full access and awareness of unity, love is all that is required. |
D:Day5.1 | A point of access will no longer be needed once | full entry is attained, just as a key is no longer needed once a door |
D:Day5.22 | is gone, effort remains, and while it remains, you will not realize | full access to what you are given. We are speaking here of letting |

D:Day8.17 | —in the present, as you are—for only by doing so will you come to | full acceptance of who you are and be able to allow the Self of unity |

D:Day16.1 | Accepting everything that can't be seen, including the unknown, is | full consciousness. Acceptance is key. You can't accept what you fear. |

D:Day17.9 | Mary. Mary, like Jesus, realized full Christ-consciousness and | full expression of Christ-consciousness in form. Each did so in |
D:Day18.4 | life is to choose to be made known by, and to, the many. It is | full acceptance of the Self in a form that can be distinguished, or |
D:Day18.4 | form that can be distinguished, or individuated from the rest. It is | full acceptance of difference as well as sameness and of the |
D:Day18.7 | you do this must be chosen, and for this choice to be made with | full consciousness, you must rely on your feelings. |

D:Day33.15 | with everything and everyone all of the time, is to realize the | full extent of your power. You cannot realize that you are in |
D:Day35.14 | Being a creator must begin with | full realization of oneness of being, which is unity, because without |

D:Day38.4 | Being | full of love for one another is the beginning of extension, the end |
D:Day38.13 | many. We are the same and we are different. In “own”-ership we are | full of one another's own being. We are each other's own. |

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 | of participation. In unity, all that you desired was participated in | fully by a mind and heart combined in wholeheartedness. You knew your |
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 |
C:20.32 | long as you fear your own ability to know what you do, you cannot be | fully cooperative. |

C:30.1 | for your own life, your own Self, your own being. If you were | fully aware of your own being, you would be in oneness with Your |
C:31.2 | This is the clarification that needs to be made for some of you to | fully let go of your fear of the shared thought system of unity. |
C:31.8 | that the Earth and all on the Earth are part of. You believe | fully that you are inseparable from the Earth, the cosmos, gravity, |
T1:4.2 | the truth of who you are. This Treatise will put your instruction | fully under my guidance and allow you to disregard the instruction of |
T1:10.2 | peace does not. It will seem so human that a wave of desire to be | fully human will wash over you. You will think that this human who |
T1:10.2 | you. You will think that this human who has caught your attention is | fully engaged and fully experiencing the moment. You will think this |
T1:10.2 | that this human who has caught your attention is fully engaged and | fully experiencing the moment. You will think this is what you want. |
T1:10.2 | attracted by both for the same reason, the reason of wanting to be | fully engaged in the human experience. |
T1:10.3 | Here is this experience you have created and how often have you been | fully engaged 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 | Until you have | fully integrated the truth that giving and receiving are one, you |
T2:5.7 | integrated the truth that giving and receiving are one, you will not | fully believe that needs are not lacks. Until you have fully |
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 | is already accomplished that needs adjustment now. As a tree exists | fully accomplished within its seed and yet grows and changes, 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 |
T2:12.10 | her garden. The gardener knows that although the plant exists | fully realized within its seed, it also needs the relationship of |
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 |
T4:12.10 | separated self, which is why it is no longer needed. You will not | fully realize unity while you continue to hang on to this condition |

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:5.17 | what is not. While the question of what is not has been answered as | fully as is possible, your questions and my answers in regard to what |

D:11.6 | 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: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 |
E.5 | You are returned to your natural Self, and as you begin to move more | fully back into your life, you will realize where the differences |

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:4.16 | yourselves. You are not at peace because you are not fulfilling your | function. God gave you a very lofty responsibility which you are not |
Tx:4.28 | Belief is an ego | function, and as long as your origin is open to belief at all, you |
Tx:4.74 | because the eternal must come from God. Eternalness is the one | function which the ego has tried to develop but has systematically |
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 | of Him and learned of what He had already given. Our function is to | function together, because apart from each other we cannot function |
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. |
Tx:27.28 | as one because It is not split in purpose and conceives a single | function as Its only one. Here is the function given It conceived |
Tx:27.28 | and conceives a single function as Its only one. Here is the | function given It conceived to be Its own and not apart from that Its |
Tx:27.28 | Giver keeps because it has been shared. In His acceptance of this | function lies the means whereby your mind is unified. His single |
Tx:27.35 | come, not to destroy, but to receive Its own. There is no choice of | function anywhere. The choice you fear to lose you never had. Yet |
Tx:27.57 | could it tell a part of God Himself what it should feel and what its | function is. Yet must He love whatever you hold dear. And for each |
Tx:27.61 | effects with you. And no one will elect to suffer more. What better | function could you serve than this? Be healed that you may heal, and |
Tx:28.24 | a cause. The miracle is the first step in giving back to cause the | function of causation, not effect. For this confusion has produced |
Tx:28.26 | it also shows that, having no effects, it is not cause because the | function of causation is to have effects. And where effects are gone, |
Tx:28.44 | The Holy Spirit's | function is to take the broken picture of the Son of God and put the |
Tx:28.52 | Creation proves reality because it shares the | function all creation shares. It is not made of little bits of glass, |
Tx:29.12 | to demand escape from sin and pain of what was made to serve the | function of retaining sin and pain. For pain and sin are one |
Tx:29.27 | In simplest form it can be said attack is a response to | function unfulfilled as you perceive the function. It can be in you |
Tx:29.27 | attack is a response to function unfulfilled as you perceive the | function. It can be in you or someone else, but where it is |
Tx:29.28 | When you are angry, is it not because someone has failed to fill the | function you allotted him? And does not this become the “reason” |
Tx:29.28 | more or less. They are desired or not. And each one represents some | function which you have assigned, some goal which an event, or body, |
Tx:29.29 | becomes a brother giving you a chance to help if this becomes the | function of the dream. And dreams of sadness thus are turned to joy. |
Tx:29.30 | What is your brother for? You do not know because your | function is obscure to you. Do not ascribe a role to him which you |
Tx:29.30 | in every dream he has, and you have help to give him if you see the | function of the dream as He perceives its function, Who can utilize |
Tx:29.30 | to give him if you see the function of the dream as He perceives its | function, Who can utilize all dreams as means to serve the function |
Tx:29.30 | its function, Who can utilize all dreams as means to serve the | function given Him. Because He loves the dreamer not the dream, each |
Tx:29.33 | very still and hear God's Voice in him and let It tell you what his | function is. He was created that you might be whole, for only the |
Tx:29.36 | share this dream? Because unless the Holy Spirit gives the dream its | function, it was made for hate and will continue in death's services. |
Tx:29.37 | dream that has been kept apart from use by Him Who sees a different | function for a dream. When dreams are shared, they lose the function |
Tx:29.37 | function for a dream. When dreams are shared, they lose the | function of attack and separation, even though it was for this that |
Tx:29.41 | You were not born to die. You cannot change, because your | function has been fixed by God. All other goals are set in time and |
Tx:29.41 | it is gone. And where it once held seeming sway is now restored the | function God established for His Son in full awareness. Time can set |
Tx:29.41 | its changelessness. There is no death because the living share the | function their Creator gave to them. Life's function cannot be to |
Tx:29.41 | the living share the function their Creator gave to them. Life's | function cannot be to die. It must be life's extension, that it be as |
Tx:31.16 | this his purpose is. Unless he serves it, he has not fulfilled the | function that was given him by you. And thus he merits death because |
Tx:31.73 | The concept of yourself which now you hold would guarantee your | function here remain forever unaccomplished and undone. And thus it |
Tx:31.73 | to Him Who understands the changes that it needs to let it serve the | function given you to bring you peace that you may offer peace to |
W1:15.1 | think you see them. This is how your “seeing” was made. This is the | function you have given your body's eyes. It is not seeing. It is |
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 |
W1:43.18 | slip by without remembering today's idea and thus remembering your | function. |
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 | Forgiveness is my | function as the light of the world. I would fulfill my function that |
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 |
W1:64.1 | temptation.” The purpose of the world you see is to obscure your | function of forgiveness and provide you with a justification for |
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 |
W1:96.6 | and sees itself as helpless, limited, and weak. Dissociated from its | function now, it thinks it is alone and separate, attacked by armies |
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 |
W1:97.2 | and joy. You are the Spirit which completes Himself and shares His | function as Creator. He is with you always, as you are with Him. |
W1:98.3 | to do. They do not doubt their own ability because they know their | function will be filled completely in the perfect time and place. |
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. |
W1:100.1 | bodies which lead separate lives and go their separate ways. One | function shared by separate minds unites them in one purpose, for |
W1:100.2 | be understood by those to whom He sends you. They will see their | function in your shining face and hear God calling to them in your |
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: |
W1:153.8 | world, and we would not exchange for foolishness the endless joy our | function offers us. We would not let our happiness slip by because a |
W1:153.11 | It is the | function of God's ministers to help their brothers choose as they |
W1:154.1 | but attempts to hold decision off, and to delay commitment to our | function. It is not our part to judge our worth, nor can we know what |
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 |
W1:186.10 | will go and leave your mind unclouded and serene when you accept the | function given you. The images you make give rise to but conflicting |
W1:186.11 | the sun's return each morning to dispel the night, your truly given | function stands out clear and wholly unambiguous. There is no doubt |
W1:186.12 | voice direct you. Hear instead a certain Voice Which tells you of a | function given you by your Creator, Who remembers you and urges that |
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 |
W1:186.14 | Salvation of the world depends on you who can forgive. Such is your | function here. |
W1:192.1 | name, forever one with God and with your Self. Yet what can such a | function mean within a world of envy, hatred, and attack? Therefore |
W1:192.1 | within a world of envy, hatred, and attack? Therefore you have a | function in the world in its own terms. For who can understand a |
W1:192.2 | Forgiveness represents your | function here. It is not God's creation, for it is the means by which |
W1:192.10 | now. Deny him not. His Father's Love for him belongs to you. Your | function here on earth is only to forgive him, that you may accept |
W1:193.4 | into the mind of His most holy Son with peace and joy fulfills His | function now. He redirects each lesson you would teach in hate to one |
W1:195.6 | be made which would reduce our wholeness nor impair or change our | function to complete the One Who is Himself completion. We give |
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 |
W1:R6.5 | it every time the hour strikes or we remember in between we have a | function that transcends the world we see. Beyond this and a |
W1:205.1 | the aim of all my living here, the end I seek, my purpose and my | function and my life while I abide where I am not at home. I am not |
W1:212.1 | [192] I have a | function God would have me fill. I seek the function that would set |
W1:212.1 | [192] I have a function God would have me fill. I seek the | function that would set me free from all the vain illusions of the |
W1:212.1 | would set me free from all the vain illusions of the world. Only the | function God has given me can offer freedom. Only this I seek, and |
W2:WF.5 | your ultimate success. He has forgiven you already, for such is His | function given Him by God. Now must you share His function and |
W2:WF.5 | for such is His function given Him by God. Now must you share His | function and forgive whom He has saved, whose sinlessness He sees, |
W2:WIW.5 | has been made complete. And let us not attempt to change our | function. We must save the world. For we who made it must behold it |
W2:257.1 | No one can serve contradicting goals and serve them well. Nor can he | function without deep distress and great depression. Let us therefore |
W2:270.1 | Your memory returns to him. And now his will is one with Yours. His | function now is but Your own, and every thought except Your own is |
W2:WIHS.5 | is restored to God's beloved Son. Would you refuse to take the | function of completing God when all He wills is that you be complete? |
W2:WILJ.2 | sin and wholly purposeless. Without a cause and now without a | function in Christ's sight, it merely slips away to nothingness. |
W2:WICR.4 | which know their oneness and their unity with their Creator. Let our | function be only to let this memory return, only to let God's Will be |
W2:330.1 | Let us this day accept forgiveness as our only | function. Why should we attack our minds and give them images of |
W2:WIM.1 | error but does not attempt to go beyond perception nor exceed the | function of forgiveness. Thus it stays within time's limits. Yet it |
W2:343.1 | Your Son can make no sacrifice, for he must be complete, having the | function of completing You. I am complete because I am Your Son. I |
W2:WAI.2 | is not for words to speak of nor describe. Yet we can realize our | function here, and words can speak of this and teach it, too, if we |
W2:WAI.3 | and perceive all things as kindly and as good. We do not seek a | function that is past the gates of Heaven. Knowledge will return when |
W2:FL.3 | let us dedicate our minds, directing all our thoughts to serve the | function of salvation. Unto us the aim is given to forgive the world. |
W2:FL.4 | It is our | function to remember Him on earth, as it is given us to be His own |

M:4.3 | This is the foundation on which their ability to fulfill their | function rests. Perception is the result of learning. In fact, |

M:5.8 | not. For those already willing to change their mind he has no | function except to rejoice with them, for they have become teachers |

M:12.6 | are recognized for what they are? Awareness of dreaming is the real | function of God's teachers. They watch the dream figures come and go, |
M:14.4 | to leave the world and go beyond its tiny reach. What, then, is the | function of the teacher of God in this concluding lesson? He need |
M:14.5 | for it will not end as it began. To turn hell into Heaven is the | function of God's teachers, for what they teach are lessons in which |
M:15.3 | not yet. But this is still your goal—why you are here. It is your | function to prepare yourself to hear this judgment and to recognize |
M:15.4 | His judgment, and His alone, will be accepted in the end. It is your | function to make that end be soon. It is your function to hold it to |

M:28.1 | It is the dream in which the body functions perfectly, having no | function except communication. It is the lesson in which learning |
M:28.6 | is replaced with blessing. Judgment is laid by and given Him Whose | function judgment is. And in His Final Judgment is restored the truth |
M:29.2 | is His, and He alone is fit to assume it. To do so is His | function. To refer the questions to Him is yours. Would you want to |

Tx:11.96 | and always must be now. Guilt, then, is a way of holding past and | future in your minds to ensure the ego's continuity. For if what has |

Tx:12.48 | depending on whose interpretation of it you use. Past, present, and | future are not continuous unless you force continuity on them. You |
Tx:12.48 | destroy time's continuity by breaking it into past, present, and | future for your own purposes. You would anticipate the future on |
Tx:12.48 | and future for your own purposes. You would anticipate the | future on the basis of your past experience and plan for it |

W1:127.9 | of what you learn. Let us give thanks today that we are spared a | future like the past. Today we leave the past behind us, never more |
W1:127.9 | remembered. And we raise our eyes upon a different present, where a | future shines unlike the past in every attribute. |
W1:131.7 | It is here today. Time is the great illusion; it is past or in the | future. Yet this cannot be, if it is where God wills His Son to be. |

W1:135.20 | Your present trust in Him is the defense which promises a | future undisturbed, without a trace of sorrow and with joy which |

W1:169.6 | It returns the mind into the endless present, where the past and | future cannot be conceived. It lies beyond salvation—past all |
W1:181.3 | and only this, for just a little while. We do not care about our | future goals, and what we saw an instant previous has no concern for |
W1:181.4 | A major hazard to success has been involvement with your past and | future goals. You have been quite preoccupied with how extremely |
W1:181.4 | your way again. How could this matter? For the past is gone, the | future but imagined. These concerns are but defenses against present |
W1:181.6 | So, for a little while, without regard to past or | future, should such blocks arise, we will transcend them with |
W1:188.2 | This light cannot be lost. Why wait to find it in the | future or believe it has been lost already or was never there? It can |
W1:194.4 | God holds your | future as He holds your past and present. They are one to Him, and so |
W1:194.4 | lack of sequence really found in time. You are but asked to let the | future go and place it in God's hands. And you will see by your |
W1:194.4 | in His hands as well because the past will punish you no more and | future dread will now be meaningless. |
W1:194.5 | Release the | future. For the past is gone, and what is present, freed from its |
W1:194.7 | What worry can beset the one who gives his | future to the loving hands of God? What can he suffer? What can cause |
W1:194.7 | can he regard except with love? For he who has escaped all fear of | future pain has found his way to present peace and certainty of care |
W1:194.8 | Place, then, your | future in the hands of God. For thus you call the memory of Him to |
W1:195.9 | and pushed about without a thought or care for us or for our | future. Gratitude becomes the single thought we substitute for these |

W1:214.1 | I place the future in the hands of God. The past is gone; the | future is not yet. Now am I freed from both. For what God gives can |
W2:279.1 | dreams is there a time when he appears to be in prison and awaits a | future freedom if it be at all. Yet in reality his dreams are gone, |
W2:308.1 | of what time is for. Time's purpose cannot be to keep the past and | future one. The only interval in which I can be saved from time is |

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 |
T3:20.7 | ease suffering, and you might pray that God spare this one from a | future seemingly already written, and think that is more realistic |
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 |
T4:1.13 | of those who have come before you as failures? Has the seed of the | future lain dormant in the past? Could it have been activated |
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 |
T4:6.4 | this time of direct revelation and direct sharing, the probable | future you imagine, envision, desire, will be what you create. This |

T4:10.5 | that of love. Relationship happens as it happens. Studying is about | future outcome. What happens in relationship has present moment |
T4:10.14 | unity and relationship. You can learn from the past but not from the | future. When you build upon what you can learn you build upon the |
T4:10.14 | upon what you can learn you build upon the past and create not the | future but an extension of the past. You who are called to leave |
T4:11.1 | The | future is yet to be created. This is why I stated at the onset of |
T4:11.1 | that this Treatise would not be predictive. Many predictions of the | future have been made, and many of them have been called prophecy. |
T4:11.1 | have been made, and many of them have been called prophecy. But the | future is yet to be created. |
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. |
T4:11.5 | to whom you turn, but as an equal partner in the creation of the | future through the sustainability of Christ-consciousness. |
T4:12.1 | my new brothers and sisters in Christ, to the creation of the | future through the sustainability of Christ-consciousness. Today we |
T4:12.32 | This is the time that is before us, the time of creation of the | future, the time of the creation of a future not based upon the past. |
T4:12.32 | the time of creation of the future, the time of the creation of a | future not based upon the past. |
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 |
T4:12.35 | the only guarantees that are known to us is that it will be a | future of love, a future without fear, a future with unlimited |
T4:12.35 | that are known to us is that it will be a future of love, a | future without fear, a future with unlimited freedom. For what more |
T4:12.35 | to us is that it will be a future of love, a future without fear, a | future with unlimited freedom. For what more could we ask? And what |
D:3.2 | not a death knell but a call to life. It is not of the past or the | future but of the eternal now. It is within you as we speak, the tone |
D:3.9 | ideas that will allow new patterns to emerge and the design of the | future to be created. These are the ideas that replace the learned |
D:5.18 | mind and the thoughts that so confuse you, the prison of past and | future and a now that isn't changing fast enough to suit the new you |
D:5.19 | it to be. From this starting point only can we move forward to the | future we create together. |
D:7.16 | that is why so many of you think of envisioning as envisioning the | future. Envisioning is less bound to time than is observation because |

D:15.1 | It has not always been the same, and it will not be the same in the | future as it is now. But there are certain principles that govern |
D:16.19 | they are not real. They are no more real than the mirage of your | future, another aspect of the image you have held of yourself. They |
D:17.18 | Provision is about preparation for | future needs. This is an appropriate response to want, but it is an |

D:Day3.23 | you have “enough,” you are sure it will not be enough for what the | future holds. And if you ever need evidence for this position, it is |
D:Day7.20 | condition of the present. Realize you may say you are certain of the | future or the past but that you cannot make it so. Thus your ability |

D:Day9.15 | the ego but dangled before you in the place it called the | future. As with all messages of the ego, it but says that who you are |
D:Day9.25 | of who another is. You cannot express the beauty and truth of a | future self. You can only express the beauty and truth of who you are |
