T4:3.6  is also what has kept you seemingly forever unable to return to your  natural state of being. The fear that was birthed along with the
T4:3.7  judged God from within the nature of fear, believing it to be your  natural state.
T4:3.8 As the  natural state of love is returned to you, judgment falls away because
T4:3.9 The vision that will arise in you now is not new. It is your  natural vision, the vision of love. What is new is the elevation of
T4:3.9  of the personal self that will be caused by the return of your  natural state of love. This is where observation comes in.
T4:3.11 Vision is the  natural means of knowing of all who were created in love. Observation
T4:3.11  means of knowing of all who were created in love. Observation 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 the means by which

T4:7.5  What we are speaking of is abiding in your natural state. Your  natural state is one free of fear and judgment. This is all that
T4:7.5  and judgment. This is all that makes up the difference between your  natural state and your unnatural state. As your natural state returns
T4:7.5  between your natural state and your unnatural state. As your  natural state returns to you through a heart and mind joined in

T2:1.1  it will become your identity. We will begin by discussing the  nature of treasure.
T2:2.3  That rising and setting with the sun is in their blood, in the very  nature of who they are. That being one with the land is essential to
T2:2.7  before following a calling, who look for reasons of a practical  nature, who would seek guarantees of the rightness and outcome of
T2:2.7  and to imagine the existence of that which will reveal its true  nature and its joy.
T2:4.10  step in our work with regard to calling is recognizing the dualistic  nature of your thoughts and feelings. A second step is willingness to
T2:4.18  speed, a speed that cannot be measured because of its simultaneous  nature. As was said within A Course of Love, time is but a
T2:5.1  comes as a light shone into the darkness and is revelatory in  nature. Other calls will come as announcements, signs, or even as
T2:5.2 Again let me stress the present-moment  nature of being called. A call is, at its most basic level, a means
T2:6.7  known fact, an object with an identity, but also part of the ongoing  nature of creation. Could this be true of a chair and not be true of
T2:7.21  as one becomes simply an aspect of your identity and accepted as the  nature of who you are in truth.
T2:8.2  go. All that will complement who you are must be received. Thus the  nature of many relationships may be required to change. Remember now
T2:8.6  of who you are and to come to an acceptance of the unchangeable  nature of this truth. This is akin to being done with seeking. This
T2:9.12  that no matter how good or right or meaningful, loses its creative  nature by remaining static.
T2:10.6  to be distinguishable from wants by a discussion of their shared  nature, so too now must knowing be distinguished from what you
T3:4.7  ego-self with another. The training of this Course, while gentle in  nature, has been great, as great as that of any military training, as
T3:10.6  past you have struggled with only because you did not realize the  nature of the situation as a lesson or recognize that all lessons are
T3:13.7  old idea is consistent with all beliefs of an “if this then that”  nature. You might start practicing this idea by repeating these words
T3:14.12  is not of you but of God. You might think of this in terms of  nature and look upon nature's ability to correct itself. You are a
T3:14.12  and look upon nature's ability to correct itself. You are a part of  nature. Your body can correct or heal itself, and so can your mind
T3:15.1  the births of new family members form new configurations in a life.  Nature begins anew each spring.
T3:15.16  can, with the help of the new thought system, change the very  nature of the self described by the words human being. This calls for
T3:16.3  much advancement to the forms you occupy without changing their  nature in the slightest measure. All the effort of the ego has not
T3:17.2  go in determining, through its processes, what this says about the  nature of humankind but it is closer every day to understanding the
T3:17.3  beginnings and endings to the finite experience of time. It is the  nature of what is finite to begin and end. Birth and death are all
T3:19.14  being moved to believe that they mean anything at all about the  nature of who you are. This is why no more time can be wasted and why
T3:20.10  new thought system is not tied to beliefs of an “if this, then that”  nature. Look at the examples all around you. People who live what you
T3:21.18  This will cause your existence to seem to have more of a dualistic  nature for a short time while you carry observance forward into
T3:22.10  tired of the way things were, uninterested in matters of a personal  nature. This very readiness is what I now call your attention to as I
T4:1.7  allows no room for choice. In their rebellion against the mandatory  nature of their chosenness or opportunity, they might easily choose
T4:1.7  or opportunity, they might easily choose not to learn. The  nature of life, however, is one of learning, and if they do not learn
T4:1.19  what they came to know through similarly indirect means. This is the  nature of learning and of sharing in relationship. Means and end are
T4:1.20  continued to occur even unto this time. You have learned much of the  nature of the truth by seeing what you have perceived as the contrast
T4:2.7  That those who came before did not become aware of their true  nature does not mean that it did not exist; that there are others
T4:2.7  among you in this time who will not become aware of their true  nature does not mean that it does not exist within them. You are no
T4:2.12  realizing that the elevated “place” they briefly hold is of a finite  nature, that others will soon do the same, and that those who follow
T4:2.28  I could see my brothers and sisters “in Christ” or in their true  nature. I saw them in union and relationship, where they saw
T4:3.3  self is still in need of being elevated—elevated to its original  nature—by its original nature or intent. The devotion of the
T4:3.3  being elevated—elevated to its original nature—by its original  nature or intent. The devotion of the observant will return you to
T4:3.4 Original intent has everything to do with the  nature of things for original intent is synonymous with cause. The
T4:3.4  in observable form. This original intent or cause formed the true  nature of the personal self capable of being observed in
T4:3.4  intent, while it did not change the original cause, formed a false  nature for the personal self. This displacement of the original
T4:3.5  and to express who you are is the result of the displacement of the  nature of love with the nature of fear. What we now are about is
T4:3.5  are is the result of the displacement of the nature of love with the  nature of fear. What we now are about is reversing this displacement
T4:3.5  about is reversing this displacement and returning you to your true  nature.
T4:3.6  birthed along with the erroneously inherited idea that it was your  nature to be separate and alone and thus fearful, made relationships
T4:3.7  fear's veracity. While you chose to believe and live in a world the  nature of which was fear, you could not know God. You could not know
T4:3.7  God. You could not know God because you judged God from within the  nature of fear, believing it to be your natural state.
T4:3.10 Vision will allow you to see the  nature of the world and all that exists within it truly. Observation
T4:3.10  you to elevate the personal self to its rightful place within the  nature of a world of love.
T4:3.12  form of the created. Vision is the means by which the original  nature of the created can once again be known. Observation is the
T4:3.12  once again be known. Observation is the means by which the original  nature of the created can newly be seen in physical form. Once the
T4:3.12  of the created can newly be seen in physical form. Once the original  nature of the created becomes observable in physical form, physical
T4:3.12  form, physical form will surpass what it once was and become the new  nature of the created. There is no reason why the original nature of
T4:3.12  the new nature of the created. There is no reason why the original  nature of your being cannot become a being the nature of which is
T4:3.12  why the original 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
T4:3.12  form if you so choose it to be. There is a reason why the original  nature of your being cannot exist in a form unnatural to love. A form
T4:3.12  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  alone; not realizing that what lives does not have to die. That the  nature of form can change. That the nature of matter is one of
T4:3.13  does not have to die. That the nature of form can change. That the  nature of matter is one of change. That the nature, even of form,
T4:3.13  can change. That the nature of matter is one of change. That the  nature, even of form, once returned to its natural state of love, is
T4:4.2  of birth as creation and death as rest. You do not realize that your  nature, and the nature of your life, like that of all around you, is
T4:4.2  and death as rest. You do not realize that your nature, and the  nature of your life, like that of all around you, is governed by
T4:4.7 This idea of inheritance is a natural idea arising from the  nature of creation itself. It is an idea of continuity that is an

T4:4.18  a representation of Christ-consciousness, it will take on the  nature of Christ-consciousness, of which my life was the example
T4:5.11  ways that the body's eyes were unable to see, the glory of your true  nature. You are given the chance, just as you are being given the
T4:5.11  just as you are being given the chance now, to choose your true  nature with your free will.
T4:6.7  imagine and desire, in love, without changing the world and the  nature of the human being any more than have those who have come
T4:7.5  of death, needs to be removed from you despite the radical sounding  nature of life-everlasting. You cannot sustain Christ-consciousness
T4:7.5  while judgment remains in you. Why? Because it is not in the  nature of Christ, it is not in the nature of the Christ-Self to know
T4:7.5  Why? Because it is not in the nature of Christ, it is not in the  nature of the Christ-Self to know fear or judgment. What we are
T4:7.7  The conditions are perfect for optimal learning. This is the  nature of the universe. These conditions are perfect not only for
T4:8.5 Creation in form had a starting point. This is the  nature of everything that lives in form. It has a starting point from
T4:8.6  being of God, continued to express love through expression of its  nature, which was of God. What happened in the case of human beings,
T4:8.6  in the case of human beings, was a disconnect from your own true  nature, which in turn caused a disconnect in your ability to express
T4:8.7 The expression of your true  nature should never have been difficult, joyless, or fearful; but you
T4:8.8  from himself? What God could not disconnect from was the true  nature of the being of God, which is love. What God could not
T4:8.8  God, which is love. What God could not disconnect from was the true  nature of creation, which is love. What God, in effect had to do,
T4:8.8  effect had to do, what you in effect had to do in order to live in a  nature inconsistent with that from which God could not disconnect,
T4:8.8  was your will—or in other words, your mind. Just as it is your  nature to breathe oxygen, and not breathing oxygen is thus
T4:8.8  oxygen, and not breathing oxygen is thus inconsistent with your  nature, fearfulness is inconsistent with God. Judgment is
T4:8.9  the Earth to be flat—God saw and knew to be consistent with the  nature of man, even while the fear and struggle that this impatience
T4:8.11  as, as a parent, you come to see that you cannot fight a child's  nature, no matter how different it might be from your own—just as
T4:8.12  freedom of creation. Your rebellion against the constraints of your  nature in form thus became part of the pattern of creation because it
T4:8.16  done with learning, which is a true desire consistent with your true  nature and your purpose here. To learn everything there is to know
T4:9.3  steps to success. You go out in search of experiences of a mystical  nature. You have tried drugs or hypnosis, meditation or work with
T4:12.8 The simple and complete explanation of the non-intermediary  nature of this dialogue is that it exists in unity. It is given and
T4:12.8  for the separate state. All conditions that were intermediary in  nature during the time of learning, are, during the time of sharing,
T4:12.16  was the effect of the cause of learned wisdom. It became part of the  nature of the human experience by becoming so consistent within you
T4:12.16  the passing down of the human experience, to be integral to your  nature. Have you not always been told and seen examples of man
T4:12.31  form of these dialogues. Sharing in unity is automatic. It is the  nature of Christ-consciousness. Once you have adapted to this nature
T4:12.31  is the nature of Christ-consciousness. Once you have adapted to this  nature you will realize that what is communicated through our
D:1.16  and acting from that truth. Once the truth has been learned, the  nature of untruth remains only as an acceptance of insanity. What I
D:2.6  that you have now completed, learning that has revealed the true  nature of who you are, your inability to realize your completion and
D:2.16  you have attempted to externalize can help you to understand the  nature of patterns.
D:2.19  manage the world without. These systems were attempts to learn the  nature of who you are through external means—the means of learning
D:2.19  of who you are through external means—the means of learning the  nature of the world around you. Thus, in the example of the justice
D:2.19  system, you looked at the world and people around you and found the  nature of both to be hostile. From this faulty conclusion you
D:3.8  like to talk of in a new way. These are ideas that address your true  nature as a being existing in union, and this is why we call them
D:3.12  shared consciousness. Thus giving and receiving as one is now the  nature of the elevated Self of form, and what we work toward through
D:3.14  not occurring. Giving and receiving as one thus simply describes the  nature of the new, the nature of shared consciousness.
D:3.14  receiving as one thus simply describes the nature of the new, the  nature of shared consciousness.
D:3.20 As the system of  nature supports the life of many different trees, the trees are all
D:4.10 Let's look at each of these terms separately so that we see the  nature of existence in the same way and speak the same language while
D:5.1  acted upon it, distortions that created major departures from the  nature of creation.
D:6.26  Its existence is given as it was always given. But now the very  nature of its existence has changed. I say changed here because you
D:7.8  still exist in a particular time and place, but this is simply the  nature of one aspect of what you are. The nature of form is that it
D:7.8  but this 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:11.13  and sisters that I know who they are, will tell you something of the  nature of who you are if you but let this idea dwell within you and

D:Day12.6 When an obstacle of form, be it human or material in  nature, seems to present itself, all you must do is remind yourself
D:Day13.6  of love, the lovely complexity of form, the awesome majesty of  nature, all are visible within the One Self because of the
D:Day16.5  taking on form in the actions of others, in instances where acts of  nature or accidents seem to thwart plans, or in “situations” or
D:Day16.6 —was not of the physical world—it returns to its non-physical  nature within the spacious Self. Thus it was not escaped but
D:Day24.3  released. The choice is and is not yours. This power is a force of  nature that exists, not separately from you, but not separately from
D:Day24.3  nature that exists, not separately from you, but not separately from  nature either. It is triggered in any number of ways, only one of
D:Day24.3  meant that the Course is both a trigger of choice and a trigger of  nature. It was meant to convey the action of a catalyst. Now it is up
D:Day24.3  of a catalyst. Now it is up to you whether you allow your true  nature to be revealed.
D:Day24.4 To struggle against your  nature is what you have spent a lifetime doing. Stop. If you allow
D:Day24.4  doing. Stop. If you allow your potential to be released, your true  nature in all its wholeness will be revealed.

D:Day27.8  a trusted ability and, through practice, lose its dualistic seeming  nature and become as intrinsic to who you are as is breathing. In
D:Day27.8  who you are as is breathing. In this same way, the dualistic seeming  nature of all of life will be revealed to only seem to be so.
D:Day27.9  the biggest revelations yet. All that is now seen as dualistic in  nature can be experienced as different levels of experience of one

D:Day32.8  short. Man lives and has free will. Animals abide by the laws of  nature. God is still a concept.
D:Day32.15  If the natural world around you has revealed anything to you of the  nature of life and God, it has revealed to you the truth of
D:Day35.18  and creating anew, is different than being affected by the ongoing  nature of creation. Saying that you have been affected by creation,
D:Day37.22  appeal to God. Knowing what you are coming to know about the true  nature of God should thus not leave you feeling bereft of a God you

D:Day39.35 Only that which is by  nature without attributes can be one in being in union and

D:Day40.5 Love of itself has no  nature. It does not do anything. It just is, and its isness is what I
D:Day40.5  like the application of being to love, gives relationships their  nature, including your relationship with yourself.
D:Day40.6  at individuation and extension, an attempt consistent with the  nature of your being, failed only because you experienced separation
D:Day40.10  creations do once they are extended into form and time. This is the  nature of creation. Creation is about giving attributes to the
D:Day40.10  that she but tries to bring form to the formless. Why? Because the  nature of a being of love is to extend. The nature of a being of love

Tx:5.88  his thought system, the “threat” of fixation remained and could  never be eliminated by any living human being. Essentially, this was
Tx:5.89  creation, and the pull of this fixation is so strong that you will  never overcome it. The reason is perfectly clear. The fixation is on
Tx:6.11  I had learned I could not be abandoned. Peter swore he would  never deny me, but he did so three times. He did offer to defend me
Tx:6.20  thinking myself. If the Apostles had not felt guilty, they  never could have quoted me as saying, “I come not to bring peace but
Tx:6.34  your whole mind to God, because it has never left Him. If it has  never left Him, you need only perceive it as it is to be returned.
Tx:6.34  of the Atonement, then, is the recognition that the separation  never occurred. The ego cannot prevail against this because it is an
Tx:6.34  against this because it is an explicit statement that the ego  never occurred.
Tx:6.35  Holy Spirit tells you that even return is unnecessary because what  never happened cannot involve any problem. It does not follow,
Tx:6.40  no barrier at all to the communication of God. Thus, being is  never threatened. Your Godlike mind can never be defiled. The ego
Tx:6.40  of God. Thus, being is never threatened. Your Godlike mind can  never be defiled. The ego never was and never will be part of it,
Tx:6.40  never threatened. Your Godlike mind can never be defiled. The ego  never was and never will be part of it, but through the ego you can
Tx:6.40  Your Godlike mind can never be defiled. The ego never was and  never will be part of it, but through the ego you can hear and
Tx:6.41  so will you learn.” If that is true, and it is true indeed, you must  never forget that what you teach is teaching you. What you project
Tx:6.46  raised the first question that was ever asked, but one which it can  never answer. That question, “What are you?” was the beginning of
Tx:6.47 The ego has  never answered any questions since, although it has raised a great
Tx:6.47  raised a great many. The most inventive activities of the ego have  never done more than obscure the question, because you have the
Tx:6.51  certain. There is no doubt there because the first question was  never asked. Having finally been wholly answered, it has never
Tx:6.51  was never asked. Having finally been wholly answered, it has  never been. Being alone lives in the Kingdom, where everything lives
Tx:6.53  You have a model to follow who will strengthen your command and  never detract from it in any way. You therefore retain the central
Tx:6.66  Holy Spirit communicates only what each one can give to all. He  never takes anything back, because He wants you to keep it.
Tx:7.8  it or Who He is. God does not reveal this to you, because it was  never hidden. His light was never obscured, because it is His Will to
Tx:7.8  not reveal this to you, because it was never hidden. His light was  never obscured, because it is His Will to share it. How can what is
Tx:7.48  the Holy Spirit in him. It is only the Holy Spirit in him that  never changes His Mind. He himself must think he can, or he would
Tx:7.49  better, an idol which you may worship out of fear but which you will  never love. The other shows you only truth, which you will love,
Tx:7.61  It is necessary against beliefs which are not true and would  never have been called upon by the Holy Spirit if you had not
Tx:7.78 Attack could  never promote attack unless you perceived it as a means of depriving
Tx:7.87  belief. The ego is therefore a confusion in identification which  never had a consistent model and never developed consistently. It is
Tx:7.87  a confusion in identification which never had a consistent model and  never developed consistently. It is the distorted product of the
Tx:7.97 Be confident that you have  never lost your identity and the extensions which maintain it in
Tx:8.9  to whom a Son of God should turn to find himself? The ego has  never given you a sensible answer to anything. Simply on the
Tx:8.19  treat yourself. As you think of him, you will think of yourself.  Never forget this, for in him you will find yourself or lose sight of
Tx:8.21  or released according to your decision, and so will you.  Never forget your responsibility to him, because it is your
Tx:8.41  can obscure the one for which God's Voice speaks in all of us.  Never accord the ego the power to interfere with the journey because
Tx:8.51  you are forever. It is a journey without distance to a goal that has  never changed. Truth can only be experienced. It cannot be
Tx:8.70  can separate and reassemble in different constellations. Knowledge  never changes, so its constellation is permanent. The only areas in
Tx:8.94  have. We have emphasized many times that the Holy Spirit will  never call upon you to sacrifice anything. But if you ask the
Tx:8.98  not want, you are asking for what cannot be given, because it was  never created. It was never created, because it was never your will
Tx:8.98  for what cannot be given, because it was never created. It was  never created, because it was never your will for you.
Tx:8.98  because it was never created. It was never created, because it was  never your will for you.
Tx:8.101  God could not will that happiness depended on what you could  never have.
Tx:8.103  want. How real can this devotion be? If you do not want it, it was  never created. If it was never created, it is nothing. Can you
Tx:8.103  be? If you do not want it, it was never created. If it was  never created, it is nothing. Can you really devote yourself to
Tx:8.110 If you would know your prayers are answered,  never doubt a Son of God. Do not question him and do not confound
Tx:8.117  Never forget, then, that you have set the value on what you receive
Tx:9.37  find your creations, because he created them with you. You will  never know that you are co-creator with God until you learn that your

Tx:9.40  of its uncertainty. And it can never go beyond it, because it can  never be certain.
Tx:9.41  of you really is. He is not deceived by anything you do, because He  never forgets what you are. The ego is deceived by everything you
Tx:9.63  and refuse to change your mind about yourself. God will  never decide against you, or He would be deciding against Himself.
Tx:9.89  endowing them with chaos and accepting it of them. All this has  never been. Nothing but the laws of God has ever operated, and
Tx:9.92  are obscured. Yet God has kept the spark alive so that the rays can  never be completely forgotten. If you but see the little spark, you
Tx:9.93  of the god of sickness are strange and very demanding. Joy is  never permitted, for depression is the sign of allegiance to him.
Tx:9.100  of Him. When you acknowledge Him, you will know that He has  never ceased to acknowledge you and that in His acknowledgment of
Tx:9.102  were insane. Would you have Him share your insanity? God will  never cease to love His Son, and His Son will never cease to love
Tx:9.102  insanity? God will never cease to love His Son, and His Son will  never cease to love Him. That was the condition of His Son's
Tx:10.2  It sounds insane when it is stated with perfect honesty, but the ego  never looks upon what it does with perfect honesty. Yet that is its
Tx:10.15  only because He speaks for you. He is the Voice for God, but  never forget that God did not will to be alone. He shares His Will
Tx:10.21 You will  never rest until you know your function and fulfill it, for only
Tx:10.23  but you cannot. You do not know how, for if you did you could  never have grown weary. Unless you have hurt yourselves, you could
Tx:10.23  never have grown weary. Unless you have hurt yourselves, you could  never suffer in any way, for that is not God's Will for His Son.
Tx:10.27  to be glorious and gave him the light that shines in him. You will  never lose your way, for God leads you. When you wander, you but
Tx:10.28  is not in them. Do not be deceived by the dark comforters, and  never let them enter the Mind of God's Son, for they have no place in
Tx:10.31  Never forget that the Sonship is your salvation, for the Sonship is
Tx:10.32  has denied him? God's laws hold only for your protection, and they  never hold in vain. What you experience when you deny your Father is
Tx:10.53  characteristically contradictory approach of the ego to everything.  Never forget that the ego believes that power, understanding, and
Tx:10.71 The ego sees some good but  never only good. That is why its perceptions are so variable. It
Tx:11.26  poverty as yours. If you had not invested as they had, it would  never occur to you to overlook their need.
Tx:11.28  “what” and the “how” of salvation, and this is the only answer.  Never lose sight of this, and never allow yourself to believe even
Tx:11.28  and this is the only answer. Never lose sight of this, and  never allow yourself to believe even for an instant that there is
Tx:11.36  that love is dangerous, and this is always its central teaching. It  never puts it this way; on the contrary, everyone who believes that
Tx:11.39  and the goal He sets before you He will give you. For He will  never deceive God's Son, whom He loves with the love of the Father.
Tx:11.45 You will  never realize the utter uselessness of attack except by recognizing
Tx:11.45  you are always the first point of your attack, and if this has  never been, it has no consequences.
Tx:11.54  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 remind
Tx:11.54  worth. For the Father never ceases to remind Him of His Son, and He  never ceases to remind His Son of the Father. God is in your memory
Tx:11.58  And then the real world will spring to your sight, for Christ has  never slept. He is waiting to be seen, for He has never lost sight of
Tx:11.58  for Christ has never slept. He is waiting to be seen, for He has  never lost sight of you. He looks quietly on the real world, which
Tx:11.74  of death as God knows you are deserving of life. The death penalty  never leaves the ego's mind, for that is what it always reserves for
Tx:11.76  given it to you? When you learn to make me manifest, you will  never see death. For you will have looked upon the deathless in
Tx:11.82 Everything you made has  never been and is invisible because the Holy Spirit does not see it.
Tx:11.83  you find? The unreal world is a thing of despair, for it can  never be. And you who share God's Being with Him could never be
Tx:11.83  for it can never be. And you who share God's Being with Him could  never be content without reality. What God did not give you has no
Tx:11.84  for only perception is capable of error, and perception has  never been. Being corrected, it gives place to knowledge, which is
Tx:11.84  the only reality. The Atonement is but the way back to what was  never lost. Your Father could not cease to love His Son.
Tx:11.88  he has given only love. He cannot be condemned because he has  never condemned. The Atonement is the final lesson he need learn, for
Tx:11.88  is the final lesson he need learn, for it teaches him that,  never having sinned, he has no need of salvation.
Tx:11.90  it dear. For the blamelessness of Christ is the proof that the ego  never was and can never be. Without guilt the ego has no life, and
Tx:11.90  blamelessness of Christ is the proof that the ego never was and can  never be. Without guilt the ego has no life, and God's Son is
Tx:11.92  hurt himself. The retaliation he fears and which he sees will  never touch him, for although he believes in it, the Holy Spirit
Tx:11.97  for by accepting your guiltlessness, you learn that the past has  never been, and so the future is needless. The future, in time, is
Tx:11.97  way of reminding you of His Son and what he is in truth. For God has  never condemned His Son, and being guiltless, he is eternal.
Tx:11.99  Spirit dispels it simply through the calm recognition that it has  never been. As He looks upon the guiltless Son of God, he knows
Tx:12.9  And you will see that you were redeemed with him and have  never been separated from him. In this understanding lies your
Tx:12.39  you have offered yourself is not true, but His offering to you has  never changed. You who know not what you do can learn what insanity
Tx:12.53  will return your thanks in His clear answer to your call. For it can  never be that His Son called upon Him and remained unanswered. His
Tx:12.57  with his Father, he has no past apart from Him. So he has  never ceased to be his Father's witness and his own. Although he
Tx:12.57  that he can call unto himself the witnesses that teach him that he  never slept.
Tx:12.61  it has disappointed you since time began. The homes you built have  never sheltered you. The roads you made have led you nowhere, and no
Tx:12.65  love surrounds him without end or flaw. Disturbance of his peace can  never be. In perfect sanity he looks on love, for it is all about him
Tx:12.71  them. What comes to you of Him comes safely, for He will ensure it  never can become a dark spot, hidden in your mind and kept to hurt
Tx:13.2  yours, for in you is all knowledge. Perception at its loftiest is  never complete. Even the perception of the Holy Spirit, as perfect as
Tx:13.10  know, and as they reach the gates of Heaven, God will open them. For  never would He leave His own beloved Son outside them and beyond
Tx:13.25  where you would always find Atonement. The end of guilt will  never come as long as you believe there is a reason for it. For you
Tx:13.34  the Kingdom, guilt melts away and, transformed into kindness, will  never more be what it was. Every reaction that you experience will be
Tx:13.34  Father. See only praise of Him in what He has created, for He will  never cease His praise of you. United in this praise, we stand
Tx:13.64  about learning. This is so essential to learning that it should  never be forgotten. The guiltless learner learns so easily because
Tx:13.75 It will  never happen that you will have to make decisions for yourself. You
Tx:13.75  He Who gives you everything will simply offer it to you? He will  never ask what you have done to make you worthy of the gift of God.
Tx:13.79  out of insanity. Madness may be your choice, but not your reality.  Never forget the love of God, Who has remembered you. For it is
Tx:13.84 He leadeth me and knows the way, which I know not. Yet He will  never keep from me what He would have me learn. And so I trust Him to
Tx:14.4  exist, for what is not in communication with the Mind of God has  never been. Communication with God is life. Nothing without it is
Tx:14.8  Bring innocence to light in answer to the call of the Atonement.  Never allow purity to remain hidden, but shine away the heavy veils
Tx:14.49  seems to think. The result is a weaving, changing pattern which  never rests and is never still. It shifts unceasingly across the
Tx:14.49  The result is a weaving, changing pattern which never rests and is  never still. It shifts unceasingly across the mirror of your mind,
Tx:14.62  exchange each one for the bright lesson He has learned for you.  Never believe that any lesson you have learned apart from Him means
Tx:14.69  to light, having accepted them instead of you and recognized they  never were. There are no dark lessons He has not already lightened
Tx:14.71  have always created like your Father. The miracle of creation has  never ceased, having the holy stamp of immortality upon it. This is
Tx:14.72  test of perfect peace, for peace and understanding go together and  never can be found alone. Each brings the other with it, for it is
Tx:14.74  of peace will never abandon you. You can desert Him, but He will  never reciprocate, for His faith in you is His understanding. It is
Tx:15.4  seen this strange paradox in the ego's thought system before, but  never so clearly as here. For the ego must seem to keep fear from
Tx:15.13 You will  never give this holy instant to the Holy Spirit on behalf of your
Tx:15.15  what time is for. Holiness lies not in time but in eternity. There  never was an instant in which God's Son could lose his purity. His
Tx:15.21  of the power of God in you. Use it but for one instant, and you will  never deny it again. Who can deny the Presence of what the universe
Tx:15.22  but be sure you understand what littleness is and why you could  never be content with it. Littleness is the offering you gave
Tx:15.50  both. Yet you had judged against yourself first, or you would  never have imagined that you needed them as they were not. Unless you
Tx:15.73  wounding them, perhaps in little ways, perhaps “unconsciously,” yet  never without demand of sacrifice. The fury of those joined at the
Tx:15.80  seek in them what you have thrown away. And through them you will  never learn the value of what you have cast aside but what you still
Tx:15.81 Relate only with what will never leave you and what you can  never leave. The loneliness of God's Son is the loneliness of his
Tx:15.87  which it tries to turn its purpose into accomplishment. This will  never be accomplished. Yet you have surely recognized that the ego,
Tx:15.97  yours. While it is obvious that the ego does demand payment, it  never seems to be demanding it of you. For you are unwilling to
Tx:15.97  treacherous only to those who think they are its host. The ego will  never let you perceive this, since this recognition would make it
Tx:16.2  in certain people. These it selects out and joins with. And it  never joins except to strengthen itself. [Having identified with
Tx:16.5  know. You are not sure that He will do His part because you have  never yet done yours completely. You will not know how to respond
Tx:16.6  He the Teacher. Do not confuse your role with His, for this will  never bring peace to anyone. Offer your empathy to Him, for it is
Tx:16.16  while. The Host of God has called to you, and you have heard.  Never again will you be wholly willing not to listen.
Tx:16.19  and will give you everything that makes for happiness. You have  never given any problem to the Holy Spirit He has not solved for you,
Tx:16.19  Spirit He has not solved for you, nor will you ever do so. You have  never tried to solve anything yourself and been successful. Is it not
Tx:16.23  is equally impossible that conviction be outside of you. You could  never have taught freedom unless you did believe in it. And it must

Tx:16.35  you perceive hatred within and are afraid of it. Yet peace will  never come from the illusion of love, but only from its reality.
Tx:16.37  the acceptance of the oneness of creation, without which you could  never be complete. No specialness can offer you what God has given
Tx:16.40  wholly without fear. Whom God remembers must be whole. And God has  never forgotten what makes Him whole. In your completion lies the
Tx:16.46  believe this specialness is not hell, but Heaven. For the ego would  never have you see that separation can only be loss, being the one
Tx:16.54  of content. There is no meaning in the form, and there will  never be. The special relationship must be recognized for what it is
Tx:16.74  of love is not profoundly shaken. Yet the one thing which the ego  never allows to reach awareness is that the special relationship is
Tx:17.8  and beyond all ugliness into beauty that will enchant you and will  never cease to cause you wonderment at its perfection.
Tx:17.25  or illusion, freedom or slavery—it is all the same. For you can  never choose except between God and the ego. Thought systems are
Tx:17.45  the unholy relationship has accepted the goal of holiness, it can  never again be what it was.
Tx:17.66  that. The error does not matter. Faithlessness brought to faith will  never interfere with truth. But faithlessness used against truth
Tx:17.71  you were. Yet you are as innocent of what you were as he is. What  never was is causeless and is not there to interfere with truth.
Tx:18.2 The Holy Spirit  never uses substitutes. Where the ego perceives one person as a
Tx:18.8  calm within, where in holy stillness dwells the living God you  never left and Who never left you. The Holy Spirit takes you gently
Tx:18.8  where in holy stillness dwells the living God you never left and Who  never left you. The Holy Spirit takes you gently by the hand and
Tx:18.10  are so firmly joined in truth that only God is there. And He would  never accept something else instead of you. He loves you both,
Tx:18.23  with the Will of God. And what this will would have accomplished has  never not been done.
Tx:18.34 Humility will  never ask that you remain content with littleness. But it does
Tx:18.41 Prepare you not for the undoing of what  never was. If you already understood the difference between truth and
Tx:18.42  Never approach the holy instant after you have tried to remove all
Tx:18.42  remove all fear and hatred from your mind. That is its function.  Never attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the Holy
Tx:18.46  this instant for the holy one which you would rather have. He will  never fail in this. But forget not that your relationship is one, and
Tx:18.46  of you to experience fear alone or to attempt to deal with it alone.  Never believe that this is necessary or even possible. Yet just as
Tx:18.51  can make fantasies and direct the body to act them out. Yet it is  never what the body does that seems to satisfy. Unless the mind
Tx:18.64  really trying to make still more, but there is one thing you have  never done—not for one instant have you utterly forgotten the body.
Tx:18.64  of Atonement happens. Afterwards, you will see the body again, but  never quite the same. And every instant that you spend without
Tx:18.65  the body exist at all. It is always remembered or anticipated, but  never experienced just now. Only its past and future make it seem
Tx:18.65  and future make it seem real. Time controls it entirely, for sin is  never present. In any single instant, the attraction of guilt would
Tx:18.88  must always depend on keeping it not seen. The body's eyes will  never look on it. Yet they will see what it dictates.
Tx:18.96  that is what needs to be undone. Love is not learned because there  never was a time in which you knew it not. Learning is useless in the
Tx:19.3  acting accordingly; seeing what is not there, hearing what truth has  never said, and behaving insanely, being imprisoned by insanity.
Tx:19.8  is and where it must be healed. The result of an idea is  never separate from its source. The idea of separation produced the
Tx:19.40  its tranquil dwelling-place from which it gently reaches out but  never leaving you. If you would make it homeless, how can it abide
Tx:19.48  See but how easily this little wisp is lifted up and carried away,  never to return, and part with it in gladness, not regret. For it is
Tx:19.49 The attraction of guilt produces fear of love, for love would  never look on guilt at all. It is the nature of love to look upon
Tx:19.65  of your forgiveness, he will remember who he is and forget what  never was. I ask for your forgiveness, for if you are guilty, so must
Tx:19.70  that lies in it will come with it, and what you think you are can  never be apart from it. The body is the great seeming betrayer of
Tx:19.92  is but the solemn vow, the promise made in secret to the ego  never to lift this veil, not to approach it nor even to suspect that
Tx:19.92  the veil forever blotted out and unremembered. Here is your promise  never to allow union to call you out of separation; the great amnesia
Tx:19.93  friends. For in your secret alliance with them, you have agreed  never to let the fear of God be lifted so you could look upon the
Tx:19.95 And now you stand in terror before what you swore  never to look upon. Your eyes look down, remembering your promise to
Tx:20.40  is of those who do not see. Vision or judgment is your choice, but  never both of these.
Tx:20.42 You look upon each holy instant as a different point in time. It  never changes. All that it ever held or will ever hold is here right
Tx:20.47 Idols accept, but  never make return. They can be loved, but cannot love. They do not
Tx:20.49  enter. The Holy Spirit does not build His temples where love can  never be. Would He Who sees the face of Christ choose as His home the
Tx:20.63  Here are illusions and reality kept separated. Here are illusions  never brought to truth and always hidden from it. And here in
Tx:20.67  which you closed off by valuing the “something else,” and what was  never lost will quietly return. It has been saved for you. Vision
Tx:20.72  will stand condemned before you. All that could save you, you will  never see. Your holy relationship, the source of your salvation, will
Tx:20.74  purpose is no longer held, they disappear. Therefore, the question  never is whether you want them, but always, do you want the purpose
Tx:20.77  life-giving water running happily beside them in dancing brooks that  never waste away, who need persuade you to accept the gift of vision?
Tx:20.77  just on this—you can behold the holiness God gave His Son. And  never need you think that there is something else for you to see.
Tx:21.3  Never forget the world the sightless “see” must be imagined, for what
Tx:21.18  now you see it. Give it away, and everything you see goes with it.  Never was so much given for so little. In the holy instant is this
Tx:21.28  you are independent of the Source by which you were created and have  never left.
Tx:21.49  in which awareness of reality is possible or those where it could  never be.
Tx:21.50  you made directs your destiny. For this will be your faith. But  never believe because it is your faith it makes reality.
Tx:21.54 God's plan is simple— never circular and never self-defeating. He has no Thoughts except
Tx:21.54 God's plan is simple—never circular and  never self-defeating. He has no Thoughts except the Self-extending,
Tx:21.56  in insanity, for it depends entirely on reason's absence. The ego  never uses it because it does not realize that it exists. The
Tx:21.64  sin instead of healing, you would condemn the Son of God to what can  never be corrected. You tell him by your choice that he is damned—
Tx:21.73  enemy. Yes, it can overrun the world and seek an enemy. But it can  never find what is not there. Yes, it can dream it found an enemy,
Tx:21.73  even as it attacks, so that it runs at once to find another and  never comes to rest in victory. And as it runs, it turns against
Tx:21.88  is a request, an asking for, and made by one whom God Himself will  never fail to answer. God has already given him all that he really
Tx:21.90  now, for time is powerless because of your desire for what will  never change. For you have asked that nothing stand between the
Tx:22.1  look on sin apart. No two can look on sin together, for they could  never see it in the same place and time. Sin is a strictly individual
Tx:22.7  no messages at all you understand. For you have listened to what can  never communicate at all. Think, then, what happened. Denying what
Tx:22.12  he knows because you knew it. He could not come to anyone but you,  never to “something else.” Where Christ has entered, no one is alone,
Tx:22.12  to “something else.” Where Christ has entered, no one is alone, for  never could He find a home in separate ones. Yet must He be reborn
Tx:22.63  if only the different can attack. Either could be maintained, but  never both. The only question to be answered to decide which must be

Tx:23.11  are a body, you will believe you have forgotten it. Yet truth can  never be forgotten by itself, and you have not forgotten what you
Tx:23.16  Him. Over His home the Holy Spirit watches, sure that its peace can  never be disturbed.
Tx:23.19 The “laws” of chaos can be brought to light, though  never understood. Chaotic laws are hardly meaningful and therefore
Tx:23.23  between the Father and the Son. Now it appears that they can  never be one again. For one must always be condemned and by the
Tx:23.27  loss becomes your gain, and thus it fails to recognize that you can  never take away save from yourself. Yet all the other laws must
Tx:23.29  most treacherous and cunning enemy? It must be what you want but  never found. And now you “understand” the reason why you found it
Tx:23.31  Never is your possession made complete. And never will your brother
Tx:23.31 Never is your possession made complete. And  never will your brother cease his attack on you for what you stole.
Tx:23.36  them for the form they take and do not recognize the content. It  never changes. Can you paint rosy lips upon a skeleton, dress it in
Tx:23.44  of it? It can be kept shining before your vision, forever clear and  never out of sight if you defend it not.
Tx:23.48  what it creates? And can it offer its creations all that it is and  never suffer loss?
Tx:23.51  clash of forms is meaningless. And it is over when you realize it  never was begun. How can a battle be perceived as nothingness when
Tx:23.55 Those with the strength of God in their awareness could  never think of battle. What could they gain but loss of their
Tx:24.4 Beliefs will  never openly attack each other, because conflicting outcomes are
Tx:24.4  to war in secret, where the results of conflict are kept unknown and  never brought to reason to be considered sensible or not. And many
Tx:24.8  in specialness; his friend in a shared purpose. Specialness can  never share, for it depends on goals that you alone can reach. And he
Tx:24.8  share, for it depends on goals that you alone can reach. And he must  never reach them, or your goal is jeopardized. Can love have meaning
Tx:24.11  wage against him. Here must he be your enemy and not your friend.  Never can there be peace among the different. He is your friend
Tx:24.16 You can defend your specialness, but  never will you hear the Voice for God beside it. They speak a
Tx:24.17  place. This is the only “cost” of truth: you will no longer see what  never was, nor hear what makes no sound. Is it a sacrifice to give up
Tx:24.22  both might share the universe with Him Who chose that love could  never be divided and kept separate from what it is and must forever
Tx:24.29  that is what it is—a secret vow that what God wants for you will  never be and that you will oppose His Will forever. Nor is it
Tx:24.47  completion is His Own. He Who willed not to be without His Son could  never will that you be brotherless. And would He give a brother unto
Tx:24.49  sure that God is knowable and will be known to you. For He could  never leave His own creation. And the sign that this is so lies in
Tx:24.56  is given you to take from him that both may end a journey that has  never been begun and needs no end. What never was is not a part of
Tx:24.56  may end a journey that has never been begun and needs no end. What  never was is not a part of you. Yet you will think it is until you
Tx:24.58  you a part of Him to save from pain and give you happiness. And  never doubt but that your specialness will disappear before the Will
Tx:24.59  fully justified, you have pursued this goal with vigilance you  never thought to yield and effort that you never thought to cease.
Tx:24.59  goal with vigilance you never thought to yield and effort that you  never thought to cease. And all this grim determination was for this
Tx:25.6  have you be. And always is it faithful to your purpose from which it  never separates nor gives the slightest witness unto anything the
Tx:25.6  a part of what it is your purpose to behold, for means and end are  never separate. And thus you learn what seems to have a life apart
Tx:25.8  as all your brothers join as one in truth. Christ and His Father  never have been separate, and Christ abides within your understanding
Tx:25.10  as one is meaningless. It is apparent that a mind so split could  never be the teacher of a Oneness which unites all things within
Tx:25.14  on grounds that it will suddenly succeed and bring what it has  never brought before?
Tx:25.21  from his Father. You need no forgiveness, for the wholly pure have  never sinned. Give then what He has given you that you may see His
Tx:25.22  darkness into light be yours to share; that you may see as one what  never has been separate nor apart from all God's love as given
Tx:25.27  elsewhere from their home, as if they lit a place where they could  never be, and you agree, then must the Maker of the world correct
Tx:25.30  it must have been an error, not a sin. For what it claimed could  never be has been. Sin is attacked by punishment and so preserved.
Tx:25.31 The Son of God could  never sin, but he can wish for what would hurt him. And he has
Tx:25.35  And from you will the rest you found extend, so that your peace can  never fall away and leave you homeless. Those who offer peace to
Tx:25.68  the chill of fear comes over them when they are told that they have  never sinned. Their world depends on sin's stability. And they
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
Tx:26.2  built a wall so seeming solid that it looks as if what is inside can  never reach without, and what is out can never reach and join with
Tx:26.2  as if what is inside can never reach without, and what is out can  never reach and join with what is locked away within the wall. Each
Tx:26.8  he make, and only one was given him by One Who knows His gifts can  never suffer sacrifice and loss. God's justice rests in gentleness
Tx:26.22  short of Heaven, for only perception needs salvation. Heaven was  never lost and so cannot be saved. Yet who can make a choice between
Tx:26.24  as such. Where all reality has been withdrawn from what was  never true, can it be hard to give it up and choose what must be
Tx:26.30  you can take while time remains and choice is meaningful. For  never will another road be made except the way to Heaven. You but
Tx:26.40  a present light is dimly recognized. Once it is seen, this light can  never be forgotten. It must draw you from the past into the present,
Tx:26.59  beyond you to control or to prevent. What is thus kept apart can  never join.
Tx:26.60  source is to invite illusions to be true, without success. For  never will success be possible in trying to deceive the Son of God.
Tx:26.61  effects to other forms. And this is not release. God's Son could  never be content with less than full salvation and escape from guilt.
Tx:26.77  joined! However much you wish he be condemned, God is in him. And  never will you know He is in you as well, while you attack His chosen
Tx:26.80  tens of thousands? When They come, time's purpose is fulfilled. What  never was passes to nothingness when They have come. What hatred
Tx:26.84  by Whom it was created. Where He dwells, His Son dwells with Him,  never separate. And They give thanks that They are welcome made at
Tx:27.1  Who can combine the wholly incompatible and make a unity of what can  never join? Walk you the gentle way, and you will fear no evil and no
Tx:27.4  you send lest he forget the injuries he gave from which you swear he  never will escape. This sick and sorry picture you accept, if only
Tx:27.5  Yet this one has not been used for purpose of attack and therefore  never suffered pain at all. It witnesses to the eternal truth that
Tx:27.6  the innocence that he beholds in you. Here is the proof that he has  never sinned—that nothing which his madness bid him do was ever
Tx:27.9  whose consequences still are there to see, so that the cause can  never be denied.
Tx:27.10  see yourself a picture of the proof that what your function is can  never be! The Holy Spirit's picture changes not the body into
Tx:27.17 Your body can be means to teach that it has  never suffered pain because of him. And in its healing can it offer
Tx:27.17  what he did not do. And so is he convinced his innocence was  never lost and healed along with you.
Tx:27.18 Thus does the miracle undo all things the world attests can  never be undone. And hopelessness and death must disappear before
Tx:27.26  be a part of you while this perception lasts. What is condemned can  never be returned to its accuser, who hated it and hates it still.
Tx:27.31  The picture of your brother that you see is wholly absent and has  never been. Let then the empty space it occupies be recognized as
Tx:27.35  is no choice of function anywhere. The choice you fear to lose you  never had. Yet only this appears to interfere with power unlimited
Tx:27.51  manner in accord with laws which have been properly perceived but  never violated. Fear you not the way that you perceive them. You are
Tx:27.71 An honest choice could  never be perceived as one in which the choice is split between a tiny
Tx:27.79  of every dream the world has ever had. The “hero” of this dream will  never change nor will its purpose. Though the dream itself takes many
Tx:27.81  there really was a time when he knew nothing of a body and could  never have conceived this world as real. He would have seen at once
Tx:27.84  device to keep your innocence by pushing guilt outside yourself but  never letting go! It is not easy to perceive the jest when all around
Tx:28.8  forget. It is not past because He let It not be unremembered. It has  never changed because there never was a time in which He did not keep
Tx:28.8  He let It not be unremembered. It has never changed because there  never was a time in which He did not keep It safely in your mind. Its
Tx:28.8  because you thought that you remembered not their Cause. Yet was It  never absent from your mind, for it was not your Father's Will that
Tx:28.9 What you remember  never was. It came from causelessness which you confused with cause.
Tx:28.9  forever present, perfectly untouched by time and interference— never changed from what It is. And you are Its effects, as
Tx:28.10  a judgment on His Son. You would deny Him His effects, yet have they  never been denied. There was no time in which His Son could be
Tx:28.14  at all. He has done nothing. And in seeing this, he understands he  never had a need for doing anything and never did. His Cause is Its
Tx:28.14  this, he understands he never had a need for doing anything and  never did. His Cause is Its effects. There never was a cause beside
Tx:28.14  for doing anything and never did. His Cause is Its effects. There  never was a cause beside It that could generate a different past or
Tx:28.15  forever on a shore where he can glimpse another shore which he can  never reach. His Father wills that he be lifted up and gently carried
Tx:28.21  if it has no cause, it has no purpose. You may cause a dream, but  never will you give it real effects. For that would change its cause,
Tx:28.22  without the consequences which would make it cause. And so it  never was.
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. Yet it holds the
Tx:28.35  dream of healing in forgiveness lies and gently shows you that you  never sinned. The miracle would leave no proof of guilt to bring you
Tx:28.35  miracle would leave no proof of guilt to bring you witness to what  never was. And in your storehouse it will make a place of welcome for
Tx:28.55  you give because it has no feeling. It behaves in ways you want but  never makes the choice. It is not born and does not die. It can but
Tx:28.59  of Me and I of you forever. Be you perfect as Myself, for you can  never be apart from Me.” His Son remembers not that he replied “I
Tx:28.64 But  never you alone. This world is but the dream that you can be alone
Tx:29.2  For love is treacherous to those who fear, since fear and hate can  never be apart. No one who hates but is afraid of love and therefore
Tx:29.26  without, or both. Or it can be disguised in pleasant form. But  never is it absent from the dream, for fear is the material of dreams
Tx:29.39  Where time has set an end is not where the eternal is. God's Son can  never change by what men made of him. He will be as he was and as he
Tx:29.43  excepting there. Each idol that you worship when God calls will  never answer in His place. There is no other answer you can
Tx:29.52  idol? Do you think you know? For idols are unrecognized as such and  never seen for what they really are. That is the only power which
Tx:29.52  he may be replaced, no matter what their form. And it is this which  never is perceived and recognized. Be it a body or a thing, a place,
Tx:29.60  tells you idols have no purpose here. For more than Heaven can you  never have. If Heaven is within, why would you seek for idols which
Tx:29.60  Himself. No idol can establish you as more than God. But you will  never be content with being less.
Tx:29.68  Heaven can be heard, not with the ears, but with the holiness which  never left the altar which abides forever deep within the Son of God.
Tx:29.68  the Son of God. And when he hears this song again, he knows he  never heard it not. And where is time, when dreams of judgment have
Tx:30.34  what he has chosen for himself? God but ensured that you would  never lose your will when He gave you His perfect answer. Hear it now
Tx:30.39  within the idol, thus reducing it to a specific form. Yet this could  never be your will because what shares in all creation cannot be
Tx:30.41 It  never is the idol that you want. But what you think it offers you,
Tx:30.47  of its rest in its eternal home, the Thought God holds of you has  never left the mind of its Creator Whom it knows, as its Creator
Tx:30.48  Mind of God, but from your own. The star shines still; the sky has  never changed. But you, the holy Son of God Himself, are unaware of
Tx:30.49  defensiveness entirely and rush to its embrace. The truth could  never be attacked. And this you knew when you made idols. They were
Tx:30.49  made that this might be forgotten. You attack but false ideas and  never truthful ones. All idols are the false ideas you made to fill
Tx:30.51  forms. And each one seems to break the rules you set for it. It  never was the thing you thought. It must appear to break your rules
Tx:30.52  are but toys, my children. Do not grieve for them. Their dancing  never brought you joy. But neither were they things to frighten you
Tx:30.55  you are asked to let yourself be free of all the dreams of what you  never were and seek no more to substitute the strength of idle wishes
Tx:30.62  be given back to him. The gap between your brother and yourself was  never there. And what the Son of God knew in creation, he must know
Tx:30.65  wanted in your hearts. Give up the world! But not to sacrifice. You  never wanted it. What happiness have you sought here that did not
Tx:30.67 There  never was a time an idol brought you anything except the “gift” of
Tx:30.84  make allowance for stability of meaning anywhere. Fear is a judgment  never justified. Its presence has no meaning but to show you wrote a
Tx:31.1 How simple is salvation! All it says is what was  never true is not true now and never will be. The impossible has not
Tx:31.1  is salvation! All it says is what was never true is not true now and  never will be. The impossible has not occurred and can have no
Tx:31.8  you in soft appeal to be your friend and let it join with you. And  never does a call remain unheard, misunderstood, nor left unanswered
Tx:31.22  of care. There will be no assault upon your wish to hear a call that  never has been made. Nothing will hurt you in this holy place to
Tx:31.22  but come away without the thoughts you did not want and that were  never true.
Tx:31.26  of happiness is shortened by a span of time you cannot realize. You  never hate your brother for his sins, but only for your own.
Tx:31.27  what you are? If you did not believe that you deserved attack, it  never would occur to you to give attack to anyone at all. Why
Tx:31.29  causes change. And so the body, where no learning can occur, could  never change unless the mind preferred the body change in its
Tx:31.31  you to change what you believe. The body will but follow. It can  never lead you where you would not be. It does not guard your sleep
Tx:31.41  from what you are will lead you to confusion and despair. Yet has He  never left His Thoughts to die, without their Source forever in
Tx:31.45  world accords to those who would be generous and good. This aspect  never makes the first attack. But every day a hundred little things
Tx:31.50  of yourself, that you will choose to follow this world's laws and  never seek to go beyond its roads nor realize the way you see
Tx:31.62  are, as flesh or Spirit in your own belief. If you choose flesh, you  never will escape the body as your own reality, for you have chosen
Tx:31.64  salvation will undo and let you see another world your eyes could  never find. Be not concerned how this could ever be. You do not
Tx:31.67  think you are in earth or Heaven. What your Father wills for you can  never change. The truth in you remains as radiant as a star, as pure
Tx:31.70  it is thus you see him more than just a body, for the good is  never what the body seems to be. The actions of the body are
Tx:31.71  For both are concepts of yourself which can be interchanged, but  never jointly held. The contrast is far greater than you think, for
Tx:31.86  in you. And what you choose is what you think is real. Simply by  never using weakness to direct your actions, you have given it no
Tx:31.88  can not prevail against what God Himself would have you be. Be  never fearful of temptation then, but see it as it is—another
Tx:31.91  all your weakness with the strength that comes from God and that can  never fail. And thus are miracles as natural as fear and agony
W1:7.6 It is the reason why you are  never upset for the reason you think.
W1:16.3 In addition to  never being idle, salvation requires that you recognize that every
W1:18.1  in learning that the thoughts which give rise to what you see are  never neutral or unimportant. It also emphasizes the idea that minds
W1:19.1  and its results are really simultaneous, for cause and effect are  never separate.
W1:30.1  up before you, and you will look upon it and see in it what you have  never seen before. Nor will what you saw before be even faintly
W1:41.3 You can  never be deprived of your perfect holiness because its Source goes
W1:41.3  holiness because its Source goes with you wherever you go. You can  never suffer because the Source of all joy goes with you wherever you
W1:41.3  because the Source of all joy goes with you wherever you go. You can  never be alone because the Source of all life goes with you wherever
W1:41.7  in connection with this kind of practice as we go along. But it will  never fail completely, and instant success is possible.
W1:43.2  and does not exist. Yet in salvation, which is the undoing of what  never was, perception has a mighty purpose. Made by the Son of God
W1:46.1 God does not forgive because He has  never condemned. And there must be condemnation before forgiveness is
W1:51.6 [5] I am  never upset for the reason I think. I am never upset for the reason
W1:51.6 [5] I am never upset for the reason I think. I am  never upset for the reason I think because I am constantly trying to
W1:52.2 [6] I am upset because I see what is not there. Reality is  never frightening. It is impossible that it could upset me. Reality
W1:60.2  the Love in which I forgive. God does not forgive, because He has  never condemned. The blameless cannot blame, and those who have
W1:68.5  feel without them. If you succeed even by ever so little, there will  never be a problem in motivation ever again.
W1:70.12  before you can reach the light. But remember also that you have  never found anything in the cloud patterns you imagined that endured
W1:75.7  have forgiven the world today. You can look upon it now as if you  never saw it before. You do not know yet what it looks like. You
W1:75.9  forgiveness entitles you to vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit  never fails to give the gift of sight to the forgiving. Believe He
W1:76.2  it. For if you could, you would forever seek where it is not and  never find it. The idea for today tells you once again how simple is
W1:76.7 The laws of God can  never be replaced. We will devote today to rejoicing that this is so.
W1:76.10  nothing is replaced by something else. God's laws forever give and  never take.
W1:77.3  You have been assured that the Kingdom of God is within you and can  never be lost. We ask no more than what belongs to us in truth.
W1:77.4  for what is rightfully yours. Remind yourself also that miracles are  never taken from one and given to another and that in asking for your
W1:86.2  for salvation will work. And I will rejoice because His plan can  never fail.
W1:93.4  overjoyed to be assured that all the evil that you think you did was  never done, that all your “sins” are nothing, that you are as pure
W1:94.5 Now try to reach the Son of God in you. This is the Self that  never sinned nor made an image to replace reality. This is the Self
W1:94.5  sinned nor made an image to replace reality. This is the Self which  never left its home in God to walk the world uncertainly. This is the
W1:96.1  and none of them has worked. The opposites you see in you will  never be compatible. But one exists.
W1:96.3  and good and evil have no meeting place. The self you made can  never be your Self, nor can your Self be split in two and still be
W1:99.1  resulting in a state of conflict now between what is and what could  never be.
W1:99.2  can escape illusions. Yet it is not truth because it undoes what was  never done.
W1:99.4  of pain? What but a thought of God could be this plan by which the  never done is overlooked and sins forgotten which were never real?
W1:99.4  by which the never done is overlooked and sins forgotten which were  never real?
W1:99.9  the darkened places of your mind which thought the thoughts that  never were His Will.
W1:100.8  that sacrifice is asked. You but receive according to God's plan and  never lose or sacrifice or die.
W1:101.3  salvation must be pain. Pain is the cost of sin, and suffering can  never be escaped if sin is real. Salvation must be feared, for it
W1:101.5  sin is not real, and all that you believe must come from sin will  never happen, for it has no cause. Accept Atonement with an open mind
W1:105.4  will learn a different way of looking at a gift. God's gifts will  never lessen when they are given away. They but increase thereby. As
W1:109.5  while time goes by without its touch upon you, for your rest can  never change in any way at all.
W1:121.6  Thus you return your mind as one to Him Who is your Self and Who can  never sin.
W1:121.11  perceive some light in him somewhere—a little gleam which you had  never noticed. Try to find some little spark of brightness shining
W1:122.1  Do you want a quietness that cannot be disturbed, a gentleness that  never can be hurt, a deep, abiding comfort, and a rest so perfect it
W1:122.1  can be hurt, a deep, abiding comfort, and a rest so perfect it can  never be upset?
W1:122.4  be sought? What fancied value, trivial effect, or transient promise  never to be kept can hold more hope than what forgiveness brings? Why
W1:122.8  newly born, arise in your awareness. What you will remember then can  never be described. Yet your forgiveness offers it to you.
W1:125.4  where He abides forever in the holiness which He created and will  never leave.
W1:125.8  In quiet listen to your Self today, and let Him tell you God has  never left His Son, and you have never left your Self.
W1:125.8  today, and let Him tell you God has never left His Son, and you have  never left your Self.
W1:127.1  and no distinctions. It is like itself, unchanged throughout. It  never alters with a person or a circumstance. It is the Heart of God,
W1:127.9  spared a future like the past. Today we leave the past behind us,  never more to be remembered. And we raise our eyes upon a different
W1:129.5  space away from timelessness. Here can you but look forward,  never back to see again the world you do not want. Here is the world
W1:132.19  release, although you may not fully understand as yet that you could  never be released alone.
W1:133.7  chose is valueless. A temporary value is without all value. Time can  never take away a value that is real. What fades and dies was never
W1:133.7  can never take away a value that is real. What fades and dies was  never there and makes no offering to him who chooses it. He is
W1:134.11  wakened from his dream by understanding what he thought he saw was  never there. And now he cannot feel that all escape has been denied
W1:135.19  is your good? Perhaps you have misunderstood His plan, for He would  never offer pain to you. But your defenses did not let you see His
W1:136.7  standing for attack upon the whole, successful in effect, and  never to be seen as whole again. And yet you have forgotten that they
W1:136.16 And truth will come, for it has  never been apart from us. It merely waits for just this invitation
W1:137.4  that truth is true. The separation sickness would impose has  never really happened. To be healed is merely to accept what always
W1:137.4  must be shown that what they look upon is false. So healing,  never needed by the truth, must demonstrate that sickness is not real.
W1:137.5  but not in truth itself. Just as forgiveness overlooks all sins that  never were accomplished, healing but removes illusions that have not
W1:137.5  Just as the real world will arise to take the place of what has  never been at all, healing but offers restitution for imagined states
W1:137.10  to all the world when you let healing come to you. But you are  never healed alone. And legions upon legions will receive the gift
W1:137.12  invitation be refused? Ask the inevitable to occur, and you will  never fail. The other choice is but to ask what cannot be to be, and
W1:139.4 Yet he could  never be alive at all unless he knew the answer. If he asks as if he
W1:140.9  We will succeed to the extent to which we realize that there can  never be a meaningful distinction made between what is untrue and
W1:151.3  rests upon the witness that your senses offer you. Yet witness  never falser was than this. But how else do you judge the world you
W1:152.14  as we humbly ask our Self that He reveal Himself to us. And He Who  never left will come again to our awareness, grateful to restore His
W1:153.6  and your own weakness seen apart from Him. Defenselessness can  never be attacked because it recognizes strength so great attack is
W1:153.18 In time, with practice, you will  never cease to think of Him and hear His loving Voice guiding your
W1:153.19  will remind ourselves that He remains beside us through the day and  never leaves our weakness unsupported by His strength.
W1:153.21  doubt that you will reach your final goal. The ministers of God can  never fail because the love and strength and peace that shine from
W1:153.21  is all you need to give Him in return. You lay aside but what was  never real to look on Christ and see His sinlessness.
W1:157.9  which transcends all vision, even this, the holiest. This you will  never teach, for you attained it not through learning. Yet the vision
W1:158.9  and all effects they seemed to have are gone with them, undone and  never to be done.
W1:159.3  itself, for it reflects eternal love and the rebirth of love which  never died but has been kept obscure. Christ's vision pictures
W1:159.5  shadows there, transparent, faintly seen, at times forgot, and  never able to obscure the light that shines beyond them. Holiness has
W1:159.6  already. All can be received but for the asking. Here the door is  never locked, and no one is denied his least request or his most
W1:159.8  home. They can be brought from here back to the world, but they can  never grow in its unnourishing and shallow soil. They need the light
W1:161.1  we practice today's idea. Here is the answer to temptation which can  never fail to welcome in the Christ where fear and anger had
W1:162.2  in answer to its call. And those who live and hear this sound will  never look on death.
W1:163.3  certain footsteps when the time has come for its arrival. It will  never fail to take all life as hostage to itself.
W1:164.4  not lost. There is a sense of holiness in you the thought of sin has  never touched. All this today you will remember. Faithfulness in
W1:165.7  are meaningless, for God is certain. And the Thought of Him is  never absent. Sureness must abide within you who are host to Him.
W1:166.2  and true believes in two creators or in one, himself alone. But  never in one God.
W1:166.14  change of mind becomes the proof that who accepts God's gifts can  never suffer anything. You are entrusted with the world's release
W1:167.4  because of causes you cannot control, you did not make, and you can  never change. It is the fixed belief ideas can leave their source and
W1:167.5  can go far beyond themselves. But they cannot give birth to what was  never given them. As they are made, so will their making be. As they
W1:167.9  while. It dreams of time—an interval in which what seems to happen  never has occurred, the changes wrought are substanceless, and all
W1:169.6  disappeared into His Father, as his Father has in him. The world has  never been at all. Eternity remains a constant state.

W2:227.2 And so today we find our glad return to Heaven, which we  never really left. The Son of God this day lays down his dreams. The

W2:241.2  now, and so we come at last to You again. Father, Your Son, who  never left, returns to Heaven and his home. How glad are we to have
W2:248.1  myself. What is in pain is but illusion in my mind. What dies was  never living in reality and did but mock the truth about myself. Now
W2:WIB.3  every 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

C:17.12  the state in which you existed before the original error, then you  never shall.
C:18.19  is a paradox, it is not impossible for the simple reason that you  never left the state of unity that you do not recognize. Your lack of
C:19.4  to the Christ in you and the one mind united with God which you have  never left. Creation's power then returns to you to help all the
C:19.20  attempts to go back have been like attempts to pay a debt that will  never go away. This going back will leave you debt free and thus free

C:30.11  what is finite in nature. The cycle of giving and receiving is thus  never complete, and the certainty you seek always waiting for
C:31.11  ego. Without dislodging your belief in your ego as yourself you will  never realize your true identity.
C:31.24 What you gain in truth is  never lost or forgotten again, because it returns remembrance to your
C:31.25 Your ego thoughts can  never share the truth with you nor with anyone else. The ego invented

T2:1.6  life stops and death reigns. It is not a point at which you arrive,  never to depart. Rest, when truly learned, is a state of being in
T2:1.11  thoughts you have had before. Your thoughts of a grand piano will  never create a grand piano. What kind of thoughts, then, would create
T2:1.13  such as that of music lessons or the purchase of a piano, you will  never reach the goals associated with those tangible steps. Thoughts

T2:8.6  special relationships that would take you away from your true Self.  Never again will you be away from home for home is who you are, a
T2:9.14  thinking has momentarily returned. This does not mean that you will  never be at rest or that you will be constantly seeking to arrive. As
T2:11.12  The ego is but your belief that this has occurred; that what could  never be true has become the truth.
T2:11.15  see yourself as doing battle in countless ways and forms. There will  never actually be a battle going on between Christ and the ego, but
T2:12.11  The ego would hang on to what is already accomplished within you,  never to let it express, through relationship, all that it is. As
T3:1.11  self you presented to others in the past was a chosen self and  never a whole self as evidenced by the variety of selves you saw
T3:3.1  that the personal self that is dear to you is not your ego-self and  never has been.

T3:8.2  is within you, then it is your own revelation toward which we work.  Never forget that establishing your identity has been the only aim of
T3:11.10  reality does not exist. Believing in the reality of illusion will  never make it the truth.

T3:20.10  know how to live by the truth, but the means are not the end and are  never to be confused as such. Your observance is to remain with cause
T3:20.18  choosing, and not from anyone. Thus you are released from a burden  never meant to rest upon you even if it is one you might have freely

Tx:7.107  of difficulty in everything. This is because the ego perceives  nothing as wholly desirable. By demonstrating to yourselves that
Tx:7.109  were created for it. God watches over His Children and denies them  nothing. Yet when they deny Him, they do not know this, because they
Tx:7.111  gift in anyone else, you have acknowledged what He has given you.  Nothing is as easy to perceive as truth. This is the perception which

Tx:8.8  you could learn nothing from the ego because the ego knows  nothing.
Tx:8.20  regardless of the teacher you choose, is know thyself. There is  nothing else to learn. Everyone is looking for himself and for the
Tx:8.32  Nothing God created can oppose your will, as nothing God created can
Tx:8.32 Nothing God created can oppose your will, as  nothing God created can oppose His. God gave your will its power,
Tx:8.33  yours and have not let it be free. Of yourselves you can do  nothing, because of yourselves you are nothing. I am nothing
Tx:8.33  Of yourselves you can do nothing, because of yourselves you are  nothing. I am nothing without the Father, and you are nothing
Tx:8.33  you can do nothing, because of yourselves you are nothing. I am  nothing without the Father, and you are nothing without me,
Tx:8.33  you are nothing. I am nothing without the Father, and you are  nothing without me, because by denying the Father you deny
Tx:8.36  their behalf, as I am offering you mine on yours. Alone we can do  nothing, but together our wills fuse into something whose power is
Tx:8.39  back to all His Children, because I received it of Him for us all.  Nothing can prevail against our united wills, because nothing can
Tx:8.39  for us all. Nothing can prevail against our united wills, because  nothing can prevail against God's. Would you know the Will of God for
Tx:8.39  of me who knows it for you, and you will find it. I will deny you  nothing, as God denies me nothing.

Tx:8.44  loving father left his home and thought he squandered everything for  nothing of any value, although he did not know its worthlessness at
Tx:8.44  only the son himself was his father's treasure. He wanted  nothing else.

Tx:8.60 There is  nothing so frustrating to a learner as to be placed in a curriculum
Tx:8.65  is to limit your mind and hurt yourself. Health is therefore  nothing more than united purpose. If the body is brought under the
Tx:8.76  sense out of meaningless data. Any way you handle them results in  nothing. The more complicated the results become, the harder it may
Tx:8.85  heal. But to make mindless is impossible since it would mean to make  nothing out of what God created. The ego despises weakness, even
Tx:8.88  do. Given this, and given this quite literally, there can be  nothing which prevents you from doing exactly what I ask, and
Tx:8.96  your salvation because it is the same as God's. The separation is  nothing more than the belief that it is different.
Tx:8.100  nothing. Any desire which stems from the ego is a desire for  nothing and to ask for it is not a request. It is merely a denial

Tx:8.103  never created, it is nothing. Can you really devote yourself to  nothing?
Tx:8.105 Remember, then, that God's Will is already possible and  nothing else will ever be. This is the simple acceptance of

Tx:8.118  receive. He will deny you nothing because you have denied Him  nothing, and so you can share everything. This is the way, and the

Tx:9.24  can explain what happens in psychotherapy. Nothing real does.  Nothing real has happened to the unhealed healer, and he learns from
Tx:9.26 Healing is not mysterious.  Nothing will occur unless you understand it, since light is
Tx:9.29  a sound, though insufficient, statement. Only the good can work.  Nothing else works at all. This course is a guide to behavior. Being
Tx:9.44  merely because He knows its foundation is not true. Therefore,  nothing that arises from it means anything. The Holy Spirit judges
Tx:9.47  and you will not hear it. The truth about you is so lofty that  nothing unworthy of God is worthy of you. Choose, then, what you want
Tx:9.47  worthy of you. Choose, then, what you want in these terms and accept  nothing that you would not offer to God as wholly fitting for Him,
Tx:9.58  God's. You did not establish your value, and it needs no defense.  Nothing can attack it or prevail over it. It does not vary. It merely
Tx:9.59  Nothing beyond yourself can make you fearful or loving, because
Tx:9.59 Nothing beyond yourself can make you fearful or loving, because  nothing is beyond you. Time and eternity are both in your mind and
Tx:9.59  You must learn that time is solely at your disposal, and that  nothing in the world can take this responsibility from you. You can

Tx:9.60 God created nothing beside you, and  nothing beside you exists, for you are part of Him. What except Him
Tx:9.60  you exists, for you are part of Him. What except Him can exist?  Nothing beyond Him can happen, because nothing except Him is
Tx:9.60  except Him can exist? Nothing beyond Him can happen, because  nothing except Him is real. Your creations add to Him as you do,
Tx:9.60  except Him is real. Your creations add to Him as you do, but  nothing is added that is different, because everything has always
Tx:9.61  exceed the love of God? Can anything, then, exceed your will?  Nothing can reach you from beyond it because, being in God, you
Tx:9.68  it. Knowledge therefore precedes dissociation, and dissociation is  nothing more than a decision to forget. What has been forgotten
Tx:9.69  you are willing to remember Him and know your own reality again. Let  nothing in this world delay your remembering of Him, for in this

Tx:9.81  replace God, and whatever replacements you have attempted are  nothing.

Tx:9.83  honor them is to honor nothing. Yet fear is not due them either, for  nothing cannot be fearful. You have chosen to fear love because of
Tx:9.84  which god is real. Although it is perfectly clear that this has  nothing to do with reality, it is equally clear that it has
Tx:9.89  them with chaos and accepting it of them. All this has never been.  Nothing but the laws of God has ever operated, and nothing except His
Tx:9.89  has never been. Nothing but the laws of God has ever operated, and  nothing except His Will will ever be. You were created through His
Tx:9.89  want it if you were willing to see it as it is. You will see  nothing at all. And your vision will automatically look beyond it to
Tx:9.90  truth at all. Peace is yours because God created you. And He created  nothing else.
Tx:9.96  Who alone is his help. We said before that of yourselves you can do  nothing, but you are not of yourselves. If you were, what you have
Tx:9.97  because you did not make yourselves that you need be troubled by  nothing. Your gods are nothing, because your Father did not create
Tx:9.97  make yourselves that you need be troubled by nothing. Your gods are  nothing, because your Father did not create them. You cannot make
Tx:10.1  irreconcilable natures cannot be reconciled by your vacillations.  Nothing alive is fatherless, for life is creation. Therefore, your
Tx:10.2  made out of the wish of God's Son to father Him. The ego, then, is  nothing more than a delusional system in which you made your own
Tx:10.3  and that everything of which you have been afraid was based on  nothing.
Tx:10.7  not be unified. Is this conceivable? Can part of His Mind contain  nothing? If your place in His Mind cannot be filled by anyone
Tx:10.15  it upon you. Always remember that what He gives, He holds, so that  nothing He gives can contradict Him. You who share His Life must
Tx:10.21  with His gift. Invite this knowledge back into your minds, and let  nothing that will obscure it enter. The Guest whom God sent you will
Tx:10.22  although He cannot help you without your invitation, and the ego is  nothing whether you invite it in or not. Real freedom depends on
Tx:10.26  it is very different. Yours is the way of pain, of which God knows  nothing. That way is hard indeed and very lonely. Fear and grief
Tx:10.27 God hides  nothing from His Son, even though His Son would hide himself. Yet the
Tx:10.36  cannot be shut, and I live forever. God is my life and yours, and  nothing is denied by God to His Son.
Tx:10.40  does not exist. Laws do not operate in a vacuum, and what leads to  nothing has not happened. If reality is recognized by its
Tx:10.40  If reality is recognized by its extension, what extends to  nothing cannot be real.
Tx:10.43  that any effort exerted on its behalf is necessarily expended on  nothing. The ego's goal is quite explicitly ego autonomy. From the
Tx:10.46  behalf of separation. Believing it has the power to do this, it does  nothing else because its goal of autonomy is nothing else. The ego
Tx:10.46  to do this, it does nothing else because its goal of autonomy is  nothing else. The ego is totally confused about reality, but it does
Tx:10.57  remember the Father? Accept His Son, and you will remember Him.  Nothing can demonstrate that His Son is unworthy, for nothing can
Tx:10.57  remember Him. Nothing can demonstrate that His Son is unworthy, for  nothing can prove that a lie is true. What you see of His Son through
Tx:10.57  God's Son, and in the Presence of Christ they need demonstrate  nothing, for Christ speaks to them of Himself and of His Father. They
Tx:10.68  their oneness. The whole power of God is in every part of Him, and  nothing contradictory to His Will is either great or small. What does
Tx:10.70  be perceived. All that is necessary is a willingness to perceive  nothing else. For if you perceive both good and evil, you are
Tx:10.74  Perhaps you do not feel that a course which, in the end, teaches  nothing more than that only reality is true is necessary. But do you
Tx:10.76  Instruction in perception is your great need, for you understand  nothing. Recognize this but do not accept it, for understanding is
Tx:10.80  a course in the play of ideas, but in their practical application.  Nothing could be more specific than to be told very clearly that if
Tx:10.80  it will demand of you. Yet only by asking will you learn that  nothing that is of God demands anything of you. God gives; He
Tx:10.82  the asking. Do not deny it to yourself, for it can only free you.  Nothing of God will enslave His Son, whom He created free and whose
Tx:10.83  truth is in me, for I know that it is in you. God's Sons have  nothing which they do not share. Ask for truth of any Son of God, and
Tx:10.85  Help by asking for it, you will give it because you want it.  Nothing will be beyond your healing power because nothing will be
Tx:10.85  you want it. Nothing will be beyond your healing power because  nothing will be denied your simple request. What problems will not
Tx:11.4  of it. This is poor reality testing by definition. There is  nothing to prevent you from recognizing all calls for help as
Tx:11.27  is only you, therefore, who have made the request outrageous, for  nothing can be asked of you, and every request of a brother is for
Tx:11.27  be made of one who recognizes what is valuable and wants to accept  nothing else.
Tx:11.52  else will be given you. For it is your will to learn aright, and  nothing can oppose the Will of God's Son. His learning is as
Tx:11.53  Soul and there is no gain in the world, for of itself it profits  nothing. To invest in something without profit is surely to
Tx:11.53  costs you the world's reality by denying yours and gives you  nothing in return. You cannot sell your Soul, but you can sell
Tx:11.54 The Holy Spirit is your strength because He perceives  nothing but your Soul as you. He is perfectly aware that you do
Tx:11.69 When you want only love you will see  nothing else. The contradictory nature of the witnesses you perceive
Tx:11.78  fear. His Father's love holds him in perfect peace, and needing  nothing, he asks for nothing. Yet he is far from you whose Self he
Tx:11.78  love holds him in perfect peace, and needing nothing, he asks for  nothing. Yet he is far from you whose Self he is, for you chose to
Tx:11.81  of it and rejoice that it is not so. Son of God, be not content with  nothing! What is not real cannot be seen and has no value. God
Tx:11.82  made the invisible the only truth that this world holds. Valuing  nothing, you have sought nothing and found nothing. By making
Tx:11.82  only truth that this world holds. Valuing nothing, you have sought  nothing and found nothing. By making nothing real to you, you
Tx:11.82  world holds. Valuing nothing, you have sought nothing and found  nothing. By making nothing real to you, you have seen it. But it
Tx:11.82  nothing, you have sought nothing and found nothing. By making  nothing real to you, you have seen it. But it is not there. And
Tx:11.82  his vision is shared. The Holy Spirit looks upon him and sees  nothing else in you. What is invisible to you is perfect in His
Tx:12.3  lies hidden there, for the ego's destructive urge is so intense that  nothing short of the crucifixion of God's Son can ultimately satisfy
Tx:12.9 Little children, this is not so. Your “guilty secret” is  nothing, and if you will but bring it to the light, the light will
Tx:12.12 Your fear of attack is  nothing compared to your fear of love. You would be willing to look
Tx:12.21 In peace he needed  nothing and asked for nothing. In war he demanded everything and
Tx:12.21 In peace he needed nothing and asked for  nothing. In war he demanded everything and found nothing. For how
Tx:12.21  and asked for nothing. In war he demanded everything and found  nothing. For how could the gentleness of love respond to his demands
Tx:12.55  you from the world and follow it. For this light will attract you as  nothing in this world can do. And you will lay aside the world and
Tx:12.59  it. There is no day that brightens and grows dim. There is no loss.  Nothing is there but shines, and shines forever.
Tx:12.61  no city that you built has withstood the crumbling assault of time.  Nothing you made but has the mark of death upon it. Hold it not dear,
Tx:12.65 It is God's Will that  nothing touch His Son except Himself, and nothing else comes nigh
Tx:12.65 It is God's Will that nothing touch His Son except Himself, and  nothing else comes nigh unto him. He is as safe from pain as God
Tx:12.67  Yet the dreams of love lead unto knowledge. In them you see  nothing fearful, and because of this, they are the welcome that you
Tx:12.68 Your Father knoweth that you have need of  nothing. In Heaven this is so, for what could you need in eternity?
Tx:12.69  although the ego urges you again and again to get, it leaves you  nothing, for what you get, it will demand of you. And even from the
Tx:12.70  and will renew them as long as you have need of them. He will take  nothing from you as long as you have any need of it. And yet He
Tx:12.71  his inheritance. Within himself he has no needs, for light needs  nothing but to shine in peace and from itself to let the rays extend
Tx:13.2  and knowledge becomes quite apparent if you consider this: There is  nothing partial about knowledge. Every aspect is whole, and therefore
Tx:13.13 The world can give you only what you gave it, for being  nothing but your own projection, it has no meaning apart from what
Tx:13.28  The altar to your Father is as pure as He Who raised it to Himself.  Nothing can keep from you what Christ would have you see. His Will is
Tx:13.36  not freedom, so you made not a war that could endanger freedom.  Nothing destructive ever was or will be. The war, the guilt, the past
Tx:13.37  united in Heaven, you will value nothing that you value here. For  nothing that you value here you value wholly, and so you do not value
Tx:13.37  is not to know its value. In Heaven is everything God valued and  nothing else. Heaven is perfectly unambiguous. Everything is clear
Tx:13.38  Nothing in this world can give this peace, for nothing in this world
Tx:13.38 Nothing in this world can give this peace, for  nothing in this world is wholly shared. Perfect perception can merely
Tx:13.39  has laid upon himself. It is impossible that this mission fail.  Nothing can prevent what God would have accomplished from
Tx:13.41  thing, and it will be sufficient: God wills you be in Heaven, and  nothing can keep you from it or it from you. Your wildest
Tx:13.41  your weird imaginings, your blackest nightmares all mean  nothing. They will not prevail against the peace God wills for you.
Tx:13.43 God willed you Heaven and will always will you  nothing else. The Holy Spirit knows only of His Will. There is no
Tx:13.49  not to know. The logic of the world must therefore lead to  nothing, for its goal is nothing.
Tx:13.49  of the world must therefore lead to nothing, for its goal is  nothing.
Tx:13.50 If you decide to have and give and be  nothing except a dream, you must direct your thoughts unto
Tx:13.51  up by him, for the Source of their undoing is in him. There is  nothing in the world to teach him that the logic of the world is
Tx:13.51  teach him that the logic of the world is totally insane and leads to  nothing. Yet in him who made this insane logic, there is One Who
Tx:13.51  him who made this insane logic, there is One Who knows it leads to  nothing, for He knows everything.
Tx:13.53  become so twisted and so complex that you cannot see that it means  nothing. He merely looks at its foundation and dismisses it. But
Tx:13.55 Have faith in  nothing, and you will find the “treasure” that you sought. Yet you
Tx:13.55  burdened or you would not have sought another. You will believe that  nothing is of value and will value it. A little piece of glass, a
Tx:13.55  a body or a war are one to you. For if you value one thing made of  nothing, you have believed that nothing can be precious and that
Tx:13.55  if you value one thing made of nothing, you have believed that  nothing can be precious and that you can learn how to make the
Tx:13.56  for twisted minds. Consider all the distortions you have made of  nothing—all the strange forms and feelings and actions and
Tx:13.56  feelings and actions and reactions that you have woven out of it.  Nothing is so alien to you as the simple truth, and nothing are you
Tx:13.56  woven out of it. Nothing is so alien to you as the simple truth, and  nothing are you less inclined to listen to. The contrast between what
Tx:13.57  are not apparent to those who would make palaces and royal robes of  nothing, believing they are kings with golden crowns because of them.
Tx:13.57  is not true. To these unhappy learners who would teach themselves  nothing and delude themselves into believing that it is not
Tx:13.57  nothing and delude themselves into believing that it is not  nothing, the Holy Spirit says, with steadfast quietness:
Tx:13.58 The truth is true.  Nothing else matters, nothing else is real, and everything beside it
Tx:13.58 The truth is true. Nothing else matters,  nothing else is real, and everything beside it is not there. Let Me
Tx:13.58  for you which you cannot make but need to learn. Your faith in  nothing is deceiving you. Offer your faith to Me, and I will place
Tx:13.59  this light brings to them because it teaches them release from  nothing and from all the works of nothing. The heavy chains which
Tx:13.59  it teaches them release from nothing and from all the works of  nothing. The heavy chains which seem to bind them unto despair they
Tx:13.59  heavy chains which seem to bind them unto despair they do not see as  nothing until you bring the light to them. And then they see the
Tx:13.59  they see the chains have disappeared, and so they must have been  nothing. And you will see it with them. Because you taught them
Tx:13.60  Learn to be happy learners. You will never learn how to make  nothing everything. Yet see that this has been your goal and
Tx:13.60  simple honesty, it is undone. We said before, “Be not content with  nothing,” for you have believed that nothing could content you. It
Tx:13.60  before, “Be not content with nothing,” for you have believed that  nothing could content you. It is not so.
Tx:13.62  door which you believe is locked forever. You made this door of  nothing and behind it is nothing. The key is only the light which
Tx:13.62  locked forever. You made this door of nothing and behind it is  nothing. The key is only the light which shines away the shapes and
Tx:13.62  only the light which shines away the shapes and forms and fears of  nothing. Accept this key to freedom from the hands of Christ Who
Tx:13.63  realize it is impossible to deny the simple truth. For there is  nothing else. God is everywhere, and His Son is in Him with
Tx:13.67 What I experience, I will make manifest. If I am guiltless, I have  nothing to fear. I choose to testify to my acceptance of the
Tx:13.70  to free his brother and enter light with him. By giving power to  nothing, he threw away the joyous opportunity to learn that nothing
Tx:13.70  power to nothing, he threw away the joyous opportunity to learn that  nothing has no power. And by not dispelling darkness, he became
Tx:13.71  which you have accepted for yourself, is also his. There is  nothing to forgive. No one can hurt the Son of God. His guilt is
Tx:13.72  as yours. The power that God has given to His Son is his, and  nothing else can His Son see or choose to look upon without imposing
Tx:13.74  need, coming as naturally as peace that knows no limits. There is  nothing their wills will not provide that offers them anything of
Tx:13.86  even as God gave it first to His Son. The first in time means  nothing, but the First in eternity is God the Father, Who is both
Tx:13.86  there is no other, for there is no order, no second or third and  nothing but the First.
Tx:14.2  in your experience of the world to help you understand it. There is  nothing on earth with which it can compare and nothing you have ever
Tx:14.2  it. There is nothing on earth with which it can compare and  nothing you have ever felt, apart from Him, that resembles it ever so
Tx:14.2  gentleness. Would you know of One Who gives forever and Who knows of  nothing except giving?
Tx:14.3  yours. If you remember what you have made, you are remembering  nothing. Remembrance of reality is in Him and therefore in you.
Tx:14.4  with the Mind of God has never been. Communication with God is life.  Nothing without it is at all.
Tx:14.6  you share with God He holds in trust for you. He would teach you  nothing except how to be happy.
Tx:14.7  created for you. Who can condemn whom God has blessed? There is  nothing in the Mind of God that does not share His shining innocence.
Tx:14.8  from his own sight. We are all joined in the Atonement here, and  nothing else can unite us in this world. So will the world of
Tx:14.16  is the exchange of dark for light, of ignorance for understanding.  Nothing you understand is fearful. It is only in darkness and in
Tx:14.16  you did, it would be clear, and you would be no longer in the dark.  Nothing has hidden value, for what is hidden cannot be shared, and
Tx:14.17  Holy Spirit dwells within you is merely perfect openness in which  nothing is hidden and therefore nothing is fearful. Attack will
Tx:14.17  is merely perfect openness in which nothing is hidden and therefore  nothing is fearful. Attack will always yield to love if it is
Tx:14.17  it carefully, and you who made these guardians of illusion out of  nothing are now afraid of them.
Tx:14.18  nor unsafe. They do not protect; neither do they attack. They do  nothing at all, being nothing at all. As guardians of darkness and
Tx:14.18  not protect; neither do they attack. They do nothing at all, being  nothing at all. As guardians of darkness and of ignorance, look to
Tx:14.20  much in your mind that lets you think you are. All this, and  nothing else, would He separate from you. The power of decision,
Tx:14.22  at once, and this must lead to unintelligibility. Yet if one means  nothing and the other everything, only that one is possible for
Tx:14.23  not fearful and cannot serve to guard the dark doors behind which  nothing at all is carefully concealed. We must open all doors and let
Tx:14.31  you how to recognize what you see. It is the recognition that  nothing you see means anything alone. Seeing with Him will show you
Tx:14.32  of innocence. Behind the dark doors which you have closed lies  nothing, because nothing can obscure the gift of God. It is the
Tx:14.32  Behind the dark doors which you have closed lies nothing, because  nothing can obscure the gift of God. It is the closing of the doors
Tx:14.33  Father and His Son. No altar stands to God without His Son. And  nothing brought there that is not equally worthy of both but will be
Tx:14.35  and His Son's belong to you in truth. They have no opposite, and  nothing else can you bestow upon yourselves.
Tx:14.36  nowhere else. Where God is, there are you. Such is the truth.  Nothing can change the knowledge given you by God into unknowingness.
Tx:14.37  of God for you. Lay no gifts other than this upon your altars, for  nothing can coexist beside it. Here your meager offerings are brought
Tx:14.40  You are not frail with God beside you. Yet without Him you are  nothing. The Atonement offers you God. The gift which you refused is
Tx:14.52  either to recognize love or to believe that everything else is  nothing but a need for love. You are too bound to form and not to
Tx:14.52  you consider content is not content at all. It is merely form, and  nothing else. For you do not respond to what a brother really
Tx:14.53  of the dynamics of the mind, let me assure you that you know  nothing of it at all. For of yourselves you could not know of it.
Tx:14.56  Him is perfectly open and freely accessible to all, being for all.  Nothing lives in secret, and what you would hide from the Holy Spirit
Tx:14.56  lives in secret, and what you would hide from the Holy Spirit is  nothing. Every interpretation you would lay upon a brother is
Tx:14.60  holds for you. Your learning gives the present no meaning at all.  Nothing you have ever learned can help you understand the present or
Tx:14.61  you see the darkness. Yet darkness cannot be seen, for it is  nothing more than a condition in which seeing becomes impossible. You
Tx:14.72 Those who remember always that they know  nothing, but who have become willing to learn everything, will
Tx:14.73  really learn at all. And for this, it must be peace they want and  nothing else. Whenever you think you know, peace will depart from
Tx:15.1  the time? Yet that is what time is for—to learn just that and  nothing more. God's Teacher cannot be satisfied with His teaching
Tx:15.8  in the ego's use of time. For time, according to its teaching, is  nothing but a teaching device for compounding guilt until it
Tx:15.9  forever. It is so beautiful and so clean and free of guilt that  nothing but happiness is there. No darkness is remembered, and
Tx:15.10  this very instant, now, and think of it as all there is of time.  Nothing can reach you here out of the past, and it is here that you
Tx:15.32  constant and at peace forever with Itself. You will be content with  nothing but His Will. Accept no less, remembering that everything I
Tx:15.32  offer to yourselves, for you will know you are complete, in need of  nothing, and unable to accept anything for yourself. But you will
Tx:15.36  salvation in exchange for God's. His will content you, and there is  nothing else that can bring you peace. For peace is of God and of no
Tx:15.39  is simple is that truth is simple. Complexity is of the ego and is  nothing more than the ego's attempt to obscure the obvious.
Tx:15.40  all minds are in communication. It therefore seeks to change  nothing, but merely to accept everything.
Tx:15.44  to acknowledge that you are host to God and hostage to no one and  nothing.
Tx:15.51  your seeking a picture whose likeness does not exist. For there is  nothing in Heaven or earth that it resembles, and so however much you
Tx:15.53 God knows you now. He remembers  nothing, having always known you exactly as He knows you now. The
Tx:15.62 In the holy instant,  nothing happens that has not always been. Only the veil that has been
Tx:15.62  been. Only the veil that has been drawn across reality is lifted.  Nothing has changed. Yet the awareness of changelessness comes
Tx:15.63  as long as you prefer to be something else, or would attempt to be  nothing else and something else together, the language of
Tx:15.65  love that is fully given and fully returned. Being complete, it asks  nothing. Being wholly pure, everyone joined in it has everything.
Tx:15.67  your only question will be why it was you ever wanted it. You have  nothing to lose by looking open-eyed at this, for ugliness such as
Tx:15.74  what brings guilt cannot be love and must be anger. All anger is  nothing more than an attempt to make someone feel guilty, and this
Tx:15.79  that in complete forgiveness, in which you recognize that there is  nothing to forgive, you are absolved completely.
Tx:15.81  comes from One Who cannot fail. Accept your sense of failure as  nothing more than a mistake in who you are. For the holy host of God
Tx:15.81  in who you are. For the holy host of God is beyond failure, and  nothing that he wills can be denied. You are forever in a
Tx:15.82  as He withheld Himself not from you, He withheld not His creation.  Nothing that ever was created but is yours. Your relationships are
Tx:15.86  of the ego, as the ego is the symbol of the separation. And both are  nothing more than attempts to limit communication and thereby to make
Tx:15.93  yourself, you ask of me. Learn now that sacrifice of any kind is  nothing but a limitation imposed on giving. And by this limitation,
Tx:15.95  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 the
Tx:15.96  to your thought system that salvation apart from sacrifice means  nothing to you. Your confusion of sacrifice and love is so profound
Tx:15.100  hostage to the ego, for it keeps no bargains and would leave you  nothing. [Nor can you be partial host to it.] You will have to
Tx:15.101  together and perceived where they are, the choice between them is  nothing more than a gentle awakening and as simple as opening your
Tx:15.103  celebrate our release together by releasing everyone with us. Leave  nothing behind, for release is total, and when you have accepted it
Tx:15.110  I have perfect faith in you to do all that you would accomplish.  Nothing will be lacking, and you will make complete and not
Tx:16.3  is. All you have learned of empathy is from the past. And there is  nothing from the past that you would share, for there is nothing
Tx:16.3  there is nothing from the past that you would share, for there is  nothing there that you would keep. Do not use empathy to make the
Tx:16.4  past upon my Guest. I have invited Him, and He is here. I need do  nothing except not to interfere.
Tx:16.21  what He has taught, and what you have taught through Him, have  nothing in common with what you taught before He came. And the
Tx:16.25  is their home. You who are host to God are also host to them. For  nothing real has ever left the mind of its creator. And what is not
Tx:16.27  His Father does. His Kingdom has no limits and no end, and there is  nothing in Him that is not perfect and eternal. All this is you,
Tx:16.27  in Him that is not perfect and eternal. All this is you, and  nothing outside of this is you.
Tx:16.36  is an attempt [to bring love into separation. And, as such, it is  nothing more than an attempt] to bring love into fear and make it
Tx:16.38  is your completion, for you will be wholly in God, willing for  nothing special but only to be wholly like unto Him, completing Him
Tx:16.38  forever. Seek not for this in the bleak world of illusion, where  nothing is certain, and where everything fails to satisfy. In the
Tx:16.41  it. Turn with me firmly away from all illusions now, and let  nothing stand in the way of truth. We will take the last foolish
Tx:16.42  creation. On this side of the bridge to timelessness you understand  nothing. But as you step lightly across it, upheld by timelessness,
Tx:16.47  over God. In this it sees the ultimate freedom of the self, for  nothing would remain to interfere with it. This is its idea of
Tx:16.49  prefer. And he feels guilty for the “sin” of taking and of giving  nothing of value in return. For how much value can he place upon a
Tx:16.50  with Heaven. Yet if all illusions are of fear, and they can be of  nothing else, the illusion of Heaven is nothing more than an
Tx:16.50  fear, and they can be of nothing else, the illusion of Heaven is  nothing more than an “attractive” form of fear in which the guilt is
Tx:16.55  have any influence at all upon it. See in the special relationship  nothing more than a meaningless attempt to raise other gods before
Tx:16.56  no difficulty in perceiving the decision as just what it is and  nothing more.
Tx:16.58  simply because you will recognize that God is on the other side and  nothing at all is here. It is impossible not to make the natural
Tx:16.62  For the ego wants but part of him and sees only this part and  nothing else.
Tx:16.64 The bridge itself is  nothing more than a transition in your perspective of reality. On
Tx:16.64  actual disorientation seems to occur. But fear it not, for it means  nothing more than that you have been willing to let go your hold on
Tx:16.66  Nothing you seek to strengthen in the special relationship is
Tx:16.67  and learn how much awaits you for the simple willingness to give up  nothing because it is nothing.
Tx:16.67  you for the simple willingness to give up nothing because it is  nothing.
Tx:16.71  it what it is. It has no meaning in the present, and if it means  nothing now, it cannot have any real meaning at all. How can you
Tx:16.71  can give you what you think the past deprived you of? The past is  nothing. Do not seek to lay the blame for deprivation on it, for the
Tx:16.78 There is  nothing you can hold against reality. All that must be forgiven are
Tx:16.78  has no past, and only illusions can be forgiven. God holds  nothing against anyone, for He is incapable of illusions of any
Tx:16.80  they perceived as great or small, possible or impossible. There is  nothing that will not give place to Him and to His majesty. To join
Tx:17.7  look to you? In no fantasy have you ever seen anything so lovely.  Nothing you see here, sleeping or waking, comes near to such
Tx:17.7  you see here, sleeping or waking, comes near to such loveliness. And  nothing will you value like unto this nor hold so dear. Nothing that
Tx:17.7  And nothing will you value like unto this nor hold so dear.  Nothing that you remember that made your heart seem to sing with joy
Tx:17.8  and clean and new with everything sparkling under the open sun.  Nothing is hidden here, for everything has been forgiven, and there
Tx:17.9  you learn to reach. Fantasies are all undone, and no one and  nothing remains still bound by them, and by your own forgiveness,
Tx:17.10  everything that has been used for learning will have no function.  Nothing will ever change; no shifts nor shadings, no differences, no
Tx:17.18  have not been made at all. Where no reality has entered, there is  nothing to intrude upon the dream of happiness. Yet consider what
Tx:17.27 God established His relationship with you to make you happy, and  nothing you do which does not share His purpose can be real. The
Tx:17.27  the function of relationships became forever “to make happy.” And  nothing else. To fulfill this function, you relate to your creations
Tx:17.27  this function, you relate to your creations as God to His. For  nothing God created is apart from happiness, and nothing God created
Tx:17.27  as God to His. For nothing God created is apart from happiness, and  nothing God created but would extend happiness as its Creator did.
Tx:17.40  as what it is—a picture of what you thought was real and  nothing more. For beyond this picture, you will see nothing.
Tx:17.40  was real and nothing more. For beyond this picture, you will see  nothing.
Tx:17.69  forth and accomplish every miracle needed for its fulfillment.  Nothing too small or too enormous, too weak or too compelling, but
Tx:17.71  in every aspect and complete in every part. You can leave  nothing of yourself outside it and keep the situation holy. For it
Tx:17.74 The holy instant is  nothing more than a special case or an extreme example of what every
Tx:17.75  and bring you peace. Not even faith is asked of you, for truth asks  nothing. Let it enter, and it will call forth and secure for you
Tx:17.77  terror, cold fantasies of fear and fiery dreams of hell. And it was  nothing but the intolerable strain of refusing to give faith to truth
Tx:17.79  and will not change, for you accepted what can never change. And  nothing that it needs to be forever changeless can you now withhold
Tx:18.2  are perceived as different. One would unite; the other separate.  Nothing can come between what God has joined and what the Holy Spirit
Tx:18.5  aspects are fearful enough, as you begin to look at them. But  nothing you have seen begins to show you the enormity of the original
Tx:18.7  at all. None of them matters. That they have in common and  nothing else. Yet what else is necessary to make them all the same?
Tx:18.9  course inward to the truth you share. In the mad world outside you,  nothing can be shared but only substituted, and sharing and
Tx:18.9  be shared but only substituted, and sharing and substituting have  nothing in common in reality. Within yourselves you love each other
Tx:18.36  think that they must first atone, but only to those who offer it  nothing more than simple willingness to make way for it. Purification
Tx:18.37  to me my own awareness of my readiness, which is eternal. I need add  nothing to His plan. But to receive it, I must be willing not to
Tx:18.39  makes it what it is. Yet we have emphasized that you need understand  nothing. Salvation is easy just because it asks nothing that you
Tx:18.39  need understand nothing. Salvation is easy just because it asks  nothing that you cannot give right now.
Tx:18.45  that He gave to your relationship by accepting it for you, and  nothing will be wanting that would make of it what He would have it
Tx:18.49  an awareness of perfect Oneness and the knowledge that there is  nothing else; nothing outside this Oneness and nothing else within.
Tx:18.49  of perfect Oneness and the knowledge that there is nothing else;  nothing outside this Oneness and nothing else within.
Tx:18.49  that there is nothing else; nothing outside this Oneness and  nothing else within.
Tx:18.50  bodies from your minds. Yet a body cannot be guilty, for it can do  nothing of itself. You who think you hate your bodies deceive
Tx:18.54  fantasies. For it is still the fantasies you want, and they have  nothing to do with what the body does. It does not dream of them,
Tx:18.56  It does not go out. Within itself it has no limits, and there is  nothing outside it. [It encompasses everything.] It encompasses you
Tx:18.56  encompasses you entirely; you within it, and it within you. There is  nothing else, anywhere or ever.
Tx:18.65  instant, the attraction of guilt would be experienced as pain and  nothing else and would be avoided. It has no attraction now. Its
Tx:18.67  it always comes with just one happy realization: “I need do  nothing.”
Tx:18.68  Save time for me by only this one preparation and practice, doing  nothing else. “I need do nothing” is a statement of allegiance, a
Tx:18.69  do anything involves the body. And if you recognize you need do  nothing, you have withdrawn the body's value from your mind. Here is
Tx:18.69  now. For here is time denied and past and future gone. Who need do  nothing has no need for time. To do nothing is to rest and make a
Tx:18.69  and future gone. Who need do nothing has no need for time. To do  nothing is to rest and make a place within you where the activity of
Tx:18.70  than all its raging activity. This quiet center, in which you do  nothing, will remain with you, giving you rest in the midst of every
Tx:18.75  the whole to give them any meaning, for by themselves they do mean  nothing. Nor have they any life apart and by themselves.
Tx:18.77  this little fenced-off aspect as yourself. The sun and ocean are as  nothing beside what you are. The sunbeam sparkles only in the
Tx:18.77  kingdom, a sorry king, a bitter ruler of all he surveys who looks on  nothing, yet who would still die to defend it? This little self is
Tx:18.90  touch it and it disappears; attempt to grasp it and your hands hold  nothing.
Tx:18.94  that God Himself can take the final step unhindered, for here does  nothing interfere with love, letting it be itself. A step beyond this
Tx:18.94  you to something completely different. Here is the Source of light— nothing perceived, forgiven, nor transformed, but merely known.
Tx:18.98  has come to you in the holy place of forgiveness, you will remember  nothing else, and memory will be as useless as learning, for your
Tx:19.14  through faith. And there it is that you will realize that there is  nothing faith cannot forgive. No error interferes with its calm
Tx:19.16  the eternal you do to you. Whom God created as His Son is slave to  nothing, being lord of all along with his Creator. You can enslave a
Tx:19.19  the power of his mind against himself. But he cannot sin. There is  nothing he can do that would really change his reality in any way
Tx:19.24 Would you not rather that all this be  nothing more than a mistake, entirely correctable, and so easily
Tx:19.28 Mistakes are for correction, and they call for  nothing else. What calls for punishment must call for nothing. Every
Tx:19.28  they call for nothing else. What calls for punishment must call for  nothing. Every mistake must be a call for love. What, then, is sin?
Tx:19.38  across the obstacles you placed before it. This will you do, for  nothing undertaken with the Holy Spirit remains unfinished. You can
Tx:19.38  with the Holy Spirit remains unfinished. You can indeed be sure of  nothing you see outside you, but of this you can be sure: the Holy
Tx:19.48  never to return, and part with it in gladness, not regret. For it is  nothing in itself and stood for nothing when you had greater faith in
Tx:19.48  in gladness, not regret. For it is nothing in itself and stood for  nothing when you had greater faith in its protection. Would you not
Tx:19.64 You have paid very dearly for your illusions, and  nothing you have paid for brought you peace. Are you not glad that
Tx:19.82  Of itself, it is neither corruptible nor incorruptible. It is  nothing. It is the result of a tiny mad idea of corruption which can
Tx:19.88  in what they represent. And they may thus mean everything or  nothing, according to the truth or falsity of the idea which they
Tx:19.95  of your “friends,” your “protectors,” and your “home” will vanish.  Nothing that you remember now will you remember.
Tx:19.108  to be lost, but found; not to be seen, but known. And knowing,  nothing in the plan God has established for salvation will be left
Tx:20.11  thorns, no strangers, and no obstacles to peace. The fear of God is  nothing to you now. Who is afraid to look upon illusions, knowing his
Tx:20.28  Nothing can hurt you unless you give it the power to do so. For you
Tx:20.31  and they will give it only to what God has given to share with them.  Nothing but this can touch them, for they see only this, sharing
Tx:20.35  His plan as the one function that you would fulfill, there will be  nothing else the Holy Spirit will not arrange for you without your
Tx:20.36  in your way no stones to trip on and no obstacles to bar your way.  Nothing you need will be denied you. Not one seeming difficulty but
Tx:20.36  but will melt away before you reach it. You need take thought for  nothing, careless of everything except the only purpose that you
Tx:20.41  eternity that runs through time like golden light is all the same— nothing before it, nothing afterwards.
Tx:20.41  through time like golden light is all the same—nothing before it,  nothing afterwards.
Tx:20.42  it ever held or will ever hold is here right now. The past takes  nothing from it, and the future will add no more. Here, then, is
Tx:20.45  If it were elsewhere, it would rest upon contingency, but there is  nothing else. And this is wholly loving and forever. Yet has the Son
Tx:20.46  Nothing can show the contrast better than the experience of both a
Tx:20.46  to be known, completely understood, and shared. It has no secrets;  nothing that it would keep apart and hide. It walks in sunlight,
Tx:20.49  mystery, a meaningless enclosure carefully protected, yet hiding  nothing. Here the unholy relationship escapes reality and seeks for
Tx:20.51 Idolaters will always be afraid of love, for  nothing so severely threatens them as love's approach. Let love draw
Tx:20.58  as does His purpose. Being so simple and direct, this course has  nothing in it that is not consistent. The seeming inconsistencies or
Tx:20.58  great discomfort. This need not be. This course requires almost  nothing of you. It is impossible to imagine one that asks so little
Tx:20.61  is merely neutral. It is not sinful, but neither is it sinless. As  nothing, which it is, the body cannot meaningfully be invested with
Tx:20.75 Only two purposes are possible. And one is sin, the other holiness.  Nothing is in between, and which you choose determines what you see.
Tx:20.75  to sin and seems to witness to its reality. It still is true that  nothing is without. Yet upon nothing are all projections made. For
Tx:20.75  to its reality. It still is true that nothing is without. Yet upon  nothing are all projections made. For it is the projection which
Tx:21.1 Projection makes perception. The world you see is what you gave it,  nothing more than that. But though it is no more than that, it is not
Tx:21.1  meaningless. Everything looked upon with vision is healed and holy.  Nothing perceived without it means anything. And where there is no
Tx:21.6  “see” in their imagination, believing that their choice is that or  nothing. They hate the world they learned through pain. And
Tx:21.9 The notes are  nothing. Yet you have kept them with you, not for themselves, but as
Tx:21.9  would lose the world you learned since then. And yet you know that  nothing in the world you learned is half so dear as this. Listen and
Tx:21.11  this and not the body. You know the ancient song and know it well.  Nothing will ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn [of love]
Tx:21.17  possible within the universe as God created it, outside of which is  nothing. Suffer, and you decided sin was your goal. Be happy, and you
Tx:21.25  deny. And so he seems to be the cause, producing real effects.  Nothing can have effects without a cause and to confuse the two is
Tx:21.26  that you did not create yourself. They are the same mistake.  Nothing created not by your Creator has any influence over you. And
Tx:21.27  has no power to create, and what he makes is meaningless. It changes  nothing in creation, depends entirely upon the madness of its maker,
Tx:21.30  it. No one allows a purpose to be replaced while he desires it, for  nothing is so cherished and protected as is a goal the mind accepts.
Tx:21.45  and recognized him perfectly since time began. And it desired  nothing but to join with him and to be free again, as once it was. It
Tx:21.52  lies in the other Self you have cut off from your awareness. And  nothing you have allowed to stay in it is capable of reason. How can
Tx:21.63  can there be that stands between what is continuous? And if there is  nothing in between, how can what enters part be kept away from other
Tx:21.83  changing, now this, now that, and now an elusive shadow attached to  nothing, he does decide against it.
Tx:21.87  for it desires that everything be like itself and sees it so.  Nothing has power to confound its constancy because its own desire
Tx:21.90  of your desire for what will never change. For you have asked that  nothing stand between the holiness of your relationship and your
Tx:22.2  himself and rob the other. They stay until they think there's  nothing left to steal and then move on. And so they wander through a
Tx:22.3  selves, for differences are only of the body. Therefore, he looks on  nothing he would take. He denies not his own reality, because it is
Tx:22.13 Be certain God did not entrust His Son to the unworthy.  Nothing but what is part of Him is worthy of being joined. Nor is it
Tx:22.20  was given to the Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom  nothing He wills can be impossible, the means for its attainment
Tx:22.25  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 be
Tx:22.33  beyond the granite block of sin and stopping at the outside form of  nothing. To this distorted form of vision, the outside of everything,
Tx:22.33  truly? It is held back by form, having been made to guarantee that  nothing else but form will be perceived.
Tx:22.34  they stop at nothingness, unable to go beyond the form to meaning.  Nothing so blinding as perception of form. For sight of form means
Tx:22.39  uphold it cannot be undone. Your way is decided. There will be  nothing you will not be told if you acknowledge this.
Tx:22.45  The opposition comes from them and not reality. Reality opposes  nothing. What merely is needs no defense and offers none. Only
Tx:22.46  return. Yet how can peace be so fragmented? It is still whole, and  nothing has been taken from it.
Tx:22.47 See how the means and the material of evil dreams are  nothing. In truth you stand together with nothing in between. God
Tx:22.47  of evil dreams are nothing. In truth you stand together with  nothing in between. God holds your hands, and what can separate whom
Tx:22.50  must be convinced, in spite of what you thought it was, that it is  nothing. If you forgive each other, this must happen. For it is
Tx:22.54  means for His own plan. Be thankful that it serves yours not at all.  Nothing entrusted to it can be misused, and nothing given it but will
Tx:22.54  serves yours not at all. Nothing entrusted to it can be misused, and  nothing given it but will be used. This holy relationship has the
Tx:22.57  other with complete forgiveness from which no error is excluded and  nothing kept hidden what mistake can there be anywhere you cannot
Tx:22.57  a shadow through which you walk completely undismayed? God would let  nothing interfere with those whose wills are His[. And they will
Tx:23.1  of frailty and weakness is sinlessness? Innocence is strength, and  nothing else is strong. The sinless cannot fear, for sin of any kind
Tx:23.3  no evil. The innocent are safe because they share their innocence.  Nothing they see is harmful, for their awareness of the truth
Tx:23.6  Nothing around you but is part of you. Look on it lovingly, and see
Tx:23.9  it. And yet illusions cannot join. They are the same, and they are  nothing. Their joining lies in nothingness; two are as meaningless as
Tx:23.9  two are as meaningless as one or as a thousand. The ego joins with  nothing, being nothing. The victory it seeks is meaningless as is
Tx:23.9  as one or as a thousand. The ego joins with nothing, being  nothing. The victory it seeks is meaningless as is itself.
Tx:23.14  forces. It cannot exist between one power and nothingness. There is  nothing you could attack that is not part of you. And by attacking
Tx:23.14  is fearful, for it is the birth of fear. Yet what is born of  nothing cannot win reality through battle. Why would you fill your
Tx:23.17  grows dim, the temple of the Holy One becomes a house of sin. And  nothing is remembered except illusions. Illusions can conflict
Tx:23.19  Here are the laws that rule the world you made. And yet they govern  nothing and need not be broken; merely looked upon and gone beyond.
Tx:23.21  truth instead of to each other, they merely disappear. No part of  nothing can be more resistant to the truth than can another.
Tx:23.42  An empty box, however beautiful and gently given, still contains  nothing. And neither the receiver nor the giver is long deceived.
Tx:23.42  forgiveness from your brother, and you attack him. You give him  nothing and receive of him but what you gave.
Tx:23.43  you want—to take a little and give up the rest. Salvation gives up  nothing. It is complete for everyone. Let the idea of compromise but
Tx:23.54  their Father's purpose and who know that it is theirs! They want for  nothing. Sorrow of any kind is inconceivable. Only the light they
Tx:24.6 What God created cannot be attacked, for there is  nothing in the universe unlike itself. But what is different calls
Tx:24.6  call it “friend.” On its behalf they fight against the universe, for  nothing in the world they value more.
Tx:24.17  was, nor hear what makes no sound. Is it a sacrifice to give up  nothing and to receive the love of God forever?
Tx:24.20  in silent blessing and in peace so real and so encompassing that  nothing stands outside. Leave all illusions of yourself outside this
Tx:24.24  enter and a hiding-place where none is welcome but your tiny self.  Nothing is sacred here but unto you and you alone, apart and separate
Tx:24.28  in you. It can be thrown off balance by anything. What rests on  nothing never can be stable. However large and overblown it seems
Tx:24.29 Without foundation  nothing is secure. Would God have left His Son in such a state, where
Tx:24.29  that walks and breathes or creeps or crawls or even lives at all.  Nothing is safe from its attack, and it is safe from nothing. It will
Tx:24.29  lives at all. Nothing is safe from its attack, and it is safe from  nothing. It will forever more be unforgiving, for that is what it
Tx:24.32  to come forth and waken from their dream of death. Yet they hear  nothing. They are lost in dreams of specialness. They hate the call
Tx:24.35  and body states must shift accordingly. Of itself the body can do  nothing. See it as means to hurt, and it is hurt. See it as means to
Tx:24.36  limited; so must it be that harmful purpose hurts the mind as one.  Nothing could make less sense to specialness. Nothing could make
Tx:24.36  the mind as one. Nothing could make less sense to specialness.  Nothing could make more sense to miracles. For miracles are merely
Tx:24.41  a thread from here, a scrap from there, and wove a picture out of  nothing. For the parts do not belong together, and the whole
Tx:24.41  For the parts do not belong together, and the whole contributes  nothing to the parts to give them meaning.
Tx:24.42  him, showing him what can be seen and heard and where he will see  nothing and there is no sound to hear.
Tx:24.50  For what God wills is whole and part of Him because His Will is One.  Nothing alive that is not part of Him, and nothing is but is alive
Tx:24.50  because His Will is One. Nothing alive that is not part of Him, and  nothing is but is alive in Him. Your brother's holiness shows you
Tx:24.51  Nothing is lost to you in all the universe. Nothing that God created
Tx:24.51 Nothing is lost to you in all the universe.  Nothing that God created has He failed to lay before you lovingly as
Tx:24.59  stands for you alone, as self-created, self-maintained, in need of  nothing, and unjoined with anything beyond the body. In its eyes, you
Tx:24.62  he wants to be the truth! His wish is law unto him, and he obeys.  Nothing his specialness demands does he withhold. Nothing it needs
Tx:24.62  him, and he obeys. Nothing his specialness demands does he withhold.  Nothing it needs does he deny to what he loves. And while it calls to
Tx:24.63  the deep concern, the powerful conviction this is you belong to him.  Nothing you gave to specialness but is his due. And nothing due him
Tx:24.63  belong to him. Nothing you gave to specialness but is his due. And  nothing due him is not due to you.
Tx:24.66  its safety rests secure. If not, it has no purpose and is means for  nothing. Whatever is perceived as means for truth shares in its
Tx:24.68  like Himself. A perfect being, all-encompassing and all-encompassed,  nothing to add and nothing taken from—not born of size nor weight
Tx:24.68  being, all-encompassing and all-encompassed, nothing to add and  nothing taken from—not born of size nor weight nor time nor held to
Tx:25.3  His light and fills it with the holiness that shines from Him. And  nothing that the body says or does but makes Him manifest. To those
Tx:25.7  it to the light. The veil is lifted through its gentleness, and  nothing hides the face of Christ from its beholders. And both of you
Tx:25.21  the Holy Spirit what He offers unto the Father and the Son alike.  Nothing has power over you except His Will and yours, who but extend
Tx:25.23  to this world of God's more basic law that love creates itself and  nothing but itself.
Tx:25.26  its goal with His Creator's purpose. In His perception of the world,  nothing is seen but justifies forgiveness and the sight of perfect
Tx:25.26  seen but justifies forgiveness and the sight of perfect sinlessness.  Nothing arises but is met with instant and complete forgiveness.
Tx:25.27  Nothing remains an instant to obscure the sinlessness that shines
Tx:25.28  a misperception be a sin? Let all your brother's errors be to you  nothing except a chance for you to see the workings of the Helper
Tx:25.33  sin will bring you joy, so long will they be there for you to see.  Nothing is harmful or beneficent apart from what you wish. It is your
Tx:25.36  Heaven be restored to him for whom it was created as his only home?  Nothing before and nothing after it. No other place, no other state
Tx:25.36  to him for whom it was created as his only home? Nothing before and  nothing after it. No other place, no other state nor time. Nothing
Tx:25.36  and nothing after it. No other place, no other state nor time.  Nothing beyond nor nearer. Nothing else. In any form. This can you
Tx:25.36  No other place, no other state nor time. Nothing beyond nor nearer.  Nothing else. In any form. This can you bring to all the world and
Tx:25.43  they look on speaks of Him to the beholder. He can see no evil,  nothing in the world to fear, and no one who is different from
Tx:25.48  its laws are not imposed on you; its values are not yours. [And  nothing that you think you see in it is really there at all.] And
Tx:25.51  for you. For it is this that you do not believe. Yet there is  nothing else you could believe if you but looked at what it really
Tx:25.52  Not one Thought of His makes any sense at all within this world. And  nothing that the world believes as true has any meaning in His Mind
Tx:25.54  perception can be based, another world perceived. And one in which  nothing is contradicted that would lead the Son of God to sanity and
Tx:25.54  is contradicted that would lead the Son of God to sanity and joy.  Nothing attests to death and cruelty, to separation, and to
Tx:25.55  everything that meets this one demand is worthy of your faith. But  nothing else. What is not love is sin, and either one perceives the
Tx:25.63  is necessary to add to the idea no one can lose for you to gain. And  nothing more.
Tx:25.65 There is a kind of justice in salvation of which the world knows  nothing. To the world, justice and vengeance are the same, for
Tx:25.77  all the Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your special function shows you  nothing else but perfect justice can prevail for you. And you are
Tx:25.79  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:26.1  of him and sacrifice the rest. Look at the world, and you will see  nothing attached to anything beyond itself. All seeming entities can
Tx:26.17  that is belongs to Him and will forever be as He created it.  Nothing He loves but must be sinless and beyond attack. Your special
Tx:26.18  of one creation, one reality, one truth, and but one Son.  Nothing conflicts with oneness. How, then, could there be complexity
Tx:26.18  where oneness is? The truth makes no decisions, for there is  nothing to decide between. And only if there were could choosing be
Tx:26.18  in the advance toward oneness. What is everything leaves room for  nothing else.
Tx:26.21  Nothing the Son of God believes can be destroyed. But what is truth
Tx:26.25  from beyond the gate behind which total lack of limits lies.  Nothing in boundless love could need forgiveness. And what is charity
Tx:26.25  Forgiveness thus becomes the means by which he learns he has done  nothing to forgive. Forgiveness always rests upon the one who offers
Tx:26.26  is totally forgiven. And what has been forgiven must join, for  nothing stands between to keep them separate and apart. The sinless
Tx:26.26  separate and apart. The sinless must perceive that they are one, for  nothing stands between to push the other off. And in the space which
Tx:26.30  ways. All learning is a help or hindrance to the gate of Heaven.  Nothing in between is possible. There are two teachers only, who
Tx:26.30  choose whether to go toward Heaven or away to nowhere. There is  nothing else to choose.
Tx:26.31  Nothing is ever lost but time, which in the end is [nothing. It] is
Tx:26.31  can achieve? Think not the way to Heaven's gate is difficult at all.  Nothing you undertake with certain purpose and high resolve and happy
Tx:26.31  to wander off, alone and miserable, down a road which leads to  nothing and which has no purpose.
Tx:26.44  an illusion and made it real. And it is real to you. It is not  nothing and through its perceived reality has entered all the world
Tx:26.53  Nothing gives meaning where no meaning is. And truth needs no
Tx:26.89  Presence of your holy Guests be known to you. And to this purpose,  nothing can be added, for the world is purposeless except for this.
Tx:27.6  he beholds in you. Here is the proof that he has never sinned—that  nothing which his madness bid him do was ever done or ever had
Tx:27.10  apart from all experience of fear or love. For now it witnesses to  nothing yet, its purpose being open and the mind made free again to
Tx:27.17  For here is his forgiveness proved to him. A miracle can offer  nothing less to him than it has given unto you. So does your healing
Tx:27.30  it canceled out, and so they both are gone. And now he stands for  nothing. Symbols which but represent ideas that cannot be must stand
Tx:27.31 The picture of your brother that you see means  nothing. There is nothing to attack or to deny, love, or hate, or to
Tx:27.31 The picture of your brother that you see means nothing. There is  nothing to attack or to deny, love, or hate, or to endow with power
Tx:27.32  no opposite is what creation is. For this there are no symbols.  Nothing points beyond the truth, for what can stand for more than
Tx:27.34  aid will merely be. Forgiveness vanishes and symbols fade, and  nothing which the eyes have ever seen or ears have heard remains to
Tx:27.35  without opposite. You do not know the peace of power which opposes  nothing. Yet no other kind can be at all. Give welcome to the Power
Tx:27.40  the questions. Where answers represent the questions, they add  nothing new, and nothing has been learned.
Tx:27.40  Where answers represent the questions, they add nothing new, and  nothing has been learned.
Tx:27.46  There is no sadness where a miracle has come to heal. And  nothing more than just one instant of your love without attack is
Tx:27.47  blessing, for the One Who blesses you loves all the world and leaves  nothing within the world that could be feared. But if you shrink from
Tx:27.48 Come to the holy instant and be healed, for  nothing that is there received is left behind on your returning to
Tx:27.54  because their purpose cannot be achieved. Thus are they means for  nothing, for they have a goal without a meaning. And they share the
Tx:27.56  for any one you choose is like the rest. This name or that, but  nothing more, you choose. You do not make a witness true because you
Tx:27.57  speak in other ways for its reality. He knows it is not real. For  nothing could contain what you believe it holds within. Nor could it
Tx:27.73  of the world of dreams. No other cause it has, nor ever will.  Nothing more fearful than an idle dream has terrified God's Son and
Tx:27.81  upon himself. No one believes there really was a time when he knew  nothing of a body and could never have conceived this world as real.
Tx:27.84  indeed. Yet they but follow. And it is their cause which follows  nothing and is but a jest.
Tx:28.1 The miracle does  nothing. All it does is to undo. And thus it cancels out the
Tx:28.3  Nothing employed for healing represents an effort to do anything at
Tx:28.6 Yet time is but another phase of what does  nothing. It works hand in hand with all the other attributes with
Tx:28.10  a lesson in allowing Cause to have Its own effects and doing  nothing that would interfere.
Tx:28.11  to other minds to share its quietness. And they will join in doing  nothing to prevent its radiant extension back into the mind Which
Tx:28.12  where They would abide. For in that instant does the Son of God do  nothing that would make himself afraid.
Tx:28.14  what he has made is causeless, making no effects at all. He has done  nothing. And in seeing this, he understands he never had a need for
Tx:28.18  unlike yourself. And as their “father,” you must be like them.  Nothing at all has happened but that you have put yourself to sleep
Tx:28.22  own attack, and he is innocent of what he caused. The miracle does  nothing but to show him that he has done nothing. What he fears is
Tx:28.22  he caused. The miracle does nothing but to show him that he has done  nothing. What he fears is cause without the consequences which would
Tx:28.26  that thought the body could be sick; projecting out its guilt caused  nothing and had no effects.
Tx:28.30 The miracle does  nothing just because the minds are joined and cannot separate. Yet
Tx:28.32  is only its effect. Yet separation is but empty space, enclosing  nothing, doing nothing, and as unsubstantial as the empty place
Tx:28.32  effect. Yet separation is but empty space, enclosing nothing, doing  nothing, and as unsubstantial as the empty place between the ripples
Tx:28.34  and who stored a heap of snow that shone like silver. They have  nothing left behind the open door. What is the world except a little
Tx:28.45  picture of God's Son! The forms the broken pieces seem to take mean  nothing. For the whole is in each one. And every aspect of the Son of
Tx:28.46  Father is. Who seeks for substitutes when he perceives he has lost  nothing? Who would want to have the “benefits” of sickness when he
Tx:28.47  is sharing Him. There is no other choice. Except you share it,  nothing can exist. And you exist because God shared His Will with
Tx:28.60 God asks for  nothing, and His Son, like Him, need ask for nothing. For there is no
Tx:28.60 God asks for nothing, and His Son, like Him, need ask for  nothing. For there is no lack in him. An empty space, a little gap,
Tx:29.1 There is no time, no place, no state where God is absent. There is  nothing to be feared. There is no way in which a gap could be
Tx:29.8  but its lack of strength or weakness. Would you recognize that  nothing stands between you? Would you know there is no gap behind
Tx:29.9 Yet all that happens when the gap is gone is peace eternal.  Nothing more than that, and nothing less. Without the fear of God,
Tx:29.9  when the gap is gone is peace eternal. Nothing more than that, and  nothing less. Without the fear of God, what could induce you to
Tx:29.10  to find yourself in Heaven and in God? Until you realize you give up  nothing, until you understand there is no loss, you will have some
Tx:29.15  God—His Son have life and every living thing be part of him, and  nothing else have life. What you have given “life” is not alive and
Tx:29.15  here, for on confusion has this world been based, and there is  nothing else it rests upon. Its basis does not change, although it
Tx:29.18  than it should be but only in your failure to perceive that it is  nothing. Yet its nothingness is your salvation, from which you would
Tx:29.32 The changelessness of Heaven is in you, so deep within that  nothing in this world but passes by, unnoticed and unseen. The still
Tx:29.32  embrace, so strong and quiet, tranquil in the might of its Creator;  nothing can intrude upon the sacred Son of God within. Here is the
Tx:29.32  he is his Father's Son and not for any purpose you may see in him.  Nothing is asked of you but to accept the changeless and eternal that
Tx:29.37  even though it was for this that every dream was made. Yet  nothing in the world of dreams remains without the hope of change and
Tx:29.40  Nothing survives its purpose. If it be conceived to die, then die it
Tx:29.42  need not let it stand for this to you. Let this be changed, and  nothing in the world but must be changed as well. For nothing here
Tx:29.42  changed, and nothing in the world but must be changed as well. For  nothing here but is defined as what you see it for. How lovely is the
Tx:29.56 What is an idol?  Nothing! It must be believed before it seems to come to life and
Tx:29.58  forever and has left no room for anything to be except His Will.  Nothing and nowhere must an idol be while God is everything and
Tx:30.31  It is but this agreement which permits all things to happen.  Nothing can be caused without some form of union, be it with a dream
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 freedom's name. Unless you
Tx:30.43  Nothing that God knows not exists. And what He knows exists forever,
Tx:30.48  a thing apart from you and in a world which your reality knows  nothing of? Outside you there is no eternal sky, no changeless star,
Tx:30.53  Attack has power to make illusions real. Yet what it makes is  nothing. Who could be made fearful by a power that can have no real
Tx:30.61  the mind can let them go when it has understood that idols are  nothing and nowhere and are purposeless. For only then can guilt and
Tx:30.86  things have but one purpose which you share with all the world. And  nothing in the world can be opposed to it, for it belongs to
Tx:30.88 Do not interpret out of solitude, for what you see means  nothing. It will shift in what it stands for, and you will believe
Tx:30.91  those you would not want to have reality. Temptation, then, is  nothing more than this—a prayer the miracle touch not some dreams
Tx:31.3  power in the world. The world was made by it and even now depends on  nothing else. The lessons you have taught yourselves have been so
Tx:31.8  everything is lit with hope and sparkles with a gentle friendliness.  Nothing but calls to you in soft appeal to be your friend and let it
Tx:31.22  no assault upon your wish to hear a call that never has been made.  Nothing will hurt you in this holy place to which you come to listen
Tx:31.28  is not seen to be a passive thing, obeying your commands and doing  nothing of itself at all. If you are sin you are a body, for the
Tx:31.30  guilt rules and orders that the world be like itself—a place where  nothing can find mercy or survive the ravages of fear except in
Tx:31.56  find the answer to the riddle of himself. Salvation can be seen as  nothing more than the escape from concepts. It does not concern
Tx:31.57  yourself. The concept of the self embraces all you look upon, and  nothing is outside of this perception. If you can be hurt by
Tx:31.57  can be hurt by anything, you see a picture of your secret wishes.  Nothing more than this. And in your suffering of any kind, you see
Tx:31.67  worthy of your trust; a happy place to rest in for a while, where  nothing need be feared but only loved. Who is unwelcome to the kind
Tx:31.74  which dims your sight and warps your vision, so that you behold  nothing with clarity. The light is kept from everything you see. At
Tx:31.75  of himself in him. Thus is the concept of himself laid by, for  nothing stands between his sight and what he looks upon to judge what
Tx:31.81  hope except to die and end the dream of fear. This is temptation,  nothing more than this. Can this be difficult to choose against?
Tx:31.90 I am as God created me. His Son can suffer  nothing. And I am His Son.
Tx:31.91  are false distinctions gone, illusory alternatives laid by, and  nothing left to interfere with truth.
Tx:31.93  do not fail to hear my voice and listen to my words. I ask for  nothing but your own release. There is no place for hell within a
W1:I.1  which will make the goal possible. An untrained mind can accomplish  nothing. It is the purpose of these exercises to train the mind to
W1:I.5  contain. Whatever your reactions to the ideas may be, use them.  Nothing more than this is required.
W1:1.5  for these exercises should not become ritualistic. Only be sure that  nothing you see is specifically excluded. One thing is like another
W1:2.2  it. Make no attempt to include anything particular, but be sure that  nothing is specifically excluded.
W1:7.2 It is the reason why  nothing that you see means anything.
W1:7.12 Do not linger over any one thing in particular, but remember to omit  nothing specifically. Glance briefly at each subject, and then move
W1:9.3  its indiscriminate application and the essential rule of excluding  nothing. For example:
W1:13.1  to the emotion aroused. Actually, a meaningless world is impossible.  Nothing without meaning exists. However, it does not follow that you
W1:14.1  that does exist exists as He created it. The world you see has  nothing to do with reality. It is of your own making, and it does not
W1:15.1  think you think appear as images that you do not recognize them as  nothing. You think you think them, and so you think you see them.
W1:16.2  the truth or it multiplies illusions. You can indeed multiply  nothing, but you will not extend it by doing so.
W1:21.2  will become increasingly aware that a slight twinge of annoyance is  nothing but a veil drawn over intense fury.
W1:21.3  that you do not really recognize what arouses anger in you, and  nothing that you believe in this connection means anything. You will
W1:22.4 I see only the perishable. I see  nothing that will last. What I see is not real. What I see is a form
W1:23.1  for today contains the only way out of fear that will ever succeed.  Nothing else will work; everything else is meaningless. But this way
W1:24.8  you are making a large number of demands of the situation which have  nothing to do with it. You will also recognize that many of your
W1:25.1 Purpose is meaning. Today's idea explains why  nothing you see means anything. You do not know what it is for.
W1:25.2  in it as meaningful in terms of ego goals. These goals have  nothing to do with your own best interests, because the ego is not
W1:25.3  you have no personal interests, your goals are really concerned with  nothing. In cherishing them, therefore, you have no goals at all. And
W1:26.4  vulnerability or invulnerability is the result of your own thoughts.  Nothing except your thoughts can attack you. Nothing except your
W1:26.4  of your own thoughts. Nothing except your thoughts can attack you.  Nothing except your thoughts can make you think you are vulnerable.
W1:26.4  except your thoughts can make you think you are vulnerable. And  nothing except your thoughts can prove to you this is not so.
W1:29.1  explains why you can see all purpose in anything. It explains why  nothing is separate, by itself or in itself. And it explains why
W1:29.1  why nothing is separate, by itself or in itself. And it explains why  nothing you see means anything. In fact, it explains every idea we
W1:29.3  You do not see them now. Would you know what is in them?  Nothing is as it appears to you. Its holy purpose stands beyond your
W1:35.10  longer exercise periods, there will probably be intervals in which  nothing specific occurs to you. Do not strain to think up specific
W1:35.10  repeat today's idea slowly until something occurs to you. Although  nothing that does occur should be omitted from the exercises, nothing
W1:35.10  nothing that does occur should be omitted from the exercises,  nothing should be “dug out” with effort. Neither force nor
W1:35.11  them, adding the idea to each of them in the form stated above. If  nothing particular occurs to you, merely repeat the idea to yourself
W1:37.1  holiness. Thus are you and the world blessed together. No one loses;  nothing is taken away from anyone; everyone gains through your holy
W1:37.2  awareness through your vision. Your holiness blesses him by asking  nothing of him. Those who see themselves as whole make no demands.
W1:38.1  your holiness the power of God is made available. And there is  nothing the power of God cannot do.
W1:38.5 In the situation involving ______ in which I see myself, there is  nothing that my holiness cannot do. In the situation involving
W1:38.5  the situation involving ______ in which _____ sees himself, there is  nothing my holiness cannot do.
W1:38.7 There is  nothing my holiness cannot do because the power of God lies in it.
W1:38.8  appeal to you, but keep the exercises focused on the theme “There is  nothing my holiness cannot do.” The purpose of today's exercises is
W1:41.3  alone because the Source of all life goes with you wherever you go.  Nothing can destroy your peace of mind because God goes with you
W1:42.4  and repeat the idea again, quite slowly. After this, try to think of  nothing except thoughts which occur to you in relation to today's
W1:42.9  teaching you that we are studying a unified thought system in which  nothing is lacking that is needed, and nothing is included that is
W1:42.9  thought system in which nothing is lacking that is needed, and  nothing is included that is contradictory or irrelevant.
W1:45.1 Today's idea holds the key to what your real thoughts are. They are  nothing that you think you think, just as nothing that you think you
W1:45.1  thoughts are. They are nothing that you think you think, just as  nothing that you think you see is related to vision in any way. There
W1:45.1  is no relationship between what is real and what you think is real.  Nothing that you think are your real thoughts resembles your real
W1:45.1  are your real thoughts resembles your real thoughts in any respect.  Nothing that you think you see bears any resemblance to what vision
W1:47.8  in you where there is perfect peace. There is a place in you where  nothing is impossible. There is a place in you where the strength of
W1:48.1  believe in illusions, but illusions are not facts. In truth there is  nothing to fear. It is very easy to recognize this. But it is very
W1:48.3  you are trusting in your own strength. The awareness that there is  nothing to fear shows that somewhere in your mind, not necessarily in
W1:48.3  of yours. The instant you are willing to do this, there is indeed  nothing to fear.
W1:50.2  peace and safety. It will transport you into a state of mind which  nothing can threaten, nothing can disturb, and where nothing can
W1:50.2  will transport you into a state of mind which nothing can threaten,  nothing can disturb, and where nothing can intrude upon the eternal
W1:50.2  of mind which nothing can threaten, nothing can disturb, and where  nothing can intrude upon the eternal calm of the Son of God.
W1:51.2 [1]  Nothing I see means anything. The reason this is so is that I see
W1:51.2  Nothing I see means anything. The reason this is so is that I see  nothing, and nothing has no meaning. It is necessary that I recognize
W1:51.2  means anything. The reason this is so is that I see nothing, and  nothing has no meaning. It is necessary that I recognize this, that I
W1:52.2  I have given them reality and thus regard reality as an illusion.  Nothing in God's creation is affected in any way by this confusion of
W1:52.2  affected in any way by this confusion of mine. I am always upset by  nothing.
W1:52.4  to give the past away, realizing that in so doing I am giving up  nothing.
W1:52.5 [9] I see  nothing as it is now. If I see nothing as it is now, it can truly be
W1:52.5 [9] I see nothing as it is now. If I see  nothing as it is now, it can truly be said that I see nothing. I can
W1:52.5  now. If I see nothing as it is now, it can truly be said that I see  nothing. I can see only what is now. The choice is not whether to see
W1:52.6  What can these thoughts mean? They do not exist, and so they mean  nothing. Yet my mind is part of creation and part of its Creator.
W1:53.4  it is completely undependable and offers no grounds for trust.  Nothing in madness is dependable. It holds out no safety and no hope.
W1:54.4  form the basis of the world I see. Yet that sharing was a sharing of  nothing. I can also call upon my real thoughts, which share
W1:54.5  not alone in experiencing the effects of my thoughts. I am alone in  nothing. Everything I think or say or do touches all the universe. A
W1:57.2  so. The prison door is open. I can leave it simply by walking out.  Nothing holds me in this world. Only my wish to stay keeps me a
W1:58.3  I see in its light shares in the joy it brings to me. There is  nothing that is apart from this joy because there is nothing that
W1:58.3  to me. There is nothing that is apart from this joy because there is  nothing that does not share my holiness. As I recognize my holiness,
W1:58.4 [38] There is  nothing my holiness cannot do. My holiness is unlimited in its power
W1:58.5  the salvation of the world. Once I have accepted my holiness,  nothing can make me afraid. And because I am unafraid, everyone must
W1:60.2  cannot blame, and those who have accepted their innocence see  nothing to forgive. Yet forgiveness is the means by which I will
W1:60.4 [48] There is  nothing to fear. How safe the world will look to me when I can see
W1:64.2  Nothing the body's eyes seem to see can be anything but a form of
W1:64.10  reviewing these thoughts and then to thinking about them and about  nothing else. This will be difficult at first particularly, since you
W1:68.9  over you, and holding you up. Try to believe, however briefly, that  nothing can harm you in any way. At the end of the practice period
W1:70.1 All temptation is  nothing more than some form of the basic temptation not to believe
W1:70.2 The seeming “cost” of accepting today's idea is this: it means that  nothing outside yourself can save you; nothing outside yourself can
W1:70.2  idea is this: it means that nothing outside yourself can save you;  nothing outside yourself can give you peace. But it also means that
W1:70.2  nothing outside yourself can give you peace. But it also means that  nothing outside yourself can hurt you or disturb your peace or upset
W1:70.8  a statement signifying your recognition that salvation comes from  nothing outside of you. You might put it this way:
W1:70.14  today, remind yourself that your salvation comes from you and  nothing but your own thoughts can hamper your progress. You are free
W1:70.15 My salvation comes from me.  Nothing outside of me can hold me back. Within me is the world's
W1:72.7  of what the body offers. Take the little you can get. God gave you  nothing. The body is your only savior. It is the death of God and
W1:73.1  strong. But they are idle indeed in terms of creation. They make  nothing that is real.
W1:73.9  ego which stands powerless before your will. Your will is free, and  nothing can prevail against it. Therefore we undertake the exercises

W1:95.10  you have merely made a mistake. This calls for correction and for  nothing else.
W1:95.12 This is the truth, and  nothing else is true. Today we will affirm this truth again and try

W1:102.2  accomplish anything. It cannot purchase anything at all. It offers  nothing and does not exist. And everything you think it offers you is

W1:R3.4  periods to be replacements for your litanies to them. They gave you  nothing. But your practicing can offer everything to you. And so

W1:192.7  with thanks, and joyously accepted? We are one and therefore give up  nothing. But we have indeed been given everything by God. Yet do we
W1:195.3  your peace, a plunderer who takes his joy from you and leaves you  nothing but a black despair so bitter and relentless that there is no

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 hell where it is
W2:I.7  Father and the Son, Whose holy will created all that is, can fail in  nothing. In this certainty, we undertake these last few steps to You
W2:WF.4 Forgiveness, on the other hand, is still and quietly does  nothing. It offends no aspect of reality nor seeks to twist it to

W2:226.1  remain for me. But if I see no value in the world as I behold it,  nothing that I want to keep as mine or search for as a goal, it will
W2:227.1  free because my will is Yours. I thought to make another will. Yet  nothing that I thought apart from You exists. And I am free because I
W2:WS.3 Salvation is undoing in the sense that it does  nothing, failing to support the world of dreams and malice. Thus it
W2:231.1  Yet is Your Love the only thing I seek or ever sought. For there is  nothing else that I could ever really want to find. Let me remember
W2:234.1  continuity nor break in thoughts which are forever unified as one.  Nothing has ever happened to disturb the peace of God the Father and
W2:WIS.1  is not to know. And truth can be but filled with knowledge and with  nothing else.

W2:269.1  of Christ and teaches me that what I look upon belongs to me, that  nothing is except Your holy Son.
W2:WIC.5  at last? So therefore let us seek to find Christ's face and look on  nothing else. As we behold His glory will we know we have no need of

W2:273.1  with certainty, “The stillness of the peace of God is mine,” and  nothing can intrude upon the peace that God Himself has given to His
W2:275.2  today, and so I leave all things to You. I need be anxious over  nothing. For Your Voice will tell me what to do and where to go, to
W2:278.2 Father, I ask for  nothing but the truth. I have had many foolish thoughts about myself
W2:281.1  of where Your Thoughts belong and where They are. I can be hurt by  nothing but my thoughts. The thoughts I think with You can only

W2:290.1  instant longer. This the day I seek my present happiness and look on  nothing else except the thing I seek.
W2:WIRW.2  world seen differently, through quiet eyes and with a mind at peace.  Nothing but rest is there. There are no cries of pain and sorrow
W2:WIRW.2  but rest is there. There are no cries of pain and sorrow heard, for  nothing here remains outside forgiveness. And the sights are gentle.
W2:302.2  as we go to Him and walks beside us, showing us the way. He fails in  nothing. He the end we seek, and He the means by which we come to Him.
W2:307.1  is impossible. Your Son is one with You in being and in will, and  nothing contradicts the holy truth that I remain as You created me.
W2:322.1 I sacrifice illusions,  nothing more. And as illusions go, I find the gifts illusions tried
W2:322.2  cannot sacrifice except in dreams. As You created me, I can give up  nothing You gave me. What You did not give has no reality. What loss
W2:328.2 There is no will but Yours. And I am glad that  nothing I imagine contradicts what You would have me be. It is Your
W2:334.2 I seek but the eternal. For Your Son can be content with  nothing less than this. What then can be his solace but what You are
W2:337.1  do to know all this is mine? I must accept Atonement for myself and  nothing more. God has already done all things that need be done. And
W2:337.1  done all things that need be done. And I must learn I need do  nothing of myself, for I need but accept my Self, my sinlessness,
W2:338.1  at last from fear. Now he has learned that no one frightens him and  nothing can endanger him. He has no enemies, and he is safe from all
W2:339.2 Father, this is Your day. It is a day in which I would do  nothing by myself but hear Your Voice in everything I do; requesting
W2:344.1  upon the treasure that I thought I had, I found an empty place where  nothing ever was or is or will be. Who can share a dream? And what
W2:346.2 And when the evening comes today, we will remember  nothing but the peace of God. For we will learn today what peace is
W2:353.1  in any way that best will serve the purpose that I share with Him.  Nothing is mine alone, for He and I have joined in purpose. Thus has
W2:358.1  to Your Son in my awareness always. Let me not forget myself is  nothing, but my Self is all.
W2:FL.5  We have been saved from wrath because we learned we were mistaken.  Nothing more than that. And is a father angry at his son because he

M:4.11  only to what you say. The term actually means consistency. There is  nothing you say that contradicts what you think or do; no thought
M:4.14  at all except by those who realize that harm can actually achieve  nothing. No gain can come of it.

M:6.1  so deep that the patient might even try to destroy himself. Having  nothing to live for, he may ask for death. Healing must wait, for his
M:10.5  merely stagger and fall down beneath it. And it was all illusion.  Nothing more. Now can the teacher of God rise up unburdened and walk
M:12.2  the Son of God. It is not really a change; it is a change of mind.  Nothing external alters, but everything internal now reflects only
M:13.1  lesson. Like all lessons, it is an illusion, for in reality there is  nothing to learn. Yet this illusion must be replaced by a corrective
M:13.1  What could this be but an illusion, since this world itself is  nothing more than that?
M:13.2  learning both to realize and to accept the fact that the world has  nothing to give. What can the sacrifice of nothing mean? It cannot

M:19.5  evidence that is brought before it, omitting nothing and assessing  nothing as separate and apart from all the rest. From this one

C:20.39  All that is received is for the mutual benefit of all and takes  nothing away from anyone. There is no limit to love and so there are

C:30.4 Being in relationship is being present. Being present has  nothing to do with time as you think of it. You think of this
C:30.4  keeping time as well, but as the word keeping illustrates, there is  nothing about time that can be kept. The only thing real about time
C:31.13  you are devoted to the thoughts of a split mind you are devoted to  nothing. This is why so many attempts at understanding fail. Trying

C:31.20  nothing to be ashamed of, nothing to keep hidden, leaving you with  nothing but the truth of who you are. Thus, what you give through
C:31.26 Your past has  nothing to do with the truth about who you are, except in the degree
C:31.28  Since there is only one truth, finding a variety of answers means  nothing. If you but change what you look for, what you see and what

T1:3.3 The ego-mind sees  nothing for what it is. The ego-mind sees not anything but what it
T1:3.23  surely the working of one miracle would be a fluke anyway. Proof of  nothing and easily discounted and explained away. Surely to believe
T1:4.20  come to you from an interpretation that is uniquely your own is as  nothing compared to the joy that will come to you from a response
T1:4.26  thought, for doubt about your Self is doubt about God. While God is  nothing but the Source of Love, you have, in your doubt, made of God
T1:4.27  or being. I bring up this point to assure you that this confusion is  nothing new, but a confusion so deeply ingrained in you that it has
T1:5.5  of Life, fear of Creation, fear of Self. For there is only all and  nothing.
T1:5.6  of this and as fearful of the all of everything as of the void of  nothing. You feel as if you are headed toward “something” from
T1:5.7  as the illusion of an in-between you have created between all and  nothing. This in-between place is your comfort zone and, although you

T1:5.8  to experience the truth, you must move into a state that is real.  Nothing is as real as everything, and is what some of you will or
T1:5.9  turn within, toward the heart where the real Self abides. There is  nothing else that will free who you are but freedom from the ego's
T1:9.6  universal truth. You remembered that something does not come from  nothing and that nothing is all that exists without relationship.

T2:6.5  as all of your work being done. If there is no work to be done,  nothing for you to do, for what do you need time? Have you ever
T2:7.13  as one if you feel able only to give or as if “others” have  nothing you would receive.
T2:8.3  others. This is giving and receiving as one. What you gain will take  nothing from anyone. What another is able to give you will take
T2:8.3  take nothing from anyone. What another is able to give you will take  nothing from them, and what you are able to give another will take
T2:8.3  nothing from them, and what you are able to give another will take  nothing from you.

T3:4.2  that you give up anything but illusion, which is the giving up of  nothing.
T3:10.1  talked much of remembering. Now we must talk about forgetting. While  nothing need be given up to enter the House of Truth, or to encounter

T3:14.5  changes will not cause them to be other than who they are. There is  nothing wrong with who you are!

T3:20.19  you will encounter. You will encounter truth or illusion and  nothing else for there is nothing else. There is but one call for all
T3:20.19  You will encounter truth or illusion and nothing else for there is  nothing else. There is but one call for all circumstances, the call
T3:21.9  to another. Illusion is symbolic. And what's more it symbolizes  nothing for it does not symbolize what is!

T4:1.26 Those born into the time of Christ will settle for  nothing less than the truth and will soon begin looking earnestly for
T4:2.26  in which observation of what is can occur. The separated state was  nothing more than the disjoining of heart and mind, a state in which
T4:5.13  Some have thought of this as heaven and hell. Others as all or  nothing. Many of you have thought of it as a time of judgment. But I
T4:8.16 You think of a state of knowing as a state of there being  nothing you do not know about something. This is why you study

T4:9.5  but in different ways. There seems to be nothing new to be said,  nothing to move you beyond this point that you have reached in your
T4:9.9  the new. Be not afraid, for the glory that has been yours will be as  nothing to the glory that awaits you in the creation of the new. You

D:Day3.59  all that was taught within this Course, this is a matter of all or  nothing. You cannot accept part of one reality and part of another.

D:Day7.3  with love. Love is life giving and life supporting. There is thus  nothing now degenerating about life.

D:Day9.27  Nothing, not even the ego, has been able to keep you from expressing
D:Day11.3 The elevation of the self of form is  nothing but the recognition of the One Self within the Self.
D:Day11.6 Separation, of itself, is  nothing. What is separate and joined in relationship is All because

D:Day15.23  To practice, as to inform, does not mean, however, that you know  nothing. Practice is the merging of the known and the unknown through
D:Day15.23  the continuing realization that what you knew yesterday was as  nothing to what you know today, while at the same time, aiding in the

D:Day25.2  you, there is a part of you that will fight back. If there is  nothing new to record, nothing new to learn, no new divine
D:Day25.2  part of you that will fight back. If there is nothing new to record,  nothing new to learn, no new divine inspiration, a part of your mind

D:Day32.7 Another concept of God is that of Creator. This concept might have  nothing to do with the notion of God wanting to know Himself. This
D:Day34.2  simply does include destruction in much the same way all includes  nothing. Without relationship, all and nothing are the same. In
D:Day34.2  the same way all includes nothing. Without relationship, all and  nothing are the same. In relationship, the difference between all and

D:Day36.10  the difference in the world. It is the difference between all and  nothing in relationship to one another. Recall the example used
D:Day36.10  the example used earlier. There is no difference between all and  nothing without relationship. In relationship, the difference is
D:Day36.10  unity and relationship, it was as if God was everything and you were  nothing, or as if you were everything and God was nothing. But just
D:Day36.10  and you were nothing, or as if you were everything and God was  nothing. But just as with all and nothing, there was no difference
D:Day36.10  if you were everything and God was nothing. But just as with all and  nothing, there was no difference between your being and God's being
D:Day37.3  Thus the world does not exist without relationship—as  nothing exists without relationship. But relationship, like being and
D:Day39.38  and eternity. Love and hate. Good and evil. In other words, All and  Nothing. It is the tension of individuation, a tension that has
D:Day39.45  learning, only revelation. Do not expect all, without also expecting  nothing. Expect to know that you hold both within yourself and that
D:Day39.46  of these. You will know the All of Everything and the emptiness of  nothing and our relationship will bridge the distance and become
D:Day40.9 This tension, or process, is not bad. There is  nothing wrong with this individuation process or the creative tension
D:Day40.13  God would not know God. It is that which differentiates All from  nothing. Because it is that which differentiates, it is that which
D:Day40.14  that I am being God and also love, being. This is why I am all and  nothing, the attribute-laden God and the attributeless love. This is
E.1 Ah, imagine now what it will be like to have  nothing left to learn, nothing left to become. The pressure is off.

Tx:17.55  the purpose that has been accepted and the means as they stand  now which seems to make you suffer, but which makes Heaven glad. If

Tx:18.4  and subdivided and divided again, over and over, that it is  now almost impossible to perceive it once was one and still is what
Tx:18.27  is this world's light. And fear must disappear before you  now. Be tempted not to snatch away the gift of faith you offered to
Tx:18.28  reach it. And in your desire lies its accomplishment. Your desire is  now in complete accord with all the power of the Holy Spirit's will.
Tx:18.30 You who are  now the bringers of salvation have the function of bringing light to

Tx:19.27  appeal. And suddenly you change its status from a sin to a mistake.  Now you will not repeat it; you will merely stop and let it go unless
Tx:19.33  to Him and to each other. Your holy relationship has as its purpose  now the goal of proving this is impossible. Heaven has smiled upon
Tx:19.36  have you look upon each other as yourself. Your relationship is  now a temple of healing—a place where all the weary ones can come
Tx:19.38  in Him. He answered you and entered your relationship. Would you not  now return His graciousness and enter into a relationship with Him?
Tx:19.45  knows you well, as you know Heaven. No illusions stand between you  now. Look not upon the little wall of shadows. The sun has risen
Tx:19.46  can land and settle briefly upon anything, for it has no purpose  now. Before the Holy Spirit entered to abide with you, it seemed to

Tx:19.95 And  now you stand in terror before what you swore never to look upon.

Tx:20.9  And what enables Him to see His purpose shine forth from every altar  now is yours as well as His. He sees no strangers, only dearly loved
Tx:20.11 You have the vision  now to look past all illusions. It has been given you to see no

Tx:20.12  to hear. You heard but knew not how to look nor where. And  now you know. In you the knowledge lies, ready to be unveiled and

Tx:20.20  indeed be fearful. Yet it was you who made it merciless, and  now if mercilessness seems to look back at you, it can be corrected.
Tx:20.26  us become impossible. You who were prisoners in separation are  now made free in Paradise. And here would I unite with you, my
Tx:20.27  And where else would they go but where they will to be? Each of you  now will lead the other to the Father as surely as God created His
Tx:20.33  enter here to learn its special function in the Holy Spirit's plan,  now that it shares His purpose. And as this purpose is fulfilled, a
Tx:20.44  rests in his gentle hands in safety and in peace. Let us consider  now what he must learn, to share his Father's confidence in him. What
Tx:20.56  but you are not immobilized. The holy instant is of greater value  now to you than its unholy seeming counterpart, and you have learned
Tx:20.59  the sudden change in a relationship from sin to holiness should  now be almost over. To the extent you still experience it, you are
Tx:20.67  Vision would not be necessary had judgment not been made. Desire  now its whole undoing, and it is done for you.
Tx:20.70  what God willed and gave you shall be yours. This is your purpose  now, and the vision that makes it yours is ready to be given. You
Tx:21.7  have. Listen and try to think if you remember what we will speak of  now.
Tx:21.12 And  now the blind can see, for that same song they sing in honor of their
Tx:21.13  Rejected yes, but not ambiguous. And if you choose against it  now, it will not be because it is obscure, but rather that this
Tx:21.18  then, this little offering. Withhold it, and you keep the world as  now you see it. Give it away, and everything you see goes with it.
Tx:21.25  confusion of cause and effect becomes inevitable. The purpose  now becomes to keep obscure the cause of the effect and make effect
Tx:21.35  to vision, as all the means that once served sin are redirected  now toward holiness. For what you think is sin is limitation, and
Tx:21.40  You gave perception and belief and faith from mind to body. Let them  now be given back to what produced them and can use them still to
Tx:21.43  “fearful” question is one the ego never asks. And you who ask it  now are threatening the ego's whole defensive system too seriously
Tx:21.43  And your belief in sin has been already shaken, nor are you  now entirely unwilling to look within and see it not.
Tx:21.44  past insanity and on to reason. And what your reason tells you  now, the ego would not hear. The Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted
Tx:21.44  knows not of. No more did you. And yet this part with which you  now identify is not afraid to look upon itself. It knows no sin.
Tx:21.45  the birth of freedom, the acceptance of release to come to you. And  now you recognize that it was not the ego that joined the Holy
Tx:21.47 And  now the ego is afraid. Yet what it hears in terror, the other part
Tx:21.47  world, brings to it hope of peace. For it remembers Heaven, and  now it sees that Heaven has come to earth at last, from which the
Tx:21.58  which the ego will never ask. Does not your reason tell you  now the question must have come from something that you do not know
Tx:21.83  not see he does it. And if he sees his happiness as ever changing,  now this, now that, and now an elusive shadow attached to nothing, he
Tx:21.83  he does it. And if he sees his happiness as ever changing, now this,  now that, and now an elusive shadow attached to nothing, he does
Tx:21.83  if he sees his happiness as ever changing, now this, now that, and  now an elusive shadow attached to nothing, he does decide against
Tx:22.4  here is sight of differences transformed to vision.] And reason  now can lead you to the logical conclusion of your union. It must
Tx:22.4  you reached out beyond the body to let yourselves be joined. And  now the sameness which you saw extends and finally removes all sense
Tx:22.11  ancient than the old illusion that it has replaced, is like a baby  now in its rebirth. Yet in this infant is your vision returned to
Tx:22.20  but what they make of it is not the same. The ego will assure you  now that it is impossible for you to see no guilt in anyone. And if
Tx:22.21  Creator wills is possible, but what you made believes it is not so.  Now must you choose between yourself and an illusion of yourself.
Tx:22.22 Forsake not  now each other. For you who are the same will not decide alone nor
Tx:22.38  you cannot go ahead. You must go either one way or the other. For  now if you go straight ahead, the way you went before you reached the
Tx:22.40  a solid block, nor realize how thin the drapery that separates you  now. Yet it is almost over in your awareness, and peace has reached
Tx:22.41  and lonely journey where you walked alone. The gates of Heaven, open  now for you, will you now open to the sorrowful. And none who looks
Tx:22.41  you walked alone. The gates of Heaven, open now for you, will you  now open to the sorrowful. And none who looks upon the Christ in you
Tx:22.41  veil which you will bring to light the tired eyes of those as weary  now as once you were. How thankful will they be to see you come among
Tx:22.55  Heaven that you fill again with the Eternal Light you bring shines  now on you. The means of sinlessness can know no fear because they
Tx:22.56  that you give the Holy Spirit is service to yourself. You who are  now His means must love all that He loves. And what you bring is your
Tx:23.3  everything from the illusion of harmfulness. And what seemed harmful  now stands shining in their innocence, released from sin and fear,
Tx:23.6  the world sparkle and shine and everything you once thought sinful  now will be reinterpreted as part of Heaven. How beautiful it is to
Tx:23.10  over. The journey's end is at the place of peace. Would you not  now accept the peace offered you here? This “enemy” you fought as an
Tx:23.23  this seems to do to the relationship between the Father and the Son.  Now it appears that they can never be one again. For one must
Tx:23.23  be one again. For one must always be condemned and by the other.  Now are they different and enemies. And their relationship is one
Tx:23.23  the other strong by his defeat. And fear of God and of each other  now appears as sensible, made real by what the Son of God has done
Tx:23.25 See how the fear of God is reinforced by this third principle.  Now it becomes impossible to turn to Him for help in misery. For now
Tx:23.25  Now it becomes impossible to turn to Him for help in misery. For  now He has become the “enemy” Who caused it and to Whom appeal is
Tx:23.25  aspect seems to be at war with Him and justified in its attack. And  now is conflict made inevitable and beyond the help of God. And now
Tx:23.25  And now is conflict made inevitable and beyond the help of God. And  now salvation must remain impossible because the savior has become
Tx:23.29 And  now there is a vague unanswered question, not yet “explained.” What
Tx:23.29  and cunning enemy? It must be what you want but never found. And  now you “understand” the reason why you found it not. For it was
Tx:23.29  the cover for his guilt, the hiding place for what belongs to you.  Now must his body be destroyed and sacrificed that you may have
Tx:23.32  then must its opposite, which was the truth before, be madness  now. Such a reversal, completely turned around, with madness sanity,
Tx:23.50  form is not your will. The overlooking of the battleground is  now your purpose.
Tx:24.3  love is gone because you asked a substitute to take its place. And  now must war, the substitute for peace, come with the one alternative
Tx:24.4  decisions have been made and kept hidden to become beliefs,  now given power to direct all subsequent decisions. Mistake you not
Tx:24.8  is lost to you. God gave you both Himself, and to remember this is  now the only purpose that you share. And so it is the only one you
Tx:24.10  relationship has been made clean of special goals. And would you  now defeat the goal of holiness that Heaven gave it? What
Tx:24.20 You have come far along the way of truth—too far to falter  now. Just one step more and every vestige of the fear of God will
Tx:24.25  bring you peace and joy of any kind? Through this despair you travel  now, yet it is but illusion of despair. The death of specialness is
Tx:24.34  attraction. Here is death enthroned as savior; crucifixion is  now redemption, and salvation can only mean destruction of the world,
Tx:24.46 Yet is He quiet, for He knows that love is in you  now and safely held in you by that same hand that holds your
Tx:24.60  Now you are merely asked that you pursue another goal with far less
Tx:24.62  God's creation that takes the place of yours? And where are they,  now that the host of God has found another son which he prefers to
Tx:25.7  Christ from its beholders. And both of you stand there, before Him  now, to let Him draw aside the veil that seems to keep you separate
Tx:25.35  think what it would do for you. Your “evil” thoughts that haunt you  now will seem increasingly remote and far away from you. And they go
Tx:25.38  For you have hurt yourself and made your Self your “enemy.” And  now you must believe you are not you but something alien to yourself
Tx:25.58  Now must he question this because the form of the alternative is
Tx:25.71  by being separate and apart from love. And what but vengeance  now can help and save, while love stands feebly by with helpless
Tx:25.78  that sin be kept in place. You mean that truth has greater value  now than all illusions. And you recognize that truth must be
Tx:26.11  is the problem gone, because it was an error in perception which  now has been corrected. One mistake is not more difficult for Him to
Tx:26.24  is undone by change of purpose in what once was specialness and  now is union? All illusions are but one. And in the recognition
Tx:26.37  past that he may hear a fact in what is there to hear where he is  now? And how much can his own delusions about time and place affect a
Tx:26.37  wish that what is gone could be made real again and seen as here and  now in place of what is really now and here. Is this a hindrance to
Tx:26.37  real again and seen as here and now in place of what is really  now and here. Is this a hindrance to the truth the past is gone and
Tx:26.39  a memory of time gone by? [This course will teach you only what is  now.] A dreadful instant in a distant past, now perfectly corrected,
Tx:26.39  teach you only what is now.] A dreadful instant in a distant past,  now perfectly corrected, is of no concern nor value. Let the dead and
Tx:26.39  peacefully forgotten. Resurrection has come to take its place. And  now you are a part of resurrection, not of death. No past illusions
Tx:26.40  that he chose to die instead of live. And will you not forgive him  now because he made an error in the past that God remembers not and
Tx:26.40  made an error in the past that God remembers not and is not there?  Now you are shifting back and forth between the past and present.
Tx:26.41  is past and gone and hinder not the true existence of the here and  now. The real world is the second part of the hallucination time and
Tx:26.42  of time is but the mad belief that what is over is still here and  now.
Tx:26.72  is looking forward, looking back but overlooking what is here and  now. Yet only here and now its cause must be if its effects already
Tx:26.72  back but overlooking what is here and now. Yet only here and  now its cause must be if its effects already have been judged as
Tx:26.74  content with sighing and with “reasoning” you do not understand it  now but will some day. And then its meaning will be clear. This is
Tx:26.74  in which 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
Tx:26.79  white and sparkling in the summer sun. What was a place of death has  now become a living temple in a world of light. Because of Them. It
Tx:26.79  and rendered desolate. What hate has wrought have They undone. And  now you stand on ground so holy Heaven leans to join with it and make
Tx:26.84  Now is the temple of the Living God rebuilt as host again to Him by
Tx:26.84  that They are welcome made at last. Where stood a cross stands  now the risen Christ, and ancient scars are healed within His sight.
Tx:26.84  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 come! For They
Tx:26.85  When you perceive it as unfair, you think that a response of anger  now is just. And thus you see what is the same as different.
Tx:27.2  come to him in righteousness. The unjust vengeance that you suffer  now belongs to him, and when it rests on him are you set free. Wish
Tx:27.5  it witnessed to the guilt in him which you perceived and loved.  Now in the hands made gentle by His touch, the Holy Spirit lays a
Tx:27.10  is it dead. It stands apart from all experience of fear or love. For  now it witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose being open and the mind
Tx:27.10  being open and the mind made free again to choose what it is for.  Now is it not condemned, but waiting for a purpose to be given that
Tx:27.30  by the half it canceled out, and so they both are gone. And  now he stands for nothing. Symbols which but represent ideas that
Tx:27.33  it is functionless. Yet in the learning interval it has a use which  now you fear, but yet will love.
Tx:27.63  Now you are being shown you can escape. All that is needed is you
Tx:27.74  has come to lighten up your sleeping face. The sleep is peaceful  now, for these are happy dreams.
Tx:27.81  too ridiculous for anything but to be laughed away. How serious they  now appear to be! And no one can remember when they would have met
Tx:27.83  world you see depicts exactly what you thought you did. Except that  now you think that what you did is being done to you. The guilt for
Tx:27.90  you separate from the world and kept your brother separate from you.  Now need you but to learn that both of you are innocent or guilty.
Tx:28.2  its past tense. It is perception of the past as if it were occurring  now and still were there to see. Memory, like perception, is a skill
Tx:28.6  make use of it, and so it is a way to hold the past against the  now.
Tx:28.7  what they are for. Let not the cause that you would give them  now be what it was which made them what they were or seemed to be. Be
Tx:28.11  the memory of God returns to them. Their own remembering is quiet  now, and what has come to take its place will not be wholly
Tx:28.13  resound throughout the stillness, yet disturb it not. And what is  now remembered is not fear, but rather is the cause that fear was
Tx:28.14  Now is the Son of God at last aware of present Cause and Its benign
Tx:28.14  Son of God at last aware of present Cause and Its benign effects.  Now does he understand what he has made is causeless, making no
Tx:28.25  as friends with merciful intent. Their enmity is seen as causeless  now, because they did not make it. And you can accept the role of
Tx:28.25  of maker of their hate, because you see that it has no effects.  Now are you freed from this much of the dream; the world is neutral,
Tx:29.5  lies not within itself. And herein lies its power over you. For  now you think that it determines when you meet and limits your
Tx:29.5  limits your ability to make communion with each other's mind. And  now it tells you where to go and how to go there, what is feasible
Tx:29.11  be you are healed. And being healed, the power to heal must also  now be yours. The miracle is not a separate thing which happens
Tx:29.11  Nor is it in itself a cause. But where its cause is must it be.  Now is it caused, though not as yet perceived. And its effects are
Tx:29.11  And its effects are there, though not yet seen. Look inward  now, and you will not behold a reason for regret but cause indeed for
Tx:29.13  His gifts came with Him. He has laid them at your feet and asks you  now that you will look on them and take them for your own. He needs
Tx:29.14 You do not see how much you  now can give because of everything you have received. Yet He Who
Tx:29.14  on them, you will believe His Presence must be there. For what you  now can do could not be done without the love and grace His Presence
Tx:29.24  because you gave your light to him to save him from the dark. And  now the light in you must be as bright as shines in him. This is the
Tx:29.41  purpose ended; it is gone. And where it once held seeming sway is  now restored the function God established for His Son in full
Tx:29.67  things have all been put away. And what was once a dream of judgment  now has changed into a dream where all is joy because that is the
Tx:29.67  for time is almost over. And the forms which enter in the dream are  now perceived as brothers, not in judgment but in love.
Tx:30.1 The new beginning  now becomes the focus of the curriculum. The goal is clear, but now
Tx:30.1  now becomes the focus of the curriculum. The goal is clear, but  now you need specific methods for attaining it. The speed by which it
Tx:30.1  you, but they are more ideas than rules of thought to you as yet. So  now we need to practice them awhile, until they are the rules by
Tx:30.1  they are the rules by which you live. We seek to make them habits  now, so you will have them ready for whatever need.
Tx:30.6 This is your major problem  now. You still make up your mind and then decide to ask what you
Tx:30.10 But there will still be times when you have judged already.  Now the answer will provoke attack unless you quickly straighten out
Tx:30.10  means you have decided by yourself and cannot see the question.  Now you need a quick restorative before you ask.
Tx:30.16 At least I can decide I do not like what I feel  now.
Tx:30.21  Now you have reached the turning point, because it has occurred to
Tx:30.21  happiness depends on being right. But this much reason have you  now attained—you would be better off if you were wrong.
Tx:30.24  Now you have changed your mind about the day and have remembered what
Tx:30.27 Thus you  now can ask a question that makes sense, and so the answer will make
Tx:30.34  never lose your will when He gave you His perfect answer. Hear it  now that you may be reminded of His love and learn your will. God
Tx:30.35  born into the world, and thus the rule of fear established there.  Now hear God speak to you through Him Who is His Voice and yours as
Tx:30.37  heal him, and because you have decided with him, he is healed. And  now is God forgiven, for you chose to look upon your brother as a
Tx:30.50  him. And he is afraid because he thought the rules protected him.  Now must he learn the boxes and the bears did not deceive him, broke
Tx:30.58  grasped and welcomed, and the means by which it can be gained can  now be understood. The world becomes a place of hope because its only
Tx:30.64  For He Whose hand you hold was waiting but for you to join Him.  Now that you have come, would He delay in showing you the way that
Tx:30.82  script you write for every minute in the day, and all that happens  now means something else. You take away another element, and every
Tx:30.89  you see will change, and yet you thought it real before, and  now you think it real again. Reality is thus reduced to form and
Tx:31.1  simple is salvation! All it says is what was never true is not true  now and never will be. The impossible has not occurred and can have
Tx:31.3  is no greater power in the world. The world was made by it and even  now depends on nothing else. The lessons you have taught yourselves
Tx:31.5  to demonstrate, and you have learned what it was made to teach.  Now does your ancient overlearning stand implacable before the Voice
Tx:31.8  world has always made, but you had not perceived it as it was. And  now you see you were mistaken. You had been deceived by forms the
Tx:31.12  thoughts of evil or of good that ever crossed your mind of anyone.  Now do [you] know him not. But you are free to learn of him and
Tx:31.12  him not. But you are free to learn of him and learn of him anew.  Now is he born again to you, and you are born again to him without
Tx:31.12  to him without 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
Tx:31.36  who still believe there is another answer to be found. Learn  now, without despair, there is no hope of answer in the world. But do
Tx:31.48  ensures your brother is condemned eternally. For what you are has  now become his sin. For this is no forgiveness possible. No longer
Tx:31.50  seek to go beyond its roads nor realize the way you see yourself.  Now must the Holy Spirit find a way to help you see this concept of
Tx:31.50  For otherwise you would be asked to make exchange of what you  now believe for total loss of self, and greater terror would arise in
Tx:31.51  not yet perceive that this is what you think, you surely learned by  now that you behave as if it were. Does he react for you? And
Tx:31.55  by your decision. But this gain is paid in almost equal loss, for  now you stand accused of guilt for what your brother is. And you
Tx:31.55  him in the image of your own. While only he was treacherous before,  now must you be condemned along with him.
Tx:31.63  as he was an instant previous, nor will he be the same as he is  now an instant hence. Who could have trust where so much change is
Tx:31.71  you. For your forgiveness, offered unto him, has been accepted  now for both of you.
Tx:31.72  is asked. On its behalf, remember what the concept of yourself which  now you hold has brought you in its wake, and welcome the glad
Tx:31.73 The concept of yourself which  now you hold would guarantee your function here remain forever
Tx:31.75  beholds this One. For there is light where darkness was before, and  now the veil is lifted from his sight.
Tx:31.87  presented once again, so where you made a faulty choice before, you  now can make a better one and thus escape all pain which what you
Tx:31.97 And  now we say “Amen.” For Christ has come to dwell in the abode You set
W1:I.3  two sections, the first dealing with the undoing of what you see  now and the second with the restoration of sight. It is recommended
W1:1.1  Now look slowly around you, and practice applying this idea very
W1:3.2  all past associations, to see things exactly as they appear to you  now, and to realize how little you really understand about them. It
W1:9.4 I do not see this typewriter as it is  now. I do not see this key as it is now. I do not see this telephone
W1:9.4  not see this typewriter as it is now. I do not see this key as it is  now. I do not see this telephone as it is now.
W1:9.6 I do not see that coat rack as it is  now. I do not see that face as it is now. I do not see that door as
W1:9.6  not see that coat rack as it is now. I do not see that face as it is  now. I do not see that door as it is now.
W1:10.2  no link is made overtly with the things around you. The emphasis is  now on the lack of reality of what you think you think.
W1:10.3  and then stressed their past rather than their present status.  Now we are emphasizing that the presence of these “thoughts” means
W1:10.5 This idea will help to release me from all that I  now believe.
W1:10.9 This idea will help to release me from all that I  now believe.
W1:12.8  Beneath your words is written the Word of God. The truth upsets you  now, but when your words have been erased, you will see His. That is
W1:15.2  little edges of light around the same familiar objects which you see  now. That is the beginning of real vision. You can be certain that
W1:19.5  subjects for the practice period should be quite familiar to you by  now and will no longer be repeated each day, although it will
W1:20.2  You want to be happy. You want peace. You do not have them  now because your mind is totally undisciplined, and you cannot
W1:20.2  between joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain, love and fear. You are  now learning how to tell them apart. And great indeed will be your
W1:20.4  idea also tacitly implies the recognition that you do not see  now. Therefore, as you repeat the idea, you are stating that you are
W1:23.4  Vision already holds a replacement for everything you think you see  now. Loveliness can light your images and so transform them that you
W1:25.3 Another way of describing the goals you  now perceive as valuable is to say that they are all concerned with
W1:26.1  is this law that will ultimately save you. But you are misusing it  now. You must therefore learn how it can be used for your own best
W1:28.1  is not our concern here. If you are willing at least to make them  now, you have started on the way to keeping them. And we are still at
W1:29.3  with love, appreciation, and open-mindedness. You do not see them  now. Would you know what is in them? Nothing is as it appears to you.
W1:29.4 Our six two-minute practice periods for today should follow a  now familiar pattern: begin with repeating the idea to yourself, and
W1:30.3  and trying to realize that the idea applies to everything you do see  now or could see now if it were within the range of your sight.
W1:30.3  that the idea applies to everything you do see now or could see  now if it were within the range of your sight.
W1:34.6 I could see peace in this situation instead of what I  now see in it.
W1:35.1 Today's idea does not describe the way you see yourself  now. It does, however, describe what vision will show you. It is
W1:39.4  is the answer to every question that was ever asked, is being asked  now, or will be asked in the future. Your holiness means the end of
W1:44.5  you practice in this form, you leave behind everything that you  now believe and all the thoughts which you have made up. Properly
W1:45.9  you thought with God in the beginning. They are there in your mind  now, completely unchanged. They will always be in your mind, exactly
W1:47.6  Now try to slip past all concerns related to your own sense of
W1:R1.6  statements nor to apply the ideas as was suggested then. We are  now emphasizing the relationships among the first fifty of the ideas
W1:51.2  that I recognize this, that I may learn to see. What I think I see  now is taking the place of vision. I must let it go by realizing that
W1:51.4  what can be seen and understood and loved. I can exchange what I see  now for this merely by being willing to do so. Is not this a better
W1:52.5 [9] I see nothing as it is  now. If I see nothing as it is now, it can truly be said that I see
W1:52.5 [9] I see nothing as it is now. If I see nothing as it is  now, it can truly be said that I see nothing. I can see only what is
W1:52.5  now, it can truly be said that I see nothing. I can see only what is  now. The choice is not whether to see the past or the present: it is
W1:52.5  whether to see or not. What I have chosen to see has cost me vision.  Now I would choose again that I may see.
W1:53.4  it the illusion of reality, and have suffered from my belief in it.  Now I choose to withdraw this belief and place my trust in reality.
W1:55.2 [21] I am determined to see things differently. What I see  now are but signs of disease, disaster, and death. This cannot be
W1:55.4  and joy. It is this I choose to see in place of what I look on  now.
W1:56.4  and guarantees its continuance. While I see the world as I see it  now, truth cannot enter my awareness. I would let the door behind
W1:59.5  Him. I have tried to define what seeing is, and I have been wrong.  Now it is given me to understand that God is the Light in which I
W1:60.4  I can see it! It will not look anything like what I imagine I see  now. Everyone and everything I see will lean toward me to bless me. I
W1:62.2  having denied your Identity by attacking creation and its Creator.  Now you are learning how to remember the truth. For this, attack must
W1:65.14  and sometimes keep them open and look about you. It is what you see  now that will be totally changed when you accept today's idea
W1:68.7 Determine  now to see all these people as friends. Say to them all collectively,
W1:69.1  is lifted, you are released with him. Share your salvation  now with him who stood beside you when you were in hell. He is your
W1:69.4 Very quietly  now, with your eyes closed, try to let go of all the content which
W1:69.6  remembering only how much you want to reach the light in you today— now. Determine to go past the clouds. Reach out and touch them in
W1:70.12  Now we will try again to reach the light in you, which is where your
W1:72.9  you, locked away from your awareness by the body's limitations.  Now we are going to try to see this differently.
W1:72.11  plan for us is. We are therefore attacking what we do not recognize.  Now we are going to try to lay judgment aside and ask what God's plan
W1:72.14  We have used our grievances to close our eyes and stop our ears.  Now we would see and hear and learn. “What is salvation, Father?” Ask
W1:73.11  of the Son of God from hell and from all idle wishes. His will is  now restored to his awareness. He is willing this very day to look
W1:75.2  ending to your long dream of disaster. There are no dark dreams  now. The light has come. Today the time of light begins for you and
W1:75.4  rises before us in gladness, to be seen at last. Sight is given us,  now that the light has come.
W1:75.7  have made. You have forgiven the world today. You can look upon it  now as if you never saw it before. You do not know yet what it looks
W1:75.9  the gift of sight to the forgiving. Believe He will not fail you  now. You have forgiven the world. He will be with you as you watch
W1:78.7  in this role. We will attempt to hold him in our mind, first as you  now consider him. We will review his faults, the difficulties you
W1:78.11 Be very quiet  now and look upon your shining savior. No dark grievances obscure the
W1:79.3 That is the position in which you find yourselves  now. You have the answer, but you are still uncertain about what the
W1:80.5  Now let the peace that your acceptance brings be given you. Close
W1:R2.1 We are  now ready for another review. We will begin where our last review
W1:89.2  grievances, which are but illusions that hide the miracles beyond.  Now I would accept only what the laws of God entitle me to have that
W1:92.9  in, for the peace of God is where your Self, His Son, is waiting  now to meet itself again and be as one.
W1:93.2  have bowed down to idols made of dust—all this is true by what you  now believe.
W1:94.5  Now try to reach the Son of God in you. This is the Self that never
W1:94.6  that it will be revealed to all who ask for it. You are asking  now. You cannot fail because He cannot fail.
W1:95.4  if it undertakes extended attempts. You have surely realized this by  now. You have seen the extent of your lack of mental discipline and
W1:96.6  itself as helpless, limited, and weak. Dissociated from its function  now, it thinks it is alone and separate, attacked by armies massed
W1:96.6  armies massed against itself and hiding in the body's frail support.  Now must it reconcile unlike with like, for this is what it thinks
W1:99.1  the impossible which has occurred, resulting in a state of conflict  now between what is and what could never be.
W1:99.2 Truth and illusions both are equal  now, for both have happened. The impossible becomes the thing you
W1:99.7 Salvation is your function with the One to Whom the plan was given.  Now are you entrusted with this plan, along with Him. He has one
W1:100.9  Now let us try to find that joy which proves to us and all the world
W1:100.9  us. It is your function that you find it here and that you find it  now. For this you came. Let this one be the day that you succeed!
W1:100.10 He will be there. And you can reach Him  now. What could you rather look upon in place of Him Who waits that
W1:101.10 Today escape from madness. You are set on freedom's road, and  now today's idea brings wings to speed you on and hope to go still
W1:102.1  that it buys you what you want. Yet this belief is surely shaken  now, at least enough to let you question it and to suspect it really
W1:102.5  God's Will for happiness for me, and I accept it as my function  now.
W1:102.7  minute rests, pause frequently today to tell yourself that you have  now accepted happiness as your one function. And be sure that you are
W1:104.3 These are the gifts which are within us  now, for they are timeless. And we need not wait to have them. They
W1:104.3  have them. They belong to us today. Therefore we will to have them  now and know in choosing them in place of what we made we but unite
W1:105.9  and let your mind be free of all that would prevent success today.  Now are you ready to accept the gift of peace and joy which God has
W1:105.9  ready to accept the gift of peace and joy which God has given you.  Now are you ready to experience the joy and peace you have denied
W1:105.9  you ready to experience the joy and peace you have denied yourself.  Now you can say, “God's peace and joy are mine,” for you have given
W1:106.8 Today we practice giving, not the way you understand it  now, but as it is. Each hour's exercises should begin with this
W1:107.3  a hundred times and then be multiplied another hundred more. And  now you have a hint, not more than just the faintest intimation of
W1:107.4  are nowhere. They cannot be found, for truth is everywhere forever  now.
W1:107.7 Truth does not come and go nor shift nor change, in this appearance  now and then in that, evading capture and escaping grasp. It does not
W1:108.1  the Thought behind it will appear instead, to take its place. And  now we are at peace forever, for the dream is over now.
W1:108.1  its place. And now we are at peace forever, for the dream is over  now.
W1:108.9  and to receive are one in truth. I will receive what I am giving  now.
W1:108.13  understood from this time on, and we will make much faster progress  now. Think of the exercises for today as quick advances in your
W1:109.4  hear another voice but yours because you gave your voice to God and  now you rest in Him and let Him speak through you.
W1:109.6  and thankfully accept its healing. No more fearful dreams will come  now that you rest in God. Take time today to slip away from dreams
W1:109.8  thing there is comes closer to all worn and tired minds, too weary  now to go their way alone. And they will hear the bird begin to sing
W1:R3.14  how little you have learned. Do not forget how much you can learn  now. Do not forget your Father's need of you as you review these
W1:121.7  hell through you and turns to you imploringly for Heaven here and  now. It has no hope, but you become its hope. And as its hope, do you
W1:121.11  Now close your eyes and see him in your mind and look at him a while.
W1:121.12  you learned to see around your former “enemy” to him. Perceive him  now as more than friend to you, for in that light his holiness shows
W1:121.12  your “enemy” and friend unite in blessing you with what you gave.  Now are you one with them and they with you. Now have you been
W1:121.12  you with what you gave. Now are you one with them and they with you.  Now have you been forgiven by yourself.
W1:122.7  Do not turn away in aimless wandering again. Accept salvation  now. It is the gift of God and not the world. The world can give no
W1:122.10  reached the turning point at which the road becomes far easier. And  now the way is short that yet we travel. We are close indeed to the
W1:122.12  and you will see another world arise you have no words to picture.  Now we walk directly into light, and we receive the gifts which have
W1:123.2 A day devoted  now to gratitude will add the benefit of some insight into the real
W1:124.6  times as yet to come, as easily as in the ones who walk beside them  now. Their thoughts are timeless and apart from distance as apart
W1:124.7  that we can save and heal accordingly. We have accepted and we  now would give, for we would keep the gifts our Father gave. Today we
W1:126.1  by which salvation comes to you and would not hesitate to use it  now.
W1:126.12  to myself. The Help I need to learn that this is true is with me  now. And I will trust in Him.
W1:127.7  this. For 15 minutes twice today escape from every law in which you  now believe. Open your mind and rest. The world that seems to hold
W1:127.10  aside the world they thought was made in hate to be love's enemy.  Now are they all made free along with us. Now are they all our
W1:127.10  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.
W1:129.5  yet how near are you when you exchange it for the world you want.  Now is the last step certain; now you stand an instant's space away
W1:129.5  exchange it for the world you want. Now is the last step certain;  now you stand an instant's space away from timelessness. Here can you
W1:129.11  Now do we understand there is no loss, for we have seen its opposite
W1:131.7  the Will of God be in the past or yet to happen? What He wills is  now, without a past and wholly futureless. It is as far removed from
W1:131.9  He is here because He wills to be, and what He wills is present  now beyond the reach of time.
W1:131.15  it is this request you make today. Nothing but this has any meaning  now; no other goal is valued now nor sought; nothing before this door
W1:131.15  today. Nothing but this has any meaning now; no other goal is valued  now nor sought; nothing before this door you really want, and only
W1:132.2  is free to change his mind, and all his thoughts change with it.  Now the source of thought has shifted, for to change your mind means
W1:132.3  thoughts of seeking what you do not want to find. The present  now remains the only time. Here in the present is the world set free.
W1:132.8  are prepared to learn there is no world and can accept the lesson  now. Their readiness will bring the lesson to them in some form which
W1:132.10 A lesson earlier repeated once must  now be stressed again, for it contains the firm foundation for
W1:134.9  Now are you free to follow in the way your true forgiveness opens up
W1:134.11  dream by understanding what he thought he saw was never there. And  now he cannot feel that all escape has been denied to him.
W1:134.18 Let him be freed from all the thoughts you had of sin in him. And  now you are prepared for freedom. If you have been practicing thus
W1:135.17  its choice of what will happen. And it does not see that here and  now is everything it needs to guarantee a future quite unlike the
W1:135.27  And you rise again from what was seeming death and hopelessness.  Now is the light of hope reborn in you, for now you come without
W1:135.27  death and hopelessness. Now is the light of hope reborn in you, for  now you come without defense to learn the part for you within the
W1:136.8  mind and all your world appears to totter and prepare to fall.  Now are you sick that truth may go away and threaten your
W1:136.14  For it lets you think what God has given you is not the truth right  now, as it must be. The thoughts of God are quite apart from time.
W1:136.19  Now is the body healed because the source of sickness has been opened
W1:136.20  and drink, or any laws you made it serve before. You need do nothing  now to make it well, for sickness has become impossible.
W1:137.16  take the place of all the foolish thoughts that ever were imagined.  Now we come together to make well all that was sick and offer
W1:138.7  choice that time was made to help us make. Such is its holy purpose,  now transformed from the intent you gave it, that it be a means for
W1:138.9  are open to correction as the truth dismisses them as causeless.  Now are they without effects. They cannot be concealed because their
W1:138.11  is real, is flimsy and transparent in the light. It holds no terror  now, for what was made enormous, vengeful, pitiless with hate demands
W1:138.11  pitiless with hate demands obscurity for fear to be invested there.  Now it is recognized as but a foolish, trivial mistake.
W1:138.12  we reaffirm the choice that we have made each hour in between. And  now we give the last five minutes of our waking day to the decision
W1:138.13 Heaven is the decision I must make. I make it  now and will not change my mind, because it is the only thing I want.
W1:140.1  One belief in sickness takes another form, and so the patient  now perceives himself as well.
W1:140.4  makes the sickness possible. And that is cure indeed. For sickness  now is gone, with nothing left to which it can return.
W1:140.11  delay the time when we can hear our Father speak to us. We hear Him  now. We come to Him today.
W1:R4.1  Now we review again, this time aware we are preparing for the second
W1:R4.1  in such a way as will facilitate the readiness which we would  now achieve.
W1:R4.10  close your eyes and say them slowly to yourself. There is no hurry  now, for you are using time for its intended purpose. Let each word
W1:R4.12  you in the peace wherein He wills you be forever and are learning  now to claim again as your inheritance.
W1:151.8  sinlessness. Whom He has judged can only laugh at guilt, unwilling  now to play with toys of sin, unheeding of the body's witnesses
W1:151.16  is the world redeemed and joyfully released from guilt.  Now do we lift our resurrected minds in gladness and in gratitude to
W1:151.17  accepts our holy thoughts which Heaven has corrected and made pure.  Now has our ministry begun at last, to carry round the world the
W1:152.8  awareness then will be all that there ever was, eternally as it is  now. And it will take the place of self-deceptions made but to usurp
W1:152.11  to Heaven and release from hell are joyously accepted as our own.  Now do we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false and only
W1:153.2  to weakness and sets up a system of defense that cannot work.  Now are the weak still further undermined, for there is treachery
W1:153.2  treachery without and still a greater treachery within. The mind is  now confused and knows not where to turn to find escape from its
W1:153.7  the Christ and come to fear His Father's anger. What can save you  now from your delusion of an angry god whose fearful image you
W1:153.7  in all the evils of the world? What but illusions could defend you  now, when it is but illusions which you fight?
W1:153.9  all thought or wish or dream in which attack has any meaning.  Now we cannot fear, for we have left all fearful thoughts behind. And
W1:153.9  in defenselessness we stand secure, serenely certain of our safety  now, sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill our chosen purpose as
W1:153.13  in terror in a fearful world made mad by sin and guilt, be happy  now. That game is over. Now a quiet time has come in which we put
W1:153.13  world made mad by sin and guilt, be happy now. That game is over.  Now a quiet time has come in which we put away the toys of guilt and
W1:153.15  our attention to the daily thought as long as possible. Five minutes  now becomes the least we give to preparation for a day in which
W1:153.20  pause a moment as He tells us, “I am here.” Your practicing will  now begin to take the earnestness of love to help you keep your mind
W1:154.4  all sin, with guilt abolished in the mind that God created sinless.  Now this mind becomes aware again of Who created it and of His
W1:154.8  of God? For thus do you become His messengers. You are appointed  now. And yet you wait to give the messages you have received, and so
W1:154.9 You who are  now the messengers of God receive His messages, for that is part of
W1:154.15  are true. They are the message sent to us today from our Creator.  Now we demonstrate how they have changed our minds about ourselves
W1:155.5  both are quickly left behind. This is the way appointed for you  now. You walk this path as others walk, nor do you seem to be
W1:155.6  which you bring their eyes to look on and their minds to grasp.  Now can the truth, which walks ahead of you, speak to them through
W1:155.6  speak to them through illusion, for the road leads past illusion  now, while on the way you call to them that they may follow you.
W1:155.9 Walk safely  now, yet carefully because this path is new to you. And you may find
W1:155.9  you walk with certainty of purpose to the truth. It goes before you  now, that they may see something with which they can identify,
W1:155.12  the holy Son of God? We walk to God. The truth that walks before us  now is one with Him and leads us to where He has always been. What
W1:155.14 And  now He asks but that you think of Him a while each day that He may
W1:156.7  Companion, and mistake Him for the senseless, ancient dream that  now is past.
W1:157.2  crucial turning point in the curriculum. We add a new dimension  now—a fresh experience that sheds a light on all that we have
W1:157.4 He will direct your practicing today, for what you ask for  now is what He wills. And having joined your will with His this day,
W1:157.6 Your body will be sanctified today, its only purpose being  now to bring the vision of what you experience this day to light the
W1:157.8  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 now it has a purpose
W1:157.8  form in which you now appear, for you will have no need of it. Yet  now it has a purpose and will serve it well. Today we will embark
W1:157.9 Into Christ's Presence will we enter  now, serenely unaware of everything except His shining face and
W1:159.2  is no miracle you cannot give, for all are given you. Receive them  now by opening the storehouse of your mind where they are laid and
W1:159.9  one they came from and to which they go again with added fragrance.  Now are they twice blessed. The messages they brought from Christ
W1:160.2  comes and yet maintains his home belongs to him, while he is alien  now who is at home.
W1:160.5  more like me than myself and give him all I thought belonged to me.”  Now is he exiled of necessity, not knowing who he is, uncertain of
W1:160.6 What does he search for  now? What can he find? A stranger to himself can find no home
W1:160.6  a miracle will search him out and show him that he is no stranger  now. The miracle will come. For in his home his Self remains. It
W1:160.7  the stranger? Is he not the one your Self calls not? You are unable  now to recognize this stranger in your midst, for you have given him
W1:161.1  is Atonement made complete, the world passed safely by, and Heaven  now restored. Here is the answer of the Voice of God.
W1:161.2  abstraction is the natural condition of the mind. But part of it is  now unnatural. It does not look on everything as one. It sees instead
W1:161.3 Thus were specifics made. And  now it is specifics we must use in practicing. We give them to the
W1:161.11  in a form we have attempted earlier. Your readiness is closer  now, and you will come today nearer Christ's vision. If you are
W1:161.12  he makes so frequently. Then think of this—what you are seeing  now conceals from you the sight of one who can forgive you all your
W1:161.15  will hear the Voice of God in you and answer in your own. Behold him  now whom you had seen as merely flesh and bone and recognize that
W1:162.4  the mind of him who uses them. So wholly is it changed that it is  now the treasury in which God places all His gifts and all His Love
W1:162.5 We honor you today. Yours is the right to perfect holiness you  now accept. With this acceptance is salvation brought to everyone,
W1:162.6 And who would not be brother to you  now—you, his redeemer and his savior. Who could fail to welcome you
W1:163.8  you will show 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
W1:164.1 What time but  now can truth be recognized? The present is the only time there is.
W1:164.1  The present is the only time there is. And so today, this instant,  now, we come to look upon what is forever there—not in our sight,
W1:164.5  vain imaginings part like a curtain to reveal what lies beyond them.  Now is what is really there made visible, while all the shadows which
W1:164.5  while all the shadows which appeared to hide it sink to obscurity.  Now is the balance righted and the scales of judgment left to Him Who
W1:164.5  judgment will a world unfold in perfect innocence before your eyes.  Now will you see it with the eyes of Christ. Now is its
W1:164.5  before your eyes. Now will you see it with the eyes of Christ.  Now is its transformation clear to you.
W1:164.8  us and offer it the freedom given us through His forgiving vision,  now our own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely letting go
W1:165.5  sought. What would you then exchange it for? What would induce you  now to let it fade away from your ecstatic vision? For this sight
W1:165.6  Now is all doubting past, the journey's end made certain, and
W1:165.6  past, the journey's end made certain, and salvation given you.  Now is Christ's power in your mind to heal as you were healed. For
W1:165.6  Now is Christ's power in your mind to heal as you were healed. For  now you are among the saviors of the world. Your destiny lies there
W1:166.9 Your ancient fear has come upon you  now, and justice has caught up with you at last. Christ's hand has
W1:166.11  Now do we live, for now we cannot die. The wish for death is
W1:166.11 Now do we live, for  now we cannot die. The wish for death is answered, and the sight that
W1:166.11  The wish for death is answered, and the sight that looked upon it  now has been replaced by vision which perceives that you are not what
W1:166.12  you have are not for you alone. What He has come to offer you, you  now must learn to give. This is the lesson that His giving holds, for
W1:166.13  understand they but pursue their wishes. It is you who teach them  now. For you have learned of Christ there is another way for them to
W1:166.14 Your sighs will  now betray the hopes of those who look to you for their release. Your
W1:166.15  accept His gifts and feel the touch of Christ. Such is your mission  now. For God entrusts the giving of His gifts to all who have
W1:166.15  to all who have received them. He has shared His joy with you. And  now you go to share it with the world.
W1:167.12  in the holy 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
W1:167.12  Lord of Life so perfectly it fades into what is reflected there. And  now it is no more a mere reflection. It becomes the thing reflected
W1:167.12  reflected and the light which makes reflection possible. No vision  now is needed. For the wakened mind is one that knows its Source, its
W1:168.4 God loves His Son. Request Him  now to give the means by which this world will disappear, and vision
W1:168.4  every face as hearts rise up and claim the light as theirs. What  now remains that Heaven be delayed an instant longer? What remains
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
W1:169.5  them and no part of mind sufficiently distinct to feel that it is  now aware of something not itself. It has united with its Source, and
W1:169.7  that the time the mind itself determined to abandon all but this is  now at hand. We do not hasten it, in that what you will offer was
W1:169.8  constant state, forever as it always was; forever to remain as it is  now. We merely take the part assigned long since and fully recognized
W1:169.9  of your oneness comes, it will be known and fully understood.  Now we have work to do, for those in time can speak of things beyond
W1:169.11 And  now we ask for grace, the final gift salvation can bestow. Experience
W1:170.4  your mind into two camps which seem wholly irreconcilable. For love  now has an “enemy,” an opposite; and fear, the alien, now needs your
W1:170.4  For love now has an “enemy,” an opposite; and fear, the alien,  now needs your defense against the threat of what you really are.
W1:170.10  is loved by those who worship it, and love appears to be invested  now with cruelty.
W1:170.11  fear perceive their own confusion in fear's “enemy,” its cruelty as  now a part of love. And what becomes more fearful than the heart of
W1:170.13  Now do your eyes belong to Christ, and He looks through them. Now
W1:170.13 Now do your eyes belong to Christ, and He looks through them.  Now your voice belongs to God and echoes His. And now your heart
W1:170.13  through them. Now your voice belongs to God and echoes His. And  now your heart remains at peace forever. You have chosen Him in place
W1:170.13  are restored to you at last. The Call of God is heard and answered.  Now has fear made way for love, as God Himself replaces cruelty.
W1:170.14  are one with us. We bring them Your salvation as we have received it  now. And we give thanks for them who render us complete. In them we
W1:R5.1 We  now review again. This time we are ready to give more effort and more
W1:R5.1  walk uncertainly and slowly on the road this course sets forth. But  now we hasten on, for we approach a greater certainty, a firmer
W1:R5.3  off, but You will not forget to call us back. Quicken our footsteps  now, that we may walk more certainly and quickly unto You. And we
W1:R5.4  and true, and more descriptive of the holy Self we share and  now prepare to know again:
W1:R5.8  see, but still retaining in his mind the way that led him out and  now will lead you out with him. God's Son is crucified until you walk
W1:R5.9  the light in him and looks for me. I have forgotten no one. Help me  now to lead you back to where the journey was begun, to make another
W1:R5.12  Hallowed your name. Your glory undefiled forever. And your wholeness  now complete, as God established it. You are His Son, completing His
W1:174.2 [157] Into His Presence would I enter  now. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:177.3 [164]  Now are we one with Him Who is our Source. God is but Love, and
W1:179.3 [168] Your grace is given me. I claim it  now. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:I2.1  total dedication all the time, as yet. But you are asked to practice  now in order to attain the sense of peace such unified commitment
W1:I2.2 Our lessons  now are geared specifically to widening horizons and direct
W1:I2.2  too limited to let you see the value of our goal. We are attempting  now to lift these blocks, however briefly. Words alone cannot convey
W1:I2.3  denied. It may be there, but you cannot accept its presence. So we  now attempt to go past all defenses for a little while each day. No
W1:181.2  this focus, and what you behold will change accordingly. Your vision  now will shift to give support to the intent which has replaced the
W1:181.3  for innocence and nothing else. We seek for it with no concern but  now.
W1:181.5  to past beliefs, and what we will believe will not intrude upon us  now. We enter in the time of practicing with one intent—to look
W1:181.10  into the present. And we give our trust to the experience we ask for  now. Our sinlessness is but the Will of God. This instant is our
W1:182.4  The childhood of your body and its place of shelter are a memory  now so distorted that you merely hold a picture of a past that never
W1:182.12  accept it in exchange for all the toys of battle you have made. And  now the way is open, and the journey has an end in sight at last. Be
W1:183.11  He calls on Him to let all things he thought he made be nameless  now, and in their place the holy Name of God becomes his judgment of
W1:183.12 All little things are silent. Little sounds are soundless  now. The little things of earth have disappeared. The universe

W1:185.5  which bring illusions. He has looked on them and found them wanting.  Now he seeks to go beyond them, recognizing that another dream would

W1:186.12  given you by your Creator, Who remembers you and urges that you  now remember Him.
W1:187.3  look upon. Herein is the idea of giving clarified and given meaning.  Now you can perceive that by your giving is your store increased.
W1:187.8  must be made. Your blessing will correct it. Given first to you, it  now is yours to give as well. No form of sacrifice and suffering can

W1:188.3 The peace of God is shining in you  now and from your heart extends around the world. It pauses to caress
W1:188.5  he recognized the truth in him. The peace of God is shining in you  now and in all living things. In quietness is it acknowledged
W1:188.8  home. We have betrayed them, ordering that they depart from us. But  now we call them back and wash them clean of strange desires and
W1:188.9  it did to us. For it is we who make the world as we would have it.  Now we choose that it be innocent, devoid of sin, and open to
W1:188.10 The peace of God is shining in me  now. Let all things shine upon me in that peace, and let me bless
W1:189.1  your sight. This light is a reflection of the thought we practice  now. To feel the Love of God within you is to see the world anew,
W1:189.10  be done in us and in the world, that it becomes a part of Heaven  now. Amen.
W1:190.5  will accept your holy will as theirs. And what was seen as fearful  now becomes a source of innocence and holiness.
W1:192.4  the world a clean and unmarked slate on which the Word of God can  now replace the senseless symbols written there before. Forgiveness

W1:192.10  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. Your

W1:193.4  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 in which
W1:193.4  enters, and returns the hate to love, so that the fear is gone. And  now guilt cannot enter, for its source has been excluded as the
W1:193.12  forget His Love and all the gifts His Love brings with it. Would you  now renounce your own salvation? Would you fail to learn the simple
W1:193.15 Give all you can and give a little more, for  now we would arise in haste and go unto our Father's house. We have
W1:194.1  with certainty the final step of God. How far are we progressing  now from earth! How close are we approaching to our goal! How short
W1:194.4  well because the past will punish you no more and future dread will  now be meaningless.
W1:194.5  light that 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
W1:194.9  Now are we saved indeed. For in God's hands we rest untroubled, sure
W1:195.2  a prison that they thought contained no door to the deliverance they  now perceive.

W1:195.8  aside. What more remains as obstacles to peace? The fear of God is  now undone at last, and we forgive without comparing. Thus we cannot
W1:196.8  by your own thoughts, the fear of God must disappear. You do not  now believe that fear is caused without. And God, Whom you had
W1:196.11  Now for an instant is a murderer perceived within you, eager for your
W1:197.9  be His thoughts, sharing with Him the holy thoughts of God. Earn  now the gratitude you have denied yourself when you forgot the
W1:198.1  can injure, and the right you have established for yourself can be  now used against you till you lay it down as valueless, unwanted, and
W1:198.1  be undone. Then are you free, for freedom is your gift, and you can  now receive the gift you gave.
W1:198.13  Now is there silence all around the world. Now is there stillness
W1:198.13 Now is there silence all around the world.  Now is there stillness where before there was a frantic rush of
W1:198.13  before there was a frantic rush of thoughts that made no sense.  Now is there tranquil light across the face of earth, made quiet in a
W1:198.13  light across the face of earth, made quiet in a dreamless sleep. And  now the Word of God alone remains upon it. Only that can be perceived
W1:198.15  far and recognize that He Who brought us here will not forsake us  now. For He would give to us the gift that God has given us through
W1:198.15  would give to us the gift that God has given us through Him today.  Now is it time for your deliverance. The time has come. The time has
W1:199.6  freedom. In Him they find what they have sought. The body's purpose  now is unambiguous. And it becomes perfect in the ability to serve an
W1:199.7  afraid. Let love replace their fears through you. Accept salvation  now, and give your mind to Him Who calls to you to make this gift to
W1:200.8  journeys, frantic, vain pursuits, and meaningless endeavors.  Now the way is easy, sloping gently toward the bridge where freedom
W1:200.10  Now is there silence. Seek no further. You have come to where the
W1:200.10  desires, fallen from the trees of hopelessness you sought before.  Now are they underfoot. And you look up and on toward Heaven, with
W1:200.10  Heaven, with the body's eyes but serving for an instant longer  now. Peace is already recognized at last, and you can feel its soft
W1:R6.11  you call to Him to help you. Let us offer Him the whole review we  now begin, and let us also not forget to Whom it has been given as we
W1:208.1 [188] The peace of God is shining in me  now. I will be still and let the earth be still along with me. And
W1:209.1 [189] I feel the Love of God within me  now. The Love of God is what created me. The Love of God is
W1:214.1  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 only be for good.
W2:I.1 Words will mean little  now. We use them but as guides on which we do not now depend. For now
W2:I.1  will mean little now. We use them but as guides on which we do not  now depend. For now we seek direct experience of truth alone. The
W2:I.1  now. We use them but as guides on which we do not now depend. For  now we seek direct experience of truth alone. The lessons which
W2:I.1  the times in which we leave the world of pain and go to enter peace.  Now we begin to reach the goal this course has set and find the end
W2:I.2  Now we attempt to let the exercise be merely a beginning. For we wait
W2:I.2  are sure His promises are kept. We have come far along the road, and  now we wait for Him. We will continue spending time with Him each
W2:I.2  as makes us happy. We will not consider time a matter of duration  now. We use as much as we will need for the result that we desire.
W2:I.4  Now do we come to Him with but His Word upon our minds and hearts.
W2:I.4  will offer it, and it will be accepted. So our times with Him will  now be spent. We say the words of invitation that His Voice suggests,
W2:I.5  Now is the time of prophecy fulfilled. Now are all ancient promises
W2:I.5 Now is the time of prophecy fulfilled.  Now are all ancient promises upheld and fully kept. No step remains
W2:I.5  No step remains for time to separate from its accomplishment. For  now we cannot fail. Sit silently and wait upon your Father. He has
W2:I.6  exchange for its replacement given us by You. We look not backward  now. We look ahead and fix our eyes upon the journey's end. Accept
W2:I.7 And  now we wait in silence, unafraid and certain of Your coming. We have
W2:I.7  but You did not forget us. And we know that You will not forget us  now. We ask but that Your ancient promises be kept which are Your
W2:I.9  make of Him. And we believed that our insane desires were the truth.  Now we are glad that this is all undone, and we no longer think
W2:I.10  Now is the need for practice almost done. For in this final section
W2:I.10  the way God's plan will end, as we received the way it started.  Now it is complete. This year has brought us to eternity.
W2:I.11  blessed instants in the day. We give the first of these instructions  now.
W2:WF.1  and therefore lets it go. What then is free to take its place is  now the Will of God.
W2:WF.5  has forgiven you already, for such is His function given Him by God.  Now must you share His function and forgive whom He has saved, whose
W2:221.2  Now do we wait in quiet. God is here because we wait together. I am
W2:222.2  upon our lips and in our minds as we come quietly into Your Presence  now and ask to rest with You in peace a while.
W2:223.1  which moved in isolation, unattached, and housed within a body.  Now I know my life is God's. I have no other home, and I do not exist
W2:224.2  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 have me
W2:225.2 Brother, we find that stillness  now. The way is open. Now we follow it in peace together. You have
W2:225.2 Brother, we find that stillness now. The way is open.  Now we follow it in peace together. You have reached your hand to me,
W2:226.1  the purpose of the world. If I believe it has a value as I see it  now, so will it still remain for me. But if I see no value in the
W2:227.1  mistaken and did not affect my own reality at all by my illusions.  Now I give them up and lay them down before the feet of truth, to be
W2:229.1  and find it in these words: “Love, Which created me, is what I am.”  Now need I seek no more. Love has prevailed. So still it waited for
W2:230.1  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, when it is
W2:230.2  You gave as mine in my creation. What was given then must be here  now, for my creation was apart from time and still remains beyond all
W2:WS.2  of the mind that still was one but failed to recognize its oneness.  Now it did not know itself and thought its own Identity was lost.
W2:WS.3  it merely lets them quietly go down to dust. And what they hid is  now revealed—an altar to the holy Name of God whereon His Word is
W2:WS.4  by God. The grass is pushing through the soil, the trees are budding  now, and birds have come to live within their branches. Earth is
W2:WS.5  dreams are done, eternity has shined away the world, and only Heaven  now exists at all.
W2:WIW.1  truth, where all the world must disappear and all its errors vanish.  Now its source has gone, and its effects are gone as well.
W2:WIW.2  cause such insane thoughts. But eyes deceive, and ears hear falsely.  Now mistakes become quite possible, for certainty has gone.
W2:WIW.3 The mechanisms of illusion have been born instead. And  now they go to find what has been given them to seek. Their aim is to
W2:241.1  This is the time of hope for countless millions. They will be united  now as you forgive them all. For I will be forgiven by you today.
W2:241.2 We have forgiven one another  now, and so we come at last to You again. Father, Your Son, who never
W2:248.1 I have disowned the truth.  Now let me be as faithful in disowning falsity. Whatever suffers is
W2:248.1  was never living in reality and did but mock the truth about myself.  Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about the holy Son of
W2:248.1  disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about the holy Son of God.  Now am I ready to accept him back as God created him, and as he is.
W2:248.2  lets me love Your Son again as well. Father, I am as You created me.  Now is Your Love remembered and my own. Now do I understand that they
W2:248.2  I am as You created me. Now is Your Love remembered and my own.  Now do I understand that they are one.
W2:249.1  no sense. Attack is gone, and madness has an end. What suffering is  now conceivable? What loss can be sustained? The world becomes a
W2:249.1  a place of joy, abundance, charity, and endless giving. It is  now so like to Heaven that it quickly is transformed into the Light
W2:249.2  bitterness, and frightened them with thoughts of violence and death.  Now would we rest again in You, as You created us.
W2:WIS.2  Its purpose is to strive. Yet can the goal of striving change. And  now the body serves a different aim for striving. What it seeks for
W2:WIS.2  now the body serves a different aim for striving. What it seeks for  now is chosen by the aim the mind has taken as replacement for the
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 and only what I
W2:251.1  not and did not even want. My only need I did not recognize. But  now I see that I need only truth. In that, all needs are satisfied,
W2:251.1  cravings end, all hopes are finally fulfilled, and dreams are gone.  Now have I everything that I could need. Now have I everything that I
W2:251.1  and dreams are gone. Now have I everything that I could need.  Now have I everything that I could want. And now at last I find
W2:251.1  that I could need. Now have I everything that I could want. And  now at last I find myself at peace.
W2:252.1 My Self is holy beyond all the thoughts of holiness of which I  now conceive. Its shimmering and perfect purity is far more brilliant
W2:252.2 Father, You know my true Identity. Reveal it  now to me who am Your Son, that I may waken to the truth in You and
W2:254.2  with them. And so we do not choose to keep them. They are silent  now. And in the stillness, hallowed by His Love, God speaks to us and
W2:260.2  Now is our Source remembered, and therein we find our true Identity
W2:WIB.4  to reach his brother and to help him walk along the road with him.  Now is the body holy. Now it serves to heal the mind that it was made
W2:WIB.4  and to help him walk along the road with him. Now is the body holy.  Now it serves to heal the mind that it was made to kill.
W2:267.1  fills my heart and floods my body with the purpose of forgiveness.  Now my mind is healed, and all I need to save the world is given me.
W2:270.1  more of time, which ends forever as Your memory returns to him. And  now his will is one with Yours. His function now is but Your own, and
W2:270.1  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 gone.
W2:WIC.5  face be seen, when it is but the symbol that the time for learning  now is over and the goal of the Atonement has been reached at last?
W2:273.1 Perhaps we are  now ready for a day of undisturbed tranquility. If this is not yet
W2:279.1  his dreams are gone, with truth established in their place. And  now is freedom his already. Should I wait in chains which have been
W2:279.1  which have been severed for release, when God is offering me freedom  now?
W2:283.2  Now are we one in shared Identity, with God our Father as our only
W2:289.1  past was made to hide, for this the world that can be looked on only  now. It has no past. For what can be forgiven but the past, and if it
W2:WIRW.5 The Holy Spirit has no need of time when it has served His purpose.  Now He waits but that one instant more for God to take His final
W2:WISC.4  For everyone who ever came to die or yet will come or who is present  now is equally released from what he made. In this equality is Christ
W2:302.1  We thought we suffered. But we had forgot the Son whom You created.  Now we see that darkness is our own imagining and light is there for
W2:308.1  future one. The only interval in which I can be saved from time is  now. For in this instant has forgiveness come to set me free. The
W2:308.1  instant has forgiveness come to set me free. The birth of Christ is  now, without a past or future. He has come to give His present
W2:308.1  it to timelessness and love. And love is ever-present, here and  now.
W2:308.2 Thanks for this instant, Father. It is  now I am redeemed. This instant is the time You have appointed for
W2:WILJ.1  you see a world which has accepted this as true, projected from a  now corrected mind. And with this holy sight, perception gives a
W2:WILJ.2  forgiven, without sin and wholly purposeless. Without a cause and  now without a function in Christ's sight, it merely slips away to
W2:WILJ.2  the figures in the dream in which the world began go with it. Bodies  now are useless and will therefore fade away because the Son of God
W2:313.1  all its sins forgiven, for He sees no sin in anything He looks upon.  Now let His true perception come to me that I may waken from the
W2:314.1  world there comes a future very different from the past. The future  now is recognized as but extension of the present. Past mistakes can
W2:314.1  being formless, it has no effects. Death will not claim the future  now, for life is now its goal, and all the needed means are happily
W2:314.1  it has no effects. Death will not claim the future now, for life is  now its goal, and all the needed means are happily provided. Who can
W2:314.2  were mistaken in the past and choose to use the present to be free.  Now do we leave the future in Your hands, leaving behind our past
W2:315.2  Son of God. My brothers are unlimited in all their gifts to me.  Now may I offer them my thankfulness that gratitude to them may lead
W2:321.1  I have searched in vain until I heard Your Voice directing me.  Now I would guide myself no more. For I have neither made nor
W2:323.2  to us in wholeness and in joy. We are deceived no longer. Love has  now returned to our awareness. And we are at peace again, for fear
W2:332.2  has given us the means to set it free. Father, we would release it  now. For as we offer freedom, it is given us. And we would not remain
W2:337.1  for I need but accept my Self, my sinlessness, created for me,  now already mine, to feel God's Love protecting me from harm, to
W2:337.2  sinned, but I accept Atonement for myself. Father, my dream is ended  now. Amen.
W2:338.1  For in this single thought is everyone released at last from fear.  Now he has learned that no one frightens him and nothing can endanger
W2:WIM.2  before, and thus it ends the strange distortions that were manifest.  Now is perception open to the truth. Now is forgiveness seen as
W2:WIM.2  distortions that were manifest. Now is perception open to the truth.  Now is forgiveness seen as justified.
W2:WIM.5  and dusty world, where starved and thirsty creatures came to die.  Now they have water. Now the world is green. And everywhere the signs
W2:WIM.5  starved and thirsty creatures came to die. Now they have water.  Now the world is green. And everywhere the signs of life spring up to
W2:342.2 Brother, forgive me  now. I come to you to take you home with me. And as we go, the world
W2:WAI.2 Our use for words is almost over  now. Yet in the final days of this one year we gave to God together,
W2:WAI.5  We bring glad tidings to the Son of God, who thought he suffered.  Now is he redeemed. And as he sees the gate of Heaven stand open
W2:355.1  waits for me, and I need but reach out my hand to find it. Even  now my fingers touch it. It is very close. I need not wait an instant
W2:FL.5  the gift our Father promised to His holy Son. We are forgiven  now. And we are saved from all the wrath we thought belonged to God
W2:E.4 And  now I place you in His hands, to be His faithful followers, with Him
W2:E.4  you of your Father and your brother and your Self. He will continue;  now you walk with Him as certain as is He of where you go; as sure as
M:1.4  it is time alone that winds on wearily, and the world is very tired  now. It is old and worn and without hope. There was never a question
M:2.3  the world of illusion. What happened long ago seems to be happening  now. Choices made long since appear to be open, yet to be made. What
M:2.4  that is relived again and again and still again, it seems to be  now. And thus it is that pupil and teacher seem to come together in
M:2.4  because he made the right choice in that ancient instant which he  now relives. So has the teacher, too, made an inevitable choice out
M:4.6  learned that the changes in his life are always helpful, he must  now decide all things on the basis of whether they increase the
M:4.8  Now comes a “period of settling down.” This is a quiet time in which
M:4.8  time in which the teacher of God rests a while in reasonable peace.  Now he consolidates his learning. Now he begins to see the transfer
M:4.8  rests a while in reasonable peace. Now he consolidates his learning.  Now he begins to see the transfer value of what he has learned. Its
M:4.8  Its potential is literally staggering, and the teacher of God is  now at the point in his progress at which he sees in it his whole way
M:4.8  he is ready to go on, he goes with mighty companions beside him.  Now he rests a while and gathers them before going on. He will not go
M:4.9 The next stage is indeed a “period of unsettling.”  Now must the teacher of God understand that he did not really know
M:4.9  for him to judge. He thought he had learned willingness, but  now he sees that he does not know what the willingness is for. And
M:4.9  now he sees that he does not know what the willingness is for. And  now he must attain a state that may remain impossible for a long,
M:4.10  a “period of achievement.” It is here that learning is consolidated.  Now what was seen as merely shadows before becomes solid gains, to be
M:4.16  the inevitable result of gentleness. Gentleness means that fear is  now impossible, and what could come to interfere with joy? The open
M:4.20  right as is the answer. And this is true for everything that happens  now or in the future. The past as well held no mistakes—nothing
M:4.24  they could never have conceived of such a change. Nothing is  now as it was formerly. Nothing but sparkles now which seemed so dull
M:4.24  a change. Nothing is now as it was formerly. Nothing but sparkles  now which seemed so dull and lifeless before. And above all are all
M:4.24  for threat is gone. No clouds remain to hide the face of Christ.  Now is the goal achieved. Forgiveness is the final goal of the
M:5.3  is. But if he chooses death himself, his weakness is his strength.  Now has he given himself what God would give to him and thus entirely
M:5.7  What do guilt and sickness, pain, disaster, and all suffering mean  now? Having no purpose, they are gone. And with them also go all the
M:7.1  concerned about the result of healing is to limit the healing. It is  now the teacher of God himself whose mind needs to be healed. And it
M:7.1  mind needs to be healed. And it is this he must facilitate. He is  now the patient, and he must so regard himself. He has made a mistake
M:7.2  maximal, because the Holy Spirit so accepted it and so used it.  Now the teacher of God has only one course to follow. He must use his
M:10.3  that his judgment would be wholly fair to everyone on whom it rests,  now and in the future. Who is in a position to do this? Who except in
M:10.5  lay judgment down, not with regret but with a sigh of gratitude.  Now are you free of a burden so great that you could merely stagger
M:10.5  and fall down beneath it. And it was all illusion. Nothing more.  Now can the teacher of God rise up unburdened and walk lightly on.
M:10.5  with judgment. He gave himself to Him Whose judgment he has chosen  now to trust instead of his own. Now he makes no mistakes. His Guide
M:10.5  to Him Whose judgment he has chosen now to trust instead of his own.  Now he makes no mistakes. His Guide is sure. And where he came to
M:10.5  Guide is sure. And where he came to judge, he comes to bless. Where  now he laughs, he used to come to weep.
M:10.6  sickening despair and fear of death—all these have come of it. And  now he knows that these things need not be. Not one is true. For he
M:11.4  to welcome peace. And peace descends on it in joyous answer. Peace  now belongs here, because a thought of God has entered. What else but
M:11.4  gracious Presence, and it leans down in answer to raise it up again.  Now is the question different. It is no longer, “Can peace be
M:12.1  the Self Who is the Son of God. He who was always wholly spirit  now no longer sees Himself as a body or even as in a body. Therefore
M:12.2  a change of mind. Nothing external alters, but everything internal  now reflects only the Love of God. God can no longer be feared, for
M:12.2  minds are one; their joining is complete. And God works through them  now as One, for that is what they are.
M:12.5  is. He does not suffer either in going or remaining. Sickness is  now impossible to him.
M:13.1  the nothingness from which it came when there is no more use for it.  Now its real meaning is a lesson. Like all lessons, it is an

M:13.6  want? You have been called by God, and you have answered. Would you  now sacrifice that Call? Few have heard it as yet, and they can but
M:14.1  and ending guilt forever. So ends the world that guilt had made, for  now it has no purpose and is gone. The father of illusions is the
M:14.5  for what they teach are lessons in which Heaven is reflected. And  now sit down in true humility and realize that all God would have you
M:15.2  forever in the Heart of God. Where is the world and where is sorrow  now?
M:17.5  of guilt. Who usurps the place of God and takes it for himself  now has a deadly “enemy.” And he must stand alone in his protection
M:17.7 But what will  now be your reaction to all magic thoughts? They can but reawaken
M:17.7  has guilt already raised madness to the throne of God Himself. And  now there is no hope. Except to kill. Here is salvation now. An angry
M:17.7  Himself. And now there is no hope. Except to kill. Here is salvation  now. An angry Father pursues His guilty Son. Kill or be killed, for
M:17.8  never justified. Once this is even dimly grasped, the way is open.  Now it is possible to take the next step. The interpretation can be
M:17.9  yet is the anger certain witness that you do believe in it as fact.  Now is escape impossible until you see you have responded to your own
M:17.9  projected on an outside world. Let this grim sword be taken from you  now. There is no death. This sword does not exist. The fear of God is
M:18.2  the truth about themselves. Through them, the Holy Spirit can  now speak of the reality of the Son of God. Now He can remind the
M:18.2  the Holy Spirit can now speak of the reality of the Son of God.  Now He can remind the world of sinlessness, the one unchanged,
M:18.2  the one unchanged, unchangeable condition of all that God created.  Now He can speak the Word of God to listening ears and bring Christ's
M:18.2  to listening ears and bring Christ's vision to the eyes that see.  Now is He free to teach all minds the truth of what they are, so they
M:18.2  truth of what they are, so they will gladly be returned to Him. And  now is guilt forgiven, overlooked completely in His sight and in
M:18.3  belief is taken as replacement for God's Word. The body's eyes  now “see”; its ears alone are thought to hear. Its little space and
M:19.4  to God the lens of warped perception through which you look.  Now it belongs to Him and not to you. You are afraid of Him and do
M:19.5  rests, the mind is still, and light returns again. Vision is  now restored. What had been lost has now been found. The peace of God
M:19.5  light returns again. Vision is now restored. What had been lost has  now been found. The peace of God descends on all the world and we can
M:20.3  Yet when peace is found, the war is meaningless. And it is conflict  now that is perceived as non-existent and unreal.
M:20.4  will certainly return. War is again accepted as the one reality.  Now must you once again lay down your sword, although you may not
M:20.4  picked it up again. But you will learn, as you remember even faintly  now what happiness was yours without it, that you must have taken it
M:20.4  that you must have taken it again as your defense. Stop for a moment  now and think of this: is conflict what you want, or is God's peace
M:20.6  reality. In truth there is no conflict, because His Will is yours.  Now is the mighty Will of God Himself His gift to you. He does not
M:22.5  correct mistakes, and distorted perception does not heal. Step back  now, teacher of God. You have been wrong. Lead not the way, for you
M:22.7  where healing should be given and where it should be withheld.  Now can he say with God, “This is my beloved Son, created perfect and
M:23.2  doing he has recognized all living things as part of him. There is  now no limit on his power, because it is the Power of God. So has his
M:23.6  him, for he did not go alone. And you were with him then, as you are  now.
M:24.2  would not, under any circumstances, be the problem to be dealt with  now. If it were responsible for some of the difficulties the
M:24.2  were responsible for some of the difficulties the individual faces  now, his task would still be only to escape from them now. If he is
M:24.2  faces now, his task would still be only to escape from them  now. If he is laying the groundwork for a future life, he can still
M:24.2  for a future life, he can still work out his salvation only  now. To some there may be comfort in the concept, and if it heartens
M:24.6  in the future. Heaven is here. There is nowhere else. Heaven is  now. There is no other time. No teaching that does not lead to this
M:25.5  Yet, given a remaining wish to be deceived, deception is made easy.  Now the “power” is no longer a genuine ability and cannot be used
M:27.1  and dying in the end? We have asked this question before, but  now we need to consider it still more carefully. It is the one fixed,
M:27.2  that life is real. Death has become life's symbol. His world is  now a battleground where contradiction reigns and opposites make
M:27.5  sharply evident. Death is indeed the death of God if He is Love. And  now His own creation must stand in fear of Him. He is not Father but
M:27.7  What seems to die has but been misperceived and carried to illusion.  Now it becomes your task to let the illusion be brought to the truth.
M:27.7  Nothing but this: the realization that the Son of God is guiltless  now and forever. Nothing but this. But do not let yourself forget it
M:28.2  Thus is all the thinking of the world reversed entirely. Life is  now recognized as salvation, and pain and misery of any kind
M:28.3  contradict the Word of God. There is no opposition to the truth. And  now the truth can come at last. How quickly will it come as it is
M:28.4  a stir of deep anticipation, for the time of everlasting things is  now at hand. There is no death. The Son of God is free. And in his
M:28.4  God is free. And in his freedom is the end of fear. No hidden places  now remain on earth to shelter sick illusions, dreams of fear, and
M:28.5  Now there are no distinctions. Differences have disappeared, and Love
M:29.7  and all things are given you. Not in the future but immediately— now. God does not wait, for waiting implies time and He is timeless.
M:29.8 And  now in all your doings be you blessed. God turns to you for help to

A Course of Love (860)

C:P.1  in miracles. It is a required course. The time for you to take it is  now. You are ready and miracles are needed.
C:P.18  as God created you. It is the difference between wanting to know God  now, and wanting to wait to know God until you have decided you are
C:P.43  Self from you but only can obscure it. Thus the teachings you need  now are to help you separate the ego from your Self, to help you
C:1.6  carried with you to the new world. So you might as well let them go  now.
C:1.7  luggage with you everywhere just in case you might need something.  Now you are beginning to trust that you will not need these things
C:1.7  in hand. But as you glimpse what was once a distant shore and  now is near, you realize none of what you formerly possessed and
C:2.9  love, and, with that recognition, of ending the insanity you  now perceive.
C:2.15  has brought what comfort you would accept to your troubled mind.  Now turn to me to comfort your troubled heart.
C:2.23  home, away from cries of agony, defeat, and vainglory is all that  now is sought. A state of neutrality is where the return begins.
C:3.5 All that you  now see are but symbols of what is really there before you, in glory
C:3.9 You who are looking for help wonder  now how this would help you. What is there left to say that has not
C:3.9  are, not the symbols that they represent. An idea of love is planted  now, in a garden rich with what will make it grow.
C:3.14  for this is where this learning enters and will stay. Your heart is  now your eyes and ears. Your mind can remain within your concept of
C:3.14  mind can remain within your concept of the brain, for we bypass it  now and send it no information to process, no data for it to compute.
C:3.18  take heart. Such foolishness as your heart's desires will save you  now. Remember it is your heart that yearns for home. Your heart that
C:3.22 Your thoughts might lead you to a dozen answers  now, more for some and less for others, your answers depending on the
C:3.23  not that love can be kept apart from life in any way. But we begin  now to take life's judgment from it, the judgments gained by your
C:4.12  For that kind and gentle stance you do not believe will serve you  now, that blindness and self-sacrifice is something to be gained at
C:4.20 A thing set apart from the madness of the world is useful  now. It may not be what love is, but what love is has guided you in
C:5.3  learn, because it is only in union with me that you are your Self.  Now we must expand your understanding of union and of relationship as
C:5.7 We are beginning  now to paint you a new picture, a picture of things unseen before but
C:5.8 “Ah,” you think when you find love, “now my heart is singing;  now I know what love is all about.” And you attach the love you have
C:5.23  Rather than feeling as if you have gained, feelings of loss will  now be what you fight to overcome. What have you done wrong, you
C:5.25  for what has once failed to work will surely fail again. Stop  now and give up what you think you want.
C:5.26 Stop  now and realize your reaction to these words, the strength of your
C:5.32 Remember  now one lovely day, for each of you has had at least one that was a

C:6.9  the truth will bring. What could be more insane than that which you  now call sanity? What loss can there be in joining with what is so
C:6.10  too sterile. To have every day the same would be uninteresting  now. Perhaps later. Maybe when you are old and have grown weary of
C:6.17  for anyone to achieve what they would achieve. The challenge  now is in creation rather than accomplishment. With peace,
C:6.19 Think about this  now—for how could heaven be a separate place? A piece of geography
C:7.1 A major thought reversal is required  now before we can go on. It has been stated and emphasized countless
C:7.2  must be total for you to receive in truth. We will concentrate more  now, however, on withholding than on giving for you do not yet
C:7.4  your existence would seem to serve even less purpose than it does  now. Thus that which is most separate, or that which you have
C:7.5  piece is held within your heart, and it is this piece with which we  now will work.
C:7.9 Let us return  now to what you would withhold, and see the effects that this
C:7.11  and there you build them into reasons for even further withholding.  Now you have an excuse—or several excuses—for a bad day. Why
C:7.12  the burden of what you hang onto becomes more than you can bear.  Now you look for one upon whom you can unload your burdens, hoping
C:7.15  for yourself without withholding it from someone else. You have  now set yourself up in a position to withhold your intelligence from
C:7.17 We must return  now to relationship and correct as quickly as possible any erroneous
C:7.17  different from the objects, persons, or situations related to.  Now we must expand on this idea.
C:7.20  nor will it be until your understanding is greater than it is  now. For you cannot give up the only reality you know without
C:8.1  own Self. Emotions, the thoughts of your heart, are what we will  now work with, separating as we do the truth from your perception of
C:8.10  is available in a place other than on the surface is useful to us  now, as is your recognition that something other than what appears on
C:8.11  than from the grace-filled place of union. Perhaps you are thinking  now that if you knew how this union worked you would surely use it to
C:8.13 Do you see  now why unity and wholeness go hand in hand? Why you cannot withhold
C:8.14 We have talked  now of what is on the surface. Let us try an experiment.
C:8.15 Think of your body  now as the surface of your existence and look upon it. Stand back
C:8.15  the truth of who you are, no matter how much it appears to be. For  now, let's consider it the surface aspect of your existence.
C:8.18  Now that you are standing back from your body, participating in this
C:8.26  to teach you what you needed to learn to lead you to a success you  now enjoy.
C:9.2  or the other little selves you deem under yours. But remember  now how like to creation in form if not in substance what you have
C:9.5  each thing you see in it. How many items would you keep that you  now look upon? Your body too was created for its usefulness. It sets
C:9.5  in your room is set apart by what it is useful for. Ask yourself  now: To whom is your body useful? This question does not apply to
C:9.9  Now you seek to know how to escape what you have made. To do so you
C:9.9  This you are not ready yet to do, but this is what your heart will  now prepare you for. As you are prepared, you walk alongside he who
C:9.9  you chose to let lead you to this strange world. You travel lightly  now where before you walked in chains. You travel now with a
C:9.9  You travel lightly now where before you walked in chains. You travel  now with a companion who knows you as you are and would show your
C:9.10 Look upon your body  now as you earlier looked upon the space you occupy. Take away the
C:9.10  Take away the body's usefulness. Would you keep that which you  now look upon? As you stand back and observe your body, always with
C:9.10  have made can, for its only purpose is your use. Choose to use it  now to return you to your real Self, and the new purpose you
C:9.12 As stated before, what is most useful to us  now is your perception of your heart. Your illusions concerning it,
C:9.21 Think  now of one of those you have identified as living the life of fear
C:9.22 You may be thinking  now that what I have just told you is not an answer is precisely what
C:9.33  happiness and power to that which you have made! It matters little  now that in so doing you once again imitated what your faulty memory
C:9.34  has allowed you to make of yourself and your world what you will.  Now you look upon this world with guilt and see it as evidence of
C:9.50  expand on the lessons you are learning by observing your own self.  Now we seek to uncover the illusion that you can be used by your
C:10.2  Now we must return to the concept of relationship, for the thought of
C:10.8  to discourage you, but to encourage you not to give up. Your purpose  now is the holiest possible and all of heaven is with you. All that
C:10.13  is that you are in union with your brothers and sisters, right  now, today. To believe in God without understanding God is one thing.
C:10.16  of what you made it for and in terms of the way in which you can  now be guided to use it for the benefit of all.
C:10.24  your thoughts without the benefit of your ears. You may be saying  now, “Of course that is the way we hear our thoughts—it is the
C:10.28 Keep going  now for this is but a beginning. Experiment, just for the fun of it,
C:11.3  like the idea that those who would instruct you know more than you  now know, and why you begin each new course of learning by feeling as
C:11.6  is based on union. Your faith in what you have made has been shaken  now, and you realize you would like to place your faith elsewhere.
C:11.14  you will feel the shift of cause and quit worrying about effect. For  now what you desire are effects, without realizing cause must shift
C:12.7 Admit  now your desire to rest, a desire that could make you weep and make
C:12.12  ago you evolved from a form different than that which you inhabit  now; but certainly within the laws of evolution, you have changed as
C:12.25  Now, carry this pattern forward, for the pattern of God's extension
C:14.1  your brothers and your sisters has been to challenge God's creation.  Now your united purpose must change to that of remembering who you
C:14.7 You who have made a god of reason and of intellect, think carefully  now of what your reason and your intellect have made for you. How
C:14.14 It is your response to love that concerns us  now, for the return of love is coming and you do not want to make the
C:14.23  the same purpose, but bid it do the job of rewarding you here and  now. It, like heaven, is your proof that you are good and worthy,
C:15.1 We have talked much  now of your special love for others, but what of the specialness you
C:15.8 For  now we come upon a linchpin in your plan for specialness—one of
C:16.2 You may ask  now why it doesn't seem so, and the only answer is that you do not
C:16.3  or criminal, and claim that it is not love he seeks, and that he is  now less than those who once were the same as he. What is the same
C:16.15  asked to live a life of even greater risk than that which you live  now.
C:17.5  as lacking much of what you have judged to be good in the world you  now perceive.
C:17.12 See you  now why those who judge cannot enter heaven? Judgment proceeds from
C:17.13  Being an observer of your body has prepared you for this. Step back  now to the place that has been held for you. You have not lost “your
C:17.17 —a concept you do not understand for it is beyond concepts. But  now we begin to integrate your learning as we move to wholeness. The
C:17.18 What is the same cannot have different functions. And  now your mind and heart must work together in the united function we
C:18.2  circle but would fall, each end suspended in space. The chain would  now be a line seeming to go from here to there, instead of enclosing
C:18.3  Now imagine further that this chain is keeping the Earth in its
C:18.8  those who comprise it, and imagine the life that you experience  now taking place much like that you would see projected on a movie
C:18.8  are also part of the projection, and this is where your awareness  now abides, seemingly trapped upon the screen, viewing everything
C:18.9  not imagine what this world would be like any more than you can  now imagine what a united world will be like. You did not understand,
C:18.10  believable is to alter what you experience. The state in which you  now exist was not only unbelievable but also inconceivable to you in
C:18.10  was required in order to alter your belief system and is required  now as well.
C:18.14  is born, it exists in relationship to its creator. All that remains  now is a choice of participation. In unity, all that you desired was
C:18.16  from mind to heart. This is a first step in what will seem  now like an attempt to balance two separate things, but is really an
C:18.17  this Course of Love is that you dedicate all thought to union. This  now must be seen in two dimensions rather than one. In addition to
C:18.21  the means by which communion can return to you. So what we speak of  now is integrating remembrance and thought.
C:19.9  for yourself and a few others rather than belovedness for all. But  now, perhaps, you are ready.
C:19.15  of others. Yet, in the case of coming to know what lies before you  now—coming to know your own Self—it is obvious that another's
C:19.18  asking. You but asked for your separated state and it was made so.  Now you need to but ask for unity to return for it to be so. The
C:19.18  It is this non-belief in a response that makes it capable of asking.  Now that you are beginning to shed the concept of the separate self
C:19.20 My brothers and sisters in Christ, do not become impatient  now. We are on the home stretch and all you long for is nearer than
C:19.23  The way you have perceived of yourself and your world until  now has not been right-minded, and you are beginning to realize this.
C:19.23  been right-minded, and you are beginning to realize this. Thus it is  now appropriate for the realization to come to you that your mind,
C:20.1 Your longing  now has reached a fever pitch, a burning in your heart quite
C:20.2 This is a call to move  now into my embrace and let yourself be comforted. Let the tears fall
C:20.7 We have returned to the embrace. And  now your arms cradle me as well, for an embrace, although it may
C:20.8 And  now we begin to see with the eyes of our heart. We are no longer
C:20.16  nor for the feeling of abandonment so many of you have felt. You are  now within the embrace where all such hurts are healed.
C:20.31  has been rejected. You have long embraced fear and rejected love.  Now the reverse is true. This reversal of truth has changed the
C:20.34  one heartbeat. The world, the universe, is your partner—and only  now do you hear the music that brings grace to all your movements,
C:20.35 You have not before  now been able to even imagine knowing what you do. You hope to have
C:21.2  is found. This will be discussed in more detail later, but for  now, I return you, through the embrace, to the holy relationship but
C:21.3  Concepts that cannot be felt with your heart are of no use to you  now, for they are meant for their usefulness rather than for their
C:21.6 The embrace can  now be likened to the starting point of a shared language, a language
C:22.1 We will talk much more of imagining  now, and you may, at first, be resistant to this instruction. To
C:22.1  you deem appropriate. Please assure yourself, as I assure you, that  now is an appropriate time, an essential time, for such activity.
C:22.2  have not as yet discussed how this relationship is provided in form.  Now we will do so.
C:23.9  having to do with physical proximity, think of this example.  Now imagine communities of faith. Around the world, people are united
C:23.13  is what is required to cause this to be so. It is what is necessary  now. It will change the world.
C:23.22  for the new. It allows your form to reflect what and who you are  now in terms that coincide with the “you” whom you have always been.
C:25.9 Devotion leads to harmony through action. This is possible for you  now only if you have integrated the most basic teaching of this
C:25.13 An attitude of invulnerability is necessary  now. It is not arrogance or a means by which to flirt with risk and
C:26.8 This is what we  now leave behind as we seek to become involved with life. I say we
C:26.14  and impatience has been building. This buildup has been necessary.  Now, like an explosion waiting to happen, it only needs a trigger to
C:26.15  explosion. It is as if you have been waiting for someone to whisper:  Now! The whisper has come. The time is now.
C:26.15  for someone to whisper: Now! The whisper has come. The time is  now.
C:26.22  all that 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.
C:26.27  unity, oneness with God. I ushered in the new way that you are  now longing to adopt. I ushered in a time of being.
C:27.1 We return  now to what your being is. Being is. As love is. You have attached
C:27.11  that you cannot accomplish “on your own” or with the concept you  now hold of yourself. Just as you can look about and see that no two
C:27.21 You are ready  now, and all that will you prevent you from living a life of love is
C:27.21  one remaining source of such unwillingness. Your willingness will  now depend on whether or not you trust. Do you trust these words? Do
C:28.10  to grow. Because you believe it, this is, at first, quite true. But  now it is no longer the time to rely on conviction that comes from
C:28.10  along your way. They serve a limited purpose for a limited time.  Now is the time to step beyond the validation that your teachers can
C:28.12  form misses the point of what you have gained. You may be asking  now, “Are you saying to do nothing?” At the thought of this you will
C:29.2  integrated this Course's definition of service into your lives. But  now you shall. For you cannot bring the learning you have done here
C:29.9  of mist, of clouds before the sun. Your hand is outstretched  now and your light is clearing away the mist. The gateway to unity
C:29.11  against ideas of service. You have no time for more than you do  now, and you think of service, if you think of it at all, as
C:29.19 As you once chose separation you can  now choose unity. Not knowing that unity was a choice prevented you
C:29.19  that unity was a choice prevented you from making this choice before  now. Now I tell you clearly, the choice is yours. Choose once again.
C:29.19  unity was a choice prevented you from making this choice before now.  Now I tell you clearly, the choice is yours. Choose once again.
C:29.26  The past nor the future matter not. All is available in the here and  now where giving and receiving occur.
C:30.8  word present, there is no infinitude, but only a vague concept of  now. This is the key concept that I not only knew but demonstrated.
C:30.11 What the Course is speaking of  now, in essence, is gain without loss. You will never be aware of
C:30.13 The source of love and its location is your own heart. Think  now of the created form, the body. When the heart stops beating, life
C:30.14  over the laws of God. Since perception arises from the mind, we must  now discuss the mind.
C:31.37  our Father and me as you have realized that you are here to learn.  Now, with a clear learning goal in mind, these idealized
C:32.1  looked to those who do not know the difference for your answers.  Now you can see that you need to look to a different source.
T1:1.4  experience memory provides that truth rather than illusion can  now be experienced and learned from. It is in the present-moment
T1:1.5  you believe you learned from illusion will have no meaning to you  now and will allow you to give up any remnants of false learning you
T1:1.6  you to trust in your heart, your reunited mind and heart will  now be called to act in unison. That A Course of Love instructed you
T1:1.6  this Course. The mechanics of the mind can in truth be left behind  now as we concentrate rather on the art of thought.
T1:1.7  for you to hear the wisdom of your heart and begin your return.  Now, in order to complete your return, mind and heart must work as
T1:1.9  in you, making you The Accomplished. As The Accomplished, you  now are able to access universal mind.
T1:1.10  only illusion and called it reality, the mind joined in union will  now, more and more, recognize only truth and experience only the
T1:1.12 Again your willingness is called upon. Be willing  now to apply the art of thought to the experience of truth.
T1:2.2  fear, to struggle, to effort, to control and protection, can all  now be seen as the product of the thoughts of your ego-mind.
T1:2.5  has begun and continues here as well. The difference is that you are  now ready to learn a new means of response to this unlearning and
T1:2.8  at learning have been valiant and are no cause for anxiety. But  now this alternative is being revealed to you, and it does call for a
T1:3.6  faith in what is, is a faith in miracles. Miracles are what you are  now asked to call upon. For calling upon miracles is an act of faith.
T1:3.7 I ask you  now to request a miracle.
T1:3.12  you this is no idle request. Whatever is necessary to convince you  now is what I will provide. Such is the urgency of the time, the
T1:3.14 This does not have to be done right  now if your fear is mightier than your willingness. But hold this
T1:3.14  be provided. Such is the urgency of your return to unity. If not  now, then soon, you will be asked to make this final choice, this
T1:3.26  Now we can address each of these fears, bringing to them the art of
T1:4.4  of your existence as a human being and as a gift of the Creator.  Now that we have more properly identified the miracle, you must see
T1:4.10 Think of all you  now feel responsible for and this lesson will become more clear.
T1:4.26  was said within A Course of Love, all fear is doubt about your self.  Now we must expand upon this thought, for doubt about your Self is
T1:4.27  not been reconciled with your experience here. This is what we will  now seek to do by putting an end to fear and ushering in, with this
T1:5.2 This is a two-fold fear that must be looked at carefully  now and with all the power of the art of thought. One aspect of this
T1:5.9  ego-mind that make the in-between state of the illusion in which you  now exist seem real. I must make a distinction here, between the
T1:5.11  of the ego-mind, as stated many times and in many ways, must  now be brought to completion.
T1:6.7 Memory is valuable to us  now because it relies not on perception. If perception were all that
T1:7.3 We are moving you  now away from all such beliefs to a knowing that precludes the need
T1:7.6 This is why we must speak  now of being human in a new way. We must reconcile the differences
T1:8.1  Will of God. I have told you that you are no different than I was.  Now I call you to be no different than I am.
T1:8.2  though you have known this not. For the resurrection and life are  now one and the same.
T1:8.4 I have come to you  now to reveal the one truth that has existed for the past two
T1:8.7  Now, how could one man's resurrection be the way or even a way. How
T1:8.8  as 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
T1:8.12 Mary is called upon  now as the myth to end all myths for in this example life alone is
T1:8.14  in form. The ability to resurrect in life. The ability to resurrect  now.
T1:8.16  one in truth. It is one more demonstration of what needs to occur  now, in this time, in order for the truth of the resurrection to be
T1:9.3 However, we are talking  now, in a certain sense, of an elevation of form. While this is
T1:9.5  Now you are asked to carry new life not in the womb but in the united
T1:9.15  would have been to protect and use that which you have most valued.  Now your response will have been changing. You will not see so much
T1:10.1  Now let me address the issue of the peace you have been experiencing
T1:10.1  to be feeling. There is a core of peace at the center of your Self  now and the issues that you choose to deal with will not affect that
T1:10.5 You used your free will to choose the human experience.  Now are you willing to use it to choose the Peace of God instead? Can
T1:10.6  within. You have chosen them for just this reason. But you can  now be an observer and look upon them as your brothers and sisters
T1:10.8  is no other peace. There is no other God. Whether you believe it  now or not, I assure you, within the Peace of God is all the joy of
T1:10.9  profound learning. You will think that you would not be who you are  now without experiences such as this one. You will think that I
T1:10.9  have already had them! I ask you not to give them up. Only to make  now a new choice.
T1:10.13  your inheritance. Yet let the memory of the truth return to you  now and you will see that peace is all you have sought learning to
T1:10.13  peace is all you have sought learning to attain. If you do not pause  now and accept that it is here, you will not know the Peace of God
T1:10.15  Now your final instruction is here. You who have found peace—live
T2:1.4  you may have determined that exploring your internal treasure is  now unnecessary. You may well be feeling a sense of relief in having
T2:1.4  feeling a sense of relief in having learned that who you are right  now is a being of perfection, and you may find in this a somewhat
T2:1.4  judgment behind, you judge your desire to be other than you are  now, including any desires related to those internal treasures you
T2:1.4  become abilities. You think this willingness to accept who you are  now is what this Course has led you to and evidence of your
T2:1.8  often used the idea of place as a teaching aid. But you are ready  now to begin to think without the need for form.
T2:3.4 This was stated early in A Course of Love and is returned to  now for a specific reason. While the truth that it is the Christ in
T2:3.4  been given little attention as you began your learning, it cannot  now be ignored. Now you have realized your learning. You have begun
T2:3.4  attention as you began your learning, it cannot now be ignored.  Now you have realized your learning. You have begun to see the
T2:3.4  of relevance even within the daily life you currently move through.  Now you must fully recognize the distinction between the ego-self
T2:3.4  was the self of learning and experience, and the Christ-Self that is  now the Self of learning and experience. You must take on the mantle
T2:3.5 It is this recognition that you are  now acting and living in the world as your Christ-Self rather than as
T2:4.1  the omega, eternity and infinity. It is not only life as you know it  now, but life in all its aspects. It is life beyond death as well as
T2:4.6  a learned ability for the swimmer and is a learned ability for you  now as you journey back to your real Self. It requires remembrance,
T2:4.7  to your reaction to all that occurs within your life. Let us look  now at your reaction to the idea put forth earlier of having a
T2:4.12  would bring you fulfillment. This is about recognizing who you are  now. This is not a quick fix that calls you to what might have been
T2:4.14  Now you may feel as if this Treatise has led around in a circle,
T2:4.14  you back only to contemplate again the acceptance of where you are  now. However, to accept where you are is not the same as accepting
T2:4.17  one thing is accomplished for another to begin. What is happening  now is happening in unison. As the old goes, the new arrives. There
T2:4.19  call that your heart alone can hear. As I have said, your heart has  now become your eyes and ears. Your heart hears only one call, one
T2:5.2  opportunities. Thus recognition of the different calls that may  now be heard is necessary.
T2:6.2  If time is but a measure of learning, and if your learning is  now at the stage at which it occurs in unison with unlearning, then
T2:6.2  the end of time as you know it is close at hand. If you can begin  now to think without the barriers of time you but place upon your
T2:6.6  than who you are in the present. Unity exists only in the here and  now of the present. There is no will be in unity. There is only what
T2:6.8  rather than of what is already accomplished that needs adjustment  now. As a tree exists fully accomplished within its seed and yet
T2:6.10  does mind and heart join in unity in the present, in the here and  now, so that you exist—even within form—as the only Son of God,
T2:7.5  That you exist in relationship with all is a belief that you must  now incorporate into living. Further, you must remember that
T2:7.6 This source is the ego. Even  now, the ego will take every opportunity that arises to prove to you
T2:7.19  you develop the discipline to express your true Self, as you are  now. This is the only way the Self you are now has to grow and
T2:7.19  true Self, as you are now. This is the only way the Self you are  now has to grow and change. This is the only means the Self you are
T2:7.19  now has to grow and change. This is the only means the Self you are  now has of giving and receiving as one. This is the only means
T2:8.1  your love relationships will provide a rich learning ground for you  now, they must also now be separated from all that would continue to
T2:8.1  will provide a rich learning ground for you now, they must also  now be separated from all that would continue to make them special.
T2:8.2  relationship is your Self. This is the learning ground on which you  now stand. All that prevents you from being who you are within these
T2:8.2  the nature of many relationships may be required to change. Remember  now that there is no loss but only gain, or you will feel threatened
T2:8.3  you are is but a mockery of relationship. The calls that come to you  now as signs and demands will not only aid you in your realization of
T2:8.6  onto the paths of seeking. The truth of yourself that you reveal  now will not become a new truth as you take a new path. Your path now
T2:8.6  now will not become a new truth as you take a new path. Your path  now is sure and its final acceptance necessary. You are the prodigal
T2:9.1 I ask you  now to remember a time when you felt from another the desire to help
T2:9.2  be inconceivable to you in the state of unity before you left it.  Now, they are just tools, as are many other means of practice that
T2:9.3 We are  now beginning to speak of the second aspect of treasure that was
T2:10.2  resign as your own teacher. This belief in the self as teacher has  now been replaced with the belief that you only learn in unity.
T2:10.3  such as “my brain just isn't working right today.” I want you  now to keep this example in mind as we explore learning in unity.
T2:10.6  from wants by a discussion of their shared nature, so too  now must knowing be distinguished from what you consider intelligence.
T2:11.1  and all you hold responsible for this truth. This forgiveness has  now extended in two distinct ways. First in forgiving your Creator
T2:11.1  a world that has taught you to want to be other than who you are.  Now our aim is to show you how to integrate the belief that you are a
T2:11.2  you no longer want to be other than who you are, and even though you  now have a much clearer understanding of who you are, you will find
T2:11.2  be forced to live by its laws. This will cause struggle and, as you  now know that struggle of any kind alerts you to the presence of ego,
T2:11.4  ego. As the ego has been the known identity of your existence until  now, it will, in a sense, be forever with you, much as the body that
T2:11.4  by you the power to do battle with the truth, or with God. Remember  now and always that you and God are one and that what you invite to
T2:11.9  of means and end being the same. Your devotion to this learning must  now be complete, your willingness total, your way of learning that of
T2:11.13 So let us  now, for the sake of continued learning, speak of separation in a new
T2:11.16  new way and the lack of value from this type of effort can surely  now be seen.
T2:12.13  this way of living be the expression of who you are and all that you  now remember. Let this remembrance grow and flourish as the garden
T2:12.14 Recognize  now that unity is within you and without you, in all you are and all
T2:13.1  to those put forth previously, a personal call from me to you. By  now you have seen that your fears of losing yourself to God were
T2:13.1  seen that your fears of losing yourself to God were unfounded. By  now you have seen that yourself does not need to stand separate and
T2:13.2  Now that you have been made ready, I am ready to return you to your
T2:13.2  you have been made ready, I am ready to return you to your Self.  Now that you have been made ready, it is time for us to have a
T2:13.2  discounted the personal self I experience in relationship with you.  Now, in unity, we are ready to be personal again.
T2:13.3  who laughs and loves and cries and shares with friends in a world  now different than the one you once perceived. I know of this world
T2:13.5  It is an attitude of praise and thankfulness that flows between us  now. The light of heaven shines not down upon you but is given and
T2:13.6  This is not such a frightening task. Let fear go and walk with me  now. Our journey together is just beginning as we return to the
T3:1.1  to others represented an ego-self who you believed yourself to be.  Now the ego has been separated from the personal self so that you may
T3:1.7  unity and you are left, perhaps, feeling unsure of the part you are  now to play. There is not one of you who has not begun to experience
T3:1.8  others and that this is the only way in which the personal self will  now continue to exist. This statement implies and acknowledges your
T3:1.9  awareness of your true Self from your mind. Your true Self is  now ready to come out of the mist of illusion in which it was hidden
T3:1.10 To say that the personal self will  now exist only as the self you present to others is to say that the
T3:1.10  the self you present to others is to say that the personal self will  now cease to be seen as your reality.
T3:1.13  the personal self from the ego-self. There is a danger even  now in focusing upon the self of the body, as this self has been so
T3:1.13  ego's thought system remain to be undone. This is atonement. We work  now to correct the errors of the past in the present, the only place
T3:2.4  is part of the foundation that has been built around this system.  Now, along with the beliefs put forth in “A Treatise on Unity,” you
T3:2.6 We leave all of this behind  now as we advance toward truth through returning to original purpose.
T3:2.10 Thus you stand at the beginning, with a Self  now devoid of the meaninglessness you but attempted to assign to it.
T3:2.11  the Self you believe you abandoned there. Be truthful with yourself  now and realize that what I speak of here is known to you. Realize
T3:2.11  We have worked, thus far, to change your idea of a vengeful God.  Now we work to change your idea of a vengeful self. For what else
T3:3.6 This is the vengeful self we eliminate  now. You have, in truth, replaced judgment with forgiveness, but you
T3:3.9  ideal community, away from all that has brought you to where you  now are, you might be able to put the beliefs of this Course into
T3:3.9  self you believe this Course calls you to be. Most of you have  now believed you are “good enough” for days or hours or moments, but
T3:3.10  worthy and unworthy, a list as endless as it was worthless. Realize  now the worthlessness of this idea and let it go.
T3:4.8  this or not matters not. This A Course of Love has accomplished.  Now the choice is before you to do one of two things: to proceed
T3:5.1 While you have just been told that you  now exist in a state of emptiness, this is not a state to be feared.
T3:5.6  in which I lived it, and has an appropriateness that continues even  now. I walked the earth in order to reveal a God of love. The
T3:5.7 The death of an only son, then as  now, would be seen as a sacrifice of enormous proportions; the
T3:6.6  release of bitterness and made you ready for this choice. Choose  now to leave your desire for reward, as well as all of your reasons
T3:7.1 As you have seen by  now, we have moved from talking of beliefs in “A Treatise on Unity,”
T3:7.2  that represent the truth of who you are and who God is, we speak  now of ideas or thoughts. If you believe that God created you with a
T3:7.9  Now you have seized upon even this idea and called it not treasure
T3:8.1  you have called things are but representations too and that we move  now beyond representations to meaning so that what you represent will
T3:8.1  and sisters scrambling in the dust. The work that is upon you  now is that of replacing the house of illusion once and for all with
T3:8.1  once and for all with the home of truth. The work that is upon you  now is that of revelation of the Source.
T3:8.4  you believe the personal self is comprised of the one identity you  now hold or the identity of many past lives, the identity you hold in
T3:8.10  in the house of illusion have wrought. These treasures that you  now enjoy would have seemed like miracles to them.
T3:8.13  does not have to be even while you have accepted that it is? Let us  now put an end to this acceptance through the birth of a new idea.
T3:9.1  accepts that this can be done and can be done by you in the here and  now. To accept these ideas without accepting their ability to be
T3:9.2 While you cannot  now see the chain of events that will make these ideas into a new
T3:9.3  it and held together by the learned ideas of the ego thought system.  Now you must imagine yourself walking outside of the doors of this
T3:9.6  who have followed me beyond the walls of the house of illusion are  now called to begin the act of revealing and creating anew the life
T3:10.1 A Course of Love talked much of remembering.  Now we must talk about forgetting. While nothing need be given up to
T3:10.1  practical lessons needed in regard to the life of the body that you  now will let serve our cause of creating heaven on earth.
T3:10.4  it is you fear, been able to bring those concerns to love, you can  now do so with blame. All you need do is catch yourself in the act of
T3:10.5  of blame is an idea of acceptance of what is, an idea that is needed  now.
T3:10.7  formerly reacted to every situation. Not one situation coming to you  now will be a repeat of the past. How can it be when the past was
T3:10.7  your time of unlearning what the past but seemed to teach you.  Now, while life may seem much unchanged in its outward appearance, it
T3:10.9  and that you are no longer called to doubt yourself. Your Self is  now your Christ-Self.
T3:10.11  yourself that the time for uncertainty is past. Uncertainty will not  now come to teach you lessons you have already learned but will only
T3:10.14 What we are doing  now is much like translating the learned thought system of the ego
T3:10.16  temptations of the human experience. These are what we will  now address.
T3:11.7 This is what you are  now called to do: Be aware that the love of God lives within you.
T3:11.14  truth. This is why the word see is consciously used here and why we  now refrain from use of the word perceive. Perception is gone as soon
T3:12.4  before, is the miracle. This miracle is the goal toward which we  now work.
T3:12.5  to your awareness the truth of your identity. By changing our goal  now, I am assuring you that you have become aware of the truth of
T3:12.8  “better” or more “right” before this choice was made than you are  now. You made a choice consistent with the laws of creation and the
T3:12.11  creation but there are stages of growth and change. Humankind is  now passing through a tremendous stage of growth and change. Are you
T3:13.1  Now that we have established the consistency of our former purpose,
T3:13.4 Broad brushstrokes have been made  now, giving you the beginnings of a vision of a life in physical form
T3:13.4  that has been accomplished. The new learning that lies ahead of you  now is simply learning in accordance with the new thought system of
T3:13.4  distinguish between love and fear as cause is all that is important  now as you will create the new according to what you believe to be
T3:13.5 Remember  now that pleasure and pain as perceived by the body are from the same
T3:13.9  really being represented in the life you live here. This you must  now do. You must represent the truth of these words with your life.
T3:14.1  While the foundation of fear, like the ego, will have left you  now, a pattern of behaving fearfully may still remain and as such be
T3:14.1  system will still exist within your mind and heart, as nothing can  now take this memory from you, but to experience the new thought
T3:14.2  system and living by a new thought system more clear. Because you  now are translating the thought system of the ego into the thought
T3:14.3 It should be becoming clear to you by  now that, although you dwell in the house of the truth, you are
T3:14.5 I am, however, the bringer of Good News.  Now I will repeat to you a piece of good news you may have forgotten:
T3:14.5  than who you are. What this means to the learning stage you are at  now is that you but think you are discontent with much of your life.
T3:14.10  you, at this point, still hold to yourself and call unforgivable,  now is the time to let them go. If you have read the paragraph above
T3:14.10  have not previously brought to love to be seen in a new light, are  now revealed in the light of truth.
T3:14.11  The suffering that has been chosen has been mighty. The choice  now is not a choice to explore the why behind it or to look for
T3:14.11  the why behind it or to look for remedies for the past. The choice  now is whether you want suffering to continue or want to abolish it
T3:14.11  of being called selfishness. Be self “less” rather than selfish  now and allow the self that you would blame to pass away into the
T3:14.14 We are writing a new first page, a new Genesis. It begins  now. It begins with the rebirth of a Self of love. It begins with the
T3:15.7 You must  now birth the idea that human beings do indeed change. While you have
T3:15.7  there is a core, a center to each that is unchangeable, you must  now give up the idea that this core or center has been represented by
T3:15.9 The new beginning you are called to  now is a new beginning that, like all others that you have offered or
T3:15.11  no need to learn the truth. The truth exists within you and you are  now aware of its reality.
T3:15.16 What we are adding  now to these beliefs is the idea that these beliefs can be
T3:16.6  keep this lag in time a constant, and make it seem as if what is  now is still awaiting replacement by what will be, is a change that
T3:16.15  Now you must forget the idea of needing to maintain specialness. A
T3:16.15  love relationships. You will realize that the love and the Self you  now have available to share in relationship are all that you would
T3:17.2  that what was observable was “other than” he who did the observing.  Now your science is proving to you the relationship between the
T3:17.4  As such, it was as much a new beginning as the new beginning you are  now called to. It required the learning of a new thought system, the
T3:17.5  of untruth in the mechanism of time, to the world in which you  now exist. It may seem ridiculous to say that the untrue can be
T3:17.6  Holy Spirit, are but word symbols that represent what is. So think  now of whatever stories you know of the Holy Spirit, stories that
T3:17.8  could not have returned to you. The “time” of the Holy Spirit has  now ended because the time of illusion is now called to an end. What
T3:17.8  of the Holy Spirit has now ended because the time of illusion is  now called to an end. What is finite has an end point and this is
T3:18.1  those who have not learned by the Holy Spirit will learn. They will  now learn through observation.
T3:18.2  have been unwilling to accept or learn an unobservable truth, will  now accept and learn from observable truth. This is why you must
T3:18.8  what is there. You must constantly remember that your observance is  now an act of worship and of devotion and that you are called to
T3:18.9  thought system of illusion, it is natural to realize that it will  now be instructed by the thought system of the truth. Thus your eyes
T3:18.10 We also  now link observance and ideas. Ideas form in the mind. You are used
T3:18.10  the relationship of the truth that unites all things and that must  now become observable.
T3:19.2  upon the physical. How could this be true when the physical is  now called upon to serve the greatest learning humankind has ever
T3:19.4  has been linked to temptations of the human experience. Let us  now dispel this link. The physical form has been blamed for choices
T3:19.11  that will seem to arise from bodily temptations. Although you will  now represent who you are in physical form in a new way, you can
T3:19.13  until it was represented in an observable manner, something you will  now do.
T3:20.1  and so but seemed to become a master that made of you a slave.  Now time must be thought of in a new way, a way that has to do with
T3:20.1  has at its base a false cause and so no effects that exist in truth.  Now, your every thought and action will have effect, and the choices
T3:20.3  and thus what you strive for in effectiveness is your own learning.  Now, rather than learning the truth, you are learning how to live by
T3:20.5 Let us  now link observation and the miracle. An easy illustration is
T3:21.8  truth is to deny other truths. There is only one truth. Untruth must  now be denied.
T3:21.10  self is the only place in which you have experience that can  now be used for a new purpose.
T3:21.17  Now however, you are being called to accept your true identity even
T3:21.20  sameness by some and will attract them to you and to the truth you  now will represent.
T3:21.21  could change the world has passed. The world is quite simply bigger  now and the identities of your personal selves split by far more than
T3:22.9 You are impatient  now to get on to the next level, the level of something new, the
T3:22.10  in matters of a personal nature. This very readiness is what I  now call your attention to as I complete this Treatise with lessons
T3:22.12 I return you  now to what I spoke of earlier as creative tension, the tension that
T3:22.13  and of what you desire, is an act that takes place in the here and  now that is and brings what is into existence. You believe that what
T3:22.13  believe that what does not appear to exist with you in the here and  now is not, and place it in a separate category, a category that only
T3:22.13  that only exists in the dualistic world of illusion where here and  now is separate from what will be. In the new world, the world where
T3:22.14  of what is, for your desire is of God and what you desire  now, contrary to what you would have desired in the early stages of
T3:22.14  the early stages of this Course, is the Will of God. What you desire  now is the Will of God because it is your true desire, your will and
T4:1.3  that will cause your mind to conclude that some are not chosen  now and that many were not chosen in the past.
T4:1.8  reject, say yes or say no, to learn this or to learn that, to learn  now or to learn later.
T4:1.11 The choice that lies before you  now concerns what it is you would come to know. The question asked
T4:1.11  you are willing to make the choice to come to know your Self and God  now. This is the same as being asked if you are willing to be the
T4:1.11  between truth and illusion, fear and love, unity and separation,  now and later. What you must understand is that all choices will lead
T4:1.13  many of you have come instinctively to feel, something is different  now. You are beginning to become excited by the feeling that
T4:1.13  been known? What could possibly make you believe it could come to be  now when it didn't come to be before?
T4:1.21 It is the truth that you have  now learned all that can be learned from this state of consciousness
T4:1.21  willingness to learn in a new way. The new way is here. If you are  now to learn directly, you are also now to share directly. This is
T4:1.21  The new way is here. If you are now to learn directly, you are also  now to share directly. This is the way of learning in relationship.
T4:1.22  a fear that once prevented the direct and observable learning that  now is available to you.
T4:1.23  so clearly able to see the contrast between good and evil and feel  now as if these distinctions have become more and more obscure. Some
T4:2.1  and will be can peacefully coexist with the unity that is here and  now in truth.
T4:2.2  outward in your seeking and saw within what you perceived without,  now you turn inward and reflect what you discover within outward.
T4:2.6 The production that has so long occupied you will  now serve you as you turn your productive and reproductive instincts
T4:2.13 Thus, you must examine your intention even  now and remove from it all ideas that were of the old way. You would
T4:2.15  was among the original reasons for this chosen experience. Observe  now the expressions of the self you are and have been. Although you
T4:2.15  of the self you are and have been. Although you are different  now than you were as a child, and different now than you were a few
T4:2.15  you are different now than you were as a child, and different  now than you were a few years ago, and different now than when you
T4:2.15  and different now than you were a few years ago, and different  now than when you began your learning of this Course, you are not
T4:2.15  you are not other than whom you have always been. Who you are  now was there when you were a child, and there in all the years since
T4:2.15  learning of this Course. Your awareness of the Self that you are  now was not present in the past, but you can truly now, with the
T4:2.15  Self that you are now was not present in the past, but you can truly  now, with the devotion of the observant, see that the Self you are
T4:2.15  now, with the devotion of the observant, see that the Self you are  now was indeed present, and the truth of who you were always.
T4:2.16  called to, the power of cause and its effect. This is the power you  now have within you, the power to observe the truth rather than
T4:2.21  Now I tell you something else and hope you will remember it and bid
T4:2.23 Think of this denial  now, for it is still evident in the pattern of your thinking. We have
T4:2.25  overriding point of what I have revealed to you. A new relationship  now exists between the physical and spiritual. It is not an indirect
T4:2.27  union, returned to you through the joining of mind and heart, will  now reveal to you the truth of what was created and allow you to
T4:2.29  love where there is cause for fear. You must remember that you are  now called to see without judgment. To see without judgment is to see
T4:2.30  although you are not aware of the extent of this change. Realize  now that you have come to recognize unity. You do not any longer see
T4:2.33  relationship through unity and relationship. This is your purpose  now, and this the curriculum to guide you to the fulfillment of your
T4:3.5  displacement of the nature of love with the nature of fear. What we  now are about is reversing this displacement and returning you to
T4:3.7  Now, as we reverse this set of circumstances, and replace the world
T4:3.9 The vision that will arise in you  now is not new. It is your natural vision, the vision of love. What
T4:3.15  that has been fulfilled. It is you who have chosen the means.  Now a new choice is before you.
T4:4.6  as one of life-giving union. I called you then and I call you  now to this inheritance.
T4:4.8  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 of the
T4:4.16  worked throughout this Course to return your true identity to you  now? The joining of heart and mind in relationship is the joining of
T4:4.16  personal self with the true Self in the reality in which you exist  now. Remember, the heart must abide in the reality where you think
T4:5.11 I am calling you to make this choice  now. This is not a choice automatic to you in human form or even upon
T4:5.11  You are given the chance, just as you are being given the chance  now, to choose your true nature with your free will.
T4:5.12 Because you have  now made a new choice, a collective choice as one body, one
T4:5.12  your death that you chose direct revelation by God. Think about this  now and you will see that it is true. You hoped to live a good life
T4:5.12  transformed you. The direct revelations that will come to you  now will transform you as surely as did those that came to so many
T4:5.13  you truly; it is no different than the time that is upon you right  now. The afterlife has simply been a time of increased choice because
T4:5.13  the way in which your life will continue. The same is true right  now! For this is the time of Christ and thus of your ability to
T4:6.1  Now I ask you to consider the part you play in the creation of this
T4:6.8 You have the unequalled opportunity  now, because you exist in the Time of Christ, to directly share
T4:7.2  and God cannot help but grow through the direct and observable means  now available. Just as in the time of the Holy Spirit the spirit was
T4:7.3 Those of you who have acquired Christ-consciousness and are  now learning the vision of Christ-consciousness must realize the many
T4:7.3  of the unity that creates and sustains all living things will  now be as close to the surface of consciousness as was, during the
T4:7.5  judgment, and bound heart and body to this reality. Your heart has  now heard the appeal of this Course and worked with your mind to
T4:7.6  and body have joined in alignment to bring this learning about. They  now exist in harmony. Your mind and heart in union have brought
T4:7.7  poor health is no cause for judgment, as it is the perfect health,  now, in the past, and in the future, to bring you the lessons you
T4:8.1 You are  now beginning to reach the stage of understanding wherein you can
T4:8.1  physical form, and so began this experience of human life. You are  now beginning to be able to understand that it was God who made this
T4:8.2 I say you are only  now beginning to reach a stage where you can understand this, but
T4:8.2  you can understand this, but what I really mean is that you are only  now reaching a stage wherein you can know, within your inner being,
T4:8.2  inner being, that this is the truth. I say this because it is only  now that you can come to know this truth without reverting to old
T4:8.2  for all that has ensued since this choice. I say this because only  now are you beginning to be ready to hear that you and God are the
T4:8.17  you to awareness of your true identity. Be done with learning  now as you accept who you truly are.
T4:9.1  even this coursework comes to an end. It comes to an end here and  now as we move past study and learning to observation, vision, and
T4:9.2  come to an end. For this end to learning is the goal toward which we  now work.
T4:9.4 But  now the time is upon you to leave learned works behind in favor of
T4:9.4  learned works behind in favor of observation, vision and revelation.  Now is the time to leave behind study for imagining, envisioning, and
T4:9.4  time to leave behind study for imagining, envisioning, and desire.  Now is the time to move out of the time of becoming who you are to
T4:9.7  Be appreciative of every tool that has advanced your progress. But  now be willing to leave them behind.
T4:9.8  these called to a wisdom beyond their personal capacity.  Now these forerunners of the new, along with you, are called to step
T4:9.9  have risen in the esteem of your brothers and sisters, be beacons  now to the new. You who have gained so much through your learning and
T4:9.9  move beyond it would be an understandable choice, but you are needed  now. Needed to help establish the covenant of the new. Be not afraid,
T4:10.1  resigning as your own teacher, to becoming a true student, and to  now leading you beyond the time of being a student to the realization
T4:10.1  role and became comfortable in the true role of learner. You are  now asked to be willing to give up the role of learner and to believe
T4:10.2  will come to know anything new, or be anything beyond that which you  now are, without learning. Your thoughts might stray to ideas about
T4:10.3  the lessons contained therein. So how, you might ask, do you quit  now, doing what you have so long done?
T4:10.7 What we work toward  now is to advance from learning and producing things and perceived
T4:10.11  you and the expression of the Self of love in form is what you are  now ready to do. Learning was what was necessary in order to know who
T4:11.3  in Christ, as you once willingly resigned as your own teacher, I  now willingly resign as your teacher. In unity there is no need for
T4:12.9  religious, abandon not your churches, for you will find within them  now, direct experiences of sharing. If you have found guidance and
T4:12.9  word, abandon not the written word, for the written word will  now elicit direct experiences of sharing. If you have enjoyed
T4:12.10 All you must remember  now is that the time of learning is past. While you are still
T4:12.14  in the hopes that it would bring you to the state in which you  now abide! You dreaded each learning challenge because you feared
T4:12.20  let doubt of yourself take hold of you. Even though you are abiding  now in the state of Christ-consciousness, the pattern of the old
T4:12.21 Your “centeredness” must  now be focused on sharing in unity and relationship, and thus
T4:12.21  and relationship and thus creating unity and relationship are only  now being created by the one mind and heart that you share in unity
T4:12.24 You  now exist within a shared consciousness. The pattern of a shared
T4:12.27  which you will come to remember and share in unity that concerns you  now and what we are speaking of when we talk of patterns. There was a
D:1.5  fail to be prepared, for you are already accomplished. What will it  now take for your mind to accept this truth? For the mind's
D:1.12  of these invite a new identity. So, too, do we invite a new identity  now. While these sacraments have largely lost their meaning, the
D:1.12  these sacraments have largely lost their meaning, the sacrament I  now call you to restores meaning. Since new names are only symbols of
D:1.12  only be known within. It is to this state of grace that I call you  now, today: The state of grace of the newly identified child of God.
D:1.14  I am not less than I once was, but more. Where once I was empty, I  now am full. Where once I dwelt in darkness I now dwell in the light.
D:1.14  once I was empty, I now am full. Where once I dwelt in darkness I  now dwell in the light. Where once I had forgotten Now I remember who
D:1.14  in darkness I now dwell in the light. Where once I had forgotten  Now I remember who I Am. Now I go forth To live as who I Am within
D:1.14  in the light. Where once I had forgotten Now I remember who I Am.  Now I go forth To live as who I Am within the world To make cause and
D:1.16  remains only as an acceptance of insanity. What I will help you  now to do is to reject this insanity and to accept the perfect sanity
D:1.18 So what is it that we will  now do? If I do not teach, and you do not learn, what is our
D:1.22  state of knowing in which learning is no longer needed. You have  now come upon a curriculum that is impossible to learn. No teacher is
D:1.24  of purpose concerning your body. What once you saw as yourself, you  now must come to see only as a representation of your Self. You are
D:1.27 Thus we work  now toward acceptance of what you have learned in unity. We work
D:2.1 You are  now asked to do two things simultaneously: To accept the new and to
D:2.3  when you deny the patterns of the old. As you have been told, you  now “know what you do” and are no longer a victim to the circumstance
D:2.6  and even appropriate. In regard to the learning that you have  now completed, learning that has revealed the true nature of who you
D:2.10 It is proper  now to deny the modes of learning, even when they seemed to work for
D:2.15  was to return you to your true identity. Because we are working  now for the integration of your true identity into the self of form,
D:2.19  learned so that learning would not need to be endlessly repeated.  Now these systems and patterns have become so entrenched that no new
D:3.2  call to life. It is not of the past or the future but of the eternal  now. It is within you as we speak, the tone and timbre of this
D:3.3  the very purpose you have always desired. You are not purposeless  now. Your life is not meaningless. You are the ushers, the pioneers
D:3.7  and struggle. This is what is meant by surrender. We achieve victory  now through surrender, an active and total acceptance of what is
D:3.8  in “A Treatise on Unity and Its Recognition”. Let's talk of this  now as an idea, rather than as something learned, and as an idea for
D:3.10  oneness. Oneness replaces duality or contrast. You will be seeking  now for replacements for that which formerly ordered your life. Thus
D:3.12  and receiving as one be shared in form. Yet the elevated form, which  now represents the shared consciousness of the Self, is not separate
D:3.12  from the shared consciousness. Thus giving and receiving as one is  now the nature of the elevated Self of form, and what we work toward
D:3.16  has to do with that of which you are aware. To know what you  now know, and remain aware only of the reality of the separated self,
D:3.21  Now I realize that this is just the first step revealed and that many
D:3.21  you with a concept difficult to learn. What you need remember  now is that your separated self already learned this concept of
D:4.2  made you feel as if each being stood separate and alone, you are  now called to see no more. In unity you are whole and inseparable,
D:4.2  no more. In unity you are whole and inseparable, one living organism  now raised above the level of the organism as you become aware of
D:4.3 It is time  now for this idea to be accepted, for if it is not, you will remain
D:4.13  and we will talk much more of them and of the creative time we are  now entering. Thus far, we are merely working together to create a
D:4.16  loop. Obviously these systems, built as they were upon patterns  now being recreated, are part of the old.
D:4.18  a divine existence. That divine universe, our divine existence, is  now recreating the patterns that served the time of learning. What
D:4.20  Do not seek someone to tell you anew what to do with who you are  now that you are no longer a prisoner. Do not give keys to a new
D:4.25  build the new upon prison walls of old. Whatever imprisons you must  now be left behind.
D:4.26 Those of you  now protesting having heard what you have so longed to hear, protest
D:4.28  your release. You can only turn to what is, to what is left  now that the patterns and systems of learning are no longer.
D:4.29  order, or original design. As you have been returned to your Self,  now your life must be returned to where it fits within the divine
D:5.3 What we are doing  now is returning the world to its true representation. As was said in
D:5.8  an example here. The ego but seemed to be who you were for a time.  Now that you know who you are in truth, the ego does not remain, a
D:5.9 Thus must it be  now with everything in your world. Everywhere you look the lie of
D:5.10  learned to take judgment from your seeing, this must be reemphasized  now as you are called to see what you might previously have thought
D:5.11 Remember  now that you are not called to reinterpret but to accept revelation.
D:5.11  to you to remind you of who you are in the time of learning that is  now passing away. Thus all was given to you to represent what is
D:5.11  all was given to you to represent what is rather than to be what is.  Now, as you join with the truth, your representation, in the new time
D:5.12  in the time of learning are all that exist in all you see. But what  now will become of these patterns that are no longer needed as your
D:5.13  would be to create a tome of information, and this is not needed  now. The desire for such is a desire to think through once again the
D:5.17  that occur as this dialogue proceeds. What I am attempting to answer  now is your confusion concerning what is. This is crucial as you
D:5.17  the human spirit, the longing that has so long gone unfulfilled that  now that you are close you cannot bear to wait another day, another
D:5.17  to wait another day, another hour. You want release from your prison  now, and so you should.
D:5.18  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 whom you have
D:5.20  exist in perfect harmony with the universe? As you can see, you are  now approaching another thought reversal. Fear not that your
D:6.2  of the properties of the false that aided your learning may  now work as a detriment to your acceptance as you cling to ideas
D:6.4  of course, does not. Your belief in the non-existence of the ego is  now total and has brought a freedom and a liberation in which you
D:6.4  foreign to you and less and less comfortable. Thus what is required  now is a new way of envisioning the body and its service to you.
D:6.5  assisted us in bringing about the end of the time of learning. But  now your body—your form—must be seen in a new way. It is thus
D:6.13  Now if this were to happen, scientists would quickly determine the
D:6.17  one, you will begin to see the enormity of the thought reversal that  now awaits your acceptance. As I said earlier, we begin by applying
D:6.19  prevented it by abstaining from the unhealthy habits. You might look  now at these two attitudes and see that they are somewhat silly, but
D:6.21  system we are leaving behind. As a non-learning being you are  now called to accept that you no longer need this type of learning
D:6.22 Let us return  now to the beginning and start with the body as a given. It is what
D:6.22  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 might this
D:6.22  the design of the body represented? What might the bodily design  now represent?
D:6.24  true Self. You have accepted your true identity. How could the body  now be the same as it once was?
D:6.26 The body is  now the embodiment of the true Self, the embodiment of love, the
D:6.26  of divinity. Its existence is given as it was always given. But  now the very nature of its existence has changed. I say changed here
D:6.26  has always existed in the perfect harmony in which it was created.  Now that your Self has joined the elevated Self of form, you exist
D:6.26  portions of your Self missing from this new experience in form you  now enter into, but that the elevated Self of form is now able to
D:6.26  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 consciousness.
D:6.27  state of form and the state of unity, are both in existence right  now. In the state of unity, your true Self is fully aware of the
D:6.28  no longer a learning being, for what is time needed? Time is needed  now only for the transformation of the self from a learning being to
D:7.2  was used because you were still, at that time, a learning being.  Now we will adjust our language somewhat to represent the new and
D:7.4  place in time because experience, too, was designed for learning.  Now experience is needed in time to aid your total acceptance of what
D:7.7  self, existing as man or woman in a particular time in history.  Now you are called to discover how to exist in form without being
D:7.8  require you to be defined by particularity. You can accept the body  now as what it is in all its manifestations while not seeing it as
D:7.9  truly. You have not been aware of all that you are. You are thus  now called to discover and to become aware of all that you are. The
D:7.9  rather than aiding you in learning as it once did, will aid you  now in this discovery.
D:7.10  or body—because of the dualistic nature associated with them— now can love all of your Self, all of God, all of creation. You can
D:7.11 But again, we start with the body, returning love to it  now. It is what it is, and nothing that it is, is deserving of
D:7.14 Being in love is a definition of what you  now are as you accept the unconditional, nonjudgmental love of all.
D:7.14  to contain you. It was a relationship with the separated self.  Now, because your relationship is with wholeness, you can transfer
D:7.17  It is a step toward full acceptance and awareness of who you are  now and what this means as you become the elevated Self of form.
D:7.20 With your new awareness you are  now linked, through the consciousness of unity, with the entire field
D:7.20  you will begin to expand and express in new ways. Those ways thus  now include the form of your body without being limited to creation
D:7.26 In order to facilitate your understanding, I call you  now to imagine your body as a dot in the center of a circle and the
D:7.26  learned to view your body in the field of time. This will be helpful  now as you begin to imagine the “more” that you are, the “more” that
D:8.1  imagine your body as the dot within the circle, I ask you to imagine  now being able to take a step outside of the area of this dot, and
D:8.2  this first as a place where no learning is needed. Ah, you might say  now, this you have heard before. This idea of no longer needing to
D:8.7  of the new will naturally include much that goes beyond what you  now think of as your natural talents or abilities, the place or
D:8.8  Now this is not new information. Much of this was taught in “A
D:8.8  all of what you needed to learn was put forth. What we are  now doing is discussing what was taught from the realm of
D:9.4  life without reaching the place of fulfillment you have sought. Even  now, when you have learned all that you are in need of learning, the
D:9.6  and with your change, the truth, while it remains the truth, can  now be presented in a way that speaks to who you are now rather than
D:9.6  the truth, can now be presented in a way that speaks to who you are  now rather than who you were when you began A Course of Love.
D:9.8  remember your newness and the different aim toward which we  now work. The aims we clearly embraced together when you were still a
D:9.8  “A Treatise on the Art of Thought” was but a forerunner to what we  now will embrace together. It was a means and an end.
D:9.10  “A Treatise on the New” we established what lies beyond learning.  Now, as we embrace the new together, it must be realized again and
D:9.11  the territory of your conscious awareness. We do this by discussing  now the nature of ideas as opposed to the nature of thoughts.
D:9.13 This is how you must  now come to see your form; it is that through which what already
D:10.4  Now you might be thinking, here, that while these givens come from
D:11.4  beginning to the total rejection of thought as you know it that must  now occur in order to go on to creation of the new. You create the
D:11.6  of a time in which desire will no longer serve you, just as learning  now no longer serves you? If you reach a state of full acceptance of
D:11.8  Now I return you to your idea of how these words have come to you,
D:11.15  retain your desire to make an individual contribution, when you can  now make a contribution such as this? Is not your unique expression
D:11.18 Turn  now not to your thoughts, but to the mind and heart joined in unity.
D:12.4  this Course. You were told within this Course and you are reminded  now that these words enter through your heart. As your mind and heart
D:12.5  Now you may not “think” that you have been doing this, yet few of you
D:12.5  felt no “step” into the realm of unity, and you may rightly wonder  now, if you can take such a step and be unaware of it, what its value
D:12.6 This is why we work  now on your awareness and acceptance of your changed state, for
D:12.10 Let us  now consider “thinking” to be the active and often unwelcome voice
D:12.11  is that although thinking does not serve you, you do have, right  now, and have always had, true thoughts that come to you from your
D:12.14  Now that you are coming to a more clear idea of what the “thoughts”
D:13.8  and you will begin to see the evidence that things are different  now. Join with others who are coming to know through the state of
D:13.9 Just as you were taught that you could not learn on your own, you are  now being told by one who knows that you also do not come to the
D:13.11 We come  now to the second part of what we are exploring together here, the
D:14.4  testing this invulnerability. In a certain sense, these cautions are  now lessened. While you still are not to view your invulnerability as
D:14.7 It has been said often that revelation is of God, but remember  now that God is not “other than” and that the God who seemed so
D:14.7  God who seemed so distant from you when you abided in separation can  now be heard and seen and felt in your experiences of unity.
D:14.14  subtle memory of this state that is behind your striving to become.  Now you are beginning to see the vastness of what is meant by
D:15.1  been the same, and it will not be the same in the future as it is  now. But there are certain principles that govern creation. These
D:15.12  you to develop a relationship with all that passes through you.  Now is the time when the fruit of those efforts will be reaped. For
D:15.12  fruit of those efforts will be reaped. For what passes through you  now is a relationship without end. What passes through you now is the
D:15.12  you now is a relationship without end. What passes through you  now is the eternal come to replace the temporal.
D:15.15  to be. Continual and unblocked and aware pass-through is what we  now consider.
D:15.19  of your relationship with unity. You have experienced unity  now and you wish it to continue to serve you. You thus must strive to
D:15.21 Let this idea enter you  now. You have left behind the conditions of learning. Why? Because
D:15.22  accustomed to the thinner air, the view from above, to what you  now can see. You catch your breath and let the wind of spirit fill
D:16.1  that existed before the onset of the state of becoming. You are  now in the final stage of the state of becoming. You now know who you
D:16.1  You are now in the final stage of the state of becoming. You  now know who you are, and so now you can begin the work, or the
D:16.1  stage of the state of becoming. You now know who you are, and so  now you can begin the work, or the relationship of this final stage:
D:16.2 The creation story is occurring, right  now, in each of you who have reached this final stage of becoming.
D:16.12  has not quite been accomplished in you. This is precisely why we  now discuss this state of becoming, this movement from image to
D:16.18  your former self, the image of your best self, who you may imagine  now, through the grace of God, you finally are. But this may also at
D:17.10  said within this Course, is a condition of the initiate. You have  now passed hope by as you have moved beyond the state of initiation.
D:17.11 You stand  now at the threshold. The stimulus has been provided, the journey
D:17.11  The stimulus has been provided, the journey taken. You are present.  Now is the time for your response.
D:17.13 What is different  now is that your wholeheartedness, as well as your desire, has moved
D:17.14  that were asked of you earlier, for they are even more pertinent  now. Do you think desire will still be with you when you have
D:17.14  of a time in which desire will no longer serve you, just as learning  now no longer serves you? If you reach a state of full acceptance of
D:17.15 Your heart is a full well. It is because you have  now turned to your heart, instead of to your thinking, that you feel
D:17.18  response to desire. It is an assumption of needs unfulfilled. You  now stand in fulfillment. This is the secret of succession.
D:17.19 Desire asks for a response. From where is this response sought? You  now must understand the fullness of the well of your heart, the
D:17.20 You have realized  now that you remain in a state of becoming, and any disappointment
D:Day1.6  Now that you have moved beyond the thought system of the ego self,
D:Day1.6  initiate, the time of waiting. You have chosen. You are merely asked  now to look at what you have chosen and to understand what you
D:Day1.11 Many people  now are discovering the power of healing. Some think this power comes
D:Day1.14  and lived the teachings that have brought you to this point which I  now would like to lead you beyond, the world would be a different
D:Day1.21 This fulfillment of scripture has  now occurred within you. When it occurred within me, it occurred
D:Day1.28  the story we share. The Bible and all holy texts can be seen clearly  now as one creation story. One story of one beginning. One story with
D:Day2.1  of me. Acceptance of your Self is acceptance of your inheritance.  Now is the time to come into full acceptance of the human self as
D:Day2.2  go the ego, re-viewed your life, unlearned previous patterns, and  now see the difference between the image you hold of yourself and
D:Day2.3  been reconciled. You can see the pattern of your life as clearly  now as if a masterful biography had been written of it. It is this
D:Day2.3  “haunting” to some of you. Your life is being seen more as a whole  now. The parts are fitting together. You can see how you have moved
D:Day2.4  many hardships over many projects that did not come to fruition, and  now has succeeded in inventing just what was always envisioned. This
D:Day2.6  shame; but the hurts you have done others may weigh heavily on you  now. It is as if, at this mountain peak, you have discovered a
D:Day2.10 Let me ask you  now, are these feelings—feelings that are attached to your belief
D:Day2.11  Now is the time for acceptance, even of these actions that you would
D:Day2.18  that it did not occur in time and space, just as yours is occurring  now in time and space. What this means is that what occurs in time
D:Day2.26 Willingness is  now upon humankind. What my life demonstrated but needs to be
D:Day3.1  is anger. We have already spoken of denial, albeit in a new way.  Now we will speak of anger, in both an old and a new way. Let me
D:Day3.2  for only through them did you learn. You are beginning to see  now that this learning was not a choice but only the way you knew
D:Day3.5  anger is a product of the condition of learning. It always was, but  now this is being revealed to you not just through my words, but by
D:Day3.12  learned during the time of learning that letting it go, even  now, still torments you with worry and anger. It is the idea of an
D:Day3.18  This resentment and envy fills you with anger. If you feel any anger  now, pay attention to its effect on you. You can feel, perhaps, the
D:Day3.25  true. What you learned is insane. But to realize the truth you must  now fully reject the untruths that you learned. You must fully reject
D:Day3.26  the teachings of A Course of Love. But beyond learning is where we  now stand. We now stand at the place of the rejection of learning—
D:Day3.26  of A Course of Love. But beyond learning is where we now stand. We  now stand at the place of the rejection of learning—the rejection
D:Day3.40 You have accepted  now, because of whatever experiences of unity you have had, that the
D:Day3.40  new source of entry. But these points do not advance our discussion  now and can be returned to later. The point here is your “concept” or
D:Day3.49  still and not worrying about money, or taking actions, right-actions  now, as opposed to your idea of the wrong-actions of the past, in
D:Day3.54 You might argue  now that what you do with great ideas and great talent is of
D:Day4.1  my arguments were not fed by anger, the arguments that arise  now for you will be and as such are actually appropriate to this
D:Day4.7  You all begin life without the ability to think in the terms you  now associate almost exclusively with thinking, the terms of having
D:Day4.10 You are here  now not to relearn or be taught what life is all about, not to
D:Day4.17  was purposeful. That challenge was meant then, and continues to mean  now, a call to a new choice. It asks that you challenge your
D:Day4.21  you have learned led to an inaccurate world-view in the here and  now, but to an inaccurate world-view of the past, of the hereafter,
D:Day4.34 There is a similar type of focus that will serve you  now. It is not a tool, as is meditation, for you are no longer in
D:Day4.36  We acknowledged that your desire is stronger than ever before.  Now is the time to focus on this desire and fulfillment, to stretch
D:Day4.42 Smile with me  now, as you think of yourself in this elevated place. You are still
D:Day4.46  love is. It means that you will resurrect to eternal life here and  now. It means no turning back, no return to fear or anger, no return
D:Day4.51  that you have not moved through the stages to full acceptance answer  now as to what is stopping you. Do you choose to dwell or to accept?
D:Day4.52  not so directly linked fear and the time of learning before, but  now you need to see their connection, for if you do not, you will not
D:Day5.1  than sustain the state of unity. This point of access will thus  now be discussed, both as an initial entry point and as a continued
D:Day5.3  what originates “within” coming from a point beyond the body is not  now too unbelievable to contemplate.
D:Day5.6 What we have focused on for some time  now is love. Love never changes. It thus is the same for each of us.
D:Day5.6  in exactly the same way as another. This is important to remember  now as you begin to work with your access to unity.
D:Day5.15 Realize here that although you are  now a part of a community seeking the same goal, the realization, or
D:Day5.17 Who you are  now, what your desires are, and where your talents have been
D:Day5.17  your talents have been recognized, are as given as the goal you  now desire to realize. Again I remind you that the sameness of union
D:Day5.21  focus on access. Wherever your chosen point of access lies, imagine  now the needle that was discussed as passing through the onion in the
D:Day5.21  intersection connecting with your chosen access point. Imagine this  now, not as a needle but as the wisdom you seek. Imagine this wisdom
D:Day5.26  this is when full access is attained. So we will continue our work  now in releasing you from those things that would still block your
D:Day6.1 We  now will discuss being the true Self while becoming the true Self—
D:Day6.11  between Creator and created. You are being who you are right  now and eliciting the expression that will take you to the final
D:Day6.12 You are not separate  now from who you will be when you reach completion! You are in and
D:Day6.13  Now, in returning to one of the main themes of this chapter—the
D:Day6.20  I had attained. The temptations of the human experience are the same  now as they were then. They are the same on the mountain top as they
D:Day6.29  Now let's address this seeming paradox. You have been told to do only
D:Day6.30  and pass-through. This is it! Right here in your life as it is right  now.
D:Day6.31  pass through you as you allow for and accept where you are right  now and who you are right now.
D:Day6.31  allow for and accept where you are right now and who you are right  now.
D:Day6.33 Let us speak  now of the conditions of the time of acceptance, for these will cheer
D:Day7.1 What does the idea of only  now coming to acceptance imply but that you were previously
D:Day7.3  love. Love is life giving and life supporting. There is thus nothing  now degenerating about life.
D:Day7.4 Life is  now supported. Support is thus a condition of the time of acceptance.
D:Day7.5 You must realize here that the pattern of learning is  now all that is left that can be degenerating to you. While you
D:Day7.5  learning was not one of support but one of effort. You must accept,  now, that the pattern of learning is an extension of fear and be
D:Day7.5  of abundance, you may still feel unsupported in form. Realize  now, that this makes no sense when our goal is the elevation of form.
D:Day7.7  of the time of acceptance that will be of great service to you  now is that of the different relationship that you will have with
D:Day7.7  is replaced by presence, by your ability to exist in the here and  now in acceptance and without fear.
D:Day7.10  and create a new universe. This condition of expansion is operative  now and beginning to find manifestation through the sharing we are
D:Day7.18 And yet what we are concerned about  now is the present. It is here, in this present and given time on the
D:Day8.1  conditions of the time of acceptance may not have cheered you fully.  Now, with the ideas of the conditions of the time of acceptance fresh
D:Day8.5  do not like your job, you have accepted your Self and where you are  now, rather than the external circumstance. We are not, when talking
D:Day8.7  Now you may have been thinking—again, at least subconsciously—
D:Day8.7  to an ideal self. Yet this ideal self is not the self you are right  now. You cannot accept only an ideal self. This is nonsense. Can you
D:Day8.8  through acceptance of the way you want to be but of the way you are  now. There will be many things within your life that will take some
D:Day8.16 This is the importance  now of accepting yourself in the present and of understanding
D:Day8.17  the lessons of the past or taken these steps toward elevation.  Now, however, it is crucial that you come to acceptance of yourself—
D:Day8.21  Now you must realize that you no longer have cause to fear your
D:Day8.22 If anger arises in you  now, it does not mean that you will react in whatever way anger once
D:Day8.22  the feeling itself. The feeling is provided by the body, a helpmate  now in your service as a route to true expression.
D:Day8.23 Remember always that we work  now to unite the Self of union with the self of form. The self of
D:Day8.23  of union with the self of form. The self of form cannot be denied  now. This is a continuation of the reversal of some of the ideas of
D:Day8.28  your true Self! To true representation of who you are—who you are  now!
D:Day8.30 I call you  now to embrace this freedom.
D:Day9.1  want, freedom from lack, freedom from repression, are what we will  now enjoy together on our mountain top retreat. We have not removed
D:Day9.2 Allow yourself,  now, to experience your arrival, your return to your true home, your
D:Day9.4  who do not as yet feel the freedom of the new, allow yourself  now, to do so. Allow freedom to reign, for it is your allowance, your
D:Day9.4  your permission, that will make it so. The only one who can stop you  now is yourself. The only permission you ever needed was your own.
D:Day9.7 Realize  now the truth of what you have just heard. While you know you have
D:Day9.10  your mind, no matter what form it takes, is still an image, and must  now be done without if you are going to realize freedom.
D:Day9.12 Realize  now that your ideal image, no matter how it was formed, is a product
D:Day9.21  This desire of “followers” to accept an image is less prevalent  now but still a common danger.
D:Day9.24  your ability to accept that you are your ideal self. Yes, even right  now, with all your seeming imperfections.
D:Day9.25  self. You can only express the beauty and truth of who you are  now, in the present. And you do. You just have not realized that you
D:Day9.30  Now we must return to you the freedom and the will to fan the flames
D:Day9.31  would long for in a place outside of, or beyond, the self you are  now.
D:Day9.32  is all these are—learning challenges. You seek learning challenges  now only because of the consistency with which you did so in the
D:Day9.32  challenge and so your natural pattern would be to keep going  now, to use the momentum of this learning success to achieve another.
D:Day10.2 See you  now why the certainty of union must be combined with the confidence
D:Day10.3  willingness to experience its cause and its effect. I am asking you  now to be willing to move from conviction to reliance. I am not
D:Day10.11  thought. This lack of trust works both for you and against you  now. It works for you in that you do not have to resist and reject an
D:Day10.12  was the perfect vehicle for learning in the time of learning, it is  now being transformed into the perfect vehicle for the realization of
D:Day10.14  you believe that your feelings have misled you in the past, you  now still doubt your feelings. Because you have doubted yourself in
D:Day10.14  your feelings. Because you have doubted yourself in the past, you  now still look for reassurances and proof that you are “right” before
D:Day10.17  your reliance to me and to the state of unity. This was purposeful.  Now, however, you are asked to return to wholeness, a state in which
D:Day10.18  the distinction between your Self and the man or woman you are.  Now you are called to forget what you have “learned” and to let all
D:Day10.20  ago will aide you in realizing that this is the voice that will  now animate the elevated Self of form, or in other words, you.
D:Day10.21  You can be both/and, rather than either/or. As I speak to you  now as the voice of Christ-consciousness—as your own true Self—
D:Day10.27  reigns and the spirit is free of the body. Yet if you were to think  now of a person whom you know who has died, you would not be likely
D:Day10.27  the elevated Self of form, as not much different than you are  now, but peaceful and free of the constraints of the body.
D:Day10.28  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 grave?
D:Day10.28  form or lack of form they now occupy, they do not like it, even  now, even beyond the grave?
D:Day10.31  the times in which I lived? Or do you not see that it is the same  now as then?
D:Day10.32  to call for extreme measures. The only extreme measure called for  now is the same extreme measure that I called for during my life. It
D:Day10.36  pursued separately from one another and from God—until recently.  Now unity is being sought and unity is being found.
D:Day10.38 As you can see, it is difficult for me, even  now, even in this final address to you as the man Jesus, to speak of
D:Day10.38  by love and to let all the feelings of love flowing through you  now find their expression. I desire, more than anything, your
D:Day10.39  inheritance. This is the gift of love I came to give and give newly  now, to you. Blessed brother and sister, we feel the same love, the
D:Day12.1  Now we listen to feelings. Now we listen to feelings and understand
D:Day12.1 Now we listen to feelings.  Now we listen to feelings and understand what they have to say to us.
D:Day12.1  we listen to feelings and understand what they have to say to us.  Now we listen with a new ear, the ear of the heart. Now we recognize
D:Day12.1  to say to us. Now we listen with a new ear, the ear of the heart.  Now we recognize the thoughts that would censor our feelings, calling
D:Day12.2  form but the reverse is true and has always been true. The body is  now ready to know that it is embodied, enclosed, surrounded, taken
D:Day12.2  surrounded, taken up, by consciousness. It is your feelings that  now will be the sense organs of this spaciousness. Not feelings of
D:Day12.2  or touch, but feelings of love of Self. Feelings of love of Self are  now what hold open the space of the Self, allowing the space to be.
D:Day12.5  imaginable. All you must do is listen to your Self. Your Self is  now a feeling, conscious space, unhindered by any obstacles of form.
D:Day13.1  The many selves who have come and gone since the beginning of time  now know themselves as the many and the one, the individual and the
D:Day13.1  This is the knowing in relationship that is available to you  now.
D:Day14.1  healed as well as the sick, the chaos and the peace. Thus we heal  now by calling on wholeness, accepting the healed self's ability to
D:Day14.6  learning to disclaim all that you have called your “own,” you are  now given the task of claiming your power as your own. All that is
D:Day14.7  to later, is the opposite of the holding within you are asked to do  now because those things that were held in a “holding pattern” were
D:Day14.10 Only  now, in your realization of your invisibility and spaciousness, do
D:Day14.12  are only one means, which is why this is called a dialogue. Realize  now that this is but one voice of the many. You have entered into the
D:Day14.13 You must  now own this dialogue—own it as you own the power that is yours.
D:Day15.13  pool? If not, what prevents you? Do not be too hard on yourself  now, for as has been said, the stones within your pools are like
D:Day15.27  and with all. This fallacy needs to be brought to your attention  now so that as you join in true spaciousness with those coming to
D:Day15.28  becoming self-less but about realizing your true identity. We have  now debunked your myths about your true identity being an idealized
D:Day15.28  myths about your true identity being an idealized form of the self.  Now are you ready, through your ability to view your own Self as well
D:Day16.7  course, a change in what you want to prove to yourself. All you may  now continue to seek proof of is that your feelings, rather than your
D:Day17.3 Why do we return to this  now, repeating what has been said before? Because we have reached the
D:Day17.6 This is why we return  now to your identity and the individuation of your identity.
D:Day17.12 What Jesus represented or demonstrated has  now been realized, which is why this is called the time of Christ.
D:Day17.12  Jesus. What could be taught and learned has been taught and learned.  Now it is time to move beyond what could be taught and learned to
D:Day17.12  and learned to what can only be realized through relationship.  Now is the time of the final revelation of what can be realized, or
D:Day18.1  even while moving into the new as they do so. Each way is as needed  now as it was two thousand years ago.
D:Day18.5  expression of what is within them. They realize that what is needed  now is needed in order to renew or resurrect the world and all who
D:Day18.7  that would aide understanding of the invisible. This is what you are  now called to do. Whether you demonstrate the myth of duality or the
D:Day18.9  that was able to occur to allow for a certain type of experience.  Now a new degree of union is occurring to allow for a new type of
D:Day20.1  Now we begin preparation for your transition to level ground. We
D:Day20.2 You have realized  now your relationship with the unknown and ceased to fear it. You
D:Day20.2  with the unknown and ceased to fear it. You are, perhaps, even eager  now, to move beyond the known to the unknown. You are perhaps eager
D:Day21.4  means, not the source. The source is oneness or union, a state you  now realize that you share and have access to.
D:Day21.6 You realize  now that life itself is a channel and that you are constantly
D:Day21.7  Now, however, there is no longer an “eventually.” Teacher and learner
D:Day21.7  thus neither are needed any longer. The “transfer” of knowledge is  now an act of giving and receiving as one. No intermediary is needed
D:Day21.9  consciousness you share in union and relationship with all. You have  now been told to own this dialogue and to realize that its wisdom is
D:Day22.1  to know yourself as channels without the need for these words.  Now we must speak of this, however, for there is a confusion that can
D:Day22.8 This awareness of union with God is what is  now within you awaiting your expression. Awareness of union with God
D:Day22.8  every blowing wind. It is there in each and every human being. It is  now time to quit acting as if it is not. It is time to be a channel
D:Day22.9  what we have been calling Christ-consciousness, but what you call it  now matters not. All the words that have been expressed here, that
D:Day22.10  through which union with God is expressed and made real here and  now. There is no other time. There is no “higher” self waiting to do
D:Day23.3  today we speak of being a carrier. Your instruction has been given.  Now the task before us is to come to understanding of the means by
D:Day23.4  have gently surrounded our time together on the mountain top must  now be surrendered, much as a woman surrenders her body to the growth
D:Day24.3  trigger of nature. It was meant to convey the action of a catalyst.  Now it is up to you whether you allow your true nature to be revealed.
D:Day25.1 Emptiness of mind will  now be something that may seem to plague many of you. Where once the
D:Day25.1  of you. Where once the mind was searching, yearning, questioning,  now it is likely to become still. From the stillness comes its
D:Day25.7  a time of preparation, not a time of waiting. What you need to know  now cannot be gathered except by your own hands. It cannot be sorted
D:Day26.3  Now let's speak a moment of the Self as guide. This simply means that
D:Day27.1 Think  now not of being apprehensive in terms of being fearful of the rest
D:Day27.5 This is the quality of the inner-sight you  now will carry with you to level ground because you have practiced
D:Day27.6  and always have been both human and spirit, both form and content.  Now you contain within you the ability to combine both levels of
D:Day27.7  Now you are asked to apprehend—to understand, and to hold within
D:Day27.9  the joint cornerstones for the biggest revelations yet. All that is  now seen as dualistic in nature can be experienced as different
D:Day27.11  health are each just opposite ends of the same continuum, you can  now see that they are only distinguished by degrees of separation. So
D:Day27.16  wholeness, but the experience of separation. What we are speaking of  now is being able to experience wholeness and the variability of
D:Day28.8  Now something new awaits you. It is a choice so different and a means
D:Day28.15  these two attitudes, but will find that one is prevalent. You must  now get past all such notions or attitudes.
D:Day28.17  has been based upon what was previously externalized. This is what  now must change, and as can be seen, this change is essential to
D:Day28.24  within your mind much as if you have been following a thread and  now can see the tapestry. This tapestry will bear the mark of your
D:Day28.26  and the thread of the life from which you have not removed yourself.  Now you must begin to weave these two threads together into the
D:Day29.2  by their seeming separation, the spirit and the human self must  now do so also.
D:Day29.3  or remembered wholehearted desire—the source of your power.  Now this power is available to assist you in accomplishing the final
D:Day29.4  and you can accomplish this—in your reality. As you realize by  now, all this talk of accomplishment is merely about bringing forward
D:Day30.5  Now let us consider this in terms of experience. As knower and known
D:Day34.4 The wholehearted desire that is upon you  now is the desire to know and experience this oneness of being in
D:Day34.5  to leave striving for specialness and differences behind.  Now you need only realize that your wholehearted desire has made it
D:Day34.6  and your experience. This is your life and your experience of life.  Now you must believe that you are its creator and powerful in your
D:Day35.7  an idea of specialness, an idea of accomplishment and union here and  now come to replace all ideas of life after death.
D:Day35.16  for separation produced unawareness of union and relationship.  Now humankind's desire for union and relationship has led to
D:Day36.5  you created in response to “reality” rather than creating reality.  Now you are called to create reality—a new reality.
D:Day36.6 This is where you begin again. Begin again with the Self you  now know yourself to be.
D:Day36.9  experience. This is starting over with the realization that you are  now the creator of your experience. You have always been creating
D:Day36.9  one in being with God who is endlessly creating. But you are only  now a creator in union and relationship.
D:Day36.12  been given? All the choices in the world save this one before you  now, have made no difference to your state of being. You have just
D:Day36.17  and All in Many. God is still the Creator of All, but God is also  now the Creator of One, the Creator of the experience of one life, or
D:Day36.19 You can see,  now, perhaps, why we have had to build your awareness slowly in order
D:Day37.16  in separation—between your separate self and the separate and  now dead self of the relative. This is not only a relationship in
D:Day37.20  Now let us talk of God.
D:Day38.2 We have not spoken much recently of love, but  now it is time to return to love. Do you know, can you feel as yet,
D:Day38.3  Now we set aside once again the “we” of Christ-consciousness, of our
D:Day38.4  your brief contemplation of these feelings that this is behind us  now. Know that we can be known and loved equally for who we are.
D:Day38.9 You are ready  now to return to this ownership, this possession of relationship and
D:Day38.10  as your own is simply to claim possession for your own Self.  Now it is time to see me as your own God as well as God of all. Now
D:Day38.10  Now it is time to see me as your own God as well as God of all.  Now it is time to call me who I Am.
D:Day39.2 It is time  now to come to your own discovery of who I Am to you. No one can give
D:Day39.9  and individuation requires relationship. Thus you must  now accept yourself as Christ, or as the bridge of relationship
D:Day39.15 What must occur  now must occur between you and me. Your willingness is all that is
D:Day39.34 What memory of I Am will you carry with you  now that you know that I Am is who I am and who you are? What memory
D:Day39.36 Who Am I to you? Only who you are to yourself.  Now it is time for you to be not who you have been to yourself, but
D:Day39.48  wants to be known in time but can only be known in eternity. You  now are the bridge between time and eternity.
D:Day40.8  have known fear and have been forced to reconcile fear with love.  Now, in coming back to relationship and union with me you have
D:Day40.8  and union with me you have realized that you are not separate and  now have striven against the “opposing” force of separation. With the
D:Day40.8  of separation, for you no longer know it. The creative tension that  now remains in our relationship is the tension of individuation or
D:Day40.9  of time. It is creation in the making. What will be created  now, and the individuation that will occur now, will hold all the
D:Day40.9  What will be created now, and the individuation that will occur  now, will hold all the power of your experience as well as all the
D:Day40.12  You have been being separate—a separate being with attributes.  Now you are being in union and relationship—an individuated being
D:Day40.17 You would perhaps beg to differ  now, and ask of me, “Are you not who you are ‘separately’ from
D:Day40.23  Now, as you recognize, acknowledge, and accept the Christ as the Self
D:Day40.25  that I am an individual? That I have feelings?” Are you saying this  now, as you contemplate leaving behind who you have been for being
D:Day40.31  the questions, the longing, the doubts that you would have, before  now, called uniquely yours? Has it not spoken to you as if it knows
D:Day40.32  has spoken to me, and I have responded. Love has responded. How,  now, will you respond to love?
E.1 Ah, imagine  now what it will be like to have nothing left to learn, nothing left
E.1  The alchemy has occurred. The coal has become a diamond. Ah, imagine  now being able to forget all ideas of self-improvement, imagine how
E.1  how much time will be saved by this quest coming to an end. But what  now will you do? What now will you be?
E.1  saved by this quest coming to an end. But what now will you do? What  now will you be?
E.2  they will be entirely gone, never to be asked again. Why? Because  now that you are being who you are in unity and relationship, these
E.3 You are in relationship  now only with love, and so nothing will be hard for you. Desire an
E.13 What you “realize”  now you truly “make real” as your being applies love's extension to
E.16  cooperative relationship of all with everything abides within you  now. You do not, and cannot decide what to do with it, you can only
E.19 Leave these words behind  now, and bring only the dialogue with you. You will unerringly find
E.20 Do not be afraid  now to be who you are. Do not think you need to be something
E.21  that you would consider character flaws or faults, forget about them  now. In being they will be yours or they will not. You will be happy
E.24  when you meet that which would oppose love, remember that you are  now the bridge between this creative tension of opposites becoming
E.29 Be happy that there is no end in sight to this road you travel  now. It is simply the road of what is endlessly creating like unto
E.30 You  now know how to respond to love, for you are love, being. So be it.
A.9  Now you may feel quite compelled to share your experience of the
A.13  your mind finds difficult to accept, your heart accepts with ease.  Now you are ready to question what you must. Now you are ready to
A.13  accepts with ease. Now you are ready to question what you must.  Now you are ready to hear the answer that arises in your own heart or
A.13  own heart or from the voice of the man or woman sitting next to you.  Now you are ready to hear all the voices around you without judgment,
A.13  so anxious to say what you are thinking that you forget to listen.  Now you are ready to let understanding come without the
A.26  the reader encountered in receiving the Course, but the reader will  now encounter these situations in life. The reader is no longer only
A.26  has extended beyond reading and beyond the classroom situation.  Now a time may come when studying truly seems to be in order. The
A.27  than being in a standard learning situation, what the reader who is  now experiencing life in a new way is doing is attempting to
A.31  Now, despite the rapidity of movement or lack thereof, to read the
A.31  include more sharing of experiences. The facilitator's task is  now one of placing these experiences in context. After giving the
A.33  this Course of study that seemed to be working so well for a while  now is letting them down. They may wonder where and when the peace,
A.34  certificates and degrees, admiration, respect, and status, are  now a thing of the past. What individuals may well be looking for is
A.34  were not lasting and that they are not what they would truly want  now. Remind them that the goal is reached in being who they are at
A.38  hearing all that is being spoken in all the ways it is being spoken.  Now is the time to truly begin to “hear” my voice in every aspect of
A.41  The idea of unity and relationship must fully enter you  now.
