Tx:9.105 | gifts to your creations are like His because they are given in His | Name. That is why your creations are as real as His. Yet the real |

W1:8.6 | Then | name each of your thoughts specifically. For example: |
W1:14.4 | closed, think of all the horrors in the world that cross your mind. | Name each one as it occurs to you, and then deny its reality. God did |
W1:14.6 | to you or to anyone about whom you are concerned. In each case, | name the “disaster” quite specifically. Do not use general terms. For |

W1:19.3 | for the thoughts it contains at that time. As you consider each one, | name it in terms of the central person or theme it contains and, |
W1:24.5 | Name each situation that occurs to you, and enumerate carefully as | |
W1:26.7 | First, | name the situation: |
W1:28.8 | As usual, the applications should include the | name of the subject which your eyes happen to light on, and you |

W1:37.9 | helpful to apply it silently to anyone you meet, using his | name as you do so. It is essential to use the idea if anyone seems to |
W1:38.4 | for someone else. Identify the situation specifically and also the | name of the person concerned. Use this form in applying the idea for |
W1:46.4 | anyone you do not like is a suitable subject. Mention each one by | name and say: |

W1:78.6 | You know the one to choose; his | name has crossed your mind already. He will be the one of whom we ask |
W1:78.8 | the light of true forgiveness given unto us. We ask Him in the holy | Name of God and of His Son, as holy as Himself: |
W1:96.8 | with God, because His Voice accepted it for you and answered in your | name that it was done. Thus is salvation kept among the thoughts your |
W1:106.4 | last forever, for they come from God to His dear Son, whose other | name is you. |

W1:183.1 | in a bond to which they turn for their identity. Your Father's | Name reminds you who you are, even within a world that does not know; |
W1:183.2 | God's | Name cannot be heard without response, nor said without an echo in |

T4:3.6 | is also an unnatural state of being. Both states of being—the | natural and the unnatural—exist in relationship. While relationship |
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 |

C:29.17 | or holy relationship, rather than special relationship. This is the | nature of existence, as unity is the nature of existence and cannot |
C:29.17 | relationship. This is the nature of existence, as unity is the | nature of existence and cannot be changed and has not changed, |
C:29.17 | although you believe it not. It is a joyful relationship, as the | nature of relationship is joy. Once you have given up your belief in |
C:29.25 | look at them thus? And can you not come to understand the reciprocal | nature of giftedness? That what God has given only needs to be |
C:30.4 | time that can be kept. The only thing real about time is its eternal | nature. |
C:30.9 | words promised and words given in truth. For no love is finite in | nature. Love has no beginning and no end. Love is a demonstration and |
C:30.11 | be aware of gain without loss while you believe in what is finite in | nature. The cycle of giving and receiving is thus never complete, and |
C:30.11 | loss, but they are. All thinking that is of a “if this, then that” | nature is thinking in terms of gain and loss. This is why we have |
C:30.11 | viewed from a stance of “if this, then that.” It rules the | nature of your existence because you have made it ruler by abandoning |
C:31.9 | You need but look at creation's projection to understand the | nature of perfection and your own Self as Creator and Created. Being |
C:31.36 | Thus, as you move from acquaintances to relationships of a deeper | nature, you quickly determine the nature of those relationships and |
C:31.36 | to relationships of a deeper nature, you quickly determine the | nature of those relationships and have an investment in them staying |
T1:2.7 | You thus applied your thoughts to learning subjects of a specific | nature. Through this focus you believed you accomplished much. You |
T1:2.10 | The thoughts of your ego-mind were ruled by the | nature of the body. To exist as creatures whose only thoughts are of |
T1:2.19 | inherent in the experience, the call for a response, and the | nature of all gifts as being given to all. |
T1:2.22 | To acknowledge the relationship and the | nature of the gift is to realize unity. To realize the call for a |
T1:3.8 | to get you to change your mind about who you are and thus about the | nature of your thoughts. |
T1:4.6 | is to acknowledge relationship, the call for a response, and the | nature of all gifts as being given to all. This is thus a call to |
T1:8.3 | realization of this change of enormous proportions. The very | nature of change is one of slow realization. Change occurs all around |
T1:8.4 | the past two thousand years without your comprehension of it. The | nature of life changed with the resurrection. I am the resurrection |
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 |
T4:4.10 | has continuously been prolonged without a substantial change in the | nature of life. To think of living on and on as you have lived your |
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:7.10 | could love spirit or mind, mind or body—because of the dualistic | nature associated with them—now can love all of your Self, all of |
D:8.8 | not new information. Much of this was taught in “A Treatise on the | Nature of Unity and Its Recognition”. Between the Course and the |
D:9.9 | The same is true of the beliefs set forth in “A Treatise on the | Nature of Unity and Its Recognition”. What was taught in order to aid |
D:9.11 | of your conscious awareness. We do this by discussing now the | nature of ideas as opposed to the nature of thoughts. |
D:9.11 | We do this by discussing now the nature of ideas as opposed to the | nature of thoughts. |
D:9.12 | They are given and received. They are surprising and pleasing in | nature. You may think that they are the result of learning, of |
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:12.14 | of another. Or they may be profound insights into your Self or the | nature of the world. |
D:Day3.7 | make you feel more peaceful, give you comfort of a non-physical | nature. These ideas, whether you realize it or not, are all |
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:Day24.6 | spirit within that cocoon, is to attempt the impossible. It is the | nature of spirit to become. Its wings poke and prod from within as |
D:Day27.8 | become more than a concept. As was spoken of in “A Treatise on the | Nature of Unity and Its Recognition”, it will become a trusted |
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:Day28.4 | include commitments to partnerships of a personal or professional | nature. For some these choices include marriage and starting a |
D:Day28.13 | of those whose major life dilemmas have been of a monetary or career | nature, where success or failure “in life” is seen as the most |
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:Day39.2 | No one can give you this answer, not even me, because this is the | nature of who we are. Individuated beings are who we are in |
D:Day39.8 | Contemplate the “buffer” | nature of all that is intermediary. An intermediary stands between as |
D:Day39.35 | Only that which is by | nature without attributes can be one in being in union and |
D:Day39.35 | the moon? Yet love could become all of these, because love, by its | nature, has no attributes. Love is creation's genesis, the |
D:Day40.4 | not make you in my image. I created you in love because it is the | nature of a being of love to extend. Realize that it is only when |
D:Day40.4 | when love is in relationship with being—that love is given its | nature. Realize that it is only when love is in relationship with |
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 |
D:Day40.10 | Why? Because the nature of a being of love is to extend. The | nature of a being of love is to bring form to the formless—to bring |
D:Day40.11 | Love has no attributes, no form, no conditions, no | nature. It simply is. It was said earlier that being is as Love is. |
E.4 | You have returned to your true | nature. Perhaps you will remember that within A Course of Love you |
A.4 | which may come before or after completing the “Treatise on the | Nature of Unity and Its Recognition,” you continue to perceive of |
A.18 | it is too difficult. It goes against all you have learned and the | nature of the reality in which the mind has functioned. In turning to |

Tx:4.81 | that correcting perception is merely a temporary expedient. It is | necessary to do so only because misperception is a block to |
Tx:4.84 | the ego as if it were a separate thing acting on its own. This was | necessary to persuade you that you cannot dismiss it lightly and must |
Tx:5.64 | as a positive act of assault. This is an interpretation which is | necessary to the ego's survival, because as soon as you regard sin as |
Tx:5.87 | or better, reminded him of, he was too honest to deny more than was | necessary to keep his fear in tolerable bounds as he perceived the |
Tx:6.7 | which the crucifixion was intended to teach was that it is not | necessary to perceive any form of assault in persecution, because |

Tx:8.76 | the harder it may be to recognize their nothingness, but it is not | necessary to examine all possible outcomes to which premises give |
Tx:10.70 | cannot die. The real world can actually be perceived. All that is | necessary is a willingness to perceive nothing else. For if you |
Tx:10.74 | in the end, teaches nothing more than that only reality is true is | necessary. But do you believe it? When you have perceived the real |
Tx:11.9 | fear is not enough to escape from it, although the recognition is | necessary to demonstrate the need for escape. The Holy Spirit must |
Tx:11.31 | it because you think it is antagonistic to you. This is a | necessary consequence of what you have done. You have projected |
Tx:11.50 | love and amounts to a course in how to attack yourself. A | necessary minor, supplementing this major curriculum goal, is |

Tx:15.86 | Our task is but to continue as fast as possible the | necessary process of looking straight at all the interference and |

Tx:15.95 | all at once because there is but one shift in perception that is | necessary, for you made but one mistake. It seems like many, but it |

Tx:16.11 | Yet you have done them. Therefore, your understanding cannot be | necessary. Yet it is still impossible to accomplish what you do not |
Tx:16.35 | within yourself which you have built against it. It is not | necessary to seek for what is true, but it is necessary to seek for |
Tx:16.35 | it. It is not necessary to seek for what is true, but it is | necessary to seek for what is false. Every illusion is one of fear, |

Tx:18.27 | but remember that your understanding is not necessary. All that was | necessary was merely the wish to understand. That wish was the |
Tx:18.32 | the extent of recognizing that you want it above all else. It is not | necessary that you do more; indeed, it is necessary that you realize |
Tx:18.32 | above all else. It is not necessary that you do more; indeed, it is | necessary that you realize that you cannot do more. Do not attempt |
Tx:18.46 | or to attempt to deal with it alone. Never believe that this is | necessary or even possible. Yet just as this is impossible, so is it |
Tx:18.66 | and long periods of meditation aimed at detachment from the body | necessary. All such attempts will ultimately succeed because of their |

Tx:25.64 | Here is the only principle salvation needs. Nor is it | necessary that your faith in it be strong, unswerving, and without |
Tx:26.15 | solve. But you believe that some injustices are fair and good and | necessary to preserve yourself. It is these problems that you think |
Tx:26.18 | to decide between. And only if there were could choosing be a | necessary step in the advance toward oneness. What is everything |
Tx:26.19 | Yet is this magnitude beyond the scope of this curriculum. Nor is it | necessary we dwell on anything that cannot be immediately grasped. |
Tx:27.25 | what it really is. From an idea of self as two, there comes a | necessary view of function split between the two. And what you would |
Tx:27.46 | nothing more than just one instant of your love without attack is | necessary that all this occur. In that one instant are you healed, |
Tx:30.40 | are alone and separated off from what is whole. And thus it would be | necessary for the search for wholeness to be made beyond the |
Tx:30.74 | that can not be overlooked. For if there were, it would be | necessary first there be some sin which stands beyond forgiveness. |

D:7.12 | Discovery is not the same as remembrance. Remembrance was | necessary for your return to your true identity, the Self as it was |

D:13.7 | are living in the time of Christ, a time when no intermediaries are | needed or required. Thus you are not called to become an intermediary |
D:14.10 | of the new. It paves the way much as each step of learning that was | needed in the time of learning paved the way for the next and then |
D:15.21 | behind the conditions of learning. Why? Because they are no longer | needed. The time of learning has ended. When this time of becoming |
D:15.21 | available within unity, or Christ-consciousness, will no longer be | needed. This will be as big a step as was the step that left behind |
D:Day2.13 | These actions are unchangeable. This is why simple acceptance is | needed. |

D:Day9.4 | one who can stop you now is yourself. The only permission you ever | needed was your own. |

D:Day21.7 | an “eventually.” Teacher and learner are equal and thus neither are | needed any longer. The “transfer” of knowledge is now an act of |
D:Day21.7 | is now an act of giving and receiving as one. No intermediary is | needed when you exist in union. It is recognized that the knowledge, |

D:Day22.10 | unknown in ways that you would not, and find your own. Each way is | needed. |
D:Day23.1 | You must be this. A Course of Love gave you the understanding you | needed in order to realize that you are this. The Treatises gave you |
D:Day27.3 | the way, pointed you in differing directions, taught you what you | needed to know. This was the external experience of life. Most of you |

T2:9.16 | ceases. Your needs only continue to be brought to your awareness as | needs until your trust in their immediate and ongoing fulfillment is |
T2:9.16 | Once this trust is realized you will no longer think in terms of | needs at all. Once you are no longer concerned with needs and the |
T2:9.16 | in terms of needs at all. Once you are no longer concerned with | needs and the meeting of needs you will no longer be concerned with |
T2:9.16 | all. Once you are no longer concerned with needs and the meeting of | needs you will no longer be concerned with special relationships. You |
T2:9.17 | Holding on to what you think will meet your | needs is like holding your breath. Your breath cannot long be held. |
T2:9.17 | that you live. Each time you are tempted to think that your | needs can only be met in special ways by special relationships, |
T2:9.18 | will no longer think of trust just as you will no longer think of | needs. |
T2:10.2 | Thinking that | needs can be met only in certain ways is akin to another belief that |
T2:10.5 | it is still a worthy illustration. For just as a supercomputer | needs a knowledgeable operator in order to provide the information |

T2:10.6 | to be shared in like measure by all, so too is true knowing. Just as | needs were shown to be distinguishable from wants by a discussion of |

Tx:1.43 | God's creations | never lose their holiness, although it can be hidden. The miracle |

Tx:1.45 | The Soul | never loses its communion with God. Only the mind needs Atonement. |
Tx:1.73 | 46. A miracle is | never lost. It touches many people you do not even know and sometimes |
Tx:1.89 | You who want peace can find it only by complete forgiveness. You | never really wanted peace before, so there was no point in being |
Tx:1.90 | man had no needs at all. If he had not deprived himself, he would | never have experienced them. After the separation, needs became the |
Tx:1.91 | lack he really needs to correct. This sense of separation would | never have occurred if he had not distorted his perception of truth |
Tx:1.93 | to correct his unbelief, which placed him in it originally. He can | never control the effects of fear himself because he made fear and |
Tx:1.107 | creative. But, although he can perceive false associations, he can | never make them real except to himself. Man believes in what he |
Tx:2.15 | which places him in a position to realize that his own errors | never really occurred. When the “deep sleep” fell upon Adam, he was |

Tx:3.21 | (or assignment) also applies to themselves. Good teachers | never terrorize their students. To terrorize is to attack, and this |
Tx:3.26 | That is why those who live largely in darkness and emptiness | never find any lasting solace. Innocence is not a partial |
Tx:3.27 | misperceive and always see truly. More simply, it means that you | never see what does not really exist. When you lack confidence in |

Tx:3.78 | in opposition to God because it literally denies His Fatherhood. | Never underestimate the power of this denial. Look at your lives and |
Tx:4.8 | ego cannot know. They are therefore not in communication and can | never be in communication. Nevertheless, the ego can learn because |
Tx:4.9 | lesson was like yours, and because I learned it, I can teach it. I | never attack your egos, but I do try to teach you how their thought |
Tx:4.14 | is never at stake because God did not create it. Your Soul is | never at stake because He did. Any confusion on this point is a |

Tx:4.41 | You have | never understood what “the Kingdom of Heaven is within you” means. |
Tx:4.42 | are no more fatherless than you are. Your ego and your Soul will | never be co-creators, but your Soul and your Creator will always |
Tx:4.50 | which is so different from anything the ego can offer that you will | never recover. The word “recover” is used quite literally here—you |
Tx:4.50 | recover. The word “recover” is used quite literally here—you will | never be able to cover or hide again. It is necessary to repeat here |
Tx:4.51 | In this you are as free as God and must remain so forever. You can | never be bound except in honor, and that is always voluntary. Let us |

Tx:4.52 | It has | never really entered your mind to give up every idea you ever had |
Tx:4.53 | I will | never forsake you any more than God will, but I must wait as long |
Tx:4.56 | your feelings have a narrow range on the negative side but are | never purely joyous, and your behavior is either strained or |
Tx:4.82 | nor is it understood by being compared to an opposite. Knowledge | never involves comparisons. That is its essential difference from |
Tx:4.85 | you have made, your great debt to each other is something you must | never forget. It is exactly the same debt that you owe to me. |
Tx:4.87 | than conditioning by pain because pain is an ego-illusion and can | never induce more than a temporary effect. The rewards of God, |

Tx:5.47 | without strength. Its unshared existence does not die; it was merely | never born. Real birth is not a beginning; it is a continuing. |

Tx:5.62 | ridiculous the idea of attacking God may be to the sane mind, | never forget that the ego is not sane. It represents a delusional |
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 | 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 | range. It cannot exceed it because of its uncertainty. And it can | never go beyond it, because it can never be certain. |
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:16.25 | real has ever left the mind of its creator. And what is not real was | never there. |
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:23.8 | be attacked and overthrown. You may identify with this belief, but | never will it be more than madness. And fear will reign in madness |
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. |
W1:R5.6 | understands Itself, is perfect in Its knowledge and Its love, and | never changes from Its constant state of union with Its Father and |
W1:181.10 | attests to our remembrance of the holy Self Which knows no sin and | never could conceive of anything without Its sinlessness. We seek for |
W1:182.4 | now so distorted that you merely hold a picture of a past that | never happened. Yet there is a Child in you Who seeks His Father's |
W1:183.8 | Thus do we give an invitation which can | never be refused. And God will come and answer it Himself. Think not |
W1:186.11 | and one you can attain. Your plan may be impossible, but God's can | never fail because He is its Source. |
W1:186.14 | These are the forms which | never can deceive, although they come from Formlessness Itself. |
W1:187.4 | value by the act of giving them away, and you are sure that you will | never lose them. What you thought you did not have is thereby proven |
W1:187.6 | Never forget you give but to yourself. Who understands what giving | |
W1:187.8 | Never believe that you can sacrifice. There is no place for sacrifice | |
W1:188.2 | to find it in the future or believe it has been lost already or was | never there? It can so easily be looked upon that arguments which |
W1:188.5 | The peace of God can | never be contained. Who recognizes it within himself must give it. |
W1:194.7 | found his way to present peace and certainty of care the world can | never threaten. He is sure that his perception may be faulty but will |
W1:194.7 | threaten. He is sure that his perception may be faulty but will | never lack correction. He is free to choose again when he has been |
W1:195.4 | our Father that in us all things will find their freedom. It will | never be that some are loosed while others still are bound, for who |
W1:196.2 | for today. It may in fact appear to be a sign that punishment can | never be escaped because the ego, under what it sees as threat, is |
W1:196.8 | had thought to banish, can be welcomed back within the holy mind He | never left. |
W1:197.5 | to yourself, and what belongs to God must be His own. Yet you will | never realize His gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, |
W1:197.6 | take away the sins you think you see outside yourself, and you can | never think the gifts of God are lent but for a little while before |
W1:197.9 | denied yourself when you forgot the function God has given you. But | never think that He has ever ceased to offer thanks to you. |
W1:199.2 | a mind because it has been given to the Source of Love. And fear can | never enter in a mind that has attached itself to Love. It rests in |
W1:200.7 | he hope to find in such a world? It cannot have reality because it | never was created. Is it here that he would seek for peace? Or must |
W2:I.5 | you have recognized it is your will He do so. And you could have | never come this far unless you saw, however dimly, that it is your |
W2:225.2 | it in peace together. You have reached your hand to me, and I will | never leave you. We are one, and it is but this oneness that we seek |
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 |
W2:234.1 | sin and guilt are gone and we have reached again the holy peace we | never left. Merely a tiny instant has elapsed between eternity and |
W2:240.1 | is deception. It attests that you have seen yourself as you could | never be and therefore look upon a world which is impossible. Not one |
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 |
W2:306.2 | And so, our Father, we return to You, remembering we | never went away, remembering Your holy gifts to us. In gratitude and |
W2:WILJ.1 | for God proclaim that what is false is false and what is true has | never changed. And this the judgment is in which perception ends. At |
W2:320.1 | wills with his Creator and Redeemer must be done. His holy will can | never be denied because his Father shines upon his mind and lays |
W2:326.1 | Father, I was created in Your Mind, a holy thought that | never left its home. I am forever Your Effect, and You forever and |
W2:327.2 | Father, I thank You that Your promises will | never fail in my experience if I but test them out. Let me attempt |
W2:329.1 | is but Your Will, extended and extending. This am I. And this will | never change. As You are One, so am I one with You. And this I chose |
W2:331.1 | without a certain way to his release? You love me, Father. You could | never leave me desolate, to die within a world of pain and cruelty. |
W2:332.1 | illusions. Truth undoes its evil dreams by shining them away. Truth | never makes attack. It merely is. And by its presence is the mind |
W2:333.2 | dreams. No light but this can save the world. For this alone will | never fail in anything, being Your gift to Your beloved Son. |
W2:335.1 | Forgiveness is a choice. I | never see my brother as he is, for that is far beyond perception. |
W2:WIM.5 | everywhere the signs of life spring up to show that what is born can | never die, for what has life has immortality. |
W2:343.1 | be loss. The gift of everything can but be gain. You only give. You | never take away. And You created me to be like You, so sacrifice |
W2:356.1 | Father, You promised You would | never fail to answer any call Your Son might make to You. It does not |
W2:E.6 | all about. His Love surrounds you, and of this be sure: that I will | never leave you comfortless. |
M:I.2 | what you are and what they are to you. No more than that, but also | never less. |
M:1.3 | the particular teaching aids involved. But the content of the course | never changes. Its central theme is always, “God's Son is guiltless, |
M:1.4 | is very tired now. It is old and worn and without hope. There was | never a question of outcome, for what can change the Will of God? But |
M:2.2 | corrects illusions, not the truth. Therefore it corrects what | never was. Further, the plan for this correction was established and |
M:2.2 | Answer given. In time this happened very long ago. In reality it | never happened at all. |
M:4.3 | In fact, perception is learning, because cause and effect are | never separated. The teachers of God have trust in the world, because |
M:4.12 | in all things, they are honest. They can only succeed because they | never do their will alone. They choose for all mankind, for all the |
M:4.24 | it be restored to them in newness and in joy so glorious they could | never have conceived of such a change. Nothing is now as it was |
M:6.4 | it be ineffectual? How can it be wasted? God's treasure house can | never be empty. And if one gift were missing, it would not be full. |
M:8.3 | and it sends the body's eyes to find it. The body's eyes will | never see except through differences. Yet it is not the messages they |
M:10.6 | Not one is true. For he has given up their cause, and they, which | never were but the effects of his mistaken choice, have fallen from |
M:11.3 | possible in this world? In your judgment it is not possible and can | never be possible. But in the Judgment of God, what is reflected here |
M:13.3 | no one doubts what he believes he is. He can doubt all things but | never this. |
M:16.10 | of one error and no more, he merely chooses to give up all that he | never had. And for this “sacrifice” is Heaven restored to his |
M:17.4 | these reactions are the same. They obscure the truth, and this can | never be a matter of degree. Either truth is apparent or it is not. |
M:17.5 | and make himself a shield to keep him safe from fury that can | never be abated and vengeance that can never be satisfied. |
M:17.5 | him safe from fury that can never be abated and vengeance that can | never be satisfied. |
M:17.7 | for what was done cannot be done without. The stain of blood can | never be removed, and anyone who bears this stain on him must meet |
M:17.8 | it is. If anger comes from an interpretation and not a fact, it is | never justified. Once this is even dimly grasped, the way is open. |
M:20.3 | fail to find it who but seeks out its conditions. God's peace can | never come where anger is, for anger must deny that peace exists. Who |
M:23.2 | Indeed, he has already done so. Temptation may recur to others, but | never to this one. He has become the risen Son of God. He has |

C:6.21 | You do not understand the difference between wishing for what can | never be and accepting what is. |
C:7.6 | This is the piece that screams | never to that which would beat you down. Life is seen as a constant |
C:7.6 | Life is seen as a constant taking away and this, you claim, will | never be taken from you. For those whose lives are threatened, it is |
C:7.6 | label it ethics, morals, values, and say this is the line I will | never cross. It is the cry that says, “I will not sell my soul.” |
C:7.7 | This is your Self. Yet this Self that you hold so dear that you will | never let it go is precisely what you must be willing to freely give |
C:7.9 | has so long been locked away. After this a gentle breeze will come, | never again to leave you, as life breathes as one. |
C:8.20 | this is cause for rejoicing. At other times a cause for sorrow. But | never can it be evaded that each day is a beginning and an ending |
C:9.4 | existence and to make things happen. This use of relationship will | never provide the proof or the action you seek, because relationship |
C:9.30 | what it is for would make of it what he or she would have it be, but | never would the user seek to exchange roles with it. When an accident |
C:9.33 | God's will for you is happiness, and | never has it been otherwise. God's creation is for eternity and has |
C:9.47 | for your childhood. Your innocence will stand out clearly here, and | never again will you doubt that the world that God created belongs to |
C:10.2 | each one whole, and in this wholeness one with all. This union has | never really ceased to be, but as long as you do not realize that it |
C:10.7 | that says, “Stand up straight,” or “You're special,” or “You will | never amount to anything.” Many of you may have used therapy to still |

C:11.12 | choosing to make yourself separate from Him—something that could | never truly occur—you have chosen instead to do nothing at all with |
C:11.14 | God will | never wrestle your free will from you, or fight battles to win it for |
C:11.17 | love. Love is all that will fill your emptiness, and all that will | never leave you empty again as it extends from you to your brothers |
C:12.17 | ideas one day and ten thousand the next, so many that you could | never keep track of them all, and yet they still exist within you and |
C:12.18 | take on a life of its own and compel you to do things you might have | never dreamed of doing. People often look back upon their lives and |
C:13.1 | You will | never fully understand what unity means, but you will come to feel |
C:14.2 | rest, this is the goal you ask creation to bow down to, a goal that | never can be achieved any more than can your separation from what you |
C:14.13 | before or since. No other relationship affected you in such a way. | Never were you more sure of a relationship's value to you. Anything |

C:15.3 | desire it no longer. You can have specialness or your true Self, but | never both. The desire for specialness is what calls your little self |
C:16.13 | you are not safe. There is only one of you and so many of “them.” | Never can you keep your guard up quite enough or secure a final |
C:16.15 | before you can act upon it, you live as if you believe that what has | never worked before will somehow miraculously work in the future. You |
C:17.2 | Self is held for you by another part of your consciousness that has | never left it. It is the reunion of these two selves that will bring |
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:20.19 | Have you | never felt as if you would wrap your arms around the world and bring |
C:20.19 | can do. Not with physical arms, but with the arms of love. Have you | never cried for the state of the world as you would for one small |
C:22.22 | be replaced quickly with an intimacy with your surroundings that you | never felt before. |
C:23.19 | Beyond imagination is the spark that allows you to conceive of what | never was conceived of before. This spark is inspiration, the |
C:26.24 | in the pattern that is oneness with God. It is a place you have | never left but that you long for, believing that you know it not. |
C:30.11 | is speaking of now, in essence, is gain without loss. You will | never be aware of gain without loss while you believe in what is |
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 |
T1:7.1 | world because the world is seen as a world in which who you are can | never be accomplished. You have perceived this inability to be who |
T1:7.2 | there is light. One or the other must exist at a given time, but | never both. Thus the absence of good health is disease; the absence |
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 | expression of who you are may lead you to many new adventures but | never again to the special relationships that would take you away |
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. |
T3:3.5 | and while you have in turn blamed it as much as it blamed you, you | never blamed anything quite as much as you blamed yourself. |
T3:5.1 | caused by the complete absence of the ego, just as few of you have | never felt some sort of absence. All the lessons you have drawn to |
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. |
T3:11.15 | can be useful in a new way to your brothers and sisters as well. | Never forget that what was made for your use can be used in a new way |
T3:13.2 | that pain will not end. Once fear has entered, doubt and guilt are | never far behind. |
T3:20.6 | or offer comments about the unfairness of the situation. Judgment is | never far from these observations. Suffering, you would think, could |
T3:20.10 | or positive thinking. I am calling you to live by the truth and to | never deny it. To see no circumstance as cause to abandon it. Yes, I |

Tx:7.75 | unaware of your gift, because you do not give it. You cannot make | nothing live since it cannot be enlivened. Therefore, you are not |

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:8.42 | of God for anything the world has to offer. The world can add | nothing to the power and the glory of God and His holy Sons, but it |

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:8.58 | Rejoice, then, that of yourselves you can do | nothing. You are not of yourselves. He of Whom you are has willed |
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: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:9.59 | Nothing beyond yourself can make you fearful or loving, because | nothing is beyond you. Time and eternity are both in your mind and |

Tx:9.60 | 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:9.83 | 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:9.90 | 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 |
W1:74.6 | I am at peace. | Nothing can disturb me. My will is God's My will and God's are one. |
W1:76.10 | nor received. Exchange cannot be made, there are no substitutes, and | nothing is replaced by something else. God's laws forever give and |
W1:92.7 | and in love. It sees all others different from itself and | nothing in the world that it would share. It judges and condemns but |
W1:93.2 | fixed that it is difficult to help you see that they are based on | nothing. That you have made mistakes is obvious. That you have sought |
W1:93.4 | evil that you think you did was never done, that all your “sins” are | nothing, that you are as pure and holy as you were created, and that |
W1:93.5 | does not exist at all. And anything it seems to do and think means | nothing. It is neither bad nor good. It is unreal and nothing more |
W1:93.5 | think means nothing. It is neither bad nor good. It is unreal and | nothing more than that. It does not battle with the Son of God. It |
W1:93.6 | it is accepted. It is true. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. | Nothing can touch it nor can change what God created as eternal. The |
W1:94.6 | Nothing is required of you to reach this goal except to lay all idols | |
W1:95.2 | you are the Son of God, for it is senseless and understands | nothing. |
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 |
W1:98.6 | success. And since time has no meaning, you are being asked for | nothing in return for everything. Here is a bargain that you cannot |
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 |
W1:102.2 | you is lacking in existence like itself. You have been slave to | nothing. Be you free today to join the happy Will of God. |
W1:104.7 | what belongs to us in truth is what He gives. And we would wish for | nothing else, for nothing else belongs to us in truth. |
W1:104.7 | in truth is what He gives. And we would wish for nothing else, for | nothing else belongs to us in truth. |
W1:105.3 | see. It strips all meaning from the gifts you give and leaves you | nothing in the ones you take. A major learning goal this course has |
W1:106.1 | seem to call; if you will not accept its petty gifts which give you | nothing that you really want; if you will listen with an open mind, |
W1:107.2 | when there was a time—perhaps a minute, maybe even less—when | nothing came to interrupt your peace; when you were certain you were |
W1:110.7 | I am as God created me. His Son can suffer | nothing. And I am His Son. |
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 |
W1:117.2 | Love, is also happiness. Let me remember love is happiness and | nothing else brings joy. And so I choose to entertain no substitutes |
W1:124.1 | and strength available to us in all our undertakings. We can fail in | nothing. Everything we touch takes on a shining light which blesses |
W1:124.9 | Your benefit will not be less if you believe that | nothing happens. You may not be ready to accept the gain today. Yet |
W1:128.1 | The world you see has | nothing that you need to offer you, nothing that you can use in any |
W1:128.1 | The world you see has nothing that you need to offer you, | nothing that you can use in any way, nor anything at all that serves |
W1:128.2 | where there is none. Be you deceived no more. The world you see has | nothing that you want. |
W1:128.4 | Let | nothing which relates to body thoughts delay your progress to |
W1:128.4 | to believe the world has anything you want to hold you back. | Nothing is here to cherish. Nothing here is worth one instant of |
W1:128.4 | has anything you want to hold you back. Nothing is here to cherish. | Nothing here is worth one instant of delay and pain, one moment of |
W1:128.4 | and pain, one moment of uncertainty and doubt. The worthless offer | nothing. Certainty of worth cannot be found in worthlessness. |
W1:128.9 | This will not tempt me to delay myself. The world I see has | nothing that I want. |
W1:129.6 | be for you in choosing not to value nothingness? This world holds | nothing that you really want, but what you choose instead you want |
W1:129.8 | I want. I choose to see that world instead of this, for here is | nothing that I really want. |
W1:129.12 | The world I see has | nothing that I want. Beyond this world there is a world I want. |
W1:130.5 | go. The real and the unreal are all there is to choose between, and | nothing more than these. |
W1:131.15 | who asks to reach the truth, and it is this request you make today. | Nothing but this has any meaning now; no other goal is valued now nor |
W1:131.15 | this has any meaning now; no other goal is valued now nor sought; | nothing before this door you really want, and only what lies past it |
W1:132.4 | you hold the bitter thought of death within your mind. The world is | nothing in itself. Your mind must give it meaning. And what you |
W1:133.6 | is no in-between. Each choice you make brings everything to you or | nothing. Therefore, if you learn the tests by which you can |
W1:133.6 | if you learn the tests by which you can distinguish everything from | nothing, you will make the better choice. |
W1:133.7 | there and makes no offering to him who chooses it. He is deceived by | nothing in a form he thinks he likes. |
W1:133.8 | if you choose to take a thing away from someone else, you will have | nothing left. This is because when you deny his right to everything, |
W1:133.8 | by the illusion loss can offer gain. Yet loss must offer loss and | nothing more. |
W1:133.13 | to obtain. Choosing is easy just because of this. Complexity is | nothing but a screen of smoke which hides the very simple fact that |
W1:133.14 | Itself is reached by empty hands and open minds, which come with | nothing to find everything and claim it as their own. We will attempt |
W1:135.21 | our brothers lay aside their cumbersome defenses which availed them | nothing and could only terrify. |
W1:135.25 | Nothing but that. If there are plans to make, you will be told of | |
W1:135.26 | you ever thought that you must be defended from release. Heaven asks | nothing. It is hell that makes extravagant demands for sacrifice. You |
W1:135.26 | It is hell that makes extravagant demands for sacrifice. You give up | nothing in these times today when undefended you present yourself to |
W1:136.19 | all is in the mind to what the body does. Its usefulness remains and | nothing more. |
W1:136.20 | by food and drink, or any laws you made it serve before. You need do | nothing now to make it well, for sickness has become impossible. |
W1:138.3 | decision, time is but a waste and effort dissipated. It is spent for | nothing in return. And time goes by without results. There is no |
W1:138.3 | And time goes by without results. There is no sense of gain, for | nothing is accomplished; nothing learned. |
W1:138.3 | results. There is no sense of gain, for nothing is accomplished; | nothing learned. |
W1:138.4 | you will perceive it was no choice at all, for truth is true and | nothing else is real. There is no opposite to choose instead. There |
W1:138.11 | we make a conscious choice between what has existence and what has | nothing but an appearance of the truth. Its pseudo-being, brought to |
W1:139.6 | its madness in the sad belief that what is universal here is true? | Nothing the world believes is true. It is a place whose purpose is to |
W1:140.2 | of a dream make in reality? One either sleeps or wakens. There is | nothing in between. |
W1:140.4 | all sickness. For the mind which understands that sickness can be | nothing but a dream is not deceived by forms the dream may take. |
W1:140.4 | possible. And that is cure indeed. For sickness now is gone, with | nothing left to which it can return. |
W1:140.7 | but in attributes that have no substance, no reality, no core, and | nothing that is truly different? |
W1:140.9 | beyond appearances today and reach the source of healing from which | nothing is exempt. We will succeed to the extent to which we realize |
W1:140.12 | With | nothing in our hands to which we cling, with lifted hearts and |
W1:144.2 | [128] The world I see has | nothing that I want. |
W1:151.12 | Itself. In everyone and everything, His Voice would speak to you of | nothing but your Self and your Creator, Who is one with Him. So will |
W1:152.1 | the outcomes that he wants. And no one dies without his own consent. | Nothing occurs but represents your wish, and nothing is omitted that |
W1:152.1 | his own consent. Nothing occurs but represents your wish, and | nothing is omitted that you choose. Here is your world, complete in |
W1:152.3 | Salvation is the recognition that the truth is true and | nothing else is true. This you have heard before, but may not yet |
W1:152.3 | true, then part of truth is false, and truth has lost its meaning. | Nothing but the truth is true, and what is false is false. |
W1:155.4 | of loss and have not been released accordingly. Others have chosen | nothing but the world, and they have suffered from a sense of loss |
W1:155.8 | Such is salvation's call, and | nothing more. It asks that you accept the truth, and let it go before |
W1:155.10 | walking in the way you traveled will be gone from you as well, with | nothing left to keep the truth apart from God's completion, holy as |
W1:156.2 | you are, He is. There is one Life. That Life you share with Him. | Nothing can be apart from Him and live. |
W1:157.4 | your will with His this day, what you are asking must be given you. | Nothing is needed but today's idea to light your mind and let it rest |
W1:164.6 | they are. And what is worthy of your love receives your love, while | nothing to be feared remains. |
W1:166.1 | is limitless. He knows His Son. He gives without exception, holding | nothing back that can contribute to your happiness. And yet unless |
W1:170.8 | and fire seems to flame from him, he is but made of stone. He can do | nothing. We need not defy his power. He has none. And those who see |
W1:170.10 | the obstacles to peace. The final one, the hardest to believe is | nothing and a seeming obstacle with the appearance of a solid block, |
W1:181.3 | wherein we practice changing our intent. We seek for innocence and | nothing else. We seek for it with no concern but now. |
W1:181.4 | are but defenses against present change of focus in perception. | Nothing more. |
W1:182.1 | of. Yet still you feel an alien here, from somewhere all unknown. | Nothing so definite that you could say with certainty you are an |
W1:182.11 | Take time today to lay aside your shield which profits | nothing and lay down the spear and sword you raised against an enemy |
W1:183.7 | Hear | nothing else. Let all your thoughts become anchored on this. No other |
W1:183.12 | little things of earth have disappeared. The universe consists of | nothing but the Son of God who calls upon his Father. And his |
W1:184.2 | by which the world's perception is achieved. You see something where | nothing is and see as well nothing where there is unity—a space |
W1:184.2 | is achieved. You see something where nothing is and see as well | nothing where there is unity—a space between all things, between |

W1:185.5 | seeks to go beyond them, recognizing that another dream would offer | nothing more than all the others. Dreams are one to him. And he has |
W1:189.7 | it judges worthy and all the ideas of which it is ashamed. Hold onto | nothing. Do not bring with you one thought the past has taught nor |
W1:190.5 | It is your thoughts alone that cause you pain. | Nothing external to your mind can hurt or injure you in any way. |
W1:190.5 | down and bring oppression. No one but yourself affects you. There is | nothing in the world which has the power to make you ill or sad or |
W1:190.6 | My holy brothers, think of this awhile—the world you see does | nothing. It has no effects at all. It merely represents your |
W1:191.3 | despair snatch from your fingers every scrap of hope, leaving you | nothing but the wish to die. |
W1:191.11 | hear this: all power is given you in earth and Heaven. There is | nothing that you cannot do. You play the game of death, of being |
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 |
W1:195.6 | thanks for every living thing, for otherwise we offer thanks for | nothing and we fail to recognize the gifts of God to us. |
W1:200.1 | sense of icy hopelessness and doubt. Seek you no further. There is | nothing else for you to find except the peace of God, unless you seek |
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:WF.5 | Do | nothing, then, and let forgiveness show you what to do through Him |
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. |
W2:258.1 | in our minds, obscured but by our pointless little goals which offer | nothing and do not exist. Shall we continue to allow God's grace to |
W2:264.1 | and keeps him safe is Love Itself. There is no Source but This, and | nothing is that does not share Its holiness, that stands beyond Your |
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 |
W2:271.1 | disappears. His kindly sight redeems the world from death. For | nothing that He looks on but must live, remembering the Father and |
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 |
W2:284.1 | is no grief with any cause at all. And suffering of any kind is | nothing but a dream. Such is the truth—at first to be but said and |
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:I.4 | be? Into this hopeless and closed learning situation which teaches | nothing but despair and death, God sends His teachers. And as they |
M:4.6 | them in this world of illusion. The word “value” can apply to | nothing else. |
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:4.17 | when the teacher of God finally agrees to look past them, he finds | nothing was there. Slowly at first, he lets himself be undeceived. |
M:4.20 | happens now or in the future. The past as well held no mistakes— | nothing that did not serve to benefit the world as well as him to |
M:4.21 | the thinking of the world entirely. And that alone is faithfulness. | Nothing but that really deserves the name. Yet each degree, however |
M:4.24 | in joy so glorious they could never have conceived of such a change. | Nothing is now as it was formerly. Nothing but sparkles now which |
M:4.24 | have conceived of such a change. Nothing is now as it was formerly. | Nothing but sparkles now which seemed so dull and lifeless before. |
M:5.5 | to bring tangible form to his desires. And it is this they do, and | nothing else. They are not actually needed at all. The patient could |
M:5.8 | If they even suspected it, they would be healed. Yet they suspect | nothing. To them the separation is quite real. |
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:13.2 | fact that the world has nothing to give. What can the sacrifice of | nothing mean? It cannot mean that you have less because of it. There |
M:13.3 | for the mind to understand that all the “pleasures” of the world are | nothing. But what a sacrifice—and it is sacrifice indeed—all this |
M:13.4 | and remembrance of his Father's Love. Who in his sane mind chooses | nothing as a substitute for everything? |
M:13.8 | is given you at no cost at all. Decide against Him, and you choose | nothing at the expense of the awareness of everything. What would you |
M:16.4 | One can easily sit still an hour with closed eyes and accomplish | nothing. One can as easily give God only an instant, and in that |
M:16.6 | it is this you fear, and only this. How foolish to be so afraid of | nothing! Nothing at all! Your defenses will not work, but you are not |
M:16.6 | you fear, and only this. How foolish to be so afraid of nothing! | Nothing at all! Your defenses will not work, but you are not in |
M:16.9 | of magic is the avoidance of temptation. For all temptation is | nothing more than the attempt to substitute another will for God's. |
M:16.9 | quieting nor fearful. When all magic is recognized as merely | nothing, the teacher of God has reached the most advanced state. All |
M:16.9 | to recognition. For magic of any kind, in all its forms, simply does | nothing. Its powerlessness is the reason it can be so easily escaped. |
M:17.3 | be recognized by their results. A lesson truly taught can lead to | nothing but release for teacher and pupil who have shared in one |
M:17.9 | To see it and to recognize its thought system is to look on | nothing. Can nothing give rise to anger? Hardly so. Remember then, |
M:17.9 | it and to recognize its thought system is to look on nothing. Can | nothing give rise to anger? Hardly so. Remember then, teacher of God, |
M:19.2 | possible because, while it is not true in itself, justice includes | nothing that opposes truth. There is no inherent conflict between |
M:19.5 | It accepts all evidence that is brought before it, omitting | nothing and assessing nothing as separate and apart from all the |
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 |
M:20.2 | way it is totally unlike all previous experiences. It calls to mind | nothing that went before. It brings with it no past associations. It |
M:20.5 | understand that everything which God created cannot have an end, and | nothing He did not create is real. In this one sentence is our course |
M:25.1 | he may well develop abilities that seem quite startling to him. Yet | nothing he can do can compare even in the slightest with the glorious |
M:25.2 | these limits in any way is merely becoming more natural. He is doing | nothing special, and there is no magic in his accomplishments. |
M:25.4 | Nothing that is genuine is used to deceive. The Holy Spirit is | |
M:26.1 | that enables others to leave the world with them. Alone they are | nothing. But in their joining is the Power of God. |
M:27.7 | sinks down to death and dissolution. And what is the end of death? | Nothing but this: the realization that the Son of God is guiltless |
M:27.7 | the realization that the Son of God is guiltless now and forever. | Nothing but this. But do not let yourself forget it is not less than |
M:28.2 | across the world. Christ's face is seen in every living thing, and | nothing is held in darkness apart from the light of forgiveness. |
M:28.3 | things and replacing all attack. The whole reversal is accomplished. | Nothing is left to contradict the Word of God. There is no opposition |
M:28.5 | God created us, so will we be forever and forever, and we wish for | nothing but His Will to be our own. Illusions of another will are |

C:P.26 | or a relative who lived and died many years previously. You see | nothing odd or foreign in this. This is the nature of family, as you |
C:P.33 | form revealed. This is true seeing. For content is all and form is | nothing. |
C:1.2 | you experience. All feelings are generated by the heart and have | nothing to do with the body. The heart of the body is the altar at |

C:1.6 | will save time by letting them go. Remember that your worries affect | nothing. You think if your worries affect time this is an effect, but |
C:1.9 | that say on my own I am everything, rather than on my own I am | nothing. A true leader follows until she is ready to lead. She does |

C:1.14 | mightily for nothing is still to have nothing and to end up with | nothing. Striving, however, must be distinguished from struggle. To |
C:1.14 | strive for that which has value is what this Course is about. It has | nothing to do with struggle. You think also that to leave struggle |
C:1.14 | this action as a noble one. This desire to engage in struggle has | nothing to do with what you are responsible for. It is merely your |
C:2.2 | physical form you will not recognize God. Everything real is of God. | Nothing unreal exists. Each person passing from this life to the next |
C:2.2 | learns no great secret. They simply realize love is all there is. | Nothing unreal exists. Think for yourself: If you were going to die |
C:2.4 | is true enough. But because you have not properly recognized fear as | nothing, you have not properly recognized love as everything. It is |
C:2.7 | pain is seen as a successful life, for a life of joy is seen as | nothing more than a daydream, a life of pain a nightmare. |
C:2.16 | who you are. You think you can love without love being who you are. | Nothing stands apart from your being. Nothing stands alone. All your |
C:2.16 | love being who you are. Nothing stands apart from your being. | Nothing stands alone. All your attempts to keep things separate are |
C:3.7 | but symbolic, with each symbol's meaning chosen by you and for you. | Nothing is what it is, but only what it is to you. |
C:4.2 | False idols must be brought to light and there seen as the | nothing that they are before you can love for love's sake. What is a |
C:4.5 | that doubt once occupied? No shadows linger when doubt is gone. | Nothing stands between the child of God and the child's own Source. |
C:4.18 | In this you are correct, for love is | nothing like your image of your life and has no resemblance to how |
C:4.18 | special way to you alone, and you to him or her. Your love life has | nothing to do with your work life, your issues of survival here, your |
C:4.26 | You prepare for everything that goes on outside yourself and | nothing that occurs within. Yet it is a joining that occurs within |
C:5.1 | in you is wholly human and wholly divine. As the wholly divine, | nothing is unknown. As the wholly human, everything has been |
C:5.2 | your mind with senseless wanderings and thoughts that think of | nothing that is real, rejoice that there is a way to end this chaos. |
C:5.2 | there is a way to end this chaos. The world you see is chaos and | nothing in it, including your thoughts, are trustworthy. This is why |
C:5.18 | You thus become a body moving through a world of illusion where | nothing is real and nothing is happening in truth. This illusionary |
C:5.18 | a body moving through a world of illusion where nothing is real and | nothing is happening in truth. This illusionary world is full of |
C:5.19 | There is | nothing in your world that cannot be made holy through relationship |
C:9.8 | you are and made this of yourself. You did not create something from | nothing and you did not usurp the power of God. You took what God |
C:9.18 | separate and alone you also made the choice for fear? Fear is | nothing but a choice, and it can be replaced by choice of another |
C:9.28 | creator. This is your salvation. You did not create something from | nothing, and what you started with is what God created and remains as |
C:10.17 | situation or event?” For choice is always involved before the fact. | Nothing happens to the Son of God by accident. This observation will |
C:11.12 | that could never truly occur—you have chosen instead to do | nothing at all with your free will but make this one insane choice. |
C:11.17 | This is a call that requires you to do | nothing but to remain faithful to it. You do not need to think about |
C:12.4 | of what to leave outside of yourself. Yet you must understand that | nothing that is not part of God is worthy of joining, nor can join |
C:12.7 | would strive to keep, and yet deep down you realize that you know | nothing with the certainty you seek. |
C:12.22 | aspect of life that preceded it. The idea of separation changed | nothing in reality, but became a drama acted out upon a stage so real |
C:13.5 | longing or sadness of any kind. Because it is complete, it will ask | nothing of you, but will seem to offer you a warm welcome, as if you |
C:14.11 | brought you joy. Within it you were happy and felt as if you needed | nothing more than this. It was a relationship so intense that at its |
C:14.13 | entirely. For at least one brief moment, this was true love, for | nothing but love can be the cause of joy, nor offer a haven of safety |
C:14.17 | of a universe? What is a universe but itself and everything in it? | Nothing would seem to exist outside of it, and so it must be unique. |
C:14.27 | replace the other. What is real is all-inclusive. What is unreal is | nothing. |
C:14.28 | your separated self who quickly rushes in with love's replacement. | Nothing but fear could take the memory of love from you, or replace |
C:16.10 | that oppose each other. How can this be reason? The truth opposes | nothing, nor does love. |
C:16.15 | worked before will somehow miraculously work in the future. You have | nothing but evidence of a life of unhappiness and despair, where |
C:16.23 | Your birthright is simply the right to be who you are, and there is | nothing in the world that has the power to take this right from you. |
C:16.24 | bow down to those whom you have given it to, for you are afraid of | nothing more than your own power. |
C:17.14 | of the whole along with you. All that has proceeded from fear is | nothing, and has no existence apart from your own thoughts. |
C:20.9 | to weariness and gently lays it aside. Time has ended and there is | nothing you must do. Being replaces identity and you say, I am. I am, |
C:20.9 | do. Being replaces identity and you say, I am. I am, and there is | nothing outside of me. Nothing outside of the embrace. |
C:20.9 | and you say, I am. I am, and there is nothing outside of me. | Nothing outside of the embrace. |
C:20.13 | The time of parables has ended. A new time of no time awaits. | Nothing is like unto anything else. Likeness, like thingness, has |
C:20.20 | apart from you? Oneness with Christ, dear brother and sister, is | nothing more than this concept realized. And also nothing less. |
C:20.20 | and sister, is nothing more than this concept realized. And also | nothing less. |
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:20.48 | the view from love's angle. It is the view of the dying who realize | nothing matters but love. This realization is not one of sentiment, |
C:21.8 | understand that you give meaning to all things, and that there is | nothing and no one external to you who can determine meaning for you. |
C:23.27 | over learning situations is a reflection of belief that you have | nothing to learn. An attitude of openness is required for unlearning |
C:25.3 | you feel indifference, knowledge of things about which you know | nothing. But those who have tried to fake love cannot do it. The same |
C:25.7 | When you feel lack of love, you feel as if the “other” gives you | nothing. Yet it is your lack of ability to receive that causes this |
C:25.24 | you might as well try the new way. Remind yourself that you have | nothing to lose. You will soon learn that this is so. You will also |
C:26.3 | and glory, results in many tragedy-less lives. “Nothing ventured, | nothing gained,” is an axiom for such lives. Fear of the “fall” is a |
C:28.12 | what you have gained. You may be asking now, “Are you saying to do | nothing?” At the thought of this you will be aghast and, what is |
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 | are, and in that remembrance transforms the rest, leaving you with | nothing to be ashamed of, nothing to keep hidden, leaving you with |
C:31.20 | transforms the rest, leaving you with nothing to be ashamed of, | nothing to keep hidden, leaving you with nothing but the truth of who |
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 |
C:31.29 | what you think your brothers and sisters want to see, they can learn | nothing from you. If your truth about who you think you are changes |
T1:1.5 | in truth is love. All that illusion provided you with was | nothing. Thus your first task as you remember and re-experience is |
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 |
T1:5.7 | from the recognition of the all you are capable of finding and the | nothing in which you reside. |
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. |
T1:9.6 | You remembered that something does not come from nothing and that | nothing is all that exists without relationship. |
T1:10.7 | from you. But as you have been told before, you will be giving up | nothing. It will seem as if it is so for a while perhaps. You will |
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. |
T2:9.8 | have as the already accomplished. All that you would give will take | nothing away from you. |
T2:11.6 | All cannot be threatened by | nothing. |
T3:1.11 | each one as learned as that which an actor might portray. You saw | nothing more amiss in being a professional self in one instance and a |
T3:3.2 | All of your personal characteristics are | nothing more than a persona that has served the ego faithfully. All |
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 |
T3:13.8 | “I am safe and | nothing that I do or do not do will threaten my safety.” |
T3:14.1 | new thought system will still exist within your mind and heart, as | nothing can now take this memory from you, but to experience the new |
T3:14.5 | changes will not cause them to be other than who they are. There is | nothing wrong with who you are! |
T3:14.6 | The changes that come to you will be chosen changes. You will lose | nothing you would keep. |
T3:14.9 | how little consequence they had in truth. These fearful choices took | nothing from you or from others. |
T3:15.5 | surely prove to you that the new beginning is but an act and that | nothing has really changed. A student who failed to learn the prior |
T3:16.1 | are, in truth, unacceptable to God. You are asked to give up | nothing but unwillingness. |
T3:16.16 | caused them to only seem to be intertwined and all encompassing. | Nothing but the truth is all encompassing. Illusion is made of parts |
T3:19.8 | behavior that is not of love, is of fear. All that comes of fear is | nothing. What this means is that cause and effect are not influenced |
T3:20.15 | My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, let | nothing call you to return to the ways of old. They do not work! To |
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! |
T3:21.18 | identity, but as representing your identity, an identity that has | nothing to do with the thoughts of a separated mind or the |
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 | truth say the same thing but in different ways. There seems to be | nothing new to be said, nothing to move you beyond this point that |
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:3.22 | brothers and sisters as much as they are of God. I am teaching you | nothing, nothing old and nothing new. I am reminding you of what you |
D:3.22 | and sisters as much as they are of God. I am teaching you nothing, | nothing old and nothing new. I am reminding you of what you know as I |
D:3.22 | much as they are of God. I am teaching you nothing, nothing old and | nothing new. I am reminding you of what you know as I have reminded |

D:15.7 | story without movement. There is no story to tell without movement. | Nothing is happening. So movement might be likened to something |
D:17.7 | alone in your glory or achievement and you marvel that this takes | nothing from your feeling of accomplishment. You want to share it |
D:17.19 | To revere is to feel awe, which, it has been stated, is due | nothing and no one but God. To move beyond desire to reverence is to |
D:Day1.1 | Self. Acceptance of me is acceptance of your inheritance. This is | nothing new to those of you of the Christian faith. To others it will |

D:Day3.13 | of “if this, then that.” The idea of abundance earned. The idea of | nothing being truly free. Not you, and not your gifts. Everything |
D:Day3.25 | Remember, you have learned that | nothing is “given,” for what use would you have of learning if such |
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:Day4.30 | is natural. Your thinking, since it is a product of learning, does | nothing but attempt to learn or teach. These are the natural |
D:Day4.53 | If you move forward only with love, you will have realized there is | nothing unacceptable about who you are except fear. |
D:Day4.54 | you back. This is what the time of acceptance was meant to show you! | Nothing can hold you back except fear! You do not have to be perfect |
D:Day6.14 | if only you could be truly “taken away” from it all and experience | nothing but our relationship, focus on nothing but your point of |
D:Day6.14 | from it all and experience nothing but our relationship, focus on | nothing but your point of access, have a chance to really begin to |
D:Day6.26 | You know our task is holy and incomparable. You know there is | nothing more important for you to be involved in. All other areas |
D:Day7.2 | ills that came from the base emotion of fear. Fear is degenerating. | Nothing about fear is life giving. You thus were given life only to |
D:Day7.3 | with love. Love is life giving and life supporting. There is thus | nothing now degenerating about life. |
D:Day9.6 | Freedom is | nothing other than freedom of expression. No one can block the |
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:Day11.7 | God would not know God. It is that which differentiates all from | nothing. Because it is that which differentiates, it is that which |
D:Day12.3 | love of the One Self. The One Self loves Its Self. There is | nothing else to love. The One Self is the All. |
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:Day16.9 | you not feared and expelled them, you would have seen that they were | nothing to fear. |
D:Day16.14 | either love or fear. This is because love is everything and fear is | nothing. |
D:Day17.8 | beings. The universe, as well as human beings, are comprised of | nothing that is superfluous, but only of the necessary in the sense |
D:Day21.3 | Nothing was capable of being taught or learned without the reception | |
D:Day21.6 | divine life force that exists in everything and everyone. There is | nothing channeled to one that isn't channeled to all. The old notions |
D:Day22.7 | the unknown knowable. You realize that you have known a place where | nothing but love exists, where there is no suffering, no death, no |
D:Day24.2 | of every smallest particle of existence. Wholeness exists in you. | Nothing can take wholeness from you. It is as natural to you as it is |
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:Day25.2 | when you can. Allow the mind to fight back when you cannot. Resist | nothing. |
D:Day25.7 | mind or the question of “What am I looking for?” You are looking for | nothing. You are tending your garden. |
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:Day34.2 | are the same. In relationship, the difference between all and | nothing is everything. So too is it with creation and destruction. |
D:Day35.20 | been, but to create as who you truly are being. You are called to | nothing short of creating a new heaven and a new earth. This does |
D:Day36.3 | between your earliest memory and the present moment and it would say | nothing about you if it related the experiences only as physical |
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:1.40 | hand, induce [interpersonal] action. Miracles are more useful | now because of their [impersonal] nature. In this phase of |
Tx:1.92 | must be introduced from the bottom up. This is because he | now operates in space, where concepts such as “up” and “down” are |
Tx:1.106 | usurpation, which in turn produced tyranny. I told you that you are | now restored to your former role in the plan of Atonement, but you |
Tx:2.11 | separation. None of this existed before, nor does it actually exist | now. The world was made as “a natural grand division,” or a |
Tx:2.52 | The emphasis will | now be on healing. The miracle is the means, the Atonement is the |
Tx:2.63 | merely means right-mindedness in the sense that we are | now using it. The right-minded neither exalt nor depreciate the mind |
Tx:2.70 | Most of the loftier concepts of which man is capable | now are time-dependent. Charity is really a weaker reflection of a |
Tx:2.70 | right-mindedness in the limited sense in which right-mindedness can | now be attained. Charity is a way of looking at another as if he |
Tx:3.38 | and creates. These are its unequivocal functions.] The abilities man | now possesses are only shadows of his real strengths. All of his |
Tx:3.51 | was accomplished by the union of my will with the Father's. We can | now make a distinction which will greatly facilitate clarity in our |
Tx:3.76 | belief that they are is implicit in the “self concept,” a concept | now made acceptable by its weakness and explained by a tendency of |
Tx:4.10 | Teaching and learning are your greatest strengths | now, because you must change your mind and help others change |
Tx:4.17 | totally without the investment in fear. Your investment is great | now because fear is a witness to the separation, and your ego |
Tx:4.26 | happened in the dim past when it is so clearly happening right | now? |
Tx:4.29 | you need precisely what would hurt you most. Whether you know it | now or not, however, you have willed to cooperate in a concerted |
Tx:4.48 | It should be apparent to you by | now why the ego regards the Soul as its “enemy.” The ego arose from |
Tx:4.82 | Immortality is a constant state. It is as true | now as it ever was or ever will be because it implies no change at |
Tx:4.89 | This is only because I completed my part in it as a man and can | now complete it through other men. My chosen receiving and sending |
Tx:4.94 | It should be clear by | now that, while the content of any particular ego-illusion does not |
Tx:5.21 | You knew as you will know again, but as you do not know | now. God does not guide because He can share only perfect knowledge. |
Tx:5.26 | are not things; they are devotions. Yet you have other devotions | now. Your divided devotion has given you the two voices, and you must |
Tx:5.26 | must choose at which altar you will to serve. The call you answer | now is an evaluation because it is a decision. The decision itself |
Tx:5.48 | wise though incomplete. Let us make the distinction a little sharper | now. Neurotic guilt feelings are a device of the ego for “atoning” |
Tx:5.51 | as much as you learn and that will keep you in balance. The time is | now because you have let it be now. You cannot learn except by |
Tx:5.51 | keep you in balance. The time is now because you have let it be | now. You cannot learn except by teaching. |
Tx:5.81 | the Sonship in the name of its Creator. What you need to learn | now is that only infinite patience can produce immediate effects. |
Tx:5.93 | But the time is | now. You have not been asked to work out the plan of salvation |
Tx:6.23 | [It was as much intrapersonal as interpersonal then, just as it is | now, and it is still just as real. But because it is just as real |
Tx:6.23 | is now, and it is still just as real. But because it is just as real | now, its lesson, too, has equal reality when it is learned.] I do |
Tx:6.30 | unalterable. It is total inclusion. You cannot change it | now or ever. It is forever true. It is not a belief but a fact. |
Tx:6.52 | abilities are meaningless. It is curious that the perfect must | now be perfected. In fact, it is impossible. You must remember, |
Tx:6.63 | of difficulty in miracles. This is familiar enough to you by | now, but it has not yet become believable. Therefore, you do not |
Tx:6.72 | increase conflict temporarily, and we can clarify this still further | now. |
Tx:6.81 | fundamental change will occur. You are only beginning this step | now, but you have started on this way by realizing that only one way |
Tx:6.92 | that you perceive its wholeness and have learned that it is one. | Now you must be vigilant to hold its oneness in your minds because, |
Tx:6.95 | what you made because it was not true. Therefore, you must | now turn your effort against it. Only this can cancel out the |
Tx:7.7 | God [was said to] take was therefore true in the beginning, is true | now, and will be true forever. |
Tx:7.19 | three apples are not there. But it is not true that the table is | now minus three apples. If there is nothing on the table, it does |
Tx:8.110 | will hear me. Listening to truth is the only way you can hear it | now and finally know it. |
Tx:9.13 | perfect sense because they come from God. They are as sensible | now as they ever were, because they speak of ideas which are eternal. |
Tx:9.15 | so typical of the ego that you should be quite familiar with it by | now. The ego believes that all functions belong to it, even though |
Tx:9.20 | of the ego. Let us consider the unhealed healer more carefully | now. By definition, he is trying to give what he has not |
Tx:9.66 | you will know what you remember is eternal and therefore is | now. |
Tx:10.40 | looking at is the source of fear, but you have surely learned by | now that fear is not real. We have accepted the fact already that |
Tx:10.62 | accomplished, and it has been accomplished in you. This is as true | now as it will ever be, for the resurrection is the Will of God, |
Tx:10.62 | we ascend unto the Father together, as it was in the beginning, is | now, and ever shall be, for such is the nature of God's Son as His |
Tx:11.96 | You are immortal because you are eternal and always must be | now. Guilt, then, is a way of holding past and future in your minds |
Tx:12.23 | And | now the reason why you are afraid of this course should be apparent. |
Tx:12.27 | if it were present. Thus it dictates reactions to those you meet | now from a past reference point, obscuring their present reality. |
Tx:12.30 | of eternity which this world offers. It is in the reality of | now, without past or future, that the beginning of the appreciation |
Tx:12.30 | that the beginning of the appreciation of eternity lies. For only | now is here, and it presents the opportunities for the holy |
Tx:12.45 | illusions, ask yourself if it is really sane to perceive what was | now. If you remember the past as you look upon your brother, you |
Tx:12.47 | have it past and gone, you must not see it now. If you see it | now in your delusions, it has not gone from you, although it is not |
Tx:12.52 | Now is the time of salvation, for now is the release from time. | |
Tx:12.52 | Now is the time of salvation, for | now is the release from time. Reach out to all your brothers and |
Tx:13.27 | to heal and teach, to make what will be now. As yet it is not | now. The Son of God believes that he is lost in guilt, alone in a |
Tx:13.47 | alone their seeming clearness seems to be clearly seen. Let us | now turn away from them and follow the simple logic by which the Holy |
Tx:14.17 | and you who made these guardians of illusion out of nothing are | now afraid of them. |
Tx:14.65 | it. And I will not use my own past learning as the light to guide me | now. |
Tx:15.6 | The ego teaches that Heaven is here and | now because the future is hell. Even when it attacks so savagely |
Tx:15.21 | Start | now to practice your little part in separating out the holy instant. |
Tx:15.53 | remembers nothing, having always known you exactly as He knows you | now. The holy instant parallels His knowing by bringing all |
Tx:16.16 | for truth? For you have come too near to truth to renounce it | now, and you will yield to its compelling attraction. You can delay |
Tx:16.16 | you will yield to its compelling attraction. You can delay this | now but only a little while. The Host of God has called to you, and |
Tx:16.31 | This is the last step in the readiness for God. Be not unwilling | now. You are too near, and you will cross the bridge in perfect |
Tx:16.65 | took to fix your minds so firmly on illusions. Delay will hurt you | now more than before only because you realize it is delay and that |
Tx:16.67 | not back with longing on the travesty it made of your relationships. | Now no one need suffer, for you have come too far to yield to the |
Tx:17.24 | In brief, the past is | now your justification for entering into a continuing, unholy |
Tx:17.32 | You have but little difficulty | now in realizing that the thought system which the special |
Tx:17.36 | truth, you threaten truth with destruction. And your defense must | now be undertaken to keep truth whole. The power of Heaven, the |
Tx:17.40 | Heaven and eternity grows more convincing as you look at it. And | now by real comparison a transformation of both pictures can at |
Tx:17.45 | condition, your goal was all that seemed to give it meaning. | Now it seems to make no sense. Many relationships have been broken |
Tx:17.46 | of the relationship is so apparent that they cannot coexist. Yet | now the goal will not be changed. Set firmly in the unholy |
Tx:17.48 | goal be set for you. That was an act of faith. Do not abandon faith, | now that the rewards of faith are being introduced. If you believed |
Tx:17.48 | Holy Spirit was there to accept the relationship, why would you | now not still believe that He is there to purify what He has taken |
Tx:17.48 | goal is set. And your relationship has sanity as its purpose. For | now you find yourselves in an insane relationship, recognized as |
Tx:17.49 | Now the ego counsels thus—substitute for this another | |
Tx:17.49 | areas of fantasy from each other to save your sanity. Hear not this | now! Have faith in Him Who answered you. He heard. Has He not been |
Tx:17.49 | He heard. Has He not been very explicit in His answer? You are not | now wholly insane. Can you deny that He has given you a most |
Tx:17.49 | Can you deny that He has given you a most explicit statement? | Now He asks for faith a little longer, even in bewilderment. For this |
Tx:17.49 | your faith emerge to bring you shining conviction. Abandon Him not | now, nor each other. This relationship has been reborn as holy. |
Tx:17.50 | once sought for satisfaction and thought you found it. Forget not | now the misery you really found, and do not now breathe life into |
Tx:17.50 | found it. Forget not now the misery you really found, and do not | now breathe life into your failing egos. For your relationship has |
Tx:17.51 | hand to walk together along a road far more familiar than you | now believe. Is it not certain that you will remember a goal |
Tx:17.52 | in His blessing, and withhold not yours upon it. For all it needs | now is your blessing that you may see that in it rests salvation. |
Tx:17.53 | grown dim in what seemed to be the light of the mistakes? You are | now entering upon a campaign to blame each other for the discomfort |
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:17.57 | it must be clear. The setting of the Holy Spirit's goal is general. | Now He will work with you to make it specific [for application is |
Tx:17.57 | beyond each situation in an understanding far broader than you | now possess. |
Tx:17.59 | happen. No goal was set with which to bring the means in line. And | now the only judgment left to make is whether or not the ego likes it |
Tx:17.60 | The false becomes the useless from this point of view. The situation | now has meaning, but only because the goal has made it meaningful. |
Tx:17.76 | has been demonstrated has called for faith and has been given it. | Now it becomes a fact from which faith can no longer be withheld. |
Tx:17.78 | as yours. You have assumed your part in his redemption, and you are | now fully responsible to him. Fail him not now, for it has been given |
Tx:17.78 | redemption, and you are now fully responsible to him. Fail him not | now, for it has been given you to realize what your lack of faith in |
Tx:17.79 | change. And nothing that it needs to be forever changeless can you | now withhold from it. Your release is certain. Give as you have |
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:18.46 | The power of joining and its blessing lie in the fact that it is | now impossible for either of you to experience fear alone or to |
Tx:18.48 | him, or he without me. Yet it is wholly possible for us to share it | now. And so I choose this instant as the one to offer to the Holy |
Tx:18.67 | restores the universe to both of you. You are prepared. | Now you need but to remember you need do nothing. It would be far |
Tx:18.67 | to remember you need do nothing. It would be far more profitable | now merely to concentrate on this than to consider what you should |
Tx:18.83 | would welcome you. He has waited long to give you this. Receive it | now of Him, for He would have you know Him. Only a little wall of |
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:19.46 | the fixed and unchangeable dedication to sin and its results. | Now it is aimless, wandering pointlessly, causing no more than tiny |
Tx:19.64 | limitless? The end of guilt is in your hands to give. Would you stop | now to look for guilt in each other? |
Tx:19.95 | And | now you stand in terror before what you swore never to look upon. |
Tx:19.95 | “protectors,” and your “home” will vanish. Nothing that you remember | now will you remember. |
Tx:20.2 | in one hand and lilies in the other, uncertain which to give. Join | now with me and throw away the thorns, offering the lilies to replace |
Tx:20.8 | offer me. And yet the thorns are gone. Look you still closer at them | now, and you will see your altar is no longer what it was. |
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:20.11 | and no obstacles to peace. The fear of God is nothing to you | now. Who is afraid to look upon illusions, knowing his savior stands |
Tx:20.11 | has been carefully prepared for you, and it is ready to receive you | now. You will not see it with the body's eyes. Yet all you need you |
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:20.14 | Son of God is risen from the past and has awakened to the present. | Now is he free, unlimited in his communion with all that is within |
Tx:20.14 | is he free, unlimited in his communion with all that is within him. | Now are the lilies of his innocence untouched by guilt and perfectly |
Tx:20.14 | is free to guide you safely through them and beyond. Walk with him | now rejoicing, for the savior from illusions has come to greet you |
Tx:20.15 | released from crucifixion through your vision and free to lead you | now where he would be. He will not leave you nor forsake the savior |
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:26.39 | 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 |
W1:184.14 | which kept us blind. And we are given strength to see beyond them. | Now our sight is blessed with blessings we can give as we receive. |
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 |
W1:185.8 | dismayed by lingering illusions, for their form is not what matters | now. Let not some dreams be more acceptable, reserving shame and |
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 |
W1:187.10 | Now are we one in thought, for fear has gone. And here, before the | |
W1:187.11 | Now are we blessed, and now we bless the world. What we have looked | |
W1:187.11 | Now are we blessed, and | now we bless the world. What we have looked upon we would extend, for |
W1:188.1 | seek the light are merely covering their eyes. The light is in them | now. Enlightenment is but a recognition, not a change at all. Light |
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 |
W1:192.4 | the fear of death is overcome because it holds no fierce attraction | now, and guilt is gone. |
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 |
W1:192.10 | He is as God created him. And you are what he is. Forgive him | now his sins, and you will see that you are one with him. |
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. |
W1:195.3 | despair so bitter and relentless that there is no hope remaining. | Now is vengeance all there is to wish for. Now can you but try to |
W1:195.3 | is no hope remaining. Now is vengeance all there is to wish for. | Now can you but try to bring him down to lie in death with you, as |
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 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:13.3 | what a sacrifice—and it is sacrifice indeed—all this entails! | Now has the mind condemned itself to seek without finding, to be |
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:6.4 | accept that they were the same as me. They were then, and you are | now, no different than I. We are all the same because we are not |
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. |
