Tx:17.10  that you will barely have time to thank God for it. For God will  take the last step swiftly when you have reached the real world and
Tx:17.35  distract you. This gift is given you for your damnation, and if you  take it, you will believe that you are damned. You cannot have

Tx:20.6  and received. For bodies can neither offer nor accept; hold out nor  take. Only the mind can value, and only the mind decides on what it

Tx:20.41  thus, the means and end have not been brought in line. Why should it  take so many holy instants to let this be accomplished, when one
Tx:20.74  do is recognize you did this. Once you accept this simple fact and  take unto yourself the power you gave them, you are released from
Tx:21.21  the statement that he has the power to make God powerless and so to  take it for himself and leave himself without what God has willed for
Tx:21.34  you use but not the purpose for which you made them. He would not  take them from you, for He sees their value as a means for what He

Tx:22.38  whole purpose of coming this far was to decide which branch you will  take now. The way you came no longer matters. It can no longer

Tx:23.24  His Son can tell Him this, and He has but the choice whether to  take his word for it or be mistaken. This leads directly to the third
Tx:23.27  becomes your gain, and thus it fails to recognize that you can never  take away save from yourself. Yet all the other laws must lead to
Tx:23.28  But in a savage world, the kind cannot survive, so they must  take or else be taken from.
Tx:23.32  is the belief that it is true. It is the function of insanity to  take the place of truth. It must be seen as truth to be believed.
Tx:23.36  you do believe them. For how else could you perceive the form they  take with content such as this? Can any form of this be tenable?
Tx:23.36  form of this be tenable? Yet you believe them for the form they  take and do not recognize the content. It never changes. Can you
Tx:23.40 Brothers,  take not one step in the descent to hell. For having taken one, you
Tx:23.41 Is it not true you do not recognize some of the forms attack can  take? If it is true attack in any form will hurt you and will do so
Tx:23.43  any kind. To compromise is to accept but part of what you want—to  take a little and give up the rest. Salvation gives up nothing. It is
Tx:24.3  one offering, and love is gone because you asked a substitute to  take its place. And now must war, the substitute for peace, come with
Tx:24.17  vanish as his mind accepts the truth about himself as it returns to  take their place. This is the only “cost” of truth: you will no
Tx:24.56  him truly. His mistakes can cause delay, which it is given you to  take from him that both may end a journey that has never been begun
Tx:25.15  Be glad that it is gone within your mind to darken what is there.  Take not the form for content, for the form is but a means for
Tx:25.34 You makers of a world that is not so,  take rest and comfort in another world where peace abides. This world
Tx:25.49  alike. This is the function given each of you for one another.  Take it gently then from one another's hand, and let salvation be
Tx:25.63  your salvation. But He cannot use what you withhold, for He cannot  take it from you without your willingness. For if He did, you would
Tx:25.63  you'd have no need of Him. But this He needs—that you prefer He  take it than that you keep it for yourself alone and recognize that
Tx:25.76  really understand that justice is the same for everyone? To  take from one to give another must be an injustice to them both,
Tx:25.76  he thinks he is deprived. And so must he be envious and try to  take away from whom he judges. He is not impartial and cannot fairly
Tx:25.81  is decided who shall win and who shall lose—how much the one shall  take and how much can the loser still defend.
Tx:25.86  bestow upon another. That is why your sole responsibility must be to  take forgiveness for yourself. The miracle that you receive, you
Tx:26.6  the song your brother sings to you. And let the world recede and  take the rest his witness offers on behalf of peace. But judge him
Tx:26.10  which need solving do not change, whatever form the problem seems to  take. A problem can appear in many forms, and it will do so while the
Tx:26.11  the same to Him because each one, regardless of the form it seems to  take, is a demand that someone suffer loss and make a sacrifice that
Tx:26.30  way your chosen teacher leads. There are but two directions you can  take while time remains and choice is meaningful. For never will
Tx:26.39  the dead and gone be peacefully forgotten. Resurrection has come to  take its place. And now you are a part of resurrection, not of
Tx:26.45  Without Him you are friendless. Seek not another friend to  take His place. There is no other friend. What God appointed has no
Tx:26.46  and unoccupied? Make no illusion friend, for if you do, it can but  take the place of Him whom God has called your Friend. And it is He
Tx:26.48  perception is a wish fulfilled. Perception changes, made to  take the place of changeless knowledge. Yet is truth unchanged. It
Tx:26.73 Yet the acceptance of the working out can seem to  take forever. The change of purpose the Holy Spirit brought to your

Tx:26.89  be added, for the world is purposeless except for this. To add or  take away from this one goal is but to take away all purpose from
Tx:26.89  except for this. To add or take away from this one goal is but to  take away all purpose from the world and from yourself. And each

Tx:27.11  free to be remembered. Here its peace can come and perfect healing  take the place of death. The body can become a sign of life, a
Tx:27.22  about yourself and who you are. What is the separation but a wish to  take God's function from Him and deny that it is His? Yet if it is
Tx:27.22  is not His, it is not yours, for you must lose what you would  take away.
Tx:27.34  unknown but is not canceled out. And thus is God left free to  take the final step Himself. [For this you need no pictures and
Tx:27.34  need no pictures and no learning aids.] And what will ultimately  take the place of every learning aid will merely be. Forgiveness
Tx:27.50 Problems are not specific, but they  take specific forms, and these specific shapes make up the world. And
Tx:27.58  no effects. And this it proves because its own effects have come to  take their place. It matters not the name by which you called your
Tx:27.61  And truth will be revealed to you who chose to let love's symbols  take the place of sin.

Tx:28.2  there to see. Memory, like perception, is a skill made up by you to  take the place of what God gave in your creation. And like all the
Tx:28.11  to them. Their own remembering is quiet now, and what has come to  take its place will not be wholly unremembered afterwards.
Tx:28.15  not? And where is sacrifice, when memory of God has come to  take the place of loss? What better way to close the little gap
Tx:28.38  and now. Refuse to be a part of fearful dreams whatever form they  take, for you will lose identity in them. You find yourself by
Tx:28.44 The Holy Spirit's function is to  take the broken picture of the Son of God and put the pieces into
Tx:28.45  completed 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
Tx:28.57  with every brother who would walk apart. This is the secret oath you  take again, whenever you perceive yourself attacked. No one can

Tx:29.13  them at your feet and asks you now that you will look on them and  take them for your own. He needs your help in giving them to all

Tx:29.42  a world, it is a little while till timelessness comes quietly to  take the place of time.
Tx:29.51  exists. The sacrifice of death is nothing lost. An idol cannot  take the place of God. Let Him remind you of His love for you, and do
Tx:29.55  you tremble and to quail in fear. Christ's enemy is nowhere. He can  take no form in which he ever will be real.
Tx:30.2  is not wise to let yourself become preoccupied with every step you  take. The proper set, adopted consciously each time you wake, will
Tx:30.22 6. This tiny grain of wisdom will suffice to  take you further. You are not coerced but merely hope to get a thing
Tx:30.39  form can be a substitute for God the Father's love? What form can  take the place of all the love in the divinity of God the Son? What
Tx:30.47  and death that here are dreamed, the myriad of forms that fear can  take; quite undisturbed, the Thought God holds of you remains exactly
Tx:30.72  understanding is the only change that lets the real world rise to  take the place of dreams of terror. Fear cannot arise unless attack

Tx:31.26  his sins, but only for your own. Whatever form his sins appear to  take, it but obscures the fact that you believe them to be yours and
Tx:31.33  from them by leaving them behind? What must go with you, you will  take with you whatever road you choose to walk along.
Tx:31.44  It bears no likeness to yourself at all. It is an idol, made to  take the place of your reality as Son of God. The concept of the self
Tx:31.79 Whatever form temptation seems to  take, it always but reflects a wish to be a self which you are not.

W1:2.2  Take the subjects simply as you see them. Try to apply the exercise
W1:13.8  to this concluding statement. Whatever form such resistance may  take, remind yourself that you are really afraid of such a thought
W1:15.3 As we go along, you may have many “light episodes.” They may  take many different forms, some of them quite unexpected. Do not be
W1:21.2  present or anticipated, which arouse anger in you. The anger may  take the form of any reaction ranging from mild irritation to rage.
W1:26.3  no longer believe in yourself. A false image of yourself has come to  take the place of what you are.
W1:26.6  situations whose outcomes are causing you concern. The concern may  take the form of depression, worry, anger, a sense of imposition,
W1:33.5  idea the instant you are aware of distress. It may be necessary to  take a minute or so to sit quietly and repeat the idea to yourself
W1:34.5  form of temptation arises in your awareness, the exercise should  take this form:
W1:34.7 If the inroads on your peace of mind  take the form of more generalized adverse emotions, such as
W1:34.7  idea to help you change your mind in any specific context, try to  take several minutes and devote them to repeating the idea until you
W1:36.2  protection throughout the day. The longer practice periods should  take this form:
W1:39.6  fear, worry, attack, insecurity, and so on. Whatever form they  take, they are unloving and therefore fearful. And so it is from them
W1:40.3 Today's exercises  take little time and no effort. Repeat today's idea, and then add
W1:41.2  And foolishness it is, despite the serious and tragic forms it may  take. Deep within you is everything that is perfect, ready to radiate
W1:45.4 Our three five-minute practice periods for today will  take the same general form that we used in applying yesterday's idea.
W1:45.12  to you to understand the holiness of the mind that thinks with God.  Take a minute or two as you repeat the idea throughout the day to
W1:48.2  and in any situation. It is strongly recommended, however, that you  take a minute or so whenever possible to close your eyes and repeat
W1:48.3  you recognize as yet, you have remembered God and let His strength  take the place of yours. The instant you are willing to do this,
W1:51.2  let it go by realizing that it has no meaning so that vision may  take its place.
W1:51.5  with God. I am not aware of them because I have made my thoughts to  take their place. I am willing to recognize that my thoughts do not

W1:62.3  all sense of weakness, strain, and fatigue from your mind. It will  take away all fear and guilt and pain. It will restore the

W1:72.1  which are actually associated with the ego, while the ego appears to  take on the attributes of God.
W1:72.7  As a body, do not let yourself be deprived of what the body offers.  Take the little you can get. God gave you nothing. The body is your

W1:78.12 We will remember this throughout the day and  take the role assigned to us as part of God's salvation plan, and not
W1:80.1  conflict has been given you. Accept that fact, and you are ready to  take your rightful place in God's plan for salvation.
W1:R2.2 The longer practice periods will follow this general form:  take about 15 minutes for each of them, and begin by thinking about
W1:R2.3  distracting thoughts. Realize that, whatever form such thoughts may  take, they have no meaning and no power. Replace them with your
W1:83.3 More specific applications of this idea might  take these forms:
W1:91.10  about your attributes to be corrected, and their opposites to  take their place. Say, for example:
W1:97.6 The Holy Spirit will be glad to  take five minutes of each hour from your hands and carry them around
W1:98.1 Today is a day of special dedication. We  take a stand on but one side today. We side with truth and let
W1:98.1  and let illusions go. We will not vacillate between the two but  take a firm position with the one. We dedicate ourselves to truth
W1:98.1  seek for it where it is not. In gladness we accept it as it is and  take the part assigned to us by God.
W1:98.2 How happy to be certain! All our doubts we lay aside today and  take our stand with certainty of purpose and with thanks that doubt
W1:98.3  in the perfect time and place. They took the stand which we will  take today that we may share their certainty and thus increase it by
W1:98.4 They will be with us—all who took the stand we  take today will gladly offer us all that they learned and every gain
W1:98.13  Tell Him once more that you accept the part which He would have you  take and help you fill, and He will make you sure you want this
W1:100.2  choose to go against His Will? The part that He has saved for you to  take in working out His plan is given you that you might be restored
W1:100.4  so your joy on earth calls to all minds to let their sorrows go and  take their place beside you in God's plan. God's messengers are
W1:100.5 We will not let ourselves be sad today. For if we do, we fail to  take the part that is essential to God's plan as well as to our
W1:100.8  is to be happy. Only this is asked of you or anyone who wants to  take his place among God's messengers. Think what this means. You
W1:103.6  brings, as truth replaces fear, and joy becomes what you expect to  take the place of pain. God being Love, it will be given you. Bolster
W1:105.3  from the gifts you give and leaves you nothing in the ones you  take. A major learning goal this course has set is to reverse your
W1:108.1  will disappear because the Thought behind it will appear instead, to  take its place. And now we are at peace forever, for the dream is
W1:109.6  healing. No more fearful dreams will come now that you rest in God.  Take time today to slip away from dreams and into peace.
W1:109.7 Each hour that you  take your rest today, a tired mind is suddenly made glad, a bird with
W1:109.7  that you came to bring the peace of God into the world that it might  take its rest along with you.
W1:109.10  the peace of God today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to  take his rest and offer it to you.

W1:111.3  weakness is the dark His gift dispels by giving me His strength to  take its place.

W1:123.2  Be grateful He has saved you from the self you thought you made to  take the place of Him and His creation. Give Him thanks today.
W1:127.6  all the changes which you think are part of human destiny. Today we  take the largest single step this course requests in your advance
W1:129.5  see again the world you do not want. Here is the world that comes to  take its place as you unbind your mind from little things the world
W1:129.6  Let it be given you today. It waits but for your choosing it to  take the place of all the things you seek but do not want.
W1:129.11  grateful that the choice is made. Remember your decision hourly, and  take a moment to confirm your choice by laying by whatever thoughts
W1:130.10  there. For you have called upon the great unfailing Power Who will  take this giant step with you in gratitude. Nor will you fail to see
W1:130.12  the release of Heaven still remains within your range of choice to  take the place of everything that hell would show to you. All you
W1:131.10  a paradox in place of truth. How could the Son of God make time to  take away the Will of God? He thus denies himself and contradicts
W1:133.2  ask for sorrow, not for happiness. This course does not attempt to  take from you the little that you have. It does not try to substitute
W1:133.7  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 there
W1:133.8 Next, if you choose to  take a thing away from someone else, you will have nothing left. This
W1:133.8  the things you really have, denying they are there. Who seeks to  take away has been deceived by the illusion loss can offer gain. Yet

W1:135.28  to you without your planning. Learn today. And all the world will  take this giant stride and celebrate your Eastertime with you.
W1:136.7  that they stand but for your own decision of what should be real, to  take the place of what is real.
W1:136.18 Healing will flash across your open mind as peace and truth arise to  take the place of war and vain imaginings. There will be no dark
W1:137.5  that have not occurred. Just as the real world will arise to  take the place of what has never been at all, healing but offers
W1:137.16  to hold but what you give, and to receive the Word of God to  take the place of all the foolish thoughts that ever were imagined.
W1:138.6 In this insanely complicated world, Heaven appears to  take the form of choice rather than merely being what it is. Of all
W1:140.4  can be nothing but a dream is not deceived by forms the dream may  take. Sickness where guilt is absent cannot come, for it is but
W1:140.14  we learn today. And we will say our prayer for healing hourly and  take a minute as the hour strikes to hear the answer to our prayer be

W1:R4.6  mind holds only what you think with God. Your self-deceptions cannot  take the place of truth. No more than can a child who throws a stick
W1:152.8  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 the altar to the
W1:153.1  its brief relationships and all the “gifts” it merely lends to  take away again, attend this lesson well. The world provides no

W1:153.13  more to play our final happy game upon this earth. And then we go to  take our rightful place where truth abides and games are meaningless.
W1:153.20  as He tells us, “I am here.” Your practicing will now begin to  take the earnestness of love to help you keep your mind from
W1:158.9  because a vision of the holiness which lies beyond them comes to  take their place. It matters not what form they took nor how enormous
W1:159.9  Take from His storehouse that its treasures may increase. His lilies
W1:160.3  could the reason be except that you had asked this stranger in to  take your place and let you be a stranger to yourself? No one would
W1:161.1 Today we practice differently and  take a stand against our anger, that our fears may disappear and
W1:161.9  you could scarce refrain from kneeling at his feet. Yet you will  take his hand instead, for you are like him in the sight that sees
W1:161.12  of one who can forgive you all your sins, whose sacred hands can  take the nails which pierce your own away and lift the crown of
W1:163.3  when the time has come for its arrival. It will never fail to  take all life as hostage to itself.
W1:163.8  Whatever form it takes must therefore be illusion. This the stand we  take today. And it is given us to look past death and see the life
W1:167.4  change. It is the fixed belief ideas can leave their source and  take on qualities the source does not contain, becoming different
W1:169.8  forever as it always was; forever to remain as it is now. We merely  take the part assigned long since and fully recognized as perfectly
W1:169.10  matter. For your part is still what all the rest depends on. As you  take the role assigned to you, salvation comes a little nearer each
W1:R5.1  we are preparing for another phase of understanding. We would  take this step completely, that we may go on again more certain, more
W1:R5.7  is This that waits to meet us at the journey's ending. Every step we  take brings us a little nearer. This review will shorten time
W1:R5.8 I  take the journey with you. For I share your doubts and fears a little

W1:184.12  inheritance He gave to those who chose the teaching of the world to  take the place of Heaven. In our practicing, our purpose is to let

W1:186.1 Here is the statement that will one day  take all arrogance away from every mind. Here is the thought of true
W1:186.2  to do we have the strength to do. Our minds are suited perfectly to  take the part assigned to us by One Who knows us well.
W1:187.6  Nor can he fail to recognize the many forms which sacrifice may  take. He laughs as well at pain and loss, at sickness and at grief,
W1:187.7  of sacrifice gives rise to all the forms that suffering appears to  take. And sacrifice is an idea so mad that sanity dismisses it at
W1:187.9  on here. Be not afraid to look. The blessedness you will behold will  take away all thought of form and leave instead the perfect gift
W1:188.8 We practice coming nearer to the light in us today. We  take our wandering thoughts and gently bring them back to where they

W1:193.20  the Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to Heaven. God will  take this final step Himself. Do not deny the little steps He asks
W1:193.20  this final step Himself. Do not deny the little steps He asks you  take to Him.
W1:195.2  and with happiness. Nor could the even partly sane refuse to  take the steps which He directs and follow in the way He sets before
W1:196.4 Today's idea is one step we  take in leading us from bondage to the state of perfect freedom. Let

W1:196.8 Our next steps will be easy if you  take this one today. From there we go ahead quite rapidly. For once
W1:197.1 Here is the second step we  take to free your mind from the belief in outside force pitted
W1:197.4  thankfully acknowledged by the Heart of God Himself. And would you  take them back when He has gratefully accepted them?
W1:197.6  what is given you has been withdrawn. But learn to let forgiveness  take away the sins you think you see outside yourself, and you can

W1:R6.1 For this review, we  take but one idea each day, and practice it as often as is possible.

W2:318.2 Let me today, my Father,  take the role You offer me in Your request that I accept Atonement
W2:324.1  for my salvation to me. You have set the way I am to go, the role to  take, and every step in my appointed path. I cannot lose the way. I
W2:327.1 I am not asked to  take salvation on the basis of an unsupported faith. For God has

C:3.23  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:11.5  Course—your awareness of what love is—and no earthly course can  take you beyond this goal. It is only your willingness that is
C:11.9  so. But because you view free will as all you have that God cannot  take away from you, you have not yet given up its protection. It does
C:11.9  it is insane to think that He who has given you everything seeks to  take anything away from you. While you still view yourself as a body,
C:11.9  God you think you know has given you everything, but He can also  take it all away, and in the end He surely will. He then will judge

C:12.18 You may very well say, however, that an idea seemed to  take on a life of its own and compel you to do things you might have
C:12.21  so too, did this idea of separation. But just as your ideas do not  take on a life of their own even though they at times seem to, this

C:23.26  you have so long sought, you will indeed feel tested and will try to  take control of the learning situation. Not taking control, however,
C:25.18  to happen will happen. While you may expect that everything will  take on greater importance, the reverse will at first be true. You
C:25.20 You may also notice a growth in your desire to  take credit for what you have created, and a desire to create anew.
C:25.20  reassert the self. This need will arise as you realize that you can  take no credit for your life. Wanting to take credit is of the ego,
C:25.20  as you realize that you can take no credit for your life. Wanting to  take credit is of the ego, and at this stage the desire to create may
C:25.21  attempt to make conscious decisions the quicker your unlearning will  take place and the lessons of discernment occur. Discernment is
C:26.11  for signs? Read books that have promised you a series of steps to  take to get where you want to go, only to realize you know not where
C:26.19  asks only that you be open and allow giving and receiving as one to  take place. It asks only that you be unoccupied with the old so that

C:30.3 Your learning must  take on a new focus. Be like the little children, and inhale the
C:30.14  the laws of God. It is only in your perception that the laws of man  take precedence over the laws of God. Since perception arises from
C:31.6  You know that if you had to consciously cause these functions to  take place, you would surely die, for managing the workings of the

T1:6.2 How is this revelation to  take place? It will begin by learning the art of thought as the act
T1:7.1  inability to be who you truly are, a being existing in union.  Take away all, for the moment, that you would strive to be, and the

T1:8.3  of the truth of an historical event changes over time and it may  take a hundred or a thousand or even two thousand years for the real

Tx:6.70  the result of their own dissociation and projection. What you  teach you are, but it is quite apparent that you can teach wrongly
Tx:6.70  What you teach you are, but it is quite apparent that you can  teach wrongly and therefore teach yourselves wrong. Many thought
Tx:6.78 To have peace,  teach peace to learn it.
Tx:6.84 The Holy Spirit does not  teach your mind to be critical of other minds, because He does not
Tx:6.84  mind to be critical of other minds, because He does not want you to  teach errors and learn them yourselves. He would hardly be
Tx:6.88  what to choose, the Holy Spirit will ultimately be able to  teach you that you need not choose at all. This will finally
Tx:6.90  yourself from it in your belief. It is therefore essential to  teach you that you must be included and that the belief that you
Tx:6.92  by the Immeasurable, the learning itself must be incomplete. To  teach the whole Sonship without exception demonstrates that you
Tx:6.92  you will lose awareness of its wholeness and will be unable to  teach it.
Tx:6.94  of me as much as of you, but remember that those who will to  teach the same thing must be in agreement about what they believe.
Tx:6.95  want Him to guide you. Vigilance does require effort, but only to  teach you that effort itself is unnecessary. You have exerted great
Tx:7.7  steps, because His accomplishments are not gradual. He does not  teach, because His creations are changeless. He does nothing last,
Tx:7.22 The ego does not want to  teach everyone all it has learned, because that would defeat its
Tx:7.22  at all. The Holy Spirit teaches you to use what the ego has made to  teach the opposite of what the ego has learned. The kind of
Tx:7.34 The Holy Spirit must work through you to  teach you He is in you. This is an intermediary step toward the
Tx:7.40  because it is also the impulse to create, the ego can only  teach you that the body can both communicate and create and
Tx:7.40  create and therefore does not need the mind. The ego thus tries to  teach you that the body can act like the mind and is therefore
Tx:7.40  and learners because, as has been repeatedly emphasized, you  teach what you do believe. An inconsistent lesson will be poorly
Tx:7.40  lesson will be poorly taught and poorly learned. If you  teach both sickness and healing, you are both a poor teacher and
Tx:7.73  the Sonship are dispelled together, as they were made together.  Teach no one that he is what you would not want to be. Your
Tx:7.75  do nothing apart from Him. Keep His way to remember yourselves and  teach His way, lest you forget yourselves. Give only honor to the
Tx:7.77 One Child of God is the only teacher sufficiently worthy to  teach another. One Teacher is in all your minds, and He teaches the
Tx:7.77  believe they are deprived. Give therefore of your abundance and  teach your brothers theirs. Do not share their delusions of
Tx:7.89 The Holy Spirit will  teach you to perceive beyond belief, because truth is beyond
Tx:7.90 The whole purpose of this course is to  teach you that the ego is unbelievable and will forever be
Tx:7.101  very apt to confuse the two. The Holy Spirit's main function is to  teach you to tell them apart. However strange it may seem that this
Tx:7.105  the Will of God, Who has not left you comfortless. His Voice will  teach you how to distinguish between pain and joy and will lead you
Tx:7.109  fear and allow him to give always without any sense of loss? Does it  teach him that this giving is his joy and that God Himself thanks
Tx:7.110  I call upon you again to remember that I have chosen you to  teach the Kingdom to the Kingdom. There are no exceptions to this
Tx:7.110  teacher, because he has learned it of the Holy Spirit, Who wants to  teach him everything He knows. When a mind has only light, it
Tx:8.8  must learn it of Him. The ego does not know what it is trying to  teach. It is trying to teach you what you are without knowing it.
Tx:8.8  The ego does not know what it is trying to teach. It is trying to  teach you what you are without knowing it. The ego is expert only
Tx:8.10 The ego cannot  teach you anything as long as your will is free, because you will not
Tx:8.10  they are one. This is the undoing of everything the ego tries to  teach. It is not, then, only the direction of the curriculum which
Tx:8.11 The ego wants to  teach you that you want to oppose God's Will. This unnatural lesson
Tx:8.12  part of your mind that taught you to believe they are the same to  teach you the difference between them?
Tx:8.16  there is no limit on your minds. There is no limit on His Will to  teach, because He was created [by unlimited Will in order] to
Tx:8.16  to teach, because He was created [by unlimited Will in order] to  teach. Knowing His function perfectly, He wills to fulfill it
Tx:8.17  an experience of total willingness. The Holy Spirit knows how to  teach this, but you do not. That is why you need Him and why God
Tx:8.18  His Fatherhood by placing no limits upon it. Let the Holy Spirit  teach you how to do this, for you will know what it means of God
Tx:8.22  else. And every holy encounter in which you enter fully will  teach you this is not so.
Tx:8.24  self is the function He gave you. Fulfilling it perfectly will  teach you what you have of Him, and this will teach you what you
Tx:8.24  it perfectly will teach you what you have of Him, and this will  teach you what you are in Him. You cannot be powerless to do
Tx:8.28  I send you to others, and I will go to them with you so we can  teach them [union and peace].
Tx:8.32  being the Will of their Father. This is the only lesson I came to  teach, knowing that it is true.
Tx:8.55  it only to reach the minds of those who believe they are bodies and  teach them through the body that this is not so, you will begin to
Tx:8.79  you to use your body only to reach your brothers, so He can  teach His message through you. This will heal them and therefore
Tx:8.80  is the proper aim for healing. Ask rather that the Holy Spirit  teach you the right perception of the body, for perception alone
Tx:8.98  of guilt and, believing that punishment is inevitable, attempts to  teach himself to like it. The truth is, very simply, that no one
Tx:9.5  are undone. How is this different from telling you that what you  teach you learn? Your brother is as right as you are, and if you
Tx:9.8  have made. Give it to Him! You do not know how to use it. He will  teach you how to see yourself without condemnation by learning how to
Tx:9.21  is an advantage to bringing nightmares into awareness, but only to  teach that they are not real and that anything they contain is
Tx:9.22  If they are theologians, they are likely to condemn themselves,  teach condemnation, and advocate a very fearful solution. Projecting
Tx:9.25  is not working correctively. He believes that it is up to him to  teach the patient what is real, but he does not know it himself.
Tx:9.33  brothers are part of you, will you accept them? Only they can  teach you what you are, and your learning is the result of what you
Tx:9.35  gratitude and their appreciation of what you have given them will  teach you its value. They will become the witnesses to your
Tx:10.21  nothing that will obscure it enter. The Guest whom God sent you will  teach you how to do this if you but recognize the little spark and
Tx:10.56  and those who are convinced by it must be deluded. Can the ego  teach truly when it overlooks truth? Can it perceive what it has
Tx:10.65  of God surrounds His Son, whom the god of the crucifixion condemns.  Teach not that I died in vain. Teach rather that I did not die by
Tx:10.65  the god of the crucifixion condemns. Teach not that I died in vain.  Teach rather that I did not die by demonstrating that I live in
Tx:10.90  Yet you can learn the truth of yourself of the Holy Spirit, who will  teach you that, as part of God, deceit in you is impossible. When
Tx:11.11  supply the loss, the basic cause of fear is removed. Thereby you  teach yourself that fear does not exist in you, for you have in
Tx:11.24  meant: If you had no investment in anything in this world, you could  teach the poor where their treasure is. The poor are merely those
Tx:11.38  pattern you need. The ego will therefore distort love and  teach you that love calls forth the responses which the ego can
Tx:11.38  teach you that love calls forth the responses which the ego can  teach. Follow its teaching, then, and you will search for love but
Tx:11.40  because that is His mission. As He fulfills His mission, He will  teach you yours, for your mission is the same as His. By guiding
Tx:11.48  the meaning of love, and that is your handicap. Do not attempt to  teach yourselves what you do not understand, and do not try to set up
Tx:11.53 The ego is trying to  teach you how to gain the whole world and lose your own Soul. The
Tx:11.54  that you do not know yourselves and perfectly aware of how to  teach you what you are. Because He loves you, He will gladly teach
Tx:11.54  to teach you what you are. Because He loves you, He will gladly  teach you what He loves, for He wills to share it. Remembering you
Tx:12.57  him. And so it is that he can call unto himself the witnesses that  teach him that he never slept.
Tx:12.75  the peace of mind that we must find together. The Holy Spirit will  teach you to awaken unto us and to yourself. This is the only real
Tx:13.15  that he thinks that he has done this unto you. Would you, then,  teach him that he is right in his delusion? The idea that the
Tx:13.26  healing, but He also knows of creation. He would have you see and  teach as He does, and through Him. Yet what He knows, you do not
Tx:13.27 Now it is given you to heal and  teach, to make what will be now. As yet it is not now. The Son of
Tx:13.42  Him Whose Will is peace. You have it now. The Holy Spirit will  teach you how to use it and, by projecting it, to learn that it is
Tx:13.43  be possible to exempt yourself from what the Holy Spirit wills to  teach you. Salvation is as sure as God. His certainty suffices. Learn
Tx:13.51  of their undoing is in him. There is nothing in the world to  teach him that the logic of the world is totally insane and leads to
Tx:13.52  knows to be true, you have denied yourself, and He must therefore  teach you not to deny it. Undoing is indirect, as doing is. You
Tx:13.54  that you are miserable and not happy. The Holy Spirit cannot  teach without this contrast, for you believe that misery is
Tx:13.57  that all this is not true. To these unhappy learners who would  teach themselves nothing and delude themselves into believing that it
Tx:13.60 When you  teach anyone that truth is true, you learn it with him. And so you
Tx:13.70  God is the happy lesson the Holy Spirit teaches and would have you  teach with Him. It is His joy to teach it, as it will be yours.
Tx:13.70  teaches and would have you teach with Him. It is His joy to  teach it, as it will be yours.
Tx:13.71 The way to  teach this simple lesson is merely this: guiltlessness is
Tx:13.71  Therefore, make your invulnerability manifest to everyone, and  teach him that whatever he may try to do to you, your perfect
Tx:13.71  can hurt you, and by refusing to allow him to think he can, you  teach him that the Atonement, which you have accepted for yourself,
Tx:13.72 God is the only Cause, and guilt is not of Him.  Teach no one he has hurt you, for if you do, you teach yourself that
Tx:13.72  is not of Him. Teach no one he has hurt you, for if you do, you  teach yourself that what is not of God has power over you. The
Tx:13.77 The One Who knows the plan of God which God would have you follow can  teach you what it is. Only His wisdom is capable of guiding you
Tx:13.80  Holy Spirit makes for you? Learn of His wisdom and His love and  teach His answer to everyone who struggles in the dark. For you
Tx:13.85 Then let Him  teach you quietly how to perceive your guiltlessness, which is
Tx:13.91  speaks for God and for your function as He knows it. So will He  teach you to remove the awful burden you have laid upon yourself by
Tx:13.91  have laid upon yourself by loving not the Son of God and trying to  teach him guilt instead of love. Give up this frantic and insane
Tx:14.3  teaches you the true condition of the Son of God. It does not  teach you what you are or what your Father is. The Holy Spirit, Who
Tx:14.6  all the love you share with God He holds in trust for you. He would  teach you nothing except how to be happy.
Tx:14.11  as this. You will not see yourself beyond the power of God if you  teach only this. You will not be exempt from the effects of this most
Tx:14.13 Blessed are you who  teach with me. Our power comes not of us but of our Father. In
Tx:14.13  knows us guiltless. I stand within the circle, calling you to peace.  Teach peace with me and stand with me on holy ground. Remember for
Tx:14.13  Father's power that He has given him. Believe not that you cannot  teach His perfect peace. Stand not outside but join with me within.
Tx:14.20  which you made in place of the power of creation, He would  teach you how to use on your behalf. You who made it to crucify
Tx:14.23  attack your sentinels. But bring them to Him, and let His gentleness  teach you that in the light they are not fearful and cannot serve
Tx:14.56  a brother is senseless. Let the Holy Spirit show him to you and  teach you both his love and need for love. Neither his mind nor
Tx:14.57  give it because of what you are. Long ago we said this course will  teach you what you are, restoring to you your identity. We have
Tx:14.60  Nothing you have ever learned can help you understand the present or  teach you how to undo the past. Your past is what you have taught
Tx:14.66 By this refusal to attempt to  teach yourself what you do not know, the Guide Whom God has given you
Tx:14.69  He has not already lightened for you. The lessons you would  teach yourselves He has corrected already. They do not exist in His
Tx:14.70 He Who has freed you from the past would  teach you are free of it. He would but have you accept His
Tx:14.71  the miracle of oneness, and before His lesson division disappears.  Teach like Him here, and you will remember that you have always
Tx:15.12  He asks no more, for He has no need of more. It takes far longer to  teach you how to be willing to give Him this than for Him to use this
Tx:15.17  time into eternity. Blessed is God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to  teach God's holy Son his holiness. His joy is not contained in time.
Tx:15.31  is because I learned for you that you can learn of me. I would but  teach you what is yours, so that together we can replace the shabby
Tx:15.75  His voice your own need to communicate. The Holy Spirit cannot  teach through fear. And how can He communicate with you while you
Tx:15.76  in guilt and danger in communication. For the ego will always  teach that loneliness is solved by guilt and that communication is
Tx:15.79  perceives as clearly as He knows forgiveness is release, He will  teach you to remember that forgiveness is not loss but your
Tx:15.83  The Holy Spirit asks you to respond as God does, for He would  teach you what you do not understand. God would respond to every
Tx:15.84  it is the Will of God. And let Him Whose teaching is only of God  teach you the only meaning of relationships. For God created the
Tx:15.91  your thoughts will be as free as God's. As you let the Holy Spirit  teach you how to use the body only for purposes of communication
Tx:15.92  into the world. Yet you know not how to do it. Let the Holy Spirit  teach you, and let me celebrate your birth through Him. The only
Tx:15.108 The lesson I was born to  teach and still would teach to all my brothers is that sacrifice is
Tx:15.108 The lesson I was born to teach and still would  teach to all my brothers is that sacrifice is nowhere and love is
Tx:16.1  very different.] He does not understand suffering and would have you  teach it is not understandable. When He relates through you, He
Tx:16.6  The unredeemed cannot redeem, yet they have a Redeemer. Attempt to  teach Him not. You are the learner; He the Teacher. Do not confuse
Tx:16.7  Spirit recognizes foolish needs as well as real ones. And He will  teach you how to meet both without losing either.
Tx:16.17  and attack is power. Should not this be a sufficient miracle to  teach you that your Teacher is not of you? But remember also that
Tx:16.23  that you do not regard yourself as one? For it is impossible to  teach successfully wholly without conviction, and it is equally
Tx:16.24  You have taught what you are but have not let what you are  teach you. You have been very careful to avoid the obvious and not
Tx:16.27  with teaching. You have chosen this by your own willingness to  teach. Though you seemed to suffer for it, the joy of teaching will
Tx:16.73  it in the special relationship, which binds you to it and would  teach you that salvation is past and that you must return to the
Tx:16.75  lays the holy instant. We said before that the Holy Spirit must  teach through comparisons and uses opposites to point to truth. The
Tx:17.5  belief in them. But to give illusions to truth is to enable truth to  teach that the illusions are unreal and thus enable you to escape
Tx:17.15  shadow figures which would make the ego holy in your sight and  teach you what you do to keep it safe is really love.
Tx:18.28 Each instant that we spend together will  teach you that this goal is possible and will strengthen your desire
Tx:18.66  achieved their instants of success. This course does not attempt to  teach more than they learned in time, but it does aim at saving
Tx:19.30  is One Who knows it is unbroken and forever changeless. This One can  teach you how to look on time differently and see beyond it, but
Tx:19.57  you my body, you whom I love, knowing its littleness? Or would I  teach that bodies cannot keep us apart? Mine was no greater value
Tx:19.83  the power to release from corruption. What better way to  teach the first and fundamental principle in a course on miracles
Tx:19.89  me not see it as a sign of sin and death nor use it for destruction.  Teach me how not to make of it an obstacle to peace but let You use
Tx:21.34  for sin with them. The Holy Spirit sees perception as a means to  teach you that the vision of a holy relationship is all you want to
Tx:21.41 The Holy Spirit will never  teach you that you are sinful. Errors He will correct, but this makes
Tx:21.64  and from his Father forever and without a hope of safe return. You  teach him this, and you will learn of him exactly what you taught.
Tx:21.64  and you will learn of him exactly what you taught. For you can  teach him only that he is as you would have him, and what you choose
Tx:21.85  To bodies, yes! The thoughts that seem to kill are those which  teach the thinker that he can be killed. And so he dies because
Tx:22.4 Think what a holy relationship can  teach! Here is belief in differences undone. Here is the faith in
Tx:22.12 Think what is given you, my holy brothers. This child will  teach you what you do not understand and make it plain. For his will
Tx:22.63  necessary that you have other experiences more in line with truth to  teach you what is natural and true.
Tx:22.65  you regret you cannot fear alone when your relationship can also  teach the power of love is there, which makes all fear impossible? Do
Tx:22.65  the ego. Let truth decide if you be different or the same and  teach you which is true.
Tx:23.11  and what is kept apart. The war against yourself was undertaken to  teach the Son of God that he is not himself and not his Father's Son.
Tx:23.43  a little, love a little, and know the difference. Thus it would  teach a little of the same can still be different, and yet the same
Tx:24.69 This course makes no attempt to  teach what cannot easily be learned. Its scope does not exceed your
Tx:25.9  it is one and so experienced. It is the Holy Spirit's function to  teach you how this oneness is experienced, what you must do that
Tx:26.22  has set. It will not go beyond this aim. Its only purpose is to  teach what is the same and what is different, leaving room to make
Tx:26.39  along a road long since a memory of time gone by? [This course will  teach you only what is now.] A dreadful instant in a distant past,
Tx:27.16  And everything you say or do or think but testifies to what you  teach to him.
Tx:27.17 Your body can be means to  teach that it has never suffered pain because of him. And in its
Tx:27.77  and avoid the things that would be hurtful. Above all, it tries to  teach itself its pains and joys are different and can be told apart.
Tx:27.79  one purpose, taught in many ways. This single lesson does it try to  teach again, and still again, and yet once more that it is cause
Tx:27.87  and of pain. The form affects His answer not at all, for He would  teach you but the single cause of all of them, no matter what their
Tx:27.89  like the rest. He sees no differences where none exist, and He will  teach you how each one is caused. None has a different cause from all
Tx:28.26  to be victim or effect of what it made. Yet half the lesson will not  teach the whole. The miracle is useless if you learn but that the
Tx:28.26  the body can be healed, for this is not the lesson it was sent to  teach. The lesson is the mind was sick that thought the body could
Tx:29.16  Yet here on earth it has a double purpose, for it can be made to  teach opposing things. And they reflect the teacher who is teaching
Tx:31.3  you cannot learn them. For your power to learn is strong enough to  teach you that your will is not your own, your thoughts do not belong
Tx:31.5  sought to demonstrate, and you have learned what it was made to  teach. Now does your ancient overlearning stand implacable before the
Tx:31.5  ancient overlearning stand implacable before the Voice of truth and  teach you that Its lessons are not true, too hard to learn, too
Tx:31.40  choose the better to deceive yourself again. This course attempts to  teach no more than that the power of decision cannot lie in choosing
Tx:31.40  utterly opposed to truth is this, when the lesson's purpose is to  teach that what your brother loses you have lost and what he gains
Tx:31.44  your reality as Son of God. The concept of the self the world would  teach is not the thing that it appears to be. For it is made to serve
Tx:31.47  innocence there is a lesson that the concept of the self was made to  teach. It is a lesson in a terrible displacement and a fear so
Tx:31.50  to be given you. Nor can it be unlearned except by lessons aimed to  teach that you are something else. For otherwise you would be asked
Tx:31.59 The world can  teach no images of you unless you want to learn them. There will
Tx:31.82  whom He asks release? And what but this is what this course would  teach? And what but this is there for you to learn?
Tx:31.83 Temptation has one lesson it would  teach in all its forms wherever it occurs. It would persuade the holy
W1:12.2  a measured, even tempo throughout. What you see does not matter. You  teach yourself this as you give whatever your glance rests on equal
W1:37.3 Your holiness is the salvation of the world. It lets you  teach the world that it is one with you, not by preaching to it, not
W1:39.3  give what you do not have. A savior must be saved. How else can he  teach salvation? Today's exercises will apply to you alone,
W1:54.6  to replace loss. I would look upon the real world, and let it  teach me that my will and the Will of God are one.
W1:56.2  God has kept my inheritance safe for me. My own real thoughts will  teach me what it is.
W1:90.5  so that they cannot be separated by time. The Holy Spirit will  teach me this if I will let Him. And I will understand it is
W1:95.17  of darkness from the world and let the light in you come through to  teach the world the truth about itself. You are One Self, in perfect
W1:99.14 Then turn to Him who shares your function here, and let Him  teach you what you need to learn to lay all fear aside and know your
W1:101.5 You need the practice periods today. The exercises  teach sin is not real, and all that you believe must come from sin
W1:103.3 This basic error we will try again to bring to truth today and  teach ourselves:
W1:106.12  of God is kept through your receiving it to give away, so you can  teach the world what giving means by listening and learning it of
W1:108.13 Our very simple lesson for today will  teach you much. Effect and cause will be far better understood from
W1:121.7 Each unforgiving mind presents you with an opportunity to  teach your own how to forgive itself. Each one awaits release from
W1:121.7  your forgiveness that it has been saved from hell. And as you  teach salvation, you will learn.
W1:127.4 No course whose purpose is to  teach you what you really are could fail to emphasize there is no
W1:127.8  loving gentleness, He will abide with you as you allow His Voice to  teach love's meaning to your clean and open mind. And He will bless
W1:132.7 There is no world! This is the central thought the course attempts to  teach. Not everyone is ready to accept it, and each one must go as
W1:132.8  and recognize. Some see it suddenly on point of death and rise to  teach it. Others find it in experience that is not of this world,
W1:134.13  for the world cannot perceive its meaning nor provide a guide to  teach you its beneficence. There is no thought in all the world which
W1:134.15  Who understands the meaning of forgiveness and was sent to us to  teach it. Let us ask of Him:
W1:137.9  by which the Holy Spirit urges you to follow Him. His gentle lessons  teach how easily salvation can be yours, how little practice you need
W1:138.5  accepted, it is known. But knowledge is beyond the goals we seek to  teach within the framework of this course. Ours are teaching goals to
W1:139.9  know that they are part of you and you of them. This does Atonement  teach and demonstrates the oneness of God's Son is unassailed by his
W1:151.10  to you who are beloved of God, for He will judge all happenings and  teach the single lesson which they all contain.
W1:151.15  begins as all your thoughts are purified. So are you taught to  teach the Son of God the holy lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail
W1:153.11  come to realize His Will is but their own. And while you fail to  teach what you have learned, salvation waits and darkness holds the
W1:153.12  and Who would replace their fearful toys with joyous games which  teach them that the game of fear is gone. His game instructs in
W1:157.9  transcends all vision, even this, the holiest. This you will never  teach, for you attained it not through learning. Yet the vision

W1:166.13  you have learned of Christ there is another way for them to walk.  Teach them by showing them the happiness that comes to those who feel
W1:R5.7  that this course was sent to open up the path of light to us, and  teach us, step by step, how to return to the eternal Self we thought
W1:R5.10  Together we devote our time and effort to them. And together we will  teach them to our brothers. God would not have Heaven incomplete. It
W1:184.5  direction for the mind to channel its perception. It is hard to  teach the mind a thousand alien names and thousands more. Yet you
W1:184.7  question its effects. Learning which stops with what the world would  teach stops short of meaning. In its proper place, it serves but as a
W1:193.4  joy fulfills His function now. He redirects each lesson you would  teach in hate to one in which forgiveness enters, and returns the
W1:196.3 Thus do you also  teach your mind that you are not an ego. For the ways in which the
W1:198.5  to yourself to hear His Voice and learn the simple lessons He would  teach, instead of trying to dismiss His words and substitute your own
W1:R6.11  I offer this review for you. I place you in His charge and let Him  teach you what to do and say and think each time you turn to Him. He
W1:R6.11  day by day, advancing toward the goal He set for us, allowing Him to  teach us how to go, and trusting Him completely for the way each
W2:296.2 We  teach today what we would learn and that alone. And so our learning
W2:330.1  we attack our minds and give them images of pain? Why should we  teach them they are powerless when God holds out His power and His

M:1.3 There is a course for every  teacher of God. The form of the course varies greatly. So do the

M:2.5 When pupil and  teacher come together, a teaching-learning situation begins. For the
M:2.5  teacher come together, a teaching-learning situation begins. For the  teacher is not really the one who does the teaching. God's Teacher
M:2.5  For the teacher is not really the one who does the teaching. God's  Teacher speaks to any two who join together for learning purposes.

M:2.5  of God himself, for he has made the one decision that gave his  teacher to him. He has seen in another person the same interests as
M:3.1  can look upon the Son of God as sinless. There is no one from whom a  teacher of God cannot learn, so there is no one whom he cannot teach.

M:4.6 Next, the  teacher of God must go through a “period of sorting-out.” This is
M:4.7  Therefore, the period of overlap is apt to be one in which the  teacher of God feels called upon to sacrifice his own best interests
M:4.8  comes a “period of settling down.” This is a quiet time in which the  teacher of God rests a while in reasonable peace. Now he consolidates
M:4.8  what he has learned. Its potential is literally staggering, and the  teacher of God is now at the point in his progress at which he sees
M:4.8  what you do.” How simple is the obvious! And how easy to do! The  teacher of God needs this period of respite. He has not yet come as
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 what was
M:4.12  and self-deception is dishonesty. There is no challenge to a  teacher of God. Challenge implies doubt, and the trust on which God's
M:4.13  implies a lack of trust, and trust remains the bed-rock of the  teacher of God's whole thought system. Let this be lost, and all his
M:4.13  who stands apart? Judgment destroys honesty and shatters trust. No  teacher of God can judge and hope to learn.

M:4.17  the fiercer and more powerful its defenses seem to be. Yet when the  teacher of God finally agrees to look past them, he finds nothing was
M:4.18 The term generosity has special meaning to the  teacher of God. It is not the usual meaning of the word; in fact, it
M:4.19 The  teacher of God is generous out of self-interest. This does not refer,
M:4.19  This does not refer, however, to the self the world speaks of. The  teacher of God does not want anything he cannot give away because he
M:4.20  afford to wait, and wait without anxiety. Patience is natural to the  teacher of God. All he sees is certain outcome, at a time perhaps
M:4.20  to happen. Perhaps it was not understood at the time. Even so, the  teacher of God is willing to reconsider all his past decisions if
M:4.21 The extent of the  teacher of God's faithfulness is the measure of his advancement in
M:4.21  and his trust not yet firmly established. Faithfulness is the  teacher of God's trust in the word of God to set all things right—

M:5.9  another choice which they had forgotten. The simple presence of a  teacher of God is a reminder. His thoughts ask for the right to
M:6.1  keep the illusions. Truth demonstrates illusions have no value. The  teacher of God has seen the correction of his errors in the mind of
M:6.2  of God's gifts. Not one is lost, for they can but increase. No  teacher of God should feel disappointed if he has offered healing and
M:6.4  Yet is its fullness guaranteed by God. What concern, then, can a  teacher of God have about what becomes of his gifts? Given by God to
M:7.1  as we have already said it is, what is there to repeat? For a  teacher of God to remain concerned about the result of healing is to
M:7.1  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 is this
M:7.2 Whenever a  teacher of God has tried to be a channel for healing, he has
M:7.2  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 reason
M:7.3 It is in this that the  teacher of God must trust. This is what is really meant by the
M:7.3  of the miracle worker is to accept the Atonement for himself. The  teacher of God is a miracle worker because he gives the gifts he has
M:7.3  That was a mistake, but hardly one to stay with. And so the  teacher of God can only recognize it for what it is and let it be
M:7.5  doubt about the outcome of any problem that has been given to God's  Teacher for resolution is always self-doubt. And that necessarily

M:9.1  in his attitudes would not be the first step in the newly-made  teacher of God's training. There is however no set pattern, since
M:9.2 As the  teacher of God advances in his training, he learns one lesson with
M:9.2  thoroughness. He does not make his own decisions; he asks his  Teacher for His answer, and it is this he follows as his guide for
M:9.2  as his guide for action. This becomes easier and easier as the  teacher of God learns to give up his own judgment. The giving up of
M:10.1  taught. At any time, the student may disagree with what his would-be  teacher says about them, and the teacher himself is inconsistent in
M:10.1  may disagree with what his would-be teacher says about them, and the  teacher himself is inconsistent in what he believes.
M:10.2  does not mean anything. No more does “bad.” It is necessary for the  teacher of God to realize not that he should not judge, but that he
M:10.5  down beneath it. And it was all illusion. Nothing more. Now can the  teacher of God rise up unburdened and walk lightly on. Yet it is not
M:10.6  judgment. But it is difficult indeed to try to keep it. The  teacher of God lays it down happily the instant he recognizes its
M:10.6  were but the effects of his mistaken choice, have fallen from him.  Teacher of God, this step will bring you peace. Can it be difficult
M:12.1 The answer to this question is “one.” One wholly perfect  teacher whose learning is complete suffices. This One, sanctified and
M:12.4  From this understanding will come the recognition in this new  teacher of God of what the body's purpose really is; the only use
M:12.5  decisions which are responsible for the body's condition. Yet the  teacher of God does not make this decision alone. To do that would be

M:13.8  Teacher of God, do not forget the meaning of sacrifice, and remember
M:14.3  all of them. The illusion of orders of difficulty is an obstacle the  teacher of God must learn to pass by and leave behind. One sin
M:14.3  learn to pass by and leave behind. One sin perfectly forgiven by one  teacher of God can make salvation complete. Can you understand this?

Tx:6.59 A wise teacher  teaches through approach, not avoidance. He does not emphasize
Tx:6.76  it is up to you to decide which voice is true, but the Holy Spirit  teaches you that truth was created by God, and your decision

Tx:6.87  you can be as vigilant against the ego as for it. This lesson  teaches not only that you can be, but that you must be. It does
Tx:6.87  cut priority for vigilance. This step is unequivocal in that it  teaches there must be no exceptions, although it does not deny that
Tx:6.94  and thereby teaches healing. This establishes you as a teacher who  teaches like me. Vigilance was required of me as much as of you, but
Tx:7.17  the Holy Spirit is a lesson in remembering. We said before that He  teaches remembering and forgetting, but the forgetting aspect is only
Tx:7.22  Therefore, it does not really learn at all. The Holy Spirit  teaches you to use what the ego has made to teach the opposite of
Tx:7.24  connection, because the ego is discontinuous. Yet the Holy Spirit  teaches one lesson and applies it to all individuals in all
Tx:7.24  results. By teaching the power of the Kingdom of God Himself, He  teaches you that all power is yours. Its application does not
Tx:7.26  experiencing yourself as unreal. This is why the ego is insane; it  teaches that you are not what you are. This is so contradictory
Tx:7.77  worthy to teach another. One Teacher is in all your minds, and He  teaches the same lesson to all. He always teaches you the inestimable
Tx:7.77  in all your minds, and He teaches the same lesson to all. He always  teaches you the inestimable worth of every Son of God, teaching it
Tx:8.6  other, even if the other does not exist. Their conflicted curriculum  teaches them all directions exist and gives them no rationale for
Tx:8.9  a teacher such as this? Does the total disregard of anything it  teaches make anything but sense? Is this the teacher to whom a
Tx:8.10  God who coerces you because He shares His Will with you. His Voice  teaches only His Will, but that is not the Holy Spirit's lesson
Tx:8.12 We said before that the Holy Spirit  teaches you the difference between pain and joy. That is the same as
Tx:8.12  difference between pain and joy. That is the same as saying that He  teaches you the difference between imprisonment and freedom. You

Tx:8.23  ego teaches that your strength is in you alone. The Holy Spirit  teaches that all strength is in God and therefore in you. God
Tx:8.69  ego, the body is to attack with. Equating you with the body, it  teaches that you are to attack with, because this is what it

Tx:9.35  but you can learn how to awaken. Very simply the Holy Spirit  teaches you to awaken others. As you see them waken, you will learn
Tx:9.77  God which he has forgotten. Your recognition of him as part of God  teaches him the truth about himself, which he is denying. Would you
Tx:10.17  which you accept, either from your brother or in your own mind,  teaches you that you are God's Son. In every hurtful thought you

Tx:11.37  ego undertakes is therefore bound to be defeated. And since it also  teaches that it is your identification, its guidance leads you to a
Tx:11.53  how to gain the whole world and lose your own Soul. The Holy Spirit  teaches that you cannot lose your Soul and there is no gain in
Tx:11.88  condemned. The Atonement is the final lesson he need learn, for it  teaches him that, never having sinned, he has no need of salvation.
Tx:11.97 Accepting the Atonement  teaches you what immortality is, for by accepting your
Tx:11.99 The ego  teaches you to attack yourself because you are guilty, and this
Tx:12.23  world is healing, and your function in Heaven is creating. The ego  teaches that your function on earth is destruction and that you have
Tx:12.29  the encounter holy, is excluded from your sight. The Holy Spirit  teaches that you always meet yourself and the encounter is holy
Tx:12.29  meet yourself and the encounter is holy because you are. The ego  teaches that you always encounter your past, and because your dreams
Tx:13.1  from the past. That is why the Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He  teaches that the past does not exist, a fact which belongs to the
Tx:13.26  has always done so. He has seen separation, but knows of union. He  teaches healing, but He also knows of creation. He would have you see
Tx:13.45  cannot fail to undo for you everything you have learned that  teaches you what is not true must be reconciled with truth. This is
Tx:13.47  away from them and follow the simple logic by which the Holy Spirit  teaches you the simple conclusions that speak for truth and only
Tx:13.57  golden crowns because of them. All this the Holy Spirit sees and  teaches simply that all this is not true. To these unhappy learners
Tx:13.59  learners of the lesson which this light brings to them because it  teaches them release from nothing and from all the works of
Tx:13.69 The miracle  teaches you that you have chosen guiltlessness, freedom, and joy. It
Tx:13.70  has no power over the Son of God is the happy lesson the Holy Spirit  teaches and would have you teach with Him. It is His joy to teach
Tx:13.79  no one in this world or Heaven could possibly commit. God's Spirit  teaches only that the “sin” of self-replacement on the throne of God
Tx:14.3  mind which has denied it and thus denied Heaven to itself. Atonement  teaches you the true condition of the Son of God. It does not teach
Tx:14.3  your Father is. The Holy Spirit, Who remembers this for you, merely  teaches you how to remove the blocks that stand between you and what
Tx:14.6  to share is always the same—God's Son is guiltless. Each one  teaches the message differently and learns it differently. Yet until
Tx:14.6  the message differently and learns it differently. Yet until he  teaches it and learns it, he will suffer the pain of dim awareness
Tx:14.31  cannot see alone. Sharing perception with Him Whom God has given you  teaches you how to recognize what you see. It is the recognition
Tx:14.50  at all for ordering your thoughts. This lesson the Holy Spirit  teaches by giving you shining examples to show you that your way of
Tx:14.60 Atonement  teaches you how to escape forever from everything that you have
Tx:14.62  not closed to take. Every dark lesson that you bring to Him Who  teaches light He will accept from you because you do not want it. And
Tx:14.63  will for God's Son what His Father wills for him. Every dark lesson  teaches this in one form or another. And each bright lesson, with
Tx:14.63  Holy Spirit will replace the dark ones you do not accept and hide,  teaches you that you will with the Father unto His Son.
Tx:14.71  Listen in silence, and do not raise your voice against Him. For He  teaches the miracle of oneness, and before His lesson division
Tx:15.4 The ego  teaches that hell is in the future, for this is what all its
Tx:15.5  aims together so that they seem to be reconciled. The ego  teaches thus: Death is the end as far as hope of Heaven goes. Yet
Tx:15.6 The ego  teaches that Heaven is here and now because the future is hell.
Tx:15.8 The Holy Spirit  teaches thus: There is no hell. Hell is only what the ego has made
Tx:15.47  than others? The past has taught you this. Yet the holy instant  teaches you it is not so.
Tx:16.27  shares it with him. As you learn, your gratitude to your Self, Who  teaches you what He is, will grow and help you honor Him. And you
Tx:16.77  be exactly as he was created. And everything the Holy Spirit  teaches you is to remind you that you have received what God has
Tx:19.72  relationship which it keeps hidden and yet feeds upon. To you it  teaches that the body's pleasure is happiness. Yet to itself it

Tx:6.44  you must have. It awakens in you through the conviction of  teaching. Remember that, if teaching is being and learning is being,

Tx:9.71 When you attack, you are denying yourself. You are specifically  teaching yourself that you are not what you are. Your denial of
Tx:10.50  the impossible and the false from the true. According to the ego's  teaching, its goal can be accomplished, and God's purpose can

Tx:11.46  Yet creation is not of you, and poor learners need special  teaching. You have learning handicaps in a very literal sense.
Tx:11.49  The result of this curriculum goal is obvious. Every legitimate  teaching aid, every real instruction, and every sensible guide to

Tx:11.75  why the undoing of guilt is an essential part of the Holy Spirit's  teaching. For as long as you feel guilty, you are listening to the
Tx:11.89  teachers, whose ultimate aim is to make themselves unnecessary by  teaching their pupils all they know. The Holy Spirit wills only
Tx:11.99  the guilt, for guilt is the result of attack. In the ego's  teaching, then, there is no escape from guilt. For attack makes

Tx:13.40  need of contrast only here. Contrast and differences are necessary  teaching aids, for by them you learn what to avoid and what to seek.
Tx:13.53 The Holy Spirit, therefore, must begin His  teaching by showing you what you can never learn. His message is
Tx:13.56  are elsewhere, begins His lesson in simplicity with the fundamental  teaching that truth is true. This is the hardest lesson you will

Tx:14.9  learn need teaching, not attack. To attack those who have need of  teaching is to fail to learn from them.
Tx:14.10  from guilt to the eternal glory of God and His creation. And every  teaching that points to this points straight to Heaven and to the
Tx:14.10  and to the peace of God. There is no pain, no trial, no fear that  teaching this can fail to overcome. The power of God Himself supports
Tx:14.10  this can fail to overcome. The power of God Himself supports this  teaching and guarantees its limitless results.
Tx:14.11  cannot fail and must result in peace. No one can be untouched by  teaching such as this. You will not see yourself beyond the power of
Tx:14.13  but join with me within. Fail not the only purpose to which my  teaching calls you. Restore to God His Son as He created him by
Tx:14.13  my teaching calls you. Restore to God His Son as He created him by  teaching him his innocence.
Tx:14.70  what He has made in place of you. He would establish His bright  teaching so firmly in your mind that no dark lessons of guilt can
Tx:15.1  that and nothing more. God's Teacher cannot be satisfied with His  teaching until it constitutes all your learning. He has not
Tx:15.1  until it constitutes all your learning. He has not fulfilled His  teaching function until you have become such a consistent learner
Tx:15.2  that this takes time, and that the results of the Holy Spirit's  teaching are far in the future. This is not so. For the Holy Spirit
Tx:15.2  time in His own way and is not bound by it. [Time is His friend in  teaching. It does not waste Him as it does you.] And all the waste
Tx:15.2  time to convince you of the inevitability of the goal and end of  teaching. To the ego the goal is death, which is its end. But to
Tx:15.4  ego teaches that hell is in the future, for this is what all its  teaching is directed to. Hell is its goal, for although the ego
Tx:15.4  craves for you, leaves it unsatisfied. No one who follows the ego's  teaching is without the fear of death. Yet if death were thought of
Tx:15.8  from fear in the ego's use of time. For time, according to its  teaching, is nothing but a teaching device for compounding guilt
Tx:15.8  use of time. For time, according to its teaching, is nothing but a  teaching device for compounding guilt until it becomes
Tx:15.10  what you are. Begin to practice the Holy Spirit's use of time as a  teaching aid to happiness and peace. Take this very instant, now,
Tx:15.17  God's holy Son his holiness. His joy is not contained in time. His  teaching is for you because His joy is yours. Through Him you stand
Tx:15.45 The holy instant is the Holy Spirit's most useful learning device for  teaching you love's meaning. For its purpose is to suspend judgment
Tx:15.48  the ego, as a learning experience which points to truth. Under His  teaching, every relationship becomes a lesson in love.
Tx:15.56  a relationship and find peace within it. Under the Holy Spirit's  teaching, all relationships are seen as total commitments, yet they
Tx:15.77  as surely as damnation lies in guilt. It is the Holy Spirit's  teaching function to instruct those who believe that communication is
Tx:15.79  Teacher until the holy instant has extended far beyond time. For a  teaching assignment such as His, He must use everything in this world
Tx:15.84  must be possible because it is the Will of God. And let Him Whose  teaching is only of God teach you the only meaning of
Tx:15.107  The Prince of Peace was born to reestablish the condition of love by  teaching that communication remains unbroken, even if the body is

Tx:16.21  and yet you have not learned how to accept the comfort of your  teaching. If you will consider what you have taught and how alien it

Tx:16.25 Your  teaching has already done this, for the Holy Spirit is part of you.
Tx:16.25  and gratitude to you for their creation they offer gladly to your  teaching of yourself, who is their home. You who are host to God are
Tx:16.26  off in the universe, yet not beyond yourself, the witnesses to your  teaching have gathered to help you learn. Their gratitude has joined
Tx:16.26  taught. For what you taught is true. Alone you stand outside your  teaching and apart from it. But with them you must learn that you
Tx:16.27 This year you will begin to learn and make learning commensurate with  teaching. You have chosen this by your own willingness to teach.
Tx:16.27  willingness to teach. Though you seemed to suffer for it, the joy of  teaching will yet be yours. For the joy of teaching is in the
Tx:16.27  suffer for it, the joy of teaching will yet be yours. For the joy of  teaching is in the learner, who offers it to the teacher in
Tx:17.7  this for you until you learn to see it for yourself. And all His  teaching leads to seeing it and giving thanks with Him.
Tx:17.44  transformed and seen anew. The holy relationship is a phenomenal  teaching accomplishment. In all its aspects, as it begins, develops,
Tx:18.41  meaning. The holy instant, your holy relationship, the Holy Spirit's  teaching, and all the means by which salvation is accomplished would
Tx:19.67  what I have not done. So will you learn the freedom that I taught by  teaching freedom to each other and so releasing me. I am within your
Tx:20.65  taught yourself; vision is learned from Him Who would undo your  teaching. His vision cannot see the body because it cannot look on
Tx:26.30  to those who do not understand that miracles are all the same. Yet  teaching that is what this course is for. This is its only purpose,
Tx:29.16  made to teach opposing things. And they reflect the teacher who is  teaching them. The body can appear to change with time, with
Tx:31.39  impossible to learn. But only then. For otherwise, it is a simple  teaching in the obvious.
Tx:31.50  which the world directs begun and ended with the single aim of  teaching you this concept of yourself, that you will choose to follow

W1:95.9 The Holy Spirit is not delayed in His  teaching by your mistakes. He can be held back only by your

W1:50.3  all seeming difficulties without effort and in sure confidence.  Tell yourself this often today. It is a declaration of release from
W1:53.6  made. Whatever I see reflects my thoughts. It is my thoughts which  tell me where I am and what I am. The fact that I see a world in
W1:65.8  before, but do not strain or make undue effort in doing this. Then  tell yourself:
W1:68.9  nothing can harm you in any way. At the end of the practice period  tell yourself:
W1:69.11 Also, be sure to  tell yourself:
W1:70.10  which you sought to make real. Recognize that it was not there.  Tell yourself:
W1:71.12 Give Him full charge of the rest of the practice period, and let Him  tell you what needs to be done by you in His plan for your salvation.

W1:76.12  listened and understood there are no laws but God's. Then we will  tell ourselves as a dedication with which the practice period

W1:128.8  an image of the world, refuse to lay this chain upon your mind and  tell yourself with quiet certainty:

Tx:28.55  is indeed a senseless point of view to hold responsible for sight a  thing that cannot see and blame it for the sounds you do not like,
Tx:28.56 The  thing you hate and fear and loathe and want, the body does not

Tx:29.15  the promise of the living God—His Son have life and every living  thing be part of him, and nothing else have life. What you have
Tx:29.17 Sickness is a demand the body be a  thing that it is not. Its nothingness is guarantee that it can not

Tx:29.60  you could not lose it, did He also give the same to every living  thing as well. And thus is every living thing a part of you, as of
Tx:29.60  the same to every living thing as well. And thus is every living  thing a part of you, as of Himself. No idol can establish you as

Tx:30.48  God holds of you exist but where you are? Is your reality a  thing apart from you and in a world which your reality knows nothing

Tx:30.56  the Son of God can have no need of them. They offer him no single  thing that he could ever want. He is delivered from illusions by his

Tx:31.9 There is no living  thing which does not share the universal will that it be whole and
Tx:31.26  a choice that will result in different outcomes, there is first one  thing that must be overlearned. It must become a habit of response so

Tx:31.48  with ceaseless urgency condemning still your brother for the hated  thing you are.
Tx:31.54 There are alternatives about the  thing that you must be. You might for instance be the thing you chose
Tx:31.54  about the thing that you must be. You might for instance be the  thing you chose to have your brother be. This shifts the concept of
Tx:31.60 I do not know the  thing I am and therefore do not know what I am doing, where I am, or
Tx:31.79  And from that wish, a concept rises, teaching that you are the  thing you wish to be. It will remain your concept of yourself until
Tx:31.81  that it is but a wish, insane and meaningless, to make yourself a  thing which you are not. And think as well upon the thing that you

W1:139.4  as if he did not know, it merely shows he does not want to be the  thing he is. He has accepted it because he lives, has judged against

W2:240.1  be and therefore look upon a world which is impossible. Not one  thing in this world is true. It does not matter what the form in
W2:290.1  day I seek my present happiness and look on nothing else except the  thing I seek.

C:10.13  right now, today. To believe in God without understanding God is one  thing. To believe in your union with your neighbor without
C:10.20  itself despite its unhappiness and say, “I did the right  thing.” It will see itself as victor over the foolish dreams of

C:11.10  At other times you think that this was but God's curse on you, a  thing to tempt you to the life of desperation that you live. But your

C:12.20  the separation, there was no such thing—and there still is no such  thing except as an extension of the original idea. Just as we

C:18.7  it was created to fulfill. But when perception changes and a  thing is seen as what it is, then it cannot fail to accomplish what
C:20.3  eyes and the “I” of your ego. You are loosed of bounds, no longer a  thing of beauty, but beauty itself.
C:20.17  we seek to return you to. This realization that the world is not a  thing, as you are not a thing. Your identity is shared and one in
C:20.17  to. This realization that the world is not a thing, as you are not a  thing. Your identity is shared and one in Christ. A shared identity
C:20.19  with you? And is the you who shed such tears a personal being? A  thing? A mass of flesh and bone? Or are you, like the world you cry
C:21.2  from particulars. I repeat that relationship exists between one  thing and another and that it is in the intersection of parts that
C:21.3  feel, you need no judgment to tell you the difference between one  thing and another. You thus can begin to quit relying on your body's
C:21.8  moral conflict, an example being the individual knowing the “right”  thing to do but acting instead on what is the accepted thing to do
C:21.8  the “right” thing to do but acting instead on what is the accepted  thing to do within his or her community. In such an instance the

C:22.2  While we have previously discussed relationship as not being one  thing or the other but a third something, we have not as yet
C:25.10  grace, then all action will be in harmony. If you believe one living  thing is more important than any other, then all action will be out
C:27.7  between the human and the divine. Life is not a matter of one living  thing versus another, but of the relationship between all living
C:27.19 How often have you known the “right”  thing to do without knowing the details of what came before and what

T2:1.3  to say that the feelings that cause one to think that any physical  thing is capable of being a treasure or being treasured are of the
T2:1.10  “forms” are the product of the separation. Unity is not a place or a  thing but the realm of the one heart and one mind; the realm of the
T2:4.2  you are at the mercy of fate. Fate and creation are hardly the same  thing. You are at the mercy only of your own ego and only until you
T2:4.17  recognize it not as such. It is not a process of waiting until one  thing is accomplished for another to begin. What is happening now is
T2:7.11 The only  thing that will prevent this is your ability to go out into the world
T2:7.14  the same as saying you are a being who needs relationship. The only  thing that keeps you, in this new pattern, from being needy and
T2:9.14 There is no such  thing as a static level in unity where creation is continuous and
T2:11.4  ego is the one untruth, given many names and many faces and the only  thing given by you the power to do battle with the truth, or with
T2:11.13  contingent upon relationship for its existence, is this not the same  thing as saying that you are a being who exists in relationship? Is
T2:12.5  in miracles and your belief in atonement or correction are the same  thing. While you believe there is anything other than your own
T2:12.9  As we spoke within A Course of Love of relationship being not one  thing or another but a third something, this is what we speak of here
T3:2.11  Self and God. Give up your desire to think that if you did such a  thing there was a reason for you to have done so. How many times have

T3:21.9  facts are subject to change and mean one thing to one person and one  thing to another. Illusion is symbolic. And what's more it symbolizes
T3:22.5  that a specific role is required of you, or that you have a specific  thing to do of which you need to be aware, are functions of the
T3:22.12  thought that this creative tension would not necessarily be a good  thing to give up. You do not know how to reach beyond what was for
T4:1.15  so that you are left with no confusion and only certainty. The only  thing that will dispel this confusion and bring you the certainty
T4:7.5  exists in the state or reality in which you think you are. The only  thing that has created an unreal reality for your heart and body has

D:Day4.50  which you arrive at acceptance, nor to focus on acceptance of one  thing over another. You are not to label good or bad. Just to accept.
D:Day5.18 Realize here that while you want to know the specifics of how this  thing called access to unity will work, you are also impatient with
D:Day8.11 This acceptance is the only  thing that will truly prevent judgment, for it does not require you
D:Day8.19  that were spoken of earlier. This temptation stems from one  thing only—from not living in the present. Distancing, or

Tx:12.68  is a dangerous concept if it is left to you. The ego wants to have  things for salvation, for possession is its law. Possession for its

Tx:19.96  and you will nevermore believe that you are at the mercy of  things beyond you, forces you cannot control, and thoughts that come
Tx:20.5  upon the body or to cover it or for its use. See all the useless  things made for its eyes to see. Think on the many offerings made for
Tx:20.28  this world sees them—sickness and death and misery and pain. These  things have not occurred because the Holy Spirit sees them not and

Tx:20.73  play the idle game of death in your imagination. But vision sets all  things right, bringing them gently within the kindly sway of Heaven's
Tx:21.20  salvation. All that the ego is, is an idea that it is possible that  things should happen to the Son of God without his will and thus
Tx:21.49  laws of size and shape and brightness would hold, perhaps, if other  things were equal. They are not equal. For what you look for, you

Tx:21.76  are all the same. We said this year would emphasize the sameness of  things that are the same. This final question, which is indeed the
Tx:22.10  makes and what he hears are highly unreliable, meaning different  things to him at different times. Neither the sounds he hears nor
Tx:23.27  not give willingly to one another, nor would they seek to share the  things they value. And what your enemies would keep from you must be
Tx:24.46  them, holding out His hand that everyone may bless all living  things and see their holiness. And He rejoices that these sights are
Tx:24.46  lack of specialness He offers you that you may save all living  things from death, receiving from each one the gift of life that your
Tx:25.10  so split could never be the teacher of a Oneness which unites all  things within itself. And so What is within this mind and does
Tx:25.10  itself. And so What is within this mind and does unite all  things together must be its Teacher. Yet must It use the language
Tx:26.24  and to make them different. [How simple is the choice between two  things so clearly unalike.] There is no conflict here. No
Tx:26.56  What can remain unhealed and broken from a Unity Which holds all  things within Itself? There is no sin. And every miracle is
Tx:27.18 Thus does the miracle undo all  things the world attests can never be undone. And hopelessness and
Tx:27.36 In quietness are all  things answered and is every problem quietly resolved. In conflict

Tx:27.77  is its guiding rule. It tries to look for pleasure and avoid the  things that would be hurtful. Above all, it tries to teach itself its
Tx:27.78  body seeks in many ways to prove it is autonomous and real. It puts  things on itself which it has bought with little metal discs or paper
Tx:27.78  as valuable and good. It works to get them, doing senseless  things, and tosses them away for senseless things it does not need
Tx:27.78  get them, doing senseless things, and tosses them away for senseless  things it does not need and does not even want. It hires other
Tx:27.78  other bodies, that they may protect it, and collect more senseless  things that it can call its own. It looks about for special bodies
Tx:27.83  confined within a body, which it punishes because of all the sinful  things the body does within its dream. You have no power to make the
Tx:28.2  take the place of what God gave in your creation. And like all the  things you made, it can be used to serve another purpose and to be
Tx:28.3  unselective memory, which is not used to interfere with truth. All  things the Holy Spirit can employ for healing have been given Him,
Tx:28.25  neutral, and the bodies which still seem to move about as separate  things need not be feared. And so they are not sick.
Tx:28.30  coming with illusions, for it is His coming that you want above all  things that seem to glisten in the dream.
Tx:29.16  earth it has a double purpose, for it can be made to teach opposing  things. And they reflect the teacher who is teaching them. The body
Tx:29.21  him, without the wall the world has built to keep apart all living  things who know not that they live. Within the dream of bodies and of
Tx:29.39  The stars will disappear, and night and day will be no more. All  things that come and go, the tides, the seasons, and the lives of
Tx:29.39  that come and go, the tides, the seasons, and the lives of men; all  things that change with time and bloom and fade will not return.
Tx:29.39  will not change him. Yet time waits upon forgiveness that the  things of time may disappear because they have no use.
Tx:29.57  the changeless change, the peace of God, forever given to all living  things, give way to chaos, and the Son of God, as perfect, sinless
Tx:29.58  has no place to be. An idol is beyond where God has set all  things forever and has left no room for anything to be except His
Tx:29.66  a child, who does not know what hurts and what will heal. And bad  things seem to happen, and he is afraid of all the chaos in a world
Tx:29.67  what it sees. No one is used for something he is not, for childish  things have all been put away. And what was once a dream of judgment
Tx:30.7  again the kind of day you want, the feelings you would have, the  things you want to happen to you, and the things you would experience
Tx:30.7  you would have, the things you want to happen to you, and the  things you would experience and say,
Tx:30.31  before it can occur. It is but this agreement which permits all  things to happen. Nothing can be caused without some form of union,

Tx:30.53  no real effects at all? What could it be but an illusion, making  things appear like to itself? Look calmly at its toys and understand

Tx:30.55  are but asked to let your will be done and seek no longer for the  things you do not want. And you are asked to let yourself be free of
Tx:30.57  into the dream of fear. Instead, there is a wish to understand all  things created as they really are. And it is recognized that all
Tx:30.57  all things created as they really are. And it is recognized that all  things must be first forgiven, and then understood.
Tx:30.58  by its vain appeal, for suffering and death have been perceived as  things not wanted and not striven for. The possibility of freedom has

Tx:31.2 There is a reason. But confuse it not with difficulty in the simple  things salvation asks you learn. It teaches but the very obvious. It
Tx:31.4  the Son of God is guilty, say not that you cannot learn the simple  things salvation teaches you!
Tx:31.12 Let us be still an instant and forget all  things we ever learned, all thoughts we had, and every preconception
Tx:31.12  all thoughts we had, and every preconception which we hold of what  things mean and what their purpose is. Let us remember not our own
Tx:31.22  without your opposition or intent. There will be no attack upon the  things you thought were precious and in need of care. There will be
Tx:31.45  aspect never makes the first attack. But every day a hundred little  things make small assaults upon its innocence, provoking it to
Tx:31.48  You can be neither blamed for what you are, nor can you change the  things it makes you do. And you are each the symbol of your sins to
Tx:31.51  have made the world as well as you to have such prescience in the  things to come.
Tx:31.57  you perceive a self which interacts with evil and reacts to wicked  things? Your concept of yourself will still remain quite meaningless.
Tx:31.63  choose to see the body, you behold a world of separation, unrelated  things, and happenings that make no sense at all. This one appears
Tx:31.74  silent barricade before the truth, and hides it from your sight. All  things you see are images because you look on them as through a
W1:I.4  as possible. Be sure that you do not decide that there are some  things you see to which the idea for the day is inapplicable. The aim
W1:1.5  in any order, and make no allowance for differences in the kinds of  things to which they are applied. That is the purpose of the
W1:2.1  this idea are the same as those for the first one. Begin with the  things that are near you, and apply the idea to whatever your glance
W1:3.1  in judgment. Anything is suitable if you see it. Some of the  things you see may have emotionally-charged meaning for you. Try to
W1:3.1  for you. Try to lay such feelings aside, and merely use these  things exactly as you would anything else.
W1:3.2  is to help you clear your mind of all past associations, to see  things exactly as they appear to you now, and to realize how little
W1:3.2  keep a perfectly open mind, unhampered by judgment, in selecting the  things to which the idea for the day is to be applied. For this
W1:4.4 This thought about _____ does not mean anything. It is like the  things I see in this room [or wherever you are].
W1:7.5  why your thoughts do not mean anything and why they are like the  things you see.
W1:9.5 Begin with  things that are nearest you, and then extend the range:
W1:10.2  instead of “These thoughts” and no link is made overtly with the  things around you. The emphasis is now on the lack of reality of what
W1:14.7  your personal repertory of horrors at which you are looking. These  things are part of the world you see. Some of them are shared
W1:15.7  you will obviously not be able to apply the idea to very many  things during the minute or so of practice that is recommended, try
W1:17.1  cause and effect as it really operates. You see no neutral  things because you have no neutral thoughts. It is always the thought
W1:17.3 I see no neutral  things because I have no neutral thoughts.
W1:28.2  by itself? And what does “in itself” mean? You see a lot of separate  things about you, which really means you are not seeing at all. You
W1:28.2  or not. When you have seen one thing differently, you will see all  things differently. The light you will see in any one of them is the
W1:29.3 Try then today to begin to learn how to look on all  things with love, appreciation, and open-mindedness. You do not see
W1:30.4  “far.” To help you begin to get used to this idea, try to think of  things beyond your present range as well as those you can actually
W1:35.10  nothing specific occurs to you. Do not strain to think up specific  things to fill the interval, but merely relax and repeat today's idea
W1:37.3  but merely by your quiet recognition that in your holiness are all  things blessed, along with you.
W1:38.2  you are holy, so is everything God created. You are holy because all  things He created are holy. And all things He created are holy

W1:41.6  thoughts of the world. You are trying to reach past all these  things. You are trying to leave appearances and approach reality.
W1:47.2 Of yourself, you can do none of these  things. To believe that you can is to put your trust where trust is
W1:47.6  gain confidence. But the strength of God in you is successful in all  things.
W1:47.8  feel a sense of deep peace, however briefly. Let go all the trivial  things that churn and bubble on the surface of your mind, and reach
W1:50.1  forms of nothingness which you endow with magical powers. All these  things are your replacements for the Love of God. All these things
W1:50.1  these things are your replacements for the Love of God. All these  things are cherished to ensure a body identification. They are songs
W1:51.6  “my” thoughts. I am constantly trying to make them true. I make all  things my “enemies” so that my anger is justified and my attacks are
W1:54.3 [17] I see no neutral  things. What I see witnesses to what I think. If I did not think, I
W1:55.2 [21] I am determined to see  things differently. What I see now are but signs of disease,
W1:55.2  what God created for His beloved Son. The very fact that I see such  things is proof that I do not understand God. Therefore I also do not
W1:57.6  had kept hidden. I begin to understand the holiness of all living  things including myself, and their oneness with me.
W1:58.6  to all good and only good. I am blessed as a Son of God. All good  things are mine because God intended them for me. I cannot suffer any
W1:58.6  who I am. My Father supports me, protects me, and directs me in all  things. His care for me is infinite and is with me forever. I am
W1:60.3  I begin to see, I recognize His reflection on earth. I forgive all  things because I feel the stirring of His strength in me. And I begin
W1:70.11 My salvation cannot come from any of these  things. My salvation comes from me, and only from me.

W1:72.3  attack on God's plan for salvation. But let us consider the kinds of  things which you are apt to hold grievances for. Are they not always
W1:76.1 We have observed before how many senseless  things have seemed to you to be salvation. Each has imprisoned you
W1:76.1  realize salvation lies not there. While you would seek for it in  things that have no meaning, you bind yourself to laws that make no
W1:76.4 It is insanity that thinks these  things. You call them laws and put them under different names in a
W1:83.5 [66] My happiness and my function are one. All  things that come from God are one. They come from Oneness and must be
W1:86.2  about for salvation. I have seen it in many people and in many  things, but when I reached for it, it was not there. I was mistaken
W1:87.2  my will to grope about in darkness, fearful of shadows and afraid of  things unseen and unreal. Light shall be my guide today. I will

W1:96.15  all things created by the Spirit as Itself. Your mind will bless all  things. Confusion done, you are restored, for you have found your
W1:99.12 Think of these  things in practicing today, and start your longer practice periods
W1:106.3  Hear them not. Be still today, and listen to the truth. Go past all  things which do not speak of Him Who holds your happiness within His
W1:R3.9  to practice only at appointed times and then go on your way to other  things without applying what you learned to them. As a result, you
W1:R3.11  to rest a little time in silence and in peace. Then turn to other  things, but try to keep the thought with you and let it serve to help
W1:119.3 [108] To give and to receive are one in truth. I will forgive all  things today, that I may learn how to accept the truth in me and come

W1:128.3  what you value you make part of you as you perceive yourself. All  things you seek to make your value greater in your sight limit you
W1:129.2  and pitiless with hate. It gives but to rescind and takes away all  things that you have cherished for a while. No lasting love is found,
W1:129.2  is found, for none is here. This is the world of time, where all  things end.
W1:129.3  cannot exist, and vengeance has no meaning? Is it loss to find all  things you really want and know they have no ending, and they will

W1:132.15  all the idle thoughts we ever held about it and about all living  things we see upon it. They cannot be there—no more than we. For we
W1:133.2  too little. When you let your mind be drawn to bodily concerns, to  things you buy, to eminence as valued by the world, you ask for
W1:133.3  in the world. Today we list the real criteria by which to test all  things you think you want. Unless they meet these sound requirements,
W1:133.8  you have denied your own. You therefore will not recognize the  things you really have, denying they are there. Who seeks to take

W1:164.6  is sacred to the world. Your vision, given you from far beyond all  things within the world, looks back on them in a new light. And what
W1:164.8  own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely letting go all  things you think you want. Your trifling treasures put away and leave
W1:166.1 All  things are given you. God's trust in you is limitless. He knows His
W1:167.6  mind does not exist because it has no source. For mind creates all  things that are and cannot give them attributes it lacks nor change
W1:169.3  shut tight against God's Voice. It has become aware that there are  things it does not know and thus is ready to accept a state
W1:169.5  is simply the idea God is. And in His Being, He encompasses all  things. No mind holds anything but Him. We say “God is,” and then we

W1:184.2  where there is unity—a space between all things, between all  things and you. Thus do you think that you have given life in
W1:184.3  names by which the world becomes a series of discrete events, of  things un-unified, of bodies kept apart and holding bits of mind as
W1:184.3  perception as you wished to have perception be. The nameless  things were given names and thus reality was given them as well. For

W1:184.11  has One Name, One Meaning, and a single Source Which unifies all  things within Itself. Use all the names the world bestows on them but
W1:184.12 God has no name. And yet His Name becomes the final lesson that all  things are one, and at this single lesson learning ends. All names
W1:184.15 Father, our Name is Yours. In It we are united with all living  things and You Who are their One Creator. What we made and call by
W1:185.10  really want and join your own intent with what they seek above all  things, perhaps unknown to them, but sure to you. You have been weak

W1:188.9  that the peace of God still shines in us and from us to all living  things that share our life. We will forgive them all, absolving all
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 them with the

W1:190.6  and keep it as a hospital for pain, a sickly place where living  things must come at last to die?
W1:190.9  without defense into the quiet place where Heaven's peace holds all  things still at last. Lay down all thoughts of danger and of fear.
W1:192.4 Forgiveness gently looks upon all  things unknown in Heaven, sees them disappear, and leaves the world a
W1:193.13 All  things are lessons God would have you learn. He would not leave an

W1:195.4  is joined to love. We offer thanks to God our Father that in us all  things will find their freedom. It will never be that some are loosed
W1:195.8  we forgive without comparing. Thus we cannot choose to overlook some  things and yet retain some other things still locked away as sins.
W1:195.8  we cannot choose to overlook some things and yet retain some other  things still locked away as sins. When your forgiveness is complete,
W1:196.2  at first you will not understand how mercy, limitless and with all  things held in its sure protection, can be found in the idea we
W1:197.8  to you, the holy Son of God, for as you were created you contain all  things within your Self. And you are still as God created you. Nor
W1:213.1 [193] All  things are lessons God would have me learn. A lesson is a miracle
W2:I.10  call His Name. Instead of judging, we need but be still and let all  things be healed. We will accept the way God's plan will end, as we
W2:WF.3 An unforgiving thought does many  things. In frantic action, it pursues its goal, twisting and
W2:232.2  the end of fear. Have faith in Him Who is your Father. Trust all  things to Him. Let Him reveal all things to you, and be you
W2:232.2  Him Who is your Father. Trust all things to Him. Let Him reveal all  things to you, and be you undismayed because you are His Son.
W2:235.1 I need but look upon all  things that seem to hurt me and with perfect certainty assure myself,
W2:WIS.3 Sin is the home of all illusions, which but stand for  things imagined, issuing from thoughts which are untrue. They are the
W2:251.1 I sought for many  things and found despair. Now do I seek but one, for in that one is
W2:252.1  looked upon. Its love is limitless, with an intensity that holds all  things within it in the calm of quiet certainty. Its strength comes
W2:264.1  in the place I see myself, and everywhere I go. You are in all the  things I look upon, the sounds I hear, and every hand that reaches
W2:264.1  stands beyond Your one creation or without the Love Which holds all  things within Itself. Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We come to
W2:268.1  in Love will I remain forever. What can frighten me when I let all  things be exactly as they are?
W2:WIC.4  and peace has come to every Son of God, what could remain to keep  things separate, for what remains to see except Christ's face?
W2:274.1 Father, today I would let all  things be as You created them and give Your Son the honor due his
W2:275.1  and understand. Join me in hearing. For the Voice of God tells us of  things we cannot understand alone, nor learn apart. It is in this
W2:275.1  we cannot understand alone, nor learn apart. It is in this that all  things are protected. And in this the healing of the Voice of God is
W2:275.2 Your healing Voice protects all  things today, and so I leave all things to You. I need be anxious
W2:275.2 Your healing Voice protects all things today, and so I leave all  things to You. I need be anxious over nothing. For Your Voice will
W2:275.2  The safety that I bring is given me. Father, Your Voice protects all  things through me.
W2:278.1 If I accept that I am prisoner within a body in a world in which all  things that seem to live appear to die, then is my Father prisoner
W2:283.2  and everything created part of us. And so we offer blessing to all  things, uniting lovingly with all the world, which our forgiveness
W2:285.1 Today I wake with joy, expecting but the happy  things of God to come to me. I ask but them to come and realize my
W2:285.1  to which they have been sent by me. And I will ask for only joyous  things the instant I accept my holiness. For what would be the use of
W2:286.1 Father, how still today! How quietly do all  things fall in place! This is the day that has been chosen as the
W2:291.1 Christ's vision looks through me today. His sight shows me all  things forgiven and at peace and offers this same vision to the
W2:295.2  of Christ today and thus allow the Holy Spirit's love to bless all  things that I may look upon, that His forgiving love may rest on me.
W2:299.2  its light. It stands forever perfect and untouched. In it are all  things healed, for they remain as You created them. And I can know my
W2:WISC.1  illusion's place, the willingness to let forgiveness rest upon all  things without exception and without reserve.
W2:WISC.2  hold you safe within its gentle advent, which encompasses all living  things with you. There is no end to the release the Second Coming
W2:303.2  is but what I really am in truth. He is the Son You love above all  things. He is my Self as You created me. It is not Christ that can be
W2:313.1 Father, there is a vision which beholds all  things as sinless, so that fear has gone and where it was is love
W2:315.1  I am blessed with gifts throughout the day, in value far beyond all  things of which I can conceive. A brother smiles upon another, and my
W2:320.2 Your Will can do all  things in me and then extend to all the world as well through me.
W2:328.1 What seems to be the second place is first, for all  things we perceive are upside-down until we listen to the Voice of
W2:330.1  today that He be our Identity and thus escape forever from all  things the dream of fear appears to offer us.
W2:337.1  Atonement for myself and nothing more. God has already done all  things that need be done. And I must learn I need do nothing of
W2:338.1  endanger him. He has no enemies, and he is safe from all external  things. His thoughts can frighten him, but since these thoughts
W2:339.1  receive what he requests. But he can be confused indeed about the  things he wants, the state he would attain. What can he then request
W2:342.1  in and be at home. Let me not wait again today. Let me forgive all  things, and let creation be as You would have it be and as it is. Let
W2:343.1  impossible for me as well as You. I too must give, and so all  things are given unto me forever and forever. As I was created, I
W2:346.1 Father, I wake today with miracles correcting my perception of all  things. And so begins the day I share with You as I will share
W2:346.1  share eternity, for time has stepped aside today. I do not seek the  things of time, and so I will not look upon them. What I seek today
W2:346.1  look upon them. What I seek today transcends all laws of time and  things perceived in time. I would forget all things except Your Love.
W2:346.1  all laws of time and things perceived in time. I would forget all  things except Your Love. I would abide in You and know no laws except
W2:346.2  God. For we will learn today what peace is ours when we forget all  things except God's Love.
W2:349.1 So would I liberate all  things I see and give to them the freedom that I seek. For thus do I
W2:350.1  part of us as we perceive ourselves. The Son of God incorporates all  things within himself as You created him. Your memory depends on his
W2:WAI.3  therefore given us. We look on everyone as brothers and perceive all  things as kindly and as good. We do not seek a function that is past
W2:359.1  Your world and let creation be Your own. We have misunderstood all  things. But we have not made sinners of the holy Sons of God. What
W2:E.6  and say “Amen.” In peace we will continue in His way and trust all  things to Him. In confidence we wait His answers, as we ask His Will
M:1.4  with its illusions of change and death, wears out the world and all  things in it. Yet time has an ending, and it is this that the

M:4.5  be perceived unless the perceiver is in a position where he must see  things in a different light? He is not yet at a point at which he can
M:4.6  the changes in his life are always helpful, he must now decide all  things on the basis of whether they increase the helpfulness or
M:4.6  helpfulness or hamper it. He will find that many if not most of the  things he valued before will merely hinder his ability to transfer
M:4.6  loss and sacrifice. It takes great learning to understand that all  things, events, encounters, and circumstances are helpful. It is only
M:4.12  impossible. Therefore they can only succeed. In this, as in all  things, they are honest. They can only succeed because they never do
M:4.12  will alone. They choose for all mankind, for all the world and all  things in it, for the unchanging and unchangeable beyond appearances,
M:4.13  this be lost, and all his learning goes. Without judgment are all  things equally acceptable, for who could judge otherwise? Without
M:4.16  gifts and follow in His way because God's Voice directs them in all  things. Joy is their song of thanks. And Christ looks down on them in
M:4.19  he ensure himself pain? But he does want to keep for himself all  things that are of God and therefore for His Son. These are the
M:4.19  all things that are of God and therefore for His Son. These are the  things that belong to him. These he can give away in true generosity,
M:4.20  to those who trust. Sure of the ultimate interpretation of all  things in time, no outcome already seen or yet to come can cause them
M:4.21  is the teacher of God's trust in the word of God to set all  things right—not some but all. Generally, his faithfulness begins
M:4.24 How do the open-minded forgive? They have let go all  things that would prevent forgiveness. They have in truth abandoned
M:4.24  now which seemed so dull and lifeless before. And above all are all  things welcoming, for threat is gone. No clouds remain to hide the
M:4.25  that the list of attributes of God's teachers does not include those  things which are the Son of God's inheritance. Terms like love,
M:10.3  one would have to be fully aware of an inconceivably wide range of  things, past, present, and to come. One would have to recognize in
M:10.6  of death—all these have come of it. And now he knows that these  things need not be. Not one is true. For he has given up their cause,
M:11.1  peace seems to be impossible. Yet the Word of God promises other  things that seem impossible, as well as this. His Word has promised
M:11.2  or the Word of God is more likely to be true. For they say different  things about the world, and things so opposite that it is pointless
M:11.2  to be true. For they say different things about the world, and  things so opposite that it is pointless to try to reconcile them. God
M:13.1  altogether meaningless, it does have meaning in the world. Like all  things in the world, its meaning is temporary and will ultimately
M:13.1  system can take hold, is that it is a sacrifice to give up the  things of this world. What could this be but an illusion, since this
M:13.2  fame, money, physical pleasure—who is the hero to whom all these  things belong? Could they mean anything except to a body? Yet a body
M:13.2  except to a body? Yet a body cannot evaluate. By seeking after such  things, the mind associates itself with the body, obscuring its
M:13.3  identity, and no one doubts what he believes he is. He can doubt all  things but never this.
M:13.6  really hold dear. In one sense that is true, for you hold dear the  things that crucify God's Son. And it is the course's aim to set him
M:14.2  to Him in silence to receive His Word. The world will end when all  things in it have been rightly judged by His judgment. The world will
M:15.1  judgment that will set him free. This is the judgment in which all  things are freed with him. Time pauses as eternity comes near, and
M:16.6  of peace, a thought of limitless release—limitless because all  things are freed within it. You think you made a place of safety for
M:16.6  You think you made a power that can save you from all the fearful  things you see in dreams. It is not so. Your safety lies not there.
M:16.8  particularly during the time when his mind is occupied with external  things? He can but try, and his success depends on his conviction
M:21.2  process. The prayer of the heart does not really ask for concrete  things. It always requests some kind of experience, the specific
M:21.2  things. It always requests some kind of experience, the specific  things asked for being the bringers of the desired experience in the

M:26.2  gifts to the teachers of God who look to them for help, asking all  things in their name and in no other.
M:27.1  It is the one fixed, unchangeable belief of the world that all  things in it are born only to die. This is regarded as “the way of

M:27.4 The curious belief that there is part of dying  things that may go on apart from what will die does not proclaim a
M:27.6  magic, ineffectual and meaningless. God is, and in Him all created  things must be eternal. Do you not see that otherwise He has an

C:11.2 You think your source and your Creator are two separate  things, and too seldom remember even that you are not your own

C:25.18  matters. You will wonder why you are unconcerned about many of the  things you have been concerned about previously. Your life may
C:25.19  and should be accepted as such. You will learn that while some  things you have done and will continue to do may not matter, they may
C:25.19  be done with patience, grace, and love. You will learn that other  things you have done, beliefs you have held, patterns and habits that
C:25.22  necessarily reflect real need but rather an impatience with the way  things are and were. You will want to force change rather than wait

C:29.14  while you look at life in terms of schedules, plans, time-tables, or  things to get done. No wholeness will be possible for you while you
C:31.19  as a learning device to help you remember who you are. Those  things about which you feel guilt and shame are simply the remnants
C:31.20 Who you are is love, and all  things brought to love are seen in a new light, a light that keeps
T1:2.2  you to leave behind within the pages of A Course of Love. These many  things which seemed so distinct and separate and which ranged from
T1:2.16  that experience it speaks to your survival needs. It may signal many  things ranging from a desire to get safely home before it is dark, to

T2:4.12  what you feel called to do. This is not about the past and all those  things that at one time or another you thought would bring you
T2:7.2  waiting to happen, love that is not returned, the withholding of  things you deem important. This fear that you feel in relation to
T2:7.10  idea of the desire for change. Certainly there will continue to be  things within your life that are in need of change. As was stated in
T2:11.12 Separate  things must still exist in relationship. This is the key to
T3:1.7  which you have been called. These changes, perhaps, seem like little  things—a change in attitude here, a change in behavior there. But I
T3:4.8  Love has accomplished. Now the choice is before you to do one of two  things: to proceed toward love or fear. If you proceed with fear you
T3:5.3  or addiction, depression, or even physical exhaustion. All these  things you have brought to yourself for they have been the only way
T3:5.5  have already tried to learn. This Course has come so that these many  things that you have tried need not be repeated, just as the
T3:7.6  many doors to the same house and but thought them to offer different  things, only to find that the house you entered was still the same
T3:8.1  Kingdom of God. I remind you, once again, that what you have called  things are but representations too and that we move now beyond
T3:9.3  no new learning at all. You will be tempted, at first, to see  things that are like unto those within the house of illusion and call
T3:11.2  larger, an all-encompassing recognition of the unity of all  things with which the Self coexists in truth and peace and love.
T3:13.2  in regards to extremes of the human experience, saying that these  things that draw you from the peace of God draw you from the state in
T3:13.4  temptations we are beginning to lay out. Because you have made these  things that would but seem to tempt you, you have believed in them
T3:13.13  is the action of giving birth. Realize that you believe in many  things that did not originate with yourself. But it is not until you
T3:14.2  the thought system of the truth, you will begin to believe in such  things as benevolence and abundance. What this means is that you will
T3:14.7  disrespect. It is only by your choice that you will keep these  things and only by your choice that these things will leave you.
T3:14.7  that you will keep these things and only by your choice that these  things will leave you.
T3:14.10 If there are  things that you, at this point, still hold to yourself and call
T3:15.2  beginnings of all kinds within the human experience are ideas that  things cannot be different than they once were. The only true
T3:17.2  this beginning of making distinctions between the self and all other  things in creation that existed with the self. This is why the story
T3:17.2  every day to understanding the unity and interconnectedness of all  things.
T3:17.8  as the truth is the truth and illusion is illusion; just as these  things are what they are without judgment; so is the beginning the
T3:18.10  shared by all. This is the relationship of the truth that unites all  things and that must now become observable.
T3:19.2 —no joy felt by the physical form alone—the joy that comes of  things physical can certainly still be experienced and expressed.
T3:19.4  from lust and greed, hate and fear, vengeance and retribution. These  things have always had as their cause the thought system of the ego
T3:20.14  and let not the suffering of the world call you from it. When these  things of the world threaten to call you from your peace, you must
T3:21.11  of this as being certain of facts and information, for these are the  things about yourself that few of you have doubted. Those who have
T3:21.11  your family and the accumulated experiences of your lifetime are the  things upon which you draw to feel the certainty you feel about your
T3:21.11  white or Indian. Your personal self may be deeply affected by these  things you call yourself or may be minimally affected.
T3:21.12 And even more so than these  things, although this hasn't as often been considered as part of what
T3:21.12  changeable, are unmistakably claimed to be your own in the way few  things, in addition to your name and family of origin ever are. Even
T3:21.13  fall within the parameters of your belief system. You think of these  things as part of what make up the totality of who you are, of your
T3:21.16 All of these  things have contributed to your idea that you are a separate being
T3:21.17  system has changed and you believe that you exist in unity, all the  things we have enumerated above will act to challenge these beliefs
T3:21.18 Thus, certain  things about your personal self must be accepted as aspects of your
T3:22.10  You have needed to become bored with what has been, tired of the way  things were, uninterested in matters of a personal nature. This very
T4:2.32 All of these  things are possible. But true vision is seeing relationship and
T4:3.2  has to do with the divine pattern, the unity that binds all living  things. Observation is the means of seeing this binding pattern in
T4:3.4 Original intent has everything to do with the nature of  things for original intent is synonymous with cause. The original
T4:3.6  tests of time. Thus did the world become a world of effort with all  things in it and beyond it, including God, weighed and balanced
T4:7.3  The understanding of the unity that creates and sustains all living  things will now be as close to the surface of consciousness as was,
T4:8.7  to breathe, to speak, to walk, much as a baby learns to do these  things, and that these things were loving acts within a loving
T4:8.7  to walk, much as a baby learns to do these things, and that these  things were loving acts within a loving universe, a love-filled

T4:10.6 The outcome of learning or what is studied is the production of  things and perceived meaning.
T4:10.7 What we work toward now is to advance from learning and producing  things and perceived meaning, to producing unity and relationship
T4:10.8  one, cause and effect the same. Thus this applied learning produced  things and perceived meaning.
T4:12.6  surprises. Laugh and be joyous. You no longer have a need to figure  things out. Surprises cannot be figured out! They are meant to be
D:1.26 Learning accepts that there are those separate from you who know  things that you know not. This is not the case. When you fully accept
D:2.1 You are now asked to do two  things simultaneously: To accept the new and to deny the old.
D:3.19  once newly birthed even though my Self was eternal. One of the major  things we will be seeing as we proceed is the difference between form
D:5.2 These distortions occurred as you assigned meaning or “truth” to  things, truly believing in your ability to do so. You thus determined
D:5.7  body and its acts as representative of truth. You have thought the  things you do represent your drives, but they simply represent what
D:6.6  for everything that exists in form is of the same Source. Even those  things you have made you have not made from nothing. There is not one
D:6.8 What is not real are the  things that you have made to represent what is real since you didn't
D:6.8  what is real since you didn't understand what it was you were making  things to represent. These are the systems we have already spoken of:
D:7.9  for content, and need not be maligned. The content of all living  things is the energy of the spirit of wholeheartedness. The content
D:7.9  energy of the spirit of wholeheartedness. The content of all living  things is, in other words, whole. By seeing only aspects of wholeness
D:8.2  said or been told you have a natural talent or ability to do. These  things some of you have practiced or studied to take advantage of
D:9.7 As we continue, you may feel as if contradictory  things are being said, such as being called to consider what
D:13.8  of the time of Christ, and you will begin to see the evidence that  things are different now. Join with others who are coming to know
D:Day3.3  quit resisting most of this learning and “accepted” it as the way  things are. This kind of acceptance is what we are reversing with a
D:Day3.14  and so you would rather not even attempt an understanding of how  things might be different. As far as you have come, these ideas are
D:Day3.26 Do not feel dejected that you have not learned these  things. They were learned, to the degree that you could learn them
D:Day3.33  think that money spent on the more lasting pleasures such as the  things described above is the secret.
D:Day3.59  reality of lack. You cannot accept that in the reality of unity all  things come to you without effort or striving except money. You
D:Day4.6  You might begin to think of all the “givens” of unity as those  things that require no thinking.
D:Day4.9  of an externalized system. That you all attempt to learn the same  things, and in coming to identify the world in the same way—the way
D:Day4.9  cause of the insanity of the world and of your anger with the way  things “are” within the world. This is an anger that stems from lack
D:Day4.9  anger that stems from lack of choice. When you are “taught” the “way  things are,” where is the room for choice? Where is the room for
D:Day4.10  taught what life is all about, not to relearn or be taught the “way  things are” but to discover what life is all about and to discover
D:Day4.10  to discover what life is all about and to discover the way to remake  things as they are.
D:Day4.15  ideas that were not gained through effort. We have spoken of these  things to begin to familiarize you with the “given” world as opposed
D:Day4.46  no return to judgment. It means no longer trying to leave these  things behind for they will be gone. It will mean no longer striving.
D:Day4.50  alongside accepting me, your Self, and abundance. But none of these  things are meant to be dwelt upon. The acceptance of abundance no
D:Day4.52  of you, or because you still feel like bargaining with God. These  things are only reactions to faulty perceptions, only the steps
D:Day4.57  your becoming is your enlightenment realized without judgment. These  things become not achievements, but the acknowledgments of the

D:Day5.26  So we will continue our work now in releasing you from those  things that would still block your full awareness.
D:Day6.6 How might these  things be linked to the example of creating art? I choose this
D:Day8.8  to effect change comes from acceptance—not acceptance of the way  things are, but acceptance of who you are in the present. Not through
D:Day8.8  way you want to be but of the way you are now. There will be many  things within your life that will take some time to change, but many
D:Day8.8  to practice acceptance of the present, that there will be far fewer  things you do not like, and that you will be shown, in the
D:Day9.28  these learning practices were the product of false images of the way  things—and you—should be! Can you not see the extreme urgency of
D:Day10.26  This is why we have recently spoken of anger and of those  things which you dislike—why we have spoken, in short, of the
D:Day10.35  of the issues facing your time in order to speak to you of such  things, I am aware of them. So is every other living thing because
D:Day10.38  Jesus, to speak of feelings without addressing the grand scheme of  things. I want to comfort and reassure you in this final message. I

Tx:9.74  change your reality? No one can will to destroy himself. When you  think you are attacking yourself, it is a sure sign that you hate
Tx:9.78  are willing to keep it hidden and to protect this idol, which you  think will save you from the dangers which the idol itself stands
Tx:9.81  them and serve them, because you believe that they made you. You  think they are your father because you are projecting onto them the
Tx:9.85  worship him in whatever form he may appear to you and wherever you  think you see him, he will disappear into the nothingness out of
Tx:9.96  of God's Son against His Will. The “attack on God” made His Son  think he was fatherless, and out of his depression, he made the god
Tx:9.99  He does not retaliate, but He does call to you to return. When you  think He has not answered your call, you have not answered His.
Tx:10.20  but only because your care is a sign that you want Him.  Think like Him ever so slightly, and the little spark becomes a
Tx:10.75  for you, He will restore what you have thrown away. As long as you  think you know its meaning, you will see no need to ask it of Him.
Tx:10.80  that you are afraid of His specificity for fear of what you  think it will demand of you. Yet only by asking will you learn that
Tx:11.25 Suppose a brother insists on having you do something you  think you do not want to do. The very fact of his insistence should
Tx:11.31 You are at odds with the world as you perceive it because you  think it is antagonistic to you. This is a necessary consequence
Tx:11.66  you will find them, but you will recognize neither. For you will  think they are the same because you want them both. The mind always
Tx:11.68 When you  think you are projecting what you do not want, it is still because
Tx:11.70  nor can you really receive anything else from them. If you  think you have received anything else, it is because you have looked
Tx:11.75  been treacherous to God and therefore deserve death. You will  think that death comes from God and not from the ego because, by
Tx:12.10  you look upon your hatred and realize its full extent. You may also  think that it would be easy enough for the Holy Spirit to show it to
Tx:12.13  to the call of love if you heard it, and the whole world you  think you control would vanish. The Holy Spirit, then, seems to be
Tx:12.14 You have built your whole insane belief system because you  think you would be helpless in God's Presence, and you would save
Tx:12.14  Presence, and you would save yourself from His love because you  think it would crush you into nothingness. You are afraid it would
Tx:12.14  that magnitude lies in defiance and that attack is grandeur. You  think you have made a world which God would destroy; and by loving
Tx:12.24  hell and oblivion, and the real Heaven is the greatest threat you  think you could experience. For hell and oblivion are ideas which
Tx:12.69  know and your advice unto yourself will hurt you. For what you  think you need will merely serve to tighten up your world against
Tx:13.5  possible even here. Help Him to give His gift of light to all who  think they wander in the darkness, and let Him gather them into His
Tx:13.13  past, the future will be like it. Whatever you hold as dear, you  think is yours. The power of your valuing will make it so.
Tx:13.34  we shine with brightness so intense that none of us alone can even  think on it. Before the glorious radiance of the Kingdom, guilt melts
Tx:13.52  the task of sharing what cannot be shared. And while you  think it possible to learn to do this, you will not believe all
Tx:13.73  who believe they are guilty will respond to guilt because they  think it is salvation and will not refuse to see it and side with it.
Tx:13.78  God wills for you is your will. Without His guidance, you will  think you know alone and will decide against your peace as surely
Tx:13.83 Whenever you are in doubt what you should do,  think of His Presence in you and tell yourself this and only this:
Tx:13.87  you attain with God beside you. For until you do, you will still  think that you are separate from Him. You can feel His Presence next
Tx:14.15  Come gladly to the holy circle, and look out in peace on all who  think they are outside. Cast no one out, for this is what he seeks,
Tx:14.49  this is true about the thoughts which cross the mind of those who  think they live apart. For some are reflections of Heaven, while
Tx:14.49  Heaven, while others are motivated by the ego, which but seems to  think. The result is a weaving, changing pattern which never rests
Tx:14.63  wholly free of fear of any kind, and if all those who meet or even  think of you share in your perfect peace, then you can be sure that
Tx:14.68  to acknowledge that it is impossible. It is only because you  think that you can run some little part or deal with certain aspects
Tx:14.69 Do you  think that what the Holy Spirit would have you give He would
Tx:14.72  their motivation for learning by thinking they already know.  Think not you understand anything until you pass the test of perfect
Tx:14.73  this, it must be peace they want and nothing else. Whenever you  think you know, peace will depart from you because you have
Tx:14.75  from which they both arise, is yours as surely as it is His. You  think you know Him not only because, alone, it is impossible to know
Tx:15.10  aid to happiness and peace. Take this very instant, now, and  think of it as all there is of time. Nothing can reach you here out
Tx:15.24  remember this: Every decision which you make stems from what you  think you are and represents the value that you put upon
Tx:15.33  to grasp for peace yourself, salvation will be given you. Yet  think not you can substitute your plan for His. Rather, join with me
Tx:15.34  is in him. For where you would help your brother be, there will you  think you are. Hear not his call for hell and littleness, but only
Tx:15.36  it far from you. By so much as you want it will you bring it nearer.  Think not that you can find salvation in your own way and have it.
Tx:15.41  alone. For in private thoughts, known only to yourself, you  think you find a way to keep what you would have alone and share
Tx:15.55  Think you that you can judge the Self of God? God has created it
Tx:15.59  calls on God for love, your call remains as strong. Nor do you  think that, by God's answer to him, your hope of answer is
Tx:15.75  remember this—to be with a body is not communication. And if you  think it is, you will feel guilty about communication and will be
Tx:15.75  you will be abandoned. And yet you do believe it. For you  think that your minds must be kept private or you will lose them,
Tx:15.82  Think but an instant on this: God gave the Sonship to you to ensure
Tx:15.86  impossible to recognize as wholly without gratification what you  think you want. The body is the symbol of the ego, as the ego is
Tx:15.87  ego would limit everyone to a body for its purposes, and while you  think it has a purpose, you will choose to utilize the means by
Tx:15.95  to be host to the ego or hostage to God. This is the choice you  think you have, and the decision which you believe that you must make.
Tx:15.97  you believe that you can give all your guilt away whatever you  think and purchase peace. And the payment does not seem to be
Tx:15.97  that the ego, which you invited, is treacherous only to those who  think they are its host. The ego will never let you perceive this,
Tx:15.98  with the idea of being able to be neither completely. And this you  think saves you from God, Whose total love would completely destroy
Tx:15.99 You  think that everyone outside yourself demands your sacrifice, but
Tx:15.101  would bargain with them for a few special relationships in which you  think you see some scraps of safety. Do not try longer to keep apart
Tx:16.8 You will attempt to do this only in secrecy. And you will  think that, by meeting the needs of one, you do not jeopardize
Tx:16.10 You still  think holiness is difficult because you cannot see how it can be
Tx:16.11  but a way of avoiding or looking away from the whole to what you  think you might be better able to understand. For this is but another
Tx:16.11  understanding to yourself. A better and far more helpful way to  think of miracles is this: You do not understand them, either in part
Tx:16.14 You  think your lack of understanding is a loss to you, and so you are
Tx:16.16  just as you fear, that to acknowledge Him is to deny all that you  think you know. But it was never true. What gain is there to you in
Tx:16.20  and let it work in peace. Have faith in what has faith in you.  Think what you have really seen and heard and recognize it. Can
Tx:16.29 Your bridge is builded stronger than you  think, and your foot is planted firmly on it. Have no fear that the
Tx:16.36  It is essential that we look very closely at exactly what it is you  think you can do to solve the dilemma, which seems very real to you,
Tx:16.52  relationship as a triumph over God, would you want it? Let us not  think of its fearful nature nor of the guilt it must entail nor of
Tx:16.52  in the special relationship. Through the death of your self, you  think you can attack another self and snatch it from the other to
Tx:16.52  the self which you despise. And you despise it because you do not  think it offers the specialness which you demand. And hating it,
Tx:16.53 How can you grant unlimited power to what you  think you have attacked? So fearful has the truth become to you that
Tx:16.53  [and unworthy of value,] you would not dare to look upon it. You  think it safer to endow the little self which you have made with
Tx:16.68  it, it will join with you and become one with you. And you will  think in glad astonishment that for all this you gave up nothing!
Tx:16.71  change the past except in fantasy? And who can give you what you  think the past deprived you of? The past is nothing. Do not seek to
Tx:16.71  you are maintaining the illusion that it has not gone because you  think it serves some purpose that you want fulfilled. And it must
Tx:17.2  wish to change reality that is fearful, because by your wish you  think you have accomplished what you wish. This strange position in
Tx:17.5  Think you that you can bring truth to fantasy and learn what truth
Tx:17.15  return evil for evil, hoping that their witness will enable you to  think guiltily of another and not harm yourself. They speak so
Tx:17.33  without the picture you cannot have. Defenses operate to make you  think you can.
Tx:17.37  picture, you will realize that it was only the frame that made you  think it was a picture. Without the frame, the picture is seen as
Tx:17.51 You are very new in the ways of salvation and  think you have lost your way. Your way is lost, but think not
Tx:17.51  and think you have lost your way. Your way is lost, but  think not this is loss. In your newness, remember that you have
Tx:17.52  joined with many in the holy instant, and they have joined with you.  Think not your choice will leave you comfortless, for God Himself has
Tx:17.55  presence of truth itself. Here is the goal, together with you.  Think you not the goal itself will gladly arrange the means for its
Tx:17.71 Yet  think on this, and learn the cause of faithlessness: You think you
Tx:17.71 Yet think on this, and learn the cause of faithlessness: You  think you hold against the other what he has done to you. But what
Tx:17.78  crucifixion of the Son of God. His faithlessness did this to him.  Think carefully before you let yourself use faithlessness against
Tx:18.6  loss is meaningless and only increase is conceivable. Do you really  think it strange that a world in which everything is backwards and
Tx:18.14 Does not a world that seems quite real arise in dreams? Yet  think what this world is. It is clearly not the world you saw
Tx:18.21  blessing which the Holy Spirit has laid upon it will be extended.  Think not that He has forgotten anyone in the purpose He has given
Tx:18.21  that He has forgotten anyone in the purpose He has given you. And  think not that He has forgotten you to whom He gave the gift. He uses
Tx:18.22  one of dreams to one of truth. You are not sure of this because you  think it may be this that is the dream. You are so used to choosing
Tx:18.26  your fear increases, for there is little doubt that what you  think it means is fearful. Yet what is that to us who travel surely
Tx:18.36  to confuse your role with God's. Atonement cannot come to those who  think that they must first atone, but only to those who offer it
Tx:18.36  for you. Rather than seek to prepare yourself for Him, try to  think thus:
Tx:18.50  a body cannot be guilty, for it can do nothing of itself. You who  think you hate your bodies deceive yourselves. You hate your minds,
Tx:18.71  love was its origin, and it was made to limit the unlimited.  Think not that this is merely allegorical, for it was made to limit
Tx:18.71  identify with externals, something outside itself. You cannot even  think of God without a body or some form you think you recognize.
Tx:18.71  itself. You cannot even think of God without a body or some form you  think you recognize.
Tx:18.73  the sun; this almost imperceptible ripple hails itself as the ocean.  Think how alone and frightened is this little thought, this
Tx:18.77  and deep content to every part. The little aspect which you  think you set apart is no exception.
Tx:18.85 This is the little part of you, you  think you stole from Heaven. Give it back to Heaven. Heaven has not
Tx:18.85  of the Son of God, complete and holy, serene and unaware of what you  think surrounds it. Be you not separate, for the One Who does
Tx:19.8  to it, making it sick because of its identification with it. You  think you are protecting the body by hiding this connection, for this
Tx:19.16  not to interfere with it and make it slave to time. For what you  think you do to the eternal you do to you. Whom God created as His
Tx:19.24  with the ego that it is far better to be sinful than mistaken. Yet  think you carefully before you allow yourself to make this choice.
Tx:19.26 The ego does not  think it possible that love, not fear, is really called upon by sin
Tx:19.26  must be eternal and will be repeated endlessly.] For what you  think is real you want and will not let it go. An error, on the
Tx:19.41 Why would you want peace homeless? What do you  think that it must dispossess to dwell with you? What seems to be the
Tx:19.58 To  think you could be satisfied and happy with so little is to hurt
Tx:19.60 This [is] the value that you  think peace would rob you of. This is what you believe that it would
Tx:19.65  upon each other as you would look on me. Forgive me all the sins you  think the Son of God committed. And in the light of your forgiveness,
Tx:19.66  joyous message of the end of guilt, and all the world will answer.  Think of your happiness as everyone offers you witness of the end of
Tx:19.69  which called them forth and therefore is compatible with them. But  think you which it is that is compatible with you.
Tx:19.70  is free. But all 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
Tx:19.70  and disillusionment and for retaliative attack on what you  think has failed you? Use not your error as the justification for
Tx:19.85  life. And what but insanity could look upon the defeat of God and  think it real?
Tx:19.90 What would you see without the fear of death? What would you feel and  think if death held no attraction for you? Very simply, you would
Tx:19.104  the sins your brother thinks he has committed and all the guilt you  think you see in him.
Tx:19.105  we will return until redemption is accomplished and received.  Think who your brother is before you would condemn him. And offer
Tx:19.109  Think carefully how you would look upon the giver of this gift, for
Tx:20.5  or for its use. See all the useless things made for its eyes to see.  Think on the many offerings made for its pleasure and remember all
Tx:20.10  about a while and laid aside. Listen and hear this carefully, nor  think it but a dream—a careless thought to play with or a toy you
Tx:20.19  and you disappear? You made this up. It is a picture of what you  think you are, of how you see yourself. A murderer is
Tx:20.33  For He Who knows the rest will see to it without your help. But  think not that He does not need your part to help Him with the rest.
Tx:20.34 This is the purpose given you.  Think not that your forgiveness of each other serves but you two
Tx:20.34  to have His laws perfectly fulfilled in them and all their brothers.  Think you when this has been achieved that you will rest without
Tx:20.40  vision that you will merely love him and be glad. You will not  think to judge him, for who would see the face of Christ and yet
Tx:20.60  it. Before we look at them a little closer, remember that if you  think they are impossible, your wanting of the purpose has been
Tx:20.68  is also not of you. Rejoice in what is yours but for the asking and  think not that you need make either means or end. All this is given
Tx:20.70  you laid upon it. What can you value more than this? Why do you  think the body is a better home, a safer shelter for God's Son? Why
Tx:20.77  after vision, who is there who could refuse what must come after?  Think but an instant just on this—you can behold the holiness God
Tx:20.77 —you can behold the holiness God gave His Son. And never need you  think that there is something else for you to see.
Tx:21.6  become accustomed to their world by their adjustments to it. They  think they know their way about in it. They learned it, not through
Tx:21.6  They hate the world they learned through pain. And everything they  think is in it serves to remind them that they are incomplete and
Tx:21.7  define their life and where they live, adjusting to it as they  think they must, afraid to lose the little that they have. And so it
Tx:21.7  the body is to save the little that they have. Listen and try to  think if you remember what we will speak of now.
Tx:21.21  threatens this seems to attack your faith, for here is it invested.  Think not that you are faithless, for your belief and trust in this
Tx:21.26  created not by your Creator has any influence over you. And if you  think what you have made can tell you what you see and feel and place
Tx:21.26  your Creator and believing that you made yourself. For if you  think the world you made has power to make you what it wills, you
Tx:21.35  once served sin are redirected now toward holiness. For what you  think is sin is limitation, and whom you try to limit to the body
Tx:21.37 Those who believe in sin must  think the Holy Spirit asks for sacrifice, for this is how they think
Tx:21.37  think the Holy Spirit asks for sacrifice, for this is how they  think their purpose is accomplished. Brothers, the Holy Spirit
Tx:21.39  Think you the Holy Spirit is concerned with this? He gives not what
Tx:21.39  this? He gives not what it is His purpose to lead you from. You  think He would deprive you for your good. But “good” and
Tx:21.41  fearful. You are indeed afraid to look within and see the sin you  think is there. This you would not be fearful to admit. Fear in
Tx:21.45  the Holy Spirit's purpose, and so there must be something else.  Think not that this is madness. For this your reason tells you,
Tx:21.50  beyond your own control and far more powerful than you. And you will  think the world you made directs your destiny. For this will be your
Tx:21.52  the basic question is obvious, simple, and remains unasked. But  think not reason could not answer it.
Tx:21.59  value them, but their correction. Reason will also tell you when you  think you sin, you call for help. Yet if you will not accept the help
Tx:21.59  to your brother. And if he shares this same belief, you both will  think that you are damned. This you could spare him and yourself.
Tx:21.61 No one can  think but for himself, as God thinks not without His Son. Only were
Tx:21.61  His Son. Only were both in bodies could this be. Nor could one mind  think only for itself unless the body were the mind. For only
Tx:21.63 The body does not separate you from your brother, and if you  think it does, you are insane. But madness has a purpose and believes
Tx:21.63  part be kept away from other parts? Reason would tell you this. But  think what you must recognize if it be so.
Tx:21.64  him, and what you choose he be is but your choice for you. Yet  think not this is fearful. That you are joined to him is but a fact,
Tx:21.83 Why do you  think you are unsure the others have been answered? Could it be
Tx:21.84  as helpless. Desire what you will, and you will look on it and  think it real. No thought but has the power to release or kill. And
Tx:21.89  will is powerful as His, a power that is not lost in your illusions,  think carefully why it should be you have not yet decided how you
Tx:22.2  each to complete himself and rob the other. They stay until they  think there's nothing left to steal and then move on. And so they
Tx:22.4  Think what a holy relationship can teach! Here is belief in
Tx:22.7  For you have listened to what can never communicate at all.  Think, then, what happened. Denying what you are and firm in faith
Tx:22.8  is the one emotion that keeps you blind, dependent on the self you  think you made to lead you through the world it made for you.
Tx:22.12  Think what is given you, my holy brothers. This child will teach you
Tx:22.14  reborn in just an instant. For what is time to what was always so?  Think what that instant brought—the recognition that the “something
Tx:22.39  way that seem hard, for you have chosen, although you still may  think you can go back and make the other choice. This is not so. A
Tx:22.40  your awareness, and peace has reached you even here before the veil.  Think what will happen after! The love of Christ will light your
Tx:22.41  Think of the loveliness that you will see who walk with Him! And
Tx:22.41 Think of the loveliness that you will see who walk with Him! And  think how beautiful will each of you look to the other! How happy you
Tx:22.53 Be not disturbed at all to  think how He can change the role of means and end so easily in what
Tx:22.60  And it is only arrogance that would deny the power of your will.  Think you the Will of God is powerless? Is this humility? You do not
Tx:22.61  be real. You do not see that this is your attempt because you  think the Father and the Son are separate. And you must think that
Tx:22.61  you think the Father and the Son are separate. And you must  think that they are separate because of fear. For it seems safer to
Tx:22.64  your minds are one? Look not with fear upon this happy fact and  think not that it lays a heavy burden on you. For when you have
Tx:23.2  fight against it and try to weaken it because of this; and you will  think that you succeeded and attack again. It is as certain you will
Tx:23.4  to littleness. There can be no attraction of guilt in innocence.  Think what a happy world you walk with truth beside you! Do not give
Tx:23.8  love there. This is the conflict's purpose. And to those who  think that it is possible, the means seem real.
Tx:23.11  be forgotten. It is forgotten in the body's life, and if you  think you are a body, you will believe you have forgotten it. Yet
Tx:23.17  turn on itself and seek to overcome the One Who dwells there? And  think what happens when the house of God perceives itself divided.
Tx:23.21  Think how this seems to interfere with the first principle of
Tx:23.23  Think what this seems to do to the relationship between the Father
Tx:23.24  which would define what the Creator of reality must be; what He must  think and what He must believe; and how He must respond, believing
Tx:23.26  And God Himself seems to be siding with it to overcome His Son.  Think not the ego will enable you to find escape from what it
Tx:23.29  it was taken from you by this enemy and hidden where you would not  think to look. He hid it in his body, making it the cover for his
Tx:23.35  says it wants to save. Be not deceived when madness takes a form you  think is lovely. What is intent on your destruction is not your
Tx:23.36 You would maintain and  think it true that you do not believe these senseless laws nor act
Tx:23.39  reversal, leading still deeper into terror and away from truth.  Think not one step is smaller than another nor that return from one
Tx:23.46  desire to communicate and the unnatural intent to murder and to die.  Think you the form that murder takes can offer safety? Can guilt be
Tx:23.54  Think what is given those who share their Father's purpose and who
Tx:23.54  their happiness could ever suffer change of any kind. Perhaps you  think the battleground can offer something that you can win. Can it
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 perfection?
Tx:24.4  challenge you to combat and to violence far more inclusive than you  think, are there by your election. Do not deny their presence nor
Tx:24.9  makes you give each other only partial welcome or would let you  think that you are better off apart. Is it not always your belief
Tx:24.15 You are not special. If you  think you are and would defend your specialness against the truth of
Tx:24.16  would look upon, and it would show them that the specialness they  think they see is an illusion. What would they see instead?
Tx:24.18  this: He has not lost the power to forgive you all the sins you  think you placed between him and the function of salvation given him
Tx:24.19  Think of the loveliness that you will see within yourself when you
Tx:24.30  death is not your will, must say, “Thy will be done” because you  think it is.
Tx:24.43  but the sight of death? Where does it lead but to destruction? Yet  think not that it looked upon your brother first, nor hated him
Tx:24.58  the rest. You place yourself under the laws you see as ruling him.  Think, then, how great the love of God for you must be that He has
Tx:24.65  body, yes, a little—not from time, but temporarily. And much you  think you save, you hurt. What would you save it for? For in that
Tx:25.2  bodies. And as long as they believe they are in bodies, where they  think they are He cannot be. And so they carry Him unknowingly and do
Tx:25.6  to be—the world you want to live in and the state in which you  think your mind will be content and satisfied. It chooses where you
Tx:25.6  think your mind will be content and satisfied. It chooses where you  think your safety lies, at your decision. It reveals yourself to you
Tx:25.10  takes note of time and place as if they were discrete, for while you  think that part of you is separate, the concept of a oneness joined
Tx:25.12  that what the body's eyes perceive fills you with fear? Perhaps you  think you find a hope of satisfaction there. Perhaps you fancy to
Tx:25.17  that will endure forever when yours has crumbled into dust. But  think you not the picture is destroyed in any way. What God creates
Tx:25.18  which but reflects the light that shines from it to its Creator.  Think not this face was ever darkened because you saw it in a frame
Tx:25.31  but he can wish for what would hurt him. And he has the power to  think he can be hurt. What could this be except a misperception of
Tx:25.33  at what you see because you see it to rejoice.” And while you  think that suffering and sin will bring you joy, so long will they be
Tx:25.35 Would you not do this for the love of God? And for yourself? For  think what it would do for you. Your “evil” thoughts that haunt you
Tx:25.38  wholly innocent? And who, because he wishes to attack, can fail to  think it must be guilty to deserve the wish and leave him innocent?
Tx:25.40  he would have found if he fulfilled the role God gave to him. But  think not Heaven is lost to him alone. Nor can it be regained unless
Tx:25.49  Holy Spirit needs your special function that His may be fulfilled.  Think not you lack a special value here. You wanted it, and it is
Tx:25.52 Let us go back to what we said before and  think of it more carefully. It must be so that either God is mad or
Tx:25.53  your Father's sanity and yours. For God and His beloved Son do not  think differently. And it is the agreement of their thought that
Tx:25.53  lie apart from both the Father and the Son. This you believe.  Think not that this belief depends upon the form it takes. Who thinks
Tx:25.56  to your special needs and to the special time and place in which you  think you find yourself and where you can be free of place and time

Tx:25.70  are innocent. Love is not understandable to sinners because they  think that justice is split off from love and stands for something
Tx:25.71  and vitality and powerless to save? What can Love ask of you who  think that all of this is true? Could He, in justice and in love
Tx:25.78 What can it be but arrogance to  think your little errors cannot be undone by Heaven's justice? And
Tx:25.85 Unless you  think that all your brothers have an equal right to miracles with
Tx:26.3  placed on everything outside, just as they are on everything you  think is yours. For giving and receiving are the same. And to
Tx:26.7  eyes and ears bear witness to the death of God and of His holy Son,  think not that you have power to make of them what God willed not
Tx:26.11 The Holy Spirit offers you release from every problem that you  think you have. They are the same to Him because each one, regardless
Tx:26.12  one mistake in any form has one correction. There is no loss; to  think there is, is a mistake. You have no problems, though you
Tx:26.12  to think there is, is a mistake. You have no problems, though you  think you have. And yet you could not think so if you saw them vanish
Tx:26.12  have no problems, though you think you have. And yet you could not  think so if you saw them vanish one by one without regard to size,
Tx:26.12  which you perceive that makes each one seem different from the rest.  Think not the limits you impose on what you see can limit God in any
Tx:26.15  and necessary to preserve yourself. It is these problems that you  think are great and cannot be resolved. For there are those you
Tx:26.16  Think then how great your own release will be when you are willing to
Tx:26.31  it can be used to reach a goal as high as learning can achieve?  Think not the way to Heaven's gate is difficult at all. Nothing you
Tx:26.33  maze you still perceive in time, though it has long since gone. You  think you live in what is past. Each thing you look upon you saw but
Tx:26.45  all power in earth and Heaven rests. The one illusion that you  think is friend obscures His grace and majesty from you and keeps
Tx:26.68  different forms. If it has been projected beyond your minds, you  think of it as time. The nearer it is brought to where it is, the
Tx:26.68  of it as time. The nearer it is brought to where it is, the more you  think of it in terms of space.
Tx:26.69  believe that trust would settle every problem now. Thus do you  think it safer to remain a little careful and a little watchful of
Tx:26.69  conceive of gaining what forgiveness offers now. The interval you  think lies in between the giving and receiving of the gift seems to
Tx:26.77  Think but how holy you must be from whom the Voice for God calls
Tx:26.77  that you may awake in him the Voice that answers to your call! And  think how holy he must be when in him sleeps your own salvation with
Tx:26.85  have a differential view of when attack is justified and when you  think it is unfair and not to be allowed. When you perceive it as
Tx:26.85  is unfair and not to be allowed. When you perceive it as unfair, you  think that a response of anger now is just. And thus you see what is
Tx:26.86  unfair to you? It means that there must be some forms in which you  think it fair. For otherwise, how could some be evaluated as
Tx:26.89 You  think your brother is unfair to you because you think that one must
Tx:26.89 You think your brother is unfair to you because you  think that one must be unfair to make the other innocent. And in this
Tx:27.16  of witness comes from your belief. And everything you say or do or  think but testifies to what you teach to him.
Tx:27.23  Correction, to a mind so split, must be a way to punish sins you  think are yours in someone else. And thus does he become your
Tx:27.25  two. And what you would correct is only half the error, which you  think is all of it. Your brother's sins become the central target for
Tx:27.59  is past forgiveness and is true. How foolish and insane it is to  think a miracle is bound by laws which it came solely to undo! The
Tx:27.64  of what I do. Your presence justifies my wrath, and you exist and  think apart from me. While you attack, I must be innocent. And what
Tx:27.73  more fearful than an idle dream has terrified God's Son and made him  think that he has lost his innocence, denied his Father, and made war
Tx:27.82  understand that time cannot intrude upon eternity. It is a joke to  think that time can come to circumvent eternity, which means there
Tx:27.83  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 what you
Tx:27.84  truth—you will believe that others do to you exactly what you  think you did to them. But once deluded into blaming them, you will
Tx:28.38  you fear and not the mind. You see them as the same because you  think that you are but a dream. And what is real and what is but
Tx:28.39  his illusion of himself, for your identity depends on his reality.  Think rather of him as a mind in which illusions still persist, but
Tx:28.49  it, you will not want to know your own Identity because you  think that it is fearful. And you will deny your Self and walk
Tx:28.50  understand or know. Its eyes are blind; its ears are deaf. It cannot  think, and so it cannot have effects.
Tx:28.57  own and all the rest of what is really yours. You hate it, yet you  think it is your self and that without it would your self be lost.
Tx:28.64  you alone. This world is but the dream that you can be alone and  think without affecting those apart from you. To be alone must mean
Tx:29.2  consequence the little gap must bring to those who cherish it and  think that it is their salvation and their hope.
Tx:29.5  not within itself. And herein lies its power over you. For now you  think that it determines when you meet and limits your ability to
Tx:29.20  not know he has, for giving is the proof of having. Only those who  think that God is lessened by their strength could fail to understand
Tx:29.21  Think you the Father lost Himself when He created you? Was He made
Tx:29.26 The dreams you  think you like would hold you back as much as those in which the fear
Tx:29.28  this become the “reason” your attack is justified? The dreams you  think you like are those in which the functions you have given have
Tx:29.28  should represent and should achieve for you. If it succeeds, you  think you like the dream. If it should fail, you think the dream is
Tx:29.28  If it succeeds, you think you like the dream. If it should fail, you  think the dream is sad. But whether it succeeds or fails is not its
Tx:29.31  are They remembered both. And where They are is Heaven and is peace.  Think not that you can change Their dwelling place. For your Identity
Tx:29.40  where purpose is not fixed, however changeless it appears to be.  Think not that you can set a goal unlike God's purpose for you and
Tx:29.42  bind your feet and tie your hands and kill your body only if you  think that it was made to crucify God's Son. For even though it was a
Tx:29.52 What is an idol? Do you  think you know? For idols are unrecognized as such and never seen for
Tx:29.64  the world and give their toys the power to move about and talk and  think and feel and speak for them. Yet everything their toys appear
Tx:30.2  and dedication weak, you are not ready. Do not fight yourself. But  think about the kind of day you want and tell yourself there is a
Tx:30.7 2. Throughout the day, at any time you  think of it and have a quiet moment for reflection, tell yourself
Tx:30.30  may be free. There is no freedom from what must occur. And if you  think there is, you must be wrong.
Tx:30.36  For what is done to him whom God so loves is done to God Himself.  Think not He wills to bind you, Who has made you co-creator of the
Tx:30.41 It never is the idol that you want. But what you  think it offers you, you want indeed and have the right to ask for.
Tx:30.43  nor have they a separate life apart from his. The thoughts you  think are in your mind, as you are in the mind Which thought of you.
Tx:30.49  ones. All idols are the false ideas you made to fill the gap you  think arose between yourself and what is true. And you attack them
Tx:30.49  yourself and what is true. And you attack them for the things you  think they represent. What lies beyond them cannot be attacked.
Tx:30.63  at the edge of the real world. Perhaps they still look back and  think they see an idol that they want. Yet has their path been surely
Tx:30.66 Do not look back except in honesty. And when an idol tempts you,  think of this:
Tx:30.73  But he is saved from this dilemma if he can forgive. The mind must  think of its Creator as it looks upon itself. If you can see your
Tx:30.73  have learned forgiveness is your right as much as his. Nor will you  think that God intends for you a fearful judgment which your brother
Tx:30.75  idols and are not prepared as yet to let all idols go. And thus you  think that some appearances are real and not appearances at all. Be
Tx:30.75  are harder to look past than others are. It always means you  think forgiveness must be limited. And you have set a goal of partial
Tx:30.78  perfect, or he cannot be God's Son. Nor will you know him if you  think he does not merit the escape from guilt in all its forms and
Tx:30.78  in all its forms and all its consequence. There is no way to  think of him but this if you would know the truth about yourself:
Tx:30.82  each one be open to interpretation which is different every time you  think of it. You add an element into the script you write for every
Tx:30.83  on different aspects of experience. And then in looking back you  think you see another meaning in what went before. What have you
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 capable of
Tx:31.14  And by your wish, you set two choices to be made each time you  think you must decide on anything. Neither is true. Nor are they
Tx:31.16 Perhaps you call it love. Perhaps you  think that it is murder justified at last. You hate the one you gave
Tx:31.16  And this is what you made your brother for and learned to  think that this his purpose is. Unless he serves it, he has not
Tx:31.18 Before you answer, pause to  think of this:
Tx:31.21  and answer to the Christ Who calls to you. Be still and listen.  Think not ancient thoughts. Forget the dismal lessons that you
Tx:31.23  would be a safer place for him to be. Can you make progress if you  think the same, advancing only when he would step back and falling
Tx:31.25  clear that while you still insist on leading or on following, you  think you walk alone with no one by your side? This is the road to
Tx:31.30  which sin must kill. In death is sin preserved, and those who  think that they are sin must die for what they think they are.
Tx:31.30  and those who think that they are sin must die for what they  think they are.
Tx:31.31  nor keep in chains to the illusion of a changing love the ones you  think are friends.
Tx:31.33 There is a tendency to  think the world can offer consolation and escape from problems which
Tx:31.33  And you are in control of outcomes of your choosing. Thus you  think within the narrow band from birth to death a little time is
Tx:31.39  Think not that happiness is ever found by following a road away
Tx:31.42  from yourself does not exist. How foolish and insane it is to  think that there could be a road with such an aim! Where could it go?
Tx:31.51  you. For even though you do not yet perceive that this is what you  think, you surely learned by now that you behave as if it were.
Tx:31.52  attacks it so? Let us forget the concept's foolishness and merely  think of this—there are two parts to what you think yourself to be.
Tx:31.52  and merely think of this—there are two parts to what you  think yourself to be. If one was generated by your brother, who was
Tx:31.53  must be kept in darkness is that in the light the one who would not  think it true is you. And what would happen to the world you know
Tx:31.56  mind, but with the simple statement that it thinks. And what can  think has choice and can be shown that different thoughts have
Tx:31.62  but this one. What you decide in this determines all you see and  think is real and hold as true. On this one choice does all your
Tx:31.65  forever true. It matters not where you believe you are nor what you  think the truth about yourself must really be. It makes no difference
Tx:31.65  no difference what you look upon nor what you choose to feel or  think or wish. For God Himself has said, “Your will be done.” And it
Tx:31.67  Your will be done, you holy Child of God. It does not matter if you  think you are in earth or Heaven. What your Father wills for you can
Tx:31.71  but never jointly held. The contrast is far greater than you  think, for you will love this concept of yourself because it was not
Tx:31.81  and meaningless, to make yourself a thing which you are not. And  think as well upon the thing that you would be instead. It is a thing
Tx:31.86  and the strength of Christ in you. And what you choose is what you  think is real. Simply by never using weakness to direct your actions,
W1:I.1  nothing. It is the purpose of these exercises to train the mind to  think along the lines which the course sets forth.
W1:4.1  subjects for the idea. Do not, however, select only the thoughts you  think are “bad.” You will find, if you train yourself to look at your
W1:5.1  preceding one, can be used with any person, situation, or event you  think is causing you pain. Apply it specifically to whatever you
W1:5.3 I am not angry at ____ for the reason I  think. I am not afraid of ____ for the reason I think.

W1:5.8  to some perceived sources of upset than to others. If this occurs,  think first of this:
W1:5.11  I am not worried about ____ for the reason I  think. I am not depressed about ____ for the reason I think.
W1:7.6 It is the reason why you are never upset for the reason you  think.
W1:8.2  true thought one can hold about the past is that it is not here. To  think about it at all is therefore to think about illusions. Very few
W1:8.2  is that it is not here. To think about it at all is therefore to  think about illusions. Very few minds have realized what is actually
W1:10.2  around you. The emphasis is now on the lack of reality of what you  think you think.

W1:10.3  a blank. To recognize this is to recognize nothingness when you  think you see it. As such, it is the prerequisite for vision.
W1:12.1  that it contains a correction for a major perceptual distortion. You  think that what upsets you is a frightening world, or a sad world, or
W1:12.4 I  think I see a fearful world, a dangerous world, a hostile world, a
W1:12.5  than negative occur to you, include them. For example, you might  think of a “good world,” or a “satisfying world.” If such terms occur
W1:12.6  alter the time intervals between applying today's idea to what you  think is pleasant and what you think is unpleasant. For the purposes
W1:12.6  applying today's idea to what you think is pleasant and what you  think is unpleasant. For the purposes of these exercises, there is no
W1:13.1  meaning exists. However, it does not follow that you will not  think you perceive something that has no meaning. On the contrary,
W1:13.1  has no meaning. On the contrary, you will be particularly likely to  think you do perceive it.
W1:13.7 A meaningless world engenders fear because I  think I am in competition with God.
W1:13.8  Do not dwell on the concluding statement, and try not even to  think of it except during the exercise periods. That will suffice at
W1:14.4 With eyes closed,  think of all the horrors in the world that cross your mind. Name each
W1:15.1 It is because the thoughts you  think you think appear as images that you do not recognize them as
W1:15.1 It is because the thoughts you think you  think appear as images that you do not recognize them as nothing. You
W1:15.1  appear as images that you do not recognize them as nothing. You  think you think them, and so you think you see them. This is how your
W1:15.1  as images that you do not recognize them as nothing. You think you  think them, and so you think you see them. This is how your “seeing”
W1:15.1  not recognize them as nothing. You think you think them, and so you  think you see them. This is how your “seeing” was made. This is the
W1:17.1  the way the world thinks, but you must learn that it is the way you  think. If it were not so, perception would have no cause and would
W1:23.4  cause is gone? Vision already holds a replacement for everything you  think you see now. Loveliness can light your images and so transform
W1:26.4  thoughts can attack you. Nothing except your thoughts can make you  think you are vulnerable. And nothing except your thoughts can prove
W1:30.4  “near” and “far.” To help you begin to get used to this idea, try to  think of things beyond your present range as well as those you can
W1:35.2 You will believe that you are part of where you  think you are. That is because you surround yourself with the
W1:35.8 You should not  think of these terms in an abstract way. They will occur to you as
W1:35.10  intervals in which nothing specific occurs to you. Do not strain to  think up specific things to fill the interval, but merely relax and
W1:38.3  problems, difficulties, or suffering in any form that you happen to  think of in yourself or someone else. We will make no distinctions

W1:39.1  been overlooked in the clouds of complexity in which you think you  think.
W1:41.5  period, repeat today's idea very slowly. Then make no effort to  think of anything. Try instead to get a sense of turning inward, past
W1:41.8  often, repeating it very slowly and preferably with eyes closed.  Think of what you are saying; what the words mean. Concentrate on the
W1:42.4  eyes and repeat the idea again, quite slowly. After this, try to  think of nothing except thoughts which occur to you in relation to
W1:42.4  thoughts which occur to you in relation to today's idea. You might  think, for example:
W1:43.3  apart from God. Whatever you do, you do in Him because whatever you  think, you think with His Mind. If vision is real, and it is real to
W1:43.3  God. Whatever you do, you do in Him because whatever you think, you  think with His Mind. If vision is real, and it is real to the extent
W1:43.11  out of accord with today's idea, or if you seem to be unable to  think of anything, open your eyes, repeat the first phase, and then
W1:44.1  darkness, and you cannot make light. You can make darkness and then  think you see in it, but light reflects life and is therefore an
W1:44.10  that you are approaching if not actually entering into light. Try to  think of light, formless and without limit, as you pass by the
W1:45.1  the key to what your real thoughts are. They are nothing that you  think you think, just as nothing that you think you see is related to
W1:45.1  to what your real thoughts are. They are nothing that you think you  think, just as nothing that you think you see is related to vision in
W1:45.1  They are nothing that you think you think, just as nothing that you  think you see is related to vision in any way. There is no
W1:45.1  any way. There is no relationship between what is real and what you  think is real. Nothing that you think are your real thoughts
W1:45.1  between what is real and what you think is real. Nothing that you  think are your real thoughts resembles your real thoughts in any
W1:45.1  resembles your real thoughts in any respect. Nothing that you  think you see bears any resemblance to what vision will show you.
W1:45.2 You  think with the Mind of God. Therefore you share your thoughts with
W1:45.2  To share is to make alike or to make one. Nor do the thoughts you  think with the Mind of God leave your mind, because thoughts do not
W1:50.4  let the idea for today sink deep into your consciousness. Repeat it,  think about it, let related thoughts come to help you recognize its
W1:R1.3  periods. Rather, try merely to emphasize the central point and  think about it as part of your review of the idea to which it relates.
W1:51.2  is necessary 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
W1:51.5  of which I am aware do not mean anything because I am trying to  think without God. What I call “my” thoughts are not my real
W1:51.5  are not my real thoughts. My real thoughts are the thoughts I  think with God. I am not aware of them because I have made my
W1:51.5  My thoughts are meaningless, but all creation lies in the thoughts I  think with God.
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
W1:51.6  upset for the reason I think. I am never upset for the reason I  think because I am constantly trying to justify “my” thoughts. I am
W1:54.3 [17] I see no neutral things. What I see witnesses to what I  think. If I did not think, I would not exist, because life is
W1:54.3  neutral things. What I see witnesses to what I think. If I did not  think, I would not exist, because life is thought. Let me look on the
W1:54.5  the effects of my thoughts. I am alone in nothing. Everything I  think or say or do touches all the universe. A Son of God cannot
W1:54.5  I think or say or do touches all the universe. A Son of God cannot  think or speak or act in vain. He cannot be alone in anything. It is
W1:55.5  recognize my own best interests when I do not know who I am? What I  think are my best interests would merely bind me closer to the world
W1:56.3  all else I want to see. Recognizing that what I see reflects what I  think I am, I realize that vision is my greatest need. The world I
W1:59.4  Beyond His Will lie only illusions. It is these I choose when I  think I can see apart from Him. It is these I choose when I try to
W1:59.6 [45] God is the Mind with which I  think. I have no thoughts I do not share with God. I have no
W1:61.4 You will want to  think about this idea as often as possible today. It is the perfect
W1:61.7 Then  think about these statements for a short while, preferably with your
W1:64.2  the world is a place where you learn to forgive yourself what you  think of as your sins. In this perception, the physical appearance of
W1:66.7  thoughts are wrong that the conclusion could be false. Let us, then,  think about the premises for a while, as we are practicing.
W1:66.11  Think about this during the longer practice period today. Think also
W1:66.11 Think about this during the longer practice period today.  Think also about the many forms which the illusion of your function
W1:66.12  listen to madness or hear the truth. Try to make this choice as you  think about the premises on which our conclusion rests. We can share
W1:66.16  than a minute, and probably less, to repeat these words slowly and  think about them a little while you say them.
W1:67.2  moment, that it is the truth. In the longer practice period, we will  think about your reality and its wholly unchanged and unchangeable
W1:68.2  make you unlike Him. It makes you believe that He is like what you  think you have become, for no one can conceive of his Creator as
W1:68.5 Perhaps you do not  think you can let all your grievances go. That, however, is simply a
W1:68.6  as major grievances. Some of these will be quite easy to find. Then  think of the seemingly minor grievances you hold against those you
W1:68.6  seemingly minor grievances you hold against those you like and even  think you love. It will quickly become apparent that there is no one
W1:68.9 Spend the remainder of the practice period trying to  think of yourself as completely at peace with everyone and
W1:69.4  go of all the content which generally occupies your consciousness.  Think of your mind as a vast circle, surrounded by a layer of heavy
W1:70.13  pass the clouds by whatever means appeals to you. If it helps you,  think of me holding your hand and leading you. And I assure you this
W1:74.9  difficult to resolve, single it out for special consideration.  Think about it briefly but very specifically, identify the particular
W1:76.3  Think of the freedom in the recognition that you are not bound by all
W1:76.3  and twisted laws which you have set up to save you. You really  think that you would starve unless you have stacks of green paper
W1:76.3  stacks of green paper strips and piles of metal discs. You really  think a small round pellet or some fluid pushed into your veins
W1:76.3  veins through a sharpened needle will ward off death. You really  think you are alone unless another body is with you.
W1:76.4  long catalogue of rituals that have no use and serve no purpose. You  think you must obey the “laws” of medicine, of economics, and of
W1:76.5  It is from this your “laws” would save the body. It is for this you  think you are a body.
W1:76.8  of medication, and of the body's protection in innumerable ways.  Think further—you believe in the laws of friendship, of “good”
W1:76.9 Perhaps you even  think that there are laws which set forth what is God's and what is
W1:78.5  and look at him. Someone perhaps you fear and even hate; someone you  think you love who angers you; someone you call a friend, but whom
W1:78.7  his body with its flaws and better points as well, and we will  think of his mistakes and even of his “sins.”
W1:78.10 The body's eyes are closed, and as you  think of him who grieved you, let your mind be shown the light in him
W1:78.12  behind our grievances. To everyone you meet and to the ones you  think of or remember from the past, allow the role of savior to be
W1:79.5  as you regard them. Some spring up unexpectedly, just as you  think you have resolved the previous ones. Others remain unsolved
W1:79.7  free our minds of all the many different kinds of problems that we  think we have. We will try to realize that we have only one problem,
W1:83.2  only, I am always certain what to do, what to say, and what to  think. All doubt must disappear as I acknowledge that my only
W1:91.8  this statement ends is needed for our exercises today. What you  think you are is a belief to be undone. But what you really are must
W1:92.1 The idea for today is an extension of the previous one. You do not  think of light in terms of strength and darkness in terms of
W1:92.2  and the body's eyes can see. You also believe the body's brain can  think. If you but understood the nature of thought, you could but
W1:92.2  more foolish than to believe the body's eyes can see, the brain can  think.
W1:92.3  that is the light in which you see, as it is His Mind with which you  think. His strength denies your weakness. It is your weakness that
W1:93.1 You  think you are the home of evil, darkness, and sin. You think if
W1:93.1 You think you are the home of evil, darkness, and sin. You  think if anyone could see the truth about you he would be repelled,
W1:93.1  be repelled, recoiling from you as if from a poisonous snake. You  think if what is true about you were revealed to you, you would be
W1:93.3 Today we question this, not from the point of view of what you  think, but from a very different reference point from which such idle
W1:93.4  would you not be overjoyed to be assured that all the evil that you  think you did was never done, that all your “sins” are nothing, that
W1:93.4  in you? Your image of yourself cannot withstand the Will of God. You  think that this is death, but it is life. You think you are
W1:93.4  the Will of God. You think that this is death, but it is life. You  think you are destroyed, but you are saved.
W1:93.5  this self 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
W1:93.7  created you, not what you made of yourself. Whatever evil you may  think you did, you are as God created you. Whatever mistakes you

W1:99.10 This part belongs to God, as does the rest. It does not  think its solitary thoughts and make them real by hiding them from

W1:100.8  of you or anyone who wants to take his place among God's messengers.  Think what this means. You have indeed been wrong in your belief that
W1:101.1  suffering as penance for your “sins.” This is not so. Yet you must  think it so while you believe that sin is real and that God's Son can
W1:102.1 You do not want to suffer. You may  think it buys you something and may still believe a little that it
W1:102.2  at all. It offers nothing and does not exist. And everything you  think it offers you is lacking in existence like itself. You have
W1:103.2  then with love, and its results become the heritage of minds that  think what they have made is real. These images, with no reality in
W1:105.7  to yourself. And here you must return to claim them as your own.  Think of your “enemies” a little while, and tell each one as he
W1:105.11  your five minutes thus with Him each time you can today, but do not  think that less is worthless when you cannot give Him more. At least
W1:107.9  certain of success as we are sure we live and hope and breathe and  think. We do not doubt we walk with truth today and count on it to
W1:108.10 Then close your eyes, and for five minutes  think of what you would hold out to everyone to have it yours. You
W1:108.12  return, for this is what you asked. It might be helpful, too, to  think of one to whom to give your gifts. He represents the others,
W1:108.13  from this time on, and we will make much faster progress now.  Think of the exercises for today as quick advances in your learning,
W1:R3.5  which are written first in each day's exercise. And then begin to  think about them while letting your mind relate them to your needs,
W1:R3.11  you keep your peace throughout the day as well. If you are shaken,  think of it again. These practice periods are planned to help you
W1:119.2  Truth will correct all errors in my mind. I am mistaken when I  think I can be hurt in any way. I am God's Son whose Self rests
W1:121.6  other Self in you. Through Him you learn how to forgive the self you  think you made and let it disappear. Thus you return your mind as one
W1:121.9  that they are one through practicing forgiving toward one whom you  think of as an enemy and one whom you consider as a friend. And as
W1:122.13  forgetfulness but hold them firmly in your mind by your attempts to  think of them at least a minute as each quarter of an hour passes by.
W1:123.8  for you, how perfect is His gratitude to you. Remember hourly to  think of Him and give Him thanks for everything He gave His Son that
W1:126.2  appeals for help are not in any way related to your own. You further  think that they can sin without affecting your perception of
W1:126.5  to let the sinner not escape the justified repayment for his sin.  Think you the Lord of Heaven would allow the world's salvation to
W1:126.7  Him the gift He asks of you, you cannot recognize His gifts and  think He has not given them to you. Yet would He ask you for a gift
W1:127.1 Perhaps you  think that different kinds of love are possible. Perhaps you think
W1:127.1  you think that different kinds of love are possible. Perhaps you  think there is a kind of love for this, a kind for that; a way of
W1:127.6 Today we practice making free our minds of all the laws you  think you must obey, of all the limits under which you live, and all
W1:127.6  all the limits under which you live, and all the changes which you  think are part of human destiny. Today we take the largest single
W1:127.11  our love if we would know our Self. At least three times an hour  think of one who makes the journey with you and who came to learn
W1:128.8 Protect your mind throughout the day as well. And when you  think you see some value in an aspect or an image of the world,
W1:129.1  more satisfying, filled with joy, and capable of offering you peace.  Think you this world can offer that to you?
W1:129.2 It might be worth a little time to  think once more about the value of this world. Perhaps you will
W1:130.4 Fear has made everything you  think you see. All separation, all distinctions, and the multitude of

W1:131.13 I ask to see a different world and  think a different kind of thought from those I made. The world I seek
W1:131.13  made. The world I seek I did not make alone. The thoughts I want to  think are not my own.
W1:131.14  mind and see, although your eyes are closed, the senseless world you  think is real. Review the thoughts as well which are compatible with
W1:131.14  as well which are compatible with such a world and which you  think are true. Then let them go, and sink below them to the holy
W1:132.2  change your mind means you have changed the source of all ideas you  think or ever thought or yet will think.
W1:132.2  the source of all ideas you think or ever thought or yet will  think.
W1:132.4  upon it are your wishes, acted out so you can look on them and  think them real.
W1:132.5 Perhaps you  think you did not make the world but came unwillingly to what was
W1:132.6  into a world quite separate from yourself, impervious to what you  think, and quite apart from what you chance to think it is.
W1:132.6  to what you think, and quite apart from what you chance to  think it is.
W1:132.12 Yet if you are as God created you, you cannot  think apart from Him nor make what does not share His timelessness
W1:133.3  Today we list the real criteria by which to test all things you  think you want. Unless they meet these sound requirements, they are
W1:133.12  thus you do not realize there are but two. And the alternative you  think you chose seems fearful and too dangerous to be the nothingness
W1:134.4 Because you  think your sins are real, you look on pardon as deception. For it is
W1:134.4  are real, you look on pardon as deception. For it is impossible to  think of sin as true and not believe forgiveness is a lie. Thus is
W1:134.5  mocked and twice condemned—first by themselves for what they  think they did and once again by those who pardon them.

W1:135.10  the faults, the weaknesses, the limits, and the lacks from which you  think the body must be saved. You will not see the mind as separate
W1:135.16  is occupied in setting up control of future happenings. It does not  think that it will be provided for unless it makes its own
W1:136.3  recognize exactly what you would attempt to do and then proceed to  think that it is done.
W1:136.9 How do you  think that sickness can succeed in shielding you from truth? Because
W1:136.12  has not bowed to hell, nor life to death. You can but choose to  think you die or suffer sickness or distort the truth in any way.
W1:136.14  fact which demonstrates that time is an illusion. For it lets you  think what God has given you is not the truth right now, as it must
W1:137.6 Yet  think not healing is unworthy of your function here. For anti-Christ
W1:138.1  because here we believe there are alternatives to choose between. We  think that all things have an opposite, and what we want we choose.
W1:138.1  for contradiction is the way we make what we perceive and what we  think is real. Creation knows no opposite. But here is opposition
W1:138.4 You need to be reminded that you  think a thousand choices are confronting you when there is really
W1:R4.3 My mind holds only what I  think with God.
W1:R4.6 And yet your mind holds only what you  think with God. Your self-deceptions cannot take the place of truth.
W1:R4.8 My mind holds only what I  think with God.
W1:151.3  see? You place pathetic faith in what your eyes and ears report. You  think your fingers touch reality and close upon the truth. This is
W1:151.3  and close upon the truth. This is awareness which you understand and  think more real than what is witnessed to by the eternal Voice of God
W1:152.1  his choice elects this state for him. No one can grieve nor fear nor  think him sick unless these are the outcomes that he wants. And no
W1:152.6 Is it not strange that you believe to  think you made the world you see is arrogance? God made it not. Of
W1:152.6  within a body that must die? You but accuse Him of insanity, to  think He made a world where such things seem to have reality. He is
W1:152.7 To  think that God made chaos, contradicts His Will, invented opposites
W1:152.7  things are not of Him. And can you see what God created not? To  think you can is merely to believe you can perceive what God willed
W1:152.8  your rightful place as co-creator of the universe, and all you  think you made will disappear. What rises to awareness then will be
W1:152.12 We  think of truth alone as we arise and spend five minutes practicing
W1:153.10 Be still a moment, and in silence  think how holy is your purpose, how secure you rest, untouchable
W1:153.18 In time, with practice, you will never cease to  think of Him and hear His loving Voice guiding your footsteps into
W1:153.18  even though your time is spent in offering salvation to the world.  Think you He will not make this possible for you who chose to carry
W1:154.1  its entirety. Our part is cast in Heaven, not in hell. And what we  think is weakness can be strength; what we believe to be our strength
W1:155.14 And now He asks but that you  think of Him a while each day that He may speak to you and tell you
W1:157.5  you look upon. A vision reaches everyone you meet, and everyone you  think of, or who thinks of you. For your experience today will so
W1:161.4  not understood nor understandable. The mind that taught itself to  think specifically can no longer grasp abstraction in the sense that
W1:161.12  smile, and see familiar gestures which he makes so frequently. Then  think of this—what you are seeing now conceals from you the sight
W1:162.4  complete because its sharing is unlimited. And thus you learn to  think with God. Christ's vision has restored your sight by salvaging
W1:164.8  the curtain in your practicing by merely letting go all things you  think you want. Your trifling treasures put away and leave a clean
W1:166.1  is one with His, His gifts are not received. But what would make you  think there is another will than His?
W1:166.2  world is not the Will of God, and so it is not real. Yet those who  think it real must still believe there is another will, and one that
W1:166.9  touched your shoulder, and you feel that you are not alone. You even  think the miserable self you thought was you may not be your
W1:167.3 You  think that death is of the body. Yet it is but an idea, irrelevant to
W1:167.6 The mind can  think it sleeps, but that is all. It cannot change what is its waking
W1:167.11  it and wills it be forever and forever. He is Lord of what we  think today. And in His thoughts, which have no opposite, we
W1:169.6 We cannot speak nor write nor even  think of this at all. It comes to every mind when total recognition
W1:170.1  attacks without intent to hurt. This can have no exception. When you  think that you attack in self defense, you mean that to be cruel is
W1:170.10 Yet do not  think that fear is the escape from fear. Let us remember what the
W1:182.4 Perhaps you  think it is your childhood home that you would find again. The
W1:182.9  comes without defenses, offering only love's messages to those who  think he is their enemy. He holds the might of Heaven in His hand and
W1:183.8  which can never be refused. And God will come and answer it Himself.  Think not He hears the little prayers of those who call on Him with
W1:184.2  a space between all things, between all things and you. Thus do you  think that you have given life in separation. By this split you think
W1:184.2  you think that you have given life in separation. By this split you  think you are established as a unity which functions with an
W1:184.6  sum of the inheritance the world bestows. And everyone who learns to  think that it is so accepts the signs and symbols which assert the
W1:184.8  Think not you made the world. Illusions, yes! But what is true in
W1:184.10  of what is true. And then step back to darkness, not because you  think it real, but only to proclaim its unreality in terms which
W1:185.2  mean these words and not be healed. He cannot play with dreams nor  think he is himself a dream. He cannot make a hell and think it real.
W1:185.2  dreams nor think he is himself a dream. He cannot make a hell and  think it real. He wants the peace of God, and it is given him. For
W1:188.6  become the holy messengers of God Himself. These thoughts you  think with Him. They recognize their home. And they point surely to
W1:189.10  Our hands are open to receive Your gifts. We have no thoughts we  think apart from You and cherish no beliefs of what we are or who
W1:190.4  The time has come to laugh at such insane ideas. There is no need to  think of them as savage crimes or secret sins with weighty
W1:190.6 My holy brothers,  think of this awhile—the world you see does nothing. It has no
W1:192.5  at all. The mind without the body cannot make mistakes. It cannot  think that it will die nor be the prey of merciless attack. Anger
W1:192.7  rage and our attack. Our understanding is so limited that what we  think we understand is but confusion born of error. We are lost in
W1:193.15  long, and we would linger here no more. And as we practice, let us  think about all things we saved to settle by ourselves and kept apart
W1:194.8  replacing all your thoughts of sin and evil with the truth of love.  Think you the world could fail to gain thereby and every living
W1:195.9 Today we learn to  think of gratitude in place of anger, malice, and revenge. We have
W1:197.1  must be received with honor, lest they be withdrawn. And so you  think God's gifts are loans at best; at worst, deceptions which would
W1:197.6 Withdraw the gifts you give, and you will  think that what is given you has been withdrawn. But learn to let
W1:197.6  been withdrawn. But learn to let forgiveness take away the sins you  think you see outside yourself, and you can never think the gifts of
W1:197.6  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 He
W1:197.9  extend this Self. All that you do is given unto Him. All that you  think can only be His thoughts, sharing with Him the holy thoughts of
W1:197.9  yourself when you forgot the function God has given you. But never  think that He has ever ceased to offer thanks to you.
W1:198.7  place where death is offered to God's Son and to his Father. You may  think They have accepted, but if you will look again upon the place
W1:198.8  They could die! How foolish to believe you can attack! How mad to  think that you could be condemned and that the holy Son of God can
W1:R6.11  place you in His charge and let Him teach you what to do and say and  think each time you turn to Him. He will not fail to be available to
W1:219.1  I am not a body. I am free. I am God's Son. Be still, my mind, and  think a moment upon this. And then return to earth without confusion
W2:I.9  the truth. Now we are glad that this is all undone, and we no longer  think illusions true. The memory of God is shimmering across the wide
W2:231.1 What can I seek for, Father, but Your Love? Perhaps I  think I seek for something else—a something I have called by many
W2:236.1  am its king at all. It seems to triumph over me and tell me what to  think and what to do and feel. And yet it has been given me to serve
W2:238.2 And so again today we pause to  think how much our Father loves us. And how dear His Son, created by
W2:242.2  come with wholly open minds. We do not ask for anything that we may  think we want. Give us what You would have received by us. You know
W2:243.1 I will be honest with myself today. I will not  think that I already know what must remain beyond my present grasp. I
W2:243.1  I already know what must remain beyond my present grasp. I will not  think I understand the whole from bits of my perception, which are
W2:245.1  I give Your peace to those who suffer pain or grieve for loss or  think they are bereft of hope and happiness. Send them to me, my
W2:246.1 Let me not  think that I can find the way to God if I have hatred in my heart.
W2:246.1  if I have hatred in my heart. Let me not try to hurt God's Son and  think that I can know his Father or my Self. Let me not fail to
W2:WIB.3  can change the purpose which the body will obey by changing what we  think that it is for.
W2:WIB.5 You will identify with what you  think will make you safe. Whatever it may be, you will believe that
W2:261.1 I will identify with what I  think is refuge and security. I will behold myself where I perceive
W2:261.1  and security. I will behold myself where I perceive my strength and  think I live within the citadel where I am safe and cannot be
W2:265.1  back at me. How fierce they seemed! And how deceived was I to  think that what I feared was in the world instead of in my mind
W2:275.2  to go, to whom to speak, and what to say to him, what thoughts to  think, what words to give the world. The safety that I bring is given
W2:281.1  If ever I am sad or hurt or ill, I have forgotten what You  think and put my little, meaningless ideas in place of where Your
W2:281.1  They are. I can be hurt by nothing but my thoughts. The thoughts I  think with You can only bless. The thoughts I think with You alone
W2:281.1  The thoughts I think with You can only bless. The thoughts I  think with You alone are true.
W2:292.1  long we let an alien will appear to be opposing His. And while we  think this will is real, we will not find the end He has appointed as
W2:292.2  us for every problem that we can perceive, for every trial we  think we still must meet.
W2:309.1  will as God created it and as it is. I fear to look within because I  think I made another will which is not true and made it real. Yet it
W2:330.2 Father, Your Son cannot be hurt. And if we  think we suffer, we but fail to know our one Identity we share with
W2:331.1  me desolate, to die within a world of pain and cruelty. How could I  think that Love has left Itself? There is no will except the will of
W2:339.1 No one desires pain. But he can  think that pain is pleasure. No one would avoid his happiness. But he
W2:339.1  that pain is pleasure. No one would avoid his happiness. But he can  think that joy is painful, threatening, and dangerous. Everyone will
W2:357.1  me how to offer miracles and thus escape the prison house in which I  think I live. Your holy Son is pointed out to me, first in my
W2:E.4  with Him as Guide through every difficulty and all pain that you may  think is real. Nor will He give you pleasures that will pass away,
M:I.3  that you set up is therefore determined exclusively by what you  think you are and what you believe the relationship of others is to

M:27.1  central dream from which all illusions stem. Is it not madness to  think of life as being born, aging, losing vitality, and dying in the
M:27.2  of the universe as God created it, it would not be possible to  think of Him as loving. For who has decreed that all things pass
M:27.6  the world fosters in its vain attempts to cling to death and yet to  think love real are mindless magic, ineffectual and meaningless. God
M:29.3  it is this that lets the memory of love return to you. Do not, then,  think that following the Holy Spirit's guidance is necessary merely

C:5.20  to union.” As often as you need to replace senseless thoughts,  think of this and say it to yourself not once but a hundred times a
C:5.22  and alone. Your entire resistance to God is based on this. You  think you have chosen to be separate from God so that you can make it
C:5.23  the adversity and obstacles that would keep you from having what you  think you want to have. This is your definition of life, and while it

C:5.25  failed to work will surely fail again. Stop now and give up what you  think you want.
C:5.30  relationship with you would add to your discomfort and your pain. To  think that any relationship can cause terror, discomfort, or pain is
C:5.31 You  think that to come in contact with violence is to have a relationship
C:6.10  in effort to attain it? And even if it were so, what then? Some, you  think, might choose to live near the equator, to have the sun shine
C:6.10  the need to stoke the fire put behind them. But not you. You, you  think, prefer the seasons, the cold as well as the warmth, the snow
C:6.12  Heaven and its milieu of eternal peace is rightly kept, you  think, for the end of life, and so you scream at the unfairness when
C:6.16  and the rain falls on the good and evil alike.” Why then do you  think that peace is endless sunshine? Peace is merely enjoyment of
C:6.19  Think about this now—for how could heaven be a separate place? A
C:6.20  those you love severed when they leave this world? Do you not still  think of them? And do you not still think of them as who they were in
C:6.20  this world? Do you not still think of them? And do you not still  think of them as who they were in life? What is the difference, in

C:8.6 You  think of the heart as the place of feeling, and thus you associate
C:8.8 What foolishness to  think love could abide with companions such as these. If these be in
C:8.9  your heart lies love's reality, a reality so foreign to you that you  think you remember it not. Yet it is to this reality we head as we
C:8.15  Think of your body now as the surface of your existence and look upon
C:8.17  you are, and you could not be anywhere else. Your home is here. You  think this is incongruous with the truth as I'm revealing it, the
C:8.17  home, but it is not. There is no here in the terms that you would  think of it, the terms that set your reality in a location, on a
C:8.19  described in A Course in Miracles as the Holy Instant. You may not  think observation of your body is a good way to achieve this, but as
C:8.26 How like to memory it is to  think a thing remembered in every smallest detail and yet to have no
C:8.26  is twisted and distorted by what you would have it be. Everyone can  think of at least one long remembered incident that when given to the
C:9.6  just like every other object that shares the space you occupy.  Think for a moment of what the creator of such a body would have
C:9.10  back and observe your body, always with the vision of your heart,  think about just what it is that you would use it for. What God
C:9.21  Think now of one of those you have identified as living the life of
C:9.21  absence of hunger is fullness. The absence of violence peace. You  think that if you but provide these things that are opposite to what
C:9.22  I have said when you do this unto others you do this to me. Do you  think that I am in need of a meal, a cup of water, a warm bed? While
C:9.30  Think of your automobile or computer or any other thing you use.
C:9.38  your prayerfulness. Like a diversified investment portfolio, you  think this parceling out of different aspects of yourself protects
C:9.43  based on use is to see a world where freedom is impossible. What you  think you need your sister for is thus based upon this insane premise
C:9.43  or athletic or artistic talent that can be used, how lucky you  think you are. A beautiful face and a fit body can be traded for so
C:9.45  All such confusion stems from the initial confusion of the use you  think your body would put you to. All such confusion stems from your
C:9.46  from God, still you blame God for creating a situation in which you  think you have been allowed to hurt yourself. How could God allow all
C:10.1  your separation. That it has seeming power can only be because you  think you put your power there. If this were true, much power indeed
C:10.1  with the power of creation without your joining with it. How, you  think, could you be more linked with anything than you are with your
C:10.3  separate from your own and must exist in the reality where you  think you are.
C:10.5  the greatest hurdle to overcome. As you observe the body and dare to  think of life without it, you again and again encounter its reality.
C:10.5  to you that it is insurmountable. Many people at this point try to  think these maladies away, and when they do not succeed they see this
C:10.5  evidence of their entrenchment in the body. Beware all attempts to  think the body away and to think miracles into existence. This desire
C:10.5  in the body. Beware all attempts to think the body away and to  think miracles into existence. This desire merely shows you know not
C:10.7  Think of another, a teacher or a parent, whose “voice” you hear as
C:10.12  in God, in me, in heaven and in an afterlife is that you do not  think you will be proven wrong here. If you are wrong, you will
C:10.26  conceived from meanness. There will be a happier self who seems to  think this game is rather fun, and who is not at all concerned with
C:11.2 You  think your source and your Creator are two separate things, and too
C:11.9 To  think you must protect anything from God is insane, and you know that
C:11.9  up its protection. It does not matter to you that it is insane to  think that He who has given you everything seeks to take anything
C:11.9  you. While you still view yourself as a body, you cannot help but  think of God as a vengeful God whose final vengeance is your own
C:11.9  God whose final vengeance is your own death. While you still  think of your self as a body, it is easier to accept that your
C:11.9  your banishment from paradise was God's decision, not your own. You  think you can be grateful to Him for some things and blame Him for
C:11.9  for some things and blame Him for others. Yes, perhaps this God you  think you know has given you everything, but He can also take it all
C:11.10  and cherish your free will, the true god of the separated self. You  think at times that this was God's mistake, the one weakness in His
C:11.10  weakness in His plan, and one that you would use. At other times you  think that this was but God's curse on you, a thing to tempt you to
C:11.17  you to do nothing but to remain faithful to it. You do not need to  think about it, but only let it be. You need put no words on it, for
C:12.2  to be told you know love not. You feel a little deceived to  think that love may not be limited to what you have thought it to be.
C:12.2  that love may not be limited to what you have thought it to be. You  think it is typical of a spiritual text to tell you love is the
C:12.7  to any ideas that seem to be about change. What little that you  think you know you would strive to keep, and yet deep down you
C:12.8  change at all, for it merely seeks to remove all the changes you but  think that you have made to God's creation. This change seeks but to
C:12.15 Joined minds cannot  think separately and have no hidden thoughts. They are, in fact, not
C:13.8  but know that anything that distracts you from the little self you  think you are is worth the minutes you would give to its
C:14.1  within God's creation, rather than in the world that you have made.  Think but a minute of this, and you will begin to see the enormity of
C:14.2  can be achieved any more than can your separation from what you  think is unlike you.
C:14.6  who is insane. You—who pride yourself on reason and practicality— think if a creation such as this could contain any reason whatsoever.
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
C:14.9  Think you not that reason opposes love, for love gives reason its
C:14.15  that you consider valuable you could not wait to share. Perhaps you  think the desire to keep things for yourself stems from something
C:14.18 You  think that you are quite aware of your small space within the
C:14.18  within the universe, and that it is foolishness to say that you  think otherwise. Yet, since only what you know is part of your
C:14.21  still believe that love exists despite fear's claim upon it, and  think that they are lucky to have found a love to shield them for a
C:14.22  make you special to someone else, and that one special to you. You  think this is what love is for, and so you make of it something it is
C:14.29 You  think love is what you value most, and so resist any notion that what
C:14.29  and so resist any notion that what you view as love is not what you  think it is. But as long as you equate love with the special ones on
C:14.30  fact, you have no hope of change, nor does your world. You who  think, “What harm can come of loving this one above all others?”
C:14.30  who think, “What harm can come of loving this one above all others?”  think again. For you are choosing not to love but to make special.
C:15.1  to love without the interference of all that would make special. You  think issues of survival rule the world—and so they do, but they
C:15.4  parents or your friends, and would be quite content to have them  think you special and to make them special to you. Out in the wider
C:15.4  special and to make them special to you. Out in the wider world you  think you are anonymous and so are they. If within the small sphere

C:15.7  others think of you does not make you special, nor does what you  think or do for others make them special. All notions of popularity,
C:15.9  seems the ultimate act of disloyalty to your own kind. To even  think that you could change and be unlike others of your kind, you
C:16.1  not from another. Love is not available from anyone in the way you  think it is. Love has but one source! That this source lies within
C:16.12  but true forgiveness is as foreign to you as is true love. You  think forgiveness looks upon another in judgment and pardons the
C:16.14 You  think you cannot give up your vigilance because you know no other way
C:16.15  many that you do not are all that make your life worth living. You  think that to be asked to give up the caution, protection, and
C:16.16  and culture indulge in the desire to judge, the more godlike they  think they make themselves. For all of you here know that judgment is
C:16.18  who judges all of creation as it was created and remains. You only  think that you have changed the unchangeable.
C:16.22  in your identity. For you are not powerless. Those of you who  think you have traditional means of power on your side turn not to
C:16.24  not want. You look back on stories of sacrifice from the Bible and  think what a barbaric time that was, and yet you repeat the same
C:16.24  it a waste, and yet you give up your power to be who you are and  think it is just the way life is. You give away your power and then
C:16.25  power created the world of illusion in which you live, and so you  think another must be able to do it better. You no longer trust
C:16.25  do, you reason, society would collapse and anarchy would rule. You  think you are only fair in deciding that if everyone cannot do what
C:18.4 Yet this is, in effect, what you  think you have done. You think that you have changed the nature of
C:18.4 Yet this is, in effect, what you think you have done. You  think that you have changed the nature of the universe and made it
C:18.22 While we spoke of what you  think of as emotion being reactions of the body to stimulus, we did
C:18.24  and replace them with feelings of love causes all your distress.  Think not that you react to pain of any kind with the love from your
C:19.13  of duality. It cannot be otherwise in your separated state. You must  think in terms of “I” and “them,” “death and life,” “good and evil.”
C:19.16 To  think without thought or know without words are ideas quite foreign
C:19.22  more in the way of reflection than review, although if you were to  think of this as a re-viewing of your self, you would be quite
C:20.14 I am alive and you do believe this or you would not be here. Yet you  think not of me living and imagine it not. Christ reigns in the
C:20.29 Miracles are expressions of love. You might  think of them as acts of cooperation. Holiness cannot be contained,
C:20.47  the greater life of the universe. You must understand that when you  think of your personal life, personal concerns, personal

C:20.48  the return to what is known. This knowing you might call wisdom and  think of as an attainable ideal of thought. Yet it is not about
C:22.9  day must pass through you in order to gain reality. While you might  think of this as everything outside of yourself, please, when
C:22.11 You might  think of the axis for a moment as a funnel through which eternity is
C:22.12  pass through one or another of your five senses—which you might  think of collectively as layers—and are allowed no other access.
C:22.19 The personal and individual is the “I” we are dispelling.  Think a moment of how you tell a story or report on events that have
C:22.20  when you walk out your door in the morning you might generally  think, “What a lovely day.” What this sentence says is that you have
C:23.9  in a small room. This is not relationship. When you are tempted to  think of relationship having to do with physical proximity, think of
C:23.9  to think of relationship having to do with physical proximity,  think of this example. Now imagine communities of faith. Around the
C:23.10 This is true of the body as well.  Think of the way in which the word body is used and this will be
C:25.13  as hurt, but you do feel these emotions as wounds. While you  think you can remain disappointed or disillusioned, you will not be
C:25.23  this is exactly when a time of stillness is needed. You might  think of this time of stillness as a time of consulting with your new
C:26.1  career, religious commitment, or creative endeavors. Some would  think of travel and adventure, friendships, or financial security.
C:26.1  and adventure, friendships, or financial security. Most of you will  think of having a long life.
C:26.7  if you were to attempt to assign the meaning to your life that you  think it should have, a fall would surely await you, at least in your
C:26.22  Think a moment of a novel or movie with no plot. This would be the
C:26.25  of that thought and that pattern. The only way to know it is to  think it once again. The only way to think it once again is to be

C:27.12  you are not learning the truth. You do not understand because you  think in terms of singularity rather than in terms of unity. This is
C:27.16  Will to be done. You fear being a miracle worker because you do not  think that you will ever know what is called for.
C:27.18  see it here, the power of details and the information of which you  think when desiring or fearing a fate of prophecy. The power we speak
C:28.3  testimony validates the proof of inner and collective knowing. You  think shared beliefs amass, like a congregation around a pulpit, and
C:28.7 You would  think of this as the time of work being done. This it is, but without
C:28.9  to know pointless to you as well as to those you would convince? You  think that when you are enlightened enough to know, you are also
C:28.9  enough to know what to do with what you know. While you continue to  think of a separation in terms of doing and of knowing, it is obvious
C:29.2  choice, a course that will lead you to a subservient stature. Others  think of it in terms of charity, and continue to see a difference
C:29.11 Many of you  think of life itself as toil. There is much you need to do just to
C:29.11  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 something to be fit
C:29.11  no time for more than you do now, and you think of service, if you  think of it at all, as something to be fit in here or there where it

C:30.4  to be present as an instruction that relates to time. You  think of present time, past time, future time. We have spoken of
C:30.5  achieved. For universal consciousness is knowing Self, while you  think it is knowing all. Knowing Self is knowing all, but this you do
C:30.11  information, some guarantee, some proof or validation. You might  think if you are “right” you will be successful, if you are
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

C:31.15 All that you would keep private and unshared is, in essence, who you  think you are. I say who you think you are because it is important to
C:31.15  and unshared is, in essence, who you think you are. I say who you  think you are because it is important to distinguish who you think
C:31.15  who you think you are because it is important to distinguish who you  think you are from who you truly are. On the one hand, you think that
C:31.15  who you think you are from who you truly are. On the one hand, you  think that you are your past, your shame, your guilt; on the other
C:31.18  worrying about honesty and sharing being about some need to confess,  think a moment about why you are worried. The idea of confessing is
C:31.18  who you are being all tied up with sin and a need for forgiveness,  think of this simply as a need to share. This would seem antithetical
C:31.18  said—that what you keep you lose, and what you share you gain. You  think of confessing as a way of letting go and getting rid of that
C:31.22 Sharing is thus not about who you  think you are, but about who you truly are, and yet it is the way to
C:31.29  their Selves in you. If you are constantly reflecting back what you  think your brothers and sisters want to see, they can learn nothing
C:31.29  to see, they can learn nothing from you. If your truth about who you  think you are changes day-to-day, you are reflecting the very variety

T1:2.1 The closing pages of A Course of Love instructed you to  think no more. A break in time was needed for you to disengage the

T1:3.9  at doing, you want to choose the “right” miracle. Some of you may  think through just what kind of miracle would be most convincing to
T1:3.9  you see this exercise as what it is, an attempt to convince you to  think otherwise about yourself. If you ask for a cure for a disease,
T1:3.11  miracles is, the fear of not being able to perform is greater. You  think of this as a test and one you can pass or fail. And what's
T1:4.10  Think of all you now feel responsible for and this lesson will become
T1:4.14 Do you  think the Creator is responsible for what was created? To think of
T1:4.14 Do you think the Creator is responsible for what was created? To  think of the Creator in this way is to think of the Creator with the
T1:4.14  for what was created? To think of the Creator in this way is to  think of the Creator with the upside-down thinking of the ego-mind.
T1:4.19  interpretation of events and feelings has given them their meaning— think again. Their meaning exists already and is not up to you to
T1:4.19  and the feelings they have aroused have defined who you are,  think again. Be willing to apply the art of thought rather than the
T1:5.10 The body, and thus the “you” whom you  think you are, would not experience anything without the presence of
T1:8.17 We have talked thus far of union of heart and mind. Lest you  think that this union is not all-encompassing, we will reflect a
T1:9.3  an elevation beyond form, it must begin in the reality where you  think you are. In other words, it must begin with form. You cannot
T1:9.15  might be to puff oneself up with pride, bolster one's position,  think one's way through, argue, manipulate, or chastise another so
T1:10.2  back. You will experience this loss of extremes as a lack. You will  think something is wrong. You will feel this particularly when others
T1:10.2  that a wave of desire to be fully human will wash over you. You will  think that this human who has caught your attention is fully engaged
T1:10.2  is fully engaged and fully experiencing the moment. You will  think this is what you want. And I say again that it will not matter
T1:10.3  or the most all-encompassing joy, you will feel inhuman. You will  think that this cannot be where you are meant to be, what you are
T1:10.9  grief that also became an experience of profound learning. You will  think that you would not be who you are now without experiences such
T1:10.9  be who you are now without experiences such as this one. You will  think that I cannot possibly be asking you to give up these types of
T2:1.3  physical treasure except to say that the feelings that cause one to  think that any physical thing is capable of being a treasure or being
T2:1.4  internal treasures you had once hoped to have become abilities. You  think this willingness to accept who you are now is what this Course
T2:1.8  and the chaos that seems to reign there. You must realize that you  think in terms of place because you think in terms of form. Thus even
T2:1.8  there. You must realize that you think in terms of place because you  think in terms of form. Thus even I have often used the idea of place
T2:1.8  idea of place as a teaching aid. But you are ready now to begin to  think without the need for form.
T2:1.13 Ego desires cause one to  think of a grand piano. Thoughts joined in unity hear music. Ego
T2:1.13  piano. Thoughts joined in unity hear music. Ego desires cause one to  think of an elaborately framed painting. Thoughts joined in unity see
T2:2.9 You  think that what prevents you from being who you are is far broader
T2:2.9  simple idea of hearing and following a calling would indicate. You  think what prevents you from being who you are is far broader than a
T2:3.3 Your mind exists in unity. Your heart exists where you  think you are, thus providing the means for union between where you
T2:3.3  think you are, thus providing the means for union between where you  think you are and where your being actually resides. Remember always
T2:4.2  completely contrary to the meaning of creation. Yet you continue to  think that you stand apart from it and affect it not. This is
T2:4.3  the ego-mind that has provided you with an identity that you but  think you are. A Course of Love then followed in order to reveal to
T2:4.3  you truly are. While you continue to act within the world as who you  think you are rather than as who you are, you have not integrated
T2:4.4  acted out of a set of conditions that corresponded to who you  think you are rather than who you truly are.
T2:4.5 You will almost literally continue to “bump in” to who you  think you are as you complete the process of unlearning. It might be
T2:4.5  world as who you truly are is like swimming, bumping in to who you  think you are could be likened to trying to move within water as you
T2:4.6  in learning to recognize when you are acting upon notions of who you  think you are rather than on who you truly are, is the appearance of
T2:4.11  callings, matters not at this juncture. What matters is that you  think it does. You think it matters because you compare and judge

T2:4.19  of it grows, it is going to raise it to a level you will come to  think of as an ability. As your old way of responding to life causes
T2:5.4 These calls you may  think of as signs. Like literal signposts along a roadway, they alert
T2:6.2  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 thinking,
T2:6.5 What does this mean in regards to time? You might  think of being accomplished as all of your work being done. If there
T2:6.10 As I have already said that your heart must exist where you  think you are, you can begin to see that this change in thinking will
T2:9.1  felt from another the desire to help or to meet your needs. Do not  think that this desire is not present in all relationships. It is
T2:9.4  a job or loved one or even of the promise of some service. When you  think in such a way you believe in loss and gain rather than in the
T2:9.7  only. Thinking beings share needs because of the way in which they  think. That some seem to have more needs than others is a fallacy of
T2:9.11  as it is of special relationships and what you might more readily  think of as treasure, such as a successful career or inspired
T2:9.16  is complete. Once this trust is realized you will no longer  think in terms of needs at all. Once you are no longer concerned with
T2:9.17 Holding on to what you  think will meet your needs is like holding your breath. Your breath
T2:9.17  and take of breathing that you live. Each time you are tempted to  think that your needs can only be met in special ways by special
T2:9.17  special relationships, remember this example of holding your breath.  Think in such a way no longer than you can comfortably hold your
T2:9.18  which trust can grow. Once this trust is realized you will no longer  think of trust just as you will no longer think of needs.
T2:9.18  you will no longer think of trust just as you will no longer  think of needs.
T2:9.19 Ceasing to  think in these terms will soon be seen as a valuable ability and a
T2:10.3 I ask you to  think for a moment of a time when you attempted to recall a specific
T2:10.4 You might  think of unity as you have so often thought of your brain, but rather
T2:10.4  of your brain, but rather than thinking of it in the singular,  think of it as a storehouse or giant brain in which all that has ever
T2:10.8  to lie beyond your ability lies in the Christ in you. You might  think of the ego as the hand that swats away this knowing.
T2:10.15  for you to believe that the Christ in you is in need of learning.  Think a moment of why this should be so. Is there ever a moment in
T2:10.17 What difference does it make to your concepts of learning when you  think of life as your coursework? Would you be any more willing to
T2:10.18 What are your plans and dreams but chosen lessons? While you do not  think of them as such you do not think of life as your learning
T2:10.18  chosen lessons? While you do not think of them as such you do not  think of life as your learning ground. You still think of lessons as
T2:10.18  as such you do not think of life as your learning ground. You still  think of lessons as being about specific subject matter. When life
T2:11.10 Realize that when you  think that this total reversal of thought concerning yourself and
T2:11.16  the world will not change and you will not know who you are. You may  think you know, and you may waste much time in perceived battles,
T2:12.5  other than your own thinking that is in need of correction you  think falsely. Right-thinking is the realm of miracles.
T2:13.4  of false thinking because I lived among you as a thinking being.  Think not that I was different than you and you will realize that we
T3:2.1  to serve to have anything exist only as a representation? We might  think of this in terms of original purpose and the original purpose
T3:2.1  are not expressions that remain contained to who you are or who you  think yourself to be. They are not expressions of the self alone.
T3:2.4  time was spent within this Course, discussing the choice you but  think you made, this discussion was necessary only in the same terms
T3:2.11  you, but you who abandoned your Self and God. Give up your desire to  think that if you did such a thing there was a reason for you to have
T3:3.8 You cannot  think your way to the new life that calls to you. You can only get
T3:3.9  this Course, your self is still seen as a stumbling block. You might  think that were you able to live in some ideal community, away from
T3:3.9  simply declare yourself unsuitable for further learning. Whether you  think such thoughts consciously or not, there is a part of you that
T3:6.1  from God, some from life, some from fate. No matter who it is you  think is in charge of rewarding you, the attitude that causes you to
T3:8.4  of bitterness as something that you are attached to, I want you to  think of attachments for a time and see how bitterness does indeed
T3:8.6  your ancestors for the history, both ancient and recent, that you  think you would have given anything to change? Do you look upon the
T3:9.3  and finding a completely new reality beyond its walls. You might  think, at first, that you are in a place so foreign that you must
T3:10.13  Think of this, for a moment as you would a learned language. If you
T3:10.13  But eventually, if this situation went on for many years, you might  think you had forgotten your ability to understand English.
T3:10.14  of the ego into the thought system of the Christ-Self that you but  think you have forgotten. As you dwell in the House of Truth, if you
T3:11.12  no different than I am, then you must see that you cannot begin to  think of yourself as different than your brothers and sisters. All
T3:11.12  the House of Truth because it is where your brothers and sisters  think they are. The house of illusion is not a hell to which anyone
T3:13.7  way must be birthed and lived by. While most of you will immediately  think of your survival needs, this is far from the only area in which
T3:14.2  If you have felt a lack of respect you may feel that what others  think of you matters not and enjoy a heightened self-concept. While
T3:14.5  What this means to the learning stage you are at now is that you but  think you are discontent with much of your life. As you begin to
T3:14.11  up bitterness in order to usher in a world of peace, would you not  think this a selfish act?
T3:14.12 Atonement, or correction, is not of you but of God. You might  think of this in terms of nature and look upon nature's ability to
T3:16.10  or to desires that you may feel have gone unfulfilled. While you may  think that this means you are being asked to do without, this is not
T3:17.6  such as Holy Spirit, are but word symbols that represent what is. So  think now of whatever stories you know of the Holy Spirit, stories
T3:19.8  and effect are not influenced by what comes of fear. You may still  think that suffering and “bad” behavior have had great effects but
T3:19.14 You would  think that this disparity would be divisive and extremely
T3:19.14  the house of illusion will still be able to deny what they see. Just  think of how many saints and miracles you have heard of in the past
T3:20.6  Think about a situation in which you have observed the illness or
T3:20.6  Judgment is never far from these observations. Suffering, you would  think, could not be seen as anything but “bad.” You cannot feel
T3:20.7  such circumstances. You cannot imagine not offering sympathy. You  think it naïve to believe in positive outcomes. You listen to
T3:20.7  that God spare this one from a future seemingly already written, and  think that is more realistic and even helpful than living by the laws
T3:20.8  call for the same response, the response of love to love. Why  think you it is loving to believe in suffering? Do you not begin to
T3:20.11  who you are and because you realize you can no longer be, live, or  think as other than who you are in truth. This is how thorough your
T3:21.8 This certainty is antithetical to you. You  think that to believe in one truth is to deny other truths. There is
T3:21.11  simply because you could not exist without an identity. You might  think of this as being certain of facts and information, for these
T3:21.13  behaviors that fall within the parameters of your belief system. You  think of these things as part of what make up the totality of who you
T3:21.24  of this Course than you to be the savior only you can be. Do not  think that only those who are more bold than you or who speak more
T3:22.1  to a leadership role, you know that you are called to something and  think that you as yet know not what that something is. You think that
T3:22.1  and think that you as yet know not what that something is. You  think that to be asked to simply “live” by the truth could not
T4:2.9  upon hearing words such as the end of time or the fullness of time,  think of the predictions of the biblical end of time. I speak of this
T4:2.10  these false ideas that would keep you from this awareness. If you  think you can observe in judgment you do not understand the
T4:2.19  as holy as your Self. This holiness need only be observed. When you  think in terms of evangelizing or convincing, you think in terms of
T4:2.19  observed. When you think in terms of evangelizing or convincing, you  think in terms of future outcome rather than in terms of what already
T4:2.23  Think of this denial now, for it is still evident in the pattern of
T4:2.29  yet recognize it when you experience it. This is why you can still  think of observance of what is as a game of make believe and feel
T4:4.2  the pattern that has been taken to extremes within your world. You  think of birth as creation and death as rest. You do not realize that
T4:4.10  prolonged without a substantial change in the nature of life. To  think of living on and on as you have lived your life thus far would
T4:4.16  exist now. Remember, the heart must abide in the reality where you  think you are. Only through your mind's acceptance of your new
T4:5.2  exist with you, form the orchestra and chorus of creation. You might  think of your time here as that of being apprentice musicians. You
T4:5.4  to live, this one Energy had to enter your form and exist where you  think you are. This is the Energy of Love, the Energy of Creation,
T4:5.5  but an extension of this energy, a representation of it. You might  think of this as a small spark of the energy that has created a
T4:5.9  is as impossible as it would be for the finger to do so. And yet you  think that this is possible and that this is the meaning of free
T4:5.11  human form. When you die, you do not die to who you are or who you  think you are. You do not die to choice. At the time of death you are
T4:5.12  only after your death that you chose direct revelation by God.  Think about this now and you will see that it is true. You hoped to
T4:7.5  just like your heart, exists in the state or reality in which you  think you are. The only thing that has created an unreal reality for
T4:8.14  one whose name and identity is synonymous with creation? You like to  think that God knows everything, and God surely knows everything that
T4:8.16 You  think of a state of knowing as a state of there being nothing you do
T4:10.2  rather than studying, and yet you will quickly see that you merely  think of experience as learning through a different means than
T4:12.10  concerns and questions, you will be prone to continue to  think of yourself as a learning being. While these dialogues continue
T4:12.10  to address these same questions and concerns, you will be prone to  think of them as teaching dialogues and to consider yourself still a
T4:12.18  Think and speak no more of the suffering of the past. Spread the
T4:12.19  try to remember to turn to the new rather than the old each time you  think you are experiencing uncertainty or lack.
T4:12.23  it. It cannot be grasped by the singular consciousness. You could  think of this as something which, were it integrated into the thought
D:1.7  prepare and plan. It does not know how to do otherwise. You do not  think you know how to do otherwise.
D:1.19 As you begin this Dialogue, questions naturally arise. You might  think that for the receiver, or transcriber, of this Dialogue, this
D:1.20  of the transcriber of these words were the way for everyone, and  think not that to hear “directly” from the Source is different than
D:2.18  is based on the workings of a split mind and a split mind does not  think clearly.
D:3.17  with me and all that was created and you cannot do so while you  think of me as teacher and yourself as student. While you think of
D:3.17  while you think of me as teacher and yourself as student. While you  think of yourself as a learning being you will still be looking to
D:4.5  and any arguments you would cite about the heinous crimes of some.  Think instead of prison simply becoming a way of life for those who
D:4.12  not be beyond your belief. Despite the differences in what you see,  think, and feel, there is but one external divine pattern that
D:4.16  divine pattern. The ego is one such system. It may seem peculiar to  think of the ego as a system, and we have heretofore referred to both
D:5.6  was created in order to show—to teach—that joining is the way.  Think of the word desire and its association with sex. To desire
D:5.8  the becoming it would need to take on the properties of the truth.  Think of the ego again as an example here. The ego but seemed to be
D:5.13  and this is not needed now. The desire for such is a desire to  think through once again the meaning of everything and to have a tool
D:5.18 Yet what you  think imprisons you is also what I am addressing here. Release
D:5.20  what was once a prison may no longer be a prison! If you continue to  think of your body as a prison, if you continue to think of your
D:5.20  you continue to think of your body as a prison, if you continue to  think of your environment, your mind, and time as a prison, how can
D:6.6  and what exists as inanimate or non-living form. While you might  think this is an easily drawn distinction—and it is—it is not
D:6.8  of economics and science—the systems—in short, of what you  think governs you.
D:6.14  with you. So let us begin with a suspension of belief in what you  think you know about the body, in what science would tell you about
D:6.16  about the time of discovery that is before you. Calling what you  think you know into question is not a call to return to uncertainty,
D:6.17 If you  think of the “old” as a world in which an attitude of “if this, then
D:6.19 When a person who has exhibited healthy habits get sick, you  think it is unfair. When a person who has exhibited unhealthy habits
D:6.19  When a person who has exhibited unhealthy habits gets sick, you  think, even if you would not say, that they “did it to themselves” or
D:7.16  Your envisioning too is bound to time and that is why so many of you  think of envisioning as envisioning the future. Envisioning is less
D:7.28  far from the building in which you dwell. What I ask you to do is to  think of these areas as the territory of your body, and to remember
D:8.2  of not being bound by this constraint. In all of your life, you can  think of no ability you have not achieved through learning. And yet
D:8.4 You might  think of this ability that existed prior to the time of learning as
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 Source of
D:8.9  means of thinking. What has been learned will become an ability to  think wholeheartedly, or with mind and heart in union, and then that
D:9.2  of what imprisons you, only to have it later suggested that what you  think imprisons you may not be what imprisons you at all. What you
D:9.2  think imprisons you may not be what imprisons you at all. What you  think is what imprisons you.
D:9.3 You continue to  think that your desire to know who you are calls you to think about
D:9.3  continue to think that your desire to know who you are calls you to  think about who you are and in that thinking to come up with a
D:9.12  and received. They are surprising and pleasing in nature. You may  think that they are the result of learning, of thoughts you have
D:9.12  of thoughts you have contemplated and struggled with. You may  think that all of your previous learning and thinking merely resulted
D:10.3 You  think that the use you put these givens to, what you do with them,
D:10.3  unique and individual accomplishment. Such it is. But when you also  think that it is your hard work and diligence, your effort and
D:10.3  and struggle, that bring the expression of these givens forward, you  think in error and limit your expression in much the same ways that
D:10.4  is not of union but of the individual self. You may feel that to  think of this in any other way will leave you with no individual,
D:11.2  example can you not see the fallacy inherent in all the others? To  think of these Dialogues in this way, dear brothers and sisters, is
D:11.2  Dialogues in this way, dear brothers and sisters, is insane. To  think of the thought or idea of God by which you were created as the
D:11.2  of information from whom another is capable of taking notes? You  think it is only the content of your thoughts that differentiate you
D:11.2  content of your thoughts that differentiate you from others. Do you  think the same is true of you and me? It is that you think that
D:11.2  others. Do you think the same is true of you and me? It is that you  think that differentiates you from me, not our content, which is one
D:11.3 You might imagine that the way you  think is so different from the way I think that they are
D:11.3  might imagine that the way you think is so different from the way I  think that they are incomparable. But thinking is not an accurate
D:11.6 Let me ask you a question. Do you  think desire will still be with you when you have achieved what you
D:11.13  with the vision of unity you become as I was during life. You do not  think your way through life, but instead draw your knowing forth from
D:12.4  what occurs here. You have “entered into” this dialogue. While you  think these words come to you through the written form of this book,
D:12.11  I am not saying that your ego is still at work because you still  think in the same way as before. I am about to make the two main
D:12.11  of the separated self and does not serve you. The way in which you  think may seem vastly improved since the ego ruled or may seem only
D:12.17  I have said about your way of thinking being insane is true. You  think it is perfectly sane to go through life without knowing
D:13.9  come to the knowing of the state of unity alone. Why then would you  think that you could come to full expression of what you have come to
D:16.9  between the way that is and what is lies in choice. While you  think that you can choose to stand apart from God, apart from Love,
D:16.9  to be who you are, without allowing for self-expression. You might  think that you can be simply because you exist and that as long as
D:16.9  because you are being something. You are alive. You have form. You  think and feel. You have even been told that you would cease to be
D:16.9  you would cease to be without the existence of spirit, and so, you  think, you must at least be. You are, after all, called a human being.
D:17.14  asked of you earlier, for they are even more pertinent now. Do you  think desire will still be with you when you have achieved what you
D:Day1.11 Many people now are discovering the power of healing. Some  think this power comes from one source and some from another. You may
D:Day1.11  this power comes from one source and some from another. You may  think that, as long as the power is called forth, it matters not the
D:Day1.11  called forth, it matters not the name by which it is called. You may  think that it all comes from the same source, regardless of what the
D:Day1.11  to your needs of healing, or you may make many choices. You may  think these choices matter not, but only the power of the healer.
D:Day3.9  for your life will assist you in living abundantly will cause you to  think, “I doubt it.” Or, “I'll believe it when I see it.” You might
D:Day3.9  think, “I doubt it.” Or, “I'll believe it when I see it.” You might  think spirituality can assist you in living a more simple life and
D:Day3.11  money or abundance is not a “given” for all, but only for a few, you  think of it much like the “given” of natural gifts or talents, the
D:Day3.14 To  think in such terms, and then to see such thoughts as even capable of
D:Day3.14  thoughts as even capable of having spiritual value, is something you  think of as insane. There seems no remedy, and so you would rather
D:Day3.14  knowing may even say to yourself as you read them that you no longer  think in such a way, they are there in the learned pattern and you
D:Day3.20  is a power that is denied, rarely acknowledged, seldom spoken of.  Think you not that the shame that comes from heartaches or mistaken
D:Day3.21  you would consider a shaming act. You would fear that they might  think you want something from them and you would suffer
D:Day3.22  upon having the “means” to pursue it, and few of you truly  think that money would not solve most of your problems. Even those of
D:Day3.22  most of your problems. Even those of you on this spiritual path  think money is among the greatest limits to what you can accomplish,
D:Day3.29 You  think abundance is the most difficult thing to demonstrate, when it
D:Day3.29  difficult thing to demonstrate, when it is actually the easiest. You  think you could learn what is for you the most difficult type of
D:Day3.29  learn how to make money, or in other words, to have abundance. You  think you could more easily find love than money, even those of you
D:Day3.30  unworried about your health until the slightest pain makes you  think of cancer. In this same way, there are not any of you, those
D:Day3.32 And so you might  think, here, of what has brought you joy. A home, a garden, a musical
D:Day3.33 You might  think here too that money made from what you love to do has a
D:Day3.33  to do has a different quality than money earned from toil. You might  think that money earned from what you love to do is the answer, just
D:Day3.33  earned from what you love to do is the answer, just as you might  think that money spent on the more lasting pleasures such as the
D:Day3.39  you had known before. We spoke of this as thoughts you did not  think. We spoke of these thoughts you did not think coming with
D:Day3.39  thoughts you did not think. We spoke of these thoughts you did not  think coming with authority and certainty, a certainty you had
D:Day3.40  but since for most of you it has arisen as thoughts you did not  think, if you were to make an association in regards to entry, you
D:Day3.40  of the mind and heart joined in unity. It would be more true to  think of this joining as creating a portal of access, a new source of
D:Day3.54  and receive it, express it and share it. And yet you continue to  think that if you had money or abundance, you would accept and
D:Day3.57  is an active function. It is something given you to do. You  think it is difficult, but it is only difficult until it becomes easy.
D:Day3.58 While you  think of acceptance as just another word, another concept, another
D:Day4.6  breathing, yet neither do you, under normal circumstances, have to  think about breathing. You might begin to think of all the “givens”
D:Day4.6  circumstances, have to think about breathing. You might begin to  think of all the “givens” of unity as those things that require no
D:Day4.7  time of language that constitutes your ideas about what it means to  think. In evolutionary terms this was true as well. Despite the
D:Day4.7  has not left any of you. You all begin life without the ability to  think in the terms you now associate almost exclusively with
D:Day4.9  identify the world in the same way—the way that has been taught— think that you have succeeded in learning, is the cause of the
D:Day4.15  the mind. We have spoken of thoughts that arise that you didn't  think. We have spoken of talents that were not learned. We have
D:Day4.29  like breathing, something that is natural to you until you begin to  think about it. Realize how unnatural your breathing becomes when it
D:Day4.31 In practical terms, you might  think of this as a disengagement from the details. Thinking is about
D:Day4.35 You might  think of the mountain top as symbolic of a place close to God. If God
D:Day4.35  touch God, stretch just a little more and reach heaven. You thus may  think of this time on the mountain as a time of getting in touch with
D:Day4.35  with your own access to God, your own access to heaven. You might  think that if you stretch your idea of reality just a little bit
D:Day4.42 Smile with me now, as you  think of yourself in this elevated place. You are still the self of
D:Day4.50  odd timing as you have just been asked to accept your anger. Just  think. Anger was discussed rather casually alongside accepting me,
D:Day4.50  to accept. Accept all. You do not have to hesitate here because you  think you are still angry, or think you are still depressed. When you
D:Day4.50  not have to hesitate here because you think you are still angry, or  think you are still depressed. When you hesitate you have not
D:Day4.52  that fear is all that needs to be left behind. You will still  think you have more to learn because you are angry, depressed, in a
D:Day4.54 You but  think that you can wholeheartedly desire to move forward with love
D:Day4.55  Think a moment of the story of the prodigal son. All that the
D:Day4.55  son was asked to do was to accept his own homecoming. Do you  think he would have considered himself perfect as he approached his
D:Day4.57  you have reached some ideal of enlightenment or what you might  think of as perfection. If this were asked of you, how many of you
D:Day5.13  of giving and receiving as one within your own heart. You might  think of access in the same way—as enabling you to realize that you
D:Day5.25  the example of how your breathing becomes unnatural when you  think about it, and contrast this with the increase in awareness of
D:Day5.26  is entering you, and it does not imply entry without exit. When you  think of breathing, you may think of inhaling as taking in air, and
D:Day5.26  not imply entry without exit. When you think of breathing, you may  think of inhaling as taking in air, and of air as something that is
D:Day5.26  that is not “of” you. But the air you breathe is “of” you. You may  think of the air you exhale as being more “of” you, but there is no
D:Day6.22  remove yourself from life! If this were required it would be done!  Think not that I cannot arrange the ideal environment for our
D:Day6.23  Think a moment about a new job or some other endeavor in which you
D:Day6.25  as well as conversationalists, is not an erroneous way to  think of our relationship. We are both friends and co-workers.
D:Day6.30  you find yourself. There is no time to wait while you learn, or  think you learn, the qualities that will allow this. This is the
D:Day6.31  no call to be discouraged. This is not delay, but what you might  think of as trial by fire. Be encouraged rather than discouraged that
D:Day8.3  This is not about acceptance of what you do not like. Do you really  think you are being called to accept “normal life?” Called to accept
D:Day8.15  your reference, that it is you who are not as “advanced” as you  think you are.
D:Day8.16  but you will not want to confuse the term and the condition. You may  think that taking away the type of certainty associated with the
D:Day8.18  feelings you will tend also to deny the feelings of others. You will  think that you know the real from the unreal, truth from illusion,
D:Day8.19  prone to acceptance of that which you “like,” to those feelings you  think of as “good” feelings, you are still prone to non-acceptance of
D:Day8.26  you are used to hiding the self of potential, the future self you  think you can only dream of being. The ego-self was the self you felt
D:Day9.6  of expression. No one can block the freedom of what your mind would  think or heart would feel. But take away the ability to express what
D:Day9.6  would feel. But take away the ability to express what the mind would  think or heart would feel, and freedom is no more. Yet it is not an
D:Day9.32  It begins with the simple realization that you do still desire, or  think you desire, learning challenges of this type and with the
D:Day10.6  in your feelings will lead to confidence in your Self. While you  think it is your access to unity that will be the more difficult to
D:Day10.7  have doubted your intuition and had something occur that made you  think back and wish that you had not doubted it.
D:Day10.11  different than rational thought, as are feelings of all kinds. You  think of feelings either as that which comes to you through your five
D:Day10.14  and the ability to act. To “know” before you act is wise. But to  think that doubting your feelings or seeking outside assurances of
D:Day10.23 I will still be with you to point the way, but if you can cease to  think of this as the wisdom of an outside source, if you can hear it
D:Day10.23  the wisdom of an outside source, if you can hear it and feel it and  think of it as a true dialogue, a true sharing in relationship in
D:Day10.26  dislike—why we have spoken, in short, of the feelings you would  think would have no place within the ideal self or the elevated 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
D:Day10.27  of a person whom you know who has died, you would not be likely to  think of them much differently than they were in life, even while you
D:Day10.28  you have thought of him or her since death. Do you not occasionally  think that this person would be happy or sad to see you in the state
D:Day10.28  would be happy or sad to see you in the state you are in when you  think of them? Do you not at times shake your head and think that a
D:Day10.28  in when you think of them? Do you not at times shake your head and  think that a dead loved one was lucky not to have lived to see the
D:Day10.28  know they would not have liked it? And do you not, in all honesty,  think that even in whatever form or lack of form they now occupy,
D:Day10.30  Consciousness is about what you are aware of, not about what you  think. And you are very much aware of your feelings.
D:Day10.31  it was this. I was an advocate for all to know their power. Do you  think that my advocacy was a social statement for the times in which
D:Day13.3  oneness of the Holy One who is both one—somewhat in the way you  think of the individual self—and All.
D:Day15.16  remained within them that Christ-consciousness is a form of “group  think.” Never will you feel more like an individual than when you are
D:Day16.4  feelings. These manifestations come to you to prove to you what you  think you know—that you are responsible for the sorry circumstances
D:Day16.5  all kinds. These manifestations also come to you to prove what you  think you know—that others, or the world in general, are to blame
D:Day19.2  and denial. Although this is overly simplified, you might  think of this as the artist being content in creating art, the
D:Day20.4 When you read what has been written here, you perhaps  think this is a contradiction, for surely you have been told much
D:Day21.6  a channel and that you are constantly receiving. You still perhaps  think in terms of receiving meaning that there is something given

T1:1.8 You are a  thinking being. This cannot be denied nor should it be. Thus a Course
T1:2.1  needed for you to disengage the ego-mind that produced the type of  thinking that needs to come to an end. This ending is but a beginning
T1:2.6 The so-called  thinking of the ego-mind was so tyrannical that its use throughout
T1:2.6  that it left you unable to respond purely to anything. The so-called  thinking of the ego-mind could be likened to chitchat, background
T1:2.12  is but relationship between Creator and Created. The new means of  thinking is referred to here as the “art” of thought in order to call

T2:1.14 This is a first step in the change in  thinking that needs to occur. It is an elementary step and one easily

T2:3.6  then your idea of the Christ is still based on an old way of  thinking, as are your ideas of learning.
T2:4.2  you stand apart from it and affect it not. This is consistent to the  thinking that would tell you that you are at the mercy of fate. Fate
T2:4.3  and A Course of Love work hand-in-hand because the change of  thinking taught within A Course in Miracles was a change of thinking
T2:4.3  of thinking taught within A Course in Miracles was a change of  thinking about yourself. It attempted to dislodge the ego-mind that

T2:12.1 Miracles are thoughts and I am the corrector of false  thinking. You have been made ready for this correction and your

T4:1.25  before they allow themselves to directly experience the truth,  thinking still that the experience of the truth will exclude much
T4:2.10  consistent with the idea of unity. If you proceed into this new time  thinking that this new time will separate you from others, or cause
T4:2.19  future outcome rather than in terms of what already is. This type of  thinking will not serve the new or allow you full awareness of the
T4:2.23  of this denial now, for it is still evident in the pattern of your  thinking. We have spoken of this within the text of A Course of Love

D:5.11  but to accept revelation. You will not arrive at the truth through  thinking about what everything means. This is the old way that led to
D:6.19  habits. Again we could go into countless examples of this type of  thinking, but the examples matter not except to make you see that
D:6.21  of ideas of placing blame does, is take it one step away from the  thinking of the “if this, then that” thought system we are leaving
D:8.2  it seems too impossible, too “good” to be true. You are too used to  thinking of yourself as a learning being to truly experience the

D:9.3  to know who you are calls you to think about who you are and in that  thinking to come up with a definition of who you are, a truth of who
D:9.10 Just as the “Art of Thought” led to abilities beyond the  thinking of the ego-mind, the beliefs of the “Treatise on Unity” were
D:9.12  struggled with. You may think that all of your previous learning and  thinking merely resulted eventually in a new idea being birthed, but
D:10.4 Now you might be  thinking, here, that while these givens come from the realm of unity,
D:11.3  is so different from the way I think that they are incomparable. But  thinking is not an accurate description of what I do, or of what
D:12.1 In the terms in which you are used to  thinking, terms that have put the body at the center of your universe

D:12.11  the ego, that is still with you. The second point is that although  thinking does not serve you, you do have, right now, and have always
D:12.13 One of the primary ideas that will assist you in leaving patterns of  thinking behind is the idea that thought as we are describing it, the
D:12.16  reaction to this truth, or simple doubt that arose within your  thinking, but regardless of this fading of your certainty, you still
D:12.16  about yourself—is true. If another challenges you, or if your own  thinking challenges you, doubt is quick to arise simply because you
D:12.17  more aware than ever before that what I have said about your way of  thinking being insane is true. You think it is perfectly sane to go
D:14.6  of questions such as these is that they can circumvent the usual  thinking you would apply to these situations. They can circumvent the
D:15.16 You have been prepared for this by the realization that your  thinking mind will no longer be necessary as your access to unity, or
D:16.18  still sees in forms and symbols. This kind of image may leave you  thinking that you are “acting” as if you have changed, while even
D:17.15  It is because you have now turned to your heart, instead of to your  thinking, that you feel both fulfillment and desire. But my earlier
D:Day3.9  agitated, to go back and forth between the general and specific,  thinking of both your own lack in life and that of those whose lack
D:Day3.31  of you who would feel prepared to let it bring you joy would err in  thinking that it could. How many times has what you thought would
D:Day4.6  think of all the “givens” of unity as those things that require no  thinking.
D:Day4.7 Learning was not meant to be linked with  thinking. Again I'll draw your attention to the learning of
D:Day4.7  to think in the terms you now associate almost exclusively with  thinking, the terms of having thoughts, or words, in your mind.
D:Day4.8 Even after the onset of language, children continue to learn without  thinking. Does this not sound odd, foreign to you? And yet this is
D:Day4.29  your breathing becomes when it becomes the focus of your thought.  Thinking about breathing imposes an unnatural constraint upon a
D:Day4.30  Thinking, in this time beyond learning, could be rightly seen as a
D:Day4.30  as a constraint you but try to impose on all that is natural. Your  thinking, since it is a product of learning, does nothing but attempt
D:Day4.30  of all that exists within you in the state of unity, is an end to  thinking as you know it.
D:Day4.31  terms, you might think of this as a disengagement from the details.  Thinking is about details. I am imparting to you the key to abundance
D:Day4.31  with the end of the time of learning. You, on the other hand, are  thinking, yearning, grasping for the details. You would like to know
D:Day4.37 This is a longing that carries with it the desire to go beyond  thinking, the desire to go beyond words, the desire to go beyond
D:Day4.51  before full acceptance of what is would be confusing. You who are  thinking that you have not moved through the stages to full
D:Day5.21  you seek. Imagine this wisdom not as being stopped by the layers of  thinking and feeling that we used the onion to illustrate, but as a
D:Day5.22  by layers of defenses. No longer will it meet the road-block of your  thinking, your effort, your attempts to figure out how to do it and
D:Day5.25  as well as you focus on your access to unity. Focus does not mean  thinking. Focus does not mean learning. Remember the example of how
D:Day6.14  desire not to have to focus on the details of daily life. You may be  thinking that the ease so often spoken of in our conversations would
D:Day6.25  Thinking of our relationship as that of colleagues as well as
D:Day8.7 Now you may have been  thinking—again, at least subconsciously—that your “real” Self has
D:Day8.29 Remove all  thinking that says that you can err in following your feelings. This
D:Day8.29  that says that you can err in following your feelings. This is the  thinking of the old thought system, not the new. This is thinking
D:Day8.29  This is the thinking of the old thought system, not the new. This is  thinking comprised of the time-delay of the time of learning—of a
D:Day10.29 And do you not, when  thinking of idolized spiritual leaders, see them as world leaders as
D:Day32.5  broader terms. You might think of God as you think of yourself. When  thinking of the ideas put forth here, you might think of God deciding

Tx:6.86  major step toward fundamental change. Yet it is still a lesson in  thought reversal since it implies that there is something you must be
Tx:7.2  created you, the Kingdom could not increase through its own creative  thought. Creation would therefore be limited, and you would not be
Tx:7.2  and you would not be co-creators with God. As God's creative  Thought proceeds from Him to you, so must your creative thought
Tx:7.2  creative Thought proceeds from Him to you, so must your creative  thought proceed from you to your creations. Only in this way can

Tx:7.29  perfectly clear in thought, because it is a reflection of perfect  Thought. It sees only brothers, because it sees only in its own
Tx:7.53  one. This is part of the Law of Creation and therefore governs all  thought.
Tx:7.55  do not believe you can do this, you have denied the power of your  thought and thus rendered it powerless in your belief.
Tx:7.62 When you believe what God does not know, your  thought seems to contradict His, and this makes it appear as if

Tx:7.81 Perceive any part of the ego's  thought system as wholly insane, wholly delusional, and wholly
Tx:7.93  fullness of its Creator. Fullness is extension. The ego's whole  thought system blocks extension and thus blocks your only function.

Tx:8.44  at the time. He was ashamed to return to his father because he  thought he had hurt him. Yet when he came home, the father welcomed
Tx:8.48  unwilling to will with God, you are not thinking. God's Will is  thought. It cannot be contradicted by thought. God does not
Tx:8.48  thinking. God's Will is thought. It cannot be contradicted by  thought. God does not contradict Himself, and His Sons, who are
Tx:8.48  who are like Him, cannot contradict themselves or Him. Yet their  thought is so powerful that they can even imprison the mind of God's
Tx:8.59 Remember that the Bible says, “The Word (or  thought) was made flesh.” Strictly speaking this is impossible, since
Tx:8.59  merely appear to exist, just as different orders of miracles do.  Thought cannot be made into flesh except by belief, since thought is

Tx:8.59  into flesh except by belief, since thought is not physical. Yet  thought is communication, for which the body can be used. This is
Tx:8.66 You are not limited by the body, and  thought cannot be made flesh. Yet mind can be manifested through
Tx:8.68  wholeness. The power of wholeness is extension. Do not arrest your  thought in this world, and you will open your mind to creation in God.
Tx:8.87 The Bible enjoins you to be perfect, to heal all errors, to take no  thought of the body as separate, and to accomplish all things in my
Tx:8.89  healing means anything. The re-establishing of meaning in a chaotic  thought system is the only way to heal it. We have said that your
Tx:8.108  time, however, if he were healed physically, the threat to his  thought system would be considerably more fearful to him than its
Tx:9.43  ask, “Who granted it?” The question is meaningless within the ego's  thought system, because it opens the whole thought system to
Tx:9.43  within the ego's thought system, because it opens the whole  thought system to question.
Tx:9.44  therefore, is to deny all knowledge and keep the ego's whole  thought system intact. You cannot retain part of a thought system,
Tx:9.44  ego's whole thought system intact. You cannot retain part of a  thought system, because it can be questioned only at its
Tx:9.44  stand. The Holy Spirit judges against the reality of the ego's  thought system merely because He knows its foundation is not true.
Tx:9.78  losing this?] Look calmly at the logical conclusion of the ego's  thought system and judge whether its offering is really what you
Tx:10.1  that this must be true. Neither God nor the ego proposes a partial  thought system. Each is internally consistent, but they are
Tx:10.2  premise, which is carefully hidden in the dark cornerstone of its  thought system. And either the ego, which you made, is your father,
Tx:10.2  And either the ego, which you made, is your father, or its whole  thought system will not stand.
Tx:10.3  by extension. The cornerstone of God's creation is you, for His  thought system is light. Remember the rays that are there unseen. The
Tx:10.3  rays that are there unseen. The more you approach the center of His  thought system, the clearer the light becomes. The closer you come to
Tx:10.3  light becomes. The closer you come to [the foundation of] the ego's  thought system, the darker and more obscure becomes the way. Yet even
Tx:10.3  fearlessly with you and hold it up to the foundation of the ego's  thought system bravely. Be willing to judge it with perfect honesty.
Tx:10.5  knowledge, the foundation on which God will help you build again the  thought system which you share with Him. Not one stone you place
Tx:10.16  truly want. Every attack is a step away from this, and every healing  thought brings it closer. The Son of God has both Father and Son
Tx:10.17  you accomplish speaks to you of the Fatherhood of God. Every healing  thought which you accept, either from your brother or in your own
Tx:10.17  your own mind, teaches you that you are God's Son. In every hurtful  thought you hold, wherever you perceive it, lies the denial of God's
Tx:10.29  For what is unlike God cannot enter His Mind because it was not His  Thought and therefore does not belong to Him. And your minds must
Tx:10.39  cannot be dangerous. We are ready to look more closely at the ego's  thought system because together we have the lamp that will dispel it,
Tx:10.54  what it has made real, the ego proceeds to the next step in its  thought system—that error is real, and truth is error.
Tx:10.56  strong to the insane. For reasoning ends at its beginning, and no  thought system transcends its source. Yet reasoning without meaning
Tx:10.58  for your vigilance. Everything you perceive is a witness to the  thought system you want to be true. Every brother has the power to
Tx:10.70 Every loving  thought that the Son of God ever had is eternal. Those which his mind
Tx:10.76 You do not know the meaning of anything you perceive. Not one  thought you hold is wholly true. The recognition of this is your
Tx:10.84  Son of God, who is in no way separate from His Father, whose every  thought is as loving as the Thought of His Father by which He was
Tx:10.84  separate from His Father, whose every thought is as loving as the  Thought of His Father by which He was created. Be not deceived in
Tx:11.3  judgment, it requires no effort at all on your part. Every loving  thought is true. Everything else is an appeal for healing and help.
Tx:11.70  received anything else, it is because you have looked within and  thought you saw the power to give something else within yourself.
Tx:11.81  nor could His Son receive it. You were redeemed the instant you  thought you had deserted Him.
Tx:11.86  laid in the ground and seem to be no more. Not one of them but has  thought that God is cruel.
Tx:12.7  of the time you dismiss it, but you do not dismiss the ego's  thought system. You have seen its results and you still lack
Tx:12.17  which you may fear to uncover. For He will heal every little  thought which you have kept to hurt you and cleanse it of its
Tx:13.4  being in the mind of both and knowing that mind is one. He is a  Thought of God, and God has given Him to you because He has no
Tx:13.27  his Father loves him. And it will seem incredible that he has ever  thought his Father loved him not and looked upon him as condemned.
Tx:13.50  and give and are everything, and all this has been denied, your  thought system is closed off and wholly separated from the truth.
Tx:13.51 Seeing is always outward. Were your thoughts wholly of you, the  thought system which you made would be forever dark. The thoughts
Tx:13.53  is not indirect, but He must introduce the simple truth into a  thought system which has become so twisted and so complex that you
Tx:13.73  you can make decisions by yourself or for yourself alone. No  thought of God's Son can be separate or isolated in its effects.
Tx:13.87  what is not there has been removed from the disordered mind that  thought it was. This state, and only this, must you attain with

Tx:15.4  the ego's teaching is without the fear of death. Yet if death were  thought of merely as an end to pain, would it be feared? We have
Tx:15.4  would it be feared? We have seen this strange paradox in the ego's  thought system before, but never so clearly as here. For the ego must
Tx:15.12 Whenever you are tempted to be dispirited by the  thought of how long it would take to change your mind so completely,
Tx:15.42 Every  thought you would keep hidden shuts communication off because you
Tx:15.42  being the acceptance of the single will that governs all  thought.
Tx:15.53  have no need to look without and snatch it guiltily from where you  thought it was.
Tx:15.60  the idea of love in you and unite this idea with the mind that  thought it and could not relinquish it. By holding it within
Tx:15.96  that sacrifice gets nothing. Sacrifice is so essential to your  thought system that salvation apart from sacrifice means nothing to
Tx:15.99  than look at it. For if God would demand total sacrifice of you, you  thought it safer to project Him outward and away from you and not
Tx:15.101  of safety. Do not try longer to keep apart your thoughts and the  Thought that has been given you. When they are brought together and
Tx:15.102  Who is there already, by recognizing that His Host is One, and no  thought alien to His Oneness can abide with Him there. Love must be
Tx:16.3  gently aside and let the healing be done for you. Keep but one  thought in mind and do not lose sight of it, however tempted you may
Tx:16.21  will consider what you have taught and how alien it is to what you  thought you knew, you will be compelled to recognize that your
Tx:16.21  be compelled to recognize that your Teacher came from beyond your  thought system and so could look upon it fairly and perceive it was
Tx:16.21  untrue. And He must have done so from the basis of a very different  thought system and one with nothing in common with yours. For
Tx:16.22  yourself accordingly. Cause and effect are very clear in the ego's  thought system because all your learning has been directed towards
Tx:16.52  religion of the separation and of the total context in which it is  thought to occur. The central theme in its litany to sacrifice is
Tx:16.57  Separation is only the decision not to know yourself. Its whole  thought system is a carefully contrived learning experience designed
Tx:16.66  is really part of you. And you cannot keep part of the  thought system which taught you it was real and understand the
Tx:16.66  the thought system which taught you it was real and understand the  Thought that really knows what you are. You have allowed the
Tx:16.66  the Thought that really knows what you are. You have allowed the  Thought of your reality to enter your minds, and because you invited
Tx:17.25  the same. For you can never choose except between God and the ego.  Thought systems are but true or false, and all their attributes come
Tx:17.31  means if you would be restored to sanity. The insane protect their  thought systems, but they do so insanely. And all their defenses

Tx:17.35  the gift. Be not deceived by the most superficial aspects of this  thought system, for these aspects enclose the whole, complete in

Tx:18.84  in God's keeping and needs no guide. Yet this wild and delusional  thought needs help because in its delusions it thinks it is the Son
Tx:18.89  heavy and opaque, impenetrable, and a real foundation for the ego's  thought system. Its thinness and transparency are not apparent until
Tx:18.93  washed in the waters of forgiveness, and cleansed of every evil  thought you had laid upon it. Here there is no attack upon the Son of
Tx:19.6  impossible to attain, for part of it is sought through the body,  thought of as a means for seeking out reality through attack, while
Tx:19.6  This will not harm the body, but it will keep the delusional  thought system in the mind.
Tx:19.8  are always connected, as is truth. Each is united, a complete  thought system, but totally disconnected to each other. Where there
Tx:19.16  being kept in prison or limited in any way except by the mind that  thought it. For it remains joined to its source, which is its jailor
Tx:19.21  indefensible to the ego. The idea of sin is wholly sacrosanct to its  thought system and quite unapproachable except through reverence and
Tx:19.79  that an idea leaves not its source. And death is the result of the  thought we call the ego as surely as life is the result of the
Tx:19.79  the thought we call the ego as surely as life is the result of the  Thought of God.
Tx:19.86  of salvation is carefully guarded by love, preserved from every  thought that would attack it and quietly made ready to fulfill the
Tx:19.103  Christ Who stands beside you. How holy and how beautiful He is! You  thought He sinned because you cast the veil of sin upon Him to hide
Tx:20.10  and hear this carefully, nor think it but a dream—a careless  thought to play with or a toy you would pick up from time to time and
Tx:20.23  asked, and it is to his answer that you would adjust. This one wild  thought, fierce in its arrogance and yet so tiny and so meaningless
Tx:20.36  difficulty but will melt away before you reach it. You need take  thought for nothing, careless of everything except the only purpose
Tx:21.3  did not recognize, or walk unharmed through open doorways which they  thought were closed. And so it is with you. You do not see. Your cues
Tx:21.3  recognize, but fail to be aware you can go through the doors you  thought were closed but which stand open before unseeing eyes,
Tx:21.22  happen of itself; simply to recognize again the presence of what you  thought you gave away.
Tx:21.71  to attack his brother or turn upon himself as to remember they  thought they had a common cause.
Tx:21.84  what you will, and you will look on it and think it real. No  thought but has the power to release or kill. And none can leave the
Tx:22.11  you can understand. He is not nurtured by the “something else” you  thought was you. He was not given there, nor was received by anything
Tx:22.14  that instant brought—the recognition that the “something else” you  thought was you is an illusion. And truth came instantly to show you
Tx:22.29 The introduction of reason into the ego's  thought system is the beginning of its undoing. For reason and the
Tx:22.30  correction. For reason sees through errors, telling you what you  thought was real is not. Reason can see the difference between sin
Tx:22.30  because it wants correction. Therefore, it tells you what you  thought was uncorrectable can be corrected, and thus it must have
Tx:22.50  and so easily that you must be convinced, in spite of what you  thought it was, that it is nothing. If you forgive each other, this
Tx:22.58  is released as he beholds his savior in place of the attacker who he  thought was there. Through this releasing is the world released. This
Tx:22.64  and His Son. From loving minds there is no separation. And every  thought in one brings gladness to the other because they are the
Tx:22.64  because they are the same. Joy is unlimited because each shining  thought of love extends its being and creates more of itself. There
Tx:22.64  more of itself. There is no difference anywhere in it, for every  thought is like itself.
Tx:23.6  forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine and everything you once  thought sinful now will be reinterpreted as part of Heaven. How
Tx:23.39  that it seems to be a logical conclusion—a valid step in ordered  thought. The steps to chaos do follow neatly from their starting
Tx:24.19  but only friend to what is real in you. Not one attack you  thought you made on him has taken from him the gift that God would
Tx:24.31  of peace in perfect safety and without the heat and malice of one  thought of specialness to mar your rest. Forgive the Holy One the
Tx:24.39  beheld some sin within your brother and have rejoiced at what you  thought was there. Your specialness seemed safe because of it. And
Tx:24.45  and blessing all the way. His love for God replaces all the fear you  thought you saw within yourself. His holiness shows you Himself in
Tx:24.51  has He failed to lay before you lovingly as yours forever. And no  thought within His Mind is absent from your own. It is His Will you
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. And all
Tx:24.59  with vigilance you never thought to yield and effort that you never  thought to cease. And all this grim determination was for this—you
Tx:24.63  returns to you. All of the love and care, the strong protection, the  thought by day and night, the deep concern, the powerful conviction
Tx:24.68  to anyone who still retains one unlearned lesson in his memory, one  thought with purpose still uncertain, or one wish with a divided aim.
Tx:25.1  not, that He may call to them to come to Him and see Him where they  thought their bodies were. Then will their bodies melt away that they
Tx:25.18  masterpiece. Look at its loveliness, and understand the Mind that  thought it, not in flesh and bones, but in a frame as lovely as
Tx:25.28  of what is given him, then will he see each situation that he  thought before was means to justify his anger turned to an event
Tx:25.34  and light. And in this widening world of light, the darkness they  thought was there is pushed away until it is but distant shadows, far
Tx:25.52  that either God is mad or is this world a place of madness. Not one  Thought of His makes any sense at all within this world. And nothing
Tx:25.52  the truth. If one belief so deeply valued here were true, then every  Thought God ever had is an illusion. And if but one Thought of His is
Tx:25.52  true, then every Thought God ever had is an illusion. And if but one  Thought of His is true, then all beliefs the world gives any meaning
Tx:25.53  Son do not think differently. And it is the agreement of their  thought that makes the Son a co-creator with the mind Whose Thought
Tx:25.53  of their thought that makes the Son a co-creator with the mind Whose  Thought created him. And if he chooses to believe one thought opposed
Tx:25.53  the mind Whose Thought created him. And if he chooses to believe one  thought opposed to truth, he has decided he is not his Father's Son
Tx:25.57  he has seen before and recognizes as the world in which he lives and  thought he understood before.
Tx:26.19  that cannot be immediately grasped. There is a borderland of  thought which stands between this world and Heaven. It is not a
Tx:26.19  This borderland is just beyond the gate of Heaven. Here is every  thought made pure and wholly simple. Here is sin denied and
Tx:26.35 Yet in each unforgiving act or  thought, in every judgment, and in all belief in sin, is that one
Tx:26.53  the joy this world denies to every aspect of God's Son where sin was  thought to rule. Perhaps you do not see the role forgiveness plays in
Tx:26.72  effects without a cause? And who could fear effects unless he  thought they had been caused and judged disastrous now? Belief in
Tx:27.7  for this world. Its only purpose is to prove guilt real. No worldly  thought or act or feeling has a motivation other than this one. These
Tx:27.25  self perception must extend, and do not overlook the fact that every  thought extends because that is its purpose, being what it really
Tx:27.30  you, for he stands for what is meaningless. He represents a double  thought, where half is canceled out by the remaining half. Yet even
Tx:27.49  release. And happily your brother will perceive the many friends he  thought were enemies.
Tx:27.51 Your healing will extend and will be brought to problems that you  thought were not your own. And it will also be apparent that your
Tx:27.82  the Son of God remembered not to laugh. In his forgetting did the  thought become a serious idea and possible of both accomplishment and
Tx:27.83  ending at its cause. The world you see depicts exactly what you  thought you did. Except that now you think that what you did is being
Tx:27.83  think that what you did is being done to you. The guilt for what you  thought is being placed outside yourself and on a guilty world which
Tx:28.1  long ago. The thoughts that made it are no longer in the mind that  thought of them and loved them for a little while. The miracle but
Tx:28.8  in your mind. Its consequences will indeed seem new because you  thought that you remembered not their Cause. Yet was It never absent
Tx:28.26  lesson it was sent to teach. The lesson is the mind was sick that  thought the body could be sick; projecting out its guilt caused
Tx:29.3  on which you both agreed to keep intact. And violating this was  thought to be a breach of treaty not to be allowed.
Tx:29.18  a thing with power in itself. As something, it can be perceived and  thought to feel and act and hold you in its grasp as prisoner to
Tx:29.32  is there. The peace in you can but be found in him. And every  thought of love you offer him but brings you nearer to your wakening
Tx:29.35  goal that lies beyond forgiveness, you would not keep hold on any  thought, however light the touch of evil on it may appear to be. For
Tx:29.54  thus perceived as real and seen outside the mind. Yet it is still a  thought and cannot leave the mind that is its source. Nor is its form
Tx:29.55  your brother from yourself. A dark and fearful purpose, yet a  thought without the power to change one blade of grass from something
Tx:29.65  are childish dreams. The toys have turned against the child who  thought he made them real. Yet can a dream attack? Or can a toy
Tx:30.1  fear. They are not new to you, but they are more ideas than rules of  thought to you as yet. So now we need to practice them awhile, until
Tx:30.33  created with your glad consent, as you would have it be. And not one  Thought that God has ever had but waited for your blessing to be
Tx:30.42  form that would content you not, but in the whole completely lovely  Thought God holds of you.
Tx:30.43  changelessly. For thoughts endure as long as does the mind that  thought of them. And in the Mind of God there is no ending nor a time
Tx:30.43  thoughts you think are in your mind, as you are in the mind Which  thought of you. And so there are no separate parts in what exists
Tx:30.44  you are sometimes aware of them and sometimes not. An unremembered  thought is born again to you when it returns to your awareness. Yet
Tx:30.44  you forgot it. It was always there, but you were unaware of it. The  Thought God holds of you is perfectly unchanged by your forgetting.
Tx:30.45  They await not birth. They wait for welcome and remembering. The  Thought God holds of you is like a star, unchangeable in an eternal
Tx:30.47 Beyond all idols is the  Thought God holds of you. Completely unaffected by the turmoil and
Tx:30.47  the myriad of forms that fear can take; quite undisturbed, the  Thought God holds of you remains exactly as it always was. Surrounded
Tx:30.47  of its changelessness and of its rest in its eternal home, the  Thought God holds of you has never left the mind of its Creator Whom
Tx:30.48 Where could the  Thought God holds of you exist but where you are? Is your reality a
Tx:30.48  but one. Nor can you be aware of more than one. An idol or the  Thought God holds of you is your reality. Forget not, then, that
Tx:30.50  his “control” of what surrounds him. And he is afraid because he  thought the rules protected him. Now must he learn the boxes and the
Tx:30.50  unsafe. He was mistaken. He misunderstood what made him safe and  thought that it had left.
Tx:30.51  to break the rules you set for it. It never was the thing you  thought. It must appear to break your rules for safety, since the
Tx:30.58 Here, it is  thought that understanding is acquired by attack. There, it is
Tx:30.69  lies in those whose hands are joined. Until they joined, they  thought He was their enemy. But when they joined and shared a
Tx:30.86  purpose for the one who gains and him who loses. There could be no  thought of sacrifice apart from this idea. And it is this idea of
Tx:30.87  They have no purpose. And what they are for cannot be seen. In any  thought of loss, there is no meaning. No one has agreed with you on
Tx:30.89  you are deceived. For everything you see will change, and yet you  thought it real before, and now you think it real again. Reality is
Tx:31.20 Then let us wait an instant and be still, forgetting everything we  thought we heard; remembering how much we do not know. This brother
Tx:31.22 Be very still an instant. Come without all  thought of what you ever learned before and put aside all images you
Tx:31.22  opposition or intent. There will be no attack upon the things you  thought were precious and in need of care. There will be no assault
Tx:31.49  with hatred and distortions born of fear. What is a concept but a  thought to which its maker gives a meaning of his own? Concepts
Tx:31.49  in its shadow, growing in its ways, and finally “maturing” in its  thought. They are ideas of idols painted with the brushes of the
W1:4.3  your thoughts for application of the idea for today, identify each  thought by the central figure or event it contains. For example:
W1:4.4 This  thought about _____ does not mean anything. It is like the things I
W1:4.5 You can also use the idea for a particular  thought which you recognize as harmful. This practice is useful, but
W1:6.3  as before, and the application of the idea to each upsetting  thought uncovered in the search.
W1:8.2 The only wholly true  thought one can hold about the past is that it is not here. To think
W1:8.4  is easier to recognize that, no matter how vividly you may picture a  thought, you are not seeing anything. With as little investment as
W1:10.7 This  thought about _____ does not mean anything. That thought about _____
W1:10.7 This thought about _____ does not mean anything. That  thought about _____ does not mean anything.
W1:10.8 Today's idea can obviously serve for any  thought that distresses you at any time. In addition, five practice
W1:13.8  may take, remind yourself that you are really afraid of such a  thought because of the “vengeance” of the “enemy.” You are not
W1:16.2  to the perception of a whole world can hardly be called idle. Every  thought you have contributes to truth or to illusion; either it
W1:16.3  never being idle, salvation requires that you recognize that every  thought you have brings either peace or war, either love or fear. A
W1:16.3  love or fear. A neutral result is impossible because a neutral  thought is impossible. There is such a temptation to dismiss fear
W1:16.4  so, with eyes closed, and actively seek not to overlook any “little”  thought which tends to elude the search. This is quite difficult
W1:16.4  it is still hard for you not to make artificial distinctions. Every  thought that occurs to you, regardless of the quality which you
W1:16.6 This  thought about _____ is not a neutral thought. That thought about
W1:16.6 This thought about _____ is not a neutral  thought. That thought about _____ is not a neutral thought.
W1:16.6 This thought about _____ is not a neutral thought. That  thought about _____ is not a neutral thought.
W1:16.7 As usual, use today's idea whenever you are aware of a particular  thought which arouses uneasiness. The following form is suggested for
W1:16.8 This  thought about _____ is not a neutral thought, because I have no
W1:16.8 This thought about _____ is not a neutral  thought, because I have no neutral thoughts.
W1:17.1  things because you have no neutral thoughts. It is always the  thought that comes first, despite the temptation to believe that it
W1:19.4 I am not alone in experiencing the effects of this  thought about ___.
W1:23.1  everything else is meaningless. But this way cannot fail. Every  thought you have makes up some segment of the world you see. It is
W1:23.5 The idea for today introduces the  thought that you are not trapped in the world you see, because its
W1:23.8 Hold each attack  thought in mind as you say this, and then dismiss that thought and go
W1:23.8  each attack thought in mind as you say this, and then dismiss that  thought and go on to the next.
W1:25.4  you can make any sense out of the exercises for today, one more  thought is necessary. At the most superficial levels, you do
W1:26.3 The idea for today introduces the  thought that you always attack yourself. If attack thoughts must
W1:26.14 That  thought is an attack upon myself.
W1:31.3  for a moment and then replaced by the next. Try not to establish any  thought of hierarchy among them. Watch them come and go as
W1:32.2  you see in your mind. In today's exercises, try to introduce the  thought that both are in your own imagination.
W1:39.8  undue emphasis on any one in particular, search your mind for every  thought that stands between you and your salvation. Apply the idea
W1:41.2  sorrow and pain and fear and loss because it will heal the mind that  thought these things were real and suffered out of its allegiance to
W1:42.7 Any  thought that is clearly related to the idea is suitable. You may, in
W1:42.7  to mind. If such interferences occur, open your eyes and repeat the  thought once more while looking slowly about; close your eyes, repeat
W1:42.9  thoughts together and teaching you that we are studying a unified  thought system in which nothing is lacking that is needed, and
W1:43.10 Or any  thought related more or less directly to today's idea is suitable.
W1:45.2  He shares His with you. They are the same thoughts because they are  thought by the same Mind. To share is to make alike or to make one.
W1:45.3  are. They must still be there because they cannot have left. What is  thought by the Mind of God is eternal, being part of creation.
W1:45.9  which you have cluttered up your mind are the thoughts which you  thought with God in the beginning. They are there in your mind now,
W1:45.10 Everything that you have  thought since then will change, but the foundation on which they rest
W1:R1.6  first fifty of the ideas we have covered and the cohesiveness of the  thought system to which they are leading you.
W1:51.4  judged it amiss? What I see is the projection of my own errors of  thought. I do not understand what I see because it is not
W1:51.6  I see by assigning this role to it. I have done this to defend a  thought system which has hurt me and which I no longer want. I am
W1:54.3  what I think. If I did not think, I would not exist, because life is  thought. Let me look on the world I see as the representation of my
W1:57.3  make of him. He is where God would have him be, and not where I  thought to hold him prisoner.
W1:61.7  the idea to yourself if your mind wanders away from the central  thought.
W1:63.3  We will begin the day by acknowledging it and close the day with the  thought of it in our awareness. And throughout the day, we will
W1:65.6  thoughts related to the idea for today. Rather, try to uncover each  thought that arises which would interfere with it. Note each one as
W1:65.7 This  thought reflects a goal that is preventing me from accepting my only
W1:68.11  a quick application of today's idea in this form, whenever any  thought of grievance arises against anyone, physically present or not:
W1:69.6 After you have  thought about the importance of what you are trying to do for
W1:69.8  that you are at last joining your will to God's. Try to keep the  thought clearly in mind that what you undertake with God must
W1:74.1 The idea for today can be regarded as the central  thought toward which all our exercises are directed. God's is the
W1:75.15  of the real world which has come to replace the unforgiven world you  thought was real.
W1:76.11 Hear Him Who tells you this, and realize how foolish are the laws you  thought upheld the world you thought you saw. Then listen further. He
W1:76.11  realize how foolish are the laws you thought upheld the world you  thought you saw. Then listen further. He will tell you more. About
W1:78.11  their place. The world and Heaven join in thanking you, for not one  thought of God but must rejoice as you are saved and all the world
W1:91.1  repeating and frequent repeating. It is a central idea in your new  thought system and the perception which it produces. The miracle is
W1:92.2  the body's brain can think. If you but understood the nature of  thought, you could but laugh at this insane idea. It is as if you
W1:92.2  of thought, you could but laugh at this insane idea. It is as if you  thought you held the match that lights the sun and gives it all its
W1:93.7 Salvation requires the acceptance of but one  thought—you are as God created you, not what you made of yourself.
W1:94.1  one statement which makes all forms of temptation powerless; the one  thought which renders the ego silent and entirely undone. You are as
W1:94.11  a giant stride toward your release and a milestone in learning the  thought system which this course sets forth.
W1:96.8  in your mind and offers it the way to peace. Salvation is a  thought you share with God, because His Voice accepted it for you and
W1:96.9 We will attempt today to find this  thought, whose presence in your mind is guaranteed by Him Who speaks
W1:99.1  or different from the Will of God. Thus do both terms imply the  thought of the impossible which has occurred, resulting in a state of
W1:99.4 What joins the separated mind and thoughts with Mind and  thought which are forever one? What plan could hold the truth
W1:99.4  they are undone without attack and with no touch of pain? What but a  thought of God could be this plan by which the never done is
W1:99.6 This is the  thought which brings illusions to the truth, and sees them as
W1:99.6  appearances behind which is the changeless and the sure. This is the  thought which saves and which forgives, because it lays no faith in
W1:99.6  in what is not created by the only Source it knows. This is the  thought whose function is to save by giving you its function as your
W1:99.9  you. All the world of pain is not His Will. Forgive yourself the  thought He wanted this for you. Then let the thought with which He
W1:99.9  Forgive yourself the thought He wanted this for you. Then let the  thought with which He has replaced all your mistakes enter the
W1:99.9  all your mistakes enter the darkened places of your mind which  thought the thoughts that never were His Will.
W1:99.11 Practice His  thought today, and let His Light seek out and lighten up all darkened
W1:100.8 Begin the exercises with the  thought today's idea contains. Then realize your part is to be happy.
W1:100.10  upon in place of Him Who waits that you may look on Him? What little  thought has power to hold you back? What foolish goal can keep you
W1:101.6 There is no sin. We practice with this  thought as often as we can today because it is the basis for today's
W1:104.1 Today's idea continues with the  thought that joy and peace are not but idle dreams. They are your
W1:107.10  made of flesh and blood and bone but were created by the self-same  thought which gave the gift of life to Him as well. He is your
W1:108.1  which is wholly true? Even that one will disappear because the  Thought behind it will appear instead, to take its place. And now we
W1:108.4 Here are both giving and receiving seen as different aspects of one  Thought Whose truth does not depend on which is seen as first, nor
W1:108.4  place. Here it is understood that both occur together, that the  thought remain complete. And in this understanding is the base on
W1:108.4  are perceived from the same frame of reference which unifies this  thought.
W1:108.5 One  Thought, completely unified, will serve to unify all thought. This is
W1:108.5 One Thought, completely unified, will serve to unify all  thought. This is the same as saying one correction will suffice for
W1:108.6  proved it always works in every circumstance where it is tried, the  thought behind it can be generalized to other areas of doubt and
W1:108.6  vision. And from there it will extend and finally arrive at the one  thought Which underlies them all.
W1:109.1  although we seem to look on danger and on sorrow. And we have the  thought that will answer our asking with what we request.
W1:109.2 “I rest in God.” This  thought will bring to you the rest and quiet, peace and stillness,
W1:109.2  and the safety and the happiness you seek. “I rest in God.” This  thought has power to wake the sleeping truth in you, whose vision
W1:109.2  who ever came and yet will come to linger for a while. Here is the  thought in which the Son of God is born again, to recognize himself.
W1:109.3 “I rest in God.” Completely undismayed this  thought will carry you through storms and strife, past misery and
W1:109.11  we give today. We give to those unborn and those passed by, to every  Thought of God, and to the Mind in Which these Thoughts were born and
W1:110.1 We will repeat today's idea from time to time. For this one  thought would be enough to save you and the world if you believed
W1:110.3  this has not occurred if you remain as God created you. You need no  thought but just this one to let redemption come to light the world
W1:110.4 In this one  thought is all the past undone; the present saved to quietly extend
W1:R3.11  silence and in peace. Then turn to other things, but try to keep the  thought with you and let it serve to help you keep your peace
W1:R3.13 Each day's review assignment will conclude with a restatement of the  thought to use each hour and the one to be applied on each half hour
W1:123.1  We have come to gentler pathways and to smoother roads. There is no  thought of turning back and no implacable resistance to the truth. A
W1:123.2  in the dark alone. Be grateful He has saved you from the self you  thought you made to take the place of Him and His creation. Give Him
W1:124.1  with God and with the universe, we go our way rejoicing, with the  thought that God Himself goes everywhere with us.
W1:124.6  can ever be denied to those who know that they are one with God. No  thought of theirs but has the power to heal all forms of suffering in
W1:124.8  Sometime today, whenever it seems best, devote a half an hour to the  thought that you are one with God. This is our first attempt at an
W1:124.10  within your mind and waiting to be found. You will remember then the  thought to which you gave this half an hour, thankfully aware no time
W1:126.1  alien to the ego and the thinking of the world, is crucial to the  thought reversal which this course will bring about. If you believed
W1:126.9  twice today to the attempt to understand today's idea. It is the  thought by which forgiveness takes its proper place in your
W1:126.9  forgiveness takes its proper place in your priorities. It is the  thought that will release your mind from every bar to what
W1:127.10  its blessing upon all who come to learn to cast aside the world they  thought was made in hate to be love's enemy. Now are they all made
W1:128.1  way, nor anything at all that serves to give you joy. Believe this  thought, and you are saved from years of misery, from countless
W1:128.1  that turn to bitter ashes of despair. No one but must accept this  thought as true, if he would leave this world behind and soar beyond
W1:128.5 Today we practice letting go all  thought of values we have given to the world. We leave it free of
W1:129.1 This is the  thought which follows from the one we practiced yesterday. You cannot
W1:129.2  world. Perhaps you will concede there is no loss in letting go all  thought of value here. The world you see is merciless indeed,
W1:130.7  today in thanks and gratitude we gladly give five minutes to the  thought which ends all compromise and doubt and go beyond them all as
W1:131.4  free to choose a goal that lies beyond the world and every worldly  thought and one which comes to you from an idea relinquished yet
W1:131.13 I ask to see a different world and think a different kind of  thought from those I made. The world I seek I did not make alone. The
W1:132.2  his mind, and all his thoughts change with it. Now the source of  thought has shifted, for to change your mind means you have changed
W1:132.2  means you have changed the source of all ideas you think or ever  thought or yet will think.
W1:132.3 You free the past from what you  thought before. You free the future from all ancient thoughts of
W1:132.4  beliefs. Death strikes it everywhere because you hold the bitter  thought of death within your mind. The world is nothing in itself.
W1:132.7 There is no world! This is the central  thought the course attempts to teach. Not everyone is ready to accept
W1:132.9  your own imagining, then you can loose it from all things you ever  thought it was by merely changing all the thoughts that gave it these
W1:132.11  not their source, and you maintain the world within your mind in  thought.
W1:132.12  God's creation is unlike the world in every way. And as it was His  thought by which you were created, so it is your thoughts which made
W1:132.14 There is no world because it is a  thought apart from God and made to separate the Father and the Son
W1:132.17 I who remain as God created me would loose the world from all I  thought it was. For I am real because the world is not, and I would
W1:132.21 I loose the world from all I  thought it was and choose my own reality instead.
W1:133.17  difficult decisions facing you, be quick to answer with this simple  thought:
W1:134.11  He has been gently wakened from his dream by understanding what he  thought he saw was never there. And now he cannot feel that all
W1:134.12  fight to save himself. He does not have to kill the dragons which he  thought pursued him. Nor need he erect the heavy walls of stone and
W1:134.12  him. Nor need he erect the heavy walls of stone and iron doors he  thought would make him safe. He can remove the ponderous and useless
W1:134.13  nor provide a guide to teach you its beneficence. There is no  thought in all the world which leads to any understanding of the laws
W1:134.13  which leads to any understanding of the laws it follows nor the  thought which it reflects. It is as alien to the world as is your own
W1:134.17  from all ideas of sin. Briefly consider all the evil things you  thought of him, and each time ask yourself “Would I condemn myself

W1:135.25  thought were needed nor indeed the answers to the problems which you  thought confronted you. But they are answers to another kind of
W1:135.26  the light and joy of simple truth, you will but wonder why you ever  thought that you must be defended from release. Heaven asks nothing.
W1:136.9  it. Thus is your “true” identity preserved and the strange, haunting  thought that you might be something beyond this little pile of dust
W1:136.12  His Will. The universe remains unheeding of the laws by which you  thought to govern it. And Heaven has not bowed to hell, nor life to
W1:137.1 Today's idea remains the central  thought on which salvation rests. For healing is the opposite of all
W1:137.16  every hour of the day slips by, remembering our function with this  thought:
W1:140.6 This is the  thought that cures. It does not make distinctions among unrealities.
W1:140.6  to truth which cannot fail to heal and heal forever. It is not a  thought which judges an illusion by its size, its seeming gravity, or
W1:R4.4  the truth of what you are and what your Father is. It is this  thought by which the Father gave creation to the Son, establishing
W1:R4.4  the Son, establishing the Son as co-creator with Himself. It is this  thought which fully guarantees salvation to the Son. For in his mind
W1:R4.4  dwell but those his Father shares. Lack of forgiveness blocks this  thought from his awareness. Yet it is forever true.
W1:R4.7  mind and clear it of all thoughts that would deceive, and let this  thought alone engage it fully and remove the rest:
W1:R4.9 Five minutes with this  thought will be enough to set the day along the lines which God
W1:R4.11 Each hour of the day bring to your mind the  thought with which the day began and spend a quiet moment with it.
W1:R4.12  practicing, as we review, we close as we began, repeating first the  thought that made the day a special time of blessing and of happiness
W1:146.2 [132] I loose the world from all I  thought it was.
W1:151.9  for He bears witness to your beautiful creation and the Mind Whose  thought created your reality. What can the body mean to Him Who knows
W1:151.13  We introduce these times with but a single, slow repeating of the  thought with which the day begins. And then we watch our thoughts,
W1:151.13  to Him Who sees the elements of truth in them. Let Him evaluate each  thought that comes to mind, remove the elements of dreams, and give
W1:151.14  God wills His Son as proof of His eternal Love. And as each  thought is thus transformed, it takes on healing power from the Mind
W1:151.14  of fantasy are gone, and what remains is unified into a perfect  thought that offers its perfection everywhere.
W1:152.3  Truth cannot have an opposite. This cannot be too often said and  thought about. For if what is not true is true as well as what is
W1:153.9  we need no defense because we are created unassailable, without all  thought or wish or dream in which attack has any meaning. Now we
W1:153.12 Salvation can be  thought of as a game that happy children play. It was designed by One
W1:153.15  a while. We will begin each day by giving our attention to the daily  thought as long as possible. Five minutes now becomes the least we
W1:155.14  name and His own, which are the same, we practice gladly with this  thought today:
W1:156.1 Today's idea but states the simple truth that makes the  thought of sin impossible. It promises there is no cause for guilt,
W1:156.1  being causeless it does not exist. It follows surely from the basic  thought so often mentioned in the text—ideas leave not their
W1:156.6  is it gone, because its quaint absurdity is seen. It is a foolish  thought, a silly dream, not frightening, ridiculous perhaps, but who
W1:156.7 Yet you have wasted many, many years on just this foolish  thought. The past is gone with all its fantasies. They keep you bound
W1:160.3  No one would let himself be dispossessed so needlessly unless he  thought there was another home more suited to his tastes.
W1:160.5  I leave my home to one more like me than myself and give him all I  thought belonged to me.” Now is he exiled of necessity, not knowing
W1:160.6  his home his Self remains. It asked no stranger in and took no alien  thought to be Itself. And It will call Its own unto Itself, in
W1:161.6 Bodies attack but minds do not. This  thought is surely reminiscent of our text, where it is often
W1:162.1 This single  thought, held firmly in the mind, would save the world. From time to
W1:162.2  honored as it is. There is no dream these words will not dispel, no  thought of sin, and no illusion that the dream contains that will not
W1:163.1 Death is a  thought which takes on many forms, often unrecognized. It may appear
W1:163.2  the guilty, and the lord of all illusions and deceptions, does the  thought of death seem mighty. For it seems to hold all living things
W1:163.6  position which we must accept if we be sane; what contradicts one  thought entirely cannot be true unless its opposite is proven false.
W1:164.4  heart and have not lost. There is a sense of holiness in you the  thought of sin has never touched. All this today you will remember.
W1:165.2 The  Thought of God created you. It left you not, nor have you ever been
W1:165.2  with It, and everything is one with you because It left you not. The  Thought of God protects you, cares for you, makes soft your resting
W1:165.2  love. Eternity and everlasting life shine in your mind because the  Thought of God has left you not and still abides with you.
W1:165.5  of Christ; your mind has come to lay aside denial and accept the  Thought of God as its inheritance.
W1:165.7  justified. Your doubts are meaningless, for God is certain. And the  Thought of Him is never absent. Sureness must abide within you who
W1:165.7  beyond our every doubt. His love remains beyond our every fear. The  thought of Him is still beyond all dreams and in our minds according
W1:166.9  feel that you are not alone. You even think the miserable self you  thought was you may not be your identity. Perhaps God's Word is truer
W1:166.11  “It is not so.” He points to all the gifts you have each time the  thought of poverty oppresses you and speaks of His companionship when
W1:167.3  Yet it is but an idea, irrelevant to what is seen as physical. A  thought is in the mind. It can be then applied as mind directs it.
W1:167.4 Death is the  thought that you are separate from your Creator. It is the belief
W1:167.8  gives not nor make conditions which He does not share with them. The  thought of death is not the opposite to thoughts of life. Forever
W1:167.10  we let imagined opposites to life abide even an instant where the  thought of life eternal has been set by God Himself.
W1:169.6  and future cannot be conceived. It lies beyond salvation—past all  thought of time, forgiveness, and the holy face of Christ. The Son of
W1:169.11  end in time, for grace foreshadows Heaven yet does not replace the  thought of time but for a little while. The interval suffices. It is
W1:170.4  that you attack. Yet your defense sets up an enemy within—an alien  thought at war with you, depriving you of peace, splitting your mind
W1:170.10  fear of God Himself. Here is the basic premise which enthrones the  thought of fear as god. For fear is loved by those who worship it,
W1:R5.4 This is the  thought which should precede the thoughts that we review. Each one
W1:R5.4  thoughts that we review. Each one but clarifies some aspect of this  thought or helps it be more meaningful, more personal and true, and
W1:R5.7  us, and teach us, step by step, how to return to the eternal Self we  thought we lost.
W1:R5.14  this we start and end each period of practice time. And with this  thought we sleep, to waken once again with these same words upon our
W1:R5.14  again with these same words upon our lips to greet another day. No  thought that we review but we surround with it and use the thoughts
W1:178.2 [165] Let not my mind deny the  thought of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I.
W1:181.4  And you have also been dismayed by the depressing and restricting  thought that, even if you should succeed, you will inevitably lose
W1:183.2  out their wings to keep you safe and shelter you from every worldly  thought that would intrude upon your holiness.
W1:183.7  we say today's idea but once. And then God's Name becomes our only  thought, our only word, the only thing that occupies our minds, the
W1:183.11  still, and will forever give. He calls on Him to let all things he  thought he made be nameless now, and in their place the holy Name of
W1:184.9  do not stand for anything at all, and in your practicing, it is this  thought that will release you from them. They become but means by
W1:186.1  will one day take all arrogance away from every mind. Here is the  thought of true humility which holds no function as your own but that
W1:187.2  you strengthen them in your own mind. Perhaps the form in which the  thought seems to appear is changed in giving. Yet it must return to
W1:187.4  them away, and you are sure that you will never lose them. What you  thought you did not have is thereby proven yours. Yet value not its
W1:187.4  however much you try to keep it safe. No form endures. It is the  thought behind the form of things that lives unchangeable.
W1:187.5 Give gladly. You can only gain thereby. The  thought remains and grows in strength as it is reinforced by giving.
W1:187.5  as well. And both must gain in this exchange, for each will have the  thought in form most helpful to him. What he seems to lose is always
W1:187.7  recognized must disappear. Accept not suffering, and you remove the  thought of suffering. Your blessing lies on everyone who suffers when
W1:187.7  who suffers when you choose to see all suffering as what it is. The  thought of sacrifice gives rise to all the forms that suffering
W1:187.8  There is no place for sacrifice in what has any value. If the  thought occurs, its very presence proves that error has arisen and
W1:187.9  afraid to look. The blessedness you will behold will take away all  thought of form and leave instead the perfect gift forever there,
W1:187.10 Now are we one in  thought, for fear has gone. And here, before the altar to one God,
W1:187.10  here, before the altar to one God, one Father, one Creator and one  thought, we stand together as one Son of God. Not separate from Him
W1:188.9  life. We will forgive them all, absolving all the world of what we  thought it did to us. For it is we who make the world as we would
W1:189.1  to be kept hidden from your sight. This light is a reflection of the  thought we practice now. To feel the Love of God within you is to see
W1:189.7  it thinks is either true or false or good or bad, of every  thought it judges worthy and all the ideas of which it is ashamed.
W1:189.7  of which it is ashamed. Hold onto nothing. Do not bring with you one  thought the past has taught nor one belief you ever learned before
W1:190.8 Pain is the  thought of evil taking form and working havoc in your holy mind. Pain
W1:191.3  escape the madness which induced this weird, unnatural, and ghostly  thought which mocks creation and which laughs at God. Deny your own
W1:191.4  you. All else but this one thing is folly to believe. In this one  thought is everything set free. In this one truth are all illusions
W1:191.6 One holy  thought like this, and you are free: you are the holy Son of God
W1:191.6  are free: you are the holy Son of God Himself. And with this holy  thought, you learn as well that you have freed the world. You have no
W1:191.9 And in that  thought is everything you look on wholly changed.
W1:193.5  His loving kindness to the Son He loves. Each lesson has a central  thought, the same in all of them. The form alone is changed, with
W1:193.13  lessons God would have you learn. He would not leave an unforgiving  thought without correction nor one thorn or nail to hurt His sacred
W1:194.6  effort as you can to make it be a part of you. As it becomes a  thought which rules your mind, a habit in your problem-solving
W1:194.9  we forget, we will be gently reassured. If we accept an unforgiving  thought, it will be soon replaced by love's reflection. And if we are
W1:195.2  follow in the way He sets before them to escape a prison that they  thought contained no door to the deliverance they now perceive.
W1:195.9  pursuit where we are badgered ceaselessly and pushed about without a  thought or care for us or for our future. Gratitude becomes the
W1:195.9  or care for us or for our future. Gratitude becomes the single  thought we substitute for these insane perceptions. God has cared for
W1:196.5 The dreary, hopeless  thought that you can make attacks on others and escape yourself has
W1:196.6 Such is the form of madness you believe if you accept the fearful  thought you can attack another and be free yourself. Until this form
W1:196.6  there be escape? The fear of God is real to anyone who thinks this  thought is true. And he will not perceive its foolishness nor even
W1:196.8  not now believe that fear is caused without. And God, Whom you had  thought to banish, can be welcomed back within the holy mind He never
W1:196.12 There is no  thought of God that does not go with you to help you reach that
W1:198.8  are strange and alien to the truth. Yet what but Truth could have a  thought which builds a bridge to truth which brings illusions to the

W1:R6.9 This  thought I do not want. I choose instead….
W1:R6.10  repeat the idea for the day, and let it take the place of what you  thought. Beyond such special applications of each day's idea, we will

C:18.17  be seen in two dimensions rather than one. In addition to dedicating  thought to unity with the whole, you must dedicate yourself to

C:18.20 Unifying  thought is more than a matter of focus or single-mindedness, although

T1:2.8  you, and it does call for a change of thought so extensive that all  thought as you once knew it does need to cease.
T1:2.9  and again until the new way totally replaces the old and the art of  thought leaves behind forever the need for what the ego-mind once but
T1:2.12  The new means of thinking is referred to here as the “art” of  thought in order to call your wholehearted attention to the continual
T1:2.12  is but a dialogue to which you have not responded. The art of  thought will free you to respond.
T1:2.18  through your experience of it, an opportunity to apply the art of  thought.
T1:2.19 Thus, these are the basic rules of the art of  thought: First, to experience what is and to acknowledge what is,
T1:2.22  like unto the Creator may be used as a definition for the art of  thought.
T1:3.1 The first opportunities for the art of  thought to be applied relate to memory in terms of your experience
T1:3.2  experience of truth is the same as seeing how different the art of  thought is from the thinking of the ego-mind! The art of thought is
T1:3.2  the art of thought is from the thinking of the ego-mind! The art of  thought is diametrically opposed to the thinking of the ego-mind.
T1:3.4  of truth dispels illusion and thus the ego-mind. The art of  thought replaces the ego-mind with the wholehearted. The wholehearted

T1:3.14  now if your fear is mightier than your willingness. But hold this  thought within your mind. What is needed to convince you will be
T1:3.20  its accomplishment. Better not to mess with such things. Even the  thought of it leads you to ideas of magic and power that is not of
T1:3.26 Now we can address each of these fears, bringing to them the art of  thought rather than the thinking of the ego-mind.

T1:4.3  a definition of miracles. Both are the same. Prayer and the art of  thought are the same. This should serve to make it clear that the
T1:4.3  once again far more broad and generalizable than your old habit of  thought has led you to see. Miracles are, in other words, a way of
T1:4.4 How can the rules of  thought we have identified serve to bring about the miracle that you

T1:4.18 The art of  thought is being taught here in order to prevent just such a
T1:4.19 You who have  thought that your interpretation of events and feelings has given
T1:4.19  to you to determine. This is not your responsibility. You who have  thought that your interpretation of situations and the feelings they
T1:4.19  defined who you are, think again. Be willing to apply the art of  thought rather than the thinking of the ego-mind. Interpretation but
T1:4.20 The joy you have  thought has come to you from an interpretation that is uniquely your
T1:4.20  the chance to leave you is for you to begin to practice the art of  thought and thus begin to learn the difference.
T1:4.21  already stated, the first opportunities for you to learn the art of  thought will be provided through what we have called the
T1:4.21  with these lessons so that you may apply to them the art of  thought rather than the thinking of the ego-mind. The art of thought
T1:4.21  art of thought rather than the thinking of the ego-mind. The art of  thought will reveal the truth to you. The thinking of the ego-mind
T1:4.23 Revelation is a proper description of the mode by which the art of  thought teaches and helps you learn. It is not through study, effort,
T1:4.26  all fear is doubt about your self. Now we must expand upon this  thought, for doubt about your Self is doubt about God. While God is
T1:5.2  must be looked at carefully now and with all the power of the art of  thought. One aspect of this fear has to do with the human experience,
T1:5.4  the all or the nothingness, the eternal or the void. While your  thought system here has been described often as insanity, this is the
T1:5.9  we have defined it many times within this Course, must exist in the  thought system that is real to you. The thought system of the
T1:5.9  Course, must exist in the thought system that is real to you. The  thought system of the ego-mind is what has been real to you and thus
T1:5.9  nothing else that will free who you are but freedom from the ego's  thought system. That the ego's thought system has kept you from this
T1:5.9  you are but freedom from the ego's thought system. That the ego's  thought system has kept you from this freedom is the seeming
T1:5.10  the only cause of your experience here. When released from the ego  thought system, the heart becomes the determiner of what you
T1:5.10  is the real you or center of your Self, being joined with the only  thought system that is real, the thought system of the truth. How
T1:5.10  Self, being joined with the only thought system that is real, the  thought system of the truth. How could a thought system based on
T1:5.10  system that is real, the thought system of the truth. How could a  thought system based on anything but the truth lead to anything but
T1:5.12  and finally convinced. You must experience the reality of the new  thought system or it will remain forever theoretical. You must let go
T1:5.12  You must let go of the foundation of fear on which the old  thought system was built in order to experience the new.
T1:5.13 The art of  thought invites the experience of the new thought system by being
T1:5.13 The art of thought invites the experience of the new  thought system by being willing to replace the old with the new.
T1:6.1 The  thought system of the ego-mind is a learned system and this is why it
T1:6.1  is a learned system and this is why it can be unlearned. The  thought system of the truth is always present as the truth is always
T1:6.1  unlearned. It will thus be revealed to you as soon as the learned  thought system ceases to block its realization.
T1:6.2  this revelation to take place? It will begin by learning the art of  thought as the act of prayer. We have spoken already of memory here,
T1:6.5  that can reasonably be called a way of life or likened to the art of  thought. Prayers such as these emanate from either heart or mind and
T1:6.8  are revisited under the all-encompassing umbrella of a new way of  thought? The different personalities become one, the different paths
T1:8.17  all-encompassing, we will reflect a moment here on how the art of  thought brings all you have seen as parts of the self, such as male
T1:9.1 The art of  thought is not possible without a return to the virgin or unaltered
T1:9.1  a return to the virgin or unaltered self. The practice of the art of  thought is what will complete the return begun through the coursework
T1:9.8  and one to receive. You have long waited to receive what you have  thought could come only from some other. Your churches are but

T2:1.10  form is a harbinger of unity. Form is a product of the separation.  Thought “forms” are the product of the separation. Unity is not a
T2:1.11 You are a creator but a creator who creates with  thought unlike to any thoughts you have had before. Your thoughts of
T2:1.12  unity. Thoughts joined in unity can be likened to thinking without  thought. They can be likened to imagination. They can be likened to
T2:3.1  Everything you have ever wanted to be is. Everything you have ever  thought or imagined is and is reflected in the world you see. The
T2:3.7  Creation is a continuous and on-going expansion of the same  thought of love that brought life into existence. The seeds of
T2:3.8  Christ is the continuous and on-going expansion of the same  thought of love that brought life into existence. Christ is your
T2:4.12  about the past and all those things that at one time or another you  thought would bring you fulfillment. This is about recognizing who
T2:4.12  have led you. All these notions are concerned with who you have  thought yourself to be, not with who you are. They do not recognize
T2:4.15 You must be beginning to see that your  thought processes, the very thought processes that tell you
T2:4.15 You must be beginning to see that your thought processes, the very  thought processes that tell you hour-by-hour and minute-by-minute how
T2:4.15  that you are still in need of unlearning, of undoing old patterns of  thought. This is atonement and it is continuous and ongoing until it
T2:6.7  You may have regarded these exercises as silly or you may have  thought of the lessons of physics and felt as if you understood these
T2:6.9  by perceiving a new world. You are changing from who you have  thought yourself to be to who you are.
T2:7.19  relationships. Does this mean that you are required to express every  thought and feeling that comes your way? No, but this does mean that
T2:9.2  assist you in bypassing your ego mind. Some practices more commonly  thought of as tools might be meditation, exercises of the body such
T2:9.15 Because you have not  thought previously of needs as tools every bit as valuable as the
T2:10.4 You might think of unity as you have so often  thought of your brain, but rather than thinking of it in the
T2:10.4  a storehouse or giant brain in which all that has ever been known or  thought is contained. The technology that has created super-computers

T2:12.7 The power of  thought and the power of prayer, once aligned, call constantly upon
T2:13.6  as we return to the premise put forth in “A Treatise on the Art of  Thought:” that of the elevation of form.
T3:1.6  self, as represented by your body, while adhering to the ego's  thought system, became an ego-self or an unreal self. An unreal self
T3:1.7 The ego's  thought system has been replaced by the thought system of unity and
T3:1.7 The ego's thought system has been replaced by the  thought system of unity and you are left, perhaps, feeling unsure of
T3:1.13  with the ego once and finally vanquished, the patterns of the ego's  thought system remain to be undone. This is atonement. We work now to
T3:2.4  same terms that made it necessary to thoroughly discuss the ego's  thought system. What you believe about yourself is part of the
T3:2.11  impossible for you to imagine this holiness with the concepts of the  thought system you heretofore have relied upon. This thought system
T3:2.11  concepts of the thought system you heretofore have relied upon. This  thought system has allowed only the acceptance of a reality within
T3:3.7  the changed beliefs we have worked together to integrate into your  thought system, are only a first step, a step toward holy
T3:3.7  step, a step toward holy relationship. These new beliefs of your new  thought system must be wholehearted. They cannot be beliefs that
T3:6.4  self, there has always been just enough room within the ego's  thought system to keep within you the idea of a self the ego is not.
T3:7.1  beliefs in “A Treatise on Unity,” to speaking here of ideas. God's  thought of you is an idea of absolute truth. Your existence derives
T3:7.1  The ego's existence derived from your idea of a separated self, a  thought, or idea, of absolute untruth. The ego's thought system then
T3:7.1  a separated self, a thought, or idea, of absolute untruth. The ego's  thought system then formed beliefs that supported the initial idea of
T3:7.2  now of ideas or thoughts. If you believe that God created you with a  thought or idea, then you can begin to see the power of thought. If
T3:7.2  you with a thought or idea, then you can begin to see the power of  thought. If you can believe that you created the ego with a thought
T3:7.2  power of thought. If you can believe that you created the ego with a  thought or an idea, you can see where the power of thought is your

T3:10.4  you no word or sentiment to replace it. I ask you simply to take the  thought of it from your mind as quickly as it enters.
T3:10.8  like all the rest, be forgotten. The process of forgetting these  thought patterns will be only slightly different from forgetting your
T3:10.10  your past uncertainty. Uncertainty, like all the rest of the ego's  thought system, was learned. Your true Self has no cause for
T3:10.11  you as an echo from the past. It is a habit, a pattern of the old  thought system. All you must do is not listen to it. Its voice will
T3:10.12  but you will need to learn what will at first seem to you a foreign  thought system. This thought system recognizes no fear or judgment,
T3:10.12  learn what will at first seem to you a foreign thought system. This  thought system recognizes no fear or judgment, no uncertainty or
T3:10.12  no uncertainty or doubt, no contrast and no division. It is the  thought system of unity. It is your true thought system and will be
T3:10.12  and no division. It is the thought system of unity. It is your true  thought system and will be easily remembered once you begin to let it
T3:10.14 What we are doing now is much like translating the learned  thought system of the ego into the thought system of the Christ-Self
T3:10.14  much like translating the learned thought system of the ego into the  thought system of the Christ-Self that you but think you have
T3:10.14  dwell in the House of Truth, if you do not resist unlearning the ego  thought system, the thought system of your true Self will quite
T3:10.14  Truth, if you do not resist unlearning the ego thought system, the  thought system of your true Self will quite simply return to your
T3:10.14  will quite simply return to your memory. You will soon forget the  thought system of the ego-self even though, when encountering those
T3:10.14  the ego-self even though, when encountering those who still use that  thought system, you will be able to communicate with them. Yet the
T3:10.14  yourself continuously teaching the language, if you will, of the new  thought system, for you will have no desire to communicate with
T3:11.16  against righteousness. It comes to remind you, as you replace the  thought system of illusion with the thought system of the truth, that
T3:11.16  remind you, as you replace the thought system of illusion with the  thought system of the truth, that having remembered the truth of who
T3:11.16  wrong. This temptation will not long be with you for once the old  thought system is thoroughly translated to the new, such ideas as
T3:13.2  temptations of the human experience. In “A Treatise on the Art of  Thought,” we spoke of these temptations in regards to extremes of the
T3:13.4  lies ahead of you now is simply learning in accordance with the new  thought system of the truth; accepting the truth and leaving illusion
T3:13.4  the truth; accepting the truth and leaving illusion behind. The new  thought system is simple to learn. What is of love is truth. What is
T3:13.14  form and your Self as your physical self represents, in form, the  thought or image produced within the Self. Ideas, in the context in
T3:14.1 The death of the ego  thought system has made way for the birth of the thought system of
T3:14.1 The death of the ego thought system has made way for the birth of the  thought system of the truth. The thought system of the ego was based
T3:14.1  has made way for the birth of the thought system of the truth. The  thought system of the ego was based on fear. In this time of
T3:14.1  of the ego was based on fear. In this time of translation from one  thought system to the other, the most subtle and yet significant
T3:14.1  is the change from the foundation of fear, the basis of the ego  thought system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the thought
T3:14.1  of the ego thought system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the  thought system of truth. While the foundation of fear, like the ego,
T3:14.1  action, you will not experience the freedom of living from the new  thought system. The new thought system will still exist within your
T3:14.1  the freedom of living from the new thought system. The new  thought system will still exist within your mind and heart, as
T3:14.1  nothing can now take this memory from you, but to experience the new  thought system as thought alone will not bring about the changes you
T3:14.1  this memory from you, but to experience the new thought system as  thought alone will not bring about the changes you would so desire to
T3:14.2 Let me attempt to make the difference between having a new  thought system and living by a new thought system more clear. Because
T3:14.2  difference between having a new thought system and living by a new  thought system more clear. Because you now are translating the
T3:14.2  a new thought system more clear. Because you now are translating the  thought system of the ego into the thought system of the truth, you
T3:14.2  you now are translating the thought system of the ego into the  thought system of the truth, you will begin to believe in such things
T3:14.3  with you old patterns of behavior. Once the translation of the new  thought system for the old is complete, this will no longer happen.
T3:14.5  immeasurably in leaving behind patterns of behavior based on the old  thought system of fear. Despite the foundation of fear upon which
T3:14.5  system of fear. Despite the foundation of fear upon which your old  thought system was based, you still would not be other than who you
T3:14.8  making but simply the choice to live by the truth of the new  thought system. If you but let go the old, and with it the patterns
T3:15.11  this new beginning save for the finalizing of the translation of the  thought system of the ego to the thought system of the truth. As we

T3:15.11  As we have said before, it is impossible to learn the new with the  thought system of the old. It is impossible to learn the truth
T3:15.11  that love, peace, and truth are interchangeable ideas within the new  thought system. Thus, truth, like love, is not something that you can
T3:15.14  the past. What will assist you most, as the translation of the old  thought system for the new continues, are the beliefs that you
T3:15.16  be represented in form. These beliefs can, with the help of the new  thought system, change the very nature of the self described by the
T3:15.18  The total replacement of illusion with the truth is what the new  thought system will accomplish. Obviously, this replacement must be
T3:16.3  which it is you plan. These have been the ways of creation in the  thought system of the ego, ways that have brought much advancement to
T3:16.8  mind and heart will aid the translation of this aspect of the ego  thought system to the thought system of the truth.
T3:16.8  aid the translation of this aspect of the ego thought system to the  thought system of the truth.
T3:16.12  this fear of loss, you would not find it difficult to live by the  thought system of the truth. This fear relates very strongly to your
T3:16.16 All of these temptations worked together in the  thought system of the ego and created patterns that caused them to
T3:16.17  of the truth and see the reverse take place. See how quickly the  thought system of the truth builds upon itself and forms a real and
T3:17.4  beginning you are now called to. It required the learning of a new  thought system, the thought system of the physical, a thought system
T3:17.4  now called to. It required the learning of a new thought system, the  thought system of the physical, a thought system that was not needed
T3:17.4  of a new thought system, the thought system of the physical, a  thought system that was not needed before there was physical form.
T3:17.4  other creation stories, but tell of a “mistake” in the learning of a  thought system of physicality, a mistake that became a building block
T3:17.8  God the Creator, has known the existence of the illusion and the  thought system of the ego-self and been able to communicate within
T3:18.9  way, you will join the mechanisms of your physical form to the new  thought system of the truth. Your body, as has been often said, is a
T3:18.9  you choose to have it serve you. It has always been led by your  thought system. If it is no longer instructed by the thought system
T3:18.9  led by your thought system. If it is no longer instructed by the  thought system of illusion, it is natural to realize that it will now
T3:18.9  it is natural to realize that it will now be instructed by the  thought system of the truth. Thus your eyes will learn to observe
T3:18.10  of your mind. This is the thinking of the ego-thought system. The  thought system of the truth realizes that the external world is but a
T3:19.1  occur within your physical form as it begins to be guided by the  thought system of the truth rather than the thought system of
T3:19.1  to be guided by the thought system of the truth rather than the  thought system of illusion. You will fear these changes less if you
T3:19.2 For ages man has  thought that spiritual joy diminishes physical joy. While there is no
T3:19.4  and retribution. These things have always had as their cause the  thought system of the ego or the bitterness of the heart. As cause
T3:19.4  in physical form without a corresponding cause birthed in the ego  thought system or the bitterness of the heart.
T3:19.9 There is no longer any time to waste on such illusions. The  thought system of the truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it
T3:19.9  truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it not in truth. The  thought system of the truth is a thought system that is not split by
T3:19.9  and so sees it not in truth. The thought system of the truth is a  thought system that is not split by varying goals and desires. It is
T3:19.9  system that is not split by varying goals and desires. It is a  thought system of unity. It is a thought system of one thought, one
T3:19.9  varying goals and desires. It is a thought system of unity. It is a  thought system of one thought, one goal. That goal is the original
T3:19.9  It is a thought system of unity. It is a thought system of one  thought, one goal. That goal is the original thought that began the
T3:19.9  a thought system of one thought, one goal. That goal is the original  thought that began the experience in physical form, the thought of
T3:19.9  the original thought that began the experience in physical form, the  thought of expressing the Self in observable form.
T3:19.10  to which the body merely responded. The body's response to the new  thought system will be different in many ways, none of which will
T3:19.11 While others still remain tied to the old  thought system, human behavior will still reflect harmful actions
T3:19.12 These lessons could not be taught while blame remained within your  thought system. No victim is to blame for the violence done to them.
T3:20.1  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 effectiveness.
T3:20.1  a false cause and so no effects that exist in truth. Now, your every  thought and action will have effect, and the choices that lie before
T3:20.4 In “A Treatise on the Art of  Thought,” you were asked to request a miracle as a learning device.
T3:20.10 Your new  thought system is not tied to beliefs of an “if this, then that”
T3:21.15  feel you have chosen to be within that world. Whether you have given  thought to the interconnection of these ideas you hold about yourself
T3:21.20  personal self will be useful as that certainty is translated to the  thought system of the truth and aids you in becoming certain of your
T3:22.12  what is and what will be. You may have, upon reading those words,  thought that this creative tension would not necessarily be a good
T3:22.15  might not. Realize that this game of chance is a pattern of the old  thought system that needs to be replaced by certainty. If you have
T3:22.15  game and have fun doing it. Do not bring this attitude into your new  thought system or your new life. If you are tired of the old, be
T4:1.23  You may have seen the acts that this yearning has driven them to and  thought, incorrectly, that the new time that is here is the end of
T4:1.23  time that is here is the end of the days of innocence. You may have  thought it advantageous to have once been so clearly able to see the
T4:2.13  your Self and in your uncertainty, still subject to the patterns of  thought of the old. Many of these patterns do not concern me for they
T4:2.31  Have you expected to see in the same way but more lovingly? Have you  thought you might begin to recognize those who, like you, are joined
T4:2.31  Have you included other senses in your idea of sight? Have you  thought your instincts will be sharpened and that you will know with
T4:5.13  you have believed in any kind of afterlife at all, you have perhaps  thought of the afterlife as having two sides. Some have thought of
T4:5.13  have perhaps thought of the afterlife as having two sides. Some have  thought of this as heaven and hell. Others as all or nothing. Many of
T4:5.13  this as heaven and hell. Others as all or nothing. Many of you have  thought of it as a time of judgment. But I tell you truly; it is no
T4:6.8  accept in this fullness of time. In this time of unity, dedicate all  thought to unity. Accept no separation. Accept all choices. Thus are
T4:7.6 The mind, once released from the ego's  thought system, has but to relearn the thought system of the truth.
T4:7.6  once released from the ego's thought system, has but to relearn the  thought system of the truth. Your mind, heart, and body have joined
T4:8.7  was! If you can imagine for a moment yourself as a being whose every  thought became manifest, as perhaps you can envision from remembering
T4:12.10  The only way to do so is to, for a short while, be vigilant of your  thought patterns so that you eradicate the idea of learning in
T4:12.20  they are replaced by a new pattern. That self-doubt arises in your  thought patterns will not mean that you have cause for self-doubt.
T4:12.23  words, you, as a being of singular consciousness, could learn the  thought patterns of a singular consciousness because it was a finite
T4:12.23  could think of this as something which, were it integrated into the  thought processes of the singular brain, would cause brain damage,
T4:12.27  the pattern of your thoughts, even after the ego came to rule your  thought system. Without this pattern, the ego could have succeeded in
D:1.12 This  thought makes you worry about the identity of the one you have called
D:1.21  unity, a learning that has been different from all learning you but  thought you accomplished as a separated self. You have achieved an
D:2.11  you desired it to be you call it a failure. You admit that what you  thought would work did not work.
D:2.12  trial and error. No sure results are counted on. When a pattern of  thought or behavior has been found to work in more cases than not, it

D:4.7  For most, the prison system is a very successful deterrent. The  thought of time in prison fills the mind with fear. And yet those who
D:4.9 Your prison was created by the separated thoughts of the separated  thought “system.” Systems, as you may recall, are the result of your
D:4.14 Systems of  thought are both divinely inspired and products of the separated
D:4.14  the separated self. The idea of giving and receiving as one might be  thought of as a divinely inspired system of thought. In such a way of
D:4.14  as one might be thought of as a divinely inspired system of  thought. In such a way of thinking, one would take the internal
D:4.14  of thought. In such a way of thinking, one would take the internal  thought pattern, enhance it with the external pattern, and by seeing
D:4.14  cooperation of all, understand and live according to the system of  thought of giving and receiving being one. Systems of thought are
D:4.14  the system of thought of giving and receiving being one. Systems of  thought are thus the foundation upon which how you live arises. The
D:4.14  foundation upon which how you live arises. The truth is a system of  thought. It exists in wholeness and has always been available.
D:4.15 Systems of  thought that arose from the separated self are those you have
D:4.15  are those you have accepted as the truth. Some of these systems of  thought were part of the divine pattern. Contrast is one such system.
D:4.15  for your learning. It was upon the foundation of this and other  thought systems that your perception developed. Through contrast, you
D:4.16 Other systems of  thought were not part of the divine pattern. The ego is one such
D:4.16  and we have heretofore referred to both the ego and to the ego's  thought system, but the ego is quite rightly seen as a system in and
D:4.16  the ego is quite rightly seen as a system in and of itself. It is  thought externalized and given an identity you but falsely believed
D:4.16  you but falsely believed to be yourself. From this one externalized  thought pattern came most of your false ideas, ideas that made it
D:4.16  ideas, ideas that made it difficult even for the divinely inspired  thought systems to provide the learning they were designed to impart.
D:4.17  patterns, or systems, were also built from the systems of  thought that have been your foundation, the basic building blocks of
D:4.24  rather than learning. Turn to this as the new pattern and to the  thought system of giving and receiving as one. Let the authority of
D:5.7  the body and its acts as representative of truth. You have  thought the things you do represent your drives, but they simply
D:5.10  now as you are called to see what you might previously have  thought of as inconsequential in the light of truth. Everything given
D:5.20  with the universe? As you can see, you are now approaching another  thought reversal. Fear not that your confusion will last, for with
D:5.20  reversal. Fear not that your confusion will last, for with this  thought reversal will come your final release.
D:6.2  that will be used less and less as the time of learning passes. The  thought reversal of which we recently spoke is why I bring this up.
D:6.5  is thus with new ideas about the body that we will begin the final  thought reversal that will allow you to live in form as who you truly
D:6.17  and receiving are one, you will begin to see the enormity of the  thought reversal that now awaits your acceptance. As I said earlier,
D:6.21  take it one step away from the thinking of the “if this, then that”  thought system we are leaving behind. As a non-learning being you are
D:6.27  is capable of providing. We have redefined the miracle as the art of  thought, or the continual act of prayer that sustains the unity of
D:8.9  these dialogues. As the mind opens and accepts the new, the art of  thought will become your new means of thinking. What has been learned
D:9.2 The final  thought reversal that was spoken of in the section on acceptance is
D:9.3  led to see that this desire has always been with you, and you have  thought it is the very desire that, once defined and acted upon,
D:9.4 But you have  thought about this desire to know who you are in one way or another
D:9.4  learning, the pattern, even of your wholeheartedness, remains one of  thought. This pattern is what the new patterns of acceptance and
D:9.5  Thought is a practice and a pattern of the separated and thus
D:9.5  God, and when ideas were spoken of as if they were synonymous with  thought, this was an accurate and truthful way of expressing what was
D:9.8  with the teaching of “A Treatise on the Art of Thought”. If  thought is what imprisons you, why would the “art of thought” be
D:9.10  to create the new, through the means of old, including the means of  thought.
D:11.1 We haven't, here, been talking of the art of  thought, but of the use of thought. You use thought to solve
D:11.1  haven't, here, been talking of the art of thought, but of the use of  thought. You use thought to solve problems, apply thought to
D:11.1  talking of the art of thought, but of the use of thought. You use  thought to solve problems, apply thought to intellectual puzzles,
D:11.1  but of the use of thought. You use thought to solve problems, apply  thought to intellectual puzzles, focus your thoughts in order to make
D:11.2  in this way, dear brothers and sisters, is insane. To think of the  thought or idea of God by which you were created as the same type of
D:11.2  thought or idea of God by which you were created as the same type of  thought I have just described would be insane. Are you willing any
D:11.4  is of unity. True giving and receiving is not of the separated  thought of the separated thought system of the separated self. Your
D:11.4  and receiving is not of the separated thought of the separated  thought system of the separated self. Your acceptance of the concepts
D:11.4  on the Art of Thought” was but a beginning to the total rejection of  thought as you know it that must now occur in order to go on to
D:12.1  of your universe and yourself, there is no mechanism through which  thought can enter your mind. You believe thoughts exist in your mind
D:12.1  that a cessation of brain activity is equivalent to the end of  thought, you accept this as proof that your thoughts originate from
D:12.3 They are, quite simply, not the separated thoughts of the separated  thought system.
D:12.4 This work is called a dialogue. A dialogue is most often  thought of as a discourse between two or more people and as such is
D:12.9  from unity are not the same as the thoughts that arise from the  thought system of the separated self. We might make this a simpler
D:12.9  subject to discuss by making a distinction between thinking and  thought. This distinction, while it will not be consistent with your
D:12.13  assist you in leaving patterns of thinking behind is the idea that  thought as we are describing it, the thought that is not really
D:12.13  behind is the idea that thought as we are describing it, the  thought that is not really thought but the way of coming to know of
D:12.13  that thought as we are describing it, the thought that is not really  thought but the way of coming to know of the Self joined in unity,
D:14.1  of unity. Discovery is also consistent with the way most of you have  thought of it throughout your lifetime. It is, in other words,
D:14.13  it will become your identity.” That treasure is the new way of  thought put forth in “A Treatise on the Art of Thought”, the thought
D:14.13  way of thought put forth in “A Treatise on the Art of Thought”, the  thought that is the miracle, or miracle-readiness, the thought that
D:14.13  Thought”, the thought that is the miracle, or miracle-readiness, the  thought that comes of unity and that extends and expresses itself
D:15.17 Maintenance is  thought of most often as keeping what you have, and as keeping what
D:15.17  have, and as keeping what you have in good repair. It is not often  thought of as a lasting measure, which is the primary difference
D:16.5  know, the ability to be, the ability to create. Through the art of  thought, these abilities become who we are. God and Creation are
D:16.12  and it should not be seen as a cause for disappointment. Perhaps you  thought you were beyond this point of becoming. And yet, as you have
D:16.12  you have felt as if you still have a long way to go. You have often  thought that even though you may be done with learning, you don't
D:16.17  is but a photograph that remains, a copy of what you once might have  thought of as your “original” self. It is but an impression, as in
D:17.13  as well as your desire, has moved beyond the pattern of  thought.
D:Day1.6 Now that you have moved beyond the  thought system of the ego self, you look back on it and realize why
D:Day1.6  ego was your guide. You were required to make a choice between the  thought system of the ego and the thought system of unity. This

D:Day3.28  was a learning device—not one of divine design, but one of the  thought system of the ego. It was a trick to keep you constantly
D:Day3.31  joy would err in thinking that it could. How many times has what you  thought would provide you with reason for joy failed to do so once
D:Day4.5  has not been a choice. Both as divine design and as a pattern of the  thought system of the ego, learning has been with you and within you.
D:Day4.29  unnatural your breathing becomes when it becomes the focus of your  thought. Thinking about breathing imposes an unnatural constraint

D:Day5.5  from their mouths as speech is enabled that bypasses the realm of  thought completely. Do not fight any of these feelings or others that
D:Day7.12  with grace. This occurs as you give up the control you have but  thought you exerted over your life and its circumstances, and live in
D:Day8.17  have been to accept the feelings generated by the fear of the ego  thought system or the bitterness of your heart. It would have been to

D:Day9.7  of expression, you believe you have allowed yourself freedom of  thought. You believe you have allowed yourself freedom of feeling.
D:Day10.10 This type of intuition seems to come more as  thought than as feeling, but even so, it is your feelings about such
D:Day10.11 What you have trusted in the most is rational  thought, and intuition is different than rational thought, as are
D:Day10.11  most is rational thought, and intuition is different than rational  thought, as are feelings of all kinds. You think of feelings either

C:2.17  Your mind rebels because it is the stronghold of the ego. Your  thought system is what has made the world you see, the ego its

C:7.5 This one thought constitutes a  thought system in and of itself, for it is the primary thought by
C:8.24  completed each night. Each day is your creation held together by the  thought system that gave it birth. To observe this is to see its
C:8.25 Everything is held together by the  thought system that gave birth to it. There are but two thought

T1:5.4  the all or the nothingness, the eternal or the void. While your  thought system here has been described often as insanity, this is the
T1:5.9  we have defined it many times within this Course, must exist in the  thought system that is real to you. The thought system of the
T1:5.9  Course, must exist in the thought system that is real to you. The  thought system of the ego-mind is what has been real to you and thus
T1:5.9  nothing else that will free who you are but freedom from the ego's  thought system. That the ego's thought system has kept you from this
T1:5.9  you are but freedom from the ego's thought system. That the ego's  thought system has kept you from this freedom is the seeming
T1:5.10  the only cause of your experience here. When released from the ego  thought system, the heart becomes the determiner of what you
T1:5.10  is the real you or center of your Self, being joined with the only  thought system that is real, the thought system of the truth. How
T1:5.10  Self, being joined with the only thought system that is real, the  thought system of the truth. How could a thought system based on
T1:5.10  system that is real, the thought system of the truth. How could a  thought system based on anything but the truth lead to anything but

T1:5.12  You must let go of the foundation of fear on which the old  thought system was built in order to experience the new.
T1:5.13 The art of thought invites the experience of the new  thought system by being willing to replace the old with the new.
T1:6.1 The  thought system of the ego-mind is a learned system and this is why it
T1:6.1  is a learned system and this is why it can be unlearned. The  thought system of the truth is always present as the truth is always
T1:6.1  unlearned. It will thus be revealed to you as soon as the learned  thought system ceases to block its realization.

T3:2.4  same terms that made it necessary to thoroughly discuss the ego's  thought system. What you believe about yourself is part of the
T3:2.11  impossible for you to imagine this holiness with the concepts of the  thought system you heretofore have relied upon. This thought system
T3:2.11  concepts of the thought system you heretofore have relied upon. This  thought system has allowed only the acceptance of a reality within
T3:3.7  the changed beliefs we have worked together to integrate into your  thought system, are only a first step, a step toward holy
T3:3.7  step, a step toward holy relationship. These new beliefs of your new  thought system must be wholehearted. They cannot be beliefs that

T3:7.1  a separated self, a thought, or idea, of absolute untruth. The ego's  thought system then formed beliefs that supported the initial idea of

T3:9.3  within it and held together by the learned ideas of the ego  thought system. Now you must imagine yourself walking outside of the
T3:10.10  your past uncertainty. Uncertainty, like all the rest of the ego's  thought system, was learned. Your true Self has no cause for
T3:10.11  you as an echo from the past. It is a habit, a pattern of the old  thought system. All you must do is not listen to it. Its voice will

T3:10.14  Truth, if you do not resist unlearning the ego thought system, the  thought system of your true Self will quite simply return to your

T3:10.14  the ego-self even though, when encountering those who still use that  thought system, you will be able to communicate with them. Yet the
T3:10.14  yourself continuously teaching the language, if you will, of the new  thought system, for you will have no desire to communicate with
T3:11.16  against righteousness. It comes to remind you, as you replace the  thought system of illusion with the thought system of the truth, that
T3:11.16  remind you, as you replace the thought system of illusion with the  thought system of the truth, that having remembered the truth of who
T3:11.16  wrong. This temptation will not long be with you for once the old  thought system is thoroughly translated to the new, such ideas as
T3:13.4  lies ahead of you now is simply learning in accordance with the new  thought system of the truth; accepting the truth and leaving illusion
T3:13.4  the truth; accepting the truth and leaving illusion behind. The new  thought system is simple to learn. What is of love is truth. What is
T3:14.1 The death of the ego  thought system has made way for the birth of the thought system of
T3:14.1 The death of the ego thought system has made way for the birth of the  thought system of the truth. The thought system of the ego was based
T3:14.1  has made way for the birth of the thought system of the truth. The  thought system of the ego was based on fear. In this time of
T3:14.1  of the ego was based on fear. In this time of translation from one  thought system to the other, the most subtle and yet significant
T3:14.1  is the change from the foundation of fear, the basis of the ego  thought system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the thought
T3:14.1  of the ego thought system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the  thought system of truth. While the foundation of fear, like the ego,

T3:14.1  the freedom of living from the new thought system. The new  thought system will still exist within your mind and heart, as
T3:14.1  nothing can now take this memory from you, but to experience the new  thought system as thought alone will not bring about the changes you

T3:14.2  you now are translating the thought system of the ego into the  thought system of the truth, you will begin to believe in such things

T3:14.5  immeasurably in leaving behind patterns of behavior based on the old  thought system of fear. Despite the foundation of fear upon which
T3:14.5  system of fear. Despite the foundation of fear upon which your old  thought system was based, you still would not be other than who you
T3:14.8  making but simply the choice to live by the truth of the new  thought system. If you but let go the old, and with it the patterns
T3:15.11  this new beginning save for the finalizing of the translation of the  thought system of the ego to the thought system of the truth. As we

T3:15.11  As we have said before, it is impossible to learn the new with the  thought system of the old. It is impossible to learn the truth
T3:15.11  that love, peace, and truth are interchangeable ideas within the new  thought system. Thus, truth, like love, is not something that you can
T3:15.14  the past. What will assist you most, as the translation of the old  thought system for the new continues, are the beliefs that you
T3:15.16  be represented in form. These beliefs can, with the help of the new  thought system, change the very nature of the self described by the
T3:15.18  The total replacement of illusion with the truth is what the new  thought system will accomplish. Obviously, this replacement must be
T3:16.3  which it is you plan. These have been the ways of creation in the  thought system of the ego, ways that have brought much advancement to
T3:16.8  mind and heart will aid the translation of this aspect of the ego  thought system to the thought system of the truth.
T3:16.8  aid the translation of this aspect of the ego thought system to the  thought system of the truth.
T3:16.12  this fear of loss, you would not find it difficult to live by the  thought system of the truth. This fear relates very strongly to your
T3:16.16 All of these temptations worked together in the  thought system of the ego and created patterns that caused them to
T3:16.17  of the truth and see the reverse take place. See how quickly the  thought system of the truth builds upon itself and forms a real and
T3:17.4  beginning you are now called to. It required the learning of a new  thought system, the thought system of the physical, a thought system
T3:17.4  now called to. It required the learning of a new thought system, the  thought system of the physical, a thought system that was not needed
T3:17.4  of a new thought system, the thought system of the physical, a  thought system that was not needed before there was physical form.
T3:17.4  other creation stories, but tell of a “mistake” in the learning of a  thought system of physicality, a mistake that became a building block
T3:17.8  God the Creator, has known the existence of the illusion and the  thought system of the ego-self and been able to communicate within
T3:18.9  way, you will join the mechanisms of your physical form to the new  thought system of the truth. Your body, as has been often said, is a
T3:18.9  you choose to have it serve you. It has always been led by your  thought system. If it is no longer instructed by the thought system
T3:18.9  led by your thought system. If it is no longer instructed by the  thought system of illusion, it is natural to realize that it will now
T3:18.9  it is natural to realize that it will now be instructed by the  thought system of the truth. Thus your eyes will learn to observe
T3:18.10  of your mind. This is the thinking of the ego-thought system. The  thought system of the truth realizes that the external world is but a
T3:19.1  occur within your physical form as it begins to be guided by the  thought system of the truth rather than the thought system of
T3:19.1  to be guided by the thought system of the truth rather than the  thought system of illusion. You will fear these changes less if you
T3:19.4  and retribution. These things have always had as their cause the  thought system of the ego or the bitterness of the heart. As cause
T3:19.4  in physical form without a corresponding cause birthed in the ego  thought system or the bitterness of the heart.
T3:19.9 There is no longer any time to waste on such illusions. The  thought system of the truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it
T3:19.9  truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it not in truth. The  thought system of the truth is a thought system that is not split by
T3:19.9  and so sees it not in truth. The thought system of the truth is a  thought system that is not split by varying goals and desires. It is
T3:19.9  system that is not split by varying goals and desires. It is a  thought system of unity. It is a thought system of one thought, one
T3:19.9  varying goals and desires. It is a thought system of unity. It is a  thought system of one thought, one goal. That goal is the original
T3:19.10  to which the body merely responded. The body's response to the new  thought system will be different in many ways, none of which will
T3:19.11 While others still remain tied to the old  thought system, human behavior will still reflect harmful actions
T3:19.12 These lessons could not be taught while blame remained within your  thought system. No victim is to blame for the violence done to them.
T3:20.10 Your new  thought system is not tied to beliefs of an “if this, then that”
T3:21.20  personal self will be useful as that certainty is translated to the  thought system of the truth and aids you in becoming certain of your
T3:22.15  might not. Realize that this game of chance is a pattern of the old  thought system that needs to be replaced by certainty. If you have
T3:22.15  game and have fun doing it. Do not bring this attitude into your new  thought system or your new life. If you are tired of the old, be
T4:7.6 The mind, once released from the ego's  thought system, has but to relearn the thought system of the truth.
T4:7.6  once released from the ego's thought system, has but to relearn the  thought system of the truth. Your mind, heart, and body have joined
T4:12.27  the pattern of your thoughts, even after the ego came to rule your  thought system. Without this pattern, the ego could have succeeded in
D:4.16  and we have heretofore referred to both the ego and to the ego's  thought system, but the ego is quite rightly seen as a system in and
D:4.24  rather than learning. Turn to this as the new pattern and to the  thought system of giving and receiving as one. Let the authority of
D:6.21  take it one step away from the thinking of the “if this, then that”  thought system we are leaving behind. As a non-learning being you are
D:11.4  and receiving is not of the separated thought of the separated  thought system of the separated self. Your acceptance of the concepts

Tx:11.30  world's reality, the real world must be in his mind. His insane  thoughts, too, must be in his mind, but an internal conflict of this
Tx:11.30  and the recognition that it encompasses completely opposed  thoughts within itself is intolerable. Therefore the mind projects
Tx:11.30  identification is salvation. Yet consider what has happened, for  thoughts do have consequences to the thinker.

Tx:13.51 Seeing is always outward. Were your  thoughts wholly of you, the thought system which you made would be
Tx:13.51  you, the thought system which you made would be forever dark. The  thoughts which the Mind of God's Son projects have all the power that
Tx:13.51  of God's Son projects have all the power that he gives to them. The  thoughts he shares with God are beyond his belief, but those he
Tx:13.64  be forgotten. The guiltless learner learns so easily because his  thoughts are free. Yet this entails the recognition that guilt is
Tx:14.30  but for Him with you. Bring, therefore, all your dark and secret  thoughts to Him and look upon them with Him. He holds the light,
Tx:14.48  is impossible. You have experienced lack of competition among your  thoughts, which, even though they may conflict, can occur to you
Tx:14.49 Yet you are also used to classifying some of your  thoughts as more important, larger or better, wiser or more
Tx:14.49  more productive and valuable than others. And this is true about the  thoughts which cross the mind of those who think they live apart. For
Tx:14.50  for you to learn that you have no basis at all for ordering your  thoughts. This lesson the Holy Spirit teaches by giving you shining
Tx:14.55  If you would remember your Father, let the Holy Spirit order your  thoughts and give only the answer with which He answers you. Everyone
Tx:15.41 How can you do this when you would prefer to have private  thoughts and keep them? The only way you could do that is to
Tx:15.41  holy instant what it is. You believe that it is possible to harbor  thoughts you would not share and that salvation lies in keeping your
Tx:15.41  thoughts you would not share and that salvation lies in keeping your  thoughts to yourself alone. For in private thoughts, known only to
Tx:15.41  lies in keeping your thoughts to yourself alone. For in private  thoughts, known only to yourself, you think you find a way to keep
Tx:15.43  condition for the holy instant does not require that you have no  thoughts which are not pure. But it does require that you have none
Tx:15.44  only to be vigilant against deception and seek not to protect the  thoughts you would keep unto yourself. Let the Holy Spirit's purity
Tx:15.78 Here there is no concealment and no private  thoughts. The willingness to communicate attracts communication to
Tx:15.91  then there will be no interference in communication, and your  thoughts will be as free as God's. As you let the Holy Spirit teach
Tx:15.101  you see some scraps of safety. Do not try longer to keep apart your  thoughts and the Thought that has been given you. When they are
Tx:16.69 The Holy Spirit asks only this little help of you. Whenever your  thoughts wander to a special relationship which still attracts you,
Tx:17.14 To forgive is merely to remember only the loving  thoughts you gave in the past and those that were given you. All the
Tx:17.20 If all but loving  thoughts has been forgotten, what remains is eternal. And the
Tx:17.20  reality and its value in your perception of it. In these loving  thoughts is the spark of beauty hidden in the ugliness of the unholy
Tx:17.25  and all their attributes come simply from what they are. Only the  Thoughts of God are true. And all that follows from them comes from
Tx:17.65  see it done. A situation is a relationship, being the joining of  thoughts. If problems are perceived, it is because the thoughts are
Tx:17.65  joining of thoughts. If problems are perceived, it is because the  thoughts are judged to be in conflict. But if the goal is truth, this
Tx:17.66  And it is their intrusion on the relationship, an error in your  thoughts about the situation, which then becomes the justification
Tx:18.88  the world is based. Here are all the illusions, all the twisted  thoughts, all the insane attacks, the fury, vengeance, and betrayal
Tx:19.96  at the mercy of things beyond you, forces you cannot control, and  thoughts that come to you against your will. It is your will to
Tx:20.19  and those who kill fear death. All these are but the fearful  thoughts of those who would adjust themselves to a world made fearful
Tx:20.26  with perfect gentleness upon each other and on ourselves. Here all  thoughts of any separation between us become impossible. You who were

Tx:21.85 Are thoughts then dangerous? To bodies, yes! The  thoughts that seem to kill are those which teach the thinker that he
Tx:22.8  it may seem to be. This is the emotion of secrecy, of private  thoughts, and of the body. This is the one emotion that opposes love
Tx:22.24  belief that caused the separation. It is the meaningless idea that  thoughts can leave the thinker's mind, be different from it, and in
Tx:22.24  be different from it, and in opposition to it. If this were true,  thoughts would not be the mind's extensions but its enemies. And here
Tx:22.26 Only your  thoughts have been impossible. Salvation cannot be. It is
Tx:23.20  this one maintains that each is separate and has a different set of  thoughts which sets him off from others. This principle evolves from
Tx:25.34  as the sun shines them to nothingness. And all their “evil”  thoughts and “sinful” hopes, their dreams of guilt and merciless
Tx:25.35  And for yourself? For think what it would do for you. Your “evil”  thoughts that haunt you now will seem increasingly remote and far
Tx:25.36  else. In any form. This can you bring to all the world and all the  thoughts that entered it and were mistaken for a little while. How
Tx:26.19  you reach it is apart from time. Here is the meeting-place where  thoughts are brought together—where conflicting values meet and all
Tx:26.83 Around you angels hover lovingly, to keep away all darkened  thoughts of sin and keep the light where it has entered in. Your
Tx:27.35  Yet only this appears to interfere with power unlimited and single  thoughts, complete and happy, without opposite. You do not know the

Tx:28.1  appears to have immediate effects. This world was over long ago. The  thoughts that made it are no longer in the mind that thought of them
Tx:29.65  fierce and wild? This does the child believe because he fears his  thoughts and gives them to the toys instead. And their reality
Tx:29.65  reality becomes his own because they seem to save him from his  thoughts. Yet do they keep his thoughts alive and real but seen
Tx:29.65  they seem to save him from his thoughts. Yet do they keep his  thoughts alive and real but seen outside himself, where they can turn

Tx:30.43  not exists. And what He knows exists forever, changelessly. For  thoughts endure as long as does the mind that thought of them. And in
Tx:30.43  And in the Mind of God there is no ending nor a time in which His  Thoughts were absent or could suffer change. Thoughts are not born
Tx:30.43  nor a time in which His Thoughts were absent or could suffer change.  Thoughts are not born and cannot die. They share the attributes of
Tx:30.43  of their creator, nor have they a separate life apart from his. The  thoughts you think are in your mind, as you are in the mind Which
Tx:30.44  Thoughts seem to come and go. Yet all this means is that you are

Tx:31.3  is strong enough to teach you that your will is not your own, your  thoughts do not belong to you, and even you are someone else.
Tx:31.12 Let us be still an instant and forget all things we ever learned, all  thoughts we had, and every preconception which we hold of what things
Tx:31.12  our minds and swept away. Be innocent of judgment, unaware of any  thoughts of evil or of good that ever crossed your mind of anyone.
Tx:31.21  the Christ Who calls to you. Be still and listen. Think not ancient  thoughts. Forget the dismal lessons that you learned about this Son
Tx:31.22  you hear it, you will understand you need but come away without the  thoughts you did not want and that were never true.
Tx:31.29 Yet is the body prisoner and not the mind. The body thinks no  thoughts. It has no power to learn, to pardon, nor enslave. It gives
Tx:31.30  and attack, of pain and age, of grief and suffering. Here are the  thoughts of sacrifice preserved, for here guilt rules and orders that
Tx:31.41 He has not left His  Thoughts! But you forgot His Presence and remembered not His Love. No
Tx:31.41  will lead you to confusion and despair. Yet has He never left His  Thoughts to die, without their Source forever in themselves. He has
Tx:31.41  die, without their Source forever in themselves. He has not left His  Thoughts! He could no more depart from them than they could keep Him
Tx:31.56  And what can think has choice and can be shown that different  thoughts have different consequence. So it can learn that everything
Tx:31.69 You could not recognize your “evil”  thoughts as long as you see value in attack. You will perceive them
Tx:31.69  then your concept of yourself is wholly changed. Your “evil”  thoughts have been forgiven with his, because you let them all affect
Tx:31.72  upon the good in him that you may not be frightened by your “evil”  thoughts because they do not cloud your view of him. And all this
Tx:31.74  darkness and perceive the terrified imaginings that come from guilty  thoughts and concepts born of fear. And what you see is hell, for
W1:4.1  idea for the day. In these practice periods, begin with noting the  thoughts that are crossing your mind for about a minute. Then apply
W1:4.1  Then apply the idea to them. If you are already aware of unhappy  thoughts, use them as subjects for the idea. Do not, however, select
W1:4.1  use them as subjects for the idea. Do not, however, select only the  thoughts you think are “bad.” You will find, if you train yourself to
W1:4.1  are “bad.” You will find, if you train yourself to look at your  thoughts, that they represent such a mixture that, in a sense, none
W1:4.2  the usual specificity is required. Do not be afraid to use “good”  thoughts as well as “bad.” None of them represents your real
W1:4.2  “good” thoughts as well as “bad.” None of them represents your real  thoughts, which are being covered up by them. The “good” ones of
W1:4.3  to recognize what is the same and what is different. In using your  thoughts for application of the idea for today, identify each thought
W1:4.5  kind, you may find the suspension of judgment in connection with  thoughts particularly difficult. Do not repeat these exercises more
W1:6.4 Again, if you resist applying the idea to some upsetting  thoughts more than to others, remind yourself of the two cautions
W1:7.5 It is the reason why your  thoughts do not mean anything and why they are like the things you
W1:8.1  you see only the past. No one really sees anything. He sees only his  thoughts projected outward. The mind's preoccupation with the past is
W1:8.4  search your mind for the usual minute or so, merely noting the  thoughts you find there. Name each one by the central figure or theme
W1:8.6 Then name each of your  thoughts specifically. For example:
W1:10.1 This idea applies to all the  thoughts of which you are aware or become aware in the practice
W1:10.1  the idea is applicable to all of them is that they are not your real  thoughts. We have made this distinction before and will again. You
W1:10.1  you do, you will have no doubt that what you once believed were your  thoughts did not mean anything.
W1:10.3 This aspect of the correction process began with the idea that the  thoughts of which you are aware are meaningless, outside rather than
W1:10.6 The exercises consist, as before, in searching your mind for all the  thoughts which are available to you, without selection or judgment.
W1:11.1  what you perceive. Today's idea introduces the concept that your  thoughts determine the world you see. Be glad indeed to practice the
W1:14.3 The idea for today is another step in learning to let go the  thoughts which you have written on the world, and see the Word of God
W1:15.1 It is because the  thoughts you think you think appear as images that you do not
W1:16.1  for today is a beginning step in dispelling the belief that your  thoughts have no effect. Everything you see is the result of your
W1:16.1  thoughts have no effect. Everything you see is the result of your  thoughts. There is no exception to this fact. Thoughts are not big or
W1:16.1  is the result of your thoughts. There is no exception to this fact.  Thoughts are not big or little, powerful or weak. They are merely
W1:16.2 There is no more self-contradictory concept than that of “idle  thoughts.” What gives rise to the perception of a whole world can
W1:16.3  thought is impossible. There is such a temptation to dismiss fear  thoughts as unimportant, trivial, and not worth bothering about that
W1:17.1  operates. You see no neutral things because you have no neutral  thoughts. It is always the thought that comes first, despite the
W1:17.5 I do not see a neutral _____, because my  thoughts about _____ are not neutral.
W1:17.7 I do not see a neutral wall, because my  thoughts about walls are not neutral. I do not see a neutral body,
W1:17.7  about walls are not neutral. I do not see a neutral body, because my  thoughts about bodies are not neutral.
W1:17.8  and really joyous. That is because you are unaware as yet of any  thoughts which are really true and therefore really happy.
W1:18.1 The idea for today is another step in learning that the  thoughts which give rise to what you see are never neutral or
W1:19.2  an “invasion of privacy.” Yet it is a fact that there are no private  thoughts. Despite your initial resistance to this idea, you will yet
W1:19.3  first, and then the mind should be carefully searched for the  thoughts it contains at that time. As you consider each one, name it
W1:21.3 Try, therefore, not to let the “little”  thoughts of anger escape you in the practice periods. Remember that
W1:21.4 As you search your mind for all the forms in which attack  thoughts present themselves, hold each one in mind and tell yourself:
W1:22.1 Today's idea accurately describes the way anyone who holds attack  thoughts in his mind must see the world. Having projected his anger
W1:22.1  vicious circle until he is willing to change how he sees. Otherwise,  thoughts of attack and counter-attack will preoccupy him and people
W1:23.1  you have makes up some segment of the world you see. It is with your  thoughts, then, that we must work if your perception of the world is
W1:23.2 If the cause of the world you see is attack  thoughts, you must learn that it is these thoughts which you do not
W1:23.2  world you see is attack thoughts, you must learn that it is these  thoughts which you do not want. There is no point in lamenting the
W1:23.2  it is merely an effect. But there is indeed a point in changing your  thoughts about the world. Here you are changing the cause. The
W1:23.3  “external reality” is a pictorial representation of your own attack  thoughts. One can well ask if this can be called seeing. Is not
W1:23.6  and devote about a minute to searching your mind for as many attack  thoughts as occur to you. As each one crosses your mind say:
W1:23.7 I can escape from the world by giving up attack  thoughts about _____.
W1:23.9 In the practice periods, be sure to include both your  thoughts of attacking and of being attacked. Their effects are
W1:23.9  the cause of the world you see. When you finally realize that  thoughts of attack and of being attacked are not different, you will
W1:26.2 Because your attack  thoughts will be projected, you will fear attack. And if you fear
W1:26.2  fear attack, you must believe that you are not invulnerable. Attack  thoughts therefore make you vulnerable in your own mind, which is
W1:26.2  make you vulnerable in your own mind, which is where the attack  thoughts are. Attack thoughts and invulnerability cannot be accepted
W1:26.2  in your own mind, which is where the attack thoughts are. Attack  thoughts and invulnerability cannot be accepted together. They
W1:26.3  introduces the thought that you always attack yourself. If attack  thoughts must entail the belief that you are vulnerable, their effect
W1:26.4  that vulnerability or invulnerability is the result of your own  thoughts. Nothing except your thoughts can attack you. Nothing except
W1:26.4  is the result of your own thoughts. Nothing except your  thoughts can attack you. Nothing except your thoughts can make you
W1:26.4  Nothing except your thoughts can attack you. Nothing except your  thoughts can make you think you are vulnerable. And nothing except
W1:26.4  can make you think you are vulnerable. And nothing except your  thoughts can prove to you this is not so.
W1:26.6  Any problem as yet unsettled which tends to recur in your  thoughts during the day is a suitable subject. You will not be able
W1:28.3  of tables, nor are you limiting its purpose to your little personal  thoughts.
W1:31.3 As you survey your inner world, merely let whatever  thoughts cross your mind come into your awareness, each to be
W1:31.3  special investment on your part. As you sit and quietly watch your  thoughts, repeat today's idea to yourself as often as you care to,
W1:33.2  as outside yourself, then close your eyes and survey your inner  thoughts with equal casualness. Try to remain equally uninvolved in
W1:34.1  of mind is clearly an internal matter. It must begin with your own  thoughts and then extend outward. It is from your peace of mind that
W1:34.3  for each of the longer practice periods. Search your mind for fear  thoughts, anxiety provoking situations, “offending” personalities or
W1:34.3  or events, or anything else about which you are harboring unloving  thoughts. Note them all casually, repeating the idea for today slowly
W1:34.8 I can replace my feelings of depression, anxiety or worry [or my  thoughts about this situation, personality, or event] with peace.
W1:37.8  the idea to what you see around you and to those who are in your  thoughts; or you may use any combination of these two phases of
W1:38.6  to time you may want to vary this procedure and add some relevant  thoughts of your own. You might like, for example, to include
W1:38.6  thoughts of your own. You might like, for example, to include  thoughts such as:
W1:39.6  idea to yourself. Then with closed eyes search out your unloving  thoughts in whatever form they appear—uneasiness, depression,
W1:39.7  situations, events, or personalities you associate with unloving  thoughts of any kind are suitable subjects for today's exercises. It
W1:39.9 My unloving  thoughts about _____ are keeping me in hell. My holiness is my
W1:41.4  when the truth is hidden deep within under a heavy cloud of insane  thoughts, dense and obscuring, yet representing all you see? Today we
W1:41.5  Try instead to get a sense of turning inward, past all the idle  thoughts of the world. Try to enter very deeply into your own mind,
W1:41.5  Try to enter very deeply into your own mind, keeping it clear of any  thoughts that might divert your attention.
W1:41.6  try to sink down and inward, away from the world and all the foolish  thoughts of the world. You are trying to reach past all these things.
W1:41.9 You can indeed afford to laugh at fear  thoughts, remembering that God goes with you wherever you go.
W1:42.1 The idea for today combines two very powerful  thoughts, both of major importance. It also sets forth a cause and
W1:42.4  idea again, quite slowly. After this, try to think of nothing except  thoughts which occur to you in relation to today's idea. You might
W1:42.7  at the amount of course-related understanding some of your own  thoughts contain. Let them come without censoring unless you realize
W1:42.7  your mind is merely wandering and you have let obviously irrelevant  thoughts intrude. You may also reach a point where no thoughts at all
W1:42.7  irrelevant thoughts intrude. You may also reach a point where no  thoughts at all seem to come to mind. If such interferences occur,
W1:42.7  repeat the idea once more, and then continue to look for related  thoughts in your mind.
W1:42.8 Remember, though, that active searching for relevant  thoughts is not appropriate for today's exercises. Try merely to step
W1:42.8  for today's exercises. Try merely to step back and let the  thoughts come. If you find this difficult, it is better to spend the
W1:42.8  then open, and so on, than it is to strain in order to find suitable  thoughts.
W1:42.9  beneficial. The idea for the day is a beginning step in bringing  thoughts together and teaching you that we are studying a unified
W1:43.8  your eyes, repeat today's idea again, and then let whatever relevant  thoughts occur to you add to the idea in your own personal way.
W1:43.8  thoughts occur to you add to the idea in your own personal way.  Thoughts such as:
W1:43.9  see the world as blessed. The world can show me myself. I see my own  thoughts, which are like God's.
W1:43.10  related more or less directly to today's idea is suitable. The  thoughts need not bear an obvious relationship to the idea, but they
W1:43.11 If you should find your mind wandering, if you begin to be aware of  thoughts which are clearly out of accord with today's idea, or if you
W1:43.11  period to occur in which you become preoccupied with irrelevant  thoughts. Return to the first phase of the exercises as often as
W1:44.5  form, you leave behind everything that you now believe and all the  thoughts which you have made up. Properly speaking, this is the
W1:44.7  It is merely taking its natural course. Try to observe your passing  thoughts without involvement and slip quietly by them.
W1:44.10  to think of light, formless and without limit, as you pass by the  thoughts of this world. And do not forget that they cannot hold you
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
W1:45.1  and what you think is real. Nothing that you think are your real  thoughts resembles your real thoughts in any respect. Nothing that
W1:45.1  Nothing that you think are your real thoughts resembles your real  thoughts in any respect. Nothing that you think you see bears any
W1:45.2 You think with the Mind of God. Therefore you share your  thoughts with Him, as He shares His with you. They are the same
W1:45.2  your thoughts with Him, as He shares His with you. They are the same  thoughts because they are thought by the same Mind. To share is to
W1:45.2  the same Mind. To share is to make alike or to make one. Nor do the  thoughts you think with the Mind of God leave your mind, because
W1:45.2  the thoughts you think with the Mind of God leave your mind, because  thoughts do not leave their source. Therefore your thoughts are in
W1:45.2  mind, because thoughts do not leave their source. Therefore your  thoughts are in the Mind of God, as you are. They are in your mind as
W1:45.2  mind as well, where He is. As you are part of His Mind, so are your  thoughts part of His thoughts.
W1:45.2  He is. As you are part of His Mind, so are your thoughts part of His  thoughts.
W1:45.3 Where, then, are your real  thoughts? Today we will attempt to reach them. We will have to look
W1:45.4  real. We will deny the world in favor of truth. We will not let the  thoughts of the world hold us back, and we will not let the beliefs
W1:45.6  as you do so. Spend a fairly short period in thinking a few relevant  thoughts of your own, keeping the idea in mind as you do so. After
W1:45.6  idea in mind as you do so. After you have added some four or five  thoughts of your own, repeat the idea again, and tell yourself gently:
W1:45.7 My real  thoughts are in my mind. I would like to find them.
W1:45.8 Then try to go past all the unreal  thoughts that cover the truth in your mind, and reach to the eternal.
W1:45.9 Under all the senseless  thoughts and mad ideas with which you have cluttered up your mind are
W1:45.9  and mad ideas with which you have cluttered up your mind are the  thoughts which you thought with God in the beginning. They are there
W1:45.10  Here is your mind joined with the Mind of God. Here are your  thoughts one with His.
W1:45.12  your mind's holiness. Stand aside, however briefly, from all  thoughts that are unworthy of Him Whose host you are. And thank Him
W1:45.12  that are unworthy of Him Whose host you are. And thank Him for the  thoughts He is thinking with you.
W1:49.3  God and of your Self. We will approach this happiest and holiest of  thoughts with confidence, knowing that in doing so we are joining our
W1:49.4  all the raucous shrieks and sick imaginings that cover your real  thoughts and obscure your eternal link with God. Sink deep into the
W1:49.4  deep into the peace that waits for you beyond the frantic, riotous  thoughts and sounds and sights of this insane world. You do not live
W1:50.4  deep into your consciousness. Repeat it, think about it, let related  thoughts come to help you recognize its truth, and allow peace to
W1:50.4  you like a blanket of protection and surety. Let no idle and foolish  thoughts enter to disturb the holy mind of the Son of God. Such is
W1:51.5 [4] These  thoughts do not mean anything. The thoughts of which I am aware do
W1:51.5 [4] These thoughts do not mean anything. The  thoughts of which I am aware do not mean anything because I am trying
W1:51.5  anything because I am trying to think without God. What I call “my”  thoughts are not my real thoughts. My real thoughts are the thoughts
W1:51.5  to think without God. What I call “my” thoughts are not my real  thoughts. My real thoughts are the thoughts I think with God. I am
W1:51.5  God. What I call “my” thoughts are not my real thoughts. My real  thoughts are the thoughts I think with God. I am not aware of them
W1:51.5  “my” thoughts are not my real thoughts. My real thoughts are the  thoughts I think with God. I am not aware of them because I have made
W1:51.5  I think with God. I am not aware of them because I have made my  thoughts to take their place. I am willing to recognize that my
W1:51.5  my thoughts to take their place. I am willing to recognize that my  thoughts do not mean anything and to let them go. I choose to have
W1:51.5  to have them be replaced by what they were intended to replace. My  thoughts are meaningless, but all creation lies in the thoughts I
W1:51.5  replace. My thoughts are meaningless, but all creation lies in the  thoughts I think with God.
W1:51.6  the reason I think because I am constantly trying to justify “my”  thoughts. I am constantly trying to make them true. I make all things
W1:52.4 [8] My mind is preoccupied with past  thoughts. I see only my own thoughts, and my mind is preoccupied
W1:52.4 [8] My mind is preoccupied with past thoughts. I see only my own  thoughts, and my mind is preoccupied with the past. What, then, can I
W1:52.6 [10] My  thoughts do not mean anything. I have no private thoughts. Yet it is
W1:52.6 [10] My thoughts do not mean anything. I have no private  thoughts. Yet it is only private thoughts of which I am aware. What
W1:52.6  mean anything. I have no private thoughts. Yet it is only private  thoughts of which I am aware. What can these thoughts mean? They do
W1:52.6  Yet it is only private thoughts of which I am aware. What can these  thoughts mean? They do not exist, and so they mean nothing. Yet my
W1:52.6  all that is really mine with my pitiful and meaningless “private”  thoughts?
W1:53.2 [11] My meaningless  thoughts are showing me a meaningless world. Since the thoughts of
W1:53.2  meaningless thoughts are showing me a meaningless world. Since the  thoughts of which I am aware do not mean anything, the world which
W1:53.2  and so is what it produces. Reality is not insane, and I have real  thoughts as well as insane ones. I can therefore see a real world if
W1:53.2  insane ones. I can therefore see a real world if I look to my real  thoughts as my guide for seeing.
W1:53.3 [12] I am upset because I see a meaningless world. Insane  thoughts are upsetting. They produce a world in which there is no
W1:53.5  Why should I continue to suffer from the effects of my own insane  thoughts when the perfection of creation is my home? Let me remember
W1:53.6 [15] My  thoughts are images which I have made. Whatever I see reflects my
W1:53.6  thoughts are images which I have made. Whatever I see reflects my  thoughts. It is my thoughts which tell me where I am and what I am.
W1:53.6  which I have made. Whatever I see reflects my thoughts. It is my  thoughts which tell me where I am and what I am. The fact that I see
W1:53.6  death shows me that I am seeing only the representation of my insane  thoughts and am not allowing my real thoughts to cast their
W1:53.6  the representation of my insane thoughts and am not allowing my real  thoughts to cast their beneficent light on what I see. Yet God's way
W1:54.2 [16] I have no neutral  thoughts. Neutral thoughts are impossible, because all thoughts have
W1:54.2 [16] I have no neutral thoughts. Neutral  thoughts are impossible, because all thoughts have power. They will
W1:54.2  no neutral thoughts. Neutral thoughts are impossible, because all  thoughts have power. They will either make a false world or lead me
W1:54.2  They will either make a false world or lead me to the real one. But  thoughts cannot be without effects. As the world I see arises from my
W1:54.2  real world rise before my eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My  thoughts cannot be neither true nor false. They must be one or the
W1:54.4  in experiencing the effects of my seeing. If I have no private  thoughts, I cannot see a private world. Even the mad idea of
W1:54.4  that sharing was a sharing of nothing. I can also call upon my real  thoughts, which share everything with everybody. As my thoughts of
W1:54.4  upon my real thoughts, which share everything with everybody. As my  thoughts of separation call to the separation thoughts of others, so
W1:54.4  with everybody. As my thoughts of separation call to the separation  thoughts of others, so my real thoughts awaken the real thoughts in
W1:54.4  of separation call to the separation thoughts of others, so my real  thoughts awaken the real thoughts in them. And the world my real
W1:54.4  separation thoughts of others, so my real thoughts awaken the real  thoughts in them. And the world my real thoughts show me will dawn on
W1:54.4  thoughts awaken the real thoughts in them. And the world my real  thoughts show me will dawn on their sight as well as mine.
W1:54.5 [19] I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my  thoughts. I am alone in nothing. Everything I think or say or do
W1:54.6 [20] I am determined to see. Recognizing the shared nature of my  thoughts, I am determined to see. I would look upon the witnesses
W1:55.3  vengeance. The world I see is hardly the representation of loving  thoughts. It is a picture of attack on everything by everything. It
W1:55.3  of the Love of God and the love of His Son. It is my own attack  thoughts which give rise to this picture. My loving thoughts will
W1:55.3  is my own attack thoughts which give rise to this picture. My loving  thoughts will save me from this perception of the world and give me
W1:55.4 [23] I can escape from the world by giving up attack  thoughts. Herein lies my salvation, and nowhere else. Without attack
W1:55.4  Herein lies my salvation, and nowhere else. Without attack  thoughts I could not see a world of attack. As forgiveness allows
W1:56.2 [26] My attack  thoughts are attacking my invulnerability. How can I know who I am
W1:56.2  I see. But God has kept my inheritance safe for me. My own real  thoughts will teach me what it is.
W1:56.6  see because God is in my mind. In my own mind, behind all my insane  thoughts of separation and attack, is the knowledge that all is one
W1:56.6  it. It has been kept for me in the Mind of God, Who has not left His  thoughts. And I, who am among them, am one with them and one with Him.
W1:57.4  another way of looking at it. I see everything upside down, and my  thoughts are the opposite of truth. I see the world as a prison for
W1:58.2  the holiness of the world is all I see, for I can picture only the  thoughts I hold about myself.
W1:59.6 [45] God is the Mind with which I think. I have no  thoughts I do not share with God. I have no thoughts apart from Him
W1:59.6  I think. I have no thoughts I do not share with God. I have no  thoughts apart from Him because I have no mind apart from His. As
W1:59.6  Him because I have no mind apart from His. As part of His Mind, my  thoughts are His and His thoughts are mine.
W1:59.6  apart from His. As part of His Mind, my thoughts are His and His  thoughts are mine.
W1:60.5  save me. There is not a moment in which His Voice fails to direct my  thoughts, guide my actions, and lead my feet. I am walking steadily
W1:61.7  with your eyes closed if the situation permits. Let a few related  thoughts come to you, and repeat the idea to yourself if your mind
W1:62.2  the truth. For this, attack must be replaced by forgiveness so that  thoughts of life may replace thoughts of death.
W1:62.2  must be replaced by forgiveness so that thoughts of life may replace  thoughts of death.
W1:62.8 Let related  thoughts come freely, for your heart will recognize these words, and
W1:63.5  can close your eyes, you will probably find it easier to let related  thoughts come to you in the minute or two which you should devote to
W1:64.7 Today, then, let us practice with these  thoughts:
W1:64.9  ten or 15 minutes to reflecting on this with closed eyes. Related  thoughts will come to help you if you remember the crucial importance
W1:64.10  made throughout the day, devote several minutes to reviewing these  thoughts and then to thinking about them and about nothing else. This
W1:64.11  do the exercises with your eyes closed, trying to concentrate on the  thoughts you are applying. At other times keep your eyes open after
W1:64.11  are applying. At other times keep your eyes open after reviewing the  thoughts and look slowly and unselectively about you, telling
W1:65.1  reminds you that you have no function other than this. Both of these  thoughts are obviously necessary for a total commitment. Salvation
W1:65.5  yourself once again, and watch your mind carefully to catch whatever  thoughts cross it.
W1:65.6 At first, make no attempt to concentrate only on  thoughts related to the idea for today. Rather, try to uncover each
W1:65.8 After a while, interfering  thoughts will become harder to find. Try, however, to continue a
W1:65.8  a minute or so longer, attempting to catch a few of the idle  thoughts which escaped your attention before, but do not strain or
W1:66.5 Begin the ten- to fifteen-minute practice period by reviewing these  thoughts:
W1:66.7  if you do not yet accept the conclusion. It is only if the first two  thoughts are wrong that the conclusion could be false. Let us, then,
W1:67.2  truth about you and then spend a few minutes adding some relevant  thoughts, such as:
W1:67.5 After you have gone over several such related  thoughts, try to let all thoughts drop away for a brief preparatory
W1:67.5  you have gone over several such related thoughts, try to let all  thoughts drop away for a brief preparatory interval, and then try to
W1:67.6  repeat the idea for today from time to time to replace distracting  thoughts. You may also find that this is not sufficient and that you
W1:67.6  this is not sufficient and that you need to continue adding other  thoughts related to the truth about yourself. Yet perhaps you will
W1:70.14  yourself that your salvation comes from you and nothing but your own  thoughts can hamper your progress. You are free from all external
W1:72.3  like; he does something that displeases us, he “betrays” his hostile  thoughts in his behavior.
W1:74.3 Begin the longer practice periods by repeating these  thoughts several times, slowly and with firm determination to
W1:74.5 Then spend several minutes in adding some related  thoughts, such as:
W1:74.7  this introductory phase, be sure to deal quickly with any conflict  thoughts that may cross your mind. Tell yourself immediately:
W1:74.8 There is no will but God's. These conflict  thoughts are meaningless.
W1:R2.3  it. Do not allow your intent to waver in the face of distracting  thoughts. Realize that, whatever form such thoughts may take, they
W1:R2.3  the face of distracting thoughts. Realize that, whatever form such  thoughts may take, they have no meaning and no power. Replace them
W1:R2.4  and the life. Refuse to be side-tracked into detours, illusions, and  thoughts of death. You are dedicated to salvation. Be determined each
W1:91.10  honesty, and then devote several minutes to allowing your mistaken  thoughts about your attributes to be corrected, and their opposites
W1:91.13  meager, are fully supported by the strength of God and all His  thoughts. It is from Them your strength will come. It is through
W1:93.3  but from a very different reference point from which such idle  thoughts are meaningless. These thoughts are not according to God's
W1:93.3  reference point from which such idle thoughts are meaningless. These  thoughts are not according to God's Will. These weird beliefs He does
W1:93.12  however, to do so when you can. At least remember to repeat these  thoughts each hour:
W1:93.15  disturbing, quickly dispel the illusion of fear by repeating these  thoughts again. Should you be tempted to become angry with someone,
W1:94.1  world are still, the sights of this world disappear, and all the  thoughts that this world ever held are wiped away forever by this one
W1:96.5  its function then, it has no peace, and happiness is alien to its  thoughts.
W1:96.8 Your Self retains its  thoughts, and they remain within your mind and in the Mind of God.
W1:96.8  in your name that it was done. Thus is salvation kept among the  thoughts your Self holds dear and cherishes for you.
W1:96.12 Salvation comes from my One Self. Its  thoughts are mine to use.
W1:96.13 Then seek its  thoughts, and claim them as your own.
W1:96.14 These are your own real  thoughts you have denied, and let your mind go wandering in a world
W1:96.14  a world of dreams, to find illusions in their place. Here are your  thoughts, the only ones you have. Salvation is among them; find it
W1:96.15 If you succeed, the  thoughts that come to you will tell you you are saved and that your
W1:97.6  will increase in healing power each time someone accepts them as his  thoughts and uses them to heal.
W1:98.13  with you, be thankful and lay down all earthly tasks, all little  thoughts and limited ideas, and spend a happy time again with Him.
W1:99.3  illusions thinks them real. They have existence in that they are  thoughts. And yet they are not real because the mind that thinks
W1:99.3  And yet they are not real because the mind that thinks these  thoughts is separate from God.
W1:99.4 What joins the separated mind and  thoughts with Mind and thought which are forever one? What plan could
W1:99.9  mistakes enter the darkened places of your mind which thought the  thoughts that never were His Will.
W1:99.10  belongs to God, as does the rest. It does not think its solitary  thoughts and make them real by hiding them from Him. Let in the
W1:99.15 Forgive all  thoughts which would oppose the truth of your completeness, unity,
W1:100.1  Father's plan. Salvation must reverse the mad belief in separate  thoughts and separate bodies which lead separate lives and go their
W1:100.9  that you succeed! Look deep within you, undismayed by all the little  thoughts and foolish goals you pass as you ascend to meet the Christ
W1:101.9  your practice periods, and then attempt again to find the joy these  thoughts will introduce into your mind. Give these five minutes
W1:107.4  has come, all pain is over, for there is no room for transitory  thoughts and dead ideas to linger in your mind. Truth occupies your
W1:108.1  the resolution, born of peace, of all your conflicts and mistaken  thoughts into one concept which is wholly true? Even that one will
W1:109.11  passed by, to every Thought of God, and to the Mind in Which these  Thoughts were born and where they rest. And we remind them of their
W1:110.11  will remember Him throughout the day with thankful hearts and loving  thoughts for all who meet with us today, for it is thus that we
W1:R3.5  twice a day, or longer if you would prefer, to considering the  thoughts that are assigned. Read over the ideas and comments which
W1:R3.6  them wisely, being helped in its decisions by the One Who gave the  thoughts to you. What can you trust but what is in your mind? Have
W1:R3.6  start, and then lean back in quiet faith and let the mind employ the  thoughts you gave as they were given you for it to use.
W1:R3.14  now. Do not forget your Father's need of you as you review these  thoughts He gave to you.
W1:122.3  lets you recognize the Son of God and clears your memory of all dead  thoughts so that remembrance of your Father can arise across the
W1:124.4  and remembrance. We feel Him in our hearts. Our minds contain His  thoughts; our eyes behold His loveliness in all we look upon. Today
W1:124.6  to come, as easily as in the ones who walk beside them now. Their  thoughts are timeless and apart from distance as apart from time.
W1:125.3  we will hear God's Voice today without intrusion of our petty  thoughts, without our personal desires, and without all judgment of
W1:126.2  from you and able to behave in ways which have no bearing on your  thoughts, nor theirs on [yourself]. Therefore your attitudes have no
W1:126.8  will need help to make this meaningful because it is so alien to the  thoughts to which you are accustomed. But the Help you need is there.
W1:126.10  understand forgiveness and seek sanctuary in the quiet place where  thoughts are changed and false beliefs laid by. Repeat today's idea,
W1:127.8  own reality and what love means. He will shine through your idle  thoughts today and help you understand the truth of love. In loving
W1:128.4 Let nothing which relates to body  thoughts delay your progress to salvation, nor permit temptation to
W1:129.11  and take a moment to confirm your choice by laying by whatever  thoughts you have, and dwelling briefly only upon this:
W1:131.10  not exist, while Heaven is the place he cannot find. Leave foolish  thoughts like these behind today, and turn your mind to true ideas
W1:131.11  images that we held dear, with true ideas arising in the place of  thoughts which have no meaning, no effect, and neither source nor
W1:131.13  from those I made. The world I seek I did not make alone. The  thoughts I want to think are not my own.
W1:131.14  eyes are closed, the senseless world you think is real. Review the  thoughts as well which are compatible with such a world and which you
W1:131.18  today should be a time of special gladness, and refrain from dismal  thoughts and meaningless laments. Salvation's time has come. Today is
W1:132.1  can save the world except your Self? Belief is powerful indeed. The  thoughts you hold are mighty, and illusions are as strong in their
W1:132.1  real and does not doubt it. Nor can he be swayed by questioning his  thoughts' effects. It is but when their source is raised to question
W1:132.2  easily achieved, for anyone is free to change his mind, and all his  thoughts change with it. Now the source of thought has shifted, for
W1:132.3  from what you thought before. You free the future from all ancient  thoughts of seeking what you do not want to find. The present now
W1:132.5  came unwillingly to what was made already, hardly waiting for your  thoughts to give it meaning. Yet in truth you found exactly what you
W1:132.9  from all things you ever thought it was by merely changing all the  thoughts that gave it these appearances. The sick are healed as you
W1:132.9  gave it these appearances. The sick are healed as you let go all  thoughts of sickness, and the dead arise when you let thoughts of
W1:132.9  you let go all thoughts of sickness, and the dead arise when you let  thoughts of life replace all thoughts you ever held of death.
W1:132.9  and the dead arise when you let thoughts of life replace all  thoughts you ever held of death.
W1:132.12  And as it was His thought by which you were created, so it is your  thoughts which made it and must set it free that you may know the
W1:132.12  thoughts which made it and must set it free that you may know the  thoughts you share with God.
W1:132.15 Today our purpose is to free the world from all the idle  thoughts we ever held about it and about all living things we see
W1:132.19  world as well as to the ones you see near by as you send out these  thoughts to bless the world. But you will sense your own release,
W1:134.18 Let him be freed from all the  thoughts you had of sin in him. And now you are prepared for freedom.
W1:135.3  is based on this insane belief. And all its structures, all its  thoughts and doubts, its penalties and heavy armaments, its legal
W1:135.11 These are the  thoughts in need of healing, and the body will respond with health
W1:136.14  God has given you is not the truth right now, as it must be. The  thoughts of God are quite apart from time. For time is but another
W1:136.21  be preserved by careful watching. If you let your mind harbor attack  thoughts, yield to judgment, or make plans against uncertainties to
W1:137.12  succeed. Today we ask that only truth will occupy our minds, that  thoughts of healing will this day go forth from what is healed to
W1:137.14  And so we will begin the day with this and give ten minutes to these  thoughts with which we will conclude today at night as well:
W1:137.16  and to receive the Word of God to take the place of all the foolish  thoughts that ever were imagined. Now we come together to make well
W1:139.13  our dedication to our cause today each hour, as we lay aside all  thoughts that would distract us from our holy aim. For several
W1:140.8  not further from us than ourselves. It is as near to us as our own  thoughts—so close it is impossible to lose. We need but seek it,
W1:140.11  we go to sleep. Our only preparation is to let our interfering  thoughts be laid aside, not separately, but all of them as one. They
W1:R4.1  following. Thus we review the recent lessons and their central  thoughts in such a way as will facilitate the readiness which we
W1:R4.4  which fully guarantees salvation to the Son. For in his mind no  thoughts can dwell but those his Father shares. Lack of forgiveness
W1:R4.5  to be but what they are—defenses which protect your unforgiving  thoughts from being seen and recognized. Their purpose is to show you
W1:R4.7  you in freedom and in peace. Open your mind and clear it of all  thoughts that would deceive, and let this thought alone engage it
W1:R4.9  lines which God appointed and to place His Mind in charge of all the  thoughts you will receive that day. They will not come from you
W1:R4.11  let them be received where they were meant to be. We add no other  thoughts, but let them be the messages they are. We need no more than
W1:151.13  of the thought with which the day begins. And then we watch our  thoughts, appealing silently to Him Who sees the elements of truth in
W1:151.14 Give Him your  thoughts, and He will give them back as miracles which joyously
W1:151.15  15 more before you go to sleep. Your ministry begins as all your  thoughts are purified. So are you taught to teach the Son of God the
W1:151.15  Voice for God give honor to God's Son. And everyone will share the  thoughts with you which He has retranslated in your mind.
W1:151.17  we give thanks the world unites with us and happily accepts our holy  thoughts which Heaven has corrected and made pure. Now has our
W1:152.15  Father. He will substitute the peace of God for all your frantic  thoughts, the truth of God for self-deceptions, and God's Son for
W1:153.9  has any meaning. Now we cannot fear, for we have left all fearful  thoughts behind. And in defenselessness we stand secure, serenely
W1:153.13  which we put away the toys of guilt and lock our quaint and childish  thoughts of sin forever from the pure and holy minds of Heaven's
W1:153.16  on us, and we will be unable to withdraw a little while and turn our  thoughts to God.
W1:156.2 We are not inconsistent in the  thoughts that we present in our curriculum. Truth must be true
W1:157.5  so transform your mind that it becomes the touchstone for the holy  thoughts of God.
W1:158.7  touched, a purity undimmed by errors, pitiful mistakes, and fearful  thoughts of guilt from dreams of sin. It sees no separation. And it
W1:161.4  all minds, for every mind is one. Such is the truth. Yet do these  thoughts make clear the meaning of creation? Do these words bring
W1:162.4  practice simply. For the words we use are mighty, and they need no  thoughts beyond themselves to change the mind of him who uses them.
W1:163.1  which the wish to be as you are not may come to tempt you. All such  thoughts are but reflections of the worshipping of death as savior
W1:163.8 Death's worshipers may be afraid. And yet can  thoughts like these be fearful? If they saw that it is only this
W1:163.9  things, to be like You and part of You forever. We accept Your  thoughts as ours, and our will is one with Yours eternally. Amen.
W1:165.1  except your own denial of the truth which lies beyond? What but your  thoughts of misery and death obscure the perfect happiness and the
W1:167.1  the one condition in which all that God created share. Like all His  thoughts, it has no opposite. There is no death because what God
W1:167.8  not share with them. The thought of death is not the opposite to  thoughts of life. Forever unopposed by opposites of any kind, the
W1:167.8  to thoughts of life. Forever unopposed by opposites of any kind, the  thoughts of God remain forever changeless with the power to extend
W1:167.11  forever and forever. He is Lord of what we think today. And in His  thoughts, which have no opposite, we understand there is one life and
W1:167.11  one life and that we share with Him, with all creation, with their  thoughts as well, whom He created in a unity of life that cannot
W1:R5.3  the Word You offer us to unify our practicing, as we review the  thoughts that You have given us.
W1:R5.4 This is the thought which should precede the  thoughts that we review. Each one but clarifies some aspect of this
W1:R5.6  alone knows love. This Self alone is perfectly consistent in Its  thoughts, knows Its Creator, understands Itself, is perfect in Its
W1:R5.10 Release me as you practice once again the  thoughts I brought to you from Him Who sees your bitter need and
W1:R5.10  and knows the answer God has given Him. Together we review these  thoughts. Together we devote our time and effort to them. And
W1:R5.14  day. No thought that we review but we surround with it and use the  thoughts to hold it up before our minds and keep it clear in our
W1:181.8 And we will also use these  thoughts to keep us safe throughout the day. We do not seek for long
W1:182.7  He does not belong and where He lives an outcast in a world of alien  thoughts. His patience has no limits. He will wait until you hear His
W1:183.3  a star; a miracle of grace. The sick arise, healed of their sickly  thoughts. The blind can see; the deaf can hear; the sorrowful cast
W1:183.7 Hear nothing else. Let all your  thoughts become anchored on this. No other words we use except at the
W1:183.9  the all-encompassing idea which holds your mind completely. Let all  thoughts be still except this one. And to all other thoughts respond
W1:183.9  Let all thoughts be still except this one. And to all other  thoughts respond with this, and see God's Name replace the thousand
W1:183.9  and see God's Name replace the thousand little names you gave your  thoughts, not realizing that there is One Name for all there is and
W1:183.11  unneeded when God's Son calls on his Father's Name. His Father's  Thoughts become his own. He makes his claim to all his Father gave,
W1:186.13  to you, although He knows that you have everything already. He has  thoughts which answer every need His Son perceives, although He sees
W1:187.2  perceive it yours. Yet we have learned that things but represent the  thoughts that make them. And you do not lack for proof that when you
W1:187.5  thought remains and grows in strength as it is reinforced by giving.  Thoughts extend as they are shared, for they cannot be lost. There is
W1:188.3  forever and forever. What it gives must be eternal. It removes all  thoughts of the ephemeral and valueless. It brings renewal to all
W1:188.6  give the gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer world and let your  thoughts fly to the peace within. They know the way. For honest
W1:188.6  your thoughts fly to the peace within. They know the way. For honest  thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly things outside yourself,
W1:188.6  outside yourself, become the holy messengers of God Himself. These  thoughts you think with Him. They recognize their home. And they
W1:188.8  coming nearer to the light in us today. We take our wandering  thoughts and gently bring them back to where they fall in line with
W1:188.8  and gently bring them back to where they fall in line with all the  thoughts we share with God. We will not let them stray. We let the
W1:189.7 Simply do this: be still and lay aside all  thoughts of what you are and what God is, all concepts you have
W1:189.10  look for them. Our hands are open to receive Your gifts. We have no  thoughts we think apart from You and cherish no beliefs of what we
W1:190.5 It is your  thoughts alone that cause you pain. Nothing external to your mind can
W1:190.6  does nothing. It has no effects at all. It merely represents your  thoughts. And it will change entirely as you elect to change your
W1:190.7  represent its pains. Your strange desires bring it evil dreams. Your  thoughts of death envelop it in fear, while in your kind forgiveness
W1:190.9  where Heaven's peace holds all things still at last. Lay down all  thoughts of danger and of fear. Let no attack enter with you. Lay
W1:191.5 But let today's idea find a place among your  thoughts, and you have risen far above the world and all the worldly
W1:191.5  thoughts, and you have risen far above the world and all the worldly  thoughts that hold it prisoner. And from this place of safety and
W1:192.7  born of error. We are lost in mists of shifting dreams and fearful  thoughts, our eyes shut tight against the light, our minds engaged in
W1:193.4 The One Whom God created to replace the foolish  thoughts which crept into the mind of His most holy Son with peace
W1:194.2  passed all anxiety, all pits of hell, all blackness of depression,  thoughts of sin, and devastation brought about by guilt. Accept
W1:194.8  thus you call the memory of Him to come again, replacing all your  thoughts of sin and evil with the truth of love. Think you the world
W1:195.1  seems to suffer more than they. How pitiful and deprecating are such  thoughts! For who has cause for thanks while others have less cause,
W1:196.3  see within today's idea the light of resurrection, looking past all  thoughts of crucifixion and of death to thoughts of liberation and of
W1:196.3  looking past all thoughts of crucifixion and of death to  thoughts of liberation and of life.
W1:196.7  shift has been accomplished, you cannot perceive that it is but your  thoughts that bring you fear and your deliverance depends on you.
W1:196.8  you understand it is impossible that you be hurt except by your own  thoughts, the fear of God must disappear. You do not now believe that
W1:197.2  easily are God and guilt confused by those who know not what their  thoughts can do. Deny your strength, and weakness must become
W1:197.9  that you do is given unto Him. All that you think can only be His  thoughts, sharing with Him the holy thoughts of God. Earn now the

W2:I.11  deep experience which should come afterwards. These special  thoughts should be reviewed each day, each one of them to be
W2:221.2  one intent—to hear our Father's answer to our call, to let our  thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear Him speak to us of what
W2:222.1  I live and move, the Spirit Which directs my actions, offers me Its  thoughts, and guarantees my safety from all pain. He covers me with
W2:223.1  I have no other home, and I do not exist apart from Him. He has no  thoughts that are not part of me, and I have none but those which are

W2:233.1 Father, I give You all my  thoughts today. I would have none of mine. In place of them, give me
W2:234.1  So brief the interval, there was no lapse in continuity nor break in  thoughts which are forever unified as one. Nothing has ever happened
W2:236.2 Father, my mind is open to Your  thoughts and closed today to every thought but Yours. I rule my mind
W2:WIW.2  Here was perception born, for knowledge could not cause such insane  thoughts. But eyes deceive, and ears hear falsely. Now mistakes
W2:249.2  them, held them in a vise of bitterness, and frightened them with  thoughts of violence and death. Now would we rest again in You, as
W2:WIS.3  of all illusions, which but stand for things imagined, issuing from  thoughts which are untrue. They are the “proof” that what has no

W2:254.2 Today we let no ego thoughts direct our words or actions. When such  thoughts occur, we quietly step back and look at them, and then we

W2:265.1  What is reflected here is in God's Mind. The images I see reflect my  thoughts. Yet is my mind at one with God's. And so I can perceive
W2:265.2 In quiet would I look upon the world, which but reflects Your  thoughts and mine as well. Let me remember that they are the same,

W2:278.2 Father, I ask for nothing but the truth. I have had many foolish  thoughts about myself and my creation and have brought a dream of
W2:281.1  he has forgotten who he is, and that he is as You created him. Your  Thoughts can only bring me happiness. If ever I am sad or hurt or
W2:281.1  think and put my little, meaningless ideas in place of where Your  Thoughts belong and where They are. I can be hurt by nothing but my
W2:281.1  Thoughts belong and where They are. I can be hurt by nothing but my  thoughts. The thoughts I think with You can only bless. The thoughts
W2:281.1  and where They are. I can be hurt by nothing but my thoughts. The  thoughts I think with You can only bless. The thoughts I think with

W2:285.1  but them to come and realize my invitation will be answered by the  thoughts to which they have been sent by me. And I will ask for only
W2:WIRW.3 What need has such a mind for  thoughts of death, attack, and murder? What can it perceive
W2:291.2 This day my mind is quiet to receive the  thoughts You offer me. And I accept what comes from You instead of
W2:293.1 All fear is past because its source is gone and all its  thoughts gone with it. Love remains the only present state, whose
W2:294.1  for what must die? And yet a neutral thing does not see death, for  thoughts of fear are not invested there, nor is a mockery of love
W2:296.1  You speak through me, for I would use no words but Yours and have no  thoughts which are apart from Yours, for only Yours are true. I would
W2:303.1 Watch with me, angels; watch with me today. Let all God's holy  thoughts surround me and be still with me while Heaven's Son is born.
W2:WICR.1 Creation is the sum of all God's  thoughts, in number infinite and everywhere without all limit. Only
W2:WICR.1  that It created suffers any change. Forever and forever are God's  thoughts exactly as they were and as they are, unchanged through time

W2:326.1  Heaven of Your Love, where earth will disappear and separate  thoughts unite in glory as the Son of God.
W2:WIE.4 To know Reality is not to see the ego and its  thoughts, its works, its acts, its laws and its beliefs, its dreams,

C:31.2  is not so unacceptable to you as the idea of sharing one mind. Your  thoughts, you feel, are your own, private and sacrosanct. These
C:31.2  your own, private and sacrosanct. These highly guarded and regarded  thoughts are what A Course in Miracles calls body thoughts.
C:31.2  and regarded thoughts are what A Course in Miracles calls body  thoughts. Distinctions are made in many religions and philosophies
C:31.2  by the body—from thought of a higher order, or spiritual thought.  Thoughts related to your personal self and the “laws” of the body,
C:31.2  and the “laws” of the body, such as those of survival, are not the  thoughts of the true Self. This is the clarification that needs to be
C:31.11  the upside-down perception that causes you to protect your private  thoughts and see them as the seat of yourself calls for the exact
C:31.11  true source of conflict. And, yet again, your perception of your  thoughts as yourself is the closest answer to the truth that you were
C:31.11  come up with. There is a part of you that knows that you have higher  thoughts, and knows that these higher thoughts are your Self. Rather
C:31.11  knows that you have higher thoughts, and knows that these higher  thoughts are your Self. Rather than discriminating between higher and
C:31.11  are your Self. Rather than discriminating between higher and lower  thoughts, you have aggrandized all your thoughts and given them an
C:31.11  between higher and lower thoughts, you have aggrandized all your  thoughts and given them an identity we have called the ego. Without

C:31.15  You neither want to share your most negative nor your most positive  thoughts about yourself. These are your great secrets, the secrets
C:31.15  your great secrets, the secrets that fill your mind day-to-day with  thoughts that keep you from your Self.

T1:2.3 To experience the truth and apply to that experience the  thoughts of the ego-mind, the same thoughts that were applied to
T1:2.3  and apply to that experience the thoughts of the ego-mind, the same  thoughts that were applied to former experiences of the truth, would
T1:2.4  responses flow. As your heart is the Source of your true Self, your  thoughts, once removed from those of the ego-mind are the expression
T1:2.5  Thoughts that were guarded by the ego-mind were in need of being set
T1:2.7  to this situation in the past was focus. You thus applied your  thoughts to learning subjects of a specific nature. Through this
T1:2.7  These rewards have further emphasized the importance of such focused  thoughts and thus further entrenched the ego-mind. To think that you
T1:2.10 The  thoughts of your ego-mind were ruled by the nature of the body. To
T1:2.10  ruled by the nature of the body. To exist as creatures whose only  thoughts are of survival of the body is to exist in a lower order.
T1:3.5  And yet you dare not try to live without it. Why? Because of the  thoughts of the ego-mind. The ego-mind is concerned only with its own
T1:3.8  change your mind about who you are and thus about the nature of your  thoughts.
T1:3.21 These  thoughts border on the sacrilegious. Miracles are the realm of Jesus
T1:3.23  would be to have ideas of grandeur not meant for you. Here your  thoughts might stray to the performing of many miracles. What a media
T1:3.24  selfish. You might be proved to have no faith. You might succumb to  thoughts of grandeur.
T1:4.2  You have not been asked to request a specific miracle. Although your  thoughts have naturally gone to consideration of the specific, this
T1:4.2  ego-mind. This Treatise must change that habit in order for all your  thoughts to become the miracles that express the truth of who you
T1:4.9 Your responsibilities shift completely under the laws of God. Your  thoughts are released from their concentration on what exists outside
T1:4.10  for and this lesson will become more clear. While your first  thoughts will automatically go to a lengthy list of those concerns
T2:1.9  and form in your thinking of them. A desire to paint, in your  thoughts becomes a completed painting that you hang upon your wall.
T2:1.11  are a creator but a creator who creates with thought unlike to any  thoughts you have had before. Your thoughts of a grand piano will
T2:1.11  with thought unlike to any thoughts you have had before. Your  thoughts of a grand piano will never create a grand piano. What kind
T2:1.11  of a grand piano will never create a grand piano. What kind of  thoughts, then, would create a pianist?
T2:1.12  Thoughts joined in unity. Thoughts joined in unity can be likened to
T2:1.12 Thoughts joined in unity.  Thoughts joined in unity can be likened to thinking without thought.
T2:1.13 Ego desires cause one to think of a grand piano.  Thoughts joined in unity hear music. Ego desires cause one to think
T2:1.13  Ego desires cause one to think of an elaborately framed painting.  Thoughts joined in unity see beauty. You are used to thinking that if
T2:1.13  you will never reach the goals associated with those tangible steps.  Thoughts joined in unity create without goals or planning, without
T2:4.8  not reacted to the idea of calling with two sets of feelings and  thoughts. One set of thoughts and feelings contain all that one might
T2:4.8  idea of calling with two sets of feelings and thoughts. One set of  thoughts and feelings contain all that one might attribute to the
T2:4.8  of a gift of high value, or in other words, a treasure. One set of  thoughts and feelings contain all that one might attribute to the
T2:4.8  onset of yet another responsibility, another obligation. One set of  thoughts recognizes that something has been given. The other set
T2:4.9 While two sets of  thoughts and feelings exist, the only way to come to peace with them
T2:4.9  the willingness to move through the conflict of two opposing sets of  thoughts and feelings to the place of unity.
T2:4.10  with regard to calling is recognizing the dualistic nature of your  thoughts and feelings. A second step is willingness to move past both
T2:7.17 How often have you hidden  thoughts and feelings because you question whether they are
T2:7.17  and feelings because you question whether they are legitimate  thoughts and feelings? For some of you this answer has changed
T2:7.17  you, you have become less, rather than more forthcoming about your  thoughts and feelings since taking this Course. You have done so out
T2:7.17  have done so out of a desire to be truthful, a desire to not express  thoughts and feelings unworthy of your real Self. You may have
T2:7.17  unworthy of your real Self. You may have increasingly denied  thoughts and feelings you would judge as negative or bad. Or you may
T2:7.19  that comes your way? No, but this does mean that you bring the  thoughts and feelings that arise to the place within your heart that
T2:7.19  to discriminate, to separate the false from the true, for your ego  thoughts cannot long abide in the holy place of your heart. Then,
T2:12.1 Miracles are  thoughts and I am the corrector of false thinking. You have been made
T3:3.9  of this Course into practice. If not quite this drastic, your  thoughts might tell you that if you were in another job, devoid of
T3:3.9  yourself unsuitable for further learning. Whether you think such  thoughts consciously or not, there is a part of you that still
T3:7.2  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 thought or idea,
T3:8.3  mind. Thus bitterness has to do with your feelings more so than your  thoughts. The ego but played upon these feelings, using them as
T3:8.3  of illusion for your feelings are as real to you as have been the  thoughts of your ego-mind. While anything other than the truth
T3:10.5  consciously choosing not to place blame will short-circuit the many  thoughts that you would attach to this idea, thoughts that have

T3:10.8  remain within your thoughts, like echoes of a former time. These  thoughts are remembered messages and so must, like all the rest, be
T3:10.9 The first step in being able to forget such  thoughts is in recognizing them as separate and distinct from the
T3:10.9  thoughts is in recognizing them as separate and distinct from the  thoughts of your right mind or Christ-mind. This will be easy because
T3:10.9  of your right mind or Christ-mind. This will be easy because the  thoughts of the ego-mind were always harsh with you or with others.
T3:10.9  were always harsh with you or with others. The Christ-mind and the  thoughts that come from the voice of the Christ-mind will be gentle.
T3:10.9  that come from the voice of the Christ-mind will be gentle. The  thoughts of the ego-mind will come as disguises to certainty. Given
T3:10.9  be easily seen through and the uncertainty behind them revealed.  Thoughts of the Christ-mind will hold a certainty that cannot be
T3:13.14  Ideas, in the context in which we are speaking of them here, are  thoughts or images originating from the Self and being represented by
T3:20.1  and the choices that lie before you will be choices of where your  thoughts and actions will have the greatest effect.
T3:20.3 Again, do not let your  thoughts stray to benefiting and affecting others. In unity, all
T3:21.12  as part of what makes you certain of your personal self, are the  thoughts of your mind, thoughts that while certainly changeable, are
T3:21.12  you certain of your personal self, are the thoughts of your mind,  thoughts that while certainly changeable, are unmistakably claimed to
T3:21.15  and so on. The aspect that has to do with beliefs is linked to your  thoughts and ideas about the world you live in and the “type” of
T3:21.16  world view cannot help but be different than your own—those whose  thoughts are surely as distinct and separate as are your own.
T3:21.18  your identity, an identity that has nothing to do with the  thoughts of a separated mind or the circumstances of the physical
T4:10.2  or be anything beyond that which you now are, without learning. Your  thoughts might stray to ideas about experiencing, rather than
T4:12.20  now in the state of Christ-consciousness, the pattern of the old  thoughts will continue until they are replaced by a new pattern. That
T4:12.27  of that design, a pattern that was part of the pattern of your  thoughts, even after the ego came to rule your thought system.
D:4.9 Your prison was created by the separated  thoughts of the separated thought “system.” Systems, as you may

Tx:3.32  any given time determines what you do, and action must occur in  time. Knowledge is timeless, because certainty is not questionable.
Tx:3.33 The questioning mind perceives itself in  time and therefore looks for future answers. The unquestioning mind
Tx:3.37  not strangers to each other. Knowledge preceded both perception and  time and will ultimately replace them. That is the real meaning of
Tx:3.54  to regard himself as both separated and unseparated at the same  time. It is impossible to undertake a confusion as fundamental as

Tx:3.74  is an order of reality or a system of thought that is real enough in  time, though not in eternity. All beliefs are real to the believer.
Tx:4.35  because no one maintains that the ego existed before that point in  time. The religiously ego-oriented believe that the Soul existed
Tx:4.41  in its totality transcends the sum of its parts. Christmas is not a  time; it is a state of mind. The Christ Mind wills from the Soul,
Tx:5.2  themselves call forth different kinds of responses at the same  time and thus deprive others of the joy of responding
Tx:5.11  a protection, inspiring the beginning of the Atonement at the same  time. Before that, there was no need for healing and no one was
Tx:5.17  and will be when they have been healed. This alteration of the  time sequence should be quite familiar, because it is very similar to
Tx:5.17  should be quite familiar, because it is very similar to the shift in  time perception which the miracle introduces. The Holy Spirit is the
Tx:5.18  alive by transmitting it from His Mind to yours as long as there is  time. It is partly His and partly yours. The miracle itself is just
Tx:5.19 The Atonement and the separation began at the same  time. When man made the ego, God placed in him the call to joy. This
Tx:5.36 Delay is of the ego, because  time is its concept. Delay is obviously a time idea. Both time and

Tx:5.36  because time is its concept. Delay is obviously a time idea. Both  time and delay are meaningless in eternity. We have said before that

Tx:5.37  Eternity is an idea of God, so the Soul understands it perfectly.  Time is a belief of the ego, so the lower mind, which is the ego's
Tx:5.37  the ego's domain, accepts it without question. The only aspect of  time which is really eternal is now. That is what we really mean
Tx:5.37  now. That is what we really mean when we say that “now is the only  time.” The literal nature of this statement does not mean anything to
Tx:5.40  by welcoming peace. Peace and eternity are as closely related as are  time and war. Perception as well as knowledge derives meaning from
Tx:5.42  teaching device for bringing you home. The Holy Spirit must perceive  time and reinterpret it into the timeless. The mind must be led into
Tx:5.42  it into the timeless. The mind must be led into eternity through  time because, having made time, it is capable of perceiving its
Tx:5.42  mind must be led into eternity through time because, having made  time, it is capable of perceiving its opposite.

Tx:5.71  in eternity, but it is tragic in time. You have elected to be in  time rather than eternity and have therefore changed your belief in
Tx:5.71  Yet your election is both free and alterable. You do not belong in  time. Your place is only in eternity, where God Himself placed you
Tx:5.72 Guilt feelings are the preservers of  time. They induce fears of future retaliation or abandonment and thus
Tx:5.81  patience can produce immediate effects. This is the way in which  time is exchanged for eternity. Infinite patience calls upon infinite
Tx:5.81  calls upon infinite love, and by producing results now, it renders  time unnecessary.
Tx:5.82 To say that  time is temporary is merely redundant. We have repeatedly said that

Tx:9.17  the Last Judgment, but welcome it and do not wait, for the ego's  time is borrowed from your eternity. This is the Second Coming,

Tx:11.91 Yet consider this: You are not guiltless in  time, but in eternity. You have “sinned” in the past, but there
Tx:11.91  in the past, but there is no past. Always has no direction.  Time seems to go in one direction, but when you reach its end, it
Tx:11.92  knows it is not true. The Holy Spirit stands at the end of  time, where you must be because He is with you. He has always
Tx:11.93  in him, he has found it. When he finds it is only a matter of  time, and time is but an illusion. For the Son of God is guiltless
Tx:11.93  he has found it. When he finds it is only a matter of time, and  time is but an illusion. For the Son of God is guiltless now, and
Tx:11.95  with his Father for you. There is no road to travel on and no  time to travel through. For God waits not for His Son in time, being
Tx:11.95  on and no time to travel through. For God waits not for His Son in  time, being forever unwilling to be without him. And so it has always

Tx:12.29  without meaning. It is evident that the Holy Spirit's perception of  time is the exact opposite of the ego's. The reason is equally clear,
Tx:12.29  ego's. The reason is equally clear, for they perceive the goal of  time as diametrically opposed.
Tx:12.30  the need for it unnecessary. Thus does He regard the function of  time as temporary, serving only His teaching function, which is
Tx:12.30  by definition. His emphasis is therefore on the only aspect of  time which can extend to the infinite, for now is the closest
Tx:12.31 The ego, on the other hand, regards the function of  time as one of extending itself in place of eternity, for like the
Tx:12.31  eternity, for like the Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the goal of  time as its own. The continuity of past and future under its
Tx:12.31  under its direction is the only purpose the ego perceives in  time, and it closes over the present so that no gap in its own
Tx:12.31  continuity can occur. Its continuity, then, would keep you in  time, while the Holy Spirit would release you from it. It is His
Tx:12.32 You too will interpret the function of  time as you interpret yours. If you accept your function in the world
Tx:12.32  as you interpret yours. If you accept your function in the world of  time as healing, you will emphasize only the aspect of time in
Tx:12.32  world of time as healing, you will emphasize only the aspect of  time in which healing can occur. For healing cannot be accomplished
Tx:12.32  and hold on to the past to ensure a destructive future. And  time will be as you interpret it, for of itself it is nothing.
Tx:12.48  Time can release as well as imprison, depending on whose

Tx:12.61  and 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
Tx:12.66  true and wholly yours. For all else you have lent yourself in  time, and it will fade. But this one thing is always yours, being
Tx:12.67  welcome that you offer knowledge. Love waits on welcome, not on  time, and the real world is but your welcome of what always was.
Tx:12.70  do not block the way to light. And what else could you need? In  time He gives you all the things that you need have and will renew
Tx:12.70  to make certain that you will not use them on behalf of lingering in  time. He knows that you are not at home there, and He wills no delay
Tx:12.75  us and to yourself. This is the only real need to be fulfilled in  time. Salvation from the world lies only here. My peace I give
Tx:12.76  the Mind of God's most holy Son, where it cannot abide. Healing in  time is needed, for joy cannot establish its eternal reign where

Tx:15.108  to perceive we are deprived of nothing? Such is the message of the  time of Christ, which I give you that you may give it and return it
Tx:15.108  give it and return it to the Father, Who gave it to me. For in the  time of Christ, communication is restored, and He joins us in the
Tx:15.110 This is the weekend in which a new year will be born from the  time of Christ. I have perfect faith in you to do all that you would
Tx:16.19  tried to solve anything yourself and been successful. Is it not  time you brought these facts together and made sense of them?
Tx:16.42  What would interfere with God must interfere with you. Only in  time does interference in God's completion seem to be possible. The
Tx:16.42  possible. The bridge that He would carry you across lifts you from  time into eternity. Waken from time and answer fearlessly the call of
Tx:16.42  would carry you across lifts you from time into eternity. Waken from  time and answer fearlessly the call of Him Who gave eternity to you
Tx:16.58  possible, and they are totally unreal. This year is thus the  time to make the easiest decision that ever confronted you and also
Tx:16.63 Across the bridge, it is so different! For a  time the body is still seen but not exclusively, as it is seen here.
Tx:16.65 Fear not that you will be abruptly lifted up and hurled into reality.  Time is kind, and if you use it for reality, it will keep gentle
Tx:16.65  which precedes the actual transition is far shorter than the  time it took to fix your minds so firmly on illusions. Delay will
Tx:16.76 For a  time you may attempt to bring illusions into the holy instant to
Tx:16.76  your mind. Yet the holy instant is eternal, and your illusions of  time will not prevent the timeless from being what it is nor you from
Tx:17.8  step, so small it has escaped your notice, is a stride through  time into eternity and beyond all ugliness into beauty that will
Tx:17.10  of the real world will be so short that you will barely have  time to thank God for it. For God will take the last step swiftly
Tx:17.18  Time is indeed unkind to the unholy relationship. For time is cruel
Tx:17.18 Time is indeed unkind to the unholy relationship. For  time is cruel in the ego's hands, as it is kind when used for
Tx:17.37  of eternity. It is a picture of timelessness, set in a frame of  time. If you focus on the picture, you will realize that it was only
Tx:17.37  of Heaven lies in this instant, borrowed from eternity and set in  time for you.
Tx:17.40 The other picture is lightly framed, for  time cannot contain eternity. There is no distraction here. The
Tx:17.45  invitation is accepted immediately, and the Holy Spirit wastes no  time in introducing the practical results of asking Him to enter. At
Tx:17.47  more slowly, for the contrast would be obscured and the ego given  time to reinterpret each slow step according to its liking. Only a
Tx:17.48 This is the  time for faith. You let this goal be set for you. That was an act
Tx:17.48  Have faith in each other in what but seems to be a trying  time. The goal is set. And your relationship has sanity as its
Tx:17.54  however compelling it may be, is easily forgotten if you allow  time to close over it. It must be kept shining and gracious in your
Tx:17.54  over it. It must be kept shining and gracious in your awareness of  time but not concealed within it. The instant remains. But where are
Tx:17.54  you have denied yourself its benefit. You reinforce this every  time you attack each other, for the attack must blind you to
Tx:18.4  it was. That one error, which brought truth to illusion, infinity to  time, and life to death, was all you ever made. Your whole world
Tx:18.16  do you order. No limit on substitution is laid upon you. For a  time, it seems as if the world were given you, to make it what you
Tx:18.19  is but another form of this same world you see in dreams. All your  time is spent in dreaming. Your sleeping and your waking dreams have
Tx:18.30  brought it. We are made whole in our desire to make whole. Let not  time worry you, for all the fear that you experience is really past.
Tx:18.30  time worry you, for all the fear that you experience is really past.  Time has been readjusted to help us do together what your separate
Tx:18.47 Whichever is saner at the  time when the threat is perceived should remember how deep is his
Tx:18.60  in space, and of your differences in size and seeming quality.  Time is not relevant; it can occur with something past, present, or
Tx:18.61  of what happens in the holy instant; the lifting of the barriers of  time and space, the sudden experience of peace and joy, and, above
Tx:18.65  experienced just now. Only its past and future make it seem real.  Time controls it entirely, for sin is never present. In any single
Tx:18.66  This course does not attempt to teach more than they learned in  time, but it does aim at saving time. You are attempting to follow
Tx:18.66  to teach more than they learned in time, but it does aim at saving  time. You are attempting to follow a very long road to the goal you
Tx:18.66  succeed because of their purpose. Yet the means are tedious and very  time consuming, for all of them look to the future for release from
Tx:18.68  release which everyone will one day find in his own way, at his own  time. We do not need this time. Time has been saved for you because
Tx:18.68  one day find in his own way, at his own time. We do not need this  time. Time has been saved for you because you are together. This is
Tx:18.68  day find in his own way, at his own time. We do not need this time.  Time has been saved for you because you are together. This is the
Tx:18.68  together. This is the special means this course is using to save you  time. You are not making use of the course if you insist on using
Tx:18.68  have served others well, neglecting what was made for you. Save  time for me by only this one preparation and practice, doing
Tx:18.69  door through which you slip past centuries of effort and escape from  time. This is the way in which sin loses all attraction right now.
Tx:18.69  the way in which sin loses all attraction right now. For here is  time denied and past and future gone. Who need do nothing has no need
Tx:18.69  denied and past 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
Tx:18.96  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 Presence of
Tx:19.16  and learn how not to interfere with it and make it slave to  time. For what you think you do to the eternal you do to you. Whom
Tx:19.28  a call for help that you would keep unheard and thus unanswered? In  time the Holy Spirit clearly sees the Son of God can make mistakes.
Tx:19.28  Yet you do not share His recognition of the difference between  time and eternity. And when correction is completed, time is
Tx:19.28  between time and eternity. And when correction is completed,  time is eternity.
Tx:19.29  Time is like a downward spiral which seems to travel down from a
Tx:19.30  and forever changeless. This One can teach you how to look on  time differently and see beyond it, but not while you believe in
Tx:19.87  perform, held out to you. The miracle of life is ageless, born in  time but nourished in eternity. Behold this infant to whom you gave a
Tx:19.106  in him the gift of God you would receive. It is almost Easter, the  time of resurrection. Let us give redemption to each other and
Tx:20.4  ancient Friend, lie his release and your redemption with him. The  time of Easter is a time of joy and not of mourning. Look on your
Tx:20.4  his release and your redemption with him. The time of Easter is a  time of joy and not of mourning. Look on your risen Friend and
Tx:20.4  Friend and celebrate his holiness along with me. For Easter is the  time of your salvation, along with mine.
Tx:20.10 —a careless thought to play with or a toy you would pick up from  time to time and then put by. For if you do, so will it be to you.
Tx:20.10  thought to play with or a toy you would pick up from time to  time and then put by. For if you do, so will it be to you.
Tx:20.12 Your home has called to you since  time began, nor have you ever failed entirely to hear. You heard but
Tx:20.35 You may wonder how you can be at peace when, while you are in  time, there is so much that must be done before the way to peace is
Tx:20.37  to what was held outside them and finding what was lost. Only in  time can anything be lost, and never lost forever. So do the
Tx:20.37  never lost forever. So do the parts of God's Son gradually join in  time, and with each joining is the end of time brought nearer. Each
Tx:20.37  Son gradually join in time, and with each joining is the end of  time brought nearer. Each miracle of joining is a mighty herald of
Tx:20.38  herald of eternity sings of the end of sin and fear. Each speaks in  time of what is far beyond it. Two voices raised together call to the
Tx:20.41  There is but one. The little breath of eternity that runs through  time like golden light is all the same—nothing before it, nothing
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
Tx:20.52  your relationships were made meaningless. In that unholy instant,  time was born and bodies made to house the mad idea and give it the
Tx:20.52  so it seemed to have a home that held together for a little while in  time and vanished. For what could house this mad idea against reality
Tx:20.55  around the mind, keeping it prisoner in a tiny spot of space and  time, beholden unto death and given but an instant in which to sigh
Tx:20.56  and you have learned you really want but one. This is no  time for sadness. Perhaps confusion, but hardly discouragement.
Tx:20.62  make the unholy relationship seem real. The unholy instant is the  time of bodies. But the purpose here is sin. It cannot be attained
Tx:21.45 This part has seen your brother and recognized him perfectly since  time began. And it desired nothing but to join with him and to be
Tx:21.53  For God wills not apart from him, nor does the Will of God wait upon  time to be accomplished. Therefore, what joined the Will of God must
Tx:21.84 Elusive happiness, or happiness in changing form that shifts with  time and place, is an illusion which has no meaning. Happiness must

Tx:22.1  on sin together, for they could never see it in the same place and  time. Sin is a strictly individual perception, seen in the other yet
Tx:22.14  older than perception and yet reborn in just an instant. For what is  time to what was always so? Think what that instant brought—the
Tx:22.18  the eternal cannot change. But sorrow can be turned to joy, for  time gives way to the eternal. Only the timeless must remain
Tx:22.18  eternal. Only the timeless must remain unchanged, but everything in  time can change with time. Yet if the change be real and not
Tx:22.18  must remain unchanged, but everything in time can change with  time. Yet if the change be real and not imagined, illusions must give

Tx:22.23  you made, and time you can command. You are no more a slave to  time than to the world you made.
Tx:22.27  holy relationship, beloved of God Himself. How still it rests, in  time and yet beyond, immortal yet on earth. How great the power that
Tx:22.27  beyond, immortal yet on earth. How great the power that lies in it.  Time waits upon its will, and earth will be as it would have it be.
Tx:22.56  remembrance of everything that is eternal. No trace of anything in  time can long remain in minds that serve the timeless. And no
Tx:23.5  is beyond it, measureless and timeless as eternity. Do not let  time intrude upon your sight of him. Leave him not frightened and
Tx:24.52  of the Son as all you wish to be accomplished by the world, by  time, and all appearances, you will not know the Father nor yourself.
Tx:24.54  it is He they look for everywhere and find no sight nor place nor  time where He is not. Within your brother's holiness, the perfect
Tx:24.55  look upon. Yet will you choose in countless situations and through  time which seems to have no end until the truth be your decision. For
Tx:24.60  goal with far less vigilance—with little effort and with little  time and with the power of God maintaining it and promising success.
Tx:24.65  this: can you protect the mind? The body, yes, a little—not from  time, but temporarily. And much you think you save, you hurt. What
Tx:24.67  one with Him. This is the state of true creation, found not within  time, but in eternity. To no one here is this describable. Nor is
Tx:24.68  to add and nothing taken from—not born of size nor weight nor  time nor held to limits or uncertainties of any kind. Here do the
Tx:25.10 All this takes note of  time and place as if they were discrete, for while you think that
Tx:25.13  hope of satisfaction from the world you see? In no respect at any  time or place has anything but fear and guilt been your reward. How
Tx:25.27  within him ready to lead him out of darkness into light at any  time.
Tx:25.28 The  time he chooses can be any time, for help is there, awaiting but
Tx:25.28 The time he chooses can be any  time, for help is there, awaiting but his choice. And when he chooses
Tx:25.31  choice your future? For you make it now, the instant when all  time becomes a means to reach a goal. Make then your choice. But
Tx:25.36  before and nothing after it. No other place, no other state nor  time. Nothing beyond nor nearer. Nothing else. In any form. This can
Tx:25.38  as innocent and wish him dead? Christ stands before you both each  time you look on one another. He has not gone because your eyes are
Tx:25.47  they must be one. Forgiveness is the only function meaningful in  time. It is the means the Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness
Tx:25.47  complete and every function of this world completed with it. Then is  time no more.
Tx:25.48 Yet while in  time, there is still much to do. And each must do what is allotted
Tx:25.48  on his part does all the plan depend. He has a special part in  time, for so he chose, and choosing it, he made it for himself. His
Tx:25.49  understand that he is safe, as he has always been and will remain in  time and in eternity alike. This is the function given each of you
Tx:25.56  same. The form is suited to your special needs and to the special  time and place in which you think you find yourself and where you can
Tx:25.56  you think you find yourself and where you can be free of place and  time and all that you believe must limit you. The Son of God cannot
Tx:25.56  that you believe must limit you. The Son of God cannot be bound by  time nor place nor anything God did not will. Yet if His Will is seen
Tx:26.6  belief in sin. You sacrifice your innocence with his and die each  time you see in him a sin deserving death.
Tx:26.8  He is the same forever—born again each instant, untouched by  time, and far beyond the reach of any sacrifice of life or death. For
Tx:26.10  then recur again and yet again until it has been answered for all  time and will not rise again in any form. And only then are you
Tx:26.12  vanish one by one without regard to size, complexity, or place and  time, or any attribute which you perceive that makes each one seem
Tx:26.14  punish him because you will not look at what is there to see? Each  time you keep a problem for yourself to solve or judge that it is one
Tx:26.19  and Heaven. It is not a place, and when you reach it is apart from  time. Here is the meeting-place where thoughts are brought together—
Tx:26.20  the gate where Oneness is. Salvation is a borderland where place and  time and choice have meaning still, and yet it can be seen that they
Tx:26.30  teacher leads. There are but two directions you can take while  time remains and choice is meaningful. For never will another road be
Tx:26.31 Nothing is ever lost but  time, which in the end is [nothing. It] is but a little hindrance to
Tx:26.32  to conflict with it. And what He would replace has been replaced.  Time lasted but an instant in your mind, with no effect upon
Tx:26.32  an instant in your mind, with no effect upon eternity. And so is all  time passed and everything exactly as it was before the way to
Tx:26.32  as it was before the way to nothingness was made. The tiny tick of  time in which the first mistake was made, and all of them within that
Tx:26.32  and all of them that came within the first. And in that tiny instant  time was gone, for that was all it ever was. What God gave Answer to
Tx:26.33 To you who still believe you live in  time and know not it is gone, the Holy Spirit still guides you
Tx:26.33  the infinitely small and senseless maze you still perceive in  time, though it has long since gone. You think you live in what is
Tx:26.34  world appear to rise. So very long ago, for such a tiny interval of  time that not one note in Heaven's song was missed.
Tx:26.35  that one instant still called back, as if it could be made again in  time. You keep an ancient memory before your eyes. And he who lives
Tx:26.36 [Forgiveness is the great release from  time. It is the key to learning that the past is over. Madness speaks
Tx:26.36  a distant shore and dream himself across an ocean to a place and  time that have long since gone by? How real a hindrance can this
Tx:26.36  he has. Yet can he still imagine he is elsewhere and in another  time. In the extreme, he can delude himself that this is true and
Tx:26.37  to hear where he is now? And how much can his own delusions about  time and place affect a change in where he really is? The unforgiven
Tx:26.38 Forget the  time of terror that has been so long ago corrected and undone. Can
Tx:26.39  allow His Son to lose his way along a road long since a memory of  time gone by? [This course will teach you only what is now.] A
Tx:26.41 The shadow voices do not change the laws of  time or of eternity. They come from what is past and gone and hinder
Tx:26.41  here and now. The real world is the second part of the hallucination  time and death are real and have existence which can be perceived.
Tx:26.41  can be perceived. This terrible illusion was denied in but the  time it took for God to give His answer to illusion for all time and
Tx:26.41  but the time it took for God to give His answer to illusion for all  time and every circumstance. And then it was no more, to be
Tx:26.42  that each minute holds, you but relive the single instant when the  time of terror was replaced by love. And so you die each day to live
Tx:26.42  an instant gone by long ago, which cannot be relived. And all of  time is but the mad belief that what is over is still here and now.
Tx:26.49  to all its forms. God's answer is eternal, though it operates in  time where it is needed. Yet because it is of God, the laws of time
Tx:26.49  in time where it is needed. Yet because it is of God, the laws of  time do not affect its workings. It is in this world, but not a part
Tx:26.54  you impose between your brother and yourself. They limit you to  time and place and give a little space to you, another little space
Tx:26.68  problem that you have is that you see an interval between the  time when you forgive and will receive the benefits of trust. This
Tx:26.68  keep between yourselves that you might be a little separate. For  time and space are one illusion which takes different forms. If it
Tx:26.68  If it has been projected beyond your minds, you think of it as  time. The nearer it is brought to where it is, the more you think of
Tx:26.69  you would keep apart from one another, and this space you see as  time because you still believe you are external to each other. This
Tx:26.70  afraid of it, believing that the risk of loss is great between the  time its purpose is made yours and its effects will come to you. In
Tx:26.70  is here you fear the loss would lie. Do not project this fear to  time, for time is not the enemy that you perceive. Time is as neutral
Tx:26.70  you fear the loss would lie. Do not project this fear to time, for  time is not the enemy that you perceive. Time is as neutral as the
Tx:26.70  this fear to time, for time is not the enemy that you perceive.  Time is as neutral as the body is except in terms of what you see it
Tx:26.70  you would keep a little space between you still, you want a little  time in which forgiveness is withheld a little while. This makes the
Tx:26.70  is withheld a little while. This makes the interval between the  time in which forgiveness is withheld and given seem dangerous, with
Tx:26.71  between you is apparent now and cannot be perceived in future  time. No more can it be overlooked except within the present. Future
Tx:26.72  It stands already here in present grace, within the only interval of  time which sin and fear have overlooked but which is all there is
Tx:26.72  which sin and fear have overlooked but which is all there is to  time. The working out of all correction takes no time at all.
Tx:26.72  all there is to time. The working out of all correction takes no  time at all.
Tx:26.73  will see. They can be looked at now. Why wait till they unfold in  time and fear they may not come, although already there? You have
Tx:26.74  reason, for it is unjust and clearly hints at punishment until the  time of liberation is at hand. Given a change of purpose for the
Tx:26.75  and one form in which its outcome is perceived. This interval in  time, when retribution is perceived to be the form in which the
Tx:26.76  maintain effects of present cause must be delayed until a future  time is merely a denial of the fact that consequence and cause must
Tx:26.76  of the fact that consequence and cause must come as one. Look not to  time but to the little space between you still to be delivered from.
Tx:26.76  you still to be delivered from. And do not let it be disguised as  time and so preserved because its form is changed and what it is
Tx:27.31  then the empty space it occupies be recognized as vacant, and the  time devoted to its seeing be perceived as idly spent, a time
Tx:27.31  and the time devoted to its seeing be perceived as idly spent, a  time unoccupied.
Tx:27.32 An empty space which is not seen as filled, an unused interval of  time not seen as spent and fully occupied, becomes a silent
Tx:27.33  It lets the Holy Spirit make exchange of pictures possible until the  time when aids are meaningless and learning done. No learning aid has
Tx:27.37 Thus it must be that  time is not involved, and every problem can be answered now. Yet it
Tx:27.45  love without attack. An instant is sufficient. Miracles wait not on  time.
Tx:27.69  as thoughtless of his peace and happiness as is the weather or the  time of day. It loves him not but casts him as it will in any role
Tx:27.70  indeed it is, for thus are you the one decider of your destiny in  time. The choice is yours to make between a sleeping death and dreams
Tx:27.72  you do not even see, the birthplace of illusions and of fear, the  time of terror and of ancient hate, the instant of disaster, all are
Tx:27.77  united in the dust with other bodies dying like itself. In the brief  time allotted it to live, it seeks for other bodies as its friends
Tx:27.79 The body's serial adventures from the  time of birth to dying is the theme of every dream the world has ever
Tx:27.81  his attack upon himself. No one believes there really was a  time when he knew nothing of a body and could never have conceived
Tx:27.82  effects. Together, we can laugh them both away and understand that  time cannot intrude upon eternity. It is a joke to think that time
Tx:27.82  that time cannot intrude upon eternity. It is a joke to think that  time can come to circumvent eternity, which means there is no time.
Tx:27.82  that time can come to circumvent eternity, which means there is no  time.
Tx:27.83 A timelessness in which is  time made real; a part of God which can attack itself; a separate
Tx:28.4  your desire made the link, and only you have held it to a part of  time where guilt appears to linger still.
Tx:28.5 The Holy Spirit's use of memory is quite apart from  time. He does not seek to use it as a means to keep the past, but
Tx:28.5  and lived again. And thus do their effects appear to be increased by  time, which took away their cause.
Tx:28.6 Yet  time is but another phase of what does nothing. It works hand in hand
Tx:28.6  with which you seek to keep concealed the truth about yourself.  Time neither takes away nor can restore. And yet you make strange use
Tx:28.8  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:28.9  reminds you of a Cause forever present, perfectly untouched by  time and interference—never changed from what It is. And you
Tx:28.10  deny Him His effects, yet have they never been denied. There was no  time in which His Son could be condemned for what was causeless and
Tx:28.11  stops an instant and is still. It reaches gently from that quiet  time, and from the mind it healed in quiet then, to other minds to
Tx:28.11  all minds to be. Born out of sharing, there can be no pause in  time to cause the miracle delay in hastening to all unquiet minds and
Tx:28.12 He to Whom  time is given offers thanks for every quiet instant given Him. For in
Tx:28.36  falters and grows thin. Here can the lean years enter not, for  time waits not upon this feast, which has no end. For Love has set
Tx:28.52  and from illusions. Truth has left no room for them in any place or  time. For it fills every place and every time and makes them wholly
Tx:28.52  for them in any place or time. For it fills every place and every  time and makes them wholly indivisible.
Tx:28.59  though in that promise he was born. Yet God reminds him of it every  time he does not share a promise to be sick but lets his mind be
Tx:29.1 There is no  time, no place, no state where God is absent. There is nothing to be
Tx:29.4  Conditional upon the “right” to separate will you agree to meet from  time to time and keep apart in intervals of separation, which protect
Tx:29.4  upon the “right” to separate will you agree to meet from time to  time and keep apart in intervals of separation, which protect you
Tx:29.4  saves you, for it gets away from total sacrifice and gives you  time in which to build again your separate selves, which you believe
Tx:29.16  teacher who is teaching them. The body can appear to change with  time, with sickness or with health, and with events that seem to
Tx:29.31  of sin and of illusion lingers still. There is a place in you which  time has left, and echoes of eternity are heard. There is a resting
Tx:29.39  the seasons, and the lives of men; all things that change with  time and bloom and fade will not return. Where time has set an end is
Tx:29.39  that change with time and bloom and fade will not return. Where  time has set an end is not where the eternal is. God's Son can never
Tx:29.39  by what men made of him. He will be as he was and as he is, for  time appointed not his destiny nor set the hour of his birth and
Tx:29.39  hour of his birth and death. Forgiveness will not change him. Yet  time waits upon forgiveness that the things of time may disappear
Tx:29.39  not change him. Yet time waits upon forgiveness that the things of  time may disappear because they have no use.
Tx:29.41  your function has been fixed by God. All other goals are set in  time and change that time might be preserved, excepting one.
Tx:29.41  been fixed by God. All other goals are set in time and change that  time might be preserved, excepting one. Forgiveness does not aim at
Tx:29.41  be preserved, excepting one. Forgiveness does not aim at keeping  time but at its ending when it has no use. Its purpose ended; it is
Tx:29.41  restored the function God established for His Son in full awareness.  Time can set no end to its fulfillment nor its changelessness. There
Tx:29.42  a little while till timelessness comes quietly to take the place of  time.
Tx:29.43 Seek not outside yourself. For it will fail, and you will weep each  time an idol falls. Heaven cannot be found where it is not, and there

W1:75.2  There are no dark dreams now. The light has come. Today the  time of light begins for you and everyone. It is a new era in which a
W1:75.10  wait in certainty to look upon the world He promised you. From this  time forth you will see differently. Today the light has come. And

W1:95.5  purpose frequently, you tend to forget about it for long periods of  time. You often fail to remember the short applications of the idea

W1:96.2  of goals you cannot reach; a senseless series of expenditures of  time and effort, hopefulness and doubt, each one as futile as the one
W1:96.7 Waste no more  time on this. Who can resolve the senseless conflicts which a dream
W1:96.16  will save for you, and it will yet be yours in full awareness. Every  time you spend five minutes of the hour seeking Him Who joins your
W1:96.17 Each  time today you tell your frantic mind salvation comes from your One
W1:97.3 Today we try to bring reality still closer to your mind. Each  time you practice, awareness is brought a little nearer at least;
W1:97.3  you give are multiplied over and over, for the miracle makes use of  time but is not ruled by it. Salvation is a miracle, the first and

W1:97.4  the miracle in which a minute spent in using these ideas becomes a  time which has no length and which has no end. Give, then, these
W1:97.6  they will be welcome. And they will increase in healing power each  time someone accepts them as his thoughts and uses them to heal.
W1:97.11  and God, your brothers and your Self. Listen for His assurance every  time you speak the words He offers you today, and let Him tell your
W1:98.3  they know their function will be filled completely in the perfect  time and place. They took the stand which we will take today that we
W1:98.5 Is it not worth five minutes of your  time each hour to be able to accept the happiness that God has given
W1:98.6  joy the world does not contain. You can exchange a little of your  time for peace of mind and certainty of purpose with the promise of
W1:98.6  certainty of purpose with the promise of complete success. And since  time has no meaning, you are being asked for nothing in return for
W1:98.11  practice period you share with Him, exchanging every instant of the  time you offer Him for timelessness and peace.
W1:98.12 Throughout the hour, let your  time be spent in happy preparation for the next five minutes you will
W1:98.12  again with Him. Repeat today's idea while you wait for the glad  time to come to you again. Repeat it often, and do not forget each
W1:98.12  time to come to you again. Repeat it often, and do not forget each  time you do so, you have let your mind be readied for the happy time
W1:98.12  each time you do so, you have let your mind be readied for the happy  time to come.
W1:98.13 And when the hour is gone and He is there once more to spend a little  time with you, be thankful and lay down all earthly tasks, all little
W1:98.13  tasks, all little thoughts and limited ideas, and spend a happy  time again with Him. Tell Him once more that you accept the part
W1:99.5  of Him within the Mind of God and in your own. It is apart from  time in that its Source is timeless. Yet it operates in time because

W1:104.2  which we inherited before time was and which will still be ours when  time has passed into eternity.
W1:105.11 Spend your five minutes thus with Him each  time you can today, but do not think that less is worthless when you
W1:107.2  illusions is? How it would feel? Try to remember when there was a  time—perhaps a minute, maybe even less—when nothing came to
W1:107.2  what it would be like to have that moment be extended to the end of  time and to eternity.
W1:107.15 Do not forget your function for today. Each  time you tell yourself with confidence, “Truth will correct all
W1:108.13  you much. Effect and cause will be far better understood from this  time on, and we will make much faster progress now. Think of the
W1:108.13  advances in your learning, made still faster and more sure each  time you say:
W1:109.5  fear of future, and no past regrets. In timelessness you rest, while  time goes by without its touch upon you, for your rest can never

W1:109.11  is made complete, and what we give today we have received already.  Time is not the guardian of what we give today. We give to those
W1:109.11  and where they rest. And we remind them of their resting place each  time we tell ourselves,
W1:110.1 We will repeat today's idea from  time to time. For this one thought would be enough to save you and
W1:110.1 We will repeat today's idea from time to  time. For this one thought would be enough to save you and the world
W1:110.2  which will heal all the mistakes that any mind has made at any  time or place. It is enough to heal the past and make the future
W1:110.2  enough to let the present be accepted as it is. It is enough to let  time be the means for all the world to learn escape from time and
W1:110.2  to let time be the means for all the world to learn escape from  time and every change that time appears to bring in passing by.

W1:R3.2  you miss a practice period because it is impossible at the appointed  time. Nor is it necessary that you make excessive efforts to be sure
W1:R3.3  you skip a practice period because you are unwilling to devote the  time to it which you are asked to give. Do not deceive yourself in
W1:R3.11 Repeat it, and allow your mind to rest a little  time in silence and in peace. Then turn to other things, but try to

W1:125.4  to spread across the world the tidings of salvation and the holy  time of peace. We gather at the throne of God today, the quiet place
W1:127.6  means today, you have advanced in distance without measure and in  time beyond the count of years to your release.
W1:127.7 Let us together, then, be glad to give some  time to God today and understand there is no better use for time than
W1:127.7  some time to God today and understand there is no better use for  time than this. For 15 minutes twice today escape from every law in
W1:128.7  whole perspective on the world will shift by just a little every  time you let your mind escape its chains. The world is not where it
W1:129.2 It might be worth a little  time to think once more about the value of this world. Perhaps you
W1:129.2  No lasting love is found, for none is here. This is the world of  time, where all things end.
W1:129.3  no ending, and they will remain exactly as you want them throughout  time?
W1:131.7 Why wait for Heaven? It is here today.  Time is the great illusion; it is past or in the future. Yet this
W1:131.7  now, without a past and wholly futureless. It is as far removed from  time as is a tiny candle from a distant star, or what you chose from
W1:131.9  He wills to be, and what He wills is present now beyond the reach of  time.
W1:131.10  choose a paradox in place of truth. How could the Son of God make  time to take away the Will of God? He thus denies himself and
W1:131.17  his to Him. This is a day of gladness, for we come to the appointed  time and place where you will find the goal of all your searching
W1:131.18 Remember often that today should be a  time of special gladness, and refrain from dismal thoughts and
W1:131.18  refrain from dismal thoughts and meaningless laments. Salvation's  time has come. Today is set by Heaven Itself to be a time of grace
W1:131.18  Salvation's time has come. Today is set by Heaven Itself to be a  time of grace for you and for the world. If you forget this happy
W1:132.3  what you do not want to find. The present now remains the only  time. Here in the present is the world set free. For as you let the
W1:132.10  as God created you. There is no place where you can suffer and no  time that can bring change to your eternal state. How can a world of
W1:132.10  time that can bring change to your eternal state. How can a world of  time and place exist if you remain as God created you?
W1:133.5  thus delay your final choice until you had considered all of them in  time and not been brought so clearly to the place where there is but
W1:133.7  what you chose is valueless. A temporary value is without all value.  Time can never take away a value that is real. What fades and dies
W1:134.14 Today we practice true forgiveness that the  time of joining be no more delayed. For we would meet with our
W1:134.17  Briefly consider all the evil things you thought of him, and each  time ask yourself “Would I condemn myself for doing this?”
W1:134.18  weight across your chest, a deep and certain feeling of relief. The  time remaining should be given to experiencing the escape from all
W1:135.6  to make it safe, and you but say your home is open to the thief of  time, corruptible and crumbling, so unsafe it must be guarded with
W1:135.16  that it will be provided for unless it makes its own provisions.  Time becomes a future emphasis to be controlled by learning and
W1:135.20  constantly increases as this life becomes a holy instant, set in  time but heeding only immortality. Let no defenses but your present
W1:135.21  for your happiness according to the ancient plan begun when  time was born. Your followers will join their light with yours, and
W1:135.22 We will anticipate that  time today with present confidence, for this is part of what was
W1:136.14 It is this fact which demonstrates that  time is an illusion. For it lets you think what God has given you is
W1:136.14  right now, as it must be. The thoughts of God are quite apart from  time. For time is but another meaningless defense you made against
W1:136.14  as it must be. The thoughts of God are quite apart from time. For  time is but another meaningless defense you made against the truth.
W1:136.15  lay down its arms and cease to play with folly. It is found at any  time—today, if you will choose to practice giving welcome to the
W1:136.20  The body's health is fully guaranteed because it is not limited by  time, by weather or fatigue, by food and drink, or any laws you made
W1:137.11 Those who are healed become the instruments of healing. Nor does  time elapse between the instant they are healed and all the grace of
W1:137.13  hour worth the giving to receive a gift like this? Is not a little  time a small expense to offer for the gift of everything?
W1:138.3  one of conflicting goals become the aim of effort and expenditure of  time. Without decision, time is but a waste and effort dissipated. It
W1:138.3  become the aim of effort and expenditure of time. Without decision,  time is but a waste and effort dissipated. It is spent for nothing in
W1:138.3  waste and effort dissipated. It is spent for nothing in return. And  time goes by without results. There is no sense of gain, for nothing
W1:138.7 So we begin today considering the choice that  time was made to help us make. Such is its holy purpose, now
W1:138.9  in shadows must be raised to understanding to be judged again, this  time with Heaven's help, and all mistakes in judgment which the mind
W1:138.12  hour passed, we have declared our choice again in a brief quiet  time devoted to maintaining sanity. And finally we close the day with
W1:139.7 And they will come again until the  time Atonement is accepted, and they learn it is impossible to doubt
W1:140.11  the same. We have no need to make them different and thus delay the  time when we can hear our Father speak to us. We hear Him now. We
W1:R4.1 Now we review again, this  time aware we are preparing for the second part of learning how the

W1:R4.11  Then repeat the two ideas you practice for the day unhurriedly, with  time enough to see the gifts which they contain for you, and let them
W1:R4.12  as we began, repeating first the thought that made the day a special  time of blessing and of happiness for us and through our faithfulness
W1:151.13 We practice wordlessly today, except at the beginning of the  time you spend with God. We introduce these times with but a single,
W1:153.13  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 lock our
W1:153.15  us from our purpose, we will find that half an hour is too short a  time to spend with God. Nor will we willingly give less at night in
W1:153.18 In  time, with practice, you will never cease to think of Him and hear
W1:153.18  would you keep your mind away from Him a moment, even though your  time is spent in offering salvation to the world. Think you He will
W1:153.20 We call upon His strength each  time we feel the threat of our defenses undermine our certainty of
W1:155.11 When dreams are over,  time has closed the door on all the things that pass, and miracles
W1:157.1 This is a day of silence and of trust. It is a special  time of promise in your calendar of days. It is a time Heaven has set
W1:157.1  It is a special time of promise in your calendar of days. It is a  time Heaven has set apart to shine upon and cast a timeless light
W1:157.3  of learning. Yet you have come far enough along the way to alter  time sufficiently to rise above its laws and walk into eternity a
W1:157.7  world to which you will return becomes a little closer to the end of  time, a little more like Heaven in its ways, a little nearer its
W1:157.8 The  time will come when you will not return in the same form in which you
W1:158.2  can. The revelation that the Father and the Son are one will come in  time to every mind. Yet is that time determined by the mind itself,
W1:158.2  and the Son are one will come in time to every mind. Yet is that  time determined by the mind itself, not taught.
W1:158.3 The  time is set already. It appears to be quite arbitrary. Yet there is
W1:158.3  been taken by him, although he has not yet embarked on it. For  time but seems to go in one direction. We but undertake a journey
W1:158.4  Time is a trick—a sleight of hand, a vast illusion in which figures
W1:158.5  he did not learn it. It revealed itself to him at its appointed  time. But vision is his gift. This he can give directly, for Christ's

W1:162.1  thought, held firmly in the mind, would save the world. From time to  time we will repeat it, as we reach another stage in learning. It
W1:162.3  will save the world because he gives the world what he receives each  time he practices the words of truth.
W1:163.3  is counted on. For it will come with certain footsteps when the  time has come for its arrival. It will never fail to take all life as
W1:164.1 What  time but now can truth be recognized? The present is the only time
W1:164.1 What time but now can truth be recognized? The present is the only  time there is. And so today, this instant, now, we come to look upon
W1:164.1  there—not in our sight, but in the eyes of Christ. He looks past  time and sees eternity as represented there. He hears the sounds the
W1:164.3  for you and answers in your name the call He hears. How quiet is the  time you give to spend with Him beyond the world. How easily are all
W1:166.11  reply: “It is not so.” He points to all the gifts you have each  time the thought of poverty oppresses you and speaks of His

W1:167.9  its Source, it merely seems to go to sleep a while. It dreams of  time—an interval in which what seems to happen never has occurred,
W1:169.4  already set. But we have also said the mind determines when that  time will be and has determined it. And yet we urge you to bear
W1:169.6  cannot be conceived. It lies beyond salvation—past all thought of  time, forgiveness, and the holy face of Christ. The Son of God has
W1:169.7  learned, brings with it the experiences which bear witness that the  time the mind itself determined to abandon all but this is now at
W1:169.7  in His Mind, accomplished and complete. He recognized all that  time holds and gave it to all minds that each one might determine
W1:169.7  it to all minds that each one might determine from a point where  time has ended when it is released to revelation and eternity.
W1:169.8  but make a journey that is done. For oneness must be here. Whatever  time the mind has set for revelation is entirely irrelevant to what
W1:169.9  be known and fully understood. Now we have work to do, for those in  time can speak of things beyond and listen to words which explain
W1:169.11  salvation can bestow. Experience that grace provides will end in  time, for grace foreshadows Heaven yet does not replace the thought
W1:169.11  for grace foreshadows Heaven yet does not replace the thought of  time but for a little while. The interval suffices. It is here that
W1:170.9 This moment can be terrible. But it can also be the  time of your release from abject slavery. You make a choice, standing
W1:170.12 The choice you make today is certain. For you look for the last  time upon this bit of carven stone you made and call it god no
W1:170.12  still another form, and so the fear of God returned with you. This  time you leave it here. And you return to a new world unburdened by
W1:R5.1 We now review again. This  time we are ready to give more effort and more time to what we
W1:R5.1  review again. This time we are ready to give more effort and more  time to what we undertake. We recognize we are preparing for another
W1:R5.7  step we take brings us a little nearer. This review will shorten  time immeasurably if we keep in mind that This remains our goal, and
W1:R5.9 My resurrection comes again each  time I lead a brother safely to the place at which the journey ends
W1:R5.9  the place at which the journey ends and is forgot. I am renewed each  time a brother learns there is a way from misery and pain. I am

W1:R5.10  unchanged by time, immaculate and safe, as it will be at last, when  time is done.
W1:R5.12 Let this review become a  time in which we share a new experience for you, yet one as old as
W1:R5.12  a time in which we share a new experience for you, yet one as old as  time, and older still. Hallowed your name. Your glory undefiled
W1:R5.12  And we remind the world that it is free of all illusions every  time we say,
W1:R5.14  of our review. With this we start and end each period of practice  time. And with this thought we sleep, to waken once again with these
W1:I2.1  into one intent. You are not asked for total dedication all the  time, as yet. But you are asked to practice now in order to attain
W1:181.3  an instant previous has no concern for us within this interval of  time wherein we practice changing our intent. We seek for innocence
W1:181.5  what we will believe will not intrude upon us now. We enter in the  time of practicing with one intent—to look upon the sinlessness
W1:182.2  try to put by their suffering in games they play to occupy their  time and keep their sadness from them. Others will deny that they are
W1:182.5  You are His home as well. He will return. But give Him just a little  time to be Himself within the peace that is His home, resting in
W1:182.10 Christ is reborn as but a little Child each  time a wanderer would leave his home. For he must learn that what he

W1:182.10  Who is protected by defenselessness. Go home with Him from time to  time today. You are as much an alien here as He.

W1:190.4 Peace to such foolishness! The  time has come to laugh at such insane ideas. There is no need to
W1:190.8  the Son He loves. In pain does fear appear to triumph over love and  time replace eternity and Heaven. And the world becomes a cruel and a

W1:192.8  He must be sure that he does not escape, and so he spends his  time in keeping watch on him. The bars which limit him become the
W1:192.9  of bind, for thus are you made free. The way is simple. Every  time you feel a stab of anger, realize you hold a sword above your

W1:193.14  devote what time you can to serve its proper aim, and do not let the  time be less than meets your deepest need.
W1:193.16 Each hour spend a little  time today, and in the days to come, in practicing the lesson in

W1:193.17  it. Thus will you remain unbound, in peace eternal in the world of  time. This is the lesson God would have you learn: there is a way to
W1:194.3  given unto God in passing, with the next one given Him already, is a  time of your release from sadness, pain and even death itself.
W1:194.4  you are not asked to understand the lack of sequence really found in  time. You are but asked to let the future go and place it in God's
W1:194.5  of grief and misery, of pain and loss, becomes the instant in which  time escapes the bondage of illusions where it runs its pitiless,
W1:194.5  inevitable course. Then is each instant, which was slave to  time, transformed into a holy instant when the light that was kept
W1:195.10 Our gratitude will pave the way to Him and shorten our learning  time by more than you could ever dream of. Gratitude goes hand in
W1:196.4  sequence as the mind relinquishes its burdens one by one. It is not  time we need for this. It is but willingness. And what would seem to
W1:196.11  for your death, intent on plotting punishment for you until the  time when it can kill at last. Yet in this instant is the time as
W1:196.11  until the time when it can kill at last. Yet in this instant is the  time as well in which salvation comes. For fear of God has
W1:198.15  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 come today.

W1:199.2  Holy Spirit is unlimited forever, in all ways, beyond the laws of  time and space, unbound by any preconceptions, and with strength and
W1:199.8  even to it. And God Himself extends His Love and happiness each  time you say:
W1:200.9  Only if we attempt to wander can there be delay and needless wasted  time on thorny byways. God alone is sure, and He will guide our

W1:R6.5 The day begins and ends with this. And we repeat it every  time the hour strikes or we remember in between we have a function

W1:R6.11  time you turn to Him. He will not fail to be available to you each  time you call to Him to help you. Let us offer Him the whole review
W1:204.1  inheritance. God's Name reminds me that I am His Son, not slave to  time, unbound by laws which rule the world of sick illusions, free in
W2:I.2  along the road, and now we wait for Him. We will continue spending  time with Him each morning and at night, as long as makes us happy.
W2:I.2  and at night, as long as makes us happy. We will not consider  time a matter of duration now. We use as much as we will need for the

W2:WS.1  time will have an end, and all the thoughts that have been born in  time will end as well. God's Word is given every mind which thinks
W2:WS.5  is the call to all the world that freedom is returned, that  time is almost over, and God's Son has but an instant more to wait
W2:232.1  wake and shine on me throughout the day today. Let every minute be a  time in which I dwell with You. And let me not forget my hourly
W2:233.1  will instead of seeking goals which cannot be obtained and wasting  time in vain imaginings. Today I come to You. I will step back and
W2:234.1 Today we will anticipate the  time when dreams of sin and guilt are gone and we have reached again
W2:241.1 What joy there is today! It is a  time of special celebration. For today holds out the instant to the
W2:241.1  glory of salvation dawns today upon a world set free. This is the  time of hope for countless millions. They will be united now as you

W2:286.1  things fall in place! This is the day that has been chosen as the  time in which I come to understand the lesson that there is no need

W2:308.1  past and 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.
W2:308.2  this instant, Father. It is now I am redeemed. This instant is the  time You have appointed for Your Son's release and for salvation of
W2:310.1  chosen all my days should be. And what I will experience is not of  time at all. The joy that comes to me is not of days nor hours, for

W2:WICR.1  no time when all that It created was not there. Nor will there be a  time when anything that It created suffers any change. Forever and

W2:346.1  And so begins the day I share with You as I will share eternity, for  time has stepped aside today. I do not seek the things of time, and
W2:346.1  for time has stepped aside today. I do not seek the things of  time, and so I will not look upon them. What I seek today transcends
W2:346.1  I will not look upon them. What I seek today transcends all laws of  time and things perceived in time. I would forget all things except
W2:346.1  I seek today transcends all laws of time and things perceived in  time. I would forget all things except Your Love. I would abide in
W2:354.1  with the Christ establishes me as Your Son, beyond the reach of  time and wholly free of every law but Yours. I have no self except
W2:FL.2  because it is this ending God Himself appointed. In the dream of  time, it seems to be far off. And yet in truth, it is already here,
W2:FL.6  Words is all there is and all that there will be throughout all  time and in eternity.
W2:E.5  we say “Amen.” We will be told exactly what God wills for us each  time there is a choice to make. And He will speak for God and for
W2:E.5  Heaven nearer to your reach. And so we walk with Him from this  time on and turn to Him for guidance and for peace and right

M:2.2  completed simultaneously, for the Will of God is entirely apart from  time. So is all reality, being of Him. The instant the idea of
M:2.2  Mind of God's Son, in that same instant was God's Answer given. In  time this happened very long ago. In reality it never happened at all.
M:2.3 The world of  time is the world of illusion. What happened long ago seems to be
M:2.3  your will is free, you can accept what has already happened at any  time you choose, and only then will you realize that it was always
M:2.4  Time really, then, goes backward to an instant so ancient that it is

M:2.4  out of an ancient past. God's Will in everything but seems to take  time in the working-out. What could delay the Power of eternity?
M:3.3  the universal course is a concept as meaningless in reality as is  time. The illusion of one permits the illusion of the other. In time,
M:3.3  is time. The illusion of one permits the illusion of the other. In  time, the teacher of God seems to begin to change his mind about the

M:4.2 All differences among the Sons of God are temporary. Nevertheless, in  time it can be said that the advanced teachers of God have the

M:4.9  he must attain a state that may remain impossible for a long, long  time. He must learn to lay all judgment aside and ask only what he
M:4.20  natural to the teacher of God. All he sees is certain outcome, at a  time perhaps unknown as yet, but not in doubt. The time will be as
M:4.20  outcome, at a time perhaps unknown as yet, but not in doubt. The  time will be as right as is the answer. And this is true for
M:4.20  to whom it seemed to happen. Perhaps it was not understood at the  time. Even so, the teacher of God is willing to reconsider all his

M:10.6  is its result. All of the loneliness and sense of loss, of passing  time and growing hopelessness; of sickening despair and fear of death
M:11.2 Again we come to the question of judgment. This  time, ask yourself whether your judgment or the Word of God is more

M:13.5  and in a thousand places, each time believing it is there and each  time disappointed in the end. “Seek but do not find,” remains this
M:14.3  thought of sin remains” appears to be a long-range goal indeed. But  time stands still and waits on the goals of God's teachers. Not one
M:15.1  free. This is the judgment in which all things are freed with him.  Time pauses as eternity comes near, and silence lies across the world
M:15.3  this, and you will go beyond belief to certainty. One instant out of  time can bring time's end. Judge not, for you but judge yourself and
M:16.2  with error, yet there are obvious advantages in terms of saving  time if the need for this can be avoided.
M:16.3 At the beginning, it is wise to think in terms of  time. This is by no means the ultimate criterion, but at the outset,
M:16.3  at the outset, it is probably the simplest to observe. The saving of  time is an essential early emphasis which, although it remains
M:16.3  less and less emphasized. At the outset, we can safely say that  time devoted to starting the day right does indeed save time. How
M:16.3  say that time devoted to starting the day right does indeed save  time. How much time should be so spent? This must depend on the
M:16.3  devoted to starting the day right does indeed save time. How much  time should be so spent? This must depend on the teacher of God
M:16.4  awakes. If this is so, let him but remember that he chooses to spend  time with God as soon as possible, and let him do so. Duration is not
M:16.4  be made is this—as soon as possible after waking, take your quiet  time, continuing a minute or two after you begin to find it
M:16.4  that the difficulty will diminish and drop away. If not, that is the  time to stop.
M:16.5 The same procedures should be followed at night. Perhaps your quiet  time should be fairly early in the evening if it is not feasible for
M:16.5  If possible, however, just before going to sleep is a desirable  time to devote to God. It sets your mind into a pattern of rest and
M:16.5  and orients you away from fear. If it is expedient to spend this  time earlier, at least be sure that you do not forget a brief period

M:16.8  He must be sure success is not of him but will be given him at any  time, in any place and circumstance he calls for it. There are times
M:19.2  short indeed of all that awaits one when the pathway ceases and  time ends with it. But somewhere one must start. Justice is the
M:22.2  on whether he recognizes the Atonement's inclusiveness or for a  time excludes some problem areas from it. In some cases, there is a

C:31.10  to you, and is the reason for man's quest for God throughout all  time. Man may think he looks to God for answers, for release from
C:31.33  truth. Giving and receiving are both taking place, both at the same  time, as are seeking and finding, once you are aware of what it is

T1:9.13  learned this Course? Has it not seemed to lie dormant for periods of  time and then to suddenly be called back to life through some event
T2:1.4  may find in this a somewhat peaceful resting place to dwell in for a  time. You may find that despite having learned much about the need to

T2:4.12  to do. This is not about the past and all those things that at one  time or another you thought would bring you fulfillment. This is
T2:4.18  your calling even though some of you may feel as if you are in a  time of waiting for you hear no such call. The call is to be who you

T2:4.18  of the “time” it takes for learning to occur. As this notion of  time dissolves, the state of miracle-readiness becomes your natural
T2:5.3  ambiguity. The certainty of an announcement can alert you that it is  time to act. This might be considered the highest form of call, the
T2:6.1  It is what alerts you to the treasures that lie within. There is no  time in the place we are calling within and your heart knows not of
T2:6.1  time in the place we are calling within and your heart knows not of  time even while it adheres to the rules of time you would place upon

T2:6.1  time you would place upon yourself. Cease adhering to the rules of  time and see how much more the language of your heart becomes known
T2:6.2 I speak here not of the rules of  time that govern your days and years but the rules of time that you

T2:6.2  days and years and that you thus allow to govern your thinking. If  time is but a measure of learning, and if your learning is now at the
T2:6.2  stage at which it occurs in unison with unlearning, then the end of  time as you know it is close at hand. If you can begin now to think
T2:6.2  close at hand. If you can begin now to think without the barriers of  time you but place upon your thinking, you will advance this process
T2:6.2  bring about the end of the pattern of learning that you refer to as  time. The end of the pattern of learning that you refer to as time is

T2:6.2  of learning that you refer to as time is the beginning of the  time of unity.
T2:6.3  Let us review these beliefs and how they relate to your concept of  time.
T2:6.5 What does this mean in regards to  time? You might think of being accomplished as all of your work being
T2:6.5  is no work to be done, nothing for you to do, for what do you need  time? Have you ever conceived of accomplishing anything without
T2:6.5  conceived of accomplishing anything without taking into account the  time that it will take? Relate this question to our discussion of
T2:6.5  that your treasures only become accomplished abilities within  time. You believe that your treasures only become part of your
T2:6.5  only become part of your identity when you have passed beyond the  time it takes for those treasures to become abilities. Thus all that
T2:6.5  might wish to accomplish stands separate from you and beyond you in  time. That your mind projects what you desire to accomplish onto an
T2:6.5  mind projects what you desire to accomplish onto an unknown future  time is what would seem to keep you from accomplishment. I say that
T2:6.5  has worked, you act as if you are being kept from accomplishment by  time, and this “seems” quite real to you. This “seems” quite real to
T2:6.9  is a recognition that you exist in unity outside of the pattern of  time. Miracles create an out-of-pattern time interval. Thus living in
T2:6.9  outside of the pattern of time. Miracles create an out-of-pattern  time interval. Thus living in a state of miracle-readiness is the
T2:6.9  is the creation of a new reality outside of the pattern of ordinary  time. Although this state exists as the already accomplished, it is
T2:7.7  belief of all to integrate into the living of your life. Each  time another thwarts you, you will be tempted to believe that giving
T2:7.15  needs to be met. It is trusting that if you have a need for money or  time or honesty or love, it will be provided.
T2:7.17  and feelings? For some of you this answer has changed greatly over  time. But for many of you, you have become less, rather than more
T2:7.20  that giving and receiving are one in truth changes the function of  time as you know it. There is not a period of waiting or a period of
T2:7.20  time as you know it. There is not a period of waiting or a period of  time between giving and receiving. There is not a time-lapse between
T2:7.20  and receiving occur in unison, thus further collapsing the need for  time.
T2:7.21  of receiving and of needs being met may seem to still take  time, this belief builds on the belief of the already accomplished
T2:8.4  are calls to truth and but take the form of honesty for a brief  time as the truth of who you are is revealed to you and through your
T2:8.7 How much  time will be saved by an end to empty seeking? You have already
T2:8.7  by an end to empty seeking? You have already arrived and need no  time to journey any longer. How much time will be saved by an end to
T2:8.7  already arrived and need no time to journey any longer. How much  time will be saved by an end to the maintenance required by special
T2:9.1 I ask you now to remember a  time when you felt from another the desire to help or to meet your
T2:9.17  and exhaling, the give and take of breathing that you live. Each  time you are tempted to think that your needs can only be met in
T2:10.3 I ask you to think for a moment of a  time when you attempted to recall a specific memory. This may have
T2:10.3  it from you? You might feel frustrated with your memory at such a  time and even say something such as “my brain just isn't working
T2:11.7 This is why we spent a fair amount of  time addressing needs in a way we had not previously addressed them.
T2:11.15  it still, will be demonstrated before you just as it has been from  time immemorial. Is this what you would have continue? Does this not
T2:11.16  not know who you are. You may think you know, and you may waste much  time in perceived battles, valiantly fighting for good to win out
T2:13.2  to return you to your Self. Now that you have been made ready, it is  time for us to have a personal relationship. We have, within these
T2:13.4  with our Father. As you move into the world with the end of the  time of separation and the beginning of the time of unity taking
T2:13.4  with the end of the time of separation and the beginning of the  time of unity taking place around you, practice the beliefs that have
T2:13.4  beliefs that have been put forth in this Treatise. Know that, in the  time of unity, the truth will be shared by all.
T2:13.5  state of grace in which you exist here and remain forever beyond all  time and the passing of all form. It is an attitude of praise and
T2:13.6  as I guide you to your purpose here and linger with you in this  time to end all time. We are here, together, in love, to share love.
T2:13.6  you to your purpose here and linger with you in this time to end all  time. We are here, together, in love, to share love. This is not such
T3:1.11  once presented to others as “who you were” was a self who existed in  time, a self who believed that the past made up the self of the
T3:1.12  I can do this because I accomplished this, both in life and in all  time and time beyond time, making you, along with me, the
T3:1.12  this because I accomplished this, both in life and in all time and  time beyond time, making you, along with me, the accomplished. As has
T3:1.12  I accomplished this, both in life and in all time and time beyond  time, making you, along with me, the accomplished. As has already
T3:2.4 While much  time was spent within this Course, discussing the choice you but
T3:4.1  not a self-help course but just the opposite. This Course has stated  time and time again that you cannot learn on your own and that
T3:4.1  course but just the opposite. This Course has stated time and  time again that you cannot learn on your own and that resigning as
T3:4.7  to save the first. The ego has also been dismantled and rebuilt over  time and been seen as the rise and fall of civilizations. But as we
T3:5.2  not all emptiness has come to you at the hands of suffering. Each  time you have “fallen” in love you have emptied a space for love to
T3:5.2  “fallen” in love you have emptied a space for love to fill. Each  time you have felt true devotion you have emptied a space for love to
T3:5.4  foundation, attempting to make do with what you have. All your  time was spent in making repairs and this time spent kept you too
T3:5.4  what you have. All your time was spent in making repairs and this  time spent kept you too busy to see the light that was always visible
T3:5.6 The story that I lived was appropriate for the  time in which I lived it, and has an appropriateness that continues
T3:5.6  the earth in order to reveal a God of love. The question of the  time, a question still much in evidence, was how mighty could God's
T3:5.8 This story has been repeated endlessly in  time, in time extending both forward and back. Each father's son will
T3:5.8 This story has been repeated endlessly in time, in  time extending both forward and back. Each father's son will die.
T3:6.4  everything, including your very existence. This blame is as old as  time itself and the cause of bitterness being able to exist, even
T3:6.6  none can cleanse bitterness from the heart without your choice. The  time of tenderness began your release of bitterness and made you
T3:8.4  that you are attached to, I want you to think of attachments for a  time and see how bitterness does indeed fit into this category.
T3:8.4  or the identity of many past lives, the identity you hold in this  time and this place still believes in its own history and that of
T3:9.2  did. Yet, as these ideas are not learned ideas, they will not take  time, as did the ego's ideas, to spread through learning.
T3:9.5  no more. This was the work of many who came before you but the  time of such work, for you, is past. Many remain to shake the walls
T3:9.7 This is the pilgrimage I set you upon, as real as those who in the  time of Moses journeyed through the desert to the Promised Land. That
T3:10.4  again and I choose to do so no longer.” You need not spend any more  time with blame than this and I offer you no word or sentiment to
T3:10.7  of earlier will be able to be realized. You have passed through your  time of unlearning what the past but seemed to teach you. Now, while
T3:10.8  of its messages remain within your thoughts, like echoes of a former  time. These thoughts are remembered messages and so must, like all
T3:10.11  like remedial lessons, they are not. You are no longer called to a  time of uncertainty to learn through contrast the lessons of
T3:10.11  Thus when uncertainty arises, you need but remind yourself that the  time for uncertainty is past. Uncertainty will not now come to teach
T3:10.14  Yet the ease with which you communicate with them will diminish over  time. You will find yourself continuously teaching the language, if
T3:11.6 During the  time I spent on earth I did not dwell in the house of illusion but in
T3:11.15  they exist in the House of Truth. You will, in truth, for quite some  time, be striving to remain aware even that you have changed dwelling
T3:11.15  that you have changed dwelling places. There is a reason for this  time of varying degrees of awareness. As the old continues to help
T3:12.2 You exist within the  time of consciousness of the personal self. Thus we begin our work
T3:12.2  steps that came before that of the personal self did not come within  time. The creation of time was simultaneous with the creation of the
T3:12.2  that of the personal self did not come within time. The creation of  time was simultaneous with the creation of the personal self. Because
T3:12.2  the steps that came before that of the personal self did not come in  time, they are eternal, eternal levels of consciousness that still
T3:12.3 Temptations of the human experience exist only in  time. What we are about to do is move the human experience out of the
T3:12.3  we are about to do is move the human experience out of the realm of  time. For this to happen, we must remove the time-bound temptations
T3:12.4 Matter or form is bound by  time. Spirit is not. The House of Truth cannot be bound by time and
T3:12.4  bound by time. Spirit is not. The House of Truth cannot be bound by  time and be a House of Truth. How then can the personal self begin to
T3:12.4  the personal self begin to realize the human experience outside of  time? The answer is thus: by changing the consciousness of the
T3:14.1  the truth. The thought system of the ego was based on fear. In this  time of translation from one thought system to the other, the most
T3:14.10  this point, still hold to yourself and call unforgivable, now is the  time to let them go. If you have read the paragraph above and feel it
T3:14.11  whether you want suffering to continue or want to abolish it for all  time. If you are holding onto regrets you are holding on to blame. If
T3:14.12  the future can be built upon it. This is why we have spent so much  time unlearning and why we continue with lessons of forgetting.
T3:16.6 What is, is, despite the lag in  time that would seem to make all that we speak of here a blueprint
T3:16.6  a blueprint for some future reality. All that would keep this lag in  time a constant, and make it seem as if what is now is still awaiting
T3:17.3 As soon as spirit took on form, man began to exist in  time because there became a need for a beginning and an ending to the
T3:17.3  ending to the chosen experience. Thus each self of form is born into  time and each self of form dies out of time. Both birth and death
T3:17.3  self of form is born into time and each self of form dies out of  time. Both birth and death have always existed as choices, as
T3:17.3  as choices, as beginnings and endings to the finite experience of  time. It is the nature of what is finite to begin and end. Birth and
T3:17.4 As has been said before,  time is a measurement of the “time” it takes for learning to occur. A
T3:17.5  that has led, through the learning of untruth in the mechanism of  time, to the world in which you now exist. It may seem ridiculous to
T3:17.5  can be learned, but this is exactly what has been learned during the  time of your experience in physical form. Since your true Self could
T3:17.7 You were told in “A Treatise on the Art of Thought” that the  time of the Holy Spirit has ended and the time of the second coming
T3:17.7  Art of Thought” that the time of the Holy Spirit has ended and the  time of the second coming of Christ is here. The name of Christ was
T3:17.7  followed their teachings and example. This has occurred within the  time of the Holy Spirit.
T3:17.8  to you. The “time” of the Holy Spirit has now ended because the  time of illusion is now called to an end. What is finite has an end
T3:17.8  What is finite has an end point and this is that end point for the  time of illusion. The return of Christ, or your ability and
T3:17.8  of Truth rather than the house of illusion, is what will end the  time of illusion. Just as the truth is the truth and illusion is
T3:17.8  we speak of here is the same as the end we speak of here. The  time of the Holy Spirit, or the time in which communication was
T3:17.8  as the end we speak of here. The time of the Holy Spirit, or the  time in which communication was needed between the illusion and the
T3:19.9 There is no longer any  time to waste on such illusions. The thought system of the truth sees
T3:19.14  anything at all about the nature of who you are. This is why no more  time can be wasted and why so many are being called in the strongest
T3:19.15  and bid them join you in the reality of the truth. But in this  time of Christ, a new time, a time without parallel or comparison,
T3:19.15  you in the reality of the truth. But in this time of Christ, a new  time, a time without parallel or comparison, this will not be
T3:19.15  the reality of the truth. But in this time of Christ, a new time, a  time without parallel or comparison, this will not be possible. It
T3:20.1 By saying that there is no longer any  time to be wasted on illusion we are saying that you will no longer
T3:20.1  to be wasted on illusion we are saying that you will no longer serve  time but that time will serve you. Time was wasted on illusion and so
T3:20.1  illusion we are saying that you will no longer serve time but that  time will serve you. Time was wasted on illusion and so but seemed to
T3:20.1  that you will no longer serve time but that time will serve you.  Time was wasted on illusion and so but seemed to become a master that
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
T3:20.2  in regards to the learning of the truth. As this is all that  time is for, and all that time is but a measurement of, it rightly
T3:20.2  learning of the truth. As this is all that time is for, and all that  time is but a measurement of, it rightly follows that learning can
T3:20.2  degrees of remembering and since this is what we work to have occur,  time can become our ally by using it for effectiveness.
T3:21.6  because it is attached to a person. A person is a being born into  time, a being whose existence began in time and will end in time.
T3:21.6  A person is a being born into time, a being whose existence began in  time and will end in time.
T3:21.6  into time, a being whose existence began in time and will end in  time.
T3:21.7  and the true Self to exist together is for the truth to be lived in  time. In order for the truth to be lived in time you must forget your
T3:21.7  the truth to be lived in time. In order for the truth to be lived in  time you must forget your uncertainty and be certain of the truth.
T3:21.18  existence to seem to have more of a dualistic nature for a short  time while you carry observance forward into observance of your
T3:21.18  personal self. As was said at the beginning of this Treatise, by the  time the learning of this Treatise is complete, the personal self
T3:21.21 While this has been called the  time of Christ, it is obviously no longer the time of Jesus Christ.
T3:21.21  has been called the time of Christ, it is obviously no longer the  time of Jesus Christ. My time came and my time ended. The time when a
T3:21.21  of Christ, it is obviously no longer the time of Jesus Christ. My  time came and my time ended. The time when a single baby born of a
T3:21.21  is obviously no longer the time of Jesus Christ. My time came and my  time ended. The time when a single baby born of a virgin mother could
T3:21.21  longer the time of Jesus Christ. My time came and my time ended. The  time when a single baby born of a virgin mother could change the
T3:22.12  the dualistic world in which you have lived, a world wherein a lag  time exists between what is and what will be. You may have, upon
T3:22.14  where what is, is separated from what will be by your effort and the  time that it will take you to, through your effort, create the
T3:22.15  The creative tension existed not only as a product of the duality of  time, but also as a product of distrust. It was a tension that
T4:1.8 As is clearly being seen amid many school systems in the current  time, the choice to not learn what is taught in school, when taken up
T4:1.11  is the same question that has been asked throughout the existence of  time. Some have chosen to come to know themselves and God directly.
T4:1.11  All are chosen and so it could not be otherwise. But at the same  time, it must be seen that your choice matters in time, even if all
T4:1.11  But at the same time, it must be seen that your choice matters in  time, even if all will make the same choice eventually.
T4:1.13  you might just be able to achieve what others have not; that this  time might just be different than any other time. Even as you begin
T4:1.13  have not; that this time might just be different than any other  time. Even as you begin to tentatively let this excitement grow, your
T4:1.13  ago, by countless souls more worthy than you, and ushered in the  time of heaven on earth and the end of suffering long ago? Could many
T4:1.14  and uncertainty, your fear of believing in yourself and in this  time as the time to end all time. There must be something different
T4:1.14  your fear of believing in yourself and in this time as the  time to end all time. There must be something different about this
T4:1.14  of believing in yourself and in this time as the time to end all  time. There must be something different about this time, the
T4:1.14  time to end all time. There must be something different about this  time, the capabilities of those existing within it. It must be your
T4:1.14  or technology, your advanced mental abilities, or even your leisure  time that has opened up this opportunity. The only alternative would
T4:1.14  alternative would seem to be that this must be simply the chosen  time and you the chosen people. If the chosen time had been two
T4:1.14  be simply the chosen time and you the chosen people. If the chosen  time had been two thousand years ago, life would have been different
T4:1.16  same as saying the truth exists within you. It is in this way that  time is not real and will no longer be real to you as you come to
T4:1.17 The difference between this  time and the time that has but seemed to have gone before has already
T4:1.17 The difference between this time and the  time that has but seemed to have gone before has already been stated
T4:1.17  gone before has already been stated as the difference between the  time of the Holy Spirit and the time of Christ. This has also been
T4:1.17  stated as the difference between the time of the Holy Spirit and the  time of Christ. This has also been restated as the difference between
T4:1.17  of Christ. This has also been restated as the difference between the  time of learning through contrast and the time of learning through
T4:1.17  the difference between the time of learning through contrast and the  time of learning through observation. It is further stated here as
T4:1.18  choosing you by choosing God. This is all the chosen people are in  time—those who have chosen God as God has chosen them. That you
T4:1.18 —the means of Christ-consciousness, is what has ushered in the new  time.
T4:1.20  religions and varying sets of beliefs that, in the way of the  time—the way of learning through contrast—provided contrast
T4:1.20  learning did occur and has continued to occur even unto this  time. You have learned much of the nature of the truth by seeing what
T4:1.22  called you to the limits of the state of consciousness that was the  time of the Holy Spirit. This limit acted upon you as a catalyst to
T4:1.23  yearning has driven them to and thought, incorrectly, that the new  time that is here is the end of the days of innocence. You may have
T4:1.24  experience. Many not yet grown to maturity have been born into the  time of Christ, and do not fit within the time or the consciousness
T4:1.24  have been born into the time of Christ, and do not fit within the  time or the consciousness of the Holy Spirit.
T4:1.25 For a short  time, an overlap is occurring during which those unable to allow
T4:1.26 Those born into the  time of Christ will settle for nothing less than the truth and will
T4:1.27 Let me repeat that during the  time of the Holy Spirit, some were able to come to know themselves
T4:1.27  or experience. It means that the last generation born into the  time of the Holy Spirit will live out their lives and that soon all
T4:1.27  and that soon all who remain on earth will be those born into the  time of Christ.
T4:2.4  no Way or path or process back to God and Self before me. It was the  time of man wandering in the wilderness. I came as a representation
T4:2.4  Self. Jesus the man was the intermediary who ushered in the  time of the Holy Spirit by calling the Holy Spirit to possess the
T4:2.5  and relationship is still The Way and The Way has come into the  time of its fullness.
T4:2.7  it did not exist; that there are others living among you in this  time who will not become aware of their true nature does not mean
T4:2.7  the truth of all of your brothers and sisters from the beginning of  time until the end of time. Any text that tells you that you or those
T4:2.7  brothers and sisters from the beginning of time until the end of  time. Any text that tells you that you or those of your kind or time
T4:2.7  of time. Any text that tells you that you or those of your kind or  time are more or better than any other is not speaking the truth.
T4:2.8  if you were to see into the eyes and hearts of any human from any  time with true vision, you would see the accomplished Self there.
T4:2.9  you familiar with the Bible, upon hearing words such as the end of  time or the fullness of time, think of the predictions of the
T4:2.9  Bible, upon hearing words such as the end of time or the fullness of  time, think of the predictions of the biblical end of time. I speak
T4:2.9  fullness of time, think of the predictions of the biblical end of  time. I speak of this because it is in your awareness and because
T4:2.9  is in your awareness and because many false interpretations of this  time as a time of judgment and of separating the chosen people from
T4:2.9  awareness and because many false interpretations of this time as a  time of judgment and of separating the chosen people from all others
T4:2.10  not consistent with the idea of unity. If you proceed into this new  time thinking that this new time will separate you from others, or
T4:2.10  of unity. If you proceed into this new time thinking that this new  time will separate you from others, or cause you, as the chosen, to
T4:2.10  chosen, to be separate, you will not become fully aware of the new  time. Full awareness of the new is what this Treatise seeks to
T4:2.12  that others will soon do the same, and that those who follow in  time will do so more easily, with less effort, and with even greater
T4:2.12  success. They may consider themselves “better than” for a moment in  time, but those who do will be bitterly disappointed as their moment
T4:2.14  past, to believe that you are chosen to be the pioneers into a new  time without believing that you are special. This is one of the many
T4:2.21  that exists with you, including the days that make up your life in  time and space. Observing what is unites you with the present in that
T4:2.23  that feel real with like-minded associates for brief periods of  time, but still essentially seeing yourself moving through life
T4:2.28  union is what differentiated me from my brothers and sisters at the  time of my life on earth. Because my state of consciousness, a state
T4:3.6  is joyful, effortless, and full of love. For every being existing in  time there is also an unnatural state of being. Both states of being
T4:3.6  brought a child into a fearful world, became subject to the tests of  time. Thus did the world become a world of effort with all things in
T4:3.13 Man has striven since the beginning of  time to be done with the separated state of a being of form, and at
T4:3.13  be done with the separated state of a being of form, and at the same  time to hang on to life; not realizing that what exists in form does
T4:4.4  The passing of a parent was seen, particularly historically, as the  time of the child of the parent coming into his or her inheritance or
T4:4.4  of the child of the parent coming into his or her inheritance or  time of fullness. The power and prestige, the earthly wealth of the
T4:4.5  of the reasons that I came in the form of the “son of God.” In the  time in which I lived, the idea of inheritance was an even stronger
T4:4.9  Treatise is called “A Treatise on the New.” There has not been a  time on Earth in which the inheritance of God the Father was
T4:4.9  of God the Father was accepted, save by me. This is why this  time is spoken of as the time of fullness. It is the time during
T4:4.9  was accepted, save by me. This is why this time is spoken of as the  time of fullness. It is the time during which you have within your
T4:4.9  is why this time is spoken of as the time of fullness. It is the  time during which you have within your awareness the ability to come
T4:4.9  which you have within your awareness the ability to come into your  time of fullness by accepting the inheritance of your Father. You
T4:5.2  form the orchestra and chorus of creation. You might think of your  time here as that of being apprentice musicians. You must learn or
T4:5.11  you are or who you think you are. You do not die to choice. At the  time of death you are assisted in ways not formerly possible to you
T4:5.12  a collective choice as one body, one consciousness, to end the  time of the intermediary and to begin to learn directly, you are
T4:5.13  hell. Others as all or nothing. Many of you have thought of it as a  time of judgment. But I tell you truly; it is no different than the
T4:5.13  time of judgment. But I tell you truly; it is no different than the  time that is upon you right now. The afterlife has simply been a time
T4:5.13  the time that is upon you right now. The afterlife has simply been a  time of increased choice because it has been a time of increased
T4:5.13  has simply been a time of increased choice because it has been a  time of increased awareness. Loosed of the body and the body's
T4:5.13  choice has been revealed to those having experienced death. At that  time it is your judgment of yourself and your ability to believe in
T4:5.13  your life will continue. The same is true right now! For this is the  time of Christ and thus of your ability to choose
T4:5.13  death. Being loosed of the body by death was the chosen means of the  time of the intermediary, the chosen means of attaining
T4:5.13  and direct revelation. The elevation of the personal self in this  time of Christ can be the new choice.
T4:6.4 In this  time of Christ, this time of direct revelation and direct sharing,
T4:6.4 In this time of Christ, this  time of direct revelation and direct sharing, the probable future you
T4:6.8 You have the unequalled opportunity now, because you exist in the  Time of Christ, to directly share Christ-consciousness and thus
T4:6.8  You can pass on the inheritance you accept in this fullness of  time. In this time of unity, dedicate all thought to unity. Accept no
T4:6.8  pass on the inheritance you accept in this fullness of time. In this  time of unity, dedicate all thought to unity. Accept no separation.
T4:6.8  Accept all choices. Thus are all chosen in the fullness of  time.
T4:7.2 That you are living in the  time of Christ does not mean that you will automatically realize
T4:7.2  automatically realize Christ-consciousness, just as living in the  time of the Holy Spirit did not mean that you would automatically
T4:7.2  of the spirit that was your intermediary. But just as during the  time of the Holy Spirit, your understanding of your Self and God grew
T4:7.2  through the indirect means that were available to you, during the  time of Christ, your understanding of your Self and God cannot help
T4:7.2  the direct and observable means now available. Just as in the  time of the Holy Spirit the spirit was available to all as
T4:7.2  Spirit the spirit was available to all as intermediary, during the  time of Christ, Christ-consciousness is available to all.
T4:7.3  will seem to lie before you and your brothers and sisters in this  time. The understanding of the unity that creates and sustains all
T4:7.3  now be as close to the surface of consciousness as was, during the  time of the Holy Spirit, the understanding that man is imbued with
T4:8.1  separate “you” or some species without form who at some point in  time chose to express love in physical form, and so began this
T4:8.5  lives in form. It has a starting point from which it grows into its  time of fullness. Creation on the scale at which God creates produced
T4:8.9  rebel against the learning that was needed in order to come into the  time of fullness of a being able to express itself in form, never
T4:9.4 But now the  time is upon you to leave learned works behind in favor of
T4:9.4  behind in favor of observation, vision and revelation. Now is the  time to leave behind study for imagining, envisioning, and desire.
T4:9.4  behind study for imagining, envisioning, and desire. Now is the  time to move out of the time of becoming who you are to the time of
T4:9.4  envisioning, and desire. Now is the time to move out of the  time of becoming who you are to the time of being who you are.
T4:9.4  is the time to move out of the time of becoming who you are to the  time of being who you are.
T4:9.5 You have felt this  time coming. You have realized that your learning has reached an end
T4:9.6  of a promise that has surely been made! Rejoice that the new  time is here and be ready to embrace it as it embraces you!
T4:9.7  ready finally to be loosed of the bounds of the personal self. This  time of concentration on the self is unheralded in history. It is
T4:9.9  sisters in this next phase of the journey, the journey out of the  time of learning that will usher in the fullness of time.
T4:9.9  out of the time of learning that will usher in the fullness of  time.
T4:10.1  to becoming a true student, and to now leading you beyond the  time of being a student to the realization of your accomplishment.
T4:10.2  learning you will meet resistance and realize, for perhaps the first  time, that learning is what your entire life has been about. You
T4:10.11  Self of love in form. No longer learning is the revelation that the  time of accomplishment is upon you and the expression of the Self of
T4:10.12  can be learned. It is something that can only be lived. This is the  time of the fulfillment of the lesson of the birds of the air who
T4:10.13 As I said earlier, some will not be willing to move out of the  time of learning. Those who have learned what this Course would teach
T4:12.2 From this  time on, I will respond to you through direct communication or
T4:12.3 At this  time, there is a gathering of pioneers of the new already in
T4:12.8  state. All conditions that were intermediary in nature during the  time of learning, are, during the time of sharing, naturally
T4:12.8  intermediary in nature during the time of learning, are, during the  time of sharing, naturally converted to direct experiences of sharing.
T4:12.9  of students, gather still, and experience sharing directly. If a  time arrives when you no longer feel drawn to these modes of sharing,
T4:12.10 All you must remember now is that the  time of learning is past. While you are still encountering concerns
T4:12.12  soon as he was content within the life of the monastery, that it was  time to once again move out into the world. What he was really saying
T4:12.12  as the sign that one period of learning was over and that it was  time to move on to the next. During the time of learning, this
T4:12.12  was over and that it was time to move on to the next. During the  time of learning, this statement was consistent with learned wisdom.
T4:12.12  this statement was consistent with learned wisdom. During the new  time of sharing, there is no “next phase” of learning for you to move
T4:12.17  I attempted to dislodge much of this learned wisdom during my  time on Earth and man is still puzzling over the meaning of my words.
T4:12.17  on Earth and man is still puzzling over the meaning of my words. The  time for puzzlement is over. Pass on no more of the prevailing
T4:12.19  you to try to remember to turn to the new rather than the old each  time you think you are experiencing uncertainty or lack.
T4:12.28  The individual or singular consciousness that was appropriate to the  time of learning does not continue. Thus the new pattern is one of
T4:12.32  in form are yet to be revealed and shared. This is the  time that is before us, the time of creation of the future, the time
T4:12.32  to be revealed and shared. This is the time that is before us, the  time of creation of the future, the time of the creation of a future
T4:12.32  the time that is before us, the time of creation of the future, the  time of the creation of a future not based upon the past.
T4:12.33 This  time is before us. Because you are a being still existing in form,
T4:12.33  are a being still existing in form, you still exist in the realm of  time and space. Yet time and space no longer separate us, and the
T4:12.33  in form, you still exist in the realm of time and space. Yet  time and space no longer separate us, and the creation of the design
D:1.9 These anti-ego tendencies are a real danger in this  time. You are not called to selflessness but to Self !
D:1.10  thus elevating the personal self. You have thus been self-less for a  time and the personal self has floundered from this lack of identity.
D:1.10  from this lack of identity. A person could literally die during this  time from lack of identity, lack of cause. To die to the personal
D:1.10  being identity-less. The reign of the ego began during just such a  time of identity-less-ness. You cannot go on in such a way.
D:2.5  doctor, teacher, scientist, priest, or engineer is completed, it is  time for the student to claim a new identity—that of doctor,
D:2.5  To continue to feel a need to learn rather than realizing that the  time of learning has come to an end, would be to not realize
D:2.11  seen as a “successful pattern,” and would be repeated until such a  time as the pattern failed to achieve the successful grade or outcome
D:2.17  example, an example of a system which you believe works most of the  time, and are happy to use to acquire a desired end, but which, when
D:3.6 Duality and contrast are synonymous. In the  time of the Holy Spirit, you learned through contrast. You learned
D:3.6  of love and fear, sickness and health, life and death. In this  time of Christ, such learning is no longer necessary, and so these
D:3.7  declassify all the various aspects of life that were needed in the  time of learning. This is why we began quite truthfully and simply
D:3.23  power is needed for the creation of the Covenant of the New in this  time of Christ.
D:4.2  same, you also are not different. The differences you saw during the  time of learning, differences that made you feel as if each being
D:4.3 It is  time now for this idea to be accepted, for if it is not, you will
D:4.7  the prison system is a very successful deterrent. The thought of  time in prison fills the mind with fear. And yet those who are
D:4.11  confident that you have either seen and learned enough during your  time as a learning being that you accept that a divine design created
D:4.13  recreated 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
D:4.18  our divine existence, is now recreating the patterns that served the  time of learning. What was learned in the instant in which you came
D:4.18  this has taken so long or on the suffering that occurred during the  time of learning. This would be like dwelling on the inmate's life as
D:5.8  as 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
D:5.11  is given. All was given 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
D:5.11  is. Now, as you join with the truth, your representation, in the new  time that is before us, will be what is, in its representation.
D:5.12 Love and the loving patterns given in the  time of learning are all that exist in all you see. But what now will
D:5.12  of those around you comes to an end? What was created to serve the  time of learning, to represent what is and aid you in your return to
D:5.14 In this  time of Christ, we are not called to recreate the “tools” of learning
D:5.20  prison, if you continue to think of your environment, your mind, and  time as a prison, how can it exist in perfect harmony with the
D:5.21  learning will change to help you embrace the acceptance of this new  time of no time. You will wonder how to live in time as a being no
D:5.21  change to help you embrace the acceptance of this new time of no  time. You will wonder how to live in time as a being no longer bound
D:5.21  of this new time of no time. You will wonder how to live in  time as a being no longer bound by time. And I tell you truly, that
D:5.21  You will wonder how to live in time as a being no longer bound by  time. And I tell you truly, that once acceptance of what is is
D:6.1  and this you were told as well. I say this to remind you that the  time of “teaching” like the time of “learning” had its place as well
D:6.1  well. I say this to remind you that the time of “teaching” like the  time of “learning” had its place as well as its methods.
D:6.2  that of comparison, a method that will be used less and less as the  time of learning passes. The thought reversal of which we recently
D:6.2  of which we recently spoke is why I bring this up. During your  time of learning, I used a method of comparison—I compared the real
D:6.2  than let them go in order to embrace true representation. In the  time of learning, you were so entrenched in your false beliefs that
D:6.2  needed to be stated and stated again. But as we enter this new  time of elevated form, these same ideas—ideas that many of you
D:6.5 Like all that was created for the  time of learning, the body was the perfect learning device. Seeing it
D:6.5  Seeing it as such assisted us in bringing about the end of the  time of learning. But now your body—your form—must be seen in a
D:6.9  there were many stories about miracles, both before and after the  time in which I lived. If you were to pose to a scientist whether or
D:6.13  if it has been a false certainty, it served a great purpose in the  time of learning. Discovery has been a grand facilitator of the human
D:6.14  as well as to the creation of something new. For in this  time of revelation, discovery is the new divine pattern that will
D:6.16 Be jubilant rather than hesitant about the  time of discovery that is before you. Calling what you think you know
D:6.22  change the “laws” of the body, the laws you gave the body in the  time of learning, knowing not what the design of the body
D:6.25 The body was, in the  time of learning, representative of a learning being. The ego,
D:6.26  I say changed here because you may remember that change occurs in  time. Outside of time and form your Self has always existed in the
D:6.26  here because you may remember that change occurs in time. Outside of  time and form your Self has always existed in the perfect harmony in
D:6.26  has joined the elevated Self of form, you exist together both in  time and outside of time. Remember, the elevated Self of form will
D:6.26  Self of form, you exist together both in time and outside of  time. Remember, the elevated Self of form will never be all that you
D:6.26  will merely represent one aspect of your wholeness in the field of  time.
D:6.27  elevated Self of form, however, being a form that still exists in  time, must realize the consciousness of the true Self in time. What
D:6.27  exists in time, must realize the consciousness of the true Self in  time. What this means is that the elevated Self of form may still
D:6.27  unity. This is why we have spoken of miracles and of the collapse of  time the miracle is capable of providing. We have redefined the
D:6.28 Form and  time go together. Yet you have been told time is a measurement of
D:6.28 Form and time go together. Yet you have been told  time is a measurement of learning. If you are no longer a learning
D:6.28  of learning. If you are no longer a learning being, for what is  time needed? Time is needed now only for the transformation of the
D:6.28  If you are no longer a learning being, for what is time needed?  Time is needed now only for the transformation of the self from a
D:7.2  is shared. This language was used because you were still, at that  time, a learning being. Now we will adjust our language somewhat to
D:7.3  could be shared at another level, and that levels are a function of  time. We then talked of the integration of levels that collapse time.
D:7.3  of time. We then talked of the integration of levels that collapse  time. This integration of levels is the integration of form and
D:7.3  of form and unity. When Christ-consciousness is sustained,  time will collapse and the sun may not need to rise or set to
D:7.4 Experiences of form take place in  time because experience, too, was designed for learning. Now
D:7.4  too, was designed for learning. Now experience is needed in  time to aid your total acceptance of what you have learned. In order
D:7.5  the embrace and the consciousness of unity and places you outside of  time. In this state, no duality exists. Doing and being are one.
D:7.7  only as a particular self, existing as man or woman in a particular  time in history. Now you are called to discover how to exist in form
D:7.8  while not seeing it as “bound” by the particularity of  time and space. It may still exist in a particular time and place,
D:7.8  particularity of time and space. It may still exist in a particular  time and place, but this is simply the nature of one aspect of what
D:7.15  in hand with the new pattern of discovery, but discovery is less  time bound. Let me explain.
D:7.16 Observation takes place in  time. Even while you have been called to observe what is, what you
D:7.16  what you are observing in form are the representations of what is in  time. Your envisioning too is bound to time and that is why so many
D:7.16  representations of what is in time. Your envisioning too is bound to  time and that is why so many of you think of envisioning as
D:7.16  envisioning as envisioning the future. Envisioning is less bound to  time than is observation because it is not about what your body's
D:7.18  because they are related to particular forms as they exist in  time. Time is not an aspect of eternity or of unity. Time is thus
D:7.18  because they are related to particular forms as they exist in time.  Time is not an aspect of eternity or of unity. Time is thus what has
D:7.18  they exist in time. Time is not an aspect of eternity or of unity.  Time is thus what has separated the self that exists in form from the
D:7.18  accepted existence as a non-particular being in a state outside of  time—you have accepted existence as a new Self, the Self of
D:7.19 Discovery is not bound by  time as it is an ongoing aspect of creation. As you were told in “A
D:7.21  matter, and of the creature's perception of its own experience in  time. This time-bound evolution is really adaptation. It occurs in
D:7.23 Everyone knows, in this  time of Christ, that the end of the old way is near and that the new
D:7.23  than adaptation, and evolution moves with them. But evolution in  time is part of the old that needs to be left behind. It is a
D:7.23  of the old that needs to be left behind. It is a provision of the  time of learning that allows the learning being to learn at his or
D:7.23  to learn at his or her own pace and to pass this learning on in  time.
D:7.25  of fear we leave behind as we abandon ideas of evolution in  time and proceed to an awareness of how the elevated Self of form can
D:7.25  how the elevated Self of form can replace the laws of evolution in  time with the laws of transformation outside of time.
D:7.25  laws of evolution in time with the laws of transformation outside of  time.
D:7.26  all that you are. The dot of your body is all that is bound by  time. What transformation outside of time asks you to do is to see
D:7.26  body is all that is bound by time. What transformation outside of  time asks you to do is to see the body as but this one, small, aspect
D:7.26  and others, you have learned to view your body in the field of  time. This will be helpful now as you begin to imagine the “more”
D:7.26  that exists beyond the body's boundary and beyond the boundary of  time and particularity.
D:7.27 This circle in which you have placed your body is not a circle of  time and space. It is not a circle that can be drawn around where you
D:8.1  of the wider circle. In this area of the wider circle, there is no  time, no space, no particularity. It is an area of unlimited freedom.
D:8.3  a natural ability or talent that existed in some form prior to the  time of learning. We concentrate on this idea merely as an idea and
D:8.3  in you that you have experienced something that existed prior to the  time of learning. And that this something was quite wonderful.
D:8.4 You might think of this ability that existed prior to the  time of learning as coming from the content of the wider circle of
D:9.12  the natural abilities you discovered existed within you prior to the  time of learning, ideas are also discoveries that you make,
D:10.2 Learning is about the transfer of knowledge that was gained in the  time of learning, through the process of learning. Notice the
D:10.4  of these givens, since that expression exists in the realm of  time and space and involves the work and time of your form in your

D:10.7 In this  time of Christ, discovery is about acceptance of your true way of
D:10.7  of your true way of knowing, a way that existed prior to the  time of learning and that has always existed. When put into practice
D:11.6  achieved what you have desired? Is it not possible to conceive of a  time in which desire will no longer serve you, just as learning now
D:11.11  not live from this belief is insane for reasons already enumerated  time and time again. What prevents this belief from becoming an

D:13.1 There is no danger, in this  time, that you will know the truth and then discover that you were

D:13.8  join with others who are experiencing the expanding awareness of the  time of Christ, and you will begin to see the evidence that things
D:14.4  in the discovery that lies beyond the body and mind, form and  time. You will need to put into practice the suspension of belief
D:14.10  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 the next. But
D:14.12  and so the idea of becoming that has been with humankind throughout  time must signal a recognition that what you are is not complete, has
D:14.15  begins with awareness of what is beyond body and mind, form and  time. It proceeds to this awareness being accepted, adopted as an
D:14.15  act of becoming the elevated Self of form. You are thus entering the  time of becoming, the time of becoming the new you which must precede
D:14.15  Self of form. You are thus entering the time of becoming, the  time of becoming the new you which must precede creation of the new
D:14.17 This wholeness of being is what lies beyond body and mind, form and  time. Becoming the elevated Self of form is becoming whole, and will

D:15.1  principles are like unto the patterns that were created for your  time of learning and that will be applied anew to the creation of new
D:15.1  will be applied anew to the creation of new patterns for the new  time that is upon us.
D:15.3  the life force of creation and of being, both in unity and in  time. By being you are in movement. By being you are an expression of

D:15.15  sailing—flying along with the wind at your back—and at another  time sitting still or seemingly bobbing along with no apparent
D:15.18  to receive the maximum connection to unity that is possible in this  time. You realize that some breaks in service will still occur, that
D:15.21  conditions of learning. Why? Because they are no longer needed. The  time of learning has ended. When this time of becoming has ended, the
D:15.21  they are no longer needed. The time of learning has ended. When this  time of becoming has ended, the conditions that allow your acceptance
D:16.2  exist in unity. Creation occurs in each of us, seemingly one at a  time. Creation is our coming into our true identity, and is the
D:16.4  place as separate steps. This is so because of the condition of  time. Once these principles are unified, time will have ended just as
D:16.4  because of the condition of time. Once these principles are unified,  time will have ended just as time was once begun.
D:16.4  Once these principles are unified, time will have ended just as  time was once begun.

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

D:16.15  of becoming is to realize that an in-between exists between the  time of learning and the time of being the elevated Self of form;
D:16.15  that an in-between exists between the time of learning and the  time of being the elevated Self of form; that times still exist in
D:16.16  all of your former ideas about yourself, all of the patterns of the  time of learning, all of the moments in which you feel an inability

D:16.19  that remain, like memories of childhood. This time of becoming is a  time of coming to acceptance of them as what they are—images. This
D:16.19  time of coming to acceptance of them as what they are—images. This  time of becoming is a time of coming to acceptance that they are not
D:16.19  of them as what they are—images. This time of becoming is a  time of coming to acceptance that they are not real. They are no more
D:16.20 The  time of becoming is a time of letting these images be without
D:16.20 The time of becoming is a  time of letting these images be without reacting to them. It is a
D:16.20  a time of letting these images be without reacting to them. It is a  time of coming to no longer “hold” these images in your mind and
D:16.20  to no longer “hold” these images in your mind and heart. It is a  time of letting them first cease to affect you, and then of letting
D:16.21  are false images, and when you retain them you do not allow for the  time of learning to be replaced with the only replacement that will

D:17.7  offer up your glory and call it down from heaven, both at the same  time.
D:17.11  has been provided, the journey taken. You are present. Now is the  time for your response.
D:17.14  achieved what you have desired? Is it not possible to conceive of a  time in which desire will no longer serve you, just as learning now
D:17.25 This is why you have been told the  time of parables, or stories, has ended. This is why you have been
D:Day1.6  you have arrived here and left behind the state of the initiate, the  time of waiting. You have chosen. You are merely asked now to look at
D:Day1.14  of the holy men and women who walked the way of the world since my  time learned, accepted, and lived the teachings that have brought you
D:Day1.14  the world would be a different place. Have I not called you to a new  time in which the conditions of learning exist no more? In which the
D:Day1.24  of your true Self and true home, in a form that will take you beyond  time to eternity.
D:Day1.25  history proceeds with gaps only waiting to be fulfilled in current  time, so too is it with the story of creation.
D:Day1.27  my baptism and my acknowledgment as the Son of God, and preceded my  time of living as my Self in the world. So too does it with you. You
D:Day2.1  of your Self is acceptance of your inheritance. Now is the  time to come into full acceptance of the human self as well as the
D:Day2.1  acceptance of the human self as well as the Self of unity. It is  time for the final merging of the two into one Self, the elevated
D:Day2.4  This is the moment of fulfillment and desire coming together, the  time in which to realize “it was all worth it.”
D:Day2.5 This is the  time of revelation of meaning. You who have so long striven to give

D:Day2.18  does not mean that my life did not happen, that it did not occur in  time and space, just as yours is occurring now in time and space.
D:Day2.18  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 and space
D:Day2.18  now in time and space. What this means is that what occurs in  time and space is symbolic, that it is representative of something

D:Day2.25 Here, then, is where you need to make the choice that those in my  time could not make, the choice to end suffering. This is the choice
D:Day3.2 What was it that was “taught” to in the  time of learning? It was the mind. Thus, your mind has been trained
D:Day3.2  learning might be seen as the way learning was meant to be, the  time of this pure learning has grown shorter and shorter while the
D:Day3.2  time of this pure learning has grown shorter and shorter while the  time of enforced learning has grown more entrenched.
D:Day3.9  and thus a life of limits of which you are more accepting. But given  time to consider such an idea, you are likely to become more and more
D:Day3.12  all ideas of lack, an idea you so thoroughly learned during the  time of learning that letting it go, even now, still torments you
D:Day3.13 This is the basic fallacy that the  time of learning supported. The idea of “if this, then that.” The
D:Day3.22  aspirations of wealth, and replaced them with ideas of having more  time, more fulfilling work, simpler pleasures, and yet you still see
D:Day3.27  at ease, for you are not called to sacrifice, as you have been told  time and time again. I do not ask you to give up what you desire, but
D:Day3.27  for you are not called to sacrifice, as you have been told time and  time again. I do not ask you to give up what you desire, but to
D:Day3.30  so many of you are thankful for your good health while at the same  time dreading the disease that may at any point take it from you,
D:Day3.35 You have been told that the  time of the Holy Spirit, the time of a need for an intermediary
D:Day3.35 You have been told that the time of the Holy Spirit, the  time of a need for an intermediary between yourself and God, is gone.
D:Day3.38 What you have “learned,” and since the  time of learning had revealed to you, is a new way, the way of direct
D:Day3.50  value. You may have many good and even inspired ideas within this  time. You may feel as if you are on the right track, that through the
D:Day4.1  brings attention to these areas most incorrectly influenced by the  time of learning. Remember here all the “arguments” that I needed to
D:Day4.5  has been with you and within you. Although the divine design of the  time of learning is being recreated, the ceaseless pattern of
D:Day4.7  learning of childhood. Learning begins long before the onset of the  time of language that constitutes your ideas about what it means to
D:Day4.16  realize fairly quickly that my life challenged the world-view of the  time and that it is still challenging the world-view of your time.
D:Day4.16  of the time and that it is still challenging the world-view of your  time. Why might this be?
D:Day4.20 In the  time of learning, however, it was natural that my example life was
D:Day4.30 Thinking, in this  time beyond learning, could be rightly seen as a constraint you but
D:Day4.31  to abundance and all the treasure that will come with the end of the  time of learning. You, on the other hand, are thinking, yearning,
D:Day4.31  on such as these, you impose a function unnatural to this  time of Christ-consciousness upon this time. It is as if you ask to
D:Day4.31  a function unnatural to this time of Christ-consciousness upon this  time. It is as if you ask to see clearly and then hold your hands
D:Day4.34  temptations and the new. You realize that this is the purpose of our  time together here even though you have not put this purpose into
D:Day4.35  just a little more and reach heaven. You thus may think of this  time on the mountain as a time of getting in touch with your own
D:Day4.35  reach heaven. You thus may think of this time on the mountain as a  time of getting in touch with your own access to God, your own access
D:Day4.35  there you will find this access, this portal to all that lies beyond  time and space, to all that exists in the place of unity.
D:Day4.36 We talked earlier of this as a  time of fulfillment and desire. We acknowledged that your desire is
D:Day4.36  that your desire is stronger than ever before. Now is the  time to focus on this desire and fulfillment, to stretch this desire
D:Day4.41  temptations, the first real choice of Christ-consciousness, of the  time beyond learning.
D:Day4.49  of being fearless, you will know this, and you will pass through the  time of coming to acceptance again and again until you are ready. You
D:Day4.49  you are ready. You cannot fail but can only delay. For some the  time of delay has passed. For those who linger in the time of
D:Day4.49  For some the time of delay has passed. For those who linger in the  time of acceptance, there is reason for this as well.
D:Day4.51  is what you are here coming to know once again, which is why the  time of fear, and along with it the time of learning, can cease to be.
D:Day4.51  once again, which is why the time of fear, and along with it the  time of learning, can cease to be.
D:Day4.52 I have not so directly linked fear and the  time of learning before, but now you need to see their connection,
D:Day4.54  there is still anything that can hold you back. This is what the  time of acceptance was meant to show you! Nothing can hold you back
D:Day4.55  You are asked but to accept your own homecoming. To leave behind the  time of wandering, seeking, learning. To leave behind fear for the
D:Day4.56  it to. It does not come at the end but at the beginning of our  time together for a reason. This is simply because this choice is the
D:Day4.59  discussions still to be had. We are only at the beginning of our  time together.
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
D:Day5.19  Remember that union cannot be learned, for if it could be, the  time of learning would be perpetuated rather than ended.
D:Day6.1  will discuss being the true Self while becoming the true Self—the  time in between your awareness of and access to Christ-consciousness,
D:Day6.1  of becoming is to realize that an in-between exists between the  time of learning and the time of being the elevated Self of form.
D:Day6.1  that an in-between exists between the time of learning and the  time of being the elevated Self of form. This is what our time on
D:Day6.1  and the time of being the elevated Self of form. This is what our  time on this holy mountain is largely comprised of. We are in an
D:Day6.1  mountain is largely comprised of. We are in an in-between state of  time. We stand at the intersection point of the finite and the
D:Day6.2 While you know this is the focus of our  time together, few, if any of you, feel as if you have truly taken
D:Day6.3  of the difference you have chosen, we thus must address this  time so that any confusion it seems to be causing will not delay your
D:Day6.4  we will return to this example. We have spoken of becoming as the  time of movement, being, and expression coming together. We have
D:Day6.6  art? I choose this particular example to address this particular  time of being in-between. Let us consider the creation of a piece of
D:Day6.7 At one  time the creation of a piece of music is only an idea in the mind and
D:Day6.7  Some collaboration might take place to get it just right. By the  time the artist has completed the piece of music she began, it may
D:Day6.8  may come because the artist knows it is “good enough” to deserve the  time and attention, or the commitment may come as a recognition that
D:Day6.17  elevation can be postponed, put off, or can wait for some convenient  time. Quite the contrary. We are having our dialogue on the holy
D:Day6.20  They were temptations of the world, of the normal, daily life of my  time. They were attempts to distract me from my purpose, to change my
D:Day6.24  a teacher and become a companion. Would you desire to prolong your  time as an apprentice by being removed from the performance of your
D:Day6.30  here is that you do not. What you are going to realize from this  time of seeming difficulty is an end to difficulty and the growth of
D:Day6.30  who you are in any situation in which you find yourself. There is no  time to wait while you learn, or think you learn, the qualities that
D:Day6.32  it was replaced by acceptance. The conditions, however, of this  time of acceptance are not the conditions of the time of learning,
D:Day6.32  however, of this time of acceptance are not the conditions of the  time of learning, and so you will soon see that the difficulty of the
D:Day6.32  of learning, and so you will soon see that the difficulty of the  time of learning truly is behind you.
D:Day6.33 Let us speak now of the conditions of the  time of acceptance, for these will cheer you.
D:Day7.2 Denial of yourself was the precondition that set the stage for the  time of learning. The time of learning would not have been needed had
D:Day7.2  the precondition that set the stage for the time of learning. The  time of learning would not have been needed had you not denied your
D:Day7.3 Acceptance of your Self is the precondition for the  time of acceptance. You are no longer denying your Self. You are no
D:Day7.4 Life is now supported. Support is thus a condition of the  time of acceptance.
D:Day7.5  were supported, the idea of learning that you accepted during the  time of learning was not one of support but one of effort. You must
D:Day7.6  from fear will have a major transformative effect on form in this  time of acceptance. Regeneration is a condition of the time of
D:Day7.6  form in this time of acceptance. Regeneration is a condition of the  time of acceptance.
D:Day7.7 Another condition of the  time of acceptance that will be of great service to you now is that
D:Day7.7  now is that of the different relationship that you will have with  time. This is a time of convergence, intersection, and pass-through
D:Day7.7  the different relationship that you will have with time. This is a  time of convergence, intersection, and pass-through of the finite and
D:Day7.7  intersection, and pass-through of the finite and the infinite, of  time and no time. Time has not yet ceased to be, but as you are in a
D:Day7.7  and pass-through of the finite and the infinite, of time and no  time. Time has not yet ceased to be, but as you are in a state of
D:Day7.7  pass-through of the finite and the infinite, of time and no time.  Time has not yet ceased to be, but as you are in a state of
D:Day7.7  without. As you let go of time's hold on you, it will let go of you.  Time will seem to expand but will actually be contracting into
D:Day7.7  seem to expand but will actually be contracting into nothingness.  Time is replaced by presence, by your ability to exist in the here
D:Day7.8 Again let me remind you that you are in an in-between  time. Thus these conditions I have spoken of and those I have yet to
D:Day7.9  of fear that led the body to exhibit the conditions of fear in the  time of learning. Thus it is the mind's acceptance of love that will
D:Day7.9  love that will lead the body to exhibit the effects of love in the  time of acceptance.
D:Day7.10 A further condition of the  time of acceptance is that of expansion. The singular self you once
D:Day7.11 Conditions of the  time of acceptance are conditions of creation and include those we
D:Day7.15 Access to unity is a phrase that will only be used in this in-between  time. You have always existed in unity and once this is fully
D:Day7.16  you and sustained within Christ-consciousness, the conditions of the  time of acceptance, like the conditions of the time of learning, will
D:Day7.16  the conditions of the time of acceptance, like the conditions of the  time of learning, will pass. There are no conditions in the state of
D:Day7.17 There will be, however, a new stage following the  time of acceptance in which the elevated Self of form will be created
D:Day7.18  about now is the present. It is here, in this present and given  time on the mountain that you must realize that the conditions of the
D:Day7.18  on the mountain that you must realize that the conditions of the  time of acceptance, like the conditions of the time of learning,
D:Day7.18  the conditions of the time of acceptance, like the conditions of the  time of learning, arise from within. Life has always existed within
D:Day7.18  from within. Life has always existed within the conditions of the  time of acceptance. The conditions of the time of learning were but
D:Day7.18  the conditions of the time of acceptance. The conditions of the  time of learning were but imposed conditions that also arose from
D:Day7.19 The conditions of the  time of acceptance that we have spoken of are thus not new
D:Day7.19  learning and the imposition, from within, of the conditions of the  time of learning.
D:Day7.20 The condition of the  time of acceptance that will most clearly reveal to you your status
D:Day8.1  of removing yourself from normal life. Even the conditions of the  time of acceptance may not have cheered you fully. Now, with the
D:Day8.1  have cheered you fully. Now, with the ideas of the conditions of the  time of acceptance fresh in your minds and hearts, let's return to
D:Day8.8  now. There will be many things within your life that will take some  time to change, but many others that can change instantly through
D:Day8.17  there has been a reason for this discussion coming so late in our  time together. To accept the feelings of the self of illusion would
D:Day8.20  for yourself, thus the only “standard” that is consistent with the  time of acceptance is that of acceptance.
D:Day8.21  the misdirection of the past if you accept your feelings in present  time and begin to be aware of your natural ability to respond truly
D:Day8.21  to respond truly because you have accepted your feelings in present  time. This is a recognition that by being in the present you know
D:Day8.26  have experienced will not last because you will not be choosing the  time of acceptance.
D:Day8.27 I have called this  time both the time of unity and the time of acceptance because you
D:Day8.27 I have called this time both the  time of unity and the time of acceptance because you cannot only
D:Day8.27 I have called this time both the time of unity and the  time of acceptance because you cannot only focus on unity when you
D:Day8.27  It is the bypassing of this “how to” function—a function of the  time of learning—that we are heading toward.
D:Day8.29  not the new. This is thinking comprised of the time-delay of the  time of learning—of a time when you used your feelings, opinions,
D:Day8.29  thinking comprised of the time-delay of the time of learning—of a  time when you used your feelings, opinions, and judgments
D:Day9.5  This confidence is what must precede true certainty in this  time of elevation of the self of form. The certainty that arises from
D:Day9.12  your ideal image, no matter how it was formed, is a product of the  time of learning. It became an image in your mind, and maybe even
D:Day9.13 This ideal image is intimately related with the  time of learning in another way as well. It is the epitome of
D:Day9.15 As with most goals of the  time of learning, it was an ego-centered goal, a carrot of
D:Day9.16  to the learning that would return you to your true identity. But the  time for such tools is over.
D:Day9.22  of their difference, to the world, but hold it in waiting for such a  time as the ideal is reached.
D:Day9.33  your acceptance of yourself as you are, the real challenge of this  time, begins to grow and to build your confidence. Unity and your
D:Day10.5 Realize that in the  time of learning, you felt a need for your doubt just as you felt a
D:Day10.12  form and while it was the perfect vehicle for learning in the  time of learning, it is now being transformed into the perfect
D:Day10.12  work with what has been in a new way, and as you all know from the  time of learning, it is often more difficult to become adept in doing
D:Day10.21 I have spoken with you throughout this  time as the man Jesus so that you realize that man and
D:Day10.21  be joined. That you, as man or woman, existing in this particular  time and space, can join with Christ-consciousness. You can be
D:Day10.22  have been told since the beginning of this Course that this is the  time of the second coming of Christ. What we have just discussed is
D:Day10.25  discussion of unity and relationship, let me spend my final  time with you as the man Jesus talking more of feelings.
D:Day10.32  When speaking of the many issues facing your world in this  time, we are speaking of situations that would seem to be extreme and
D:Day10.35 Although I need no awareness of the issues facing your  time in order to speak to you of such things, I am aware of them. So
D:Day10.35  relationship. What I have often referred to as the urgency of this  time has been partially because of these issues and partially because
D:Day10.35  power have been sought. This is what has occurred. This is the  time at which we stand.
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
D:Day14.1 All  time is included in the spacious Self. Acceptance is necessary
D:Day14.13  voice of the many will continue to point the way for only a short  time longer. Thus the voice of the many must be heard as the voice of
D:Day15.7  and making spirit known through form is the difference for which the  time has come. The observation you have practiced has prepared you to
D:Day15.8  of form with spirit is an ongoing aspect of creation. It is thus not  time bound. It did not take place at the birth of creation and then
D:Day15.10  form have practiced and that has never been practiced by many at one  time. It is a major shift because it is not neutral but creative. It
D:Day15.11  of Christ-consciousness. This is an acceptable state for this  time of limited practice with those with whom you are engaged in this
D:Day15.14  dispels the darkness. This is what we are here for. There is no  time to waste and no protracted length of time will be required if
D:Day15.14  are here for. There is no time to waste and no protracted length of  time will be required if your willingness is true.
D:Day15.16  of the One Self with the “one group self.” This is not a  time of being judged or of adopting the beliefs of others but one of
D:Day15.22  slip into observable states of being. There is a purpose for this  time in which both informing and observing, being informed and being
D:Day15.23  yesterday was as nothing to what you know today, while at the same  time, aiding in the realization that what you come to know has always
D:Day15.24  you have not been asked to remove yourself from life during this  time on the mountain, you have been asked to be here and to join with
D:Day15.24  to be here and to join with others here for a purpose. As such, this  time is also a beginning to the practice of realizing and being able
D:Day15.27 You may, thus, find that there is a  time of walking alone approaching, or a time of gathering with many.
D:Day15.27  thus, find that there is a time of walking alone approaching, or a  time of gathering with many. You will realize that you have felt
D:Day15.27  with many. You will realize that you have felt cocooned by the  time on the mountain and by those who have joined you, and that you
D:Day16.9  you must become fully aware of the present. The present is the  time of no time, wholeness, where all that is real and all that was
D:Day16.9  become fully aware of the present. The present is the time of no  time, wholeness, where all that is real and all that was ever real
D:Day16.11  is what you do not want to know. You do not want to know every  time you predetermine, in advance of knowing, what something is or
D:Day17.3  repeating what has been said before? Because we have reached the  time, once again, for you to claim your identity. Although being who
D:Day17.11 Christ-consciousness is your will to know, to be, and to express. The  time of Christ, and the second coming of Christ, are expressions
D:Day17.12  demonstrated has now been realized, which is why this is called the  time of Christ. The “time” of Christ, whom so many associate with
D:Day17.12  could be taught and learned has been taught and learned. Now it is  time to move beyond what could be taught and learned to what can only
D:Day17.12  to what can only be realized through relationship. Now is the  time of the final revelation of what can be realized, or made real,
D:Day17.13  of the way of Jesus is the stage of interaction with the world, the  time of miracles, the death of the old way and the birth of the new.
D:Day18.2  they return wholeness and will bring about the completion of the  time of Christ. This symbiotic working together will be essential for
D:Day18.3 As has been said, the  time of teaching and learning is over. If the way of Jesus was a way
D:Day18.6  it the claim of all that is temporary. This is why we have spent  time on the idea of sickness and other unwanted states as temporary
D:Day19.8  with God. This is quite literally the function of all in this new  time. When we speak of functions unique to each, we speak of
D:Day19.11  and such ideas as acclaim and obscurity will be no more. But at this  time of transition, both ways are needed to demonstrate the means of
D:Day19.17  of the new to be cast and thus to ride out the many storms of this  time of transition.
D:Day21.10 Realize that this is the aim of our final  time together. Concentrate on making the first transition and on the
D:Day21.10  the reversal of thought that it requires. Thus will you carry this  time forward with you into creation of the new.
D:Day22.1  channeling. Yesterday we spoke of teachers being channels during the  time of learning. It was also noted that you realize that all of life
D:Day22.8  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 for
D:Day22.8  human being. It is now time to quit acting as if it is not. It is  time to be a channel for the awareness that exists in every tree and
D:Day22.8  every flower, in each mountain stream and in the blowing wind. It is  time to be a channel for the awareness of union with God that exists
D:Day22.10  with God is expressed and made real here and now. There is no other  time. There is no “higher” self waiting to do what only you can do.
D:Day23.4 The clouds of illusion, even those that have gently surrounded our  time together on the mountain top must now be surrendered, much as a
D:Day25.3  need not guard against an over-zealous ego-mind. Your ideas in this  time may sound crazy, even to your own ears. Let them come. Your
D:Day25.4 You need not, in this  time, seek either questions or answers. You need rather, in this
D:Day25.4  time, seek either questions or answers. You need rather, in this  time, to come into the practice of letting the new come. It is in the
D:Day25.5 Rather than a  time of questions and answers, you might think of this time as a time
D:Day25.5 Rather than a time of questions and answers, you might think of this  time as a time of sorting and culling. Become used to letting what
D:Day25.5  a time of questions and answers, you might think of this time as a  time of sorting and culling. Become used to letting what comes to you
D:Day25.6  weeds. Think of yourself as stockpiling this harvest. It is not yet  time for the harvest celebration. It is, rather, a time for gathering.
D:Day25.6  It is not yet time for the harvest celebration. It is, rather, a  time for gathering.
D:Day25.7 This is a  time of preparation, not a time of waiting. What you need to know now
D:Day25.7 This is a time of preparation, not a  time of waiting. What you need to know now cannot be gathered except
D:Day27.2  thus begun to experience on two levels. This has been a goal of the  time we have spent together in this way.
D:Day27.5  to level ground because you have practiced during our mountain top  time together the ability to experience on two levels.
D:Day28.1 At one  time there seemed to be little or no choice between staying engaged
D:Day28.4 As the  time of schooling is left behind, the next stage of movement begins,
D:Day28.17  you have made, on the externalization of what is within. At the same  time however, what is within has been based upon what was previously
D:Day28.18 This change, this transformation, can only take place within  time because only within time is the experience of separation
D:Day28.18  transformation, can only take place within time because only within  time is the experience of separation possible, and experience is
D:Day28.18  lies. This transformation will, however, take you beyond  time, because once experience is moved out of the realm of separation
D:Day28.18  this first change, this first transformation, must take place in  time.
D:Day28.19  we have been working on by changing your experience of  time to one of experiencing two levels of “time.” Our “time” on the
D:Day28.19  on the mountain would be more rightly described as “time outside of  time.”
D:Day28.20  of time” and “time” simultaneously. Thus is the “wholeness” of  time, or eternity, experienced and made real. Eternity might thus be
D:Day28.20  unchanging constant that has not been affected by the variable of  time. Said in another way, eternity and time are part of the same
D:Day28.20  affected by the variable of time. Said in another way, eternity and  time are part of the same continuum as are properties such as hot and
D:Day28.23  is the simple realization that it is possible. This is what our  time on the mountain has provided you with: The experience required
D:Day32.9  the concept of a living God. How might God live? Could He live in  time and space in a dimension we know not? Does He live as the spirit
D:Day32.15  All and not also be man? How can God be all that is and at the same  time not all that is? How can God be the All Powerful and Living God
D:Day32.18  of experience you have achieved during the days and nights of our  time together, be attempts to show you how you can be more like unto
D:Day33.12  expression of power—all the different expressions of power. In the  time of Jesus, the powerful were seen as being blessed by God and the
D:Day33.15  that you are in relationship with everything and everyone all of the  time, is to realize the full extent of your power. You cannot realize
D:Day33.15  that you are in relationship with everything and everyone all of the  time and retain the desire to use your power. This is impossible. The
D:Day33.15  that you are in relationship with everything and everyone all of the  time is the realization of oneness and unity, the realization that
D:Day34.8 Thus we continue to draw to the close of our  time together by asking each other to experience our power—the
D:Day35.9  neither learned nor accomplished. They simply are. They thus take no  time to learn and require no steps to accomplishment. They can be
D:Day35.14  anything but love could have disastrous effects. This has been seen  time and time again as you have “created” in separation.
D:Day35.14  but love could have disastrous effects. This has been seen time and  time again as you have “created” in separation.
D:Day35.16  it exists has produced the idea of separation, while at the same  time, humankind's desire for separation produced unawareness of union
D:Day35.16  has led to awareness of union and relationship while at the same  time union and relationship has led to this desire. Creation itself,
D:Day35.16  apart from particulars but united with wholeness, has led to this  time of opposites becoming one and wholeness becoming actual rather
D:Day35.20  being who you are being, just as you have “created” during the  time of your separation by being who you have thought yourself to be.
D:Day36.18  and the truth of being in union and relationship. Both at the same  time. Both/and rather than either/or. Cause and Effect. Means and
D:Day36.19  when it is stated as directly as it is being stated here. But our  time together is coming to an end and your acceptance of the truth of
D:Day37.23  of Jesus Christ himself, is not all of God, while at the same  time it is all of God just as Jesus was and is all of God. In union
D:Day37.25 Jesus was all of God and God was all of Jesus while at the same  time each was different or individuated by being in union and
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, how much I
D:Day38.10  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 it is time
D:Day38.10  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
D:Day39.7  between the separate and each other, between all and God. Yet if the  time of Christ is about the end of the need for the intermediary,
D:Day39.18  thousands of other “things,” you separated from yourself only in  time and space. In time and space your projections became separate

D:Day4.52 I have not so directly linked fear and the  time of learning before, but now you need to see their connection,

W1:74.3 Begin the longer practice periods by repeating these thoughts several  times, slowly and with firm determination to understand what they
W1:75.7  merely wait to have it shown to you. While you wait, repeat several  times slowly and in complete patience:

W1:78.11  God gave Him that you might be saved. God thanks you for these quiet  times today in which you laid your images aside and looked upon the
W1:R2.2  about three or four minutes to reading them over slowly, several  times if you wish, and then close your eyes and listen. Repeat the
W1:91.5 Three  times today, set aside about ten minutes for a quiet time in which
W1:91.14 Five or six  times an hour at reasonably regular intervals remind yourself that
W1:94.3  waking hour to the attempt to feel the truth in you. Begin these  times of searching with these words:

W1:135.26  extravagant demands for sacrifice. You give up nothing in these  times today when undefended you present yourself to your Creator as
W1:151.13  at the beginning of the time you spend with God. We introduce these  times with but a single, slow repeating of the thought with which the
W1:153.16  as we remember to be faithful to the will we share with God. At  times, perhaps, a minute, even less, will be the most that we can
W1:153.16  we can offer as the hour strikes. Sometimes we will forget. At other  times the business of the world will close on us, and we will be

W1:186.10  which the world esteems are so uncertain that they change ten  times an hour at their most secure. What hope of gain can rest on
W1:R6.10  for specific thoughts to aid your practicing. Instead we give these  times of quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, speaks of
W2:I.1  alone. The lessons which remain are merely introductions to the  times in which we leave the world of pain and go to enter peace. Now
W2:I.3  all the days to come. And we will use that thought to introduce our  times of rest and calm our minds at need. Yet we will not content
W2:I.4  to make us happy? We will offer it, and it will be accepted. So our  times with Him will now be spent. We say the words of invitation that
W2:I.6 I am so close to you we cannot fail. Father, we give these holy  times to You in gratitude to Him Who taught us how to leave the world

W1:65.6  no attempt to concentrate only on thoughts related to the idea for  today. Rather, try to uncover each thought that arises which would
W1:65.11 Finally, repeat the idea for  today once more and devote the rest of the practice period to trying
W1:66.3  Today we will try to go past this wholly meaningless battle and
W1:66.4 Our longer practice period  today has as its purpose your acceptance of the fact that not only is
W1:66.11 Think about this during the longer practice period  today. Think also about the many forms which the illusion of your
W1:66.12 We need great honesty  today. Remember the outcomes fairly and consider also whether it was
W1:66.13  side stand all illusions. All truth stands on the other. Let us try  today to realize that only the truth is true.
W1:66.14 In the shorter practice periods, which would be most helpful  today if undertaken twice an hour, this form of the application is
W1:67.2 We will make every effort  today to reach this truth about you and to realize fully, if only for
W1:67.4  with God as He defines Himself is appropriate for use. We are trying  today to undo your definition of God and replace it with His own. We
W1:67.6 You may find it necessary to repeat the idea for  today from time to time to replace distracting thoughts. You may also
W1:67.6  yourself as Love created you. Be confident that you will do much  today to bring that awareness nearer, whether you feel you have
W1:67.7 It will be particularly helpful  today to practice the idea for today as often as you can. You need to
W1:67.7 It will be particularly helpful today to practice the idea for  today as often as you can. You need to hear the truth about yourself
W1:68.5  grievances go. That, however, is simply a question of motivation.  Today we will try to find out how you would feel without them. If you
W1:69.2  Today let us make another real attempt to reach the light in you.
W1:69.3 Let us begin our longer practice period  today with the full realization of all this and real determination to
W1:69.3  Learning salvation is our only goal. Let us end the ancient search  today by finding the light in us and holding it up for everyone who
W1:69.5  convinced of their lack of substance. We will make this attempt  today.
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
W1:69.8 Have confidence in your Father  today. And be certain that He has heard you and has answered you. You
W1:69.13 if you are tempted to hold anything against anyone  today.
W1:70.1  than some form of the basic temptation not to believe the idea for  today. Salvation seems to come from anywhere except from you. So,
W1:70.5  that healing did not occur; God's purpose was to ensure that it did.  Today we practice realizing that God's Will and ours are really the
W1:70.6  because it makes us unhappy. Therefore, in accepting the idea for  today, we are in agreement with God. He does not want us to be sick.
W1:70.7 We are ready for two longer practice periods  today, each of which should last some ten to 15 minutes. We will,
W1:70.8 Begin these practice periods by repeating the idea for  today, adding a statement signifying your recognition that salvation
W1:70.14 For the short and frequent practice periods  today, remind yourself that your salvation comes from you and nothing
W1:71.7 How can you escape all this? Very simply. The idea for  today is the answer. Only God's plan for salvation will work. There
W1:71.8 Let us practice recognizing this certainty  today. And let us rejoice that there is an answer to what seems to be
W1:71.9 Begin the two longer practice periods for  today by thinking about today's idea, and realizing that it contains
W1:71.13  only His, will work. Be alert to all temptation to hold grievances  today, and respond to them with this form of today's idea:
W1:71.15 Try to remember the idea for  today some six or seven times an hour. There could be no better way
W1:72.9 We will try  today to stop these senseless attacks on salvation. We will try to
W1:72.11 Our goal in the longer practice periods  today is to become aware that God's plan for salvation has already
W1:72.18  or perhaps two shorter practice periods an hour will be enough for  today since they will be somewhat longer than usual. These exercises
W1:73.1  Today we are considering the will you share with God. This is not the
W1:73.4  Today we will try once more to reach the world that is in accordance
W1:73.7  your will as well. You want to succeed in what we are trying to do  today. We undertake it with your blessing and your glad accord.
W1:73.8 We will succeed  today if you remember that you will salvation for yourself. You will
W1:73.9  Today it is the ego which stands powerless before your will. Your
W1:73.9  can prevail against it. Therefore we undertake the exercises for  today in happy confidence, certain that we will find what it is your
W1:73.9  wishes can detain us nor deceive us with an illusion of strength.  Today let your will be done. And end forever the insane belief that
W1:73.11 You will succeed  today, the time appointed for the release of the Son of God from hell
W1:74.1 The idea for  today can be regarded as the central thought toward which all our
W1:74.2 There is great peace in today's idea. And the exercises for  today are directed towards finding it. The idea itself is wholly
W1:74.2  illusions, conflict is impossible. Let us try to recognize this  today and experience the peace this recognition brings.
W1:74.12  yourself slipping off into withdrawal, quickly repeat the idea for  today and try again. Do this as often as necessary. There is definite
W1:74.13  which should be undertaken at regular and predetermined intervals  today, say to yourself:
W1:74.14 There is no will but God's. I seek His peace  today.
W1:74.15  half-hour, with eyes closed if possible, would be well spent on this  today.
W1:75.2  Today we celebrate the happy ending to your long dream of disaster.
W1:75.2  dream of disaster. There are no dark dreams now. The light has come.  Today the time of light begins for you and everyone. It is a new era
W1:75.2  world is born. The old one has left no trace upon it in its passing.  Today we see a different world because the light has come.
W1:75.3 Our exercises for  today will be happy ones in which we offer thanks for the passing of
W1:75.3  remain to darken our sight and hide the world forgiveness offers us.  Today we will accept the new world as what we want to see. We will be
W1:75.4  to see, and only this. Our single purpose makes our goal inevitable.  Today the real world rises before us in gladness, to be seen at last.
W1:75.5 We do not see the ego's shadow on the world  today. We see the light, and in it we see Heaven's reflection lie
W1:75.7 Dwell not upon the past  today. Keep a completely open mind, washed of all past ideas and
W1:75.7  clean of every concept you have made. You have forgiven the world  today. You can look upon it now as if you never saw it before. You do
W1:75.10  He promised you. From this time forth you will see differently.  Today the light has come. And you will see the world that has been
W1:75.11  of your release. Remind yourself every quarter of an hour or so that  today is a time for special celebration. Give thanks for mercy and
W1:75.11  the darkness of the past upon your eyes, you cannot fail to see  today. And what you see will be so welcome that you will gladly
W1:75.11  And what you see will be so welcome that you will gladly extend  today forever. Say, then:
W1:75.15  you be. Keep it in your awareness of yourself and see it everywhere  today, as we celebrate the beginning of your vision and the sight of
W1:76.2  Today we will be glad you cannot prove it. For if you could, you
W1:76.2  would forever seek where it is not and never find it. The idea for  today tells you once again how simple is salvation. Look for it where
W1:76.7 The laws of God can never be replaced. We will devote  today to rejoicing that this is so. It is no longer a truth which we
W1:76.8 We will begin the longer practice period  today with a short review of the different kinds of “laws” we have
W1:76.10 There are no laws but God's. Dismiss all foolish magical beliefs  today and hold your mind in silent readiness to hear the Voice that
W1:76.12 Let us  today open God's channels to Him and let His Will extend through us
W1:76.14 We will repeat this dedication as often as possible  today—at least four or five times an hour, as well as in response
W1:77.1  a statement of your true Identity. It is this that we will celebrate  today.
W1:77.3  Today we will claim the miracles which are your right since they
W1:77.3  can never be lost. We ask no more than what belongs to us in truth.  Today, however, we will also make sure that we will not content
W1:77.6  you accepted must be so. There is no room for doubt and uncertainty  today. We are asking a real question at last. The answer is a simple
W1:77.7  also be devoted to a reminder of a simple fact. Tell yourself often  today:
W1:78.2  Today we go beyond the grievances to look upon the miracle instead.
W1:78.4  Today we will attempt to see God's Son. We will not let ourselves be
W1:78.6  role the Holy Spirit has assigned to him. Let him be savior unto you  today. Such is his role in God your Father's plan.
W1:78.7 Our longer practice periods  today will see him in this role. We will attempt to hold him in our
W1:78.11  Him that you might be saved. God thanks you for these quiet times  today in which you laid your images aside and looked upon the miracle
W1:79.7 In our longer practice periods  today, we will ask what the problem is and what is the answer to it.
W1:79.8 Our exercises for  today will be successful to the extent to which we do not insist on
W1:79.9 The shorter practice periods for  today will not be set by time but by need. You will see many problems
W1:79.9  will not be set by time but by need. You will see many problems  today, each one calling for an answer. Our efforts will be directed
W1:79.10 Be not deceived by the form of problems  today. Whenever any difficulty seems to rise, tell yourself quickly:
W1:80.2  only problem has been solved! Repeat this over and over to yourself  today with gratitude and conviction. You have recognized your only
W1:80.3 You are entitled to peace  today. A problem that has been resolved cannot trouble you. Only be
W1:80.4 In our longer practice periods  today, we will claim the peace that must be ours when the problem and
W1:80.6 Assure yourselves often  today that your problems have been solved. Repeat the idea with deep
W1:80.6  possible. And be particularly sure to remember to apply the idea for  today to any specific problem that may arise. Say quickly:
W1:80.8 Let us be determined not to collect grievances  today. Let us be determined to be free of problems that do not exist.
W1:81.1 Our ideas for review  today are:
W1:82.1 We will review these ideas  today:
W1:83.1  Today let us review these ideas:
W1:84.2  and I cannot die. I am not a body. I would recognize my reality  today. I will worship no idols nor raise my own self-concepts to
W1:84.5  Self thus becomes alien to me. I am determined not to attack my Self  today, so that I can remember who I am.
W1:85.5 [70] My salvation comes from me.  Today I will recognize where my salvation is. It is in me because its
W1:86.1 These ideas are for review  today:
W1:87.1 Our review  today will cover these ideas:
W1:87.2 [73] I will there be light. I will use the power of my will  today. It is not my will to grope about in darkness, fearful of
W1:87.2  and afraid of things unseen and unreal. Light shall be my guide  today. I will follow it where it leads me, and I will look only on
W1:87.5 [74] There is no will but God's. I am safe  today because there is no will but God's. I can become afraid only
W1:87.5  I try to attack can I believe that my eternal safety is threatened.  Today I will recognize that all this has not occurred. I am safe
W1:88.1  Today we will review these ideas:
W1:89.1 These are our review ideas for  today:
W1:90.2  Let me recognize the problem so it can be solved. Let me realize  today that the problem is always some form of grievance which I would
W1:90.2  is always a miracle with which I let the grievance be replaced.  Today I would remember the simplicity of salvation by reinforcing the
W1:91.4  you but realize how great this strength, your doubts would vanish.  Today we will devote ourselves to the attempt to let you feel this
W1:91.5 Three times  today, set aside about ten minutes for a quiet time in which you try
W1:91.8  question with which this statement ends is needed for our exercises  today. What you think you are is a belief to be undone. But what you
W1:92.1 The idea for  today is an extension of the previous one. You do not think of light
W1:92.9  ready to embrace you as Its own. Such is the meeting place we try  today to find and rest in, for the peace of God is where your Self,
W1:92.10 Let us give 20 minutes twice  today to join this meeting. Let yourself be brought unto your Self.
W1:92.10  the gift of sight is given you. Leave, then, the dark a little while  today, and we will practice seeing in the light, closing the body's
W1:92.11  in hope and trust. Let us repeat as often as we can the idea for  today and recognize that we are being introduced to sight and led
W1:93.3  Today we question this, not from the point of view of what you think,
W1:93.8 In our longer exercise periods  today, which would be most profitable if done for the first five
W1:93.17 You can do much for the world's salvation  today. You can do much today to bring you closer to accepting the
W1:93.17 You can do much for the world's salvation today. You can do much  today to bring you closer to accepting the part in salvation which
W1:93.17  part in salvation which God has assigned to you. And you can do much  today to bring the conviction to your mind that the idea for the day
W1:94.1  Today we continue with the one idea which brings complete salvation;
W1:94.3  Today we will again devote the first five minutes of each waking hour
W1:94.9 Tell yourself frequently  today that you are as God created you. And be sure to respond to
W1:94.11 Make every effort to do the hourly exercises  today. Each one you do will be a giant stride toward your release and
W1:95.3 We will attempt  today to be aware of only what can hear and see and what makes
W1:95.3  is united with its Creator. In patience and in hope we try again  today.
W1:95.12 This is the truth, and nothing else is true.  Today we will affirm this truth again and try to reach the place in
W1:95.12  there is no doubt that only this is true. Begin the practice periods  today with this assurance, given to your mind with all the certainty
W1:95.19 Do not forget  today. We need your help, your little part in bringing happiness to
W1:95.19  the world. And Heaven looks to you in confidence that you will try  today. Share, then, its surety, for it is yours. Be vigilant. Do not
W1:95.19  Share, then, its surety, for it is yours. Be vigilant. Do not forget  today.
W1:95.20  a call to all the world to be at one with you. To everyone you meet  today be sure to give the promise of today's idea and tell him this:
W1:96.9 We will attempt  today to find this thought, whose presence in your mind is guaranteed
W1:96.16 Your Self knows that you cannot fail  today. Perhaps your mind remains uncertain yet a little while. Be not
W1:96.17 Each time  today you tell your frantic mind salvation comes from your One Self,
W1:97.1  factors into unity. It simply states the truth. Practice this truth  today as often as you can, for it will bring your mind from conflict
W1:97.3  Today we try to bring reality still closer to your mind. Each time
W1:97.5 Give Him the minutes which He needs  today to help you understand with Him you are the Spirit that abides
W1:97.11 Offer each practice period  today gladly to Him. And He will speak to you, reminding you that you
W1:97.11  for His assurance every time you speak the words He offers you  today, and let Him tell your mind that they are true.
W1:97.12  belief that you are something else. The Holy Spirit gives you peace  today. Receive His words, and offer them to Him.
W1:98.1  Today is a day of special dedication. We take a stand on but one side
W1:98.1 Today is a day of special dedication. We take a stand on but one side  today. We side with truth and let illusions go. We will not vacillate
W1:98.1  take a firm position with the one. We dedicate ourselves to truth  today and to salvation as God planned it be. We will not argue it is
W1:98.2 How happy to be certain! All our doubts we lay aside  today and take our stand with certainty of purpose and with thanks
W1:98.3  the perfect time and place. They took the stand which we will take  today that we may share their certainty and thus increase it by
W1:98.4 They will be with us—all who took the stand we take  today will gladly offer us all that they learned and every gain they
W1:98.4  come to make their choice again. We do not choose but for ourselves  today.
W1:98.7 Each hour  today give Him your tiny gift of but five minutes. He will give the
W1:98.8  say, and you will go beyond their sound to what they really mean.  Today you practice with Him as you say:
W1:98.10  the glad receiver of His gifts, that you may give them to the world  today.
W1:99.9  who will yet work miracles, be sure you practice well the idea for  today. Try to perceive the strength in what you say, for these are
W1:99.11 Practice His thought  today, and let His Light seek out and lighten up all darkened spots
W1:99.12 Think of these things in practicing  today, and start your longer practice periods with this instruction
W1:99.16 You have a special message for  today which has the power to remove all forms of doubt and fear
W1:100.5 We will not let ourselves be sad  today. For if we do, we fail to take the part that is essential to
W1:100.6  Today we will attempt to understand joy is our function here. If you
W1:100.7 You are God's messenger  today. You bring His happiness to all you look upon, His peace to
W1:100.7  His message in your happy face. We will prepare ourselves for this  today in our five minute practice periods by feeling happiness arise
W1:100.10  will be there. You are essential to His plan. You are His messenger  today. And you must find what He would have you give.
W1:100.11 Do not forget the idea for  today between your longer practice periods. It is your Self Who calls
W1:100.11  your longer practice periods. It is your Self Who calls to you  today. And it is Him you answer every time you tell yourself you are
W1:101.1  Today we will continue with the theme of happiness. This is a key
W1:101.5 You need the practice periods  today. The exercises teach sin is not real, and all that you believe
W1:101.6 There is no sin. We practice with this thought as often as we can  today because it is the basis for today's idea. God's Will for you is
W1:101.10  Today escape from madness. You are set on freedom's road, and now
W1:101.10  faster to the waiting goal of peace. There is no sin. Remember this  today, and tell yourself as often as you can:
W1:102.2  Today we try to loose its weakened hold still further. And to realize
W1:102.2  existence like itself. You have been slave to nothing. Be you free  today to join the happy Will of God.
W1:102.4 Begin the longer practice periods  today with this acceptance of God's Will for you:
W1:102.7  as Himself. Besides these hourly five minute rests, pause frequently  today to tell yourself that you have now accepted happiness as your
W1:103.3 This basic error we will try again to bring to truth  today and teach ourselves:
W1:103.5 Begin your periods of practicing  today with this association, which corrects the false belief that God
W1:103.6  this one correction to be placed within your mind each waking hour  today. Then welcome all the happiness it brings, as truth replaces
W1:103.7 God, being Love, is also happiness. And it is happiness I seek  today. I cannot fail because I seek the truth.
W1:104.2  Today we would remove all meaningless and self-made gifts which we
W1:104.3  are timeless. And we need not wait to have them. They belong to us  today. Therefore we will to have them now and know in choosing them
W1:104.4 Our longer practice periods  today, the hourly five minutes given truth for your salvation, should
W1:104.7  we come to find what has been given us by Him. We come in confidence  today, aware that what belongs to us in truth is what He gives. And
W1:104.8 So do we clear the way for Him  today by simply recognizing that His Will is done already and that
W1:105.1 God's peace and joy are yours.  Today we will accept them, knowing they belong to us. And we will try
W1:105.6  Today accept God's peace and joy as yours. Let Him complete Himself
W1:105.6  through loss. No more can you. Receive His gift of joy and peace  today, and He will thank you for your gift to Him.
W1:105.7  Today our practice periods will start a little differently. Begin
W1:105.7 Today our practice periods will start a little differently. Begin  today by thinking of those brothers who have been denied by you the
W1:105.9  to you 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
W1:105.10 You must succeed  today if you prepare your mind as we suggest, for you have let all
W1:105.11 Spend your five minutes thus with Him each time you can  today, but do not think that less is worthless when you cannot give
W1:105.12 Determine not to interfere  today with what He wills. And if a brother seems to tempt you to deny
W1:106.2  and shows the way to peace to those who cannot see. Be still  today and listen to the truth. Be not deceived by voices of the dead
W1:106.3 Be not afraid  today to circumvent the voices of the world; walk lightly past their
W1:106.3  lightly past their meaningless persuasion. Hear them not. Be still  today, and listen to the truth. Go past all things which do not speak
W1:106.3  His hand, held out to you in welcome and in love. Hear only Him  today, and do not wait to reach Him longer. Hear one Voice today.
W1:106.3  only Him today, and do not wait to reach Him longer. Hear one Voice  today.
W1:106.4  Today the promise of God's Word is kept. Hear and be silent. He would
W1:106.5 Prepare yourself for miracles  today. Today allow your Father's ancient pledge to you and all your
W1:106.5 Prepare yourself for miracles today.  Today allow your Father's ancient pledge to you and all your brothers
W1:106.5  ancient pledge to you and all your brothers to be kept. Hear Him  today, and listen to the Word which lifts the veil which lies upon
W1:106.6 Hear Him  today, and offer Him your voice to speak to all the multitudes who
W1:106.6  to all the multitudes who wait to hear the Word that He will speak  today. Be ready for salvation. It is here and will today be given
W1:106.6  He will speak today. Be ready for salvation. It is here and will  today be given unto you. And you will learn your function from the
W1:106.7 Listen  today, and you will hear a Voice Which will resound throughout the
W1:106.8  Today we practice giving, not the way you understand it now, but as
W1:106.11 Be still and listen to the truth  today. For each five minutes spent in listening, a thousand minds are
W1:106.12  Today the holy Word of God is kept through your receiving it to give
W1:106.12  what giving means by listening and learning it of Him. Do not forget  today to reinforce your choice to hear and to receive the Word by
W1:106.12  the Word by this reminder, given to yourself as often as is possible  today:
W1:106.13 Let me be still and listen to the truth. I am the messenger of God  today. My voice is His, to give what I receive.
W1:107.8  Today belongs to truth. Give truth its due, and it will give you
W1:107.9  Today we practice on the happy note of certainty that has been born
W1:107.9  The shaky and unsteady footsteps of illusion is not our approach  today. We are as certain of success as we are sure we live and hope
W1:107.9  and hope and breathe and think. We do not doubt we walk with truth  today and count on it to enter into all the exercises that we do this
W1:107.11  mind which tell you you could be apart from Him. You speak to Him  today and make your pledge to let His function be fulfilled through
W1:107.15 Do not forget your function for  today. Each time you tell yourself with confidence, “Truth will
W1:108.7  Today we practice with the special case of giving and receiving. We
W1:108.7  because it has results we cannot miss. To give is to receive.  Today we will attempt to offer peace to everyone and see how quickly
W1:108.8 So we begin the practice periods with the instruction for  today and say:
W1:108.13 Our very simple lesson for  today will teach you much. Effect and cause will be far better
W1:108.13  we will make much faster progress now. Think of the exercises for  today as quick advances in your learning, made still faster and more
W1:109.1 We ask for rest  today and quietness unshaken by the world's appearances. We ask for
W1:109.6 You rest  today. And as you close your eyes, sink into stillness. Let these
W1:109.6  No more fearful dreams will come now that you rest in God. Take time  today to slip away from dreams and into peace.
W1:109.7 Each hour that you take your rest  today, a tired mind is suddenly made glad, a bird with broken wings
W1:109.8 With each five minutes that you rest  today the world is nearer waking. And the time when rest will be the
W1:109.9 You rest within the peace of God  today and call upon your brothers from your rest, to draw them to
W1:109.9  to their rest along with you. You will be faithful to your trust  today, forgetting no one, bringing everyone into the boundless circle
W1:109.10  all enter here and rest with you. You rest within the peace of God  today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to take his rest and
W1:109.11  together here, for thus our rest is made complete, and what we give  today we have received already. Time is not the guardian of what we
W1:109.11  we have received already. Time is not the guardian of what we give  today. We give to those unborn and those passed by, to every Thought
W1:110.9 You are as God created you.  Today honor your Self. Let graven images you made to be the Son of
W1:110.9  you made to be the Son of God instead of what He is be worshiped not  today. Deep in your mind the holy Christ in you is waiting your
W1:110.10 Seek Him  today, and find Him. He will be your savior from all idols you have
W1:110.10  are your idols and how false the images which you believed were you.  Today we make a great advance to truth by letting idols go and
W1:110.10  letting idols go and opening our hands and hearts and minds to God  today.
W1:110.11  with thankful hearts and loving thoughts for all who meet with us  today, for it is thus that we remember Him. And we will say, that we
W1:R3.1 Our third review begins  today. We will review two of the last 20 ideas each day until we have
W1:119.3  To give and to receive are one in truth. I will forgive all things  today, that I may learn how to accept the truth in me and come to
W1:120.2 [109] I rest in God. I rest in God  today and let Him work in me and through me, while I rest in Him in
W1:120.3 [110] I am as God created me. I am God's Son.  Today I lay aside all sick illusions of myself and let my Father tell
W1:121.8  of you, but of the Teacher Who was given you to show the way to you.  Today we practice learning to forgive. If you are willing, you can
W1:121.8  we practice learning to forgive. If you are willing, you can learn  today to take the key to happiness and use it on your own behalf. We
W1:121.9  that giving and receiving are the same. Yet we will try to learn  today that they are one through practicing forgiving toward one whom
W1:122.6  is no plan but this for the salvation of the Son of God. Let us  today rejoice that this is so, for here we have an answer, clear and
W1:122.7  what God has given as its own. God wills salvation be received  today and that the intricacies of your dreams no longer hide their
W1:122.8 Open your eyes  today, and look upon a happy world of safety and of peace.
W1:122.9 Remembering the gifts forgiveness gives, we undertake our practicing  today with hope and faith that this will be the day salvation will be
W1:122.9  day salvation will be ours. Earnestly and gladly will we seek for it  today, aware we hold the key within our hands, accepting Heaven's
W1:122.11  questions answered, and what your acceptance of the answer brings.  Today it will be given you to feel the peace forgiveness offers and
W1:122.12 Before the light you will receive  today the world will fade until it disappears, and you will see
W1:122.12  have been held in store for us since time began, kept waiting for  today. Forgiveness offers everything you want. Today all things you
W1:122.12  kept waiting for today. Forgiveness offers everything you want.  Today all things you want are given you.
W1:122.15 Forgiveness offers everything I want.  Today I have accepted this as true. Today I have received the gifts
W1:122.15  offers everything I want. Today I have accepted this as true.  Today I have received the gifts of God.
W1:123.1  Today let us be thankful. We have come to gentler pathways and to
W1:123.2  the gains which you have made; the gifts you have received. Be glad  today in loving thankfulness your Father has not left you to
W1:123.2  you made to take the place of Him and His creation. Give Him thanks  today.
W1:123.4  Today in gratitude we lift our hearts above despair and raise our
W1:123.4  looking downward to the dust. We sing the song of thankfulness  today in honor of the Self Which God has willed to be our true
W1:123.4  of the Self Which God has willed to be our true Identity in Him.  Today we smile on everyone we see and walk with lightened footsteps
W1:123.6 Receive the thanks of God  today, as you give thanks to Him. For He would offer you the thanks
W1:123.7 Receive His thanks and offer yours to Him for 15 minutes twice  today. And you will realize to Whom you offer thanks, and Whom He
W1:124.1  Today we will again give thanks for our Identity in God. Our home is
W1:124.3  we were created, smiles on us and offers us the happiness we gave.  Today we will not doubt His Love for us nor question His protection
W1:124.4  our faith and our awareness of His Presence. We are one with Him  today in recognition and remembrance. We feel Him in our hearts. Our
W1:124.4  His thoughts; our eyes behold His loveliness in all we look upon.  Today we see only the loving and the lovable.
W1:124.7  and we now would give, for we would keep the gifts our Father gave.  Today we would experience ourselves at one with Him, so that the
W1:124.8 Peace be to you  today. Secure your peace by practicing awareness you are one with
W1:124.8  awareness you are one with your Creator, as He is with you. Sometime  today, whenever it seems best, devote a half an hour to the thought
W1:124.8  your meditation. We will trust God's Voice to speak as He sees fit  today, certain He will not fail. Abide with Him this half an hour. He
W1:124.9  that nothing happens. You may not be ready to accept the gain  today. Yet sometime, somewhere, it will come to you, nor will you
W1:124.10 Perhaps  today, perhaps tomorrow, you will see your own transfiguration in the
W1:124.11 Perhaps  today, perhaps tomorrow, you will look into this glass and understand
W1:124.11  for the body's eyes to see, and yet you can be sure someday, perhaps  today, perhaps tomorrow, you will understand and comprehend and see.
W1:124.12  further jewels to the golden frame that holds the mirror offered you  today by hourly repeating to yourself:
W1:125.1  and of quiet listening. Your Father wills you hear His Word  today. He calls to you from deep within your mind where He abides.
W1:125.1  He calls to you from deep within your mind where He abides. Hear Him  today. No peace is possible until His Word is heard around the world;
W1:125.3 In stillness we will hear God's Voice  today without intrusion of our petty thoughts, without our personal
W1:125.3  without all judgment of His holy Word. We will not judge ourselves  today, for what we are cannot be judged. We stand apart from all the
W1:125.3  which the world has laid upon the Son of God. It knows him not.  Today we will not listen to the world, but wait in silence for the
W1:125.4  salvation and the holy time of peace. We gather at the throne of God  today, the quiet place within the mind where He abides forever in the
W1:125.6  Today He speaks to you. His Voice awaits your silence, for His Word
W1:125.6  Await His Word in quiet. There is peace within you to be called upon  today to help make ready your most holy mind to hear the Voice of its
W1:125.7 Three times  today, at times most suitable for silence, give ten minutes set apart
W1:125.8  the single Mind of Father and of Son. In quiet listen to your Self  today, and let Him tell you God has never left His Son, and you have
W1:125.9 Only be quiet. You will need no rule but this to let your practicing  today lift you above the thinking of the world and free your vision
W1:125.10 As every hour passes by  today, be still a moment and remind yourself you have a special
W1:126.8  Today we try to understand the truth that giver and receiver are the
W1:126.8  are accustomed. But the Help you need is there. Give Him your faith  today and ask Him that He share your practicing in truth today. And
W1:126.8  your faith today and ask Him that He share your practicing in truth  today. And if you only catch a tiny glimpse of the release which lies
W1:126.8  a tiny glimpse of the release which lies in the idea we practice for  today, this is a day of glory for the world.
W1:126.9 Give 15 minutes twice  today to the attempt to understand today's idea. It is the thought by
W1:126.11 As often as you can, remind yourself you have a goal  today—an aim which makes this day of special value to yourself and
W1:127.6  Today we practice making free our minds of all the laws you think you
W1:127.6  live, and all the changes which you think are part of human destiny.  Today we take the largest single step this course requests in your
W1:127.6  goal. If you achieve the faintest glimmering of what love means  today, you have advanced in distance without measure and in time
W1:127.7 Let us together, then, be glad to give some time to God  today and understand there is no better use for time than this. For
W1:127.7  there is no better use for time than this. For 15 minutes twice  today escape from every law in which you now believe. Open your mind
W1:127.8  and what love means. He will shine through your idle thoughts  today and help you understand the truth of love. In loving
W1:127.9  Today the legion of the future years of waiting for salvation
W1:127.9  before the timelessness of what you learn. Let us give thanks  today that we are spared a future like the past. Today we leave the
W1:127.9  Let us give thanks today that we are spared a future like the past.  Today we leave the past behind us, never more to be remembered. And
W1:128.3 Escape  today the chains you place upon your mind when you perceive salvation
W1:128.5  Today we practice letting go all thought of values we have given to
W1:128.7 Give it ten minutes rest three times  today. And when your eyes are opened afterwards, you will not value
W1:129.6  but what you choose instead you want indeed! Let it be given you  today. It waits but for your choosing it to take the place of all the
W1:129.10  Today the lights of Heaven bend to you, to shine upon your eyelids as
W1:129.10  can see it plainly and can understand. A day of grace is given you  today, and we give thanks. This day we realize that what you feared
W1:130.5  Today we will not seek for them nor waste this day in seeking not
W1:130.6  Today we will attempt no compromise where none is possible. The world
W1:130.6  made a choice as all-embracing as its opposite. What we would learn  today is more than just the lesson that you cannot see two worlds. It
W1:130.7 Six times  today in thanks and gratitude we gladly give five minutes to the
W1:130.11 Dismiss temptation easily  today whenever it arises merely by remembering the limits on your
W1:131.7 Why wait for Heaven? It is here  today. Time is the great illusion; it is past or in the future. Yet
W1:131.10  Today we will not choose a paradox in place of truth. How could the
W1:131.10  the place he cannot find. Leave foolish thoughts like these behind  today, and turn your mind to true ideas instead.
W1:131.11  fail who asks to reach the truth, and it is truth we ask to reach  today. We will devote ten minutes to this goal three times today, and
W1:131.11  to reach today. We will devote ten minutes to this goal three times  today, and we will ask to see the rising of the real world to replace
W1:131.15  fail 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
W1:131.17 You cannot fail  today. There walks with you the Spirit Heaven sent you that you might
W1:131.17  some day and through His aid slip effortlessly past it to the light.  Today that day has come. Today God keeps His ancient promise to His
W1:131.17  aid slip effortlessly past it to the light. Today that day has come.  Today God keeps His ancient promise to His holy Son, as does His Son
W1:131.18 Remember often that  today should be a time of special gladness, and refrain from dismal
W1:131.18  dismal thoughts and meaningless laments. Salvation's time has come.  Today is set by Heaven Itself to be a time of grace for you and for
W1:132.6  and must be borne in mind if you would understand the lesson for  today. It is not pride which tells you that you made the world you
W1:132.8  And some will find it in this course and in the exercises that we do  today.
W1:132.11 What is the lesson for  today except another way of saying that to know your Self is the
W1:132.15  Today our purpose is to free the world from all the idle thoughts we
W1:132.16 Begin the 15 minute periods in which we practice twice  today with this:
W1:133.1  learned, to bring him back to practical concerns. This we will do  today. We will not speak of lofty, world-encompassing ideas but dwell
W1:133.3 There are no satisfactions in the world.  Today we list the real criteria by which to test all things you think
W1:133.14  and claim it as their own. We will attempt to reach this state  today, with self-deception laid aside and with an honest willingness
W1:134.14  Today we practice true forgiveness that the time of joining be no
W1:134.15 That this may be accomplished, let us give a quarter of an hour twice  today and spend it with the Guide Who understands the meaning of
W1:135.22 We will anticipate that time  today with present confidence, for this is part of what was planned
W1:135.22  that everything we need is given us for our accomplishment of this  today. We make no plans for how it will be done but realize that our
W1:135.23 For 15 minutes twice  today, we rest from senseless planning and from every thought which
W1:135.23  from every thought which blocks the truth from entering our minds.  Today we will receive instead of plan, that we may give instead of
W1:135.26  your defenses have been aimed at not receiving what you will receive  today. And in the light and joy of simple truth, you will but wonder
W1:135.26  demands for sacrifice. You give up nothing in these times  today when undefended you present yourself to your Creator as you
W1:135.27 He has remembered you.  Today we will remember Him. For this is Eastertime in your salvation.
W1:135.28  of all the happiness that comes to you without your planning. Learn  today. And all the world will take this giant stride and celebrate
W1:136.15  its arms and cease to play with folly. It is found at any time— today, if you will choose to practice giving welcome to the truth.
W1:136.15  will choose to practice giving welcome to the truth. This is our aim  today. And we will give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the truth
W1:136.16  from us. It merely waits for just this invitation which we give  today. We introduce it with a healing prayer to help us rise above
W1:137.12  choice is but to ask what cannot be to be, and this cannot succeed.  Today we ask that only truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of
W1:137.14  and give ten minutes to these thoughts with which we will conclude  today at night as well:
W1:138.7 So we begin  today considering the choice that time was made to help us make. Such
W1:138.10  to make a choice like this? And shall we hesitate to choose  today?
W1:139.9  of God's Son is unassailed by his belief he knows not what he is.  Today accept Atonement, not to change reality, but merely to accept
W1:139.9  is but this that we are asked to do. It is but this that we will do  today.
W1:139.10  at night we will devote to dedicate our minds to our assignment for  today. We start with this review of what our mission is:
W1:139.13  with all aspects of creation, we repeat our dedication to our cause  today each hour, as we lay aside all thoughts that would distract us
W1:140.7 Let us not try  today to seek to cure what cannot suffer sickness. Healing must be
W1:140.8  Today we seek to change our minds about the source of sickness, for
W1:140.8  a cure for all illusions, not another shift among them. We will try  today to find the source of healing, which is in our minds because
W1:140.9 We will not be misled  today by what appears to us as sick. We go beyond appearances today
W1:140.9  misled today by what appears to us as sick. We go beyond appearances  today and reach the source of healing from which nothing is exempt.
W1:140.10  restoring saneness to the Son of God. No voice but this can cure.  Today we hear a single Voice which speaks to us of truth where all
W1:140.11  we can hear our Father speak to us. We hear Him now. We come to Him  today.
W1:140.14  our minds nor offer proof to us that it is real. This will we learn  today. And we will say our prayer for healing hourly and take a
W1:R4.1  for the second part of learning how the truth can be applied.  Today we will begin to concentrate on readiness for what will follow
W1:143.1 [125] In quiet I receive God's Word  today.
W1:151.13 We practice wordlessly  today, except at the beginning of the time you spend with God. We
W1:152.8 Let us  today be truly humble and accept what we have made as what it is. The
W1:152.9  Today we practice true humility, abandoning the false pretense by
W1:153.8 We will not play such childish games  today. For our true purpose is to save the world, and we would not
W1:153.9 We look past dreams  today and recognize that we need no defense because we are created
W1:153.15  Today we practice in a form we will maintain for quite a while. We
W1:153.19  Today our theme is our defenselessness. We clothe ourselves in it as
W1:154.1 Let us  today be neither arrogant nor falsely humble. We have gone beyond
W1:154.10 It is this joining that we undertake to recognize  today. We will not seek to keep our minds apart from Him Who speaks
W1:154.12 Let us but learn this lesson for  today: we will not recognize what we receive until we give it. You
W1:154.13 Our lesson for  today is stated thus:
W1:154.15  realize these holy words are true. They are the message sent to us  today from our Creator. Now we demonstrate how they have changed our
W1:155.3 This is the simple choice we make  today. The mad illusion will remain awhile in evidence for those to
W1:155.14  His own, which are the same, we practice gladly with this thought  today:
W1:156.8  a day, till certainty has ended doubting and established peace.  Today let doubting cease. God speaks for you in answering your
W1:157.1  awareness. You have spent long days and nights in celebrating death.  Today you learn to feel the joy of life.
W1:157.3  Today it will be given you to feel a touch of Heaven, though you will
W1:157.4 He will direct your practicing  today, for what you ask for now is what He wills. And having joined
W1:157.5  and everyone you think of, or who thinks of you. For your experience  today will so transform your mind that it becomes the touchstone for
W1:157.6 Your body will be sanctified  today, its only purpose being now to bring the vision of what you
W1:157.8  have no need of it. Yet now it has a purpose and will serve it well.  Today we will embark upon a course you have not dreamed of. But the
W1:157.8  given you has dreamed for you this journey which you make and start  today with the experience this day holds out to you to be your own.
W1:158.2  All this cannot be learned. What, then, are you to learn to give  today? Our lesson yesterday evoked a theme found early in the text.
W1:158.8  not merely disappear when this has been perceived. And this you give  today—see no one as a body. Greet him as the Son of God he is,
W1:158.10  your sins have been forgiven by yourself. Each brother whom you meet  today provides another chance to let Christ's vision shine on you and
W1:158.11  with its immortal love. We practice seeing with the eyes of Christ  today. And by the holy gifts we give, Christ's vision looks upon
W1:160.9  Today we offer thanks that Christ has come to search the world for
W1:161.1  Today we practice differently and take a stand against our anger,
W1:161.11  Today we practice in a form we have attempted earlier. Your readiness
W1:161.11  attempted earlier. Your readiness is closer now, and you will come  today nearer Christ's vision. If you are intent on reaching it, you
W1:161.11  Christ's vision. If you are intent on reaching it, you will succeed  today. And once you have succeeded, you will not be willing to accept
W1:162.4  Today we practice simply. For the words we use are mighty, and they
W1:162.5 We honor you  today. Yours is the right to perfect holiness you now accept. With
W1:162.6  words dispel the night, and darkness is no more. The light is come  today to bless the world, for you have recognized the Son of God, and
W1:163.8  they would be instantly released. And you will show them this  today. There is no death, and we renounce it now in every form for
W1:163.8  form it takes must therefore be illusion. This the stand we take  today. And it is given us to look past death and see the life beyond.
W1:163.9 Our Father, bless our eyes  today. We are Your messengers, and we would look upon the glorious
W1:164.1  truth be recognized? The present is the only time there is. And so  today, this instant, now, we come to look upon what is forever there
W1:164.3 How holy is your practicing  today, as Christ gives you His sight and hears for you and answers in
W1:164.3  which come from nearer than the world are clear to you who will  today accept the gifts He gives.
W1:164.4  of holiness in you the thought of sin has never touched. All this  today you will remember. Faithfulness in practicing today will bring
W1:164.4  All this today you will remember. Faithfulness in practicing  today will bring rewards so great and so completely different from
W1:164.7 We will not judge  today. We will receive but what is given us from judgment made beyond
W1:164.7  what is given us from judgment made beyond the world. Our practicing  today becomes our gift of thankfulness for our release from blindness
W1:164.9  worthy to be sought above the world's unsatisfying goals? Let not  today slip by without the gifts it holds for you receiving your
W1:165.4 Deny not Heaven. It is yours  today but for the asking. Nor need you perceive how great the gift,
W1:165.7 Practice  today in hope. For hope indeed is justified. Your doubts are
W1:167.10 Let us  today be children of the truth and not deny our holy heritage. Our
W1:167.10  an opposite to what he is? We will not ask for death in any form  today. Nor will we let imagined opposites to life abide even an
W1:167.11 His holy home we strive to keep  today, as He established it and wills it be forever and forever. He
W1:167.11  it and wills it be forever and forever. He is Lord of what we think  today. And in His thoughts, which have no opposite, we understand
W1:168.3  Today we ask of God the gift He has most carefully preserved within
W1:168.5 It is a new and holy day  today, for we receive what has been given us. Our faith lies in the
W1:168.6  receive. Such is His Will because He loves His Son. To Him we pray  today, returning but the words He gave to us through His Own Voice,
W1:169.14 Our learning goal  today does not exceed this prayer, yet in the world, what could be
W1:170.2  it grow and swell and rage. And thus is fear protected, not escaped.  Today we learn a lesson which can save you more delay and needless
W1:170.8  Today we look upon this cruel god dispassionately. And we note that
W1:170.12 The choice you make  today is certain. For you look for the last time upon this bit of
W1:174.3 [158]  Today I learn to give as I receive. God is but Love, and therefore
W1:181.3 Therefore in practicing  today, we first let all such little focuses give way to our great
W1:181.10  We seek for this remembrance as we turn our minds to practicing  today. We look neither ahead nor backwards. We look straight into the
W1:182.3 We speak  today for everyone who walks this world, for he is not at home. He
W1:182.9 Rest with Him frequently  today. For He was willing to become a little child that you might
W1:182.10  is protected by defenselessness. Go home with Him from time to time  today. You are as much an alien here as He.
W1:182.11 Take time  today to lay aside your shield which profits nothing and lay down the
W1:182.12  be denied. The holy Child remains with you. His home is yours.  Today He gives you His defenselessness, and you accept it in exchange
W1:183.6  altar which reaches to God Himself and to His Son. Practice but this  today; repeat God's Name slowly again and still again. Become
W1:183.10  Today you can achieve a state in which you will experience the gifts
W1:183.10  the world forgot and offer it your own remembering. You can accept  today the part you play in its salvation and your own as well, and
W1:183.12  peace eternal. In our Father's Name, we would experience this peace  today. And in His Name it shall be given us.
W1:185.7 Let us  today devote our practicing to recognizing that we really mean the
W1:185.8  Today devote your practice periods to careful searching of your mind
W1:185.14 It is this one intent we seek  today, uniting our desires with the need of every heart, the call of
W1:185.14  as God created it. With help like this beside us, can we fail  today as we request the peace of God be given us?
W1:186.3  humility request but this? And what could arrogance deny but this?  Today we will not shrink from our assignment on the specious grounds
W1:186.4 All false humility we lay aside  today that we may listen to God's Voice reveal to us what He would
W1:188.8 We practice coming nearer to the light in us  today. We take our wandering thoughts and gently bring them back to
W1:189.6  Today we pass illusions as we seek to reach to what is true in us and
W1:189.6  Its sight which is the gift Its Love bestows on us. We learn the way  today. It is as sure as Love Itself, to Which it carries us. For its
W1:189.9 And so  today we do not choose the way in which we go to Him. But we do
W1:191.7 Be glad  today how very easily is hell undone. You need but tell yourself:
W1:191.12  And we will sleep no more and dream of death. Then join with me  today. Your glory is the light that saves the world. Do not withhold
W1:192.10 Be merciful  today. The Son of God deserves your mercy. It is he who asks that you
W1:193.14 We will attempt  today to overcome a thousand seeming obstacles to peace in just one
W1:193.14  another minute, or another instant. Time was made for this. Use it  today for what its purpose is. Morning and night, devote what time
W1:193.16 Each hour spend a little time  today, and in the days to come, in practicing the lesson in
W1:194.6 If you can see the lesson for  today as the deliverance it really is, you will not hesitate to give
W1:195.9  Today we learn to think of gratitude in place of anger, malice, and
W1:196.2  in its sure protection, can be found in the idea we practice for  today. It may in fact appear to be a sign that punishment can never
W1:196.4  from bondage to the state of perfect freedom. Let us take this step  today that we may quickly go the way salvation shows us, taking every
W1:196.8 Our next steps will be easy if you take this one  today. From there we go ahead quite rapidly. For once you understand
W1:196.9 Salvation's song can certainly be heard in the idea we practice for  today. If it can but be you you crucify, you did not hurt the world
W1:196.11  Him Father and yourself His Son. Pray that the instant may be soon— today. Step back from fear and make advance to love.
W1:198.9  Today we practice letting freedom come to make its home with you. The
W1:198.11 Do not forget  today that there can be no form of suffering that fails to hide an
W1:198.12  is the gift the Holy Spirit holds for you from God your Father. Let  today be celebrated both on earth and in your holy home as well. Be
W1:198.15  Today we come still nearer to the end of everything that yet would
W1:198.15  For He 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
W1:198.15  it time for your deliverance. The time has come. The time has come  today.
W1:199.5 Cherish today's idea, and practice it  today and every day. Make it a part of every practice period you
W1:199.7 Be free  today, and carry freedom as your gift to those who still believe they
W1:199.8  this? Then practice well the thought the Holy Spirit gives you for  today. Your brothers stand released with you in it; the world is
W1:200.9 Let us not lose our way again  today. We go to Heaven, and the path is straight. Only if we attempt
W1:200.11  Today we seek no idols. Peace cannot be found in them. The peace of
W1:200.11  God is ours, and only this will we accept and want. Peace be to us  today. For we have found a simple, happy way to leave the world of
W1:218.1  through my sightless eyes I cannot see the vision of my glory. Yet  today I can behold this glory and be glad. I am not a body. I am
W2:221.1 Father, I come to You  today to seek the peace that You alone can give. I come in silence.
W2:221.1  of my mind, I wait and listen for Your Voice. My Father, speak to me  today. I come to hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and
W2:222.1  shines on Him. How still is he who knows the truth of what He speaks  today!
W2:223.2  longer. We are lonely here and long for Heaven where we are at home.  Today we would return. Our Name is Yours, and we acknowledge that we
W2:227.1 Father, it is  today that I am free because my will is Yours. I thought to make
W2:227.2 And so  today we find our glad return to Heaven, which we never really left.
W2:228.2  part of You. And my mistakes about myself are dreams. I let them go  today. And I stand ready to receive Your Word alone for what I really
W2:232.1  my mind, my Father, when I wake and shine on me throughout the day  today. Let every minute be a time in which I dwell with You. And let
W2:232.2 This is as every day should be.  Today practice the end of fear. Have faith in Him Who is your Father.
W2:233.1 Father, I give You all my thoughts  today. I would have none of mine. In place of them, give me Your own.
W2:233.1  goals which cannot be obtained and wasting time in vain imaginings.  Today I come to You. I will step back and merely follow You. Be You
W2:233.2  Today we have one Guide to lead us on. And as we walk together, we
W2:234.1  Today we will anticipate the time when dreams of sin and guilt are
W2:234.1  peace of God the Father and the Son. This we accept as wholly true  today.
W2:236.1  to serve whatever purpose I perceive in it. My mind can only serve.  Today I give its service to the Holy Spirit to employ as He sees fit.
W2:236.2 Father, my mind is open to Your thoughts and closed  today to every thought but Yours. I rule my mind and offer it to You.
W2:237.1  Today I will accept the truth about myself. I will arise in glory and
W2:237.2 Christ is my eyes  today, and His the ears which listen to the Voice of God today.
W2:237.2  is my eyes today, and His the ears which listen to the Voice of God  today. Father, I come to You through Him Who is Your Son and my true
W2:238.2 And so again  today we pause to think how much our Father loves us. And how dear
W2:239.1 Let not the truth about ourselves  today be hidden by a false humility. Let us instead be thankful for
W2:240.1  but to your own illusions of yourself. Let us not be deceived  today. We are the Son of God. There is no fear in us, for we are each
W2:240.2  are our fears! Would You allow Your Son to suffer? Give us faith  today to recognize Your Son and set him free. Let us forgive him in
W2:241.1 What joy there is  today! It is a time of special celebration. For today holds out the
W2:241.1 What joy there is today! It is a time of special celebration. For  today holds out the instant to the darkened world where its release
W2:241.1  sorrows pass away and pain is gone. The glory of salvation dawns  today upon a world set free. This is the time of hope for countless
W2:241.1  be united now as you forgive them all. For I will be forgiven by you  today.
W2:242.1 I will not lead my life alone  today. I do not understand the world. And so to try to lead my life
W2:242.2 And so we give  today to You. We come with wholly open minds. We do not ask for
W2:243.1 I will be honest with myself  today. I will not think that I already know what must remain beyond
W2:243.1  the whole from bits of my perception, which are all that I can see.  Today I recognize that this is so. And so I am relieved of judgment
W2:243.2 Father,  today I leave creation free to be itself. I honor all its parts, in
W2:247.2 So would I look on everyone  today. My brothers are Your Sons. Your Fatherhood created them and
W2:247.2  them and gave them all to me as part of You and my own Self as well.  Today I honor You through them, and thus I hope this day to recognize
W2:250.1 Let me behold the Son of God  today and witness to his glory. Let me not try to obscure the holy
W2:250.2 He is Your Son, my Father. And  today I would behold his gentleness instead of my illusions. He is
W2:250.2  of my illusions. He is what I am, and as I see him, so I see myself.  Today I would see truly that this day I may at last identify with
W2:WIS.5  children's toys? How soon will you be ready to come home? Perhaps  today? There is no sin. Creation is unchanged. Would you still hold
W2:254.1 Father,  today I would but hear Your Voice. In deepest silence, I would come
W2:254.2  Today we let no ego thoughts direct our words or actions. When such
W2:255.1 It does not seem to me that I can choose to have but peace  today. And yet my God assures me that His Son is like Himself. Let me
W2:255.1  in Him Who says I am God's Son. And let the peace I choose be mine  today bear witness to the truth of what He says. God's Son can have
W2:255.1  and must remain forever in the peace of Heaven. In his name I give  today to finding what my Father wills for me, accepting it as mine
W2:256.1  whom all sin remains impossible, and it is this we choose to dream  today. God is our goal; forgiveness is the means by which our minds
W2:257.1  depression. Let us therefore be determined to remember what we want  today that we may unify our thoughts and actions meaningfully and
W2:257.1  and actions meaningfully and achieve only what God would have us do  today.
W2:257.2  our salvation. Let us not forget that we can have no will but Yours  today. And thus our purpose must be Yours as well if we would reach
W2:259.2 Father, I would not be insane  today. I would not be afraid of love nor seek for refuge in its
W2:260.1  remaining part of What created me. Your Son, my Father, calls on You  today. Let me remember You created me. Let me remember my Identity.
W2:261.1  within the citadel where I am safe and cannot be attacked. Let me  today seek not security in danger, nor attempt to find my peace in
W2:261.2 Let me not seek for idols. I would come, my Father, home to You  today. I choose to be as You created me and find the Son whom You
W2:262.1 Father, You have one Son. And it is he that I would look upon  today. He is Your one creation. Why should I perceive a thousand
W2:264.1  Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We come to You in Your own Name  today, to be at peace within Your everlasting Love.
W2:264.2 My brothers, join with me in this  today. This is salvation's prayer. Must we not join in what will save
W2:265.1  that what I feared was in the world instead of in my mind alone.  Today I see the world in the celestial gentleness with which creation
W2:268.1 Let me not be Your critic, Lord,  today, and judge against You. Let me not attempt to interfere with
W2:268.2 Let not our sight be blasphemous  today nor let our ears attend to lying tongues. Only reality is free
W2:268.2  of loss. Only reality is wholly safe. And it is only this we seek  today.
W2:269.1 I ask Your blessing on my sight  today. It is the means which You have chosen to become the way to
W2:269.1  to truth. I ask for the illusion which transcends all those I made.  Today I choose to see a world forgiven in which everyone shows me the
W2:269.2  Today our sight is blessed indeed. We share one vision as we look
W2:270.2 The quiet of  today will bless our hearts, and through them peace will come to
W2:270.2  and through them peace will come to everyone. Christ is our eyes  today. And through His sight, we offer healing to the world through
W2:271.1  I want to hear, the witnesses to what I want to be the truth for me.  Today I choose to look upon what Christ would have me see, to listen
W2:271.2  to be restored to me. And this I choose to be what I would look upon  today.
W2:272.2  Today we pass illusions by. And if we hear temptation call to us to
W2:274.1 Father,  today I would let all things be as You created them and give Your Son
W2:274.2 A special blessing comes to us  today from Him Who is our Father. Give this day to Him and there will
W2:274.2  Who is our Father. Give this day to Him and there will be no fear  today because the day is given unto Love.
W2:275.1 Let us  today attend the Voice of God, Which speaks an ancient lesson, no
W2:275.1  the Voice of God, Which speaks an ancient lesson, no more true  today than any other day. Yet has this day been chosen as the time
W2:275.2 Your healing Voice protects all things  today, and so I leave all things to You. I need be anxious over
W2:278.2  and my creation and have brought a dream of fear into my mind.  Today I would not dream. I choose the way to You instead of madness
W2:279.2 I will accept Your promises  today and give my faith to them. My Father loves the Son Whom He
W2:281.2 I will not hurt myself  today. For I am far beyond all pain. My Father placed me safe in
W2:282.1 If I could realize but this  today, salvation would be reached for all the world. This the
W2:282.2  The name of fear is simply a mistake. Let me not be afraid of truth  today.
W2:284.1  to change all thoughts that hurt. And I would go beyond these words  today, go past all reservations, and arrive at full acceptance of the
W2:284.2  grief and pain must be impossible. Let me not fail to trust in You  today, accepting but the joyous as Your gifts, accepting but the
W2:285.1  Today I wake with joy, expecting but the happy things of God to come
W2:285.1  and how would grief and loss avail me, if insanity departs from me  today and I accept my holiness instead?
W2:286.1 Father, how still  today! How quietly do all things fall in place! This is the day that
W2:286.2 The stillness of  today will give us hope that we have found the way and traveled far
W2:286.2  found the way and traveled far along it to a wholly certain goal.  Today we will not doubt the end which God Himself has promised us. We
W2:288.2 Forgive me, then,  today. And you will know you have forgiven me if you behold your
W2:290.2 With this resolve, I come to You and ask Your strength to hold me up  today while I but seek to do Your Will. You cannot fail to hear me,
W2:290.2  You already given me, and I am sure that I will see my happiness  today.
W2:291.1 Christ's vision looks through me  today. His sight shows me all things forgiven and at peace and offers
W2:291.1  for myself and for the world as well. What loveliness we look upon  today! What holiness we see surrounding us! And it is given us to
W2:293.2 Father, let not Your holy world escape my sight  today. Nor let my ears be deaf to all the hymns of gratitude the
W2:293.2  all past mistakes. And I would see only this world before my eyes  today.
W2:294.1  unneeded and cast off. Let me not see it more than this  today—of service for a while and fit to serve, to keep its
W2:295.1 Christ asks that He may use my eyes  today and thus redeem the world. He asks this gift that He may offer
W2:295.2  one I give that it be given me. Help me to use the eyes of Christ  today and thus allow the Holy Spirit's love to bless all things that
W2:296.1 The Holy Spirit needs my voice  today, that all the world may listen to Your Voice and hear Your Word
W2:296.1  I may find escape and hear the Word Your holy Voice will speak to me  today.
W2:296.2 We teach  today what we would learn and that alone. And so our learning goal
W2:298.2 Father, I come to You  today, because I would not follow any way but Yours. You are beside
W2:300.1  And it is this serenity we seek, unclouded, obvious, and sure  today.
W2:300.2 We seek Your holy world  today. For we, Your loving Sons, have lost our way a while. But we
W2:300.2  to be restored to Heaven and our true Identity. And we give thanks  today the world endures but for an instant. We would go beyond that
W2:301.1  I judge it not. And therefore is it only what You will. Let me  today behold it uncondemned through happy eyes forgiveness has
W2:301.1  for their source is gone. Father, I will not judge Your world  today.
W2:301.2  the world we saw was false, and we will look upon God's world  today.
W2:302.1  must disappear when love has come. Let me forgive Your holy world  today that I may look upon its holiness and understand it but
W2:303.1 Watch with me, angels; watch with me  today. Let all God's holy thoughts surround me and be still with me
W2:303.1  Let Him no longer be a stranger here, for He is born again in me  today.
W2:305.2  Christ is given us because it is Your will that we be saved. Help us  today but to accept Your gift and judge it not. For it has come to us
W2:306.1 What but Christ's vision would I use  today when it can offer me a day in which I see a world so like to
W2:306.1  see a world so like to Heaven that an ancient memory returns to me?  Today I can forget the world I made. Today I can go past all fear and
W2:306.1  ancient memory returns to me? Today I can forget the world I made.  Today I can go past all fear and be restored to love and holiness and
W2:306.1  can go past all fear and be restored to love and holiness and peace.  Today I am redeemed and born anew into a world of mercy and of care;
W2:309.2 The step I take  today, my Father, is my sure release from idle dreams of sin. Your
W2:310.1  Your grace has come to me and that it is Your will that I be free  today.
W2:310.2  are restored to peace and holiness. There is no room in us for fear  today, for we have welcomed love into our hearts.
W2:311.1  cannot see totality and therefore judges falsely. Let us not use it  today but make a gift of it to Him Who has a different use for it. He
W2:311.2 Father, we wait with open mind  today to hear Your Judgment of the Son You love. We do not know him,
W2:312.2 I have no purpose for  today except to look upon a liberated world, set free from all the
W2:312.2  from all the judgments I have made. Father, this is Your will for me  today, and therefore it must be my goal as well.
W2:313.2 Let us  today behold each other in the sight of Christ. How beautiful we are!
W2:313.2  we are! How holy and how loving! Brother, come and join with me  today. We save the world when we are joined. For in our vision it
W2:315.2 I thank You, Father, for the many gifts that come to me  today and every day from every Son of God. My brothers are unlimited
W2:316.2 Father, I would accept Your gifts  today. I do not recognize them. Yet I trust that You Who gave them
W2:317.2 Father, Your way is what I choose  today. Where it would lead me, do I choose to go; what it would have
W2:318.2 Let me  today, my Father, take the role You offer me in Your request that I
W2:321.2  Today we answer for the world, which will be freed along with us. How
W2:326.2 Let us  today behold earth disappear, at first transformed, and then,
W2:329.2  Today we will accept our union with each other and our Source. We
W2:330.1  God created cannot sin and therefore cannot suffer. Let us choose  today that He be our Identity and thus escape forever from all things
W2:330.2  to know our one Identity we share with You. We would return to It  today, to be made free forever from all our mistakes and to be saved
W2:331.2  that we share it. Let us look upon the holy sights forgiveness shows  today that we may find the peace of God. Amen.
W2:332.2 We would not bind the world again  today. Fear holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has given us the
W2:334.1  rest on false perception. Let me not accept such meager gifts again  today. God's Voice is offering the peace of God to all who hear and
W2:334.1  of God to all who hear and choose to follow Him. This is my choice  today. And so I go to find the treasures God has given me.
W2:334.2  and frightened heart, to give him certainty and bring him peace?  Today I would behold my brother sinless. This Your Will for me, for
W2:339.1  for what will frighten him and bring him suffering. Let us resolve  today to ask for what we really want, and only this, that we may
W2:340.1 Father, I thank You for  today and for the freedom I am certain it will bring. This day is
W2:340.1  for the freedom I am certain it will bring. This day is holy, for  today Your Son will be redeemed. His suffering is done. For he will

W2:340.1  holy Son and for the world he made, which is released along with him  today.
W2:340.2 Be glad  today! Be glad! There is no room for anything but joy and thanks
W2:340.2  today! Be glad! There is no room for anything but joy and thanks  today. Our Father has redeemed His Son this day! Not one of us but
W2:340.2  has redeemed His Son this day! Not one of us but will be saved  today. Not one who will remain in fear, and none the Father will not

W2:346.1 Father, I wake  today with miracles correcting my perception of all things. And so
W2:346.1  share with You as I will share eternity, for time has stepped aside  today. I do not seek the things of time, and so I will not look upon
W2:346.1  the things of time, and so I will not look upon them. What I seek  today transcends all laws of time and things perceived in time. I

W2:347.2 Listen  today. Be very still and hear the gentle Voice for God assuring you
W2:352.1  leads me to it. Father, I would hear Your Voice and find Your peace  today. For I would love my own Identity and find in Him the memory of
W2:353.1 Father, I give all that is mine  today to Christ to use in any way that best will serve the purpose
W2:357.1  to hear Your Word and give as I receive. And as I look upon Your Son  today, I hear Your Voice instructing me to find the way to You as You

W1:35.1  Today's idea does not describe the way you see yourself now. It does,
W1:35.3  in truth. We will use a somewhat different kind of application for  today's idea because the emphasis for today is on the perceiver
W1:35.4  of the three five-minute practice periods today, begin by repeating  today's idea to yourself and then close your eyes and search your
W1:35.8  to your reactions to that situation, and use them in applying  today's idea. After you have named each one, add:

W1:38.3 In  today's exercises, we will apply the power of your holiness to all
W1:38.8  the theme “There is nothing my holiness cannot do.” The purpose of  today's exercises is to begin to instill in you a sense that you have
W1:39.3  not have. A savior must be saved. How else can he teach salvation?  Today's exercises will apply to you alone, recognizing that your

W1:41.6 From time to time, you may repeat  today's idea if you find it helpful. But most of all, try to sink
W1:41.8 Throughout the day, use  today's idea often, repeating it very slowly and preferably with eyes
W1:42.4  think of nothing except thoughts which occur to you in relation to  today's idea. You might think, for example:
W1:42.8  that active searching for relevant thoughts is not appropriate for  today's exercises. Try merely to step back and let the thoughts come.
W1:43.8  and longer phase of the exercise period, close your eyes, repeat  today's idea again, and then let whatever relevant thoughts occur to
W1:43.10 Or any thought related more or less directly to  today's idea is suitable. The thoughts need not bear an obvious

W1:52.1  Today's review covers these ideas:
W1:55.1  Today's review includes the following:
W1:60.1 These ideas are for  today's review:
W1:61.2 To the ego,  today's idea is the epitome of self-glorification. But the ego does
W1:61.3 True humility requires that you accept  today's idea because it is God's Voice Which tells you it is true.
W1:61.9  Today's idea goes far beyond the ego's petty views of what you are
W1:62.4 Let us be glad to begin and end this day by practicing  today's idea and to use it as frequently as possible throughout the
W1:63.5  for such an opportunity. No chance should be lost for reinforcing  today's idea.
W1:64.1  Today's idea is merely another way of saying, “Let me not wander into

W1:66.13  Today's idea is another giant stride in the perception of the same as
W1:67.1  Today's idea is a complete and accurate statement of what you are.
W1:68.6 Begin  today's extended practice period by searching your mind for those
W1:68.11 The short practice periods should include a quick application of  today's idea in this form, whenever any thought of grievance arises
W1:69.9  will want to do as often as possible in view of the importance of  today's idea to you and your happiness, remind yourself that your
W1:70.2 The seeming “cost” of accepting  today's idea is this: it means that nothing outside yourself can save
W1:70.3  Today's idea places you in charge of the universe, where you belong
W1:71.9 Begin the two longer practice periods for today by thinking about  today's idea, and realizing that it contains two parts, each making
W1:71.13  to hold grievances today, and respond to them with this form of  today's idea:
W1:73.17  several times an hour. It is most important, however, to apply  today's idea in this form immediately you are tempted to hold a
W1:74.2 There is great peace in  today's idea. And the exercises for today are directed towards
W1:76.12  joys of Heaven which His laws keep limitless forever. We will repeat  today's idea until we have listened and understood there are no laws
W1:81.3 Some specific forms for applying  today's idea when specific difficulties seem to arise might be:
W1:84.1 These are the ideas for  today's review:
W1:85.1  Today's review will cover these ideas:
W1:91.14  miracles are seen in light. Also, be sure to meet temptation with  today's idea. This form would be helpful for this special purpose:
W1:95.1  Today's idea accurately describes you as God created you. You are one
W1:95.20 Throughout the day do not forget your goal. Repeat  today's idea as frequently as possible and understand each time you
W1:95.20  with you. To everyone you meet today be sure to give the promise of  today's idea and tell him this:
W1:97.1  Today's idea identifies you with your One Self. It accepts no split
W1:98.7  of but five minutes. He will give the words you use in practicing  today's idea the deep conviction and the certainty you lack. His
W1:98.7  you lack. His words will join with yours and make each repetition of  today's idea a total dedication, made in faith as perfect and as sure
W1:98.12  for the next five minutes you will spend again with Him. Repeat  today's idea while you wait for the glad time to come to you again.
W1:100.8 Begin the exercises with the thought  today's idea contains. Then realize your part is to be happy. Only
W1:101.6  this thought as often as we can today because it is the basis for  today's idea. God's Will for you is perfect happiness because there
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 faster
W1:104.1  Today's idea continues with the thought that joy and peace are not
W1:108.1 Vision depends upon  today's idea. The light is in it, for it reconciles all seeming
W1:110.1 We will repeat  today's idea from time to time. For this one thought would be enough
W1:110.2  has no meaning, evil is not real, and misery and death do not exist.  Today's idea is therefore all you need to let complete correction
W1:110.5 The healing power of  today's idea is limitless. It is the birthplace of all miracles, the
W1:110.5  great restorer of the truth to the awareness of the world. Practice  today's idea with gratitude. This is the truth that comes to set you
W1:126.1  Today's idea, completely alien to the ego and the thinking of the
W1:126.9 Give 15 minutes twice today to the attempt to understand  today's idea. It is the thought by which forgiveness takes its proper
W1:126.10  place where thoughts are changed and false beliefs laid by. Repeat  today's idea, and ask for help in understanding what it really means.
W1:132.9  Today's idea is true because the world does not exist. And if it is
W1:132.10  must now be stressed again, for it contains the firm foundation for  today's idea. You are as God created you. There is no place where you
W1:137.1  Today's idea remains the central thought on which salvation rests.
W1:156.1  Today's idea but states the simple truth that makes the thought of

W1:161.16  Today's idea is your safe escape from anger and from fear. Be sure
W1:183.7  on this. No other words we use except at the beginning, when we say  today's idea but once. And then God's Name becomes our only thought,
W1:186.3  Today's idea may seem quite sobering until you see its meaning. All
W1:191.5 But let  today's idea find a place among your thoughts, and you have risen far
W1:194.1  Today's idea takes another step toward quick salvation, and a giant
W1:194.2 Accept  today's idea, and you have passed all anxiety, all pits of hell, all
W1:194.2  thoughts of sin, and devastation brought about by guilt. Accept  today's idea, and you have released the world from all imprisonment
W1:196.3  not believe you are a body to be crucified. And you will see within  today's idea the light of resurrection, looking past all thoughts of

Tx:16.25  you tried to take away. He protected both your creations and you  together, keeping one with you what you would exclude. And they will

Tx:17.42  of relationship and know it to be true. Let us ascend in peace  together to the Father by giving Him ascendance in our minds. We

Tx:17.59  has already happened. Then you look back at it and try to piece  together what it must have meant. And you will be wrong. Not only
Tx:18.9  about each other can abide. Here you are joined in God, as much  together as you are with Him. The original error has not entered
Tx:18.10  and as one. And as He loves you, so you are. You are not joined  together in illusions but in the Thought so holy and so perfect that
Tx:18.10  illusions cannot remain to darken the holy place in which you stand  together. God is with you, my brothers. Let us join in Him in peace
Tx:18.11  relationship with truth. God and His whole creation have entered it  together. How lovely and how holy is your relationship, with the

Tx:18.28 Each instant that we spend  together will teach you that this goal is possible and will

Tx:19.108  Together we will disappear into the Presence beyond the veil, not to

Tx:20.12  the Son of God was never crucified. Let us lift up our eyes  together, not in fear, but faith. And there will be no fear in us,

Tx:20.52  the illusion of reality. And so it seemed to have a home that held  together for a little while in time and vanished. For what could
Tx:20.54  way to true relationships held gently open, through which you walk  together, leaving the body thankfully behind and resting in the
Tx:21.28  truth is you were both created by a loving Father Who created you  together and as one. See what “proves” otherwise, and you deny your
Tx:21.54  true effect of this same Source as is the answer, must therefore be  together and the same.
Tx:21.72  not their enemy, except they hate him. In hatred they have come  together but have not joined each other. For had they done so, hatred

Tx:22.1  and need no longer look on sin apart. No two can look on sin  together, for they could never see it in the same place and time. Sin
Tx:22.2  where each one thinks the other has what he has not. They come  together, each to complete himself and rob the other. They stay until
Tx:22.15  What is as like Him as a holy relationship? And what draws you  together draws Him to you. Here are His sweetness and His gentle
Tx:22.40  between you and the face of Christ. Let it be lifted! Raise it  together, for it is but a veil that stands between you. Either alone
Tx:22.41  will each of you look to the other! How happy you will be to be  together after such a long and lonely journey where you walked alone.
Tx:22.43  which seemed to rise and block their way before. This veil you lift  together opens the way to truth to more than you. Those who would let

Tx:24.41  and wove a picture out of nothing. For the parts do not belong  together, and the whole contributes nothing to the parts to give them
Tx:25.10  And so What is within this mind and does unite all things  together must be its Teacher. Yet must It use the language which this
Tx:25.22  purpose, since He gave the same to both of you. His Will is brought  together as you join in will that you be made complete by offering
Tx:25.40  him. Alone does neither have it. So must it remain useless to both.  Together, it will give to each an equal strength to save the other
Tx:26.19  from time. Here is the meeting-place where thoughts are brought  together—where conflicting values meet and all illusions are laid
Tx:26.20  because knowledge makes no attack upon perception. They are brought  together, and only one continues past the gate where Oneness is.

D:2.23  new and denial of the old is the necessary forerunner of our work  together in establishing the Covenant of the New?
D:3.1 The Covenant of the New is simply our agreement to proceed  together on the palm-strewn path of Christ-consciousness. It is a

D:3.7 Our first action in understanding what we are called  together to do is to begin to declassify all the various aspects of
D:4.13 The two patterns, the internal and the external, were created  together to exist in a complementary fashion. Both of these divine
D:4.13  creative time we are now entering. Thus far, we are merely working  together to create a pattern of acceptance to replace the pattern of
D:5.19  this starting point only can we move forward to the future we create  together.
D:5.21  what is is complete, we will go on to these questions of the new and  together we will find the answers.

D:9.10  we established what lies beyond learning. Now, as we embrace the new  together, it must be realized again and yet again, that the new
D:11.13  We are the sacred heart. As was said as we began this Dialogue, we,  together, are the well of spirit. We, together, are the shared
D:11.13  as we began this Dialogue, we, together, are the well of spirit. We,  together, are the shared consciousness of unity. In our union we bear
D:13.11 We come now to the second part of what we are exploring  together here, the idea that what you come to know may literally not
D:15.8  More movement. Only when movement, being, and expression came  together, however, was there light. Light might be seen, in this
D:15.9  understood, an example of the way in which these principles work  together. What I have left out of this story, the formless wasteland,
D:16.1  are. This is the stage in which movement, being, and expression come  together into the recreation of wholeness that will be expressed in
D:17.26 We will spend forty days and forty nights here  together, at the top of the mountain, fasting from want, becoming
D:Day1.3 We are here on the top of the mountain  together, beginning our work together. I am no longer your teacher,
D:Day1.3 We are here on the top of the mountain together, beginning our work  together. I am no longer your teacher, but there is a reason that you
D:Day1.25  but as with any true inheritance only in a series, only in a joining  together of all of the parts of the creation story into the wholeness
D:Day1.29  brought to completion and wholeness in you and in me, so that  together we bring about the second coming of Christ and the elevation
D:Day2.3  Your life is being seen more as a whole now. The parts are fitting  together. You can see how you have moved from seeming purposelessness
D:Day2.4  envisioned. This is the moment of fulfillment and desire coming  together, the time in which to realize “it was all worth it.”
D:Day2.17  This idea would hardly be a joyful idea with which to begin our work  together.
D:Day4.1  stage of our dialogue. We can argue here before we go on. We face  together here the temptations of these arguments, these temptations
D:Day4.34  on top of the mountain. What is this all about? Why have we gathered  together here? It is said that during my forty days and forty nights
D:Day4.34  and the new. You realize that this is the purpose of our time  together here even though you have not put this purpose into words
D:Day4.38  of the idea of the new world that can be, all of these must come  together and be victors over the reign of fear.
D:Day4.39  of the truth of who you really are, then our purpose of being  together here on this mountain top will go unfulfilled.
D:Day4.56  it to. It does not come at the end but at the beginning of our time  together for a reason. This is simply because this choice is the
D:Day4.59  still to be had. We are only at the beginning of our time  together.
D:Day6.2 While you know this is the focus of our time  together, few, if any of you, feel as if you have truly taken leave
D:Day6.4  of becoming as the time of movement, being, and expression coming  together. We have further spoken of your point of access to unity as
D:Day6.27 As your belief grows in our ability to accomplish  together our given task, you are almost surely feeling this devotion
D:Day6.28  where it belongs—here—in the passionate acceptance of our work  together. And so the lack of desire you are experiencing for other
D:Day6.30  this. This is the point of movement, being, and expression coming  together. The point of convergence, intersection, and pass-through.
D:Day8.17  has been a reason for this discussion coming so late in our time  together. To accept the feelings of the self of illusion would have
D:Day9.1  from lack, freedom from repression, are what we will now enjoy  together on our mountain top retreat. We have not removed ourselves
D:Day9.5  from this confidence in the self of form and they must be realized  together for the elevation of the self of form to take place. What
D:Day9.20  ideal state, we will not succeed in the work we are doing here  together. For if you believe this, you will not accept your Self as
D:Day10.2  and the Self of union and to, through this reliance, tie the two  together so that there is no seam, no boundary, no remaining
D:Day10.22  This is the culmination point of these two great objectives coming  together in you and your brothers and sisters.
D:Day15.2  in order for you to come to know it. The unknown and the known exist  together in everything and everyone. Thus your willingness to be made
D:Day15.12  it mean to practice informing and being informed? It means to join  together with others who have the ability to maintain
D:Day15.12  Christ-consciousness in your company. This creates the joining  together of spacious Selves. It is a joining without boundaries. You
D:Day15.19 You thus are not to come  together as the known but as the unknown. You dialogue about the
D:Day15.20  current of the energy, or clear pools of the spacious selves, coming  together. This current washes some stones clean and washes others
D:Day18.2  from her child. The ways are rather complementary and symbiotic.  Together they return wholeness and will bring about the completion of
D:Day18.2  about the completion of the time of Christ. This symbiotic working  together will be essential for the birth of the new and in truth
D:Day19.8  to each, we speak of expressions of this one ultimate function.  Together, the way of Mary and the way of Jesus demonstrate the truth
D:Day21.10 Realize that this is the aim of our final time  together. Concentrate on making the first transition and on the
D:Day23.4  clouds of illusion, even those that have gently surrounded our time  together on the mountain top must now be surrendered, much as a woman
D:Day27.2  on two levels. This has been a goal of the time we have spent  together in this way.
D:Day27.5  level ground because you have practiced during our mountain top time  together the ability to experience on two levels.
D:Day27.14  as one. We practice experiencing the constant and the variable  together. We practice in order to move toward an experience of
D:Day28.24  all the pieces of all that we have talked about will begin to fit  together. A whole will form within your mind much as if you have been
D:Day28.26  not removed yourself. Now you must begin to weave these two threads  together into the tapestry of your new life. This weaving will take
D:Day30.1  representation of the whole. Just as simple fractions can be added  together to achieve wholeness once a common denominator is found,
D:Day30.4  thus the commonly known injunction of “where two or more are joined  together.” If you would think of this in terms of “God” or the state
D:Day31.8  separately from the Self. Self and God are one and experiencing  together in wholeness. For the individuated Self to experience
D:Day32.18  experience you have achieved during the days and nights of our time  together, be attempts to show you how you can be more like unto God
D:Day33.6  becoming one in being—is the aim toward which we have journeyed  together.
D:Day34.8 Thus we continue to draw to the close of our time  together by asking each other to experience our power—the power of
D:Day36.19  it is stated as directly as it is being stated here. But our time  together is coming to an end and your acceptance of the truth of who
D:Day37.17 Perception and knowing have been used  together here in describing the conditions of being because you must

D:16.9  You are alive. You have form. You think and feel. You have even been  told that you would cease to be without the existence of spirit, and

D:Day3.27  mind at ease, for you are not called to sacrifice, as you have been  told time and time again. I do not ask you to give up what you

D:Day3.53  ideas into being, or great talent into fruition, just as you were  told, in other words, that the “givens” are not to be dealt with by
D:Day4.13 You have been  told that in unity a “place” exists that is your natural state, a
D:Day4.13  a state free from learning, a state free from death. To be  told that such a place exists is no more comforting than consoling
D:Day4.13  if you do not feel you have access to this place. It is like being  told that all of the treasure you might desire is locked away behind
D:Day4.34  I meditated or prayed. It is said that I fasted. You have been  told that you are here to fast from want. You know that you are here
D:Day5.18  and an end to effort, not another lesson to learn that you will be  told is not a lesson. Not another cause for seeming effort in order
D:Day6.11 You have been  told you are in the final stage of becoming. You have committed to

D:Day6.29 Now let's address this seeming paradox. You have been  told to do only what you can feel peaceful doing, to do only what
D:Day6.29  to do only what allows you to be yourself, and yet here are you  told not to try to remove yourself from life.
D:Day8.13 Remember that you have been  told that your real Self will be intolerant only of illusion and that

C:16.21  of powerlessness. The rejection of powerlessness is but a step  toward your identity achieved through the awakening of love of Self.
C:17.17  to integrate your learning as we move to wholeness. The first move  toward wholeness is but to understand this: heart and mind are not

T2:7.16  Your attitude toward trust is one of waiting, as if an active stance  toward trust would be distrustful. You thus will often say that you

T3:1.5 As with much of our previous work, the first step in advancing  toward this goal is in developing an awareness of what is not the
T3:2.5  within this belief was the belief that with each successful step  toward independence came a corresponding step away from God. As
T3:2.6 We leave all of this behind now as we advance  toward truth through returning to original purpose. Your return to
T3:3.7  to integrate into your thought system, are only a first step, a step  toward holy relationship. These new beliefs of your new thought

T3:8.2 If the Source of Truth is within you, then it is your own revelation  toward which we work. Never forget that establishing your identity

T3:14.2  While these would all be worthy aims they are not the goal  toward which we work. These would be the consequences of new beliefs

T4:9.2  also eventually come to an end. For this end to learning is the goal  toward which we now work.
T4:10.7 What we work  toward now is to advance from learning and producing things and
D:1.27 Thus we work now  toward acceptance of what you have learned in unity. We work towards
D:3.12  one is now the nature of the elevated Self of form, and what we work  toward through this dialogue is your full awareness of what this
D:7.17  and vision, is still related to the self of form. It is a step  toward full acceptance and awareness of who you are now and what this
D:7.22  concerns mount, even the perceived survival needs are leading you  toward new answers of what survival may mean.
D:7.23  the old way is near and that the new is coming. They are thus moving  toward anticipation rather than adaptation, and evolution moves with
D:8.10  from separation is still valuable, as it is a sign of yearning  toward the true Self and the true expression of the Self. Thus where
D:9.8  You must continually remember your newness and the different aim  toward which we now work. The aims we clearly embraced together when
D:17.5  hands wide open, gazing jubilantly into the heavens rather than  toward the earth below. This is the stance of both desire and
D:Day3.49  of bargaining represents is yet another stage in your movement  toward acceptance. It is still based on the belief that you are
D:Day3.51 The final stage in this process, this movement  toward acceptance, is depression, a lowering of spirits and energy, a

D:Day6.31  and remain in your life. Realize that this is just what we work  toward! This difficulty will pass through you as you allow for and
D:Day7.5  You may feel supported in your spiritual life, in your progress  toward full awareness and the elevation of the self of form, but as
D:Day8.17  had not yet unlearned the lessons of the past or taken these steps  toward elevation. Now, however, it is crucial that you come to
D:Day8.27  and every feeling that you do not like will pull you from union  toward separation. All feelings of non-acceptance lead to a feeling
D:Day8.27  function—a function of the time of learning—that we are heading  toward.
D:Day9.11  It has form only within your mind and has no substance. To work  toward, or to have as a goal, the achievement of an ideal image is to
D:Day9.32  this type of freedom to strive, to achieve, to accomplish, to work  toward and realize goals. This is the second myth that must be
D:Day16.12  to you, but nevertheless for your benefit, you would go a long way  toward acceptance.
D:Day27.14 This is what we move  toward as we practice participating in two levels of experience
D:Day27.14  the constant and the variable together. We practice in order to move  toward an experience of variability within wholeness rather than
D:Day28.4  behind, the next stage of movement begins, that of external movement  toward independence. With this movement, the number of choices
D:Day28.5  leading to the next level of experience: That of external movement  toward a chosen type of life.
D:Day28.24 As you move  toward wholeness, all the pieces of all that we have talked about
D:Day33.6  one—the individuated self becoming one in being—is the aim  toward which we have journeyed together.
D:Day40.25  often have you said or felt, when confronted with some insensitivity  toward yourself, especially that of being “left out,” unrecognized,

T2:2.1 Why would we begin “A  Treatise on Unity” by talking of treasure? To pave the way for

T2:9.3  aspect of treasure that was addressed in the beginning of this  Treatise as something found that is kept secure and cherished. This
T2:12.7  is the miracle. This is why we also devoted a fair amount of this  Treatise to a discussion of calling. Calling is not only something
T2:13.1 The final call of this  Treatise is, in contrast to those put forth previously, a personal
T2:13.3 While the personal self is the subject of the next  Treatise, this is my invitation to you, specifically, to enter into a

T3:1.8 I began this  Treatise by saying that the personal self exists as the self you
T3:2.4  around this system. Now, along with the beliefs put forth in “A  Treatise on Unity,” you are asked to accept a new belief regarding

T3:8.7  is what has gone so wrong within God's creation. As was said in “A  Treatise on the Art of Thought,” the idea of love can replace the

Tx:4.32  representing the ego's need to confirm itself. This is as  true of bodily appetites as it is of the so-called “higher” ego
Tx:4.38 A hypothesis is either false or  true, to be accepted or rejected accordingly. If it is shown to be
Tx:4.38  true, to be accepted or rejected accordingly. If it is shown to be  true, it becomes a fact, after which no one attempts to evaluate it

Tx:4.52  you have made, but I will neither honor it nor love it unless it is  true.
Tx:4.55  mind. Who but the insane would undertake to believe what is not  true and then protect this belief at the cost of truth?
Tx:4.65  say, “I will not look there because I know these images are not  true.” Then let the Holy One shine on you in peace, knowing that this
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
Tx:4.91  to insist on a “collaborative venture.” This does not go against the  true spirit of meditation; it is inherent in it. Meditation is a
Tx:4.96  contrast the Soul reacts in the same way to everything it knows is  true and does not respond at all to anything else. Nor does it make
Tx:4.96  anything else. Nor does it make any attempt to establish what is  true. It knows that what is true is everything that God created. It
Tx:4.96  make any attempt to establish what is true. It knows that what is  true is everything that God created. It is in complete and direct
Tx:4.105  in great need of rehabilitation itself. All symptoms of hurt need  true helpfulness, and whenever they are met with this, the mind that
Tx:5.27  by giving and is therefore the one act of mind that resembles  true creation. You understand the role of “models” in the learning
Tx:5.36  reminds you is in direct opposition to the ego's notions, because  true and false perceptions are themselves opposed. The Holy Spirit
Tx:5.46  not mean that you can safely fail to acknowledge anything that is  true. However, the Holy Spirit will not fail to help you reinterpret
Tx:5.46  perceive as fearful and teach you that only what is loving is  true. Truth is beyond your ability to destroy but entirely within
Tx:5.79  and remember also that we said, “Do not look there.” It is still  true that “where you look to find yourself is up to you.” The Higher
Tx:6.10  what is already in them. God placed it there Himself, and so it is  true forever. I believed in it and therefore made it forever true for
Tx:6.10  it is true forever. I believed in it and therefore made it forever  true for me. Help me to teach it to our brothers in the name of the
Tx:6.10  in the name of the Kingdom of God, but first believe that it is  true for you, or you will teach amiss.
Tx:6.15  of the Holy Spirit can be justified. I undertook to show this was  true in a very extreme case merely because it would serve as a good
Tx:6.30  is total inclusion. You cannot change it now or ever. It is forever  true. It is not a belief but a fact. Anything that God create[s] is
Tx:6.30  It is not a belief but a fact. Anything that God create[s] is as  true as He is. Its truth lies only in its perfect inclusion in Him,
Tx:6.33  the mind of the thinker from which they [extend] outward. This is as  true of God's thinking as it is of yours. Because your minds are
Tx:6.34  uses everything for good, but He does not believe in what is not  true. Since the Holy Spirit is in your minds, your minds must also
Tx:6.34  your minds, your minds must also be able to believe only what is  true. The Holy Spirit can speak only for this because he speaks for
Tx:6.36  only the Holy Spirit is conflict-free. He perceives only what is  true in your mind and extends outward only to what is true in other
Tx:6.36  what is true in your mind and extends outward only to what is  true in other minds.
Tx:6.41  it can you learn it. “As you teach, so will you learn.” If that is  true, and it is true indeed, you must never forget that what you
Tx:6.41  it. “As you teach, so will you learn.” If that is true, and it is  true indeed, you must never forget that what you teach is teaching
Tx:6.51  will have great reality for you, because they are beautiful and  true. In the Kingdom, where you are and what you are is perfectly
Tx:6.52 You are as certain as God because you are as  true as He is, but what was once quite certain in your minds has
Tx:6.53 Abilities must be developed, or you cannot use them. This is not  true of anything that God created, but it is the kindest solution
Tx:6.55  to other laws is also possible, however, not because the laws are  true, but because you made them. What would be gained if God proved
Tx:6.57  because you had already taught wrongly, having believed what was not  true. You did not believe in your own perfection. Could God teach
Tx:6.59  from harm so much as what you need to learn to have joy. This is  true even of the world's teachers. Consider the confusion a child
Tx:6.71  what you believe you are. If the center of the thought system is  true, only truth extends from it. But if a lie is at its center, only
Tx:6.73  being taught to react to both as if what he does believe is not  true.
Tx:6.76 There can be no conflict between sanity and insanity. Only one is  true, and therefore only one is real. The ego tries to persuade
Tx:6.76  to persuade you that it is up to you to decide which voice is  true, but the Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was created by God,
Tx:6.82  share it. In your mind, and your mind only, He sorts out the  true from the false and teaches you to judge every thought that you
Tx:6.95  exerted great effort to preserve what you made because it was not  true. Therefore, you must now turn your effort against it. Only
Tx:6.95  This recognition is wholly without effort since it is already  true and needs no protection. It is in the perfect safety of God.
Tx:7.6  last step in the reawakening of knowledge is taken by God. This is  true, but it is hard to explain in words because words are symbols,
Tx:7.6  to explain in words because words are symbols, and nothing that is  true needs to be explained. However, the Holy Spirit has the task
Tx:7.7  created. The “last step” that God [was said to] take was therefore  true in the beginning, is true now, and will be true forever.
Tx:7.7  that God [was said to] take was therefore true in the beginning, is  true now, and will be true forever.
Tx:7.7  take was therefore true in the beginning, is true now, and will be  true forever.
Tx:7.11  underlies the defense of freedom is perfectly valid. Because it is  true, it should not be fought for, but it should be sided with.
Tx:7.12  freedom believe that its outcome will hurt them, which cannot be  true. But those who are for freedom, even if they are misguided in
Tx:7.12  defend it, are siding with the one thing in this world which is  true. Whenever anyone can listen fairly to both sides of any issue,
Tx:7.19  be used theoretically, but it has no application practically. It is  true that if you put three apples on the table and then take them
Tx:7.19  then take them away, the three apples are not there. But it is not  true that the table is now minus three apples. If there is
Tx:7.20  and you must assume the former, because if the latter were  true, the subject would not do anything. Given variable
Tx:7.29  on it. As long as you believe that you can attend to what is not  true, you are accepting conflict as your choice. Is it really a
Tx:7.32  is also a science, because it obeys the laws of God, Whose laws are  true. Because they are true, they are perfectly dependable and
Tx:7.32  it obeys the laws of God, Whose laws are true. Because they are  true, they are perfectly dependable and therefore universal in
Tx:7.52  are you who perceive only this, because you perceive only what is  true. Come therefore unto me and learn of the truth in you. The
Tx:7.53  it is acceptable to Him and therefore to His Sons. This is the  true communion of the Spirit, Who sees the altar of God in everyone
Tx:7.61  at all in peace. It is necessary against beliefs which are not  true and would never have been called upon by the Holy Spirit if you
Tx:7.61  You cannot deny that, when you believe something, you have made it  true for you.
Tx:7.63  wants no part of truth, because the truth is that the ego is not  true. If truth is total, the untrue cannot exist. Commitment to
Tx:7.64  ego believes this totally, being fully committed to it. It is not  true. The ego therefore is totally committed to untruth, perceiving
Tx:7.82  said that without projection there can be no anger, but it is also  true that without projection there can be no love. Projection is a
Tx:7.89  belief, because truth is beyond belief, and His perception is  true. The ego can be completely forgotten at any time, because it
Tx:7.90  alone, thus dispelling the idea of separation and affirming your  true identification with the whole Kingdom as literally part of
Tx:7.95  to add to reality, but no one would claim that what it adds is  true. Insanity is therefore the non-extension of truth, which
Tx:7.97  belong in it, you are describing what you do not know. That is  true in a sense, but no more true than your failure to acknowledge
Tx:7.97  what you do not know. That is true in a sense, but no more  true than your failure to acknowledge the whole result of the ego's
Tx:7.100  it. The problem is not whether what the Holy Spirit says is  true, but whether you want to listen to what He says.
Tx:8.23  has accepted. Wrong decisions have no power because they are not  true. The imprisonment which they seem to produce is no more true
Tx:8.23  not true. The imprisonment which they seem to produce is no more  true than they are.
Tx:8.32  This is the only lesson I came to teach, knowing that it is  true.
Tx:8.34  with him. When you imprison yourself, you are losing sight of your  true identification with me and with the Father. Your identification
Tx:8.41  because it has none, [and] the journey is the way to what is  true. Leave all deception behind and reach beyond all attempts of
Tx:8.42  behold it. You cannot behold the world and know God. Only one is  true.
Tx:8.43 I am come to tell you that the choice of which is  true is not yours. If it were, you would have destroyed yourselves.
Tx:8.63  as a separate entity cannot but foster illness because it is not  true. A medium of communication will lose its usefulness if it is
Tx:8.67  yourself, but condemnation is not of God. Therefore, it is not  true. No more are any of the results of your condemnation. When you
Tx:8.68 Do not allow yourselves to suffer from the results of what is not  true. Free your minds from the belief that this is possible. In its
Tx:8.69  it believes a thing is for. This is because it is incapable of  true generalizations and equates what it sees with the function it
Tx:8.70  the part, but the part does not define the whole. This is as  true of knowledge as it is of perception. The reason to know in
Tx:8.75 It is still  true that the body has no function of itself, because it is not an
Tx:8.75  premises on which the ego's interpretation of the body rests are  true. Specifically, these are that the body is for attack and that
Tx:8.77  anything, we said the one thing about the ego that is wholly  true. But there is a corollary; if knowledge is being and the ego
Tx:8.78  the distorting power of something you want, even if it is not  true? You have had many instances of how what you want can distort
Tx:8.84  His function is to distinguish only between the false and the  true, replacing the false with the true.
Tx:8.84  between the false and the true, replacing the false with the  true.
Tx:8.93  you. When we said that the Holy Spirit's function is to sort out the  true from the false in your unconscious, we meant that He has the
Tx:8.98  or retaliation. Many people seek both, but it is still  true that they do not want them. Can you ask the Holy Spirit for
Tx:8.107  has experienced what appears to be failure. This is not only  true in connection with specific things which might be harmful but
Tx:8.109  Bible emphasizes that all prayers are answered, and this must be  true if no effort is wasted. The very fact that one has asked the
Tx:8.109  heard. I assure you that they are waiting for you. It is indeed  true that no effort is wasted.
Tx:8.110  the Holy Spirit truly and doubt your brother? Believe his words are  true because of the truth which is in him. You will unite with the
Tx:8.110  him. You will unite with the truth in him, and his words will be  true. As you hear him, you will hear me. Listening to truth is
Tx:8.111  does know. This light can shine into yours, making his words  true and making you able to hear them. His words are the Holy
Tx:9.3  because the Holy Spirit does not perceive his errors. This must be  true if there is no communication at all between the ego and the Holy
Tx:9.9  it, for you will believe what your perception holds. Accept as  true only what your brother is if you would know yourself. Perceive
Tx:9.17 It is not  true that you do not know the guide is insane. You know it because
Tx:9.19  Children may believe them, and so for a while the tales are  true for them. Yet when reality dawns, the fantasies are gone.
Tx:9.29  convincing than its words. They will convince you that the words are  true. By following the right Guide you will learn the simplest of all
Tx:9.41  evaluations of yourself in your minds, and they cannot both be  true. You do not yet realize how completely different these
Tx:9.44  ego's thought system merely because He knows its foundation is not  true. Therefore, nothing that arises from it means anything. The Holy
Tx:9.44  of where it comes from. If it comes from God, He knows it to be  true. If it does not, He knows that it is meaningless.
Tx:9.53  the ego. Your grandeur is God's answer to the ego because it is  true. Littleness and grandeur cannot co-exist, nor is it possible for
Tx:9.54  grandeur is truth. Truth does not vacillate; it is always  true. When grandeur slips away from you, you have replaced it with
Tx:9.54  belief in grandiosity. Yet it must be insane because it is not  true. Your grandeur will never deceive you, but your illusions
Tx:9.55  will not produce miracles and therefore will deprive you of your  true witnesses to your reality. Truth is not obscure nor hidden, but
Tx:9.58  It is an exalted answer because of its Source, but the Source is  true and so is Its answer. Listen and do not question what you hear,
Tx:9.80  I will heal you merely because I have only one message, and it is  true. Your faith in it will make you whole when you have faith in me.
Tx:9.96  are not of yourselves. If you were, what you have made would be  true, and you could never escape.
Tx:9.106  which is not of God, will remain with you. While this is not  true in eternity, it is true in time, so that while time lasts in
Tx:9.106  will remain with you. While this is not true in eternity, it is  true in time, so that while time lasts in your minds, there will
Tx:10.1  evidence on both sides fairly, you will realize that this must be  true. Neither God nor the ego proposes a partial thought system. Each
Tx:10.4  you. You will not take this journey alone. I will lead you to your  true Father, Who hath need of you as I have. Will you not answer the
Tx:10.24  not will to be alone Himself? And if your will is His, it cannot be  true of you because it is not true of Him. Oh, my children, if you
Tx:10.24  if your will is His, it cannot be true of you because it is not  true of Him. Oh, my children, if you knew what God wills for you,
Tx:10.24  be complete! And what He wills has happened, for it was always  true.
Tx:10.43  without fear, for it cannot have any effects if its source is not  true. Fear becomes more obviously inappropriate if one recognizes the
Tx:10.50  distinguish the possible from the impossible and the false from the  true. According to the ego's teaching, its goal can be
Tx:10.54  obvious. If consistent truth is meaningless, inconsistency must be  true if truth has meaning. Holding error clearly in mind and
Tx:10.57  that His Son is unworthy, for nothing can prove that a lie is  true. What you see of His Son through the eyes of the ego is a
Tx:10.58  you perceive is a witness to the thought system you want to be  true. Every brother has the power to release you if you will to be
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:10.69  of a new Heaven and a new earth, yet this cannot be literally  true, for the eternal are not re-created. To perceive anew is
Tx:10.70  both good and evil, you are accepting both the false and the  true and making no distinction between them.
Tx:10.71  confusing illusion and reality. For perceptions cannot be partly  true. If you believe in truth and illusion, you cannot tell which
Tx:10.71  If you believe in truth and illusion, you cannot tell which is  true. To establish your personal autonomy, you tried to create
Tx:10.71  being unlike Him. Yet everything in what you have made that is  true is like Him. Only this is the real world, and perceiving
Tx:10.73  because it is the recognition that reality is only what is  true.
Tx:10.74  which, in the end, teaches nothing more than that only reality is  true is necessary. But do you believe it? When you have perceived
Tx:10.74  will leave you only an instant to realize that this judgment is  true.
Tx:10.75  you made will be forgotten, the good and the bad, the false and the  true. For as Heaven and earth become one, even the real world will
Tx:11.1  believe in error, you would have to make it real because it is not  true. But truth is real in its own right, and to believe in truth,
Tx:11.3  it requires no effort at all on your part. Every loving thought is  true. Everything else is an appeal for healing and help. That is what
Tx:11.7  are meaningless in your divided state, His remain consistently  true. He gives them to you because they are for you. Do not
Tx:11.13  interpreted, attests to your eternal knowledge that union is  true.
Tx:11.41  life. For death is not your Father's Will nor yours, and whatever is  true is the Will of the Father. You pay no price for life, for that
Tx:11.69  there. But do not then believe that the witnesses for opposition are  true, for they attest only to your decision about reality,
Tx:11.76  death, remember that I did not die. You will realize that this is  true when you look within and see me. Would I have overcome death
Tx:11.79 When you made what is not  true visible, what is true became invisible. Yet it cannot be
Tx:11.79 When you made what is not true visible, what is  true became invisible. Yet it cannot be invisible in itself, for
Tx:11.92  for although he believes in it, the Holy Spirit knows it is not  true. The Holy Spirit stands at the end of time, where you must
Tx:11.99  been. As He looks upon the guiltless Son of God, he knows this is  true. And being true for you, you cannot attack yourself, for
Tx:11.99  upon the guiltless Son of God, he knows this is true. And being  true for you, you cannot attack yourself, for without guilt,
Tx:12.39  His sane answer tells you that what you have offered yourself is not  true, but His offering to you has never changed. You who know not
Tx:12.50  upon the present, for it holds the only things that are forever  true. All healing lies within it because its continuity is real. It
Tx:12.60  of one is possible because you have denied the other. Both are not  true, yet either one will seem as real to you as the amount to which
Tx:12.63  you see? All vision starts with the perceiver who judges what is  true and what is false. And what he judges false he does not see.
Tx:12.66  way that leads you to remembrance of this one thing that is wholly  true and wholly yours. For all else you have lent yourself in time,
Tx:12.67  of nightmares for the happy dreams of love. In these lie your  true perceptions, for the Holy Spirit corrects the world of dreams,
Tx:13.5  one forever. Every miracle you offer to the Son of God is but the  true perception of one aspect of the whole. Though every aspect is
Tx:13.14  is the means by which the Holy Spirit can separate the false and the  true, which you have accepted into your minds without distinction.
Tx:13.14  you cannot value one without the other, and guilt has become as  true for you as innocence. You do not believe the Son of God is
Tx:13.16  of Atonement for all your brothers. For so you learn that it is  true for you. Remember always that it is impossible to condemn the
Tx:13.28  you do not remember how much you love Him. Yet it is forever  true. In shining peace within you is the perfect purity in which you
Tx:13.30  there is no love apart from His. Until you recognize that this is  true, you will have no idea what love is like. No one who condemns a
Tx:13.38  the difference for you, allowing Him to demonstrate which must be  true. He has perfect faith in your final judgment because He knows
Tx:13.45  for you everything you have learned that teaches you what is not  true must be reconciled with truth. This is the reconciliation which
Tx:13.46  and by you in return. For how can you remember what was never  true or not remember what has always been? It is this
Tx:13.52  leads you not goes nowhere. Anything you deny which He knows to be  true, you have denied yourself, and He must therefore teach you
Tx:13.56  are you less inclined to listen to. The contrast between what is  true and what is not is perfectly apparent, yet you do not see it.
Tx:13.57  this the Holy Spirit sees and teaches simply that all this is not  true. To these unhappy learners who would teach themselves nothing
Tx:13.58 The truth is  true. Nothing else matters, nothing else is real, and everything
Tx:13.59  the Holy Spirit did not make truth. Like God, He knows it to be  true. He brings the light of truth into the darkness and lets it
Tx:13.60 When you teach anyone that truth is  true, you learn it with him. And so you learn that what seemed
Tx:13.61  lessons that come quickly on the firm foundation that truth is  true. For what is builded there is true and built on truth. The
Tx:13.61  firm foundation that truth is true. For what is builded there is  true and built on truth. The universe of learning will open up
Tx:13.62  from the past and open up the way to freedom for you. For truth is  true. What else could ever be or ever was? This simple lesson holds
Tx:13.63  Him with everything. Can he sing the dirge of sorrow when this is  true?
Tx:13.68  they are opposites which cannot be reconciled and cannot both be  true. You are guilty or guiltless, bound or free, happy or
Tx:13.73  you because of the concept of decision which led to it. It is not  true that you can make decisions by yourself or for yourself
Tx:13.76  pure. Do not decide against it, for being of Him, it must be  true. Peace abides in every mind that quietly accepts the plan which
Tx:14.3  it and thus denied Heaven to itself. Atonement teaches you the  true condition of the Son of God. It does not teach you what you are
Tx:14.6  it and learns it, he will suffer the pain of dim awareness that his  true function remains unfulfilled in him. The burden of guilt is
Tx:14.22  out all that has meaning, dropping off the rest and offering your  true communication to those who would communicate as truly with you.
Tx:14.26  the unknowing that they know. From their point of view, it is not  true. Yet it is true because God knows it. These are clearly
Tx:14.26  they know. From their point of view, it is not true. Yet it is  true because God knows it. These are clearly opposite viewpoints of
Tx:14.39  in light is not attacked. It merely vanishes because it is not  true. Different realities are meaningless, for reality must be one.
Tx:14.47  you seem to live in is a world of limits. In this world, it is not  true that anything without order of difficulty can occur. The
Tx:14.49  wiser or more productive and valuable than others. And this is  true about the thoughts which cross the mind of those who think they
Tx:14.54  defend its lack of content. The fact of union tells them it is not  true.
Tx:14.57 The miracle is the recognition that this is  true. Where there is love, your brother must give it to you because
Tx:14.58  you is but your learning of the false and your attempts to undo the  true.
Tx:14.63  test, as sure as God, by which to recognize if what you learned is  true. If you are wholly free of fear of any kind, and if all those
Tx:14.63  that you have learned God's lesson and not yours. Unless all this is  true, there are dark lessons in your minds which hurt and hinder
Tx:15.24  at first, but you will learn to love it when you realize that it is  true and constitutes a tribute to your power. You who have sought and
Tx:16.5  True empathy is of Him Who knows what it is. You will learn His
Tx:16.14  you, and so you are unwilling to believe that what has happened is  true. But can you really believe that all that has happened, even
Tx:16.16  His witnesses, who bring you the glad tidings He has come. It is  true, just as you fear, that to acknowledge Him is to deny all that
Tx:16.16  Him is to deny all that you think you know. But it was never  true. What gain is there to you in clinging to it and denying the
Tx:16.26  to strengthen your faith in what you taught. For what you taught is  true. Alone you stand outside your teaching and apart from it. But
Tx:16.35  you have built against it. It is not necessary to seek for what is  true, but it is necessary to seek for what is false. Every illusion
Tx:16.36 Recognize this, for it is  true, and truth must be recognized if it is to be distinguished
Tx:16.45  and everything here takes a direction exactly opposite of what is  true. In Heaven, where the meaning of love is known, love is the same
Tx:16.56  will fail to do this to the extent to which you want them to be  true. And to the same extent you are denying truth, and so are
Tx:16.78  the holy instant, this is done for you in time to bring to you the  true condition of Heaven.
Tx:16.81 Forgive us our illusions, Father, and help us to accept our  true relationship with You in which there are no illusions and where
Tx:17.5  you. There is no order in reality because everything there is  true.
Tx:17.23  the Holy Spirit sees because He knows that only this is  true. You have made the relationship unreal and therefore unholy by
Tx:17.25  choose except between God and the ego. Thought systems are but  true or false, and all their attributes come simply from what they
Tx:17.25  come simply from what they are. Only the Thoughts of God are  true. And all that follows from them comes from what they are and is
Tx:17.25  And all that follows from them comes from what they are and is as  true as is the holy Source from which they came.
Tx:17.42  experience again the meaning of relationship and know it to be  true. Let us ascend in peace together to the Father by giving Him
Tx:17.51  eternity? For you have chosen but the goal of God from which your  true intent was never absent.
Tx:17.60  closer to the Holy Spirit's sorting out of truth and falsity. The  true becomes what can be used to meet the goal. The false becomes the
Tx:17.77  believing that the “something else” produced it. This was never  true. For what the “something else” produced was sorrow and
Tx:18.15  wishes, and therefore they have no concern with what is  true. They are the best example you could have of how perception can
Tx:18.44 Happy dreams come  true, not because they are dreams, but only because they are
Tx:18.86  it. And these messages bear witness to this world, pronouncing it as  true. For you sent forth these messengers to bring this back to you.
Tx:19.8 Truth and illusion have no connection. This will remain forever  true, however much you seek to connect them. But illusions are
Tx:19.21  “holy” concept in the ego's system—lovely and powerful, wholly  true, and necessarily protected with every defense at its disposal.
Tx:19.26  its enormity. [What must be punished must be true. And what is  true must be eternal and will be repeated endlessly.] For what
Tx:19.30  your perception is unchangeable and that the mind must accept as  true what it is told through it. If it does not obey, the mind is
Tx:19.75 Hear not its madness, and believe not the impossible is  true. Forget not that the ego has dedicated the body to the goal of
Tx:19.83  purpose. As you look upon it, so will it seem to be. Death, were it  true, would be the final and complete disruption of communication
Tx:20.16  impaired condition are adjustments necessary because they are not  true. Who need adjust to truth, which calls on only what he is, to
Tx:20.24  you have given it power to adjust the world to make its answer  true. You asked this puff of madness for the meaning of your unholy
Tx:20.28  everything to God, Who has already given and received all that is  true. The untrue He has neither received nor given.
Tx:20.54 The holy relationship reflects the  true relationship the Son of God has with his Father in reality. The
Tx:20.54  in gladness for the holy one of safe return. Here is the way to  true relationships held gently open, through which you walk together,
Tx:20.57  remains with you. Yet what is that to those who have been given one  true relationship beyond the body? Can they be long held back from
Tx:20.61  result of letting the effects of sin be lifted so what was always  true is recognized. To see a sinless body is impossible, for
Tx:20.75  adjusts to sin and seems to witness to its reality. It still is  true that nothing is without. Yet upon nothing are all projections
Tx:21.13  mind by which the crucifixion is changed to resurrection. And being  true, it is so simple that it cannot fail to be completely
Tx:21.19  to you, you listened and convinced yourself that what it saw was  true. You did this to yourself. See only this, and you will also
Tx:21.54  you but there, where this same answer is? Your Identity, as much a  true effect of this same Source as is the answer, must therefore be
Tx:22.7  no reason not to listen nor to suspect that what it tells you is not  true. Reason would tell you it cannot be true because you do not
Tx:22.7  what it tells you is not true. Reason would tell you it cannot be  true because you do not understand it. God has no secrets. He does
Tx:22.20  way, for reason sees the source of an idea as what will make it  true or false. This must be so if the idea is like its source.
Tx:22.22  course will be believed entirely or not at all. For it is wholly  true or wholly false and cannot be but partially believed. And you
Tx:22.24  mind, be different from it, and in opposition to it. If this were  true, thoughts would not be the mind's extensions but its enemies.
Tx:22.25  you made has been your own. Are you not glad to learn it is not  true? Is it not welcome news to hear not one of the illusions that
Tx:22.27  be separate. Its will has no exceptions, and what it wills is  true. Every illusion brought to its forgiveness is gently overlooked
Tx:22.33  the wall that stands between you and the truth, is wholly  true. Yet how can sight which stops at nothingness as if it were a
Tx:22.35  and so they can deceive. You can change form because it is not  true. It could not be reality, because it can be changed. Reason
Tx:22.45  you that they contradict reality. They go against what must be  true. The opposition comes from them and not reality. Reality opposes
Tx:22.63  never both. The only question to be answered to decide which must be  true is whether you are different. From the position of what you
Tx:22.63  more in line with truth to teach you what is natural and  true.
Tx:22.65  decide if you be different or the same and teach you which is  true.
Tx:23.11 Could nature possibly establish this and make it  true? Nor is it up to you to say what shall be part of you and what
Tx:23.12  from each other in the belief the one which conquers will be  true. There is no conflict between them and the truth. Nor are
Tx:23.12  the truth. Nor are they different from each other. Both are not  true. And so it matters not what form they take. What made them is
Tx:23.15  His home. And you who are beloved of Him are no illusions, being as  true and holy as Himself.
Tx:23.16  place where love abides, protecting you from everything that is not  true. You dwell in peace as limitless as its Creator, and everything
Tx:23.17  are different. And they do battle only to establish which form is  true.
Tx:23.20  is a hierarchy of illusions; some are more valuable and therefore  true. Each one establishes this for himself and makes it true by
Tx:23.20  therefore true. Each one establishes this for himself and makes it  true by his attack on what another values. And this is justified
Tx:23.27  the fourth law of chaos, which, if the others are accepted, must be  true. This seeming law is the belief you have what you have taken.
Tx:23.32  a reversal, completely turned around, with madness sanity, illusions  true, attack a kindness, hatred love and murder benediction, is the
Tx:23.34  and disregard of content. No one who thinks that one of them is  true sees what it says. Some forms it takes seem to have meaning,
Tx:23.36 You would maintain and think it  true that you do not believe these senseless laws nor act upon them.
Tx:23.37  to Heaven. Illusions are but forms. Their content is never  true.
Tx:23.38  laws completely, offering a certain witness that these laws are  true. The seeming gentler forms of the attack are no less certain in
Tx:23.41 Is it not  true you do not recognize some of the forms attack can take? If it is
Tx:23.41  you do not recognize some of the forms attack can take? If it is  true attack in any form will hurt you and will do so just as much as
Tx:23.47  attack, and no illusion in any form stalks Heaven. Heaven is wholly  true. No difference enters, and what is all the same cannot conflict.
Tx:23.48  different? Murder and love are incompatible. Yet if they both are  true, then must they be the same and indistinguishable from one
Tx:24.40  Specialness, too, takes joy in what it sees, although it is not  true. Yet what you seek for is a source of joy as you conceive it.
Tx:24.40  seek for is a source of joy as you conceive it. What you wish is  true for you. Nor is it possible that you can wish for something and
Tx:24.64  given you to see his holiness because it is the truth. And what is  true in him must be as true in you.
Tx:24.64  because it is the truth. And what is true in him must be as  true in you.
Tx:24.66  Only the purpose that you see in it has meaning, and if that is  true, its safety rests secure. If not, it has no purpose and is means
Tx:24.67  means and end are one, and one with Him. This is the state of  true creation, found not within time, but in eternity. To no one here
Tx:24.68  end unite as one, nor does this one have any end at all. All this is  true, and yet it has no meaning to anyone who still retains one
Tx:24.69  is the outward picture of a wish—an image that you wanted to be  true.
Tx:24.70  that you want to be yourself. It is the means to make your wish come  true. It gives the eyes with which you look on it, the hands that
Tx:25.14 Is it not also  true that you have found some hope apart from this—some
Tx:25.37  the other were the truth, for each attests the other must be  true.
Tx:25.52  at all within this world. And nothing that the world believes as  true has any meaning in His Mind at all. What makes no sense and has
Tx:25.52  cannot be the truth. If one belief so deeply valued here were  true, then every Thought God ever had is an illusion. And if but one
Tx:25.52  God ever had is an illusion. And if but one Thought of His is  true, then all beliefs the world gives any meaning to are false and
Tx:25.53  thinks, or is maintained by any form of reason believes this to be  true. Sin is not real because the Father and the Son are not
Tx:25.60  it seems that one must gain because another lost. If this were  true, then God is mad indeed! But what is this belief except a form
Tx:25.61  can be corrected here. And sin must be impossible if this is  true. This is the rock on which salvation rests, the vantage point
Tx:25.67  of punishment that they lay it aside unaided and perceive it is not  true? It is extremely hard for those who still believe sin meaningful
Tx:25.71  to save? What can Love ask of you who think that all of this is  true? Could He, in justice and in love believe in your confusion you
Tx:25.75  vengeance. You need not perceive in every circumstance that this is  true. Nor need you look to your experience within the world, which is
Tx:25.80  solves will always be one in which no one loses. And this must be  true because He asks no sacrifice of anyone. An answer which demands
Tx:26.11  loss is possible and could result in gain for anyone. If this were  true, then God would be unfair, sin would be possible, attack be
Tx:26.13  an error. It does injustice to the Son of God and therefore is not  true. The Holy Spirit does not evaluate injustices as great or small
Tx:26.20  a limited reality, a partial truth, a segment of the universe made  true. This is because knowledge makes no attack upon perception. They
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 true?
Tx:26.24  never true, can it be hard to give it up and choose what must be  true?
Tx:26.36  in another time. In the extreme, he can delude himself that this is  true and pass from mere imagining into belief and into madness, quite
Tx:26.41  of eternity. They come from what is past and gone and hinder not the  true existence of the here and now. The real world is the second part
Tx:26.49 Perception's laws are opposite to truth, and what is  true of knowledge is not true of anything that is apart from it. Yet
Tx:26.49  laws are opposite to truth, and what is true of knowledge is not  true of anything that is apart from it. Yet has God given answer to
Tx:26.50  reversals of the laws of truth. The laws of truth forever will be  true and cannot be reversed, yet can be seen as upside-down. And
Tx:26.51  help. No illusion has any truth in it. Yet it appears some are more  true than others, although this clearly makes no sense at all. All
Tx:26.51  and are false. Your preference gives them no reality. Not one is  true in any way, and all must yield with equal ease to what God gave
Tx:26.52  can be expected but can not establish that the picture must be  true.
Tx:26.53  meaning where no meaning is. And truth needs no defense to make it  true. Illusions have no witnesses and no effects. Who looks on them
Tx:26.56 Salvation, perfect and complete, asks but a little wish that what is  true be true; a little willingness to overlook what is not there; a
Tx:26.56  perfect and complete, asks but a little wish that what is true be  true; a little willingness to overlook what is not there; a little
Tx:26.56  and complete. What is forgiveness but a willingness that truth be  true? What can remain unhealed and broken from a Unity Which holds
Tx:26.60  are one, not separate. God wills you learn what always has been  true—that He created you as part of Him, and this must still be
Tx:26.60  true—that He created you as part of Him, and this must still be  true because ideas leave not their source. Such is creation's law—
Tx:26.60  but adds to its abundance, never takes away. This is as  true of what is idly wished as what is truly willed, because the mind
Tx:26.60  to believe ideas can leave their source is to invite illusions to be  true, without success. For never will success be possible in trying
Tx:26.67  can make no change at all. But it can make what always has been  true be recognized by those who know it not. And by this little gift
Tx:27.6  is his comfort and his health because it proves illusions are not  true.
Tx:27.9  sin will end alike within the termination of the grave. If this were  true, there would be reason to remain content to seek for passing
Tx:27.15  forgive their brothers and themselves as well. For no one in whom  true forgiveness reigns can suffer. He holds not the proof of sin
Tx:27.32  beyond the truth, for what can stand for more than everything? Yet  true undoing must be kind. And so the first replacement for your
Tx:27.39  one question. It is this: “Of these illusions, which of them are  true? Which ones establish peace and offer joy? And which can bring
Tx:27.39  prefer? That is the one which you should choose. The others are not  true. What can the body get that you would want the most of all? It
Tx:27.56  or that, but nothing more, you choose. You do not make a witness  true because you called him by truth's name. The truth is found in
Tx:27.59  forgives because it stands for what is past forgiveness and is  true. How foolish and insane it is to think a miracle is bound by
Tx:27.80  and events which it contrives. That this is all the body does is  true, for it is but a figure in a dream. But who reacts to figures
Tx:27.86  unto yourself. No matter what the form of the attack, this still is  true. Whoever takes the role of enemy and of attacker, still is this
Tx:27.86  to be the cause of any pain and suffering you feel, this is still  true. For you would not react at all to figures in a dream you knew
Tx:27.90  is impossible is that you be unlike each other; that they both be  true. This is the only secret yet to learn. And it will be no secret
Tx:28.22 The miracle establishes you dream a dream and that its content is not  true. This is a crucial step in dealing with illusions. No one is
Tx:28.64  be apart. Yet all it means is that you tried to keep a promise to be  true to faithlessness. Yet faithlessness is sickness. It is like
Tx:29.25  can be but some illusions? They are dreams because they are not  true. Their equal lack of truth becomes the basis for the miracle,
Tx:30.49  made to fill the gap you think arose between yourself and what is  true. And you attack them for the things you think they represent.
Tx:30.76 It must be  true the miracle can heal all forms of sickness, or it cannot heal.
Tx:30.76  cannot be to judge which forms are real and which appearances are  true. If one appearance must remain apart from healing, one illusion
Tx:30.82  meaning. For it cannot be that meaning changes constantly and yet is  true. The Holy Spirit looks upon the world as with one purpose,
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 How 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
Tx:31.1  is all. Can this be hard to learn by anyone who wants it to be  true? Only unwillingness to learn it could make such an easy lesson
Tx:31.1  lesson difficult. How hard is it to see that what is false cannot be  true, and what is true cannot be false? You can no longer say that
Tx:31.1  How hard is it to see that what is false cannot be true, and what is  true cannot be false? You can no longer say that you perceive no
Tx:31.1  You can no longer say that you perceive no differences in false and  true. You have been told exactly how to tell one from the other and
Tx:31.5  before the Voice of truth and teach you that Its lessons are not  true, too hard to learn, too difficult to see, and too opposed to
Tx:31.5  to learn, too difficult to see, and too opposed to what is really  true. Yet you will learn them, for their learning is the only
Tx:31.14  be made each time you think you must decide on anything. Neither is  true. Nor are they different. Yet must we see them both before you
Tx:31.22  come away without the thoughts you did not want and that were never  true.
Tx:31.35  greatest lesson. All must reach this point and go beyond it. It is  true indeed there is no choice at all within the world. But this is
Tx:31.49  exist. They are not given, and they must be made. Not one of them is  true, and many come from feverish imaginations, hot with hatred and
Tx:31.53  kept in darkness is that in the light the one who would not think it  true is you. And what would happen to the world you know if all its
Tx:31.62  in this determines all you see and think is real and hold as  true. On this one choice does all your world depend, for here have
Tx:31.65  you made. Your will be done! In Heaven as on earth, this is forever  true. It matters not where you believe you are nor what you think the
Tx:31.75 Behold your role within the universe! To every part of  true creation has the Lord of Love and Life entrusted all salvation

W1:5.1  of forms, all of which will be perceived as different. This is not  true. However, until you learn that form does not matter, each form
W1:7.10 Look about you. This is equally  true of whatever you look at. Acknowledge this by applying the idea
W1:8.2 The only wholly  true thought one can hold about the past is that it is not here. To
W1:15.3  eyes at last. They will not persist, because they merely symbolize  true perception, and they are not related to knowledge. These
W1:16.1  Thoughts are not big or little, powerful or weak. They are merely  true or false. Those which are true create their own likeness. Those
W1:16.1  powerful or weak. They are merely true or false. Those which are  true create their own likeness. Those which are false make theirs.
W1:17.8  is because you are unaware as yet of any thoughts which are really  true and therefore really happy.
W1:19.2  resistance to this idea, you will yet understand that it must be  true if salvation is possible at all. And salvation must be possible
W1:27.1  today's exercises is to bring the time when the idea will be wholly  true a little nearer.
W1:27.7  how often will you remember? How much do you want today's idea to be  true? Answer one of these questions, and you have answered the other.
W1:35.5  matter. Illusions have no direction in reality. They are merely not  true.
W1:37.1 This idea contains the first glimmerings of your  true function in the world or why you are here. Your purpose is to
W1:48.1  it is very difficult to recognize for those who want illusions to be  true.
W1:51.6  trying to justify “my” thoughts. I am constantly trying to make them  true. I make all things my “enemies” so that my anger is justified
W1:54.2  eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My thoughts cannot be neither  true nor false. They must be one or the other. What I see shows me
W1:61.3  True humility requires that you accept today's idea because it is
W1:61.3  accept today's idea because it is God's Voice Which tells you it is  true. This is a beginning step in accepting your real function on
W1:62.8  these words, and in your mind is the awareness that they are  true. Should your attention wander, repeat the idea and add:
W1:65.9 On this clean slate, let my  true function be written for me.
W1:66.10  or is made by the ego which you have made to replace Him. Which is  true? Unless God gave your function to you, it must be the gift of
W1:66.13  on the other. Let us try today to realize that only the truth is  true.
W1:72.15  We are asking it of truth. Be certain, then, that the answer will be  true because of Whom you ask. Whenever you feel your confidence wane
W1:74.2  for today are directed towards finding it. The idea itself is wholly  true. Therefore it cannot give rise to illusions. Without illusions,
W1:75.9  He will be with you as you watch and wait. He will show you what  true vision sees. It is His Will, and you have joined with Him. Wait
W1:77.1  Again, how simple is salvation! It is merely a statement of your  true Identity. It is this that we will celebrate today.
W1:78.8  on him a different way and see our savior shining in the light of  true forgiveness given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God
W1:87.2  only on what it shows me. This day I will experience the peace of  true perception.
W1:91.6 Begin the longer practice periods with this statement of  true cause and effect relationships:
W1:93.1  from you as if from a poisonous snake. You think if what is  true about you were revealed to you, you would be struck with horror
W1:93.2  dreams and have bowed down to idols made of dust—all this is  true by what you now believe.
W1:93.6  God. Over and over this must be repeated until it is accepted. It is  true. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. Nothing can touch it nor
W1:93.11 You are what God created or what you made. One Self is  true; the other is not there. Try to experience the unity of your One
W1:93.17  to bring the conviction to your mind that the idea for the day is  true indeed.
W1:94.2  True light is strength, and strength is sinlessness. If you remain as
W1:95.12 This is the truth, and nothing else is  true. Today we will affirm this truth again and try to reach the
W1:95.12  reach the place in you in which there is no doubt that only this is  true. Begin the practice periods today with this assurance, given to
W1:95.16  and one goal—to bring awareness of this oneness to all minds, that  true creation may extend the Allness and the Unity of God.
W1:97.11  words He offers you today, and let Him tell your mind that they are  true.
W1:98.11  with all His faith and joy and certainty that what you say is  true. And you will have conviction then of Him Who knows the function
W1:99.5  separation, and on loss. Yet does He know one thing must still be  true—God still is Love, and this is not His Will.
W1:99.16  and fear forever from your mind. If you are tempted to believe them  true, remember that appearances cannot withstand the truth these
W1:101.2  sin is real then happiness must be illusion, for they cannot both be  true. The sinful warrant only death and pain, and it is this they ask
W1:103.6  day, and quiet all your fears with this assurance, kind and wholly  true:
W1:105.5  True giving is creation. It extends the limitless to the unlimited,
W1:105.10  a while, and let His Voice assure you that the words you speak are  true.
W1:106.4  those you ever dreamt or wished for in your dreams. His miracles are  true. They will not fade when dreaming ends. They end the dream
W1:108.1  conflicts and mistaken thoughts into one concept which is wholly  true? Even that one will disappear because the Thought behind it will
W1:108.2  True light which makes true vision possible is not the light the
W1:108.2 True light which makes  true vision possible is not the light the body's eyes behold. It is a
W1:108.6  has special usefulness because it can be tried so easily and seen as  true. And when this special case has proved it always works in every
W1:110.1  would be enough to save you and the world if you believed that it is  true. Its truth would mean that you have made no changes in yourself
W1:122.15 Forgiveness offers everything I want. Today I have accepted this as  true. Today I have received the gifts of God.
W1:123.4  today in honor of the Self Which God has willed to be our  true Identity in Him. Today we smile on everyone we see and walk with
W1:125.9  It, with no illusions interposed between the wholly indivisible and  true.
W1:126.3  one unworthy of the gift because his sins have lowered him beneath a  true equality with you. He has no claim on your forgiveness. It holds
W1:126.5 If this be  true, forgiveness has no grounds on which to rest dependably and
W1:126.7  as worthy of His Son? Salvation is a better gift than this, and  true forgiveness, as the means by which it is attained, must heal the
W1:126.12  I give is given to myself. The Help I need to learn that this is  true is with me now. And I will trust in Him.
W1:128.1  to bitter ashes of despair. No one but must accept this thought as  true, if he would leave this world behind and soar beyond its petty
W1:128.3  worth from you, and add another bar across the door that leads to  true awareness of your Self.
W1:130.11  the limits on your choice. The unreal or the real, the false or  true is what you see, and only what you see. Perception is consistent
W1:131.10  foolish thoughts like these behind today, and turn your mind to  true ideas instead.
W1:131.11  the real world to replace the foolish images that we held dear, with  true ideas arising in the place of thoughts which have no meaning, no
W1:131.14  well which are compatible with such a world and which you think are  true. Then let them go, and sink below them to the holy place where
W1:132.9 Today's idea is  true because the world does not exist. And if it is indeed your own
W1:134.2  when you can accept the fact that pardon is not asked for what is  true. It must be limited to what is false. It is irrelevant to
W1:134.3  in an unfounded effort to deceive yourself by making an illusion  true. This twisted viewpoint but reflects the hold that the idea of
W1:134.4  look on pardon as deception. For it is impossible to think of sin as  true and not believe forgiveness is a lie. Thus is forgiveness really
W1:134.9 Now are you free to follow in the way your  true forgiveness opens up to you. For if one brother has received
W1:134.9  is open to yourself. There is a very simple way to find the door to  true forgiveness and perceive it open wide in welcome. When you feel
W1:134.14 Today we practice  true forgiveness that the time of joining be no more delayed. For we

W1:136.6  fragments of the whole, assembles them without regard to all their  true relationships, and thus constructs illusions of a whole which is
W1:137.4  that lies must be the truth. But healing demonstrates that truth is  true. The separation sickness would impose has never really happened.
W1:138.2  as the relinquishment of hell. It is not really thus. Yet what is  true in God's creation cannot enter here unless it is reflected in
W1:138.4  one is made, you will perceive it was no choice at all, for truth is  true and nothing else is real. There is no opposite to choose
W1:139.6  share 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
W1:139.6  that what is universal here is true? Nothing the world believes is  true. It is a place whose purpose is to be a home where those who
W1:140.9  others. All of them are false and can be cured because they are not  true.
W1:R4.4  blocks this thought from his awareness. Yet it is forever  true.
W1:R4.5  with some understanding of the many forms in which the lack of  true forgiveness may be carefully concealed. Because they are
W1:152.2 You may believe that this position is extreme and too inclusive to be  true. Yet can truth have exceptions? If you have the gift of
W1:152.3 Salvation is the recognition that the truth is  true and nothing else is true. This you have heard before, but may
W1:152.3  is the recognition that the truth is true and nothing else is  true. This you have heard before, but may not yet accept both parts
W1:152.3  second has no meaning, but without the second is the first no longer  true. Truth cannot have an opposite. This cannot be too often said
W1:152.3  This cannot be too often said and thought about. For if what is not  true is true as well as what is true, then part of truth is false,
W1:152.3  be too often said and thought about. For if what is not true is  true as well as what is true, then part of truth is false, and truth
W1:152.3  thought about. For if what is not true is true as well as what is  true, then part of truth is false, and truth has lost its meaning.
W1:152.3  is false, and truth has lost its meaning. Nothing but the truth is  true, and what is false is false.
W1:152.9 Today we practice  true humility, abandoning the false pretense by which the ego seeks
W1:152.10  guilty and afraid, ashamed of what we are. And we lift our hearts in  true humility instead to Him Who has created us immaculate, like to
W1:152.11  we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false and only truth is  true.
W1:153.8 We will not play such childish games today. For our  true purpose is to save the world, and we would not exchange for
W1:153.14  tale. God's Son can smile at last on learning that it is not  true.
W1:153.18  Voice guiding your footsteps into quiet ways where you will walk in  true defenselessness, for you will know that Heaven goes with you.
W1:154.11  And He needs our will united with His own, that we may be the  true receivers of the gifts He gives.
W1:154.15  recedes as we light up our minds and realize these holy words are  true. They are the message sent to us today from our Creator. Now we
W1:156.1  mentioned in the text—ideas leave not their source. If this be  true, how can you be apart from God? How could you walk the world

W1:163.6  if we be sane; what contradicts one thought entirely cannot be  true unless its opposite is proven false.

W1:184.3  is given meaning and will then be seen as meaningful, a cause of  true effects with consequence inherent in itself.
W1:184.6  is there. It can be seen, as is anticipated. What denies that it is  true is but illusion, for it is the ultimate reality. To question it
W1:184.8 Think not you made the world. Illusions, yes! But what is  true in earth and Heaven is beyond your naming. When you call upon a

W2:WIS.2  as lies. The senses then will seek instead for witnesses to what is  true.

W2:327.1  answer me Himself. Let me but learn from my experience that this is  true, and faith in Him must surely come to me. This is the faith that

C:2.4  This is why you can understand love as fear's opposite. This is  true enough. But because you have not properly recognized fear as

C:15.3 While you desire specialness for yourself, your  true Self will remain hidden and unknown, and since this is a Course
C:15.3  and unknown, and since this is a Course that seeks to reveal your  true identity, specialness must be seen for what it is so that you

C:27.5  and a true Self only because you have not as yet identified your  true Self. Once you have identified your true Self all such confusion
C:27.5  not as yet identified your true Self. Once you have identified your  true Self all such confusion will end.

C:29.5 This is as  true for your own goal of wholeheartedness as it is for any wider
C:29.12  that God's work takes place outside of time, as do all acts of  true service or creation. This is not a readily understandable
C:29.21  Claiming is akin to prayer and is but an asking, an asking for your  true inheritance. You have felt that you need to know for what it is

T1:2.4  from those of the ego-mind are the expression and extension of your  true Self. They are the answer of the Created to the Creator, the
T1:3.6  quest for proof that demonstrates a lack of faith but the reverse is  true. What kind of miracle would lead to a lack of faith? There is no
T1:3.9  consequences for yourself. If you requested a miracle, and it came  true, what then? If you request a small miracle and it comes true,
T1:3.9  it came true, what then? If you request a small miracle and it comes  true, how awful you would feel that you had not requested a bigger
T1:6.6  state of lack for what is seen as missing or desired. In contrast,  true prayer, formed in union, is a means of creating, recollecting,
T1:7.1  would desire to live, achieve what you would choose to achieve. The  true way in which to see this prerequisite to the condition of
T1:10.10  past what you have remembered to what was truly there. No moment of  true learning ever arrived without the Peace of God for without the
T1:10.10  arrived without the Peace of God for without the Peace of God no  true learning is possible.

T2:2.7  unseen and to imagine the existence of that which will reveal its  true nature and its joy.
T2:3.7  to express that aspect of creation. It is quite literally  true that the seeds of much of creation lie dormant within you,
T2:4.12 You who have so recently felt the peace of  true acceptance are not asked to leave that peace to go in search of
T2:6.7  but also part of the ongoing nature of creation. Could this be  true of a chair and not be true of you?

T2:7.19  this place you learn to discriminate, to separate the false from the  true, for your ego thoughts cannot long abide in the holy place of
T2:7.19  and illusion separated, you develop the discipline to express your  true Self, as you are now. This is the only way the Self you are now
T2:7.21  giving and receiving being one in truth, your belief will become  true conviction. Your ability to recognize giving and receiving as
T2:8.6  to the special relationships that would take you away from your  true Self. Never again will you be away from home for home is who you
T2:9.7  are shared. This is what differentiates needs from wants. This is  true in two senses. It is true in that all needs, from survival needs
T2:9.7  differentiates needs from wants. This is true in two senses. It is  true in that all needs, from survival needs to needs for love are
T2:9.11  are met, the desire to hang on to what you have arises. This is  true of knowledge, or what you know, and of who you are, just as much
T2:10.6  needs have been shown to be shared in like measure by all, so too is  true knowing. Just as needs were shown to be distinguishable from
T2:11.7  the belief in separation and all that followed from it. Thus your  true identity must be recreated from the belief in unity that is
T2:11.7  all that opposes relationship, and the ego is all that opposes your  true identity.
T2:11.11  both wholly human and wholly divine? These statements can only be  true if there is no division between you and relationship, if there
T2:11.12  then the image of yourself the ego has put forth would have been a  true image. But as life cannot exist apart from relationship, this
T2:11.12  is but your belief that this has occurred; that what could never be  true has become the truth.
T2:12.2  right action. Until you were able to distinguish the false from the  true, you were not able to receive the power of miracles.
T2:12.10  gardener knows she is part of the relationship that is the garden. A  true gardener believes not in bad seeds. A true gardener believes not
T2:12.10  that is the garden. A true gardener believes not in bad seeds. A  true gardener believes not that she is in control. A true gardener
T2:12.10  in bad seeds. A true gardener believes not that she is in control. A  true gardener accepts the grandeur that is the garden and finds it
T2:13.5  from which all calls are sounded and received, the place where the  true thinking of those united in mind and heart arises. Gratitude is
T3:1.1  that you may claim your personal self again and present to others a  true representation of who you are.
T3:1.2 While still a representation, there is a huge difference between a  true representation and a false representation.
T3:1.3  of the ego as the self is what has led to the world you see. A  true representation of the Self that you are is what we work toward
T3:1.3  you are is what we work toward in this Treatise and will lead to  true vision and to a new world.
T3:1.5  what is not the truth. While the ability to distinguish between the  true and the untrue has been repeatedly discussed as the ability to
T3:1.9  was who you were, was an illusion that blocked awareness of your  true Self from your mind. Your true Self is now ready to come out of
T3:1.9  that blocked awareness of your true Self from your mind. Your  true Self is now ready to come out of the mist of illusion in which
T3:2.2  or in other words, by making something known. This is what  true relationship does and is its purpose as well as what it is.
T3:3.2  these traits that are not loveable and then I will know your love is  true.” You make this same statement to yourself as well, seemingly
T3:3.6  are not loveable, only that you have not yet fully recognized your  true Self. Until you fully recognize your Self, you cannot fully love
T3:5.2  you have emptied a space for love to fill. Each time you have felt  true devotion you have emptied a space for love to fill. You have
T3:5.7  of the ego-self and to allow the personal self to live on as the one  true Self, the one true son of God. The gift of redemption was given
T3:5.7  to allow the personal self to live on as the one true Self, the one  true son of God. The gift of redemption was given once and for all.
T3:6.5 While the untrue cannot exist with the  true, what I am calling here bitterness is all that you have forced,
T3:7.4  and the truth is beyond compare. This is the only idea that holds  true meaning and so all meaning is found within it. Thus we start
T3:7.6  many rooms and in some you were even capable of representing your  true Self. This representation of the true Self within the house of
T3:7.6  capable of representing your true Self. This representation of the  true Self within the house of illusion was like an explosion
T3:7.7 In the aftermath of the explosion, the representation of the  true Self settled like dust, and all the attention fell upon it. A
T3:8.9 As the representations of the  true Self within the house of illusion caused explosions and a
T3:8.9  explosions and a fallout of treasure, the representation of the  true Self within the House of Truth will cause the creation of the
T3:10.10  like all the rest of the ego's thought system, was learned. Your  true Self has no cause for uncertainty. Thus you are called, as well,
T3:10.12  and no division. It is the thought system of unity. It is your  true thought system and will be easily remembered once you begin to
T3:10.14  resist unlearning the ego thought system, the thought system of your  true Self will quite simply return to your memory. You will soon
T3:13.3 These temptations will concern you less and less as we uncover their  true meaning by looking beyond the experiences themselves to the
T3:15.2  ideas that things cannot be different than they once were. The only  true departure from this idea has concerned the occasions of birth
T3:16.17  thought system of the truth builds upon itself and forms a real and  true interrelated whole. What forms the House of Truth is love
T3:17.3  is finite to begin and end. Birth and death are all you have seen as  true new beginnings.
T3:17.5  during the time of your experience in physical form. Since your  true Self could not learn the untrue, a new self, which we have
T3:17.5  called the ego-self, was made. Since the ego-self cannot learn the  true, your true Self had to be appealed to for this learning to take
T3:17.5  ego-self, was made. Since the ego-self cannot learn the true, your  true Self had to be appealed to for this learning to take place.
T3:17.6  these stories, the Holy Spirit is always called upon to return the  true Self to the self of illusion. A Holy Spirit is called to return
T3:17.8  return of Christ, or your ability and willingness to live as your  true Self, to live in the House of Truth rather than the house of
T3:19.2  This is no call for judgment upon the physical. How could this be  true when the physical is now called upon to serve the greatest
T3:19.6  and perceived lack. Yet the body has no will and the survival of the  true Self is not based upon it.
T3:19.10  see it not as the source of temptations of the human experience. The  true source of these temptations has been revealed to lie within the
T3:21.7 The only means for the personal self and the  true Self to exist together is for the truth to be lived in time. In
T3:21.17 Now however, you are being called to accept your  true identity even while you retain the form of your personal self.
T3:21.17  even while you retain the form of your personal self. As your  true identity is that of a Self who exists in unity and the identity

T3:22.2 Surely there are already those called to represent not only their  true Selves but this Course to the world. If this had not been the
T3:22.14  of God. What you desire now is the Will of God because it is your  true desire, your will and God's joined as one.
T3:22.17  self. To call forth observance is to call forth the sight of your  true Self. To call forth the sight of your true Self is to call your
T3:22.17  forth the sight of your true Self. To call forth the sight of your  true Self is to call your true Self into observable form. Calling the
T3:22.17  true Self. To call forth the sight of your true Self is to call your  true Self into observable form. Calling the true Self forth into
T3:22.17  Self is to call your true Self into observable form. Calling the  true Self forth into observable form is the end of the old and the
T4:2.7  before. That those who came before did not become aware of their  true nature does not mean that it did not exist; that there are
T4:2.7  living 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
T4:2.8  were to see into the eyes and hearts of any human from any time with  true vision, you would see the accomplished Self there. There can be
T4:2.21  I tell you something else and hope you will remember it and bid it  true. Each day is a creation and holy too. Not one day is meant to be
T4:2.28  all, I could see my brothers and sisters “in Christ” or in their  true nature. I saw them in union and relationship, where they saw
T4:2.31 Examine what you may have felt the onset of  true vision would mean. Have you considered this question? Have you
T4:2.32 All of these things are possible. But  true vision is seeing relationship and union. It is the opposite of
T4:3.4  of love in observable form. This original intent or cause formed the  true nature of the personal self capable of being observed in
T4:3.5  are about is reversing this displacement and returning you to your  true nature.
T4:4.14 This knowing will come from the return of  true vision. True vision sees life-everlasting where perception but
T4:4.14 This knowing will come from the return of true vision.  True vision sees life-everlasting where perception but saw finite
T4:4.16  you must die to the personal self of form in order to be reborn as a  true Self. This is an old way of thinking. Have we not worked
T4:4.16  thinking. Have we not worked throughout this Course to return your  true identity to you now? The joining of heart and mind in
T4:4.16  mind in relationship is the joining of the personal self with the  true Self in the reality in which you exist now. Remember, the heart
T4:4.17 Can you not see the necessity of removing the idea that your  true Self will be returned to you only through death? What purpose
T4:4.18 What purpose will death serve when your  true Self has joined with your physical form? You will see it simply
T4:5.1  of creation and that your fulfillment lies in the acceptance of your  true inheritance.
T4:5.9 The same is  true of you! You cannot express yourself independently of the whole!
T4:5.11  in 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
T4:5.11  chance, just as you are being given the chance now, to choose your  true nature with your free will.
T4:5.12  revelation by God. Think about this now and you will see that it is  true. You hoped to live a good life and at the end of that life to
T4:5.13  determines 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
T4:7.7  you to your Self and the unity of Christ-consciousness. The same is  true of all conditions of all learning everywhere. The conditions are
T4:8.6  happened in the case of human beings, was a disconnect from your own  true nature, which in turn caused a disconnect in your ability to
T4:8.7 The expression of your  true nature should never have been difficult, joyless, or fearful;
T4:8.8 You might ask how, if what I'm saying is  true, could God disconnect from himself? What God could not
T4:8.8  disconnect 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  of 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
T4:8.14  of who you are that you come to know who you are, then this is  true of God as well. God could not be the only being in all of
T4:8.16  all that this was, was a desire to be done with learning, which is a  true desire consistent with your true nature and your purpose here.
T4:8.16  be done with learning, which is a true desire consistent with your  true nature and your purpose here. To learn everything there is to
T4:8.17  you begin to come to know through constant revelation of what is.  True learning has had only one purpose—the purpose of returning you
T4:8.17  only one purpose—the purpose of returning you to awareness of your  true identity. Be done with learning now as you accept who you truly
T4:10.1  has led you through resigning as your own teacher, to becoming a  true student, and to now leading you beyond the time of being a
T4:10.1  You willingly gave up this role and became comfortable in the  true role of learner. You are now asked to be willing to give up the
T4:10.10  unity and relationship the production of unity and relationship and  true meaning will be revealed.
D:1.3  practical terms is that you let the personal self step back and the  true Self step forward. Realize that all of your “concerns” are still
D:1.3  You do not “see” the new, the new Self of elevated form or the  true Self of divine union. You “see” the separated self still
D:1.3  personal self in the stepping back that is required in order for the  true Self to step forward.
D:1.10  transition you have felt yourself to be in. The ego is gone but the  true Self has not been allowed as yet to dwell within the personal
D:1.10  personal self. This elevation occurs through the acceptance of your  true identity, not through being identity-less. The reign of the ego
D:1.11  Be what you have been called to be. Open your dwelling place to your  true Self, your true identity. Imagine this opening and this
D:1.11  been called to be. Open your dwelling place to your true Self, your  true identity. Imagine this opening and this replacement occurring
D:1.13  of light becomes a beacon as you open your heart and allow your  true identity to be what is, even within your form. You are in grace
D:1.23  exists outside or apart from yourself. If you fully accepted your  true identity, you would no longer look outside of yourself for
D:1.24  you. What you are going to find happening, as you accept your  true identity, is a transference of purpose concerning your body.
D:1.26  is not the case. When you fully accept this, you will see that it is  true. Like the acceptance of unity that could not be taught, but was
D:1.26  be taught, but was the condition for learning, acceptance of your  true identity cannot be taught but is the condition necessary for
D:2.1  to take this Course into your heart and let it return you to your  true identity. Those of you who found within this willingness an
D:2.2 To deny is to refuse to accept as  true or right that which you know is not true or right. This is the
D:2.2  is to refuse to accept as true or right that which you know is not  true or right. This is the denial of insanity in favor of the
D:2.2  of sanity, the denial of the false for the acceptance of the  true. Although you are called to these two actions simultaneously—
D:2.6  learning that you have now completed, learning that has revealed the  true nature of who you are, your inability to realize your completion
D:2.15  was learning. The function of all learning was to return you to your  true identity. Because we are working now for the integration of your
D:2.15  identity. Because we are working now for the integration of your  true identity into the self of form, or the elevation of the personal
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
D:3.11  of giving and receiving as one senseless as well. In a way, this is  true. Giving and receiving as one is senseless in terms related to a
D:4.12  possible as well as the patterns that have made your return to your  true identity possible. These patterns are both external and
D:4.16  believing the ego had become an externalized self took you, the  true Self and the true learner, out of the learning loop. Obviously
D:4.16  ego had become an externalized self took you, the true Self and the  true learner, out of the learning loop. Obviously these systems,
D:5.3 What we are doing now is returning the world to its  true representation. As was said in “A Treatise on the Personal
D:5.3  Treatise on the Personal Self”, there is a huge difference between a  true representation and a false representation. While the false
D:5.4 The world without was created as a  true representation of the world within, and as you become aware of
D:5.6  This desire was created to remind you—to point the way—to your  true desire for your true identity as a being joined in oneness. This
D:5.6  to remind you—to point the way—to your true desire for your  true identity as a being joined in oneness. This seeking of
D:5.6  This seeking of completion through oneness, this joining, is a  true representation that shows you that completion does not come of
D:5.8  you are cause and effect. It is through the representation of the  true that the false is exposed as nothing. A lie is nothing but a
D:5.9  as it is the step necessary for the restoration of divine design.  True seeing facilitates the return to what is and we but proceed from
D:5.11  as it was intended and will represent the truth of who you are. This  true representation, being of the truth, returns you to the reality
D:5.19  to find release while still living in form. Thus we begin with the  true content of the form you occupy. We return the form you occupy to
D:6.2  of comparison—I compared the real to the unreal, the false to the  true, fear to love—in order to point out the insanity of your
D:6.2  false representation rather than let them go in order to embrace  true representation. In the time of learning, you were so entrenched
D:6.4  has brought a freedom and a liberation in which you rejoice. Your  true Self is beginning to reveal itself to you in ways of which you
D:6.24  You have replaced the personal self, the self of learning, with the  true Self. You have accepted your true identity. How could the body
D:6.24  the self of learning, with the true Self. You have accepted your  true identity. How could the body now be the same as it once was?
D:6.25  life span of the human being, but you increased not its capacity for  true living or true learning. And with the extended life span came
D:6.25  human being, but you increased not its capacity for true living or  true learning. And with the extended life span came extended reasons
D:6.26 The body is now the embodiment of the  true Self, the embodiment of love, the embodiment of divinity. Its
D:6.27  All of Everything that is the natural state of the formless. But the  true Self cannot cease to experience its natural state, the state of
D:6.27  unity, are both in existence right now. In the state of unity, your  true Self is fully aware of the elevated Self of form and is fully
D:6.27  that still exists in time, must realize the consciousness of the  true Self in time. What this means is that the elevated Self of form
D:7.12  as remembrance. Remembrance was necessary for your return to your  true identity, the Self as it was created. Remembrance was not about
D:8.2  first mentioned, and yet it seems too impossible, too “good” to be  true. You are too used to thinking of yourself as a learning being to
D:8.10  that comes from any place other than wholeheartedness is not the  true Self or the true expression of the Self but the self-expression
D:8.10  any place other than wholeheartedness is not the true Self or the  true expression of the Self but the self-expression that arises from
D:8.10  separation is still valuable, as it is a sign of yearning toward the  true Self and the true expression of the Self. Thus where you have
D:8.10  valuable, as it is a sign of yearning toward the true Self and the  true expression of the Self. Thus where you have desired to express
D:9.5  this was an accurate and truthful way of expressing what was  true for you as a learning being.
D:9.8  still a learning being were meant to allow you to come to know your  true identity. “A Treatise on the Art of Thought” was but a
D:9.9 The same is  true of the beliefs set forth in “A Treatise on the Nature of Unity
D:10.4  the work of the Self of union, the work that can fill you with the  true joy of true accomplishment, because it is your real work—work
D:10.4  the Self of union, the work that can fill you with the true joy of  true accomplishment, because it is your real work—work with what is.
D:10.7 In this time of Christ, discovery is about acceptance of your  true way of knowing, a way that existed prior to the time of learning
D:11.2  that differentiate you from others. Do you think the same is  true of you and me? It is that you think that differentiates you from
D:11.4  I said that you give and you receive from the well of spirit.  True giving and receiving is of unity. True giving and receiving is
D:11.4  from the well of spirit. True giving and receiving is of unity.  True giving and receiving is not of the separated thought of the
D:11.10  heart for answers. Yet your heart is the well of spirit from which  true answers are drawn. Your heart is a full well, a wellspring from
D:12.8 —to become a means of communication and exchange. The same is  true of the “thoughts” these words symbolize. Thus we continue to
D:12.11  descriptive of the ego mind; thoughts are more descriptive of the  true mind. I am not saying that your ego is still at work because you
D:12.11  does not serve you, you do have, right now, and have always had,  true thoughts that come to you from your Self, the Self joined in
D:12.14  used to—thoughts that you know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, are  true or right or accurate. They may be simple thoughts about a
D:12.15  authority of the truth simply because you have known that they are  true, and because you realized, as soon as the truth came into your
D:12.16  throughout this Course—that all doubt is doubt about yourself—is  true. If another challenges you, or if your own thinking challenges
D:12.17  that what I have said about your way of thinking being insane is  true. You think it is perfectly sane to go through life without
D:12.17  without knowing anything with certainty, when the reverse is what is  true. It is sane to know the truth. It is insane not to know the
D:14.5  as, “While I realize that the facts would tell me this or that is  true, I wonder what would happen if I disregarded the facts and was
D:15.11  all that is real. What is real is but another way of saying what is  true. What is true is eternal life, not temporal life. There are no
D:15.11  What is real is but another way of saying what is true. What is  true is eternal life, not temporal life. There are no degrees of
D:16.2  each of us, seemingly one at a time. Creation is our coming into our  true identity, and is the extension or expression of that identity
D:16.21 This image, being but an image, is incapable of  true joining in relationship. You must be fully present in order to

D:Day3.25  did not learn in order to demonstrate that what you learned is not  true. What you learned is insane. But to realize the truth you must

D:Day3.40  is comprised of the mind and heart joined in unity. It would be more  true to think of this joining as creating a portal of access, a new
D:Day3.42  which your wants find provision. It is the world of unity, the  true reality, through which your desires are responded to. This does
D:Day3.47  from somewhere else. This somewhere else we have defined as your  true reality, the reality of union. Living in this reality, the

D:Day4.7  ideas about what it means to think. In evolutionary terms this was  true as well. Despite the creation story that symbolizes man's
D:Day4.25  did not try hard enough, or pay enough attention to separating the  true from the false. But blaming yourself does no more good than
D:Day4.37  where your imagination is capable of taking you. It is a desire for  true discovery, a desire to access the previously unknown.

C:19.16  thought or know without words are ideas quite foreign to you, and  truly, while you remain here, even experiences beyond thoughts and
C:19.24  knowledge. Knowledge is light, and the only light in which you can  truly see. You will not truly desire to unite your mind and heart in

C:26.17  disappointing to you, but it is all that is required. If you could  truly succeed at doing this for one instant, you would experience all

C:31.17 My dear brothers and sisters, what you  truly are cannot be improved upon. But because you are in a state of
C:31.18  believing forgiveness is something that they do not deserve. Few  truly believe in atonement or undoing. Few truly believe there is no
C:31.18  they do not deserve. Few truly believe in atonement or undoing. Few  truly believe there is no sin. Few truly believe that they are not
C:31.18  in atonement or undoing. Few truly believe there is no sin. Few  truly believe that they are not the sum of their behaviors. How,

C:31.33  from you, and you seek the truth, or salvation from them, what is  truly occurring? How can this work? This is but another aspect of
C:32.1  Thus look not at the form in which a teacher arrives. It can  truly be said that all of life is your teacher. There is not one

T1:3.5  you begin to live as if the truth were otherwise can you see that it  truly is otherwise, or based on a wisdom other than what has come
T1:5.9  captive. Thus, your real Self is not present in the realm of the  truly real, but is actually present within the illusion. This is why
T1:7.1  condition of suffering is as the perceived inability to be who you  truly are, a being existing in union. Take away all, for the moment,
T1:10.10  the Peace of God. But look past what you have remembered to what was  truly there. No moment of true learning ever arrived without the
T2:1.6  place in the sense that you have imagined it. Even rest, once  truly learned, is simply rest. It is not a resting place, a place to
T2:1.6  It is not a point at which you arrive, never to depart. Rest, when  truly learned, is a state of being in which struggle has ceased and

T4:2.15  the 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
T4:2.29  called to see without judgment. To see without judgment is to see  truly. You need not look for good or bad, but only need be steadily
T4:3.10  you to see the nature of the world and all that exists within it  truly. Observation will allow you to elevate the personal self to its
T4:5.10  for Christ-consciousness, to make the choice to be aware of who you  truly are. To know your Self as my brother or sister in Christ; to be
T4:5.13  Many of you have thought of it as a time of judgment. But I tell you  truly; it is no different than the time that is upon you right now.
T4:8.17  your true identity. Be done with learning now as you accept who you  truly are.
T4:12.25  to the dawning of the consciousness of unity. Realize that it is a  truly new state, a state that cannot be learned, a state the
D:1.21  that has sought to teach the truth. In order for the truth to be  truly learned, you first had to enter a state in which this learning

D:3.8  These are really not new ideas, however, but rather ideas of who you  truly are birthed within the self of form so that the Self and the
D:3.9 Ideas of who you  truly are, birthed by the wholehearted self in union with all, are
D:5.2  distortions occurred as you assigned meaning or “truth” to things,  truly believing in your ability to do so. You thus determined what
D:5.7  produce the desired effect of creating desire for oneness if you  truly saw and understood the body and its acts as representative of
D:5.7  represent what was given to help you remember and return to who you  truly are.
D:5.12  body's eyes will not be all that is but will represent all that is  truly.

D:6.4  ego as the self, the body, given your choice to return to who you  truly are while still in form, continues, while the ego, of course,

D:7.2  aspect of creation and thus of the state of union in which you  truly abide.
D:7.9  only aspects of wholeness you have not seen content nor matter  truly. You have not been aware of all that you are. You are thus now
D:7.16  until your vision is released from old patterns and guides you more  truly.
D:8.2  You are too used to thinking of yourself as a learning being to  truly experience the freedom of not being bound by this constraint.
D:9.3  defined and acted upon, would fulfill you, allow you to be who you  truly are, end your confusion, and give you peace to usher in the new.
D:10.3  state of these givens that allows expression of what is given to  truly come through you and express the Self, because joyous

D:13.8  thoughts, and with the idea that no one will ever be able to  truly know you. But join with others who are experiencing the
D:13.8  the evidence to the contrary will be overwhelming. You will begin to  truly understand that you are not alone and separate, and that even

D:17.23  question, but even the specific questions of myth, when seen  truly, were questions of the heart, calling only for response from
D:Day3.1  in both an old and a new way. Let me suggest to you what it is  truly all about. It is about the way you have learned and your lack
D:Day3.6  but be aware of your feelings as we proceed, for I tell you  truly, here is where your greatest anger, and your greatest lack of
D:Day3.13  then that.” The idea of abundance earned. The idea of nothing being  truly free. Not you, and not your gifts. Everything coming with a
D:Day3.22  is contingent upon having the “means” to pursue it, and few of you  truly think that money would not solve most of your problems. Even
D:Day3.29  you have learned the secret of money, the secret of success: Answer  truly if you really believe this, or if you are merely covering over
D:Day4.44  misery you have known and the beginning of new life. And I tell you  truly, here is where this new life either begins or is once again
D:Day4.49  only to learn and learning will not transform you. If you do not  truly and wholeheartedly desire this choice, if you do not truly and

D:Day6.2  focus of our time together, few, if any of you, feel as if you have  truly taken leave of the everyday world of your “normal” existence
D:Day6.14  spoken of in our conversations would be there if only you could be  truly “taken away” from it all and experience nothing but our
D:Day6.21 This place within is what we are creating here. It is a  truly elevated place. It is as real as a mountain top, in fact much
D:Day6.32  and so you will soon see that the difficulty of the time of learning  truly is behind you.
D:Day8.4  only then—when you have accepted how you feel—can you respond  truly. Only when you have accepted how you feel do you quit labeling
D:Day8.9  not to participate, judge, or appear to accept that which you do not  truly find acceptable.
D:Day8.11 This acceptance is the only thing that will  truly prevent judgment, for it does not require you to be your
D:Day8.21  time and begin to be aware of your natural ability to respond  truly because you have accepted your feelings in present time. This
D:Day10.19  the voice of your own true consciousness, the consciousness that we  truly share. I came to you in the form of the consciousness of the

D:Day18.9  for a functioning body, mind and heart in separation could not  truly exist and allow for a functioning state of life or

D:Day29.3  to wholeness—to who you truly are—in the reality in which you  truly exist.
D:Day32.15  if separation had severed relationship, then separation would  truly exist. Each entity or being would be singular and alone. Yet
D:Day33.8 How, then, do you respond? If you respond as who you  truly are, you respond with love. Love is the only response.
D:Day35.20  called upon to create as you have been, but to create as who you  truly are being. You are called to nothing short of creating a new

Tx:1.20  the awareness that the spirit, not the body, is the altar of  truth. This is the recognition that leads to the healing power of the

Tx:1.94  by ordinary means because he is more consistent in his own denial of  truth. The miracle, however, makes no such distinctions. It corrects
Tx:2.5  it is in man's ability to put his own ideas there instead of  truth.
Tx:2.16  among misperceptions. Its sole concern is to distinguish between  truth on the one hand and all kinds of errors on the other. Some
Tx:2.22 Denial of error is a powerful defense of  truth. You will note that we have been shifting the emphasis from the

Tx:2.23  one of true projection; I can project to you the affirmation of  truth. If you project error to me or to yourself, you are interfering
Tx:2.25  directed only to error, and projection should be reserved only for  truth. You should truly give as you have truly received. The Golden
Tx:2.34  main point to be understood from this section is that you can defend  truth as well as error and, in fact, much better.
Tx:2.49  right defense, It passes over all others, looking past error to  truth. Because of the real strength of Its vision, It pulls the
Tx:2.65  confusion of others. The message he then gives to others is the  truth that their minds are similarly constructive and that their
Tx:2.73  responsible for what you do but not for what you think. The  truth is that you are responsible for what you think because it is
Tx:2.74  comes from what you think. You cannot separate yourself from the  truth by “giving” autonomy to behavior. This is controlled by me
Tx:2.89  to the power of thought, they still come nowhere near the  truth. You do not expect to grow when you say it, because you do not

Tx:3.18 The Resurrection demonstrated that nothing can destroy  truth. Good can withstand any form of evil because light abolishes
Tx:3.23  and only the mind can perceive anything. A pure mind knows the  truth, and this is its strength. It cannot attack the body because
Tx:3.26  some [of everything]. This makes everyone really unable to deny  truth totally, even if he generally deceives himself in this
Tx:3.28 The miracle perceives everything as it is. If nothing but the  truth exists (and this is really a redundant statement, because what
Tx:3.29  true in everything you perceive, you will make it true for you.  Truth overcomes all error. This means that if you perceive truly,
Tx:3.29  see them as they are, you offer them your own validation of their  truth. This is the healing which the miracle actively fosters.
Tx:3.31  is the basis for knowledge, but knowing is the affirmation of  truth. All your difficulties ultimately stem from the fact that you

Tx:3.47  darkness merely by establishing the fact that it is not there. The  truth will always overcome error in this sense. This is not an
Tx:3.48  remain in surety, and therefore know that no miscreation exists.  Truth cannot deal with unwilling error because it does not will to be
Tx:3.55  knowledge. Knowledge does not require ingenuity. When we say “the  truth shall set you free,” we mean that all this kind of thinking is
Tx:3.58  is nothing but perfect equality? Perception becomes impossible.  Truth can only be known. All of it is equally true, and knowing any
Tx:3.60  have not totally accepted the Atonement and given themselves over to  truth. Perception is a separated state, and a perceiver does need
Tx:3.78  But know that this making will surely dissolve in the light of  truth, because its foundation is a lie.
Tx:3.79  be shaken because the light is in it. Your starting point is  truth, and you must return to this beginning. Much has been perceived
Tx:3.80  authority problem meaningful. The world is not left by death but by  truth, and truth can be known by all those for whom the Kingdom was
Tx:3.80  problem meaningful. The world is not left by death but by truth, and  truth can be known by all those for whom the Kingdom was created
Tx:4.55  what is not true and then protect this belief at the cost of  truth?
Tx:4.65 You are mirrors of  truth in which God Himself shines in perfect light. To the ego's dark
Tx:5.11  before of the higher or the “true” perception, which is so close to  truth that God Himself can flow across the little gap. Knowledge is
Tx:5.43  Correct and learn and be open to learning. You have not made  truth, but truth can still set you free. Look as the Holy Spirit
Tx:5.43  and learn and be open to learning. You have not made truth, but  truth can still set you free. Look as the Holy Spirit looks, and
Tx:5.46  as fearful and teach you that only what is loving is true.  Truth is beyond your ability to destroy but entirely within your
Tx:6.9  salvation. Rather, teach your own perfect immunity, which is the  truth in you, and know that it cannot be assailed. Do not protect
Tx:6.13  and that is the only way in which I can be perceived as the Way, the  Truth, and the Light.
Tx:6.30  but a fact. Anything that God create[s] is as true as He is. Its  truth lies only in its perfect inclusion in Him, Who alone is
Tx:6.43  of everything the ego believes. This is how you will learn the  truth that will set you free and keep you so, as others learn it of
Tx:6.50  you were asleep and did not know. When you awake, you will see the  truth around you and in you, and you will no longer believe in dreams
Tx:6.55  that you have sinned? If He confronted the self you made with the  truth He created for you, what could you be but afraid? You would
Tx:6.71  believe you are. If the center of the thought system is true, only  truth extends from it. But if a lie is at its center, only
Tx:6.76  to decide which voice is true, but the Holy Spirit teaches you that  truth was created by God, and your decision cannot change it. As
Tx:6.82  to strengthen the Kingdom in you. What is partly in accord with  truth, He accepts and purifies. But what is out of accord entirely,
Tx:6.93  Certainty is of God for you. Vigilance is not necessary for  truth, but it is necessary against illusions.
Tx:6.94  Truth is without illusions and therefore within the Kingdom.
Tx:6.94  outside the Kingdom is illusion, but you must learn to accept  truth, because you threw it away. You therefore saw yourself as if
Tx:7.16  God's law of Creation in perfect form does not involve the use of  truth to convince His Sons of truth. The extension of truth,
Tx:7.16  form does not involve the use of truth to convince His Sons of  truth. The extension of truth, which is the law of the Kingdom,
Tx:7.16  use of truth to convince His Sons of truth. The extension of  truth, which is the law of the Kingdom, rests only on the knowledge
Tx:7.16  is the law of the Kingdom, rests only on the knowledge of what  truth is. This is your inheritance and requires no learning at all,
Tx:7.25  situation. Because I am always with you, you are the way and the  truth and the light. You did not make this power, any more than I
Tx:7.33  Truth can only be recognized and need only be recognized.
Tx:7.38  truly, and they can operate only truly since they are the laws of  Truth. But seek this only because you can find nothing else.
Tx:7.49  out of fear but which you will never love. The other shows you only  truth, which you will love, because you will understand it.
Tx:7.52  perceive only what is true. Come therefore unto me and learn of the  truth in you. The mind we share is shared by all our brothers, and
Tx:7.63 The ego wants no part of  truth, because the truth is that the ego is not true. If truth is
Tx:7.63 The ego wants no part of truth, because the  truth is that the ego is not true. If truth is total, the untrue
Tx:7.63  part of truth, because the truth is that the ego is not true. If  truth is total, the untrue cannot exist. Commitment to either must
Tx:7.63  you believe that two totally contradictory thought systems share  truth, your need for vigilance is apparent. Your minds are dividing
Tx:7.89 The Holy Spirit will teach you to perceive beyond belief, because  truth is beyond belief, and His perception is true. The ego can
Tx:7.91  it were the part that is being sided against. To the Soul, this is  truth, because it knows its fullness and cannot conceive of any part
Tx:7.95  what it adds is true. Insanity is therefore the non-extension of  truth, which blocks joy because it blocks creation and thus blocks
Tx:7.96  done so. Disobeying God's Will is meaningful only to the insane. In  truth it is impossible. Your self-fullness is as boundless as God's.
Tx:7.100  a logical outcome depends on the willingness to see it, but its  truth has nothing to do with your willingness at all. Truth is
Tx:7.100  it, but its truth has nothing to do with your willingness at all.  Truth is God's Will. Share His Will, and you share what He knows.

Tx:7.111  what He has given you. Nothing is as easy to perceive as  truth. This is the perception which is immediate, clear, and natural.
Tx:7.111  you. Out of your natural environment, you may well ask, “What is  truth?” since truth is the environment by which and for which you
Tx:7.111  your natural environment, you may well ask, “What is truth?” since  truth is the environment by which and for which you were created.
Tx:7.112  yours and that of God, Who created you. You cannot deny part of  truth. You do not know your creations, because you do not know their
Tx:8.35  It is as bereft as you are. No part of It can be imprisoned if Its  truth is to be known. Can you be separated from your identification
Tx:8.35  is not a solution; it is a delusion. The delusional believe that  truth will assail them, and so they do not see it, because they
Tx:8.35  so they do not see it, because they prefer the delusion. Judging  truth as something they do not want, they perceive deception and
Tx:8.38  only the recognition of His power in you, but in that lies all  truth. As we unite, we unite with Him. Glory be to the union of God
Tx:8.39  union is therefore the way to renounce the ego in yourself. The  truth in both of us is beyond the ego. By willing that, you have
Tx:8.39  beyond the ego. By willing that, you have gone beyond it toward  truth. Our success in transcending the ego is guaranteed by God, and
Tx:8.51  It is a journey without distance to a goal that has never changed.  Truth can only be experienced. It cannot be described, and it
Tx:8.51  it cannot be explained. I can make you aware of the conditions of  truth, but the experience is of God. Together we can meet its
Tx:8.51  the experience is of God. Together we can meet its conditions, but  truth will dawn upon you of itself.
Tx:8.56  you will not see anything physical except as what it is. Use it for  truth, and you will see it truly. Misuse it, and you will
Tx:8.76  meaningless, there is no point in considering them. The function of  truth is to collect data which are true. There is no point in
Tx:8.78  to listen until you will not to tolerate anything except  truth. When you lay the ego aside, it will be gone. The Holy
Tx:8.90  anything except illusions, since reality can only uphold  truth. The very fact that the Will of God, which is what you are,
Tx:8.92 The association of  truth and fear, which would be highly artificial at most, is
Tx:8.92  inappropriate in the minds of those who do not know what  truth is. All that this kind of association means is that you are
Tx:8.96  this gives you the illusion of safety. Yet you cannot be safe from  truth but only in it. Reality is the only safety. Your will is
Tx:8.98  is inevitable, attempts to teach himself to like it. The  truth is, very simply, that no one wants either abandonment or
Tx:8.99  recognition that his will and God's are one. In the presence of  truth, there are no unbelievers and no sacrifices. In the
Tx:8.101  recognize the enormous waste of energy which you expend in denying  truth. What would you say of someone who persisted in attempting the
Tx:8.105  When you feel these things, do not try to look beyond yourself for  truth, for truth can only be within you. Say, therefore,
Tx:8.105  these things, do not try to look beyond yourself for truth, for  truth can only be within you. Say, therefore,
Tx:8.110  and doubt your brother? Believe his words are true because of the  truth which is in him. You will unite with the truth in him, and
Tx:8.110  true because of the truth which is in him. You will unite with the  truth in him, and his words will be true. As you hear him, you
Tx:8.110  be true. As you hear him, you will hear me. Listening to  truth is the only way you can hear it now and finally know it.
Tx:8.111  to you through him. What can so holy a brother tell you except  truth? But are you listening to it? Your brother may not know who
Tx:8.113 I love you for the  truth in you, as God does. Your deceptions may deceive you, but
Tx:8.113  in everyone. Do not listen to anything else, or you will not hear  truth.
Tx:8.114  of what God gave them. They will answer you if you learn to ask  truth of them. Do not ask for blessings without blessing them, for
Tx:8.114  blessed you are. By following this way, you are looking for the  truth in you. This is not going beyond yourself but toward
Tx:9.6  but merely to accept him as he is. His errors do not come from the  truth that is in him, and only this truth is yours. His errors cannot
Tx:9.6  His errors do not come from the truth that is in him, and only this  truth is yours. His errors cannot change this and can have no effect
Tx:9.6  His errors cannot change this and can have no effect at all on the  truth in you. To perceive errors in anyone and to react to them as
Tx:9.7  yourself. If you would find your way and keep it, see only  truth beside you, for you walk together. The Holy Spirit in you
Tx:9.19  of us. Only this awareness heals, because it is the awareness of  truth.
Tx:9.21  them make them real? Every healer who searches fantasies for  truth must be unhealed, because he does not know where to look
Tx:9.21  must be unhealed, because he does not know where to look for  truth and therefore does not have the answer to the problem of
Tx:9.47 Remember this when the ego speaks, and you will not hear it. The  truth about you is so lofty that nothing unworthy of God is worthy of
Tx:9.54  Truth and littleness are denials of each other, because grandeur
Tx:9.54  and littleness are denials of each other, because grandeur is  truth. Truth does not vacillate; it is always true. When grandeur
Tx:9.54  littleness are denials of each other, because grandeur is truth.  Truth does not vacillate; it is always true. When grandeur slips
Tx:9.55  therefore will deprive you of your true witnesses to your reality.  Truth is not obscure nor hidden, but its obviousness to you lies in
Tx:9.58 Yet if  truth is indivisible, your evaluation of yourself must be God's.
Tx:9.67  and be glad. Dreams will be impossible, because you will want only  truth, and being at last your will, it will be yours.
Tx:9.68  be fearful, but only because the dissociation was an attack on  truth. You are fearful because you have forgotten. And you have
Tx:9.70  again what has been made but was rejected. The ability to accept  truth in this world is the perceptual counterpart of creating in the
Tx:9.71  that the misuse of defenses always constitutes an attack on  truth and truth is God, you will realize why this is always
Tx:9.71  the misuse of defenses always constitutes an attack on truth and  truth is God, you will realize why this is always fearful. If you
Tx:9.77  forgotten. Your recognition of him as part of God teaches him the  truth about himself, which he is denying. Would you strengthen his
Tx:9.86  it go. Knowledge cannot dawn on a mind full of illusions because  truth and illusions are irreconcilable. Truth is whole and cannot
Tx:9.86  full of illusions because truth and illusions are irreconcilable.  Truth is whole and cannot be known by part of a mind.
Tx:9.90  you attempt to interpose between yourself and your reality affect  truth at all. Peace is yours because God created you. And He created
Tx:10.17  it, the better teacher and learner you become. If you have denied  truth, what better witnesses to its reality could you have than those
Tx:10.39  be very calm in doing this, for we are merely looking honestly for  truth. The “dynamics” of the ego will be our lesson for a while, for
Tx:10.39  will undo this error quietly together and then look beyond it to  truth.
Tx:10.41  The ego is fearful to you because you believe this. Yet the  truth is very simple:
Tx:10.49  denied yourself. By believing that you have successfully attacked  truth, you are believing that attack has power. Very simply, then,
Tx:10.54  reasoning concludes that, because of the mistake, consistent  truth must be meaningless. The next step, then, is obvious. If
Tx:10.54  must be meaningless. The next step, then, is obvious. If consistent  truth is meaningless, inconsistency must be true if truth has
Tx:10.54  If consistent truth is meaningless, inconsistency must be true if  truth has meaning. Holding error clearly in mind and protecting what
Tx:10.56  by it must be deluded. Can the ego teach truly when it overlooks  truth? Can it perceive what it has denied? Its witnesses do
Tx:10.57  be. Accept what God does not deny, and He will demonstrate its  truth. The witnesses for God stand in His light and behold what He
Tx:10.71  reality. For perceptions cannot be partly true. If you believe in  truth and illusion, you cannot tell which is true. To establish
Tx:10.72  your Creator, and these beliefs are the world as you perceive it.  Truth is not absent here, but it is obscure. You do not know the
Tx:10.77 No one can withhold  truth except from himself. Yet God will not refuse the answer He
Tx:10.77  but which you did not make, and do not defend yourself against  truth. You made the problem which God has answered. Ask yourselves,
Tx:10.83 Blessed are you who will ask the  truth of God without fear, for only thus can you learn that His
Tx:10.83  deceive you? The Kingdom of Heaven is within you. Believe that the  truth is in me, for I know that it is in you. God's Sons have
Tx:10.83  in you. God's Sons have nothing which they do not share. Ask for  truth of any Son of God, and you have asked it of me. No one of us
Tx:10.89  truly, they are not afraid. And because of this, they will ask for  truth again when they are frightened. It is not the reality of your
Tx:10.90 Would you not exchange your fears for  truth if the exchange is yours for the asking? For if God is not
Tx:10.90  you, you can be deceived only in yourself. Yet you can learn the  truth of yourself of the Holy Spirit, who will teach you that, as
Tx:11.1  error, you would have to make it real because it is not true. But  truth is real in its own right, and to believe in truth, you do not
Tx:11.1  is not true. But truth is real in its own right, and to believe in  truth, you do not have to do anything. Understand that you do not
Tx:11.1  error is to give it power, and having done this, you will overlook  truth.
Tx:11.5  No one with a personal investment is a reliable witness, for  truth to him has become what he wants it to be. If you are
Tx:11.8  recognize God's answer as you want it to be, and if you want it in  truth, it will be truly yours. Every appeal you answer in the name of
Tx:11.9  the need for escape. The Holy Spirit must still translate it into  truth. If you were left with the fear, having recognized it, you
Tx:11.13  interpretation of fear does dispel it, for the awareness of  truth cannot be denied. Thus does the Holy Spirit replace fear with
Tx:11.13  does the Holy Spirit replace fear with love and translate error into  truth. And thus will you learn of Him how to replace your dream of
Tx:11.14 Miracles are merely the translation of denial into  truth. If to love oneself is to heal oneself, those who are sick do
Tx:11.14  heal them but which they are denying to themselves. If they knew the  truth about themselves, they could not be sick. The task of the
Tx:11.14  deny the denial of truth. The sick must heal themselves, for the  truth is in them. Yet, having obscured it, the light in another
Tx:11.21  deny the denial of perfection is not so difficult as the denial of  truth, and what we can accomplish together must be believed when
Tx:11.35  your perceptions of the world to this altar, for it is the altar to  truth. There you will see your vision changed, and there you will
Tx:11.73  within and see me, it will be because you have decided to manifest  truth. And as you manifest it, you will see it both without and
Tx:11.80  everything you see. For what you have made invisible is the only  truth, and what you have not heard is the only answer. God would
Tx:11.82  your perception is healed. You have made the invisible the only  truth that this world holds. Valuing nothing, you have sought nothing
Tx:11.82  much distance you have tried to interpose between your awareness and  truth. God's Son can be seen because his vision is shared. The Holy
Tx:11.97  is therefore God's way of reminding you of His Son and what he is in  truth. For God has never condemned His Son, and being guiltless, he
Tx:12.4  we must look upon calmly, for the ego cannot protect you against  truth, and in its presence the ego is dispelled.
Tx:12.5 In the calm light of  truth, let us recognize that you believe you have crucified God's
Tx:12.8  the depth of your fear. For you believe that in the presence of  truth you will turn on yourself and destroy yourself.
Tx:12.18  the Father in loving remembrance of Him. You will find this place of  truth as you see it in your brothers, for though they may deceive
Tx:12.44  as the Holy Spirit sees them. And with this vision of the  truth in them came all the beauty of the world to shine upon them.
Tx:12.49  Let no dark cloud out of your past obscure him from you, for  truth lies only in the present, and you will find it if you seek it
Tx:12.51  on you because you called them forth. And they will not deny the  truth in you because you looked for it in them and found it there.
Tx:12.56  laws of love of your free will and out of quiet recognition of the  truth in them. The attraction of light must draw you willingly, and
Tx:13.16 See no one, then, as guilty, and you will affirm the  truth of guiltlessness unto yourself. In every condemnation that
Tx:13.19  you. He does not value you as you do. He knows Himself and knows the  truth in you. He knows there is no difference, for He knows not
Tx:13.28  purity in which you were created. Fear not to look upon the lovely  truth in you. Look through the cloud of guilt that dims your
Tx:13.40  find the answer that makes the need for any differences disappear.  Truth comes of its own will unto its own. When you have learned that
Tx:13.40  own will unto its own. When you have learned that you belong to  truth, it will flow lightly over you without a difference of any
Tx:13.45  learned that teaches you what is not true must be reconciled with  truth. This is the reconciliation which the ego would substitute for
Tx:13.46  not remember what has always been? It is this reconciliation with  truth, and only truth, in which the peace of Heaven lies.
Tx:13.46  has always been? It is this reconciliation with truth, and only  truth, in which the peace of Heaven lies.
Tx:13.47  the Holy Spirit teaches you the simple conclusions that speak for  truth and only truth.
Tx:13.47  teaches you the simple conclusions that speak for truth and only  truth.
Tx:13.49  have to do if it had been done unto you? Indirect proof of  truth is needed in a world made of denial and without direction. You
Tx:13.50  your thought system is closed off and wholly separated from the  truth. This is an insane world, and do not underestimate the actual
Tx:13.51  those he made are his beliefs. And it is these, and not the  truth, that he has chosen to defend and love. They will not be taken
Tx:13.53  His message is not indirect, but He must introduce the simple  truth into a thought system which has become so twisted and so
Tx:13.56  you have 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
Tx:13.58 The  truth is true. Nothing else matters, nothing else is real, and
Tx:13.58  it belongs. You will find no deception there but only the simple  truth. And you will love it because you will understand it.
Tx:13.59 Like you, the Holy Spirit did not make  truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He brings the light of
Tx:13.59  truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He brings the light of  truth into the darkness and lets it shine on you. And as it shines,
Tx:13.60 When you teach anyone that  truth is true, you learn it with him. And so you learn that what
Tx:13.61  the joyous lessons that come quickly on the firm foundation that  truth is true. For what is builded there is true and built on
Tx:13.61  truth is true. For what is builded there is true and built on  truth. The universe of learning will open up before you in all its
Tx:13.61  will open up before you in all its gracious simplicity. With  truth before you, you will not look back.
Tx:13.62  free you from the past and open up the way to freedom for you. For  truth is true. What else could ever be or ever was? This simple
Tx:13.63  that you will realize it is impossible to deny the simple  truth. For there is nothing else. God is everywhere, and His Son is
Tx:13.68  decide between is fixed because there are no alternatives except  truth and illusion. And there is no overlap between them because they
Tx:13.76 Would you deny the  truth of God's decision and place your pitiful appraisal of yourself
Tx:13.86  is your Atonement. Grant it to him, and you will see the  truth of what you have acknowledged. Yet truth is offered first to
Tx:13.86  him, and you will see the truth of what you have acknowledged. Yet  truth is offered first to be received, even as God gave it first to
Tx:13.88 When you have let all that obscured the  truth in your most holy mind be undone for you and stand in grace
Tx:13.91  awaking gladly to His love and holiness, which join together as the  truth in you, making you one with Him.
Tx:14.19  shines guilt away because, when they are brought together, the  truth of one must make the falsity of its opposite perfectly clear.
Tx:14.24  are. In union, everything that is not real must disappear, for  truth is union. As darkness disappears in light, so ignorance fades
Tx:14.24  the messenger of ignorance rather than a helper in the search for  truth.
Tx:14.25 The search for  truth is but the honest searching out of everything that interferes
Tx:14.25  is but the honest searching out of everything that interferes with  truth. Truth is. It can be neither lost nor sought nor found. It is
Tx:14.25  the honest searching out of everything that interferes with truth.  Truth is. It can be neither lost nor sought nor found. It is there,
Tx:14.25  of fear on which you have erected your insane system of belief, the  truth lies hidden. Yet you cannot know this, for by hiding truth in
Tx:14.25  the truth lies hidden. Yet you cannot know this, for by hiding  truth in fear, you see no reason to believe the more you look at

Tx:14.38  or what you made to what you are. The bringing together of  truth and illusion, of the ego to God, is the Holy Spirit's only
Tx:14.38  of timelessness lay in the decision to be not as you were. Thus,  truth was made past, and the present was dedicated to illusion. And

Tx:16.15  accepting it for what it is and giving thanks for it? Honor the  truth that has been given you, and be glad you do not understand it.

Tx:17.5  and learn what truth means from the perspective of illusions?  Truth has no meaning in illusion. The frame of reference for its

Tx:17.36 That is why the holy instant is so important in the defense of  truth. The truth itself needs no defense, but you do need defense
Tx:17.36  is why the holy instant is so important in the defense of truth. The  truth itself needs no defense, but you do need defense against
Tx:17.36  against your own acceptance of the gift of death. When you who are  truth accept an idea so dangerous to truth, you threaten truth with
Tx:17.36  of death. When you who are truth accept an idea so dangerous to  truth, you threaten truth with destruction. And your defense must now

Tx:17.61  truth has further practical advantages. If the situation is used for  truth and sanity, its outcome must be peace. And this is quite

Tx:17.61  sanity and cannot be without them, where peace is they must be.  Truth comes of itself. If you experience peace, it is because the
Tx:17.61  Truth comes of itself. If you experience peace, it is because the  truth has come to you, and you will see the outcome truly, for
Tx:17.62 The goal of  truth requires faith. Faith is implicit in the acceptance of the Holy
Tx:17.62  Spirit's purpose, and this faith is all-inclusive. Where the goal of  truth is set, there faith must be. The Holy Spirit sees the
Tx:17.63  this attempt conflicts with unity and must obscure the goal of  truth. And peace will not be experienced except in fantasy. Truth has
Tx:17.63  goal of truth. And peace will not be experienced except in fantasy.  Truth has not come because faith has been denied, being withheld from
Tx:17.63  Thus do you lose the understanding of the situation the goal of  truth would bring. For fantasy solutions bring but the illusion of
Tx:17.63  and the illusion of peace is not the condition in which the  truth can enter.
Tx:17.65  the thoughts are judged to be in conflict. But if the goal is  truth, this is impossible. Some idea of bodies must have entered, for
Tx:17.66  not matter. Faithlessness brought to faith will never interfere with  truth. But faithlessness used against truth will always destroy
Tx:17.66  will never interfere with truth. But faithlessness used against  truth will always destroy faith. If you lack faith, ask that it be
Tx:17.69 The goal of illusion is as closely tied to faithlessness as faith to  truth. If you lack faith in anyone to fulfill, and perfectly, his
Tx:17.69  and perfectly, his part in any situation dedicated in advance to  truth, your dedication is divided. And so you have been faithless
Tx:17.71  is. What never was is causeless and is not there to interfere with  truth. There is no cause for faithlessness, but there is a Cause
Tx:17.71  has entered any situation which shares Its purpose. The light of  truth shines from the center of the situation and touches everyone to

Tx:17.73  the Holy Spirit's goal are set apart from loneliness because the  truth has come. Its call for faith is strong. Use not your
Tx:17.74  withheld and left unused, that faith might answer to the call of  truth. The holy instant is the shining example, the clear and
Tx:17.75 This simple courtesy is all the Holy Spirit asks of you. Let  truth be what it is. Do not intrude upon it, do not attack it, do not
Tx:17.75  situation 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
Tx:17.76  faith can no longer be withheld. The strain of refusing faith to  truth is enormous and far greater than you realize. But to answer
Tx:17.76  to truth is enormous and far greater than you realize. But to answer  truth with faith entails no strain at all.
Tx:17.77  was nothing but the intolerable strain of refusing to give faith to  truth and see its evident reality.
Tx:17.79 When you accepted  truth as the goal for your relationship, you became givers of peace
Tx:18.4  has taken many forms because it was the substitution of illusion for  truth, of fragmentation for wholeness. It has become so splintered
Tx:18.4  once was one and still is what it was. That one error, which brought  truth to illusion, infinity to time, and life to death, was all you
Tx:18.6  the screen on which it was projected and drawn between you and the  truth. For truth extends inward, where the idea of loss is
Tx:18.6  on which it was projected and drawn between you and the truth. For  truth extends inward, where the idea of loss is meaningless and
Tx:18.6  and upside-down arose from this? [It was inevitable.] For  truth brought to this could only remain within in quiet and take no
Tx:18.7 The  truth will save you. It has not left you to go out into the mad
Tx:18.7  is outside you. You but believe it is the other way; that  truth is outside and error and guilt within. Your little senseless
Tx:18.8  your mad journey outside yourself, leading you gently back to the  truth and safety within. He brings all your insane projections and
Tx:18.8  and your wild substitutions which you have placed outside you to the  truth. Thus He reverses the course of insanity and restores you to
Tx:18.9  of everything at your request, He has set the course inward to the  truth you share. In the mad world outside you, nothing can be shared
Tx:18.9  is holy ground in which no substitution can enter and where only the  truth about each other can abide. Here you are joined in God, as much
Tx:18.9  error has not entered here, nor ever will. Here is the radiant  truth to which the Holy Spirit has committed your relationship. Let
Tx:18.10 You are so firmly joined in  truth that only God is there. And He would never accept something
Tx:18.11  entered quietly, for all illusions have been gently brought unto the  truth in you and love has shined upon you, blessing your relationship
Tx:18.11  in you and love has shined upon you, blessing your relationship with  truth. God and His whole creation have entered it together. How

Tx:18.22  you do not see that you have made, at last, the choice between the  truth and all illusions.
Tx:18.23  is sure. This is no dream. Its coming means that you have chosen  truth, and it has come because you have been willing to let your
Tx:18.23  represent the same wishes in your mind, so do the real world and the  truth of Heaven join in the Will of God. The dream of waking is
Tx:18.24 You who have spent your lives in bringing  truth to illusion, reality to fantasy, have walked the way of dreams.
Tx:18.24  And you sought a blackness so complete that you could hide from  truth forever in complete insanity. What you forgot was simply that
Tx:18.25  light comes nearer, you will rush to darkness, shrinking from the  truth, sometimes retreating to the lesser forms of fear and sometimes
Tx:18.25  you will advance because your goal is the advance from fear to  truth. You know this. The goal which you accepted is the goal of
Tx:18.25  and it will be enough to remind you that your goal is light.  Truth has rushed to meet you since you called upon it.

Tx:18.41  of what never was. If you already understood the difference between  truth and illusion, the Atonement would have no meaning. The holy
Tx:19.1 We said before that when a situation has been dedicated wholly to  truth, peace is inevitable. Its attainment is the criterion by which
Tx:19.1  faith will never be attained, for what is wholly dedicated to  truth as its only goal is brought to truth by faith. This faith
Tx:19.1  for what is wholly dedicated to truth as its only goal is brought to  truth by faith. This faith encompasses everyone involved, for only
Tx:19.3  illusion, acting accordingly; seeing what is not there, hearing what  truth has never said, and behaving insanely, being imprisoned by
Tx:19.4  for you have made of it an “enemy” of healing and the opposite of  truth.
Tx:19.5  Faithlessness is wholly dedicated to illusions; faith wholly to  truth. Partial dedication is impossible. Truth is the absence of
Tx:19.5  illusions; faith wholly to truth. Partial dedication is impossible.  Truth is the absence of illusion; illusion the absence of truth.
Tx:19.5  Truth is the absence of illusion; illusion the absence of  truth.
Tx:19.7  and when they are seen together, all attempts to keep both  truth and illusion in the mind, where both must be, are recognized
Tx:19.7  recognized as dedication to illusion and given up when brought to  truth and seen as totally irreconcilable with truth in any respect or

Tx:19.22  “holiness” of sin is kept in place by just this strange device. As  truth it is inviolate, and everything is brought to it for

Tx:19.45  illusion. Such was the journey; such its ending. And in the goal of  truth which you accepted must all illusions end.

Tx:20.1  is Palm Sunday, the celebration of victory and the acceptance of the  truth. Let us not spend this holy week brooding on the crucifixion of
Tx:20.2  between the journey and its purpose; between the acceptance of the  truth and its expression. This week we celebrate life, not death. And

Tx:20.23  universe. And of the one blind thing in all the seeing universe of  truth you ask, “How shall I look upon the Son of God?”
Tx:20.24  would you believe the answer and adjust to it as if it were the  truth? The world you look on is the answer that it gave you, and
Tx:20.54  it will endure forever. Its firm foundation is eternally upheld by  truth, and love shines on it with the gentle smile and tender
Tx:20.61  where they cannot be. And both must be undone for purposes of  truth.
Tx:20.63  and reality kept separated. Here are illusions never brought to  truth and always hidden from it. And here in darkness is your
Tx:20.67  enough to show you what is given you who see your brother sinless.  Truth is restored to you through your desire, as it was lost to you

Tx:22.18  if the change be real and not imagined, illusions must give way to  truth and not to other dreams that are but equally unreal. This is no
Tx:22.19  to escape from misery is to recognize it and go the other way.  Truth is the same and misery the same, but they are different from
Tx:22.19  what is different. One illusion cherished and defended against the  truth makes all truth meaningless and all illusions real. Such is
Tx:22.19  One illusion cherished and defended against the truth makes all  truth meaningless and all illusions real. Such is the power of
Tx:22.25  news to hear not one of the illusions that you made replaced the  truth?
Tx:22.26  the function of an executioner you gave him for the one he has in  truth? Receive of him what God has given him for you, not what you
Tx:22.33  the outside of everything, the wall that stands between you and the  truth, is wholly true. Yet how can sight which stops at nothingness
Tx:22.35  must be distorted perception and must perceive illusions as the  truth. Could it then recognize the truth?
Tx:22.35  must perceive illusions as the truth. Could it then recognize the  truth?
Tx:22.43  block their way before. This veil you lift together opens the way to  truth to more than you. Those who would let illusions be lifted from
Tx:22.45  because of weakness. And how can it be difficult to walk the way of  truth when only weakness interferes? You are the strong ones in
Tx:22.46  ego wants defenses for—always to justify what goes against the  truth, flies in the face of reason, and makes no sense. Can this be
Tx:22.46  can this be except an invitation to insanity to save you from the  truth? And what would you be saved from but what you fear? Belief in
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 holds your
Tx:22.49  This body only seems to be immovable; this Force is irresistible in  truth. What, then, must happen when they come together? Can the

Tx:22.63  it is necessary that you have other experiences more in line with  truth to teach you what is natural and true.
Tx:22.65  What teaches you you cannot separate, denies the ego. Let  truth decide if you be different or the same and teach you which is
Tx:23.3  innocence. Nothing they see is harmful, for their awareness of the  truth releases everything from the illusion of harmfulness. And what
Tx:23.4  of guilt in innocence. Think what a happy world you walk with  truth beside you! Do not give up this world of freedom for a little
Tx:23.11  think you are a body, you will believe you have forgotten it. Yet  truth can never be forgotten by itself, and you have not
Tx:23.12  and has no influence upon it. Illusions cannot triumph over  truth, nor can they threaten it in any way. And the reality which
Tx:23.13  remember is a part of you. For you must be as God created you.  Truth does not fight against illusions, nor do illusions fight
Tx:23.13  does not fight against illusions, nor do illusions fight against the  truth. Illusions battle only with themselves. Being fragmented, they
Tx:23.13  battle only with themselves. Being fragmented, they fragment. But  truth is indivisible and far beyond their little reach. You will
Tx:23.13  nothing happens. There is no victor, and there is no victory. And  truth stands radiant, apart from conflict, untouched and quiet in the
Tx:23.15 See how the conflict of illusions disappears when it is brought to  truth! For it seems real only as long as it is seen as war between
Tx:23.18 Illusion meets illusion;  truth, itself. The meeting of illusions leads to war. Peace, looking
Tx:23.19  sphere. Yet they appear to constitute an obstacle to reason and to  truth. Let us, then, look upon them calmly, that we may look beyond
Tx:23.19  because it is their purpose to make meaningless and to attack the  truth. Here are the laws that rule the world you made. And yet they
Tx:23.20 The first chaotic law is that the  truth is different for everyone. Like all these principles, this one
Tx:23.21  the first principle of miracles. For this establishes degrees of  truth among illusions, making it appear that some of them are harder
Tx:23.21  any kind can be corrected because they are untrue. When brought to  truth instead of to each other, they merely disappear. No part of
Tx:23.21  merely disappear. No part of nothing can be more resistant to the  truth than can another.
Tx:23.24  it. It is not seen as even necessary that He be asked about the  truth of what has been established for His belief. His Son can tell
Tx:23.32  it is true. It is the function of insanity to take the place of  truth. It must be seen as truth to be believed. And if it is the
Tx:23.32  of insanity to take the place of truth. It must be seen as  truth to be believed. And if it is the truth, then must its opposite,
Tx:23.32  of truth. It must be seen as truth to be believed. And if it is the  truth, then must its opposite, which was the truth before, be madness
Tx:23.32  And if it is the truth, then must its opposite, which was the  truth before, be madness now. Such a reversal, completely turned
Tx:23.34  we have seen how it appears to function many times before. In  truth it does not function, yet in dreams, where only shadows play
Tx:23.39  of truth's reversal, leading still deeper into terror and away from  truth. Think not one step is smaller than another nor that return
Tx:23.47  is not loving must be an attack. Every illusion is an assault on  truth, and every one does violence to the idea of love because it
Tx:23.47  does violence to the idea of love because it seems to be of equal  truth.
Tx:23.48 What can be equal to the  truth yet different? Murder and love are incompatible. Yet if they
Tx:23.51  be perceived as nothingness when you engage in it? How can the  truth of miracles be recognized if murder is your choice?
Tx:24.2  no substitute for peace. What God creates has no alternative. The  truth arises from what He knows. And your decisions come from your
Tx:24.11 Those who are special must defend illusions against the  truth. For what is specialness but an attack upon the Will of God?
Tx:24.13  an alien will to which illusions of yourself are dearer than the  truth.
Tx:24.14  of peace and wrapped it carefully in sin to keep it “safe” from  truth.
Tx:24.15  If you think you are and would defend your specialness against the  truth of what you really are, how can you know the truth? What
Tx:24.15  against the truth of what you really are, how can you know the  truth? What answer that the Holy Spirit gives can reach you, when it
Tx:24.16  one a different message, and one with different meaning, is the  truth. Yet how can truth be different to each one? The special
Tx:24.16  message, and one with different meaning, is the truth. Yet how can  truth be different to each one? The special messages the special hear
Tx:24.17  in its defense against himself will vanish as his mind accepts the  truth about himself as it returns to take their place. This is the
Tx:24.17  as it returns to take their place. This is the only “cost” of  truth: you will no longer see what never was, nor hear what makes no
Tx:24.18  Nor will you change his function, any more than you can change the  truth in him and in yourself. But be you certain that the truth is
Tx:24.18  change the truth in him and in yourself. But be you certain that the  truth is just the same in both. It gives no different messages and
Tx:24.18  dream of specialness remain between you. What is one is joined in  truth.
Tx:24.20 You have come far along the way of  truth—too far to falter now. Just one step more and every vestige
Tx:24.20  so remote that they cannot be reached. Here in this holy place does  truth stand waiting to receive you both in silent blessing and in
Tx:24.22  the same as God is one with Him. And only specialness could make the  truth of God and you as one seem anything but Heaven and the hope
Tx:24.24  and in loneliness your special kingdom, apart from God, away from  truth and from salvation.
Tx:24.28  you did not anticipate upsets your world and hurls it into chaos.  Truth is not frail. Illusions leave it perfectly unmoved [and
Tx:24.28  it perfectly unmoved [and undisturbed]. But specialness is not the  truth in you. It can be thrown off balance by anything. What rests
Tx:24.37  but only in the sense that all illusions are “threatened” by the  truth. They will not stand before it. Yet what comfort has ever
Tx:24.38  brother's sins would justify itself and give it meaning that the  truth denies. All that is real proclaims his sinlessness. All that is
Tx:24.42  arise but from forgiveness? The Christ in you looks only on the  truth and sees no condemnation that could need forgiveness. He is
Tx:24.53  freedom yours, for such it is. Let not his specialness obscure the  truth in him, for not one law of death you bind him to will you
Tx:24.55  situations and through time which seems to have no end until the  truth be your decision. For eternity is not regained by still one
Tx:24.55  Him He set forever in your brother's holiness that you might see the  truth about yourself set forth at last in terms you recognized and
Tx:24.60  and tedious, too heavy to be borne. Yet to the dedication to the  truth as God established it no sacrifice is asked, no strain called
Tx:24.60  no strain called forth, and all the power of Heaven and the might of  truth itself is given to provide the means and guarantee the goal's

Tx:24.64  to know it is in his holiness? Seek not to make your specialness the  truth, for if it were, you would be lost indeed. Be thankful, rather,
Tx:24.64  rather, it is given you to see his holiness because it is the  truth. And what is true in him must be as true in you.

Tx:24.71  body testify to the idea that made it and speak for its reality and  truth.
Tx:24.72  thus does his perception serve his wish by giving it appearances of  truth. Yet can perception serve another goal. It is not bound to
Tx:25.8  Heaven presents itself to you as separate too. Not that it is in  truth, but that the link that has been given you to join the truth
Tx:25.8  is in truth, but that the link that has been given you to join the  truth may reach to you through what you understand. Father and Son
Tx:25.8  Son and Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join as one in  truth. Christ and His Father never have been separate, and Christ
Tx:25.10  it is. And It must use all learning to transfer illusions to the  truth, taking all false ideas of what you are and leading you beyond
Tx:25.10  all false ideas of what you are and leading you beyond them to the  truth that is beyond them. All this can very simply be reduced to
Tx:25.30  preserved. But to forgive it is to change its state from error into  truth.
Tx:25.36  for a little while. How better could your own mistakes be brought to  truth than by your willingness to bring the light of Heaven with you
Tx:25.37  to have. And no one could believe in one unless the other were the  truth, for each attests the other must be true.
Tx:25.40  If you decide against his proper function, the only one he has in  truth, you are depriving him of all the joy he would have found if he
Tx:25.52  has no meaning is insanity. And what is madness cannot be the  truth. If one belief so deeply valued here were true, then every
Tx:25.53  created him. And if he chooses to believe one thought opposed to  truth, he has decided he is not his Father's Son because the Son is
Tx:25.53  rests on sin. Who could create the changeless if it does not rest on  truth?
Tx:25.55  gentle eyes would look beyond the madness and rest peacefully on  truth. Each sees a world immutable, as each defines the changeless
Tx:25.55  sees a world immutable, as each defines the changeless and eternal  truth of what you are. And each reflects a view of what the Father
Tx:25.61  be a gainer. Here is sanity restored. And on this single rock of  truth can faith in God's eternal saneness rest in perfect confidence
Tx:25.62  and in Him no loss is possible. And this is sane because it is the  truth.
Tx:25.70  but have a Judge Who knows that they are wholly innocent in  truth. In justice, He is bound to set them free and give them all the
Tx:25.78  possible will you hold dear that sin be kept in place. You mean that  truth has greater value now than all illusions. And you recognize
Tx:25.78  has greater value now than all illusions. And you recognize that  truth must be revealed to you because you know not what it is.
Tx:26.4  seen within a world of separate bodies, however much he witnesses to  truth? He is invisible in such a world. Nor can his song of union
Tx:26.5 Those who would see the witnesses to  truth instead of to illusion merely ask that they might see a purpose
Tx:26.11  corrected. One mistake is not more difficult for Him to bring to  truth than is another. For there is but one mistake—the whole
Tx:26.18  He knows is one? He knows of one creation, one reality, one  truth, and but one Son. Nothing conflicts with oneness. How, then,
Tx:26.18  there to decide? For it is conflict that makes choice [complex]. The  truth is simple—it is one, without an opposite. And how could
Tx:26.18  in its simple presence and bring complexity where oneness is? The  truth makes no decisions, for there is nothing to decide between.
Tx:26.19  conflicting values meet and all illusions are laid down beside the  truth where they are judged to be untrue. This borderland is just
Tx:26.20  here in that the words imply a limited reality, a partial  truth, a segment of the universe made true. This is because knowledge
Tx:26.21 Nothing the Son of God believes can be destroyed. But what is  truth to him must be brought to the last comparison that he will ever
Tx:26.21  the final judgment upon this world. It is the judgment of the  truth upon illusion, of knowledge on perception—it has no meaning

Tx:26.37  place of what is really now and here. Is this a hindrance to the  truth the past is gone and cannot be returned to you? And do you
Tx:26.44  to keep the ones which he prefers and find the safety that the  truth alone can give? Who can believe illusions are the same and
Tx:26.45  God appointed has no substitute, for what illusion can replace the  truth?
Tx:26.46  has called your Friend. And it is He who is your only Friend in  truth. He brings you gifts that are not of this world, and only He to
Tx:26.48 Guilt asks for punishment, and its request is granted—not in  truth but in the world of shadows and illusions built on sin. The Son
Tx:26.48  changes, made to take the place of changeless knowledge. Yet is  truth unchanged. It cannot be perceived, but only known. What is
Tx:26.48  What is perceived takes many forms, but none has meaning. Brought to  truth, its senselessness is quite apparent. Kept apart from truth, it
Tx:26.48  to truth, its senselessness is quite apparent. Kept apart from  truth, it seems to have a meaning and be real.
Tx:26.49 Perception's laws are opposite to  truth, and what is true of knowledge is not true of anything that is
Tx:26.50  laws must be reversed, because they are reversals of the laws of  truth. The laws of truth forever will be true and cannot be
Tx:26.50  because they are reversals of the laws of truth. The laws of  truth forever will be true and cannot be reversed, yet can be
Tx:26.51 It is impossible that one illusion be less amenable to  truth than are the rest. But it is possible that some are given
Tx:26.51  that some are given greater value and less willingly offered to  truth for healing and for help. No illusion has any truth in it. Yet
Tx:26.51  offered to truth for healing and for help. No illusion has any  truth in it. Yet it appears some are more true than others, although
Tx:26.51  is preference, not reality. What relevance has preference to the  truth? Illusions are illusions and are false. Your preference gives
Tx:26.51  wish that seems to go against His Will has no foundation in the  truth.
Tx:26.53 Nothing gives meaning where no meaning is. And  truth needs no defense to make it true. Illusions have no witnesses
Tx:26.56  perfect and complete. What is forgiveness but a willingness that  truth be true? What can remain unhealed and broken from a Unity Which
Tx:26.63  but calls your ancient name, which you will recognize because the  truth is in your memory. And to this name, your brother calls for his
Tx:26.67  be recognized by those who know it not. And by this little gift of  truth but let to be itself—the Son of God allowed to be himself and
Tx:27.5  therefore never suffered pain at all. It witnesses to the eternal  truth that you cannot be hurt and points beyond itself to both your

Tx:27.32  seen as spent and fully occupied, becomes a silent invitation to the  truth to enter and to make itself at home. No preparation can be made
Tx:27.32  leave as vacant, God will fill, and where He is, there must the  truth abide. Unweakened power with no opposite is what creation is.
Tx:27.32  is. For this there are no symbols. Nothing points beyond the  truth, for what can stand for more than everything? Yet true undoing
Tx:27.33  you have chosen to impose. Forgiveness is the means by which the  truth is represented temporarily. It lets the Holy Spirit make
Tx:27.56  not make a witness true because you called him by truth's name. The  truth is found in him if it is truth he represents. And otherwise
Tx:27.56  you called him by truth's name. The truth is found in him if it is  truth he represents. And otherwise he lies, if you should call him
Tx:27.61  may heal, and suffer not the laws of sin to be applied to you. And  truth will be revealed to you who chose to let love's symbols take
Tx:27.67  They support its claim on your allegiance. What conceals the  truth is not where you should look to find the truth. The witnesses
Tx:27.67  What conceals the truth is not where you should look to find the  truth. The witnesses to sin all stand within one little space. And it
Tx:27.71  a tiny you and an enormous world, with different dreams about the  truth in you. The gap between reality and dreams lies not between the
Tx:27.84 The world but demonstrates an ancient  truth—you will believe that others do to you exactly what you
Tx:27.86  Whoever takes the role of enemy and of attacker, still is this the  truth. Whatever seems to be the cause of any pain and suffering you
Tx:27.87  hurt you bring to Him He will make answer with this very simple  truth. For this one answer takes away the cause of every form of
Tx:28.3  It is an unselective memory, which is not used to interfere with  truth. All things the Holy Spirit can employ for healing have been
Tx:28.6  all the other attributes with which you seek to keep concealed the  truth about yourself. Time neither takes away nor can restore. And
Tx:28.42  own as well. Your dreams are witnesses to his, and his attest the  truth of yours. Yet if you see there is no truth in yours, his
Tx:28.42  his, and his attest the truth of yours. Yet if you see there is no  truth in yours, his dreams will [disappear before his eyes], and he
Tx:28.49  are your Self or an illusion. What can be between illusion and the  truth? A middle ground where you can be a thing that is not you must
Tx:28.49  you can be a thing that is not you must be a dream and cannot be the  truth.
Tx:28.50 You have conceived a little gap between illusions and the  truth to be the place where all your safety lies and where your Self
Tx:28.52  of wood, a thread or two perhaps, all put together to attest its  truth. Reality does not depend on this. There is no gap which
Tx:28.52  does not depend on this. There is no gap which separates the  truth from dreams and from illusions. Truth has left no room for them
Tx:28.52  no gap which separates the truth from dreams and from illusions.  Truth has left no room for them in any place or time. For it fills

Tx:29.10  suffering to learn that you are free? Why would you not acclaim the  truth, instead of looking on it as an enemy? Why does an easy path,
Tx:29.21  live. Within the dream of bodies and of death is yet one theme of  truth—no more, perhaps, than just a tiny spark, a space of light
Tx:29.25 Do you believe that  truth can be but some illusions? They are dreams because they are
Tx:29.25  They are dreams because they are not true. Their equal lack of  truth becomes the basis for the miracle, which means that you have
Tx:29.43  longer elsewhere. You will fail. But it is given you to know the  truth and not to seek for it outside yourself.
Tx:29.44  him, this cannot be so. And therefore by his coming, he denies the  truth about himself and seeks for something more than everything,
Tx:29.48 All idols of this world were made to keep the  truth within from being known to you and to maintain allegiance to
Tx:29.50  of your reality an idol which you must protect against the light of  truth. And all the world becomes the means by which this idol can be
Tx:29.56  gift of Heaven and eternal peace. The miracle does not restore the  truth, the light the veil between has not put out. It merely lifts
Tx:29.56  between has not put out. It merely lifts the veil and lets the  truth shine unencumbered, being what it is. It does not need belief
Tx:29.61  your story in the dream you made, and ask yourself if it be not the  truth that you believe that it is not a dream. A dream of judgment
Tx:30.38  be yours. Decide for idols, and you ask for loss. Decide for  truth, and everything is yours.
Tx:30.49  will not see you made it up. You always fight illusions. For the  truth behind them is so lovely and so still in loving gentleness,
Tx:30.49  you would forget defensiveness entirely and rush to its embrace. The  truth could never be attacked. And this you knew when you made idols.
Tx:30.53  but obscure reality, and they bring fear because they hide the  truth. Do not attack what you have made to let you be deceived, for
Tx:30.73  a fearful judgment which your brother does not merit. For it is the  truth that you can merit neither more nor less than he.
Tx:30.76  must remain apart from healing, one illusion must be part of  truth. And you could not escape all guilt, but only some of it. You
Tx:30.76  forgive. And so there cannot be appearances which have replaced the  truth about God's Son.
Tx:30.78  There is no way to think of him but this if you would know the  truth about yourself:
Tx:30.80  illusions real. And what is this except a simple statement of the  truth?

Tx:31.12  free because an ancient learning passed away and left a place for  truth to be reborn.
Tx:31.13  by the opposing of the new and old. It is not vanquished that the  truth be known nor fought against to lose to truth's appeal. There is
Tx:31.13  in the new. There is an ancient battle being waged against the  truth, but truth does not respond. Who could be hurt in such a war
Tx:31.13  There is an ancient battle being waged against the truth, but  truth does not respond. Who could be hurt in such a war unless he

Tx:31.14 Let us review again what seems to stand between you and the  truth of what you are. For there are steps in its relinquishment. The
Tx:31.14  The first is a decision that you make. But afterwards the  truth is given you. You would establish truth. And by your wish,
Tx:31.14  make. But afterwards the truth is given you. You would establish  truth. And by your wish, you set two choices to be made each time you

Tx:31.49  of the world, which cannot make a single picture representing  truth.
Tx:31.59  you know not what you are. It is to this unsealed and open mind that  truth returns, unhindered and unbound. Where concepts of the self
Tx:31.59  and unbound. Where concepts of the self have been laid by is  truth revealed exactly as it is. When every concept has been raised
Tx:31.59  as made on no assumptions which would stand the light, then is the  truth left free to enter in its sanctuary, clean and free of guilt.
Tx:31.65  It matters not where you believe you are nor what you think the  truth about yourself must really be. It makes no difference what you
Tx:31.66  be, forget not that no concept of yourself will stand against the  truth of what you are. Undoing truth would be impossible. But
Tx:31.66  of yourself will stand against the truth of what you are. Undoing  truth would be impossible. But concepts are not difficult to change.
Tx:31.67  or Heaven. What your Father wills for you can never change. The  truth in you remains as radiant as a star, as pure as light, as
Tx:31.68  concepts is salvation's task. For it must deal in contrasts, not in  truth, which has no opposite and cannot change. In this world's
Tx:31.74  of the self stands like a shield, a silent barricade before the  truth, and hides it from your sight. All things you see are images
Tx:31.87  not leave one source of pain unhealed nor any image left to veil the  truth. [He would remove all misery from you, whom God created altars

W1:56.5  God is in everything I see. Behind every image I have made, the  truth remains unchanged. Behind every veil I have drawn across the
W1:56.5  are part of Him will yet look past all appearances and recognize the  truth beyond them all.
W1:57.4  I see everything upside down, and my thoughts are the opposite of  truth. I see the world as a prison for God's Son. It must be, then,
W1:58.2  longer see myself as guilty. I can accept the innocence that is the  truth about me. Seen through understanding eyes, the holiness of the
W1:58.4  ideas about myself? My holiness undoes them all by asserting the  truth about me. In the presence of my holiness, which I share with
W1:60.5  guide my actions, and lead my feet. I am walking steadily on toward  truth. There is nowhere else I can go, because God's Voice is the
W1:61.1  the world except God's Son? This, then, is merely a statement of the  truth about yourself. It is the opposite of a statement of pride, of
W1:61.1  It refers to you as you were created by God. It simply states the  truth.
W1:61.4  It brings all the images you have made about yourself to the  truth and helps you depart in peace, unburdened and certain of your
W1:61.8  practice period. Thus you will awaken with an acknowledgment of the  truth about yourself, reinforce it throughout the day, and turn to
W1:62.1  you are the light of the world. Through your forgiveness does the  truth about yourself return to your memory. Therefore in your
W1:62.2  creation and its Creator. Now you are learning how to remember the  truth. For this, attack must be replaced by forgiveness so that
W1:65.10  of being willing to have your illusions of purpose be replaced by  truth.
W1:66.3  will try to go past this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the  truth about your function. We will not engage in ceaseless arguments

W1:66.3  attacks on truth. We will merely be glad that we can find out what  truth is.

W1:66.9  up of illusions. The other is the home of the Holy Spirit, where  truth abides. There are no other guides but these to choose between
W1:66.12  to the Holy Spirit's Voice. You will listen to madness or hear the  truth. Try to make this choice as you think about the premises on
W1:66.13  and the different as different. On one side stand all illusions. All  truth stands on the other. Let us try today to realize that only the
W1:66.13  truth stands on the other. Let us try today to realize that only the  truth is true.
W1:67.2 We will make every effort today to reach this  truth about you and to realize fully, if only for a moment, that it
W1:67.2  about you and to realize fully, if only for a moment, that it is the  truth. In the longer practice period, we will think about your
W1:67.2  unchanged and unchangeable nature. We will begin by repeating this  truth about you and then spend a few minutes adding some relevant
W1:67.5  reach past all your images and preconceptions about yourself to the  truth in you. If Love created you like Itself, this Self must be in
W1:67.6  and that you need to continue adding other thoughts related to the  truth about yourself. Yet perhaps you will succeed in going past that
W1:67.7  the idea for today as often as you can. You need to hear the  truth about yourself as frequently as possible because your mind is
W1:67.7  to remind yourself that Love created you like Itself. Hear the  truth about yourself in this.
W1:67.8  reminding you of your Father and of your Self. This is the Voice of  truth replacing everything that the ego tells you about yourself with
W1:67.8  everything that the ego tells you about yourself with the simple  truth about the Son of God. You were created by Love like Itself.
W1:72.5  deceiver, full of false promises and offering illusions in place of  truth.
W1:72.8  against Him and His creation, that you may not hear the Voice of  truth and welcome it as Friend. Your chosen savior takes His place
W1:72.9  to your peace of mind. You have seen yourself in a body and the  truth outside you, locked away from your awareness by the body's
W1:72.10 The light of  truth is in us, where it was placed by God. It is the body that is
W1:72.10  a body is to be in our natural state. To recognize the light of  truth in us is to recognize ourselves as we are. To see our Self as
W1:72.15  the ego what salvation is and where to find it. We are asking it of  truth. Be certain, then, that the answer will be true because of Whom
W1:73.7  happiness, and it is happiness you really want. Such is your will in  truth. And so salvation is your will as well. You want to succeed in
W1:76.7  We will devote today to rejoicing that this is so. It is no longer a  truth which we would hide. We realize instead it is a truth which
W1:76.7  is no longer a truth which we would hide. We realize instead it is a  truth which keeps us free forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of
W1:76.10  hold your mind in silent readiness to hear the Voice that speaks the  truth to you. You will be listening to One Who says there is no loss
W1:77.2  nor on any of the rituals you have devised. It is inherent in the  truth of what you are. It is implicit in what God your Father is. It
W1:77.3  you and can never be lost. We ask no more than what belongs to us in  truth. Today, however, we will also make sure that we will not
W1:78.4  So is the seeing of the world reversed, as we look out toward  truth, away from fear.
W1:78.8 Then let us ask of Him Who knows this Son of God in his reality and  truth that we may look on him a different way and see our savior
W1:80.2  God's answer. You have laid deception aside and seen the light of  truth. You have accepted salvation for yourself by bringing the
W1:R2.4 Regard these practice periods as dedications to the way, the  truth, and the life. Refuse to be side-tracked into detours,
W1:88.2  are not there to choose. That is why I always choose between  truth and illusion, between what is there and what is not. The light
W1:89.5  I express my willingness to have all my illusions be replaced with  truth according to God's plan for my salvation. I would make no
W1:91.8  The belief you are a body calls for correction, being a mistake. The  truth of what you are calls on the strength in you to bring to your
W1:92.5 Strength is the  truth about you; weakness is an idol falsely worshiped and adored
W1:92.5  where God appointed that there should be light. Strength comes from  truth and shines with light its Source has given it; weakness
W1:92.6  Truth is a savior and can only will for happiness and peace for
W1:92.10  practice seeing in the light, closing the body's eyes and asking  truth to show us how to find the meeting place of self and Self,
W1:93.1  home of evil, darkness, and sin. You think if anyone could see the  truth about you he would be repelled, recoiling from you as if from a
W1:93.7  you did, you are as God created you. Whatever mistakes you made, the  truth about you is unchanged. Creation is eternal and unalterable.
W1:93.8  five minutes of every waking hour, we will begin by stating the  truth about our creation:
W1:93.14  to closing your eyes and realizing that this is a statement of the  truth about you.
W1:94.3  first five minutes of each waking hour to the attempt to feel the  truth in you. Begin these times of searching with these words:
W1:94.6  you have ascribed to yourself and wait in silent expectancy for the  truth. God has Himself promised that it will be revealed to all who
W1:95.11  is but another way in which you would defend illusions against the  truth. Let all these errors go by recognizing them for what they are.
W1:95.12 This is the  truth, and nothing else is true. Today we will affirm this truth
W1:95.12  is the truth, and nothing else is true. Today we will affirm this  truth again and try to reach the place in you in which there is no
W1:95.17  world and let the light in you come through to teach the world the  truth about itself. You are One Self, in perfect harmony with all
W1:95.18  all your illusions out of the One Mind which is this Self, the holy  truth in you.
W1:95.20  time you do so, someone hears the voice of hope, the stirring of the  truth within his mind, the gentle rustling of the wings of peace.
W1:96.2 The fact that  truth and illusion cannot be reconciled, no matter how you try, what
W1:96.7  conflicts which a dream presents? What could the resolution mean in  truth? What purpose could it serve? What is it for? Salvation cannot

W1:97.1  factors into unity. It simply states the truth. Practice this  truth today as often as you can, for it will bring your mind from

W1:97.5  His sight to everyone who asks; replaces error with the simple  truth.
W1:98.1  dedication. We take a stand on but one side today. We side with  truth and let illusions go. We will not vacillate between the two but
W1:98.1  two but take a firm position with the one. We dedicate ourselves to  truth today and to salvation as God planned it be. We will not argue
W1:99.2  Truth and illusions both are equal now, for both have happened. The
W1:99.2  for, salvation from. Salvation is the borderland between the  truth and illusion. It reflects the truth because it is the means by
W1:99.2  is the borderland between the truth and illusion. It reflects the  truth because it is the means by which you can escape illusions. Yet
W1:99.2  it is the means by which you can escape illusions. Yet it is not  truth because it undoes what was never done.
W1:99.4  Mind and thought which are forever one? What plan could hold the  truth inviolate, yet recognize the need illusions bring and offer
W1:99.6 This is the thought which brings illusions to the  truth, and sees them as appearances behind which is the changeless
W1:99.12  your longer practice periods with this instruction in the way of  truth:
W1:99.15 Forgive all thoughts which would oppose the  truth of your completeness, unity, and peace. You cannot lose the
W1:99.16  to believe them true, remember that appearances cannot withstand the  truth these mighty words contain:
W1:101.11 God's Will for me is perfect happiness. This is the  truth because there is no sin.
W1:103.2  think what they have made is real. These images, with no reality in  truth, bear witness to the fear of God, forgetting being Love, He
W1:103.3 This basic error we will try again to bring to  truth today and teach ourselves:
W1:103.6  each waking hour today. Then welcome all the happiness it brings, as  truth replaces fear, and joy becomes what you expect to take the
W1:103.7  it is happiness I seek today. I cannot fail because I seek the  truth.
W1:104.2  where God's gifts belong. These are the gifts which are our own in  truth. His are the gifts which we inherited before time was and which
W1:104.4 Our longer practice periods today, the hourly five minutes given  truth for your salvation, should begin with this:
W1:104.7  Him. We come in confidence today, aware that what belongs to us in  truth is what He gives. And we would wish for nothing else, for
W1:104.7  we would wish for nothing else, for nothing else belongs to us in  truth.
W1:104.9 I seek but what belongs to me in  truth. God's gifts of joy and peace are all I want.
W1:106.1  told you what salvation is; then you will hear the mighty Voice of  truth, quiet in power, strong in stillness, and completely certain in
W1:106.2  to peace to those who cannot see. Be still today and listen to the  truth. Be not deceived by voices of the dead which tell you they have
W1:106.2  offer it to you for your belief. Attend them not, but listen to the  truth.
W1:106.3  persuasion. Hear them not. Be still today, and listen to the  truth. Go past all things which do not speak of Him Who holds your
W1:106.9 I will be still and listen to the  truth. What does it mean to give and to receive?
W1:106.11 Be still and listen to the  truth today. For each five minutes spent in listening, a thousand
W1:106.11  five minutes spent in listening, a thousand minds are opened to the  truth. And they will hear the holy Word you hear. And when the hour
W1:106.11  past, you will again release a thousand more who pause to ask that  truth be given them along with you.
W1:106.13 Let me be still and listen to the  truth. I am the messenger of God today. My voice is His, to give what
W1:107.1 What can correct illusions but the  truth? And what are errors but illusions that remain unrecognized for
W1:107.1  but illusions that remain unrecognized for what they are? Where  truth has entered, errors disappear. They merely vanish, leaving not
W1:107.1  whence they came. From dust to dust they come and go, for only  truth remains.
W1:107.3  the faintest intimation of the state your mind will rest in when the  truth has come.
W1:107.4  illusions there could be no fear, no doubt, and no attack. When  truth has come, all pain is over, for there is no room for transitory
W1:107.4  room for transitory thoughts and dead ideas to linger in your mind.  Truth occupies your mind completely, liberating you from all beliefs
W1:107.4  from all beliefs in the ephemeral. They have no place because the  truth has come, and they are nowhere. They cannot be found, for truth
W1:107.4  the truth has come, and they are nowhere. They cannot be found, for  truth is everywhere forever now.
W1:107.5 When  truth has come, it does not stay a while to disappear or change to
W1:107.5  the world presents engender. They will merely blow away when  truth corrects the errors in your mind.
W1:107.6 When  truth has come, it harbors in its wings the gift of perfect constancy
W1:107.6  beyond it, steadily and sure. Here is the gift of healing, for the  truth needs no defense, and therefore no attack is possible.
W1:107.6  and therefore no attack is possible. Illusions can be brought to  truth to be corrected. But the truth stands far beyond illusions and
W1:107.6  possible. Illusions can be brought to truth to be corrected. But the  truth stands far beyond illusions and cannot be brought to them to
W1:107.6  far beyond illusions and cannot be brought to them to turn them into  truth.
W1:107.7  Truth does not come and go nor shift nor change, in this appearance
W1:107.8 Today belongs to  truth. Give truth its due, and it will give you yours. You were not
W1:107.8 Today belongs to truth. Give  truth its due, and it will give you yours. You were not meant to
W1:107.8  to suffer and to die. Your Father wills these dreams be gone. Let  truth correct them all. We do not ask for what we do not have. We
W1:107.9  we practice on the happy note of certainty that has been born of  truth. The shaky and unsteady footsteps of illusion is not our
W1:107.9  we live and hope and breathe and think. We do not doubt we walk with  truth today and count on it to enter into all the exercises that we
W1:107.11  Truth will correct all errors in your mind which tell you you could
W1:107.13 Then let Him lead you gently to the  truth which will envelop you and give you peace so deep and tranquil
W1:107.14  For you will bring with you the promise of the changes which the  truth that goes with you will carry to the world. They will increase
W1:108.4  giving and receiving seen as different aspects of one Thought Whose  truth does not depend on which is seen as first, nor which appears to
W1:108.5  every kind of learning if it be directed by the One Who knows the  truth.
W1:108.9 To give and to receive are one in  truth. I will receive what I am giving now.
W1:108.14 To give and to receive are one in  truth.
W1:109.2  seek. “I rest in God.” This thought has power to wake the sleeping  truth in you, whose vision sees beyond appearances to that same truth
W1:109.2  truth in you, whose vision sees beyond appearances to that same  truth in everyone and everything there is. Here is the end of
W1:109.3  no problem which it cannot solve. And no appearance but will turn to  truth before the eyes of you who rest in God.
W1:109.4  hate, your rest remains completely undisturbed. Yours is the rest of  truth. Appearances cannot intrude on you. You call to all to join you
W1:110.1  to save you and the world if you believed that it is true. Its  truth would mean that you have made no changes in yourself which have
W1:110.3 If you remain as God created you, appearances cannot replace the  truth, health cannot turn to sickness, nor can death be substitute
W1:110.5  It is the birthplace of all miracles, the great restorer of the  truth to the awareness of the world. Practice today's idea with
W1:110.5  of the world. Practice today's idea with gratitude. This is the  truth that comes to set you free. This is the truth that God has
W1:110.5  gratitude. This is the truth that comes to set you free. This is the  truth that God has promised you. This is the Word in which all sorrow
W1:110.10  images which you believed were you. Today we make a great advance to  truth by letting idols go and opening our hands and hearts and minds
W1:110.13 Let us declare this  truth as often as we can. This is the Word of God that sets you free.
W1:111.2  in light. I cannot see in darkness. Let the light of holiness and  truth light up my mind And let me see the innocence within.
W1:117.3 [104] I seek but what belongs to me in  truth. Love is my heritage and with it joy. These are the gifts my
W1:117.3  the gifts my Father gave to me. I would accept all that is mine in  truth.
W1:117.7 I seek but what belongs to me in  truth.
W1:118.3 [106] Let me be still and listen to the  truth. Let mine own feeble voice be still, and let me hear the
W1:118.3  mine own feeble voice be still, and let me hear the mighty Voice of  truth itself assure me that I am God's perfect Son.
W1:118.7 Let me be still and listen to the  truth.
W1:119.2 [107]  Truth will correct all errors in my mind. I am mistaken when I
W1:119.3 [108] To give and to receive are one in  truth. I will forgive all things today, that I may learn how to
W1:119.3  I will forgive all things today, that I may learn how to accept the  truth in me and come to recognize my sinlessness.
W1:119.7 To give and to receive are one in  truth.
W1:122.6  the power and the majesty of this extremely simple statement of the  truth.
W1:122.13  as you see the changeless in the heart of change, the light of  truth behind appearances. Be tempted not to let your gifts slip by
W1:123.1  is no thought of turning back and no implacable resistance to the  truth. A bit of wavering remains, some small objections, and a little
W1:124.2  place to everlasting life. Our shining footprints point the way to  truth, for God is our Companion as we walk the world a little while.
W1:126.8 Today we try to understand the  truth that giver and receiver are the same. You will need help to
W1:126.8  Him your faith today and ask Him that He share your practicing in  truth today. And if you only catch a tiny glimpse of the release
W1:126.10  really means. Be willing to be taught. Be glad to hear the Voice of  truth and healing speak to you, and you will understand the words He
W1:127.5  There is not one principle the world upholds but violates the  truth of what love is, and what you are as well. Seek not within the
W1:127.8  He Himself has promised this. And He Himself will place a spark of  truth within your mind wherever you give up a false belief, a dark
W1:127.8  shine through your idle thoughts today and help you understand the  truth of love. In loving gentleness, He will abide with you as you
W1:130.3  project upon the world? What can be seen in darkness that is real?  Truth is eclipsed by fear, and what remains is but imagined. Yet what
W1:130.10  you fail to see His thanks expressed in tangible perception and in  truth. You will not doubt what you will look upon. For though it is
W1:131.10 Today we will not choose a paradox in place of  truth. How could the Son of God make time to take away the Will of
W1:131.11 No one can fail who asks to reach the  truth, and it is truth we ask to reach today. We will devote ten
W1:131.11 No one can fail who asks to reach the truth, and it is  truth we ask to reach today. We will devote ten minutes to this goal
W1:131.11  have no meaning, no effect, and neither source nor substance in the  truth.
W1:131.15  to open it, remind yourself no one can fail who asks to reach the  truth, and it is this request you make today. Nothing but this has
W1:131.16  you realize the world you see before you in the light reflects the  truth you knew and did not quite forget in wandering away in dreams.
W1:132.1  are mighty, and illusions are as strong in their effects as is the  truth. A madman thinks the world he sees is real and does not doubt
W1:132.5  already, hardly waiting for your thoughts to give it meaning. Yet in  truth you found exactly what you looked for when you came. There is
W1:132.7  one must go as far as he can let himself be led along the road to  truth. He will return and go still farther, or perhaps step back a
W1:132.8  that the world does not exist because what they behold must be the  truth, and yet it clearly contradicts the world. And some will find
W1:132.13  this release to give you fatherhood, not of illusions, but as God in  truth. God shares His Fatherhood with you who are His Son, for He
W1:132.14  idea be real? Can it be anywhere? Deny illusions, but accept the  truth. Deny you are a shadow briefly laid upon a dying world. Release
W1:133.9  what the ego wants it fails to recognize. It does not even tell the  truth as it perceives it, for it needs to keep the halo which it uses
W1:134.1  a gift unjustified and undeserved, and a complete denial of the  truth. In such a view, forgiveness must be seen as mere eccentric
W1:134.2  to what is false. It is irrelevant to everything except illusions.  Truth is God's creation, and to pardon this is meaningless. All truth
W1:134.2  Truth is God's creation, and to pardon this is meaningless. All  truth belongs to Him, reflects His laws and radiates His Love. Does
W1:134.3  on your part is that you still believe you must forgive the  truth and not illusions. You conceive of pardon as a vain attempt to
W1:134.3  pardon as a vain attempt to look past what is there; to overlook the  truth in an unfounded effort to deceive yourself by making an
W1:134.4  Thus is forgiveness really but a sin, like all the rest. It says the  truth is false and smiles on the corrupt as if they were as blameless
W1:134.5  denied, or called another name, for pardon is a treachery to  truth. Guilt cannot be forgiven. If you sin, your guilt is
W1:134.6  them lightly with a little laugh and gently lays them at the feet of  truth. And there they disappear entirely.
W1:134.7 Forgiveness is the only thing that stands for  truth in the illusions of the world. It sees their nothingness and
W1:134.7  eyes and merely says to them, “My brother, what you think is not the  truth.”
W1:134.8  which is so uncorrupted that it sees illusions as illusions, not as  truth. It is because of this that it becomes the undeceiver in the
W1:134.8  the undeceiver in the face of lies, the great restorer of the simple  truth. By its ability to overlook what is not there, it opens up the
W1:134.8  By its ability to overlook what is not there, it opens up the way to  truth, which had been blocked by dreams of guilt.
W1:134.10  of guilt and pain as God Himself intended it to be and as it is in  truth. It is but lies which would condemn. In truth is innocence the
W1:134.10  to be and as it is in truth. It is but lies which would condemn. In  truth is innocence the only thing there is. Forgiveness stands
W1:134.10  only thing there is. Forgiveness stands between illusions and the  truth, between the world you see and that which lies beyond, between
W1:134.11  are all dreams of evil and of hatred and attack brought silently to  truth. They are not kept to swell and bluster and to terrify the
W1:135.11  respond with health when they have been corrected and replaced with  truth. This is the body's only real defense. Yet is this where you
W1:135.15  a frightened mind would undertake its own protection at the cost of  truth. This is not difficult to realize in some forms which these
W1:135.18 Defenses are the plans you undertake to make against the  truth. Their aim is to select what you approve and disregard what you
W1:135.20  the future, and this life becomes a meaningful encounter with the  truth that only your defenses would conceal.
W1:135.22  but realize that our defenselessness is all that is required for the  truth to dawn upon our minds with certainty.
W1:135.23  rest from senseless planning and from every thought which blocks the  truth from entering our minds. Today we will receive instead of plan,
W1:135.26  what you will receive today. And in the light and joy of simple  truth, you will but wonder why you ever thought that you must be
W1:135.29  defend myself, because the Son of God needs no defense against the  truth of his reality.
W1:136.1  illusion by the same approach that carries all of them to  truth and merely leaves them there to disappear.
W1:136.2  pile of unassembled parts. The aim of all defenses is to keep the  truth from being whole. The parts are seen as if each one were whole
W1:136.3  made without awareness. They are secret magic wands you wave when  truth appears to threaten what you would believe. They seem to be
W1:136.8  It is a choice you make, a plan you lay when for an instant  truth arises in your own deluded mind and all your world appears to
W1:136.8  world appears to totter and prepare to fall. Now are you sick that  truth may go away and threaten your establishments no more.
W1:136.9 How do you think that sickness can succeed in shielding you from  truth? Because it proves the body is not separate from you, and so
W1:136.9  body is not separate from you, and so you must be separate from the  truth. You suffer pain because the body does, and in this pain are
W1:136.10 Thus is the body stronger than the  truth, which asks you live but cannot overcome your choice to die.
W1:136.11  such mad attacks as these, with God made blind by your illusions,  truth turned into lies, and all the universe made slave to laws which
W1:136.11  them up? Who else can see them and react to them as if they were the  truth?
W1:136.12  can but choose to think you die or suffer sickness or distort the  truth in any way. What is created is apart from all of this. Defenses
W1:136.13 Such is the simple  truth. It does not make appeal to might nor triumph. It does not
W1:136.13  and futile are your attempts to plan defenses which would alter it.  Truth merely wants to give you happiness, for such its purpose is.
W1:136.14  an illusion. 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
W1:136.14  For time is but another meaningless defense you made against the  truth. Yet what God wills is here, and you remain as He created you.
W1:136.15  Truth has a power far beyond defense, for no illusions can remain
W1:136.15  time—today, if you will choose to practice giving welcome to the  truth. This is our aim today. And we will give a quarter of an hour
W1:136.15  aim today. And we will give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the  truth to come to us and set us free.
W1:136.16 And  truth will come, for it has never been apart from us. It merely waits
W1:136.16  it with a healing prayer to help us rise above defensiveness and let  truth be as it has always been:
W1:136.17 Sickness is a defense against the  truth. I will accept the truth of what I am and let my mind be wholly
W1:136.17 Sickness is a defense against the truth. I will accept the  truth of what I am and let my mind be wholly healed today.
W1:136.18 Healing will flash across your open mind as peace and  truth arise to take the place of war and vain imaginings. There will
W1:136.18  corners sickness can conceal and keep defended from the light of  truth. There will be no dim figures from your dreams nor their
W1:136.22  for I mistook my body for myself. Sickness is a defense against the  truth, but I am not a body. And my mind cannot attack. So I cannot be
W1:137.4 Sickness would prove that lies must be the  truth. But healing demonstrates that truth is true. The separation
W1:137.4  prove that lies must be the truth. But healing demonstrates that  truth is true. The separation sickness would impose has never really
W1:137.4  To be healed is merely to accept what always was the simple  truth and always will remain exactly as it has forever been. Yet eyes
W1:137.4  that what they look upon is false. So healing, never needed by the  truth, must demonstrate that sickness is not real.
W1:137.5  counter-dream which cancels out the dream of sickness in the name of  truth but not in truth itself. Just as forgiveness overlooks all sins
W1:137.5  cancels out the dream of sickness in the name of truth but not in  truth itself. Just as forgiveness overlooks all sins that never were
W1:137.5  states and false ideas which dreams embroider into pictures of the  truth.
W1:137.7  replace the fantasies of sickness which you hold before the simple  truth. When sickness has been seen to disappear in spite of all the

W1:137.11  mind becomes a haven where the weary can remain to rest. For here is  truth bestowed, and here are all illusions brought to truth.
W1:137.11  For here is truth bestowed, and here are all illusions brought to  truth.
W1:137.12  cannot be to be, and this cannot succeed. Today we ask that only  truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of healing will this day
W1:138.2 It is this strange perception of the  truth that makes the choice of Heaven seem to be the same as the
W1:138.2  here unless it is reflected in some form the world can understand.  Truth cannot come where it could only be perceived with fear, for
W1:138.2  it could only be perceived with fear, for this would be the error  truth can be brought to illusions. Opposition makes the truth
W1:138.2  be the error truth can be brought to illusions. Opposition makes the  truth unwelcome, and it cannot come.
W1:138.4  that one is made, you will perceive it was no choice at all, for  truth is true and nothing else is real. There is no opposite to
W1:138.4  is no opposite to choose instead. There is no contradiction to the  truth.
W1:138.5 Choosing depends on learning. But the  truth cannot be learned but only recognized. In recognition its
W1:138.5  of your learning, for they rest on what you have accepted as the  truth of what you are and what your needs must be.
W1:138.6  different forms. Here is the final and the only choice in which is  truth accepted or denied.
W1:138.8  from salvation, threatened to be safe, and magically armored against  truth. And these decisions are made unaware to keep them safely
W1:138.9  which the mind had made before are open to correction as the  truth dismisses them as causeless. Now are they without effects. They
W1:138.11  what has existence and what has nothing but an appearance of the  truth. Its pseudo-being, brought to what is real, is flimsy and
W1:139.5  But you have split your mind into what knows and does not know the  truth. You are yourself. There is no doubt of this, and yet you doubt
W1:139.9  accept Atonement, not to change reality, but merely to accept the  truth about yourself and go your way rejoicing in the endless Love of
W1:139.12  and in our memory is the recall how dear our brothers are to us in  truth, how much a part of us is every mind, how faithful they have
W1:140.3  dreams another dream. His happy dreams are heralds of the dawn of  truth upon the mind. They lead from sleep to gentle waking, so that
W1:140.6  the need for healing is. This is no magic. It is merely an appeal to  truth which cannot fail to heal and heal forever. It is not a thought
W1:140.7  effect a change in anything. The mind that brings illusions to the  truth is really changed. There is no change but this. For how can one
W1:140.10  this can cure. Today we hear a single Voice which speaks to us of  truth where all illusions end, and peace returns to the eternal quiet
W1:R4.1  time aware we are preparing for the second part of learning how the  truth can be applied. Today we will begin to concentrate on readiness
W1:R4.4 This is a fact and represents the  truth of what you are and what your Father is. It is this thought by
W1:R4.6  you think with God. Your self-deceptions cannot take the place of  truth. No more than can a child who throws a stick into the ocean
W1:146.1 [131] No one can fail who asks to reach the  truth.
W1:148.2 [136] Sickness is a defense against the  truth.
W1:151.3  ears report. You think your fingers touch reality and close upon the  truth. This is awareness which you understand and think more real
W1:151.10  lessons will enable you to bridge the gap between illusions and the  truth. He will remove all faith that you have placed in pain,
W1:151.11 He will select the elements in them that represent the  truth and disregard those aspects which reflect but idle dreams. And
W1:151.13  our thoughts, appealing silently to Him Who sees the elements of  truth in them. Let Him evaluate each thought that comes to mind,
W1:151.14  transformed, it takes on healing power from the Mind Which saw the  truth in it and failed to be deceived by what was falsely added. All
W1:151.17  begun at last, to carry round the world the joyous news that  truth has no illusions and the peace of God, through us, belongs to
W1:152.2  that this position is extreme and too inclusive to be true. Yet can  truth have exceptions? If you have the gift of everything, can loss
W1:152.2  and sickness enter in a mind where love and perfect holiness abide?  Truth must be all-inclusive if it be the truth at all. Accept no
W1:152.2  and perfect holiness abide? Truth must be all-inclusive if it be the  truth at all. Accept no opposite and no exceptions, for to do so is
W1:152.2  no opposite and no exceptions, for to do so is to contradict the  truth entirely.
W1:152.3 Salvation is the recognition that the  truth is true and nothing else is true. This you have heard before,
W1:152.3  has no meaning, but without the second is the first no longer true.  Truth cannot have an opposite. This cannot be too often said and
W1:152.3  if what is not true is true as well as what is true, then part of  truth is false, and truth has lost its meaning. Nothing but the truth
W1:152.3  is true as well as what is true, then part of truth is false, and  truth has lost its meaning. Nothing but the truth is true, and what
W1:152.3  of truth is false, and truth has lost its meaning. Nothing but the  truth is true, and what is false is false.
W1:152.4  of choices which do not appear to be entirely your own. And thus the  truth appears to have some aspects that belie consistency but do not
W1:152.5  and in all response. This is the all-inclusiveness which sets the  truth apart from falsehood, and the false kept separate from the
W1:152.5  the truth apart from falsehood, and the false kept separate from the  truth as what it is.
W1:152.7  that God made chaos, contradicts His Will, invented opposites to  truth, and suffers death to triumph over life—all this is
W1:152.9  ego seeks to prove it arrogant. Only the ego can be arrogant. But  truth is humble in acknowledging its mightiness, its changelessness,
W1:152.11  Now do we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false and only  truth is true.
W1:152.12 We think of  truth alone as we arise and spend five minutes practicing its ways,
W1:152.15  will substitute the peace of God for all your frantic thoughts, the  truth of God for self-deceptions, and God's Son for your illusions of
W1:153.10  untouchable within its light. God's ministers have chosen that the  truth be with them. Who is holier than they? Who could be surer that
W1:153.13  upon this earth. And then we go to take our rightful place where  truth abides and games are meaningless.
W1:155.2  other choice is really theirs to make? To let illusion walk ahead of  truth is madness, but to let illusion sink behind the truth and let
W1:155.2  walk ahead of truth is madness, but to let illusion sink behind the  truth and let the truth stand forth as what it is, is simple sanity.
W1:155.2  is madness, but to let illusion sink behind the truth and let the  truth stand forth as what it is, is simple sanity.
W1:155.3  were mistaken in the choice. They cannot learn directly from the  truth because they have denied that it is so. And so they need a
W1:155.3  their madness, but who still can look beyond illusion to the simple  truth in them.
W1:155.4 If  truth demanded they give up the world, it would appear to them as if
W1:155.6  bring their eyes to look on and their minds to grasp. Now can the  truth, which walks ahead of you, speak to them through illusion, for
W1:155.7  and aims which will remain impossible. All this steps back as  truth comes forth in you to lead your brothers from the ways of death
W1:155.7  a guide to lead them out of it, for they mistake illusion for the  truth.
W1:155.8  is salvation's call, and nothing more. It asks that you accept the  truth, and let it go before you, lighting up the path of ransom from
W1:155.9  to you. And you may find that you are tempted still to walk ahead of  truth and let illusions be your guide. Your holy brothers have been
W1:155.9  in your footsteps as you walk with certainty of purpose to the  truth. It goes before you now, that they may see something with which
W1:155.10 Yet at the journey's ending there will be no gap, no distance between  truth and you. And all illusions walking in the way you traveled will
W1:155.10  will be gone from you as well, with nothing left to keep the  truth apart from God's completion, holy as Himself. Step back in
W1:155.10  from God's completion, holy as Himself. Step back in faith, and let  truth lead the way. You know not where you go, but One Who knows goes
W1:155.11  no journeys. There will be no wish to be illusion rather than the  truth. And we step forth toward this as we progress along the way
W1:155.11  And we step forth toward this as we progress along the way that  truth points out to us. This is our final journey, which we make for
W1:155.11  which we make for everyone. We must not lose our way. For as  truth goes before us, so it goes before our brothers who will follow
W1:155.12  less and still content 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
W1:156.1 Today's idea but states the simple  truth that makes the thought of sin impossible. It promises there is
W1:156.2  not inconsistent in the thoughts that we present in our curriculum.  Truth must be true throughout if it be true. It cannot contradict
W1:157.8  the Giver of the happy dreams of life, Translator of perception into  truth, the holy Guide to Heaven given you has dreamed for you this
W1:159.10  to hope. Let us an instant dream with Him. His dream awakens us to  truth. His vision gives the means for a return to our unlost and
W1:160.2  is a stranger in our midst who comes from an idea so foreign to the  truth he speaks a different language, looks upon a world truth does
W1:160.2  to the truth he speaks a different language, looks upon a world  truth does not know, and understands what truth regards as senseless.
W1:160.2  looks upon a world truth does not know, and understands what  truth regards as senseless. Stranger yet, he does not recognize to
W1:161.4  Every mind contains all minds, for every mind is one. Such is the  truth. Yet do these thoughts make clear the meaning of creation? Do
W1:162.3  certain and his body healed because he sleeps and wakens with the  truth before him always. He will save the world because he gives the
W1:162.3  gives the world what he receives each time he practices the words of  truth.
W1:164.1 What time but now can  truth be recognized? The present is the only time there is. And so
W1:165.1 What makes this world seem real except your own denial of the  truth which lies beyond? What but your thoughts of misery and death
W1:166.3  against himself. He must deny their presence, contradict the  truth, and suffer to preserve the world he made.
W1:166.7  appointed way, with eyes cast down lest you might catch a glimpse of  truth and be released from self-deception and set free.
W1:167.1 There are not different kinds of life, for life is like the  truth. It does not have degrees. It is the one condition in which all
W1:167.3  can heal. It is the cause of healing. It is why you cannot die. Its  truth established you as one with God.
W1:167.7  can be reconciled with what created it because it is not opposite in  truth. Its form may change; it may appear to be what it is not. Yet
W1:167.10 Let us today be children of the  truth and not deny our holy heritage. Our life is not as we imagine
W1:169.1  Love of God which is most like the state prevailing in the unity of  truth. It is the world's most lofty aspiration, for it leads beyond
W1:169.4  you to bear witness to the Word of God to hasten the experience of  truth and speed its advent into every mind which recognizes its
W1:169.12  outside, unknowing, unawakened, and in need of you as witness to the  truth?
W1:R5.12  completing His extension in your own. We practice but an ancient  truth we knew before illusion seemed to claim the world. And we
W1:184.4  is made by partial vision, purposefully set against the given  truth. Its enemy is wholeness. It conceives of little things and
W1:184.13  its aspects have distorted what you see but have not interfered with  truth at all. One Name we bring into our practicing. One Name we use
W1:184.15  absolved of all effects our errors seemed to have. And we accept the  truth You give in place of every one of them. Your Name is our
W1:185.3  what they will becomes the Will of God. For minds can only join in  truth. In dreams no two can share the same intent. To each the hero
W1:185.12  of God apart from every dream that ever seemed to take the place of  truth.
W1:186.6  yourself. You are not ignorant and helpless. Sin cannot tarnish the  truth in you, and misery can come not near the holy home of God.
W1:187.1  then the world asserts that you have lost what you possessed. The  truth maintains that giving will increase what you possess.
W1:188.5  it are in his understanding. He forgives because he recognized the  truth in him. The peace of God is shining in you now and in all
W1:190.3 Pain is a sign illusions reign in place of  truth. It demonstrates God is denied, confused with fear, perceived
W1:190.10  Pain is but sleep; joy is awakening. Pain is deception; joy alone is  truth.
W1:190.11  choice that ever can be made—we choose between illusions and the  truth, or pain and joy, or hell and Heaven. Let our gratitude unto
W1:191.4  to believe. In this one thought is everything set free. In this one  truth are all illusions gone. In this one fact is sinlessness
W1:193.7  it cannot be rejected in the end. No one can hide forever from a  truth so very obvious that it appears in countless forms and yet is
W1:193.15  Him Who knows the way to look upon them so that they will disappear.  Truth is His message; truth His teaching is. His are the lessons God
W1:193.15  to look upon them so that they will disappear. Truth is His message;  truth His teaching is. His are the lessons God would have us learn.
W1:194.8  to come again, replacing all your thoughts of sin and evil with the  truth of love. Think you the world could fail to gain thereby and
W1:196.2  because the ego, under what it sees as threat, is quick to cite the  truth to save its lies. Yet must it fail to understand the truth it
W1:196.2  cite the truth to save its lies. Yet must it fail to understand the  truth it uses thus. But you can learn to see these foolish
W1:196.3  you are not an ego. For the ways in which the ego would distort the  truth will not deceive you longer. You will not believe you are a
W1:198.2  for freedom is a part of knowledge. To condemn is thus impossible in  truth. What seems to be its influence and its effects have not
W1:198.3  end of dreams because it is a dream of waking. It is not itself the  truth. Yet does it point to where the truth must be and gives
W1:198.3  waking. It is not itself the truth. Yet does it point to where the  truth must be and gives direction with the certainty of God Himself.
W1:198.8  need forgiveness. Dreams of any kind are strange and alien to the  truth. Yet what but Truth could have a thought which builds a bridge
W1:198.8  Dreams of any kind are strange and alien to the truth. Yet what but  Truth could have a thought which builds a bridge to truth which
W1:198.8  Yet what but Truth could have a thought which builds a bridge to  truth which brings illusions to the other side?
W1:198.9 Today we practice letting freedom come to make its home with you. The  truth bestows these words upon your mind that you may find the key to
W1:199.1  firmly tied to it and sheltered by its presence. If this were the  truth, the mind were vulnerable indeed!
W1:200.6 What does forgiveness do? In  truth it has no function and does nothing, for it is unknown in
W1:R6.5  clutters up the mind and makes it deaf to reason, sanity, and simple  truth.
W2:I.1  on which we do not now depend. For now we seek direct experience of  truth alone. The lessons which remain are merely introductions to the
W2:I.8  of this one holy year which we have spent together in the search for  truth and God, Who is its one Creator. We have found the way He chose
W2:I.9  would 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
W2:WF.4  to forgive. But he who would forgive himself must learn to welcome  truth exactly as it is.
W2:222.1  shines upon, who also shines on Him. How still is he who knows the  truth of what He speaks today!
W2:224.1  This is reality, and only this. This is illusion's end. It is the  Truth.
W2:226.1  depart from me. For I have not sought for illusions to replace the  truth.
W2:227.1  illusions. Now I give them up and lay them down before the feet of  truth, to be removed forever from my mind. This is my holy instant of
W2:229.1  from the holy face of Christ. And what I look upon attests the  truth of the Identity I sought to lose, but which my Father has kept
W2:231.1  want to find. Let me remember You. What else could I desire but the  truth about myself?
W2:237.1 Today I will accept the  truth about myself. I will arise in glory and allow the light in me
W2:239.1 Let not the  truth about ourselves today be hidden by a false humility. Let us
W2:WIW.1  the world be seen in quite another light, and one which leads to  truth, where all the world must disappear and all its errors vanish.
W2:WIW.3  and make real. They see in its illusions but a solid base where  truth exists, upheld apart from lies. Yet everything that they report
W2:WIW.3  that they report is but illusion, which is kept apart from  truth.
W2:WIW.4 As sight was made to lead away from  truth, it can be redirected. Sounds become the call of God. And all
W2:243.2  am included. We are one because each part contains Your memory, and  truth must shine in all of us as one.
W2:244.2 And there we are in  truth. No storms can come into the hallowed haven of our home. In God
W2:247.1  comes to me. Let me accept what His sight shows me as the simple  truth and I am healed completely. Brother, come and let me look on
W2:248.1 I have disowned the  truth. Now let me be as faithful in disowning falsity. Whatever
W2:248.1  my mind. What dies was never living in reality and did but mock the  truth about myself. Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies
W2:WIS.1  the mind is driven mad and seeks to let illusions take the place of  truth. And being mad, it sees illusions where the truth should be and
W2:WIS.1  take the place of truth. And being mad, it sees illusions where the  truth should be and where it really is. Sin gave the body eyes, for
W2:WIS.1  to grasp? What would they sense at all? To sense is not to know. And  truth can be but filled with knowledge and with nothing else.
W2:WIS.2  the mind has taken as replacement for the goal of self-deception.  Truth can be its aim as well as lies. The senses then will seek
W2:251.1  My only need I did not recognize. But now I see that I need only  truth. In that, all needs are satisfied, all cravings end, all hopes
W2:252.2  Reveal it now to me who am Your Son, that I may waken to the  truth in You and know that Heaven is restored to me.
W2:254.1  Word. I have no prayer but this: I come to You to ask You for the  truth. And truth is but Your Will, which I would share with You
W2:254.1  have no prayer but this: I come to You to ask You for the truth. And  truth is but Your Will, which I would share with You today.
W2:255.1  Son. And let the peace I choose be mine today bear witness to the  truth of what He says. God's Son can have no cares and must remain
W2:WIB.3  revert to fear, where every dream is born. For only love creates in  truth, and truth can never fear. Made to be fearful, must the body
W2:WIB.3  fear, where every dream is born. For only love creates in truth, and  truth can never fear. Made to be fearful, must the body serve the
W2:WIB.5  be, you will believe that it is one with you. Your safety lies in  truth and not in lies. Love is your safety. Fear does not exist.
W2:262.2 We who are one would recognize this day the  truth about ourselves. We would come home and rest in unity. For
W2:269.1  to me and through His lessons to surpass perception and return to  truth. I ask for the illusion which transcends all those I made.
W2:270.1  Your Son acknowledges his Father, lets his dreams be brought to  truth, and waits expectantly the one remaining instant more of time,
W2:WIC.3  of your holy mind. This is the only part of you that has reality in  truth. The rest is dreams. Yet will these dreams be given unto Christ
W2:WIC.4  to all your dreams and bids them come to Him to be translated into  truth. He will exchange them for the final dream which God appointed
W2:271.1  the sounds I want to hear, the witnesses to what I want to be the  truth for me. Today I choose to look upon what Christ would have me
W2:272.1 Father, the  truth belongs to me. My home is set in Heaven by Your will and mine.
W2:274.1  and his friend. Through this I am redeemed. Through this as well the  truth will enter where illusions were, light will replace all
W2:277.2  because he is his Father's Son. And he cannot be bound unless God's  Truth can lie and God can will that He deceive Himself.
W2:278.1  do not know my Father or my Self. And I am lost to all reality. For  truth is free, and what is bound is not a part of truth.
W2:278.1  all reality. For truth is free, and what is bound is not a part of  truth.
W2:278.2 Father, I ask for nothing but the  truth. I have had many foolish thoughts about myself and my creation
W2:278.2  I choose the way to You instead of madness and instead of fear. For  truth is safe and only love is sure.
W2:279.1  freedom if it be at all. Yet in reality his dreams are gone, with  truth established in their place. And now is freedom his already.
W2:280.1  I can invent imprisonment for him, but only in illusions, not in  truth. No Thought of God has left its Father's Mind. No Thought of
W2:WIHS.1 The Holy Spirit mediates between illusions and the  truth. As He must bridge the gap between reality and dreams,
W2:WIHS.1  God has given Him, to be His gift to everyone who turns to Him for  truth. Across the bridge that He provides are dreams all carried to
W2:WIHS.1  Across the bridge that He provides are dreams all carried to the  truth, to be dispelled before the light of knowledge. There are
W2:WIHS.2  entirely accomplished, learning has achieved the only goal it has in  truth. For learning, as the Holy Spirit guides it to the outcome He
W2:WIHS.2  becomes the means to go beyond itself, to be replaced by the Eternal  Truth.
W2:282.1  me. This the determination not to be asleep in dreams of death while  truth remains forever living in the joy of life. And this the choice
W2:282.2 Father, Your Name is Love, and so is mine. Such is the  truth. And can the truth be changed by merely giving it another name?
W2:282.2  Your Name is Love, and so is mine. Such is the truth. And can the  truth be changed by merely giving it another name? The name of fear
W2:282.2  name? The name of fear is simply a mistake. Let me not be afraid of  truth today.
W2:284.1  all. And suffering of any kind is nothing but a dream. Such is the  truth—at first to be but said and then repeated many times and next
W2:284.1  be considered seriously more and more, and finally accepted as the  truth. I can elect to change all thoughts that hurt. And I would go
W2:284.1  go past all reservations, and arrive at full acceptance of the  truth in them.
W2:284.2  but the joyous as Your gifts, accepting but the joyous as the  truth.
W2:287.2  signify to me the end of dreams and futile substitutions for the  truth? You are my only goal. Your Son would be as You created him.
W2:WIRW.5  taking perception with it as it goes and leaving but the  Truth to be Itself. That instant is our goal, for it contains the
W2:303.2  He is the Self that You have given me. He is but what I really am in  truth. He is the Son You love above all things. He is my Self as You
W2:305.1  in silence as this peace envelops it and gently carries it to  truth, no more to be the home of fear. For Love has come and healed
W2:307.1  one with You in being and in will, and nothing contradicts the holy  truth that I remain as You created me.
W2:WILJ.3  would condemn the world to hell along with you, accept this holy  truth: God's Judgment is the gift of the correction He bestowed on
W2:311.1 Judgment was made to be a weapon used against the  truth. It separates what it is being used against and sets it off as
W2:319.1 Here is a thought from which all arrogance has been removed, and only  truth is left. For arrogance opposes truth. But where there is no
W2:319.1  has been removed, and only truth is left. For arrogance opposes  truth. But where there is no arrogance, the truth will come
W2:319.1  For arrogance opposes truth. But where there is no arrogance, the  truth will come immediately and fill up the space the ego left
W2:WICR.3 Creation is the opposite of all illusions, for creation is the  truth. Creation is the holy Son of God, for in creation is His Will
W2:323.2 And as we pay the debt we owe to  truth—a debt which merely is the letting go of self-deceptions and

C:8.11  a heart or mind? Without union all your seeking will not reveal the  truth. And while there is a part of you that knows this, you prefer
C:8.11  cause. You look for explanations and information rather than the  truth you claim to seek. You look in judgment rather than in
C:8.11  you knew how this union worked you would surely use it to find the  truth, and for other objectives as well. You would like to be a
C:8.11  a person who could, as in a court of law, separate right from wrong,  truth from lies, fact from fiction. You do not even see that what you
C:8.11  is further separation, and that separation cannot bring about the  truth nor arise from unity.
C:8.15  what appears to be and no more. Let it not keep you from seeing the  truth, as you do not let other surface conditions hide the truth from
C:8.15  the truth, as you do not let other surface conditions hide the  truth from you. Even if you have not formerly found the truth, you
C:8.15  hide the truth from you. Even if you have not formerly found the  truth, you have recognized what is not the truth. Your body is not

C:8.15  you have recognized what is not the truth. Your body is not the  truth of who you are, no matter how much it appears to be. For now,

C:8.26  least one long remembered incident that when given to the light of  truth revealed a lie of outlandish proportions. These are the
C:8.26  memories of loved ones you were sure were trying to hurt you when in  truth they were only trying to help. The memories of situations you
C:8.26  situations you deemed meant to embarrass or destroy you that were in  truth meant to teach you what you needed to learn to lead you to a

C:8.27  detail, and yet the details mask the truth so thoroughly that all  truth is given over to illusion.
C:8.29 This is the  truth of your existence, an existence in which your eyes deceive you
C:8.29  believes not in the deception. Your days are but evidence of this  truth. What your eyes behold will one day deceive you while what your
C:9.8  that you believe it is what you are, rather than believing in the  truth. But just as you have done this, you can undo this. This is the
C:9.8  on believing in the illusion you have made, or to begin to see the  truth.
C:9.12  illusions concerning it, when undone, will quickly reveal to you the  truth because your misperceptions concerning your heart remain closer
C:9.12  your misperceptions concerning your heart remain closer to the  truth than any that you hold. The memories of your heart are the
C:9.14  this insane situation are guided by memories trying to reveal the  truth to you. They call to you from a place that you know not. The
C:9.16  love. Fear is thus the source of all illusion, love the source of  truth.
C:9.19 It has been said often that cause and effect are one in  truth. The world you see is the effect of fear. Each one of you would
C:9.24  accomplish what you seek is the replacement of illusion with the  truth, the replacement of fear with love, the replacement of your
C:9.35  of forgiveness upon you and your world. While there is no need in  truth for this forgiveness, as there is no truth to this big change
C:9.35  While there is no need in truth for this forgiveness, as there is no  truth to this big change that you believe you have undergone, your
C:9.36  of union to you. This memory of your divinity is what you seek in  truth from each special relationship you enter into, but your true
C:10.2  to you. As much as I would like it to be so, my telling you the  truth of your existence is not enough of itself to make you aware of
C:10.2  you where to look, and save you countless years of seeking where the  truth is not, if you will but seek where I bid you find.
C:10.3  you hold so dear. Your thought system is completely alien to the  truth, but completely consistent as a system. You cannot abandon one
C:10.3  but neither can you learn of it in parts. The thought system of  truth is as wholly consistent as the thought system of illusion, and
C:10.4  is at the source, and this is as true of illusion as of the  truth. You see your body as your self, and your self as “source” of
C:10.4  but in the eternal wholeness in which God and you together exist in  truth.
C:11.12  your free will like unto your Father's will, which is one with it in  truth.
C:11.16  that comes not from weakness but from strength, and that goes out to  truth and not illusion. It is a call whose answer will come to you
C:12.16  heart. So we continue, realizing that these words can express the  truth only within their ability as symbols, and that farther than
C:12.16  symbols, and that farther than where these symbols can take you, the  truth lies within your Self.
C:12.23 Separation is painful only to those who believe it can occur in  truth. What would a child's rejection or a parent's death mean to
C:13.6  or verifiable, will offer you the evidence you seek to confirm the  truth of what you are being told here. All that is required to gather

C:14.25  to it than you are. While you realize not the purpose of anything in  truth, you cannot know love or your own Self.
C:14.27  relationship with your brother, which is the only one you have in  truth. Only this relationship is real, and in it are included all
C:15.6  yet this is but a fraction of who your specialness influences. In  truth, your specialness affects everyone.
C:15.11  all they would hold dear. But which would you rather betray? The  truth or illusion? You cannot be loyal to both, and herein lies your
C:15.11  or abandon hope of receiving. And so you choose illusion over  truth and betray all that you are and the hope your brother has
C:15.12  to hell. But it also is not a difficult choice, nor one that is in  truth yours alone to make. This choice cannot be made without your

C:16.6  find, but finding it does not make it the truth, except as it is the  truth about what you choose to see. Your choice lies with God or with
C:16.10  and two sides that oppose each other. How can this be reason? The  truth opposes nothing, nor does love.

C:19.22  as it has been described, a sorting of the real from the unreal, of  truth from illusion. Despite the similarity between what this will
C:20.31  fear and rejected love. Now the reverse is true. This reversal of  truth has changed the nature of your universe and the laws by which

C:22.18  being talked about. The first we talked of earlier as the finding of  truth. The second is what we are talking of here, the finding of a
C:22.22  a first step in going beyond meaning as definition to meaning as  truth. As odd and impersonal as it will seem at first, I assure you
C:23.13  the creation of form of another kind. A wholehearted belief in the  truth about your Self is what is required to cause this to be so. It

C:27.10  your mind to accept all relationship instead? If all meaning and all  truth lies in relationship, can you be other than relationship
C:27.12  you do not understand does not mean that you are not learning the  truth. You do not understand because you think in terms of
C:27.12  on your thinking. Again you are bidden to turn to your heart for the  truth that is hidden there yet waiting to be revealed. Your heart
C:28.1  to what you have learned. As this Course bears witness to the  truth, thus must your lives bear witness. Lest this too be distorted,
C:28.2  and it is not meant to be thus. How, then, you might ask, is the  truth brought to those still living in illusion?
C:30.7  dying to the body. The person who knows, truly knows, the simplest  truth of the identity of the Self no longer lives in a dualistic
C:30.9  traveled far from words of love, words promised and words given in  truth. For no love is finite in nature. Love has no beginning and no
C:30.14  they cannot go unfulfilled. Giving and receiving are thus one in  truth. God's laws are generalizable and do not change, and thus the
C:31.3 How silly is it to be afraid of the  truth? Fear of the truth is like a fear of the impossible being
C:31.3 How silly is it to be afraid of the truth? Fear of the  truth is like a fear of the impossible being possible. Like the fear
C:31.7  your understanding of you. Form mimics content. Form mimics the  truth, but does not replace it.
C:31.8 The rest of your world imitates  truth as well. You live on one world, one planet, one Earth. You may

C:31.14  clings to the idea of separation, and thus cannot grasp the basic  truth of your existence: that giving and receiving are one in truth.
C:31.14  basic truth of your existence: that giving and receiving are one in  truth. Put another way, all this says is that in order to be your
C:31.16  ego that deems honesty a game; the ego that you let decide upon your  truth. For what you live is what you believe is the truth about
C:31.16  decide upon your truth. For what you live is what you believe is the  truth about yourself. While you continue to live dishonestly, your
C:31.18 The  truth is your identity. Honesty is being free of deception. You, who
C:31.19 You cannot be honest while you do not know the  truth about yourself. If you remembered your Self, notions such as
C:31.20  ashamed of, nothing to keep hidden, leaving you with nothing but the  truth of who you are. Thus, what you give through sharing you gain in
C:31.20  of who you are. Thus, what you give through sharing you gain in  truth. No other type of gain is possible.
C:31.21  which brought to love are accomplished and simply become the  truth that has always existed about who you are.
C:31.23  which the holy relationship you have with everything is revealed in  truth. This truth lies within everything that exists, as it lies
C:31.23  relationship you have with everything is revealed in truth. This  truth lies within everything that exists, as it lies within you. As
C:31.23  love, no deception is possible, and you can only be who you are in  truth.
C:31.24 What you gain in  truth is never lost or forgotten again, because it returns
C:31.25 Your ego thoughts can never share the  truth with you nor with anyone else. The ego invented the idea of
C:31.25  you nor with anyone else. The ego invented the idea of “telling” the  truth and using it as an opposite to telling an untruth or lie. Thus
C:31.25  an untruth or lie. Thus were born ideas of being able to keep  truth a secret, one of the most ridiculous ideas of the ego thought
C:31.26 Your past has nothing to do with the  truth about who you are, except in the degree to which it has or has
C:31.26  has not helped you to remember who you are. What you have learned in  truth resides in your mind as a part of you. What you have not yet
C:31.26  other words, awaits the transfer of your feelings and experience to  truth, and thus to your mind. Only the truth abides within your mind,
C:31.26  feelings and experience to truth, and thus to your mind. Only the  truth abides within your mind, for only it can enter the holy altar
C:31.27 This altar is not a thing, but a devotion to the one  truth, the whole truth. Being of one mind is being of one truth, and
C:31.27 This altar is not a thing, but a devotion to the one truth, the whole  truth. Being of one mind is being of one truth, and how can you be of
C:31.27  to the one truth, the whole truth. Being of one mind is being of one  truth, and how can you be of anything less? Only the ego sprang from
C:31.27  that created the illusion of separate minds and varying degrees of  truth.
C:31.28  not what you seek, what you find varies. Since there is only one  truth, finding a variety of answers means nothing. If you but change
C:31.29  and sisters want to see, they can learn nothing from you. If your  truth about who you think you are changes day-to-day, you are
C:31.31 When you find the  truth of any brother or sister, you find the truth about your Self,
C:31.31 When you find the truth of any brother or sister, you find the  truth about your Self, for the truth does not change. And if who you
C:31.31  any brother or sister, you find the truth about your Self, for the  truth does not change. And if who you truly are is the truth, how can
C:31.31  Self, for the truth does not change. And if who you truly are is the  truth, how can you be different? Thus it can be said that the truth
C:31.31  is the truth, how can you be different? Thus it can be said that the  truth and the mind are one in truth. The truth is what is. What is
C:31.31  Thus it can be said that the truth and the mind are one in  truth. The truth is what is. What is not the truth is illusion. Does
C:31.31  it can be said that the truth and the mind are one in truth. The  truth is what is. What is not the truth is illusion. Does this not
C:31.31  and the mind are one in truth. The truth is what is. What is not the  truth is illusion. Does this not make perfect sense?
C:31.32 It is in this perfect sense of the perfect sanity of  truth that salvation lies. Salvation is simply your return to your
C:31.33 If your sister and brother seek the  truth, or salvation, from you, and you seek the truth, or salvation
C:31.33  and brother seek the truth, or salvation, from you, and you seek the  truth, or salvation from them, what is truly occurring? How can this
C:31.33  This is but another aspect of giving and receiving being one in  truth. Giving and receiving are both taking place, both at the same
C:31.34  to know, or remember, who you are. It is in your recognition of the  truth about your brother and sister that you recognize the truth
C:31.34  of the truth about your brother and sister that you recognize the  truth about your Self. It is only in relationship that this occurs,
C:32.2  seek the wisdom of your heart you call upon me. When you seek the  truth that is in your mind, you call upon the Holy Spirit. Thus is
C:32.2  that you are of one Mind and one Heart, and that regardless of this  truth you will not, in coming to know and experience this, lose your
C:32.3 Thus we end this Course with love given and love received in  truth. You are the learner here until you realize that you are Love.
T1:1.4  It is in the present-moment experience memory provides that  truth rather than illusion can now be experienced and learned from.
T1:1.5 All that you have experienced in  truth is love. All that illusion provided you with was nothing. Thus
T1:1.5  remember and re-experience is that of separating illusion from the  truth. This act will require no effort for what you have learned in
T1:1.5  if you trust your heart, be perfectly able to identify illusion and  truth. This is a simple act of recognizing meaning. All that you
T1:1.6  and learning goals of this Course. The mechanics of the mind can in  truth be left behind now as we concentrate rather on the art of
T1:1.10  that knows no bounds, “this is what it is to experience and know the  truth. This is what it is to create, for this is what it is like to
T1:1.10  the mind joined in union will now, more and more, recognize only  truth and experience only the truly real.
T1:1.12  Be willing now to apply the art of thought to the experience of  truth.
T1:2.1  that needs to come to an end. This ending is but a beginning in  truth and has led you to readiness to learn the art of thought.
T1:2.3 To experience the  truth and apply to that experience the thoughts of the ego-mind, the
T1:2.3  the same thoughts that were applied to former experiences of the  truth, would be to respond to love the same way again. The questions
T1:2.6  lifetime deadened many of your feelings. It led you so far from the  truth that you no longer trust in it. It confused the smallest issues
T1:2.7  further entrenched the ego-mind. To think that you could learn the  truth of who you are through these same means was the fallacy that
T1:2.11  by the simple statement of giving and receiving being one in  truth. The implications of this statement are far broader than at
T1:3.1  learning. They are but opportunities to replace illusion with the  truth so that the truth of who you are is all that remains.
T1:3.1  are but opportunities to replace illusion with the truth so that the  truth of who you are is all that remains.
T1:3.2  how different from the experience of illusion is the experience of  truth is the same as seeing how different the art of thought is from
T1:3.3  the higher order. Because of all of this, it cannot experience the  truth and so exists in illusion.
T1:3.4 The experience of  truth dispels illusion and thus the ego-mind. The art of thought
T1:3.5  that depends on it. How can you be convinced to live as if the  truth were otherwise? For only if you begin to live as if the truth
T1:3.5  if the truth were otherwise? For only if you begin to live as if the  truth were otherwise can you see that it truly is otherwise, or based
T1:3.6 The only way for you to come to live in  truth is through faith; not a faith in what might be, but a faith in
T1:4.2  order for all your thoughts to become the miracles that express the  truth of who you are. This Treatise will put your instruction fully
T1:4.17  but lead to a continuation of the belief in different forms of the  truth.
T1:4.18  is being taught here in order to prevent just such a conclusion. The  truth is the truth and not dependent upon your definition of it. A

T1:4.21  the thinking of the ego-mind. The art of thought will reveal the  truth to you. The thinking of the ego-mind would simply reinterpret
T1:4.22  self-congratulation in favor of Self-revelation. The saying, “The  truth shall be revealed to you” is the same as saying “Your Self
T1:5.4  would fear that may actually grow stronger as you get closer to the  truth. This is the part of you that believes this communication
T1:5.8 In order to experience the  truth, you must move into a state that is real. Nothing is as real as
T1:5.10  with the only thought system that is real, the thought system of the  truth. How could a thought system based on anything but the truth
T1:5.10  of the truth. How could a thought system based on anything but the  truth lead to anything but illusion?
T1:6.1  and this is why it can be unlearned. The thought system of the  truth is always present as the truth is always present and can be
T1:6.1  unlearned. The thought system of the truth is always present as the  truth is always present and can be neither learned nor unlearned. It

T1:6.2  Said in another way, prayer reproduces the truth and allows the  truth to exist as it is. Prayer does this because it is the act of

T1:6.4  is, like much you have learned, close to the truth without being the  truth.
T1:7.2  suffering. Even those who understand as completely as possible the  truth of who they are accept suffering. My use of the word accept is
T1:7.2  health is disease; the absence of peace is conflict, the absence of  truth illusion. This belief does not accept that there is only one
T1:7.4  matter how effective they were and no matter how much they spoke the  truth will be to not learn the new.
T1:8.3  are the greatest of changes seen. Thus the understanding of the  truth of an historical event changes over time and it may take a
T1:8.3  take a hundred or a thousand or even two thousand years for the real  truth to be realized. Even though many versions of the truth have
T1:8.3  for the real truth to be realized. Even though many versions of the  truth have been accepted previously, there is only one truth. There
T1:8.3  of the truth have been accepted previously, there is only one  truth. There was only one truth at the time the event or change took
T1:8.3  accepted previously, there is only one truth. There was only one  truth at the time the event or change took place, and there is only
T1:8.3  at the time the event or change took place, and there is only one  truth in time or eternity regardless of the variety of
T1:8.3  time or eternity regardless of the variety of interpretations of the  truth.
T1:8.4 I have come to you now to reveal the one  truth that has existed for the past two thousand years without your
T1:8.11  within which you live. In other words you live as much by myth as by  truth and myth often more accurately reflects the truth than what you
T1:8.11  much by myth as by truth and myth often more accurately reflects the  truth than what you would call real. This is not a call, however, to
T1:8.11  This is not a call, however, to embrace myth, but to embrace the  truth.
T1:8.16  state. It is one more demonstration of cause and effect being one in  truth. It is one more demonstration of what needs to occur now, in
T1:8.16  of what needs to occur now, in this time, in order for the  truth of the resurrection to be revealed and lived.
T1:9.2 Whether you be male or female matters not, as you are in  truth, the union of each. The end of separation that brought about
T1:9.6  and a receiver. You knew that giving and receiving makes one in  truth. This is your recreation of this universal truth. You
T1:9.6  makes one in truth. This is your recreation of this universal  truth. You remembered that something does not come from nothing and
T1:9.8  for the Self to be birthed, giving and receiving must be one in  truth. Yet it seems there must be one to give and one to receive. You
T1:9.8  the Christ within you does this giving and receiving become one in  truth.
T1:10.13  not chosen yet to accept your inheritance. Yet let the memory of the  truth return to you now and you will see that peace is all you have
T2:2.8 All of you are capable of hearing the  truth of what the heart would tell you. All of you are just as
T2:2.8  would tell you. All of you are just as capable of believing in that  truth as of doubting it. All that prevents you from believing in
T2:2.8  truth as of doubting it. All that prevents you from believing in  truth is a mind and heart acting in separation rather than in union.
T2:3.4  of Love and is returned to now for a specific reason. While the  truth that it is the Christ in you that learns may have been given
T2:4.8  is one that recognizes that giving and receiving are the same in  truth.
T2:5.7 Until you have fully integrated the  truth that giving and receiving are one, you will not fully believe
T2:5.7  that needs are not lacks. Until you have fully integrated the  truth that giving and receiving are one, you will not realize that
T2:7.11  who you are. This relates to giving and receiving being one in  truth in a very concrete way. For to go out into the world with the
T2:7.13  doing good works. This is about being who you are and seeing the  truth rather than the illusion that surrounds you. You cannot, in
T2:7.14  all “others” is to believe in giving and receiving being one in  truth.
T2:7.19  cannot long abide in the holy place of your heart. Then, with  truth and illusion separated, you develop the discipline to express
T2:7.20  the acceptance of the belief that giving and receiving are one in  truth changes the function of time as you know it. There is not a
T2:7.21  experience. As you experience giving and receiving being one in  truth, your belief will become true conviction. Your ability to
T2:7.21  aspect of your identity and accepted as the nature of who you are in  truth.
T2:8.1  no relationships are special. Your loyalty must be totally to the  truth of who you are and not continue to be split by special
T2:8.2  Remember too the practice of devotion for in this practice is the  truth separated from illusion.
T2:8.4  to know your Self and to act on this knowing. These are calls to  truth and but take the form of honesty for a brief time as the truth
T2:8.4  to truth and but take the form of honesty for a brief time as the  truth of who you are is revealed to you and through your
T2:8.5  or expected of you. This is an acceptance that you know your own  truth and an acceptance that that truth will not change. As we have
T2:8.5  acceptance that you know your own truth and an acceptance that that  truth will not change. As we have said that you are not called to a
T2:8.6 It was said often within A Course of Love that the  truth does not change. Thus the truth of who you are has not changed
T2:8.6  within A Course of Love that the truth does not change. Thus the  truth of who you are has not changed and you are as you were created.
T2:8.6  must be fully realized here in order for you to accept the  truth of who you are and to come to an acceptance of the unchangeable
T2:8.6  are and to come to an acceptance of the unchangeable nature of this  truth. This is akin to being done with seeking. This is the final
T2:8.6  found. You need no longer journey onto the paths of seeking. The  truth of yourself that you reveal now will not become a new truth as
T2:8.6  The truth of yourself that you reveal now will not become a new  truth as you take a new path. Your path now is sure and its final
T2:9.19  old ways of thinking leave you, you will be left as who you are in  truth.
T2:10.7  variety and level of experience. Yet no one can know more of the  truth than another, and no one can know less.
T2:10.8 Just beyond your mind's ability to call it forth lies the  truth that you and all other beings know. The access to what seems to
T2:10.14  through each day and all the experiences within it as who you are in  truth. It releases you from the feeling of needing to control or
T2:11.1  This is how you were created and how you remain. This is the  truth of who you are and even, in your own terms, a fact of your
T2:11.1  extend forgiveness to yourself and all you hold responsible for this  truth. This forgiveness has now extended in two distinct ways. First
T2:11.4  and the only thing given by you the power to do battle with the  truth, or with God. Remember now and always that you and God are one
T2:11.5 A God of love does not do battle for  truth needs no protection. The truth is not threatened by untruth.
T2:11.5 A God of love does not do battle for truth needs no protection. The  truth is not threatened by untruth. The truth simply exists as love
T2:11.5  needs no protection. The truth is not threatened by untruth. The  truth simply exists as love exists and as you exist. When we say
T2:11.5  something is, this is what it is of which we speak. When we say all  truth is generalizable, all needs are shared, all knowing is shared,
T2:11.12  still exist in relationship. This is the key to understanding the  truth of these statements. For even while you have chosen separation,
T2:11.12  that this has occurred; that what could never be true has become the  truth.
T2:12.4  They do not take away free will but free the will to respond to  truth. They are the ultimate acceptance of giving and receiving being
T2:12.4  are the ultimate acceptance of giving and receiving being one in  truth.
T2:12.6  belief in the miracle to simply knowing. Knowing is knowing the  truth. Knowing is right-thinking. Your return to knowing or
T2:13.4  put forth in this Treatise. Know that, in the time of unity, the  truth will be shared by all.
T3:1.4 A representation of the  truth not only reveals the truth but becomes the truth. A
T3:1.4 A representation of the truth not only reveals the  truth but becomes the truth. A representation of what is not the
T3:1.4  of the truth not only reveals the truth but becomes the  truth. A representation of what is not the truth reveals only
T3:1.4  the truth but becomes the truth. A representation of what is not the  truth reveals only illusion and becomes illusion. Thus, as your
T3:1.4  Thus, as your personal self becomes a representation of the  truth it will become who you are in truth.
T3:1.4  becomes a representation of the truth it will become who you are in  truth.
T3:1.5  toward this goal is in developing an awareness of what is not the  truth. While the ability to distinguish between the true and the
T3:1.7  you who has not begun to experience the transformation that is, in  truth, occurring, although you may not as yet have seen the changes
T3:1.8  existed as more than a representation. While when joined with the  truth, this representation will be acknowledged as what it is and as
T3:1.8  this representation will be acknowledged as what it is and as the  truth of who you are, to erroneously have seen your former
T3:1.8  erroneously have seen your former representation of illusion as the  truth of who you are is what has led to your perception of the world
T3:1.9  the mist of illusion in which it was hidden and to be represented in  truth by the form you occupy and have previously seen as the reality
T3:1.12 To become a whole Self, with no parts hidden, a Self with no parts in  truth, is the task that I set before you and am here to help you
T3:1.13  done. We work with what we have, a form fully able to represent the  truth and, in so doing, we bring the truth to life and life to the
T3:1.13  fully able to represent the truth and, in so doing, we bring the  truth to life and life to the truth.
T3:1.13  truth and, in so doing, we bring the truth to life and life to the  truth.
T3:2.2  value. Art is a representation but it also becomes something in  truth, something that has been named art. Art becomes something in
T3:2.2  truth, something that has been named art. Art becomes something in  truth by expanding awareness, or in other words, by making something
T3:2.5  to be one with God no longer. This could not be further from the  truth and is the cause of all your suffering, for contained within
T3:2.6 We leave all of this behind now as we advance toward  truth through returning to original purpose. Your return to your
T3:2.6  unaltered state that your personal self can begin to represent the  truth for it leaves untruth, or the ego, behind. It is only this one,
T3:2.6  or the ego, behind. It is only this one, unaltered Self that is the  truth of who you are and who your brothers and sisters are as well.
T3:2.7 And yet the  truth has as many ways of being represented as does illusion.
T3:2.8  all that you call self is Self, even while both may represent the  truth as you perceive of it. Representing the truth as you perceive
T3:2.8  both may represent the truth as you perceive of it. Representing the  truth as you perceive it to be has been the righteous work of many
T3:2.8  many who have caused great harm to others and the world. There is no  truth to be found in illusion and so no representations of perceived
T3:2.8  truth to be found in illusion and so no representations of perceived  truth, no matter how intensely they have been championed, have truly
T3:2.9  to the self but only accurate or inaccurate representations of the  truth. Inaccurate representations of the truth simply have no meaning
T3:2.9  representations of the truth. Inaccurate representations of the  truth simply have no meaning and no matter how much one might try to
T3:2.9  found there. The meaningless has no ability to change the meaning of  truth. And so your Self has remained unaltered as has all to which
T3:2.10  it. You stand empty of untruth and about to embark on the journey of  truth. You stand in the transformational moment between the unreal
T3:3.6 This is the vengeful self we eliminate now. You have, in  truth, replaced judgment with forgiveness, but you have not yet fully
T3:3.6  cannot fully love yourself. Until you fully love, you do not love in  truth.
T3:3.7 Both God and Love are found in relationship where the  truth becomes known to you. When the truth becomes known to you, you
T3:3.7  found in relationship where the truth becomes known to you. When the  truth becomes known to you, you know God for you know love. Beliefs,
T3:3.8  that calls to you. You can only get there by being who you are in  truth.
T3:4.1  you to sanity by calling you to let go of illusion in favor of the  truth.
T3:4.7  replacement that will work is the replacement of illusion with the  truth. The very purpose of this Treatise is to prevent the
T3:5.1  in the hopes of filling the emptiness with the fullness of the  truth.
T3:5.8  What this means is that the illusion will be no more and  truth will reign. Such is the reign of God.
T3:7.1  speaking here of ideas. God's thought of you is an idea of absolute  truth. Your existence derives from this idea and this truth. The
T3:7.1  of absolute truth. Your existence derives from this idea and this  truth. The ego's existence derived from your idea of a separated
T3:7.2 A belief system is not needed for the  truth. Thus you can see that the beliefs put forth in “A Treatise on
T3:7.2  in “A Treatise on Unity” are necessary only to return you to the  truth. Since there are no beliefs that represent the truth of who you
T3:7.2  you to the truth. Since there are no beliefs that represent the  truth of who you are and who God is, we speak now of ideas or
T3:7.3  need for a belief system and no belief system that can represent the  truth, you have been told that you can represent the truth here. You
T3:7.3  represent the truth, you have been told that you can represent the  truth here. You cannot do this with beliefs but you can do this with
T3:7.4  is the idea that is beyond compare as you are beyond compare and the  truth is beyond compare. This is the only idea that holds true
T3:7.5  experience that made you incapable of representing who you are in  truth was the ego. The only thing within the human experience that
T3:7.5  with the ego gone, you are perfectly capable of representing the  truth of who you are and returning to an existence that is meaningful.
T3:7.9  of illusion. The Source can only be found from within the House of  Truth.
T3:7.10 The home of  truth is within you and we have just unlocked its doors.
T3:8.1 The Kingdom of God is the House of  Truth. Or better said, the House of Truth has been called the Kingdom
T3:8.1  Kingdom of God is the House of Truth. Or better said, the House of  Truth has been called the Kingdom of God. I remind you, once again,
T3:8.1  so that what you represent will move beyond representations to the  truth. Realize here the subtle difference between a symbol that
T3:8.1  here the subtle difference between a symbol that represents the  truth, and the truth, for this is what we work toward. Symbols are
T3:8.1  difference between a symbol that represents the truth, and the  truth, for this is what we work toward. Symbols are needed only in
T3:8.1  enlightened among you have beautifully symbolized or represented the  truth. These symbols or representations have been of great service
T3:8.1  of replacing the house of illusion once and for all with the home of  truth. The work that is upon you now is that of revelation of the
T3:8.2 If the Source of  Truth is within you, then it is your own revelation toward which we
T3:8.3  been the thoughts of your ego-mind. While anything other than the  truth remains real to you, your house of illusion will remain a real
T3:8.3  will remain a real structure, a structure that keeps you from the  truth as surely as would iron bars keep you within its rooms.
T3:8.9  of treasure, the representation of the true Self within the House of  Truth will cause the creation of the new.
T3:9.3 Ideas of love, or the  truth, are joined in unity and exist in relationship. All of the
T3:9.3  is given you will not doubt it but will remember that it is the  truth you had forgotten.
T3:9.4  house of illusion was just a structure built within the universe of  truth and that the universe of truth contains everything within its
T3:9.4  built within the universe of truth and that the universe of  truth contains everything within its benevolent embrace. No one
T3:9.6 The paradise that is the  truth seems to lie far beyond the house of illusion in the valley of
T3:9.7  in it. You are called to dwell in the Promised Land, the House of  Truth.
T3:10.1  forgetting. While nothing need be given up to enter the House of  Truth, or to encounter the truth, you must realize that while
T3:10.1  need be given up to enter the House of Truth, or to encounter the  truth, you must realize that while meaninglessness exists within your
T3:10.7  in the house of illusion and the present is lived in the House of  Truth? Being cognizant of this is the only way that the simultaneous
T3:10.7  it is up to you to become aware of the total change that has, in  truth, taken place.
T3:10.12  to show you a new way of living, the way of living in the House of  Truth. You will not need to learn a foreign language to dwell in this
T3:10.14  that you but think you have forgotten. As you dwell in the House of  Truth, if you do not resist unlearning the ego thought system, the
T3:11.1  be who they are. Further, they believe the personal self to be the  truth of the statement, “I am.”
T3:11.2 Those existing within the House of  Truth also feel an awareness of Self. Without necessarily being able
T3:11.2  personal self or the self alone. For those existing in the House of  Truth, “I am” has become something larger, an all-encompassing
T3:11.2  of the unity of all things with which the Self coexists in  truth and peace and love.
T3:11.3 These words,  truth and peace and love, are interchangeable in the House of Truth
T3:11.3  words, truth and peace and love, are interchangeable in the House of  Truth as their meaning there is the same. These words, like the words
T3:11.3  meaning there is the same. These words, like the words House of  Truth represent an awareness of a new reality, a new dwelling place.
T3:11.4 The word house as used in the House of  Truth does not represent a structure but a dwelling place. The word
T3:11.4  shield the personal self from all that it would fear. The House of  Truth is the dwelling place of those who no longer live in fear and
T3:11.6  earth I did not dwell in the house of illusion but in the House of  Truth. What this means is that I was aware of the truth and lived by
T3:11.6  in the House of Truth. What this means is that I was aware of the  truth and lived by the truth. I was aware of the Peace of God and
T3:11.6  What this means is that I was aware of the truth and lived by the  truth. I was aware of the Peace of God and lived within the Peace of
T3:11.7  of God lives within you. Live within the Peace of God. Live by the  truth.
T3:11.8  you are love, you live in peace, you live by or in accord with the  truth.
T3:11.9 I have called the Kingdom of God the House of  Truth rather than the House of Peace for a reason. What you are
T3:11.9  are learning is no longer that the Kingdom of God or the House of  Truth exists, but how to live within it. The question of how to live
T3:11.9  it is best addressed by concentrating on living according to the  truth.
T3:11.10  of not judging by denying any right or wrong, the difference between  truth and illusion can no longer be denied. To realize the difference
T3:11.10  illusion can no longer be denied. To realize the difference between  truth and illusion is not to call one right and the other wrong but
T3:11.10  exist. Believing in the reality of illusion will never make it the  truth.
T3:11.11  the temptation to accept the existence of a reality other than the  truth.
T3:11.12 If I can tell you in  truth that you are no different than I am, then you must see that you
T3:11.12  different than your brothers and sisters. All exist in the House of  Truth. The house of illusion exists within the House of Truth because
T3:11.12  the House of Truth. The house of illusion exists within the House of  Truth because it is where your brothers and sisters think they are.
T3:11.13  but must see them where they truly are—within the House of  Truth. As soon as you would “see” the house of illusion, you would
T3:11.14  here that you are not being asked to see anything that is not the  truth. This is why the word see is consciously used here and why we
T3:11.15  to be aware that very few realize that they exist in the House of  Truth. You will, in truth, for quite some time, be striving to remain
T3:11.15  very few realize that they exist in the House of Truth. You will, in  truth, for quite some time, be striving to remain aware even that you
T3:11.15  available within the house of illusion to promote the recognition of  truth. Do not be afraid of the house of illusion at all. What
T3:11.15  of illusion at all. What illusion can frighten those who know the  truth?
T3:11.16 This first lesson on the temptation of the human experience comes in  truth as a warning against righteousness. It comes to remind you, as
T3:11.16  the thought system of illusion with the thought system of the  truth, that having remembered the truth of who you are, you are
T3:11.16  with the thought system of the truth, that having remembered the  truth of who you are, you are called to forget the personal self who
T3:12.4 Matter or form is bound by time. Spirit is not. The House of  Truth cannot be bound by time and be a House of Truth. How then can
T3:12.4  is not. The House of Truth cannot be bound by time and be a House of  Truth. How then can the personal self begin to realize the human
T3:12.5  prior to this point, our goal was returning to your awareness the  truth of your identity. By changing our goal now, I am assuring you
T3:12.5  our goal now, I am assuring you that you have become aware of the  truth of your identity. The goal of this Course has been
T3:12.10  A physical self, able to express itself from within the House of  Truth in ways consistent with peace and love is the next step in
T3:13.4  is simply learning in accordance with the new thought system of the  truth; accepting the truth and leaving illusion behind. The new
T3:13.4  accordance with the new thought system of the truth; accepting the  truth and leaving illusion behind. The new thought system is simple
T3:13.4  The new thought system is simple to learn. What is of love is  truth. What is of fear is illusion. The temptation is to see love
T3:13.4  as you will create the new according to what you believe to be the  truth and translate into ideas.
T3:13.9  that you do believe in them. You believe, but you cannot imagine the  truth of these words really being represented in the life you live
T3:13.9  the life you live here. This you must now do. You must represent the  truth of these words with your life.
T3:13.10  acts. To do so would be to act as if this were magic rather than the  truth. To act as if this is the truth is what you are called to do.
T3:13.10  if this were magic rather than the truth. To act as if this is the  truth is what you are called to do. You may even begin by something
T3:13.12  to fear these consequences, no matter what they may be. You must, in  truth, birth the idea of benevolence and abundance.
T3:13.14  way that the personal self will be able to represent the Self in  truth.
T3:14.1  system has made way for the birth of the thought system of the  truth. The thought system of the ego was based on fear. In this time
T3:14.1  system, to a foundation of love, the basis of the thought system of  truth. While the foundation of fear, like the ego, will have left you
T3:14.2  the thought system of the ego into the thought system of the  truth, you will begin to believe in such things as benevolence and
T3:14.2  to equanimity would soon prevail, for those dwelling in the House of  Truth would not long abide with such illusions, but the pattern of
T3:14.2  would merely look back after the interlude had passed and see the  truth, realizing that a lesson had been learned and becoming aware
T3:14.3  clear to you by now that, although you dwell in the house of the  truth, you are capable of bringing with you old patterns of behavior.
T3:14.4 You are quite capable of seeing the  truth and still acting as if you see it not. This has been done for
T3:14.5  with much of your life. As you begin to dwell in the House of  Truth and see with the eyes of love, you will see far less about the
T3:14.8  of continuous decision making but simply the choice to live by the  truth of the new thought system. If you but let go the old, and with
T3:14.9  your life were caused by fear and how little consequence they had in  truth. These fearful choices took nothing from you or from others.
T3:14.10  to love to be seen in a new light, are now revealed in the light of  truth.
T3:14.12  time-bound consciousness that hangs onto the past as if it were the  truth, allows not correction to take place. The past is no more and
T3:15.4  being other than who they are. This is consistent with the  truth. Yet who anyone is, is not contingent upon whom they have
T3:15.8  before, these will seem to be remedial lessons. What they are, in  truth, are aides to help you birth the new ideas that will break the
T3:15.10  the Self, the Self that abides in unity with all within the House of  Truth. This relationship makes the Self one with all and so brings
T3:15.11  of the thought system of the ego to the thought system of the  truth. As we have said before, it is impossible to learn the new with
T3:15.11  with the thought system of the old. It is impossible to learn the  truth through the same methods that have been used in the past to
T3:15.11  that love cannot be learned. I have said here that love, peace, and  truth are interchangeable ideas within the new thought system. Thus,
T3:15.11  truth are interchangeable ideas within the new thought system. Thus,  truth, like love, is not something that you can learn. The Good News
T3:15.11  you can learn. The Good News is that you have no need to learn the  truth. The truth exists within you and you are now aware of its
T3:15.11  The Good News is that you have no need to learn the truth. The  truth exists within you and you are now aware of its reality.
T3:15.12  within this new reality, this new beginning? Through living by the  truth.
T3:15.15 You are accomplished. Giving and receiving are one in  truth. There is no loss but only gain within the laws of love.
T3:15.17  yourself to be in the past, you will not be living by the  truth but by illusion.
T3:15.18  by which you have lived. The total replacement of illusion with the  truth is what the new thought system will accomplish. Obviously, this
T3:15.18  replacement are in your hands but you are hardly empty-handed. The  truth goes with you as does the love and peace of God.
T3:16.1 Willingness to live by the  truth is the only offering you are asked to make to God. You need
T3:16.1  other offerings. No sacrifices need be made and sacrifices are, in  truth, unacceptable to God. You are asked to give up nothing but
T3:16.2  of you is the same as saying that you do not need to, and in  truth, cannot, give anything else or anything less. You do not need
T3:16.2  world will look like. You simply need to be willing to live by the  truth.
T3:16.8  already what you have sought to be. Thus, in order to live by the  truth, you must live in the world as The Accomplished and cease
T3:16.8  Accomplished and cease struggling to be other than who you are in  truth. This struggling to be other than who you are in truth is a
T3:16.8  you are in truth. This struggling to be other than who you are in  truth is a temptation of the human experience. It will come in many
T3:16.8  this aspect of the ego thought system to the thought system of the  truth.
T3:16.9 Giving and receiving are one in  truth.
T3:16.10 By saying that giving and receiving are one in  truth it is being said that you are lacking only in what you do not
T3:16.12  you would not find it difficult to live by the thought system of the  truth. This fear relates very strongly to your ideas of change and as
T3:16.14  it is being said that your only relationship is with the  truth and that you no longer have a relationship with illusion. All
T3:16.15  If you but live by the idea that representing who you are in  truth will create a new heaven on earth, you can lay aside any fears
T3:16.15  available to share in relationship are all that you would share in  truth. You will recognize that no others have a need for you to make
T3:16.15  others have a need for you to make them special for you will see the  truth of who they are rather than the illusion of who you would have
T3:16.16  to only seem to be intertwined and all encompassing. Nothing but the  truth is all encompassing. Illusion is made of parts that do not form
T3:16.17 Accept one “part” or tenet of the  truth and see the reverse take place. See how quickly the thought
T3:16.17  the reverse take place. See how quickly the thought system of the  truth builds upon itself and forms a real and true interrelated
T3:16.17  forms a real and true interrelated whole. What forms the House of  Truth is love eternal and it has always encompassed you, even unto
T3:17.1 Why would you ever have chosen to obscure the  truth? As we have already shown, to have chosen to express the Self
T3:17.5  the unobservable began a process of unlearning or forgetting of the  truth that has led, through the learning of untruth in the mechanism
T3:17.7  with a Holy Spirit in my mind and heart and as such represented the  truth. Many others by many other names have represented the truth and
T3:17.7  the truth. Many others by many other names have represented the  truth and in so doing dispelled illusion within themselves and those
T3:17.8  means of communication with the ego-self the ability to learn the  truth could not have returned to you. The “time” of the Holy Spirit
T3:17.8  and willingness to live as your true Self, to live in the House of  Truth rather than the house of illusion, is what will end the time of
T3:17.8  of illusion, is what will end the time of illusion. Just as the  truth is the truth and illusion is illusion; just as these things are
T3:17.8  is what will end the time of illusion. Just as the truth is the  truth and illusion is illusion; just as these things are what they
T3:17.8  time in which communication was needed between the illusion and the  truth, must end in order for the truth to become the one reality.
T3:17.8  needed between the illusion and the truth, must end in order for the  truth to become the one reality.
T3:18.2  Minds that have been unwilling to accept or learn an unobservable  truth, will now accept and learn from observable truth. This is why
T3:18.2  an unobservable truth, will now accept and learn from observable  truth. This is why you must become that observable truth.
T3:18.2  from observable truth. This is why you must become that observable  truth.
T3:18.4  to their minds and hearts. It is, in fact, your observance of the  truth of your brothers and sisters that is the miracle we have stated
T3:18.5 I repeat, your observance of the  truth of your brothers and sisters is the miracle.
T3:18.7 A mind and heart joined in unity observes the  truth where once a mind and heart separated by illusion observed
T3:18.8  of worship and of devotion and that you are called to observe the  truth rather than illusion no matter how real illusion may still seem
T3:18.9  mechanisms of your physical form to the new thought system of the  truth. Your body, as has been often said, is a neutral form that will
T3:18.9  realize that it will now be instructed by the thought system of the  truth. Thus your eyes will learn to observe only the truth, even unto
T3:18.9  system of the truth. Thus your eyes will learn to observe only the  truth, even unto seeing what before but seemed unobservable.
T3:18.10  is the thinking of the ego-thought system. The thought system of the  truth realizes that the external world is but a reflection of the
T3:18.10  exists within you is shared by all. This is the relationship of the  truth that unites all things and that must now become observable.
T3:19.1  physical form as it begins to be guided by the thought system of the  truth rather than the thought system of illusion. You will fear these
T3:19.9  any time to waste on such illusions. The thought system of the  truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it not in truth. The
T3:19.9  system of the truth sees no value in suffering and so sees it not in  truth. The thought system of the truth is a thought system that is
T3:19.9  in suffering and so sees it not in truth. The thought system of the  truth is a thought system that is not split by varying goals and
T3:19.11  they are, their expressions are meaningless and have no effect in  truth but only in illusion. To live in truth is to live without fear
T3:19.11  and have no effect in truth but only in illusion. To live in  truth is to live without fear of the meaningless acts of those living
T3:19.11  illusion because they will be unable to cause effect in the House of  Truth.
T3:19.15  to gather those within and bid them join you in the reality of the  truth. But in this time of Christ, a new time, a time without
T3:19.15  be to evangelize or to be convincing. You cannot argue the case of  truth in the courtroom of illusion.
T3:19.16  the one clear and only choice evident. It is a choice to live in  truth or in illusion. There are many ways that can still be found to
T3:19.16  illusion. There are many ways that can still be found to come to the  truth. But a way of getting to the truth will become so attractive
T3:19.16  can still be found to come to the truth. But a way of getting to the  truth will become so attractive that few will be able to resist. What
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
T3:20.2  illusion, and although more or less are concepts also foreign to the  truth, there is sense to be made from these concepts in regards to
T3:20.2  to be made from these concepts in regards to the learning of the  truth. As this is all that time is for, and all that time is but a
T3:20.2  pace. There is no more or less to learning in terms of knowing the  truth that you have always known, but there are degrees of
T3:20.3  in effectiveness is your own learning. Now, rather than learning the  truth, you are learning how to live by the truth. This will benefit
T3:20.3  rather than learning the truth, you are learning how to live by the  truth. This will benefit you and in so doing benefit all others.
T3:20.7  that is more realistic and even helpful than living by the laws of  truth.
T3:20.10  visualization or positive thinking. I am calling you to live by the  truth and to never deny it. To see no circumstance as cause to
T3:20.10  I am providing you with means to help you know how to live by the  truth, but the means are not the end and are never to be confused as
T3:20.11 Miracles are not the end, but merely the means, of living by the  truth. Miracles are not meant to be called upon to create specific
T3:20.11  in specific circumstances. They are meant to be lived by as the  truth is meant to be lived by. Not because you desire an outcome, but
T3:20.11  you can no longer be, live, or think as other than who you are in  truth. This is how thorough your learning must be. It is a learning
T3:20.11  of illusion but be unchanging to fit the circumstances of the  truth.

T3:20.17  you see. Turn from the dark ways of illusion and shine the light of  truth for all to see. Remain who you are and continue to live by the
T3:20.19  as every other circumstance you will encounter. You will encounter  truth or illusion and nothing else for there is nothing else. There
T3:20.19  the call to love from love, the call that welcomes all to live in  truth.

T3:21.1  Written truth is not the truth but only the arrangement of the  truth into language. You have a birth certificate that states the
T3:21.1  truth into language. You have a birth certificate that states the  truth about your birth. The birth certificate is not the truth but
T3:21.1  states the truth about your birth. The birth certificate is not the  truth but symbolic of the truth.
T3:21.1  birth. The birth certificate is not the truth but symbolic of the  truth.
T3:21.2 The  truth is not symbolic. It is. It is the same for everyone.
T3:21.3 There are no two sides to the  truth. There is not more than one truth. There is one truth.

T3:21.4 The  truth is not a concept. It is real. It is all that is real.
T3:21.5 Your real Self exists in  truth. It does not exist in illusion.
T3:21.7  for the personal self and the true Self to exist together is for the  truth to be lived in time. In order for the truth to be lived in time
T3:21.7  together is for the truth to be lived in time. In order for the  truth to be lived in time you must forget your uncertainty and be
T3:21.7  lived in time you must forget your uncertainty and be certain of the  truth.

T3:21.20  useful as that certainty is translated to the thought system of the  truth and aids you in becoming certain of your true identity. The
T3:21.20  be seen as sameness by some and will attract them to you and to the  truth you now will represent.
T3:21.21  It but calls all to love and to live in the abundance of the  truth.
T3:21.22  not that there will be no priest or guru for those who seek the  truth to turn to. It will matter not that a black man will not turn
T3:21.22  It will matter that someone will look at you and be drawn to the  truth of him- or herself that is seen reflected there. What I am
T3:21.23  if a person turns to someone “like” him- or herself to find the  truth, or if a person turns to someone totally “unlike” him- or
T3:21.23  person turns to someone totally “unlike” him- or herself to find the  truth. As has been said many times, willingness is the starting point
T3:21.24  one is called to evangelize, all are called equally to represent the  truth and to observance of the truth. That you each will do this in
T3:21.24  are called equally to represent the truth and to observance of the  truth. That you each will do this in ways unique to who you are must
T3:21.24  to the relationship between the personal self and the Self; the  truth and its representation and observance.
T3:22.1  you may be beginning to form ideas of what it means to live by the  truth, these ideas may not seem to have much relevance or
T3:22.1  something is. You think that to be asked to simply “live” by the  truth could not possibly be enough. You would like to know in what
T3:22.1  be enough. You would like to know in what direction living by the  truth will take you, for surely your life must change. The very
T3:22.2  as the one, or only one of the teachings that has led you to the  truth.
T3:22.3 You are a beautiful representation of the  truth and cannot be otherwise. You may bring this beauty to any
T3:22.3  have always dreamt of doing. Wherever you go, whatever you do, the  truth will go with you. You need no uniform nor title nor specific
T3:22.4 Since your personal self was always meant to represent the  truth of who you are, the seeds of who you are, are planted there,
T3:22.11  new Self, for you cannot observe your new Self without observing the  truth that has always existed. The truth that has always existed is
T3:22.11  new Self without observing the truth that has always existed. The  truth that has always existed is our oneness, and what you will
T3:22.11  that differences but lie in expression and representation of the  truth, never in the truth itself.
T3:22.11  but lie in expression and representation of the truth, never in the  truth itself.
T3:22.13  now is separate from what will be. In the new world, the world where  truth reigns, there is no cause for tension for there is no world of
T3:22.17  in so doing transform the personal self into a representation of the  truth. Realize that what we have called “closed eyes” observation is
T3:22.18 Embrace the new as the new embraces you. The new is but the  truth that has always existed. Go forth and live the truth with
T3:22.18  new is but the truth that has always existed. Go forth and live the  truth with impatience only for the truth. Hold this impatience to
T3:22.18  existed. Go forth and live the truth with impatience only for the  truth. Hold this impatience to your Self as eagerness for the final

T4:1.10  learning, no matter what the means, will eventually lead them to the  truth of who they are.
T4:1.11  God indirectly. These are the only two choices, the choices between  truth and illusion, fear and love, unity and separation, now and
T4:1.12  house of illusion is held within the embrace of love, of God, of the  truth. Does this sound exclusive to you? The embrace is inclusive.
T4:1.16  cause for blame exists. No cause to look back exists at all, for the  truth exists in the present. This is the same as saying the truth
T4:1.16  for the truth exists in the present. This is the same as saying the  truth exists within you. It is in this way that time is not real and
T4:1.16  real and will no longer be real to you as you come to live by the  truth. It is in this way that the truth of the past still lives and
T4:1.16  to you as you come to live by the truth. It is in this way that the  truth of the past still lives and that the illusion of the past never
T4:1.17  observation and direction communication or experience. The same  truth has always existed, but the choice of a means of coming to know
T4:1.17  has always existed, but the choice of a means of coming to know the  truth has shifted. All were chosen and all are chosen.
T4:1.18  you have chosen God and chosen a new means of coming to know the  truth—the means of Christ-consciousness, is what has ushered in the
T4:1.19 Many came to know the  truth by indirect means and shared what they came to know through
T4:1.19  effect are the same. It is these indirect means of communicating the  truth that have led to your advances in science and technology, and

T4:1.20  even unto this time. You have learned much of the nature of the  truth by seeing what you have perceived as the contrast between good

T4:1.25  in which they have lived. Others do not wish to experience the  truth directly, but only to experience experience. They are in the
T4:1.25  everything before they allow themselves to directly experience the  truth, thinking still that the experience of the truth will exclude

T4:2.16  then, could you possibly observe any others without knowing that the  truth of who they are is present even though it might seem not to be?
T4:2.16  This is the power you now have within you, the power to observe the  truth rather than illusion. This is the power to observe what is.
T4:2.27 Let this idea gestate a moment within you and reveal to you the  truth of which it speaks. The separated state of the mind created its

T4:7.1  false desire. This simply means false, or not consistent with the  truth. It does not mean wrong or bad and is itself no cause for
T4:7.3  Those who attempt to figure them out will come ever closer to the  truth by means of science, technology, and even art and literature.
T4:7.5  your heart and body has been the inability of the mind to join the  truth with your conscious awareness. While your mind did not accept
T4:7.5  with your conscious awareness. While your mind did not accept the  truth of your identity or the reality of love without fear, it

T4:8.16  subject it is not the truth. The only instance in which this is the  truth is in regards to learning who you are.
T4:9.3  teachings are leading. All of these learned works that speak the  truth—from ancient times through current times—are learned works
T4:9.5  it is not new. You have begun to see that all messages of the  truth say the same thing but in different ways. There seems to be
T4:9.5  beyond this point that you have reached in your understanding of the  truth. All the learning that you have done seems to leave you ready
T4:10.11  with knowing who you are and the ability to express who you are in  truth.
T4:12.31  that replace learning. This will help you to adapt to the  truth of a sharing you will have received even before it is
D:1.5  accomplished. What will it now take for your mind to accept this  truth? For the mind's acceptance of this truth is what is needed.
D:1.5  your mind to accept this truth? For the mind's acceptance of this  truth is what is needed.
D:1.6 Your heart knows the reality of this  truth, knows that this new reality is real and different from the
D:1.14  Christ Self. I dwell in unity. My identity is certain. This is the  truth. I am not less than I once was, but more. Where once I was
D:1.15  your remembrance. To “know” and not accept what you “know” to be the  truth is a continuation of the pattern of insanity that must be
D:1.16 Insanity is acting as if the  truth is not the truth. Sanity is accepting the truth as your reality

D:1.19  receiver, or transcriber, of this Dialogue, this Dialogue may, in  truth, feel like a dialogue, an exchange, a conversation, and wonder
D:1.20  hear it? Does it matter who is first to hear the music? This is, in  truth, a dialogue between me and you. Wish not that the “way” of the
D:1.21  the difficulty with every curriculum that has sought to teach the  truth. In order for the truth to be truly learned, you first had to
D:1.21  curriculum that has sought to teach the truth. In order for the  truth to be truly learned, you first had to enter a state in which
D:1.22  has been returned to you as you begin to live in the reality of the  truth.
D:2.2  and the action of denial—it can thus be seen that they are, in  truth, one and the same action, just as means and end, cause and
D:2.2  cause and effect are one. You are asked to accept or receive the  truth of who you are and the revelations that will show you how to
D:2.4  will but interfere with your full acceptance of who you are in  truth.
D:2.7 This is not a judgment but simply the  truth. To learn the truth and not accept it is different from
D:2.7 This is not a judgment but simply the truth. To learn the  truth and not accept it is different from learning what is necessary
D:2.7  different from learning what is necessary for a career. To learn the  truth and not accept the truth is insane. To learn the truth and not
D:2.7  is necessary for a career. To learn the truth and not accept the  truth is insane. To learn the truth and not accept the completion of
D:2.7  To learn the truth and not accept the truth is insane. To learn the  truth and not accept the completion of your learning is insane.
D:2.19  even though the systems and patterns are known not to work. In  truth, no new learning or new systems based on the learning patterns
D:3.4  new to come into being, the old must be vanquished in order for the  truth to triumph over illusion.
D:3.11 That giving and receiving are one in  truth is best understood by taking away the idea of one who gives and
D:3.12  unity, which is the same as saying giving and receiving are one in  truth. A shared consciousness is the truth of who you are. The
D:3.12  giving and receiving are one in truth. A shared consciousness is the  truth of who you are. The elevation of the personal self, however,
D:3.15  your brothers and sisters in Christ. You are a representation of the  truth. You are a representation of all that is given and received in
D:3.15  truth. You are a representation of all that is given and received in  truth. You are a representation of creation. A representation of
D:3.16  Self is a full participant in this dialogue. You as the Self are the  truth. You as the Self are the creator and the created. You as the
D:3.21  a quality of Christ-consciousness. Thus you are already aware of the  truth of giving and receiving being one. This awareness exists within
D:4.14  thought are thus the foundation upon which how you live arises. The  truth is a system of thought. It exists in wholeness and has always
D:4.15  arose from the separated self are those you have accepted as the  truth. Some of these systems of thought were part of the divine
D:4.26  that they may as well be prison walls. You may even be a prisoner in  truth, and wonder how, save a grand escape, you can proceed. But I
D:5.3  of the ego self led to the world you see, it did not change the  truth but only created illusion. Thus the truth is still available to
D:5.3  see, it did not change the truth but only created illusion. Thus the  truth is still available to be seen.
D:5.4  representation of the world within, and as you become aware of the  truth represented in all that encompasses and surrounds you, the
D:5.5  still represents what is and thus contains all meaning or the  truth.
D:5.7  truly saw and understood the body and its acts as representative of  truth. You have thought the things you do represent your drives, but
D:5.8  for in the becoming it would need to take on the properties of the  truth. Think of the ego again as an example here. The ego but seemed
D:5.8  to be who you were for a time. Now that you know who you are in  truth, the ego does not remain, a separate entity with a life of its
D:5.8  own. No. The ego is gone. Because it was a lie its exposure to the  truth dissolved it.
D:5.9  you look the lie of false representation will be exposed and the  truth will be represented once again. As was said earlier, this
D:5.9  be represented once again. As was said earlier, this seeing of the  truth is the first step as it is the step necessary for the
D:5.10  might previously have thought of as inconsequential in the light of  truth. Everything given represents the truth.
D:5.10  in the light of truth. Everything given represents the  truth.
D:5.11  to reinterpret but to accept revelation. You will not arrive at the  truth through thinking about what everything means. This is the old
D:5.11  what is rather than to be what is. Now, as you join with the  truth, your representation, in the new time that is before us, will
D:5.11  but will return to being as it was intended and will represent the  truth of who you are. This true representation, being of the truth,
D:5.11  the truth of who you are. This true representation, being of the  truth, returns you to the reality of the truth where you exist in
D:5.11  being of the truth, returns you to the reality of the  truth where you exist in oneness.
D:5.14  was created to show the way back to Self and God to be what it is in  truth. This is the return of love to love. This is acceptance of your
D:5.19 This is what we discuss today. We discuss being what you represent in  truth. We discuss the elevation of form. And what we have discussed
D:6.2  out the insanity of your perception and the perfect sanity of the  truth. For some of you the repetition of the properties of the false
D:6.6  they are or what you have determined their use to be. There is thus  truth, or what we might call the seeds of the truly real, or the
D:6.13  has been a grand facilitator of the human spirit's quest for the  truth and is part of what brought you, finally, to the quest to know
D:6.22  bone, and it is also the form that is now serving to represent the  truth of who you are. How might this change the “laws” of the body,
D:7.27  you is the circle of shared consciousness, the circle of unity. In  truth, this circle is everything, the All of All, the universe, God.
D:9.3  and in that thinking to come up with a definition of who you are, a  truth of who you are, a certainty about who you are. You have been
D:9.6  with that change, new patterns apply. This does not mean that the  truth has changed, but that you have changed; and with your change,
D:9.6  has changed, but that you have changed; and with your change, the  truth, while it remains the truth, can now be presented in a way that
D:9.6  have changed; 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
D:11.12  will ever be good enough for those who set limits upon the  truth. But for those willing to open their minds and hearts to a new
D:11.16  is in everyone's hearts, to what is shared in unity, to what is the  truth of who we all are rather than the truth of who the individual
D:11.16  in unity, to what is the truth of who we all are rather than the  truth of who the individual is.
D:11.17 There is no  truth inherent in the individual, separated self, but only illusion.
D:11.17  but illusion can provide no place in which the seeking ends and the  truth is found.
D:11.18  Unity is the Source of these words. So is it said. So is it the  truth.
D:12.15  share these thoughts, or to deliver them with the authority of the  truth simply because you have known that they are true, and because
D:12.15  known that they are true, and because you realized, as soon as the  truth came into your mind, how seldom in the past you have been sure
D:12.15  idea you were offering up for discussion, but something you knew the  truth about!
D:12.16  as well, have experienced the fading of your certainty about this  truth over time. It may have been your inability to convey this
D:12.16  this truth over time. It may have been your inability to convey this  truth, another's reaction to this truth, or simple doubt that arose
D:12.16  been your inability to convey this truth, another's reaction to this  truth, or simple doubt that arose within your thinking, but
D:12.16  carry within you the moment of realization—the moment in which the  truth was known to you without doubt, known to you without
D:12.16  certainty, you will never be so sure again that you cannot know the  truth. Adding the phrase “beyond a shadow of a doubt” will be
D:12.16  will be something you no longer need add to your knowing of the  truth because you will realize its redundancy.
D:12.17  certainty, when the reverse is what is true. It is sane to know the  truth. It is insane not to know the truth.
D:12.17  is true. It is sane to know the truth. It is insane not to know the  truth.
D:12.18  your personal or individual self with the “figuring out” of this  truth. Others of you will have recognized the “voice” of authority
D:12.18  of you will have recognized the “voice” of authority with which this  truth came to you as something other than your usual thoughts, other
D:12.18  that your self was involved, somehow, in this coming to know of the  truth, even if this coming to know of the truth wasn't quite “of” the
D:12.18  this coming to know of the truth, even if this coming to know of the  truth wasn't quite “of” the “you” of the personal self.
D:13.1 There is no danger, in this time, that you will know the  truth and then discover that you were wrong. You know the difference
D:13.9  will bear the mark of your perspective, and that is why partial  truth is never the whole truth, and why the whole truth is the only
D:13.9  your perspective, and that is why partial truth is never the whole  truth, and why the whole truth is the only truth.
D:13.9  is why partial truth is never the whole truth, and why the whole  truth is the only truth.
D:13.9  truth is never the whole truth, and why the whole truth is the only  truth.
D:13.11  and while you may feel unable to share or express the authority and  truth you know it represents, you will, by living according to what
D:13.11  represents, you will, by living according to what you know to be the  truth, form the very relationships and union that will allow the
D:13.11  the truth, form the very relationships and union that will allow the  truth to be shared. The relationship or union, in other words,
D:15.15  you to be in relationship with you, never realizing that this is, in  truth, what animates you, that this is that without which you cease
D:16.11 And yet giving and receiving are one in  truth. All of the principles of creation are in accord with this
D:16.11  in truth. All of the principles of creation are in accord with this  truth, and thus these truths occur in unison or in union. Becoming is
D:17.1  It is a following after that occurs in time and space rather than in  truth. It is never about one. It is not about replacement. It comes
D:Day1.1  no real cause to request. Why must Jesus be accepted? Why cannot the  truth be accepted? Why cannot everyone hold their distinct beliefs as
D:Day1.1  hold their distinct beliefs as long as they are beliefs in the  truth?
D:Day1.2  is not belief, it is not prayer. I care not in what form of the  truth you believe, nor to what god you believe you send your prayers;
D:Day1.2  prayers; although if you do not believe in your Self above a form of  truth, and if you continue to send your prayers to a god who is other
D:Day1.8  am. This is akin to saying Love is. I am what is. I am the way, the  truth, and the life.
D:Day1.10  space without a space craft. I have been trained, I understand the  truth about outer space, I believe in my abilities; but I do not
D:Day2.9 These are mainly, in  truth, judgments, judgments that arise from your conscience, from
D:Day3.11  fresh and inspired ideas. You do not, however, see that these are in  truth linked as givens, for you do not see that all are gifted.
D:Day3.25  learned is not true. What you learned is insane. But to realize the  truth you must now fully reject the untruths that you learned. You
D:Day3.46  evidence you could cite as a response to your requests, see not the  truth of the situation.
D:Day3.47 You still believe the  truth of the situation to be the reality of physical form and of what
D:Day3.58  which you are in relationship with what is beyond learning. It is in  truth, a state in which you enter into an alternative reality, the
D:Day4.2  of saying all that you have learned; on the other side will be the  truth, the new temptations that will incite you to leave behind the
D:Day4.18  one world-view only to replace it with another of no greater  truth or value. My challenge has been reacted to as a challenge to be
D:Day4.21  is another cause of your anger—one of the primary causes, in  truth. Not only has all that you have learned led to an inaccurate
D:Day4.25  of the self as separate and alone, you could not learn the  truth no matter how much attention you paid, no matter how mightily
D:Day4.25  matter how mightily you tried. For on your own you cannot learn the  truth. On your own, only illusion can be learned, for your starting
D:Day4.26  and the place to which you desire access. As all that exists in  truth, union is means and end.
D:Day4.27 To know the basic  truth of who you are—that you are a being who exists in unity
D:Day4.27  the access that you seek. Without knowing this, without knowing the  truth of your existence, how could you be done with learning? This
D:Day4.27  is not the way to the access that you seek. As all that exists in  truth, the truth of who you are is means and end as well.
D:Day4.27  way to the access that you seek. As all that exists in truth, the  truth of who you are is means and end as well.
D:Day4.39  willing to say that you can go only so far in your acceptance of the  truth of who you really are, then our purpose of being together here
D:Day4.42  in this elevated place. You are still the self of form despite the  truth that you are literally with me in a place of high elevation. Is
D:Day4.51  you still known relationship, fear could not have separated you from  truth and you would not have dwelt in illusion. The relationship of
D:Day4.53  have disguised your fear, to move you beyond false learning to the  truth that only needs to be accepted. If you can move forward without
D:Day4.54  your first glimpse of wholeness, of oneness with God. To know the  truth of your inheritance.
D:Day5.2 For each of you this access point will in  truth be the same, but perhaps quite different in the action which
D:Day5.13  you have felt you “have” love to give. You thus have long known the  truth of giving and receiving as one within your own heart. You might
D:Day5.16  might say healing is one of the ways the healer expresses love. In  truth healing and love are the same.
D:Day6.13  in returning to one of the main themes of this chapter—the simple  truth that you are having to go about this creative process while
D:Day6.21  created to exist both within the body and beyond the body. It is, in  truth, the portal of access we have spoken of, a connection with the
D:Day8.4  your desire for your unhappiness to be gone, is very unlikely, in  truth, to stem from the details of your life. Even so, you are not
D:Day8.5  need a job that you do not like, but in acceptance of the simple  truth that you do not like your job, you have accepted your Self and
D:Day8.13  and that this intolerance will take the form of seeing only the  truth rather than attempting to combat illusion. Thus when you see
D:Day8.13  Thus when you see others gossiping, you are called to see only the  truth of who they are—to see beyond the illusion, what would seem
D:Day8.18  of others. You will think that you know the real from the unreal,  truth from illusion, and so will disregard the feelings of others as
D:Day8.19 Does this seem confusing? To be called to see only the  truth, to see beyond illusion, and then to be told to accept the
D:Day8.19  of others? It should not. While true compassion sees only the  truth, this does not mean it holds the feelings of anyone—not those
D:Day8.19  does not mean it holds the feelings of anyone—not those living in  truth, or those living in illusion—in disregard. This disregard is
D:Day8.21  that by being in the present you know your feelings are of the  truth. This is certainty. This is all that will prevent you from
D:Day9.7 Realize now the  truth of what you have just heard. While you know you have not
D:Day9.7  believe you have allowed yourself freedom of feeling. And yet if the  truth be admitted, you know that even this is not quite true. You
D:Day9.25  a given form that is perfect for your expression of the beauty and  truth of who you are. You cannot express the beauty and truth of who
D:Day9.25  beauty and truth of who you are. You cannot express the beauty and  truth of who another is. You cannot express the beauty and truth of a
D:Day9.25  and truth of who another is. You cannot express the beauty and  truth of a future self. You can only express the beauty and truth of
D:Day9.25  and truth of a future self. You can only express the beauty and  truth of who you are now, in the present. And you do. You just have
D:Day9.27  the ego, has been able to keep you from expressing the beauty and  truth of who you are. You came into the world of form incapable of
D:Day9.27  into the world of form incapable of not expressing the beauty and  truth of who you are. That you are is an expression of beauty and
D:Day9.27  truth of who you are. That you are is an expression of beauty and  truth. You express the beauty and truth of who you are by being
D:Day9.27  are is an expression of beauty and truth. You express the beauty and  truth of who you are by being alive. It has only been your inability
D:Day9.27  In a certain sense, your ability to express the beauty and  truth of who you are has been taught out of you by learning practices
D:Day9.29 All you need do is look at a young child to see the joy, beauty, and  truth of expression. You, too, were once a young child. You are still
D:Day9.30  fan the flames of your desire to be, and to express, who you are in  truth.
D:Day10.24  your brothers and sisters in Christ as it does from me. It comes, in  truth, from our union, from the consciousness we share. This shared
D:Day10.33  returning you, and all your brothers and sisters, to who they are in  truth. This cannot be done from without but must be done from within.
D:Day11.2  even while it does not unite the world of illusion with the world of  truth. Sharing in unity and relationship is the way and the means to
D:Day11.2  is the way and the means to see past the world of illusion to the  truth of the union of form and spirit, separate selves and the One
D:Day11.6  is as unknowable as the All of Everything. To be separate in  truth would be to not exist. To be the All of Everything would be to
D:Day11.6  that it exists. Thus relationship is everything. Relationship is the  truth. Relationship is consciousness.
D:Day17.10  Mary represented incarnation through relationship, demonstrating the  truth of union, the birth of form, and the ascension of the body.
D:Day18.2  working together will be essential for the birth of the new and in  truth symbolizes it in form and process. As within, so without. Mary
D:Day18.5 To be an example life is to be what you represent in  truth. Followers of all faiths are called to example lives and to
D:Day18.5  faiths are called to example lives and to representation of the same  truth. All faith is faith in the unknown through knowing, as a
D:Day18.7 The  truth represented by Jesus and Mary was represented as a visual
D:Day18.7  now called to do. Whether you demonstrate the myth of duality or the  truth of union, you are demonstrating the same thing. The way in
D:Day18.8 Feelings are your awareness of the present and thus of the  truth. They are your means of coming to know. They arise from
D:Day18.9  had not been true, the cause of life would not have been a cause of  truth. Just as neither brain nor heart alone provide for a
D:Day19.4  content—your wholeness. Those who use their gifts to create the  truth they see are those who in “doing” find their way to true
D:Day19.8  Together, the way of Mary and the way of Jesus demonstrate the  truth of as within, so without and the relationship between the inner
D:Day19.13  within consciousness by holding open this door to creation. They, in  truth, create a new pattern and begin to weave it into the web of
D:Day19.14 The  truth of this way is not discovered through the passing on of
D:Day19.14  relationship. Those following the way of Mary become mirrors of the  truth they discover, reflecting the way to their brothers and
D:Day20.1  relied upon so that you begin to rely more and more fully on the  truth of this dialogue.
D:Day20.5 The  truth is the truth. It doesn't change. It is the same for everyone.
D:Day20.5 The truth is the  truth. It doesn't change. It is the same for everyone.
D:Day20.6 What, then, is the unknown? The reception and expression of  truth.
D:Day20.9 In other words, all the  truth and all the wisdom that is available but unknown to you, takes
D:Day20.9  you to make it known. And if this is the only way that the beauty,  truth, and wisdom of the One Self can be made known, then you are the
D:Day28.16  conditions. It makes no sense, however, to accept what is not the  truth. Most of what is not the truth has been identified as old
D:Day28.16  however, to accept what is not the truth. Most of what is not the  truth has been identified as old thought patterns. This is all that
D:Day28.24  and will be like no other. The thread represents your own journey to  truth, your own journey to wholeness.
D:Day31.2  You “know” the experience because you have “had” the experience. The  truth that you are the experience escapes you.
D:Day32.15  to you of the nature of life and God, it has revealed to you the  truth of relationship. As has been said before, if separation had
D:Day33.3  One cannot exist without the other and thus both are one in  truth. This is the divine marriage, the divine relationship of form
D:Day36.12  in your separate reality. A separate reality that cannot exist in  truth but only in illusion.

W1:61.9  first of a number of giant steps we will take in the next few weeks.  Try today to begin to build a firm foundation for these advances.

W1:65.3  Try, if possible, to undertake the daily extended practice periods at
W1:65.3  extended practice periods at approximately the same time each day.  Try, also, to determine this time today in advance and then adhere to
W1:65.6  concentrate only on thoughts related to the idea for today. Rather,  try to uncover each thought that arises which would interfere with
W1:65.8 After a while, interfering thoughts will become harder to find.  Try, however, to continue a minute or so longer, attempting to catch
W1:65.10 You need not use these exact words, but  try to get a sense of being willing to have your illusions of purpose
W1:66.3 Today we will  try to go past this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the truth
W1:66.7  Try to see the logic in this sequence, even if you do not yet accept
W1:66.12  Holy Spirit's Voice. You will listen to madness or hear the truth.  Try to make this choice as you think about the premises on which our
W1:66.13  one side stand all illusions. All truth stands on the other. Let us  try today to realize that only the truth is true.
W1:67.5 After you have gone over several such related thoughts,  try to let all thoughts drop away for a brief preparatory interval,
W1:67.5  all thoughts drop away for a brief preparatory interval, and then  try to reach past all your images and preconceptions about yourself
W1:67.8  Try to realize in the shorter practice periods that this is not your

W1:68.9  feel safety surrounding you, hovering over you, and holding you up.  Try to believe, however briefly, that nothing can harm you in any
W1:69.4 Very quietly now, with your eyes closed,  try to let go of all the content which generally occupies your
W1:69.6  importance of what you are trying to do for yourself and the world,  try to settle down in perfect stillness, remembering only how much
W1:69.8  indeed be sure that it is given you, and you will yet receive it.  Try, as you attempt to go through the clouds to the light, to hold
W1:69.8  the clouds to the light, to hold this confidence in your mind.  Try to remember that you are at last joining your will to God's. Try
W1:69.8  Try to remember that you are at last joining your will to God's.  Try to keep the thought clearly in mind that what you undertake with
W1:70.12 Now we will  try again to reach the light in you, which is where your salvation
W1:70.13  when you could so easily walk on into the light of real salvation.  Try to pass the clouds by whatever means appeals to you. If it helps
W1:71.15  Try to remember the idea for today some six or seven times an hour.
W1:72.8  is the universal belief of the world you see. Some hate the body and  try to hurt and humiliate it. Others love the body and try to glorify
W1:72.8  the body and try to hurt and humiliate it. Others love the body and  try to glorify and exalt it. But while it stands at the center of
W1:72.9 We will  try today to stop these senseless attacks on salvation. We will try
W1:72.9  will try today to stop these senseless attacks on salvation. We will  try to welcome it instead. Your upside-down perception has been
W1:72.9  from your awareness by the body's limitations. Now we are going to  try to see this differently.
W1:72.11  therefore attacking what we do not recognize. Now we are going to  try to lay judgment aside and ask what God's plan for us is:
W1:73.4 Today we will  try once more to reach the world that is in accordance with your
W1:74.2  rise to illusions. Without illusions, conflict is impossible. Let us  try to recognize this today and experience the peace this recognition
W1:74.11 After you have cleared your mind in this way, close your eyes and  try to experience the peace to which your reality entitles you. Sink
W1:74.12  slipping off into withdrawal, quickly repeat the idea for today and  try again. Do this as often as necessary. There is definite gain in
W1:74.15 Then  try to find what you are seeking. A minute or two every half-hour,
W1:79.7  the answer to it. We will not assume that we already know. We will  try to free our minds of all the many different kinds of problems
W1:79.7  the many different kinds of problems that we think we have. We will  try to realize that we have only one problem, which we have failed to
W1:79.12 Then  try to suspend all judgment about what the problem is. If possible,
W1:R2.2  listen. Repeat the first phase if you find your mind wandering, but  try to spend the major part of the practice period listening quietly
W1:87.5  can become afraid only when I believe that there is another will. I  try to attack only when I am afraid, and only when I try to attack
W1:87.5  another will. I try to attack only when I am afraid, and only when I  try to attack can I believe that my eternal safety is threatened.
W1:91.5  today, set aside about ten minutes for a quiet time in which you  try to leave your weakness behind. This is accomplished very simply,
W1:91.12 In the second phase of the exercise period,  try to experience these truths about yourself. Concentrate
W1:91.12  you are a body, a belief that is mistaken and deserves no faith.  Try to remove your faith from it, if only for a moment. You will
W1:92.9  stands ready to embrace you as Its own. Such is the meeting place we  try today to find and rest in, for the peace of God is where your
W1:93.11  created or what you made. One Self is true; the other is not there.  Try to experience the unity of your One Self. Try to appreciate its
W1:93.11  other is not there. Try to experience the unity of your One Self.  Try to appreciate its holiness and the love from which it was
W1:93.11  to appreciate its holiness and the love from which it was created.  Try not to interfere with the Self which God created as you by hiding
W1:93.12  able to use the first five minutes of each hour for these exercises.  Try, however, to do so when you can. At least remember to repeat
W1:93.14 Then  try to devote at least a minute or so to closing your eyes and
W1:94.5 Now  try to reach the Son of God in you. This is the Self that never
W1:95.3  Self, which is united with its Creator. In patience and in hope we  try again today.
W1:95.8  a refusal to let your mistakes be corrected and an unwillingness to  try again.
W1:95.12  and nothing else is true. Today we will affirm this truth again and  try to reach the place in you in which there is no doubt that only
W1:95.19  all the world. And Heaven looks to you in confidence that you will  try today. Share, then, its surety, for it is yours. Be vigilant. Do

W1:121.11 Now close your eyes and see him in your mind and look at him a while.  Try to perceive some light in him somewhere—a little gleam which
W1:121.11  light in him somewhere—a little gleam which you had never noticed.  Try to find some little spark of brightness shining through the ugly

W1:121.12  perception for a while, and turn your mind to one you call a friend.  Try to transfer the light you learned to see around your former

C:P.14 Oh, Child of God, you have no need to  try at all, no need to be burdened or to grow tired and weary. You
C:P.14  your ego has made. By choosing to reject yourself you have chosen to  try to make sense of the nightmare rather than to awaken from it.
C:P.17  you, in union with God, can? What makes more sense? To choose to  try again what others have tried and failed to accomplish? Or to
C:1.8  ask yourself what else you had been told and disregarded. You might  try one more thing and then another that you previously would not
C:1.10  would teach you without me. You have tried in countless ways and can  try still again. But you will not succeed. Not because you are not
C:1.10  Not because you are not smart enough. Not because you will not  try hard enough. But because it is impossible. It is impossible to

C:8.14 We have talked now of what is on the surface. Let us  try an experiment.
C:9.19  it not. To live in fear is, indeed, a curse, and one that you would  try to tell yourself is not present in your life. You look to others
C:9.23  all the problems that you face? You see what you do not want and  try to replace it with its opposite. Your life is thus spent in
C:9.38  parts together a whole can be achieved. You speak of balance, and  try to find something for one part of yourself in one place and
C:10.5  to prove to you that it is insurmountable. Many people at this point  try to think these maladies away, and when they do not succeed they
C:10.6  has taught you is to be separate. Be warned that it will constantly  try to interfere as long as you place any merit in what it tells you.
C:11.2  and yet you make of life a recreation of yourself and in so doing  try to prove that “you” are your own source.
C:11.4  you remain willing for the ideas to dwell within you, and you do not  try to shut them out. Realize that the ideas of both success and
C:14.7  to believe in such nonsense have simply refused to make reason  try to fit the unfitable without seeing that an alternative exists.
C:14.19  but since you know not that this can be done or how to do it, you  try to accomplish the “next best thing” and keep it close to you, a
C:14.19  of its proximity. More than this you cannot do, but still you  try. With chains you would bind this separate universe to your own,
C:14.20  that they are afraid of losing love, and even speak of it and  try to alleviate the fear with official commitments, pledges and
C:23.8  is what has caused you to make God over in your own image and to  try to do the same to others. This comes of seeing oneself as an
C:23.26  you have so long sought, you will indeed feel tested and will  try to take control of the learning situation. Not taking control,
C:25.24  action you have taken in the past, you will often meet resistance.  Try to be lighthearted at such times and to remember that if it
C:25.24  times and to remember that if it “doesn't matter,” you might as well  try the new way. Remind yourself that you have nothing to lose. You
C:31.16  that secret, you will still be safe? Are you certain that if you  try something new, you will still be accepted? It is the ego that
T1:3.5  living have been discounted one by one. And yet you dare not  try to live without it. Why? Because of the thoughts of the ego-mind.
T1:3.10  perform miracles. The faith they showed was in their willingness to  try. This little willingness gave way to conviction as miracles
T1:3.11  thus far and send you back to a state of disbelief? Better not to  try at all than to risk trying and failing when such consequences
T1:3.25 In short, you are too afraid, for a variety of reasons, to  try. In short, you are not willing and have many reasons for not
T2:4.5  land. Why, when moving freely through the water would you suddenly  try to move as if on land? The explanation could be as simple as
T3:2.9  of the truth simply have no meaning and no matter how much one might  try to read meaning into the meaningless, it will not be found there.
T3:8.8  If you could relieve the world of suffering you would, but to  try and fail is too heartbreaking. Why should you not be bitter when
T4:1.25  experience of the truth will exclude much that they would want to  try before they give into its pull and settle there. But all have
T4:3.5  the very effort that has continued the cycle of fear. To have to  try to be who you are and to express who you are is the result of the
T4:12.19  that you feel is necessary before you can go on. But I ask you to  try to remember to turn to the new rather than the old each time you
D:1.7  Without this acceptance the personal self must still struggle and  try, prepare and plan. It does not know how to do otherwise. You do
D:2.11  “works for you” is really like a game of chance. You give it a  try, and if the outcome is as you desired it to be you call it a
D:2.12  the same thing again although at times it will. No matter what you  try, however, it is based on this concept of trial and error. No sure
D:15.13 To  try to capture the eternal would be like trying to catch the wind.

D:Day3.34  will be a “one, two, three steps to abundance” answer; but I will  try to address you in an in-between tone, one that will not cause you

W1:6.4  some upsetting thoughts more than to others, remind yourself of the  two cautions stated in the previous lesson:
W1:9.1 This idea obviously follows from the  two preceding ones. But while you may be able to accept it
W1:23.5  be identified and then let go, so that it can be replaced. The first  two steps in this process require your cooperation. The final one
W1:23.5  not. Your images have already been replaced. By taking the first  two steps, you will see that this is so.

W1:25.6 Six practice periods, each of  two minutes duration, are required. Each practice period should begin
W1:26.5 Six practice periods are required in applying today's idea. A full  two minutes should be attempted for each of them, although the time
W1:28.7 We will have six  two minute practice periods today in which the idea for the day is
W1:31.1  with changes as indicated. Generally speaking, the form includes  two aspects, one in which you apply the idea on a more sustained
W1:31.2  Two longer periods of practice with the idea for today are needed,
W1:31.2  During that time, look about you slowly while repeating the idea  two or three times. Then close your eyes and apply the same idea to
W1:32.2  them as different, the practice periods for today will again include  two phases, one involving the world you see outside you and the other
W1:32.3  periods for the morning and evening by repeating the idea for today  two or three times while looking around at the world you see as

W1:61.8  as you reaffirm your function and your only purpose here. These  two practice periods may be longer than the rest if you find them
W1:62.7 Then devote a minute or  two to considering your function and the happiness and release it
W1:63.5  find it easier to let related thoughts come to you in the minute or  two which you should devote to considering this. Do not, however,
W1:64.11  Two forms of shorter practice periods are required. At times, do the
W1:65.1  acceptance of salvation as your only function necessarily entails  two phases: the recognition of salvation as your function and the
W1:66.7  if you do not yet accept the conclusion. It is only if the first  two thoughts are wrong that the conclusion could be false. Let us,
W1:66.9  God has given you your function. We have seen that there are only  two parts of your mind. One is ruled by the ego and is made up of
W1:70.7 We are ready for  two longer practice periods today, each of which should last some ten
W1:71.6  Otherwise your purpose is divided, and you will attempt to follow  two plans for salvation which are diametrically opposed in all ways.

W1:96.1 Although you are One Self, you experience yourself as  two—as both good and evil, loving and hating, mind and body. This
W1:96.3  no meaning cannot be resolved within the framework they are set.  Two selves in conflict could not be resolved, and good and evil have
W1:96.3  self you made can never be your Self, nor can your Self be split in  two and still be what it is and must forever be.
W1:96.4 A mind and body cannot both exist. Make no attempt to reconcile the  two, for one denies the other can be real. If you are physical, your

W1:130.6  would learn today is more than just the lesson that you cannot see  two worlds. It also teaches that the one you see is quite consistent
W1:130.9 It is impossible to see  two worlds. Let me accept the strength God offers me and see no value
W1:130.13 It is impossible to see  two worlds. I seek my freedom and deliverance, and this is not a part
W1:131.8  its own existence and attacks itself is not of Him. He did not make  two minds, with Heaven as the glad effect of one and earth the
W1:131.9 God does not suffer conflict. Nor is His creation split in  two. How could it be His Son could be in hell when God Himself
W1:133.4  you choose between. We have already stressed there are but  two, however many there appear to be.
W1:133.12  the real alternatives, and thus you do not realize there are but  two. And the alternative you think you chose seems fearful and too
W1:133.15 Our  two extended practice periods of 15 minutes will begin with this:
W1:R4.10 After your preparation, merely read each of the  two ideas assigned to you to be reviewed that day. Then close your
W1:R4.11  the day began and spend a quiet moment with it. Then repeat the  two ideas you practice for the day unhurriedly, with time enough to

W1:185.2  very few they are. The world would be completely changed should any  two agree these words express the only thing they want.
W1:185.3  Two minds with one intent become so strong that what they will

M:I.2 To teach is to demonstrate. There are only  two thought systems, and you demonstrate that you believe one or the

M:3.2  not looking where he is going running into an adult “by accident,”  two students who happen to walk home together. These are not chance
M:3.2  Even at the level of the most casual encounter, it is possible for  two people to lose sight of separate interests, if only for a moment.
M:3.4  of teaching is a more sustained relationship in which for a time  two people enter into a fairly intense teaching-learning situation
M:8.6  This is the gift of its Teacher—the understanding that only  two categories are meaningful in sorting out the messages the mind

M:16.4  possible after waking, take your quiet time, continuing a minute or  two after you begin to find it difficult. You may find that the

C:2.7  middle ground for your reality thinking there are more than these  two choices. A life of little joy and little pain is seen as a

C:3.6  the world with a face much like your own, a body with two legs and  two arms, ten fingers and ten toes. And yet you know this was not

C:9.16  in many guises and is given many names, but there are really only  two emotions: one is fear, the other love. Fear is thus the source of
C:9.32  the lesson of the birds of the air or the flowers of the field.  Two thousand years have passed since you were told to observe this
C:9.33  for your own use and allowed it to become the user. With your own  two hands you give away all your happiness and power to that which

C:11.2 You think your source and your Creator are  two separate things, and too seldom remember even that you are not

C:15.1  you desire for yourself? Do you not see how intricately linked these  two desires are? The desire to give and receive specialness is the

C:17.2  about the completion of the universe and the return of heaven. Where  two are joined together can be used rightly here as well as in regard
C:18.8  seemingly trapped upon the screen, viewing everything from the  two eyes of the one projected there. Again, this is but what this
C:18.16  is a first step in what will seem now like an attempt to balance  two separate things, but is really an attempt to unite what you have
C:18.17  is that you dedicate all thought to union. This now must be seen in  two dimensions rather than one. In addition to dedicating thought to
C:19.17  is of a single form, a single entity. There is either one chair or  two. One table or four. Your emphasis has been on quantity, and one
C:20.7  touch, a melding of one into another. The embrace makes one of  two.
C:21.5  way, a way contrary to the language of your heart, and so, like  two people from different countries speaking different languages,
C:21.5  see this in times of emergency or crisis of every kind. And like the  two people from different countries who do not understand each other,
C:21.5  a temporary solidarity is formed through like action. At such times  two strangers who are foreign to one another might recognize that the
C:21.5  the other's “heart is in the right place.” The “right place” with  two people—as with mind and heart—is the place of no division.
C:21.7  these different interpretations as natural. You see that there are  two ways of viewing a situation, even if you do not label one way of
C:21.7  or resolution. You act without unity. And, just as if you were  two people acting on different truths in the same situation, conflict
C:22.4  is that of a needle passing through material. Of itself, it can hold  two pieces of material together. With the addition of thread passed
C:22.7  and of needle and thread to material, is easily seen. In these  two examples, the partnership creates something that did not
C:22.18 Obviously  two kinds of meaning are being talked about. The first we talked of
C:27.11  you now hold of yourself. Just as you can look about and see that no  two bodies on this earth are exactly the same, the Self you are is a
C:29.23  How can one's service deprive anyone else of the right to serve? No  two are alike. Only in God are all the same.
C:31.37  that expects change and growth is that of parent to child. These  two relationships have comprised your ideas of our Father and me as
C:32.1  of who you are not. It is in telling the difference between the  two that you need guidance. You have previously looked to those who
T1:2.13 This response needs to at first be seen in  two parts. An example illustrates. To look at a sunset is to see an
T1:6.9  through the second coming of Christ, the energy that will bridge the  two worlds.

T2:1.2 Treasure is most often seen in one of  two ways—as something valuable to be sought and found or as
T2:1.7 You may still see but  two choices: peace or struggle. But with such an attitude, you would

T2:4.3  you are rather than as who you are, you have not integrated these  two pieces of learning.
T2:4.8  are few among you who have not reacted to the idea of calling with  two sets of feelings and thoughts. One set of thoughts and feelings
T2:4.9 While  two sets of thoughts and feelings exist, the only way to come to
T2:4.9  claim your power is the willingness to move through the conflict of  two opposing sets of thoughts and feelings to the place of unity.
T2:5.6 These last  two calls, the call that appears in the form of a sign and the call
T2:9.7  This is what differentiates needs from wants. This is true in  two senses. It is true in that all needs, from survival needs to
T2:11.1  responsible for this truth. This forgiveness has now extended in  two distinct ways. First in forgiving your Creator for creating you
T2:11.15 It is from these  two separate ideas of relationship that the concept of doing battle
T2:11.15  as you believe that the ego is real, you will feel as if there are  two identities that exist within you and you will see yourself as
T3:1.11  you were to yourself and who you presented yourself to be could be  two completely different selves. Even within the illusion in which
T3:4.8  of Love has accomplished. Now the choice is before you to do one of  two things: to proceed toward love or fear. If you proceed with fear
T3:10.13  knowledge of Spanish would return. For a short while you would have  two languages constantly running through your mind and you would be
T3:11.11 Thus we begin to address the temptations of the human experience.  Two are spoken of in tandem here: The temptation to judge and the
T3:20.4  to request a miracle as a learning device. This learning device had  two aspects. The first was to reveal to you your fears concerning the
T3:21.3 There are no  two sides to the truth. There is not more than one truth. There is
T3:21.20  that it will serve your new purpose. Further, there are even  two aspects to this contradictory seeming answer. One is that your
T3:22.4  to be. This tension will continue if you are unable to integrate  two precepts of this course of learning into your new reality. One is
T4:1.11  to come to know themselves and God indirectly. These are the only  two choices, the choices between truth and illusion, fear and love,
T4:1.14  chosen time and you the chosen people. If the chosen time had been  two thousand years ago, life would have been different since then. If
T4:2.29  bad, but only need be steadily aware that you can only see in one of  two ways—with love or fear.
T4:5.13  at all, you have perhaps thought of the afterlife as having  two sides. Some have thought of this as heaven and hell. Others as
T4:12.5  Two changes of enormous proportions are upon you. The first is the
D:2.1 You are now asked to do  two things simultaneously: To accept the new and to deny the old.
D:2.2  for the acceptance of the true. Although you are called to these  two actions simultaneously—the action of acceptance and the action
D:4.13 The  two patterns, the internal and the external, were created together to
D:5.6 When  two bodies join and joy results from this joining, this is form
D:6.19  by abstaining from the unhealthy habits. You might look now at these  two attitudes and see that they are somewhat silly, but still you
D:6.27  sharing in unity, the All of Everything. So these  two states, the state of form and the state of unity, are both in
D:12.4  dialogue. A dialogue is most often thought of as a discourse between  two or more people and as such is associated with the spoken word.
D:12.11  you still think in the same way as before. I am about to make the  two main points of this discussion: The first is that thinking, with
D:13.2  the sharing of who you are and who you know others to be. There are  two issues of great import contained within this statement, and we
D:Day2.1  well as the Self of unity. It is time for the final merging of the  two into one Self, the elevated Self of form.
D:Day3.34  you expect a flowery answer, and surely not one that will be a “one,  two, three steps to abundance” answer; but I will try to address you
D:Day4.40  grass and the blue sea below? Why are we here but to show you these  two choices? From where else could you so clearly see the choice
D:Day10.2  of form and the Self of union and to, through this reliance, tie the  two together so that there is no seam, no boundary, no remaining
D:Day10.19  met challenges similar to your own. You have been unable to see the  two as the same for you have not realized this sameness in yourself.
D:Day10.20  voice of this dialogue as that belonging to the man Jesus who lived  two thousand years ago. To continue to identify this voice with that
D:Day10.20  to realize that this is the same voice that animated the man Jesus  two thousand years ago will aide you in realizing that this is the
D:Day10.22  of these statements mean. This is the culmination point of these  two great objectives coming together in you and your brothers and
D:Day10.35  partially because of your readiness. It is no accident that these  two aspects of urgency are converging. When your reliance on all that
D:Day15.5  obvious to what could not be observed physically. This practice had  two purposes. The first purpose was the establishment of a new kind
D:Day15.24  Without necessarily realizing it, your consciousness has been in  two places at once without being divided. As you re-enter life on
D:Day16.10  a feeling. Emotions are responses. You have been told there are but  two emotions, love and fear. What this is really saying is that there

D:Day18.2  relationship that occurs with the world. So do each of you. These  two ways also represent God and Christ-consciousness, the extension
D:Day19.12  never found the self. They fear losing the known to the unknown. The  two ways of demonstration make the unknown known. One makes the
D:Day19.16  room for comparison and judgment. Thus it is realistic to see the  two ways as intertwined circles existing in support and harmony with
D:Day22.2  separated the living and the dead, the spiritual and the human into  two states—states that could, at their most basic levels—be seen
D:Day27.2  remaining engaged in life. You have thus begun to experience on  two levels. This has been a goal of the time we have spent together
D:Day27.5  during our mountain top time together the ability to experience on  two levels.
D:Day27.7  a new way of seeing. You might think of this initially as having  two perspectives, an internal and an external perspective, a human
D:Day27.9 The  two levels of experience which you have been participating in are the
D:Day27.13  are is also a constant within the aspect of separation. Merge the  two, however, into one level of experience and the whole formula
D:Day27.14 This is what we move toward as we practice participating in  two levels of experience simultaneously. We practice experiencing the
D:Day28.13 Depending on the circumstances of your life, one of these  two attitudes will have a reverse side that will have a greater hold
D:Day28.15 Most people feel at least some combination of these  two attitudes, but will find that one is prevalent. You must now get
D:Day28.19  on by changing your experience of time to one of experiencing  two levels of “time.” Our “time” on the mountain would be more
D:Day28.26 Presently it is as if you follow  two threads, the thread that has led you to the mountain and the
D:Day28.26  you have not removed yourself. Now you must begin to weave these  two threads together into the tapestry of your new life. This weaving
D:Day28.26  life. This weaving will take place as you continue to intertwine the  two experiences that you are simultaneously holding within your

D:Day29.5  you, has been a part of the process that has allowed you access to  two levels of experience. It is your access to two levels of
D:Day29.5  allowed you access to two levels of experience. It is your access to  two levels of experience—the experience of wholeness and the
D:Day30.2 The  two levels of experience we have spoken of might be seen as the
D:Day30.4  without joining, thus the commonly known injunction of “where  two or more are joined together.” If you would think of this in terms
D:Day30.4  you would see that knower and known are one. You would see that  two or more are needed in order for knowing to occur. To not know
D:Day30.4  would be to be in a state of nothingness. Thus the joining of  two or more are needed in order for wholeness to be known and thus to
D:Day31.1  and about relationship. Let us consider this by considering the  two levels of experience—that of the mountain top experience—and
D:Day31.8  To know the One Self within the individuated Self is to join the  two. The two are thus joined in the relationship of experience.
D:Day31.8  the One Self within the individuated Self is to join the two. The  two are thus joined in the relationship of experience. Experience is
D:Day32.12  a negation of either the self or God that occurs when these  two concepts—concepts of the self and of God—cannot be reconciled

D:Day34.1  wholeness includes seeing the opposites that seem to exist at these  two ends of the same spectrum. If the new way of seeing the Self just
D:Day37.11  or individuation, is only possible in union and relationship.  Two separate numbers, with no relationship, no interaction, no
D:Day38.13  because we are in union and relationship with each other. We are not  two beings who are separate but relating in union. We are each
D:Day39.12  one thing and another. In this instance it is the connection between  two individuated beings in union and relationship. You and me. In
